AKEEGA is a combination of niraparib, a poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor, and abiraterone acetate, a CYP17 inhibitor indicated with prednisone for the treatment of adult patients with: deleterious or suspected deleterious BRCA2 -mutated ( BRCA2 m) metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC). deleterious or suspected deleterious BRCA -mutated ( BRCA m) metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Select patients for therapy based on an FDA-approved test for AKEEGA. ( 1 , 2.1 )

Dosage

DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION BRCA2 m mCSPC: The recommended dosage of AKEEGA is 200 mg niraparib/1,000 mg abiraterone acetate orally once daily in combination with 5 mg prednisone daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. ( 2.2 ) BRCA m mCRPC : The recommended dosage of AKEEGA is 200 mg niraparib/1,000 mg abiraterone acetate orally once daily in combination with 10 mg prednisone daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. ( 2.2 ) Patients receiving AKEEGA should also receive a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analog concurrently or should have had bilateral orchiectomy. ( 2.2 ) Take AKEEGA on an empty stomach at least one hour before or two hours after food. ( 2.2 ) For adverse reactions, consider interruption of treatment, dose reduction, or dose discontinuation. ( 2.3 ) 2.1 Patient Selection Select patients for the treatment of mCSPC with AKEEGA based on the presence of a BRCA2 gene alteration [see Clinical Studies (14.1) ] . Select patients for the treatment of mCRPC with AKEEGA based on the presence of a BRCA gene alteration [see Clinical Studies (14.2) ] . Information on FDA-approved tests is available at: http://www.fda.gov/CompanionDiagnostics. 2.2 Recommended Dosage BRCA2- mutated ( BRCA2 m) Metastatic Castration-Sensitive Prostate Cancer (mCSPC) The recommended dosage of AKEEGA is 200 mg niraparib/1,000 mg abiraterone acetate orally once daily in combination with 5 mg prednisone once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. BRCA -mutated ( BRCA m) Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC) The recommended dosage of AKEEGA is 200 mg niraparib/1,000 mg abiraterone acetate orally once daily in combination with 10 mg prednisone once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients receiving AKEEGA should also receive a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analog concurrently or should have had bilateral orchiectomy. Take AKEEGA on an empty stomach at least one hour before or two hours after food. Swallow tablets whole with water. Do not break, crush, or chew tablets. If a patient misses a dose, instruct patients to take the dose as soon as possible on the same day and resume their next dose at the normal schedule the following day. 2.3 Dosage Modification for Adverse Reactions The recommended dosage modifications for AKEEGA are provided in Table 1. Treatment with AKEEGA should not be reinitiated until the toxicity has resolved to Grade 1 or baseline. If the toxicity is attributed to one component of AKEEGA, the other component of AKEEGA may be continued as a single agent at the current dose until the adverse reaction resolves and AKEEGA can be resumed (see Table 1 ). Table 1: Dosage Modifications for Adverse Reactions Adverse Reaction Severity Dosage Modification Myelosuppression [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] Hemoglobin <8 g/dL Withhold AKEEGA and monitor blood counts weekly. When hemoglobin returns to ≥9 g/dL, resume at the reduced dose of AKEEGA 100 mg/1,000 mg once daily and monitor blood counts weekly for 28 days and as clinically indicated. Permanently discontinue AKEEGA if hemoglobin has not returned to acceptable levels within 28 days of the dose interruption period or if the patient has already undergone dose reduction to 100 mg/1,000 mg once daily. If myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia (MDS/AML) is confirmed, discontinue AKEEGA [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]. Platelet count <100,000/mcL First occurrence: Withhold AKEEGA for a maximum of 28 days and monitor blood counts weekly until platelet counts return to ≥100,000/mcL. Resume AKEEGA