  • Serious ARs occurred in 12% of patients who received ORSERDU1

    • Serious ARs in >1% of patients who received ORSERDU were musculoskeletal pain (1.7%) and nausea (1.3%)1
  • Nausea was a common AR1:

    • The majority had Grade 1 or 2; no Grade 41
    • Low discontinuation rate due to nausea: 1.3%1
    • Low antiemetic use across arms2:
      • 8% with ORSERDU

      • 4% with fulvestrant

      • 10% with AIs

  • Taking ORSERDU with food can help reduce nausea1

  • Fatal ARs occurred in 1.7% of patients who received ORSERDU1||

*ARs were evaluated in patients with or without ESR1-mutated mBC (N=467) and were graded using NCI CTCAE version 5.0.1,3

SOC endocrine monotherapy included either fulvestrant, anastrozole, letrozole, or exemestane.1

Only includes Grade 3 ARs.1

§Includes other related terms.1

||Fatal ARs included cardiac arrest, septic shock, diverticulitis, and unknown cause (1 patient each).1

ARs that resulted in permanent discontinuation of ORSERDU in >1% of patients were musculoskeletal pain (1.7%) and nausea (1.3%).1

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Warnings and Precautions

  • 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. Monitor lipid profile prior to starting and periodically while taking ORSERDU.

  • Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: Based on findings in animals and its mechanism of action, ORSERDU can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. 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.

Adverse Reactions

  • Serious adverse reactions occurred in 12% of patients who received ORSERDU. Serious adverse reactions in >1% of patients who received ORSERDU were musculoskeletal pain (1.7%) and nausea (1.3%). Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 1.7% of patients who received ORSERDU, including cardiac arrest, septic shock, diverticulitis, and unknown cause (one patient each).

  • The most common adverse reactions (≥10%), including laboratory abnormalities, of ORSERDU were musculoskeletal pain (41%), nausea (35%), increased cholesterol (30%), increased AST (29%), increased triglycerides (27%), fatigue (26%), decreased hemoglobin (26%), vomiting (19%), increased ALT (17%), decreased sodium (16%), increased creatinine (16%), decreased appetite (15%), diarrhea (13%), headache (12%), constipation (12%), abdominal pain (11%), hot flush (11%), and dyspepsia (10%).

Drug Interactions

  • Concomitant use with CYP3A4 inducers and/or inhibitors: Avoid concomitant use of strong or moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors with ORSERDU. Avoid concomitant use of strong or moderate CYP3A4 inducers with ORSERDU.

Use in Specific Populations

  • Lactation: Advise lactating women to not breastfeed during treatment with ORSERDU and for 1 week after the last dose.

  • Hepatic Impairment: Avoid use of ORSERDU in patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh C). Reduce the dose of ORSERDU in patients with moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh B).

The safety and effectiveness of ORSERDU in pediatric patients have not been established.

INDICATION

ORSERDU (elacestrant) 345 mg tablets are 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.
