Standard Dose

2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION Recommended Dosage: 45 mg orally once daily with or without food. ( 2.2 ) 2.1 Patient Selection Select patients for the first-line treatment of metastatic NSCLC with VIZIMPRO based on the presence of an EGFR exon 19 deletion or exon 21 L858R substitution mutation in tumor specimens. Information on FDA-approved tests for the detection of EGFR mutations in NSCLC is available at: http://www.fda.gov/CompanionDiagnostics. 2.2 Recommended Dosage The recommended dosage of VIZIMPRO is 45 mg taken orally once daily, until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs. VIZIMPRO can be taken with or without food [see Dosage and Administration (2.4) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] . Take VIZIMPRO the same time each day. If the patient vomits or misses a dose, do not take an additional dose or make up a missed dose but continue with the next scheduled dose. 2.3 Dosage Modifications for Adverse Reactions Reduce the dose of VIZIMPRO for adverse reactions as described in Table 1. Dosage modifications for specific adverse reactions are provided in Table 2. Table 1.

VIZIMPRO Dosage Modifications for Adverse Reactions Adverse Reaction Severity National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Version 4.03. Dosage Modification Interstitial lung disease (ILD) [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] Any Grade • Permanently discontinue VIZIMPRO. Diarrhea [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] Grade 2 • Withhold VIZIMPRO until recovery to less than or equal to Grade 1; then resume VIZIMPRO at the same dose level. • For recurrent Grade 2 diarrhea, withhold until recovery to less than or equal to Grade 1; then resume VIZIMPRO at a reduced dose. Grade 3 or 4 • Withhold VIZIMPRO until recovery to less than or equal to Grade 1; then resume VIZIMPRO at a reduced dose. Dermatologic Adverse Reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ] Grade 2 • Withhold VIZIMPRO for persistent dermatologic adverse reactions; upon recovery to less than or equal to Grade 1, resume VIZIMPRO at the same dose level. • For recurrent persistent Grade 2 dermatologic adverse reactions, withhold until recovery to less than or equal to Grade 1; then resume VIZIMPRO at a reduced dose. Grade 3 or 4 • Withhold VIZIMPRO until recovery to less than or equal to Grade 1; then resume VIZIMPRO at a reduced dose. Other Grade 3 or 4 • Withhold VIZIMPRO until recovery to less than or equal to Grade 2; then resume VIZIMPRO at a reduced dose. 2.4 Dosage Modifications for Acid-Reducing Agents Avoid the concomitant use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) while taking VIZIMPRO. As an alternative to PPIs, use locally-acting antacids or if using an histamine 2 (H2)-receptor antagonist, administer VIZIMPRO at least 6 hours before or 10 hours after taking an H2-receptor antagonist [see Drug Interactions (7.1) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] .

Warnings and cautions 5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS • Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD): Permanently discontinue VIZIMPRO if ILD is confirmed. ( 5.1 ) • Diarrhea: Withhold and reduce the dose of VIZIMPRO based on the severity. ( 2.3 , 5.2 ) • Dermatologic Adverse Reactions: Withhold and reduce the dose of VIZIMPRO based on the severity. ( 2.3 , 5.3 ) • Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: VIZIMPRO can cause fetal harm. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception. ( 5.4 , 8.1 , 8.3 ) 5.1 Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) Severe and fatal ILD/pneumonitis occurred in patients treated with VIZIMPRO and occurred in 0.5% of the 394 VIZIMPRO-treated patients; 0.3% of cases were fatal. Monitor patients for pulmonary symptoms indicative of ILD/pneumonitis. Withhold VIZIMPRO and promptly investigate for ILD in patients who present with worsening of respiratory symptoms which may be indicative of ILD (e.g., dyspnea, cough, and fever). Permanently discontinue VIZIMPRO if ILD is confirmed [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] . 5.2 Diarrhea Severe and fatal diarrhea occurred in patients treated with VIZIMPRO. Diarrhea occurred in 86% of the 394 VIZIMPRO-treated patients; Grade 3 or 4 diarrhea was reported in 11% of patients and 0.3% of cases were fatal. Withhold VIZIMPRO for Grade 2 or greater diarrhea until recovery to

Monitoring

• 5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS • Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD): Permanently discontinue VIZIMPRO if ILD is confirmed.
• ( 5.1 ) • Diarrhea: Withhold and reduce the dose of VIZIMPRO based on the severity.
• ( 2.3 , 5.2 ) • Dermatologic Adverse Reactions: Withhold and reduce the dose of VIZIMPRO based on the severity.

Interaction Notes

• 7 DRUG INTERACTIONS • Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs): Avoid use with VIZIMPRO; use locally-acting antacids or H2-receptor antagonist; administer VIZIMPRO at least 6 hours before or 10 hours after H2-receptor antagonist.
• ( 2.4 , 7.1 ) • CYP2D6 Substrates: Avoid concomitant use with VIZIMPRO where minimal increases in concentration of the CYP2D6 substrate may lead to serious or life-threatening toxicities.
• ( 7.2 ) 7.1 Effect of Other Drugs on VIZIMPRO Concomitant use with a PPI decreases dacomitinib concentrations, which may reduce VIZIMPRO efficacy.
• Avoid the concomitant use of PPIs with VIZIMPRO.