at same or the reduced dose of 100 mg/1,000 mg once daily. If platelet count is <75,000/mcL, resume at the reduced dose of AKEEGA 100 mg/1,000 mg once daily. Second occurrence: Withhold AKEEGA for a maximum of 28 days and monitor blood counts weekly until platelet counts return to ≥100,000/mcL. Resume at the reduced dose of AKEEGA 100 mg/1,000 mg once daily. Permanently discontinue AKEEGA if the platelet count has not returned to acceptable levels within 28 days of the dose interruption period or if the patient has already undergone dose reduction to 100 mg/1,000 mg once daily. Neutrophil <1,000/mcL Withhold AKEEGA and monitor blood counts weekly. When neutrophil counts return to ≥1,500/mcL, resume at the reduced dose of AKEEGA 100 mg/1,000 mg once daily and monitor blood counts weekly for 28 days and as clinically indicated. Permanently discontinue AKEEGA if neutrophils have not returned to acceptable levels within 28 days of the dose interruption period or if the patient has already undergone dose reduction to 100 mg/1,000 mg once daily. Hematologic adverse reaction requiring transfusion Consider platelet transfusion for patients with platelet count ≤10,000/mcL. If there are other risk factors such as coadministration of anticoagulation or antiplatelet drugs, consider interrupting these drugs and/or transfusion at a higher platelet count. Resume at the reduced dose of AKEEGA 100 mg/1,000 mg once daily. Hepatotoxicity [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4) ] ALT and/or AST greater than 5 × ULN or total bilirubin greater than 3 × ULN Withhold AKEEGA and closely monitor liver function. Permanently discontinue AKEEGA if: ALT or AST ≥ 20 times the ULN – OR– ALT > 3 × ULN and total bilirubin > 2 × ULN in the absence of biliary obstruction or other causes responsible for the concurrent elevation -OR- Hepatotoxicity recurs at the reduced dose 100 mg/500 mg. When AST and ALT resolves to less ≤ 2.5 × ULN and total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × ULN, AKEEGA may be resumed at the reduced dose of 100 mg/500 mg once daily. When resumed, monitor serum transaminases every two weeks for three months, monthly thereafter, and as clinically indicated. Other non-hematological adverse reactions that persist despite medical management [see Warnings and Precautions (5) and Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] Grade 3 or 4 Discontinue AKEEGA in patients who develop hypertensive crisis or other severe cardiovascular adverse reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)]. Withhold AKEEGA until resolution of adverse reaction or for a maximum of 28 days. If resolves in 28 days or less, AKEEGA may be resumed at the reduced dose. Permanently discontinue AKEEGA if adverse reaction(s) has not resolved after 28 days or Grade 3 or 4 adverse reaction reoccurs after dose reduction.

Warnings

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Myelodysplastic Syndrome/Acute Myeloid Leukemia (MDS/AML) : MDS/AML, including a case with fatal outcome, has been observed in patients treated with AKEEGA. Monitor patients for hematological toxicity and discontinue if MDS/AML is confirmed. ( 5.1 ) Myelosuppression: Test complete blood counts weekly for the first month, every two weeks for the next two months, monthly for the remainder of the first year, then every other month, and as clinically indicated. ( 2.3 , 5.2 ) Hypokalemia, Fluid Retention, and Cardiovascular Adverse Reactions: Monitor patients for hypertension, hypokalemia, and fluid retention at least weekly for the first two months, then once a month. Closely monitor patients whose underlying medical conditions might be compromised by increases in blood pressure, hypokalemia, or fluid retention. Control hypertension and correct hypokalemia before and during treatment with AKEEGA. ( 5.3 ) Hepatotoxicity: Can be severe and fatal. Monitor liver function and modify, interrupt, or discontinue treatment as recommended. ( 2.3 , 5.4 ) Adrenocortical insufficiency : Monitor for symptoms and signs of adrenocortical insufficiency. Increased dosage of corticosteroids may be indicated before, during and after stressful situations. ( 5.5 ) Hypoglycemia: Severe hypoglycemia has been reported when