Pharmacology/ Pharmacokinetics:
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
1. Mechanism of Action Umbralisib inhibits multiple kinases. In biochemical and cell-based assays, umbralisib inhibited PI3Kd and casein kinase CK1e. PI3Kd is expressed in normal and malignant B-cells; CK1e has been implicated in the pathogenesis of cancer cells, including lymphoid malignancies.
2. Pharmacodynamics Exposure-Response Relationships - An exposure-response relationship between umbralisib and overall response rate was observed in patients with FL. The time course of pharmacodynamic response is unknown.
3. Pharmacokinetics- Umbralisib exposures increased proportionally over a dose range of 200 mg to 1000 mg once daily (0.25 to 1.25 times the recommended dosage). A 6.4- and 3.8-fold accumulation of AUC and Cmax of umbralisib, respectively, were observed at the recommended dosage.
The mean (CV%) steady-state AUC and Cmax were 141 µg*h/mL (46%) and 7.3 µg/mL (39%), respectively, at the recommended dosage.
Absorption - The median time to reach peak plasma concentration (tmax) is approximately 4 hours.
Effect of Food Administration of a single dose of UKONIQ with a high-fat, high calorie meal (approximately 917 calories with 171 calories from protein, 232 calories from carbohydrate, and 502 calories from fat) in healthy subjects increased AUC and Cmax of umbralisib by 61% and 115%, respectively, relative to fasting conditions.
Distribution - The mean (CV%) apparent central volume of distribution of umbralisib is 312 (185%) L. The plasma protein binding is =99.7% and was independent of concentration between 2 and 5 µM. Mean blood-to-plasma ratio is 0.6.
Elimination - The mean (CV%) apparent clearance of umbralisib is 15.5 (52%) L/h with effective half-life of 91 (42%) hours.
Metabolism - Umbralisib is metabolized by CYP2C9, CYP3A4, and CYP1A2 in vitro.
Excretion - Approximately 81% of the dose was recovered in feces (17% unchanged) and 3% in urine (0.02% unchanged) following a single radiolabeled dose of umbralisib 800 mg to healthy subjects.
Specific Populations No clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of umbralisib were observed based on age (18 to 87 years old), sex, race (White and Black), body weight (44 to 165 kg), mild hepatic impairment (total bilirubin = ULN and AST > ULN or total bilirubin >1 to 1.5 × ULN and any AST), or mild and moderate renal impairment (CLcr 30 to 89 mL/min, estimated by the Cockcroft-Gault equation).
The effect of other race/ethnicity, severe renal impairment (CLcr 15 to 29 mL/min) and dialysis, or moderate to severe hepatic impairment (total bilirubin = ULN and AST > ULN or total bilirubin > ULN and any AST) on umbralisib pharmacokinetics is unknown.
Drug Interaction Studies - Clinical Studies No clinically significant differences in umbralisib pharmacokinetics were observed when used concomitantly with omeprazole, a proton pump inhibitor.
Coadministration of UKONIQ with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors and inducers or moderate CYP2C9 inhibitors and inducers have not been studied. Coadministration of UKONIQ with sensitive substrates of CYP3A4, CYP2C8, CYP2C9 and CYP2C19, or P-gp substrates have not been fully characterized.
Pregnancy and lactation:
8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS
8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary - Based on findings from animal studies and the mechanism of action], UKONIQ can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman.
Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus.
In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively.
2 Lactation Risk Summary There are no data on the presence of umbralisib in human milk or the effects on the breastfed child or milk production.
Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions from umbralisib in the breastfed child, advise women not to breastfeed during treatment with UKONIQ and for one month after the last dose
3. Females and Males of Reproductive Potential - UKONIQ may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman.
Pregnancy Testing -Verify pregnancy status in females of reproductive potential prior to initiating UKONIQ.
Contraception- Females Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with UKONIQ and for one month after the last dose.
Males- Advise males with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with UKONIQ and for one month after the last dose. Infertility Males Based on the findings from mice and dogs, UKONIQ may impair male fertility .
4. Pediatric Use Safety and effectiveness of UKONIQ have not been established in pediatric patients.
8.5 Geriatric Use Of the 221 patients with MZL or FL who received UKONIQ in clinical studies, 56% of patients were 65 years of age and older, while 19% were 75 years of age and older.
No overall differences in effectiveness or pharmacokinetics were observed between these patients and younger patients. In patients 65 years of age and older, 23% experienced serious adverse reactions compared to 12% in patients younger than 65 years of age.
There was a higher incidence of infectious serious adverse reactions in patients 65 years of age or older (13%) compared to patients younger than 65 years of age (4%).
6. Renal Impairment -No dose adjustment is recommended in patients with mild or moderate renal impairment (creatinine clearance [CLcr] 30 to 89 mL/min estimated by Cockcroft-Gault equation) . UKONIQ has not been studied in patients with severe renal impairment ([CLcr] < 30 mL/min).
7. Hepatic Impairment- No dose adjustment is recommended for patients with mild hepatic impairment (total bilirubin = upper limit of normal [ULN] and AST > ULN or total bilirubin >1 to 1.5 × ULN and any AST
