elacestrant 86 MG Oral Tablet [Orserdu] — Anti-estrogens. INDICATIONS AND USAGE ORSERDU is indicated for the treatment of postmenopausal women or adult men with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive, human…
Elacestrant has several drug interactions that can affect its exposure and effectiveness.
majorstrong or moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors — increased exposure to elacestrant, which may increase the risk of adverse reactions
majorstrong or moderate CYP3A4 inducers — decreased exposure to elacestrant, which may decrease effectiveness
moderateP-gp substrates — increased concentrations of P-gp substrate, which may increase adverse reactions
moderateBCRP substrates — increased plasma concentrations of BCRP substrate, which may increase adverse reactions
Indications
INDICATIONS AND USAGE ORSERDU is indicated for the treatment of postmenopausal women or adult men with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)‑negative, ESR1 -mutated advanced or metastatic breast cancer with disease progression following at least one line of endocrine therapy. ORSERDU is an estrogen receptor antagonist indicated for: treatment of postmenopausal women or adult men, with ER-positive, HER2-negative, ESR1 -mutated advanced or metastatic breast cancer with disease progression following at least one line of endocrine therapy ( 1 )
Dosage
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION Select patients for treatment with ORSERDU based on the presence of ESR1 mutations. ( 2.1 ) The recommended dosage of ORSERDU is one 345 mg tablet taken orally, once daily, with food ( 2.2 ) Dose interruption, reduction, or permanent discontinuation may be required due to adverse reactions. ( 2.3 ) 2.1 Patient Selection Select patients for treatment of ER-positive, HER2-negative advanced or metastatic breast cancer with ORSERDU based on the presence of ESR1 mutation(s) in plasma specimen using an FDA-approved test [see Indications and Usage ( 1 ) and Clinical Studies ( 14 )] . Information on FDA-approved tests for detection of ESR1 mutations in breast cancer is available at: http://www.fda.gov/CompanionDiagnostics. 2.2 Recommended Dosage The recommended dosage of ORSERDU is 345 mg taken orally with food once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs. Take ORSERDU at approximately the same time each day. Take with food to reduce nausea and vomiting [see Adverse Reactions ( 6.1 )] . Swallow ORSERDU tablet(s) whole. Do not chew, crush, or split prior to swallowing. Do not take any ORSERDU tablets that are broken, cracked, or that look damaged. If a dose is missed for more than 6 hours or vomiting occurs, skip the dose and take the next dose the following day at its regularly scheduled time. 2.3 Dosage Modifications for Adverse Reactions The recommended dose reduction levels for adverse reactions are listed in Table 1 : Table 1: ORSERDU Dose Reduction Levels for Adverse Reactions 1 If further dose reduction below 172 mg once daily is required, permanently discontinue ORSERDU. Dose Reduction Dosage Number and Strength of Tablets First-dose reduction 258 mg once daily Three 86 mg tablets Second-dose reduction 172 mg once daily 1 Two 86 mg tablets Recommended dosage modifications of ORSERDU for adverse reactions are provided in Table 2 [see Adverse Reactions ( 6.1 )] . Table 2: ORSERDU Dosage Modification Guidelines for Adverse Reactions Severity Dosage Modification Grade 1 Continue ORSERDU at current dose level. Grade 2 Consider interruption of ORSERDU until recovery to Grade ≤ 1 or baseline. Then resume ORSERDU at the same dose level. Grade 3 Interrupt ORSERDU until recovery to Grade ≤ 1 or baseline. Then resume ORSERDU at the next lower dose level. If the Grade 3 toxicity recurs, interrupt ORSERDU until recovery to Grade ≤ 1 or baseline. Then resume ORSERDU reduced by another dose level. Grade 4 Interrupt ORSERDU until recovery to Grade ≤ 1 or baseline. Then resume ORSERDU reduced by one dose level. If a Grade 4 or intolerable adverse reaction recurs, permanently discontinue ORSERDU. 2.4 Dosage Modifications for Use with Concomitant CYP3A4 Inducers and Inhibitors Avoid concomitant use of ORSERDU with strong or moderate CYP3A4 inducers and inhibitors [see Drug Interactions ( 7.1 )] . 2.5 Dosage Modifications for Hepatic Impairment Avoid use of ORSERDU in patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh C). Reduce the ORSERDU dosage to 258 mg once daily for patients with moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh B). No dosage adjustment is recommended for patients with mild hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh A) [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] .
Warnings
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Dyslipidemia: ORSERDU may cause hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia. Monitor lipid profile prior to starting treatment and periodically thereafter. ( 5.1 ) Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: ORSERDU can cause fetal harm. Advise of the potential risk to a fetus and to use effective contraception. ( 5.2 , 8.1 , 8.3 ) 5.1 Dyslipidemia Hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia occurred in patients taking ORSERDU at an incidence of 30% and 27%, respectively. The incidence of Grade 3 and 4 hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia were 0.9% and 2.2%, respectively [see Adverse Reactions ( 6.1 )] . Monitor lipid profile prior to starting and periodically while taking ORSERDU. 5.2 Embryo-Fetal Toxicity Based on findings in animals and its mechanism of action, ORSERDU can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. Administration of elacestrant to pregnant rats resulted in adverse developmental outcomes, including embryo-fetal mortality and structural abnormalities, at maternal exposures below the recommended dose based on area under the curve (AUC). Advise pregnant women and females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to a fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with ORSERDU and for 1 week after the last dose. Advise male patients with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with ORSERDU and for 1 week after the last dose [see Use in Specific Populations ( 8.1 , 8.3 ) and Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.1 )] .

Mechanism of action
Mechanism of Action Elacestrant is an estrogen receptor antagonist that binds to estrogen receptor-alpha (ERα). In ER-positive (ER+) HER2-negative (HER2-) breast cancer cells, elacestrant inhibited 17β-estradiol mediated cell proliferation at concentrations inducing degradation of ERα protein mediated through proteasomal pathway. Elacestrant demonstrated in vitro and in vivo antitumor activity including in ER+ HER2- breast cancer models resistant to fulvestrant and cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitors and those harboring estrogen receptor 1 gene ( ESR1 ) mutations.