abiraterone acetate, a component of AKEEGA, was administered to patients receiving medications containing thiazolidinediones (including pioglitazone) or repaglinide. Monitor blood glucose in patients with diabetes during and assess if antidiabetic agent dose modifications are required. ( 5.6 ) Increased fractures and mortality in combination with radium Ra 223 dichloride : Use of AKEEGA plus prednisone in combination with radium Ra 223 dichloride is not recommended. ( 5.7 ) Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome (PRES): PRES has been observed in patients treated with niraparib, a component of AKEEGA. Discontinue AKEEGA if PRES is confirmed. ( 5.8 ) Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: AKEEGA can cause fetal harm. Advise males with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception. ( 5.9 , 8.1 , 8.3 ) 5.1 Myelodysplastic Syndrome/Acute Myeloid Leukemia AKEEGA may cause myelodysplastic syndrome/acute myeloid leukemia (MDS/AML). In the individual AMPLITUDE and MAGNITUDE studies, MDS or AML, including cases with fatal outcomes, were reported in 0.6% (2/347) and 0.5% (1/212) of patients treated with AKEEGA plus prednisone, respectively. All patients in other tumor types treated with niraparib, a component of AKEEGA, who developed secondary MDS/cancer-therapy-related AML had received previous chemotherapy with platinum agents and/or other DNA-damaging agents, including radiotherapy. For suspected MDS/AML or prolonged hematological toxicities, refer the patient to a hematologist for further evaluation. Discontinue AKEEGA if MDS/AML is confirmed. 5.2 Myelosuppression AKEEGA may cause myelosuppression (anemia, thrombocytopenia, or neutropenia). In AMPLITUDE, Grade 3–4 anemia, neutropenia, and thrombocytopenia were reported, respectively in 29%, 10%, and 4.9% of patients receiving AKEEGA. Overall, 25% of patients with anemia required a red blood cell transfusion, including 15% who required more than one transfusion. Discontinuation due to anemia occurred in 1.2% of patients. In MAGNITUDE Cohort 1, Grade 3–4 anemia, thrombocytopenia, and neutropenia were reported, respectively in 28%, 8%, and 7% of patients receiving AKEEGA. Overall, 27% of patients with anemia required a red blood cell transfusion, including 19.5% who required more than one transfusion. Discontinuation due to anemia occurred in 3% of patients. Monitor complete blood counts weekly during the first month of AKEEGA treatment, every two weeks for the next two months, monthly for the remainder of the first year and then every other month, and as clinically indicated. Do not start AKEEGA until patients have adequately recovered from hematologic toxicity caused by previous therapy. If hematologic toxicities do not resolve within 28 days following interruption, discontinue AKEEGA and refer the patient to a hematologist for further investigations, including bone marrow analysis and blood sample for cytogenetics [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) ] . 5.3 Hypokalemia, Fluid Retention, and Cardiovascular Adverse Reactions AKEEGA may cause hypokalemia and fluid retention as a consequence of increased mineralocorticoid levels resulting from CYP17 inhibition [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.1) ] . In post-marketing experience, QT prolongation and Torsades de Pointes have been observed in patients who develop hypokalemia while taking abiraterone acetate, a component of AKEEGA. Hypertension and hypertensive crisis have also been reported in patients treated with niraparib, a component of AKEEGA. In AMPLITUDE, which used prednisone 5 mg daily in combination with AKEEGA, Grades 3–4 hypokalemia was detected in 9% of patients on the AKEEGA arm, and Grades 3–4 hypertension was observed in 30% of patients on the AKEEGA arm. In MAGNITUDE Cohort 1, which used prednisone 10 mg daily in combination with AKEEGA, Grade 3–4 hypokalemia was detected in 2.7% of patients on the AKEEGA arm and Grade 3–4 hypertension was observed in 14% of patients on the AKEEGA arm. Monitor patients for hypertension, hypokalemia, and fluid retention at least weekly for the first two months, then once a month. Closely monitor patients whose underlying medical conditions might be compromised by increases in blood pressure, hypokalemia, or fluid retention, such as those with heart failure, recent myocardial infarction, cardiovascular disease, or ventricular arrhythmia. Control hypertension and correct hypokalemia before and during treatment with AKEEGA. Discontinue AKEEGA in patients who develop hypertensive crisis or other severe cardiovascular adverse reactions. The safety of AKEEGA in patients with New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class II to IV heart failure has not been established because these patients were excluded from AMPLITUDE and MAGNITUDE. 5.4 Hepatotoxicity AKEEGA may cause hepatotoxicity. Hepatotoxicity in patients receiving abiraterone acetate, a component of AKEEGA, has been reported in clinical trials. In post-marketing experience, there have been abiraterone acetate-associated severe hepatic toxicity, including fulminant hepatitis, acute liver failure, and deaths. In AMPLITUDE, Grade 3–4 ALT or AST increases (at least 5 × ULN) were reported in 1.9% and 1.3% of patients, respectively. In MAGNITUDE Cohort 1, Grade 3–4 ALT or AST increases (at least 5 × ULN) were reported in 1.8% and 0.9% of patients, respectively. The safety of AKEEGA in patients with moderate or severe hepatic impairment has not been established as these patients were excluded from AMPLITUDE and MAGNITUDE. Measure serum transaminases (ALT and AST) and bilirubin levels prior to starting treatment with AKEEGA, every two weeks for the first three months of treatment and monthly thereafter. Promptly measure serum total bilirubin, AST, and ALT if clinical symptoms or signs suggestive of hepatotoxicity develop. Elevations of AST, ALT, or bilirubin from the patient's baseline should prompt more frequent monitoring and may require dosage modifications [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) ]. Permanently discontinue AKEEGA for patients who develop a concurrent elevation of ALT greater than 3 × ULN and total bilirubin greater than 2 × ULN in the absence of biliary obstruction or other causes responsible for the concurrent elevation, or in patients who develop ALT or AST ≥20 × ULN at any time after receiving AKEEGA. 5.5 Adrenocortical Insufficiency AKEEGA may cause adrenal insufficiency. Adrenocortical insufficiency has been reported in clinical trials in patients receiving abiraterone acetate, a component of AKEEGA, in combination with prednisone, following interruption of daily steroids and/or with concurrent infection or stress.

Drug interactions

DRUG INTERACTIONS Strong CYP3A4 Inducers: Avoid coadministration. ( 7.1 ) CYP2D6 Substrates: Avoid coadministration of AKEEGA with CYP2D6 substrates for which minimal changes in concentration may lead to serious toxicities. If alternative treatments cannot be used, consider a dose reduction of the concomitant CYP2D6 substrate. ( 7.2 ) 7.1 Effect of Other Drugs on AKEEGA Effect of CYP3A4 Inducers Avoid coadministration with strong CYP3A4 inducers [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] . Abiraterone is a substrate of CYP3A4. Strong CYP3A4 inducers may decrease abiraterone concentrations [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ], which may reduce the effectiveness of abiraterone. 7.2 Effects of AKEEGA on Other Drugs CYP2D6 Substrates Avoid coadministration unless otherwise recommended in the Prescribing Information for CYP2D6 substrates for which minimal changes in concentration may lead to serious toxicities. If alternative treatments cannot be used, consider a dose reduction of the concomitant CYP2D6 substrate drug. Abiraterone is a CYP2D6 moderate inhibitor. AKEEGA increases the concentration of CYP2D6 substrates [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ], which may increase the risk of adverse reactions related to these substrates. CYP2C8 Substrates Monitor patients for signs of toxicity related to a CYP2C8 substrate for which a minimal change in plasma concentration may lead to serious or life-threatening adverse reactions. Abiraterone is a CYP2C8 inhibitor. AKEEGA increases the concentration of CYP2C8 substrates [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ], which may increase the risk of adverse reactions related to these substrates.
