`is available at: hgpz//www.fda.gov/CompanionDiagnostics.
`
`2.2
`
`Recommended Dose — NSCLC
`
`The recommended daily dose of TARCEVA for NSCLC is ISO mg taken on an empty stomach, i.e., at least one hour before or two
`hours after the ingestion of food. Treatment should continue until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs.
`
`2.3
`
`Recommended Dose - Pancreatic Cancer
`
`The recommended daily dose of TARCEVA for pancreatic cancer is 100 mg taken once daily in combination with gemcitabine. Take
`TARCEVA on an empty stomach, ie, at least one hour before or two hours after the ingestion of food. Treatment should continue until

`If severe reactions occur with concomitant use of strong CYP3A4 inhibitors or with a combined CYP3A4 and CYP1A2 inhibitor.
`Avoid concomitant use if possible [see Drug Interactions (7)].
`0 When restarting therapy following withholding treatment for a dose—limiting toxicity that has resolved to baseline or grade S 1.
`
`Increase TARCEVA by 50 mg increments as tolerated for:
`0 Concomitant use with CYP3A4 inducers. Increase doses by 50 mg increments at 2-week intervals to a maximum of 450 mg. Avoid
`concomitant use, if possible [see Drug Interactions (7)].
`0 Concurrent cigarette smoking or concomitant use of moderate CYP1A2 inducers. Increase by 50 mg increments at 2-week intervals
`to a maximum of 300 mg. Immediately reduce the dose of TARCEVA to the recommended dose (I50 mg or 100 mg daily) upon
`cessation of smoking [see Drug Interactions (7) and Clinical Pharmacology (I2.3)].
`
`Drugs that Increase Gastric pH
`0 Avoid concomitant use of TARCEVA with proton pump inhibitors if possible. Separation of doses may not eliminate the interaction
`since proton pump inhibitors affect the pH of the upper GI tract for an extended period.
`If treatment with an H-2 receptor antagonist such as ranitidine is required, TARCEVA must be taken l0 hours after the H-2 receptor
`antagonist dosing and at least 2 hours before the next dose of the H-2 receptor antagonist.
`0 Although the effect of antacids on erlotinib pharmacokinetics has not been evaluated, the antacid dose and the TARCEVA dose
`should be separated by several hours, if an antacid is necessary.

`
`WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
`
`U!L.
`
`Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD)
`
`Cases of serious ILD, including fatal cases, can occur with TARCEVA treatment. The overall incidence of ILD in approximately 32,000
`TARCEVA-treated patients in uncontrolled studies and studies with concurrent chemotherapy was approximately 1.1%. In patients with
`ILD, the onset of symptoms was between 5 days to more than 9 months (median 39 days) after initiating TARCEVA therapy.
`
`Withhold TARCEVA for acute onset of new or progressive unexplained pulmonary symptoms such as dyspnea, cough, and fever
`pending diagnostic evaluation. If ILD is confirmed, permanently discontinue TARCEVA [see Dosage and Administration (2.4)].
`
`5.2
`
`Renal Failure
`
`Hepatorenal syndrome, severe acute renal failure including fatal cases, and renal insufficiency can occur with TARCEVA treatment.
`Renal failure may arise from exacerbation of underlying baseline hepatic impairment or severe dehydration. The pooled incidence of
`severe renal impairment in the 3 monotherapy lung cancer studies was 0.5% in the TARCEVA arms and 0.8% in the control arms. The
`incidence of renal impairment in the pancreatic cancer study was 1.4% in the TARCEVA plus gemcitabine arm and 0.4% in the control
`arm. Withhold TARCEVA in patients developing severe renal impairment until renal toxicity is resolved. Perform periodic monitoring
`of renal function and serum electrolytes during TARCEVA treatment [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) and Dosage and Administration
`(2-4)]-
`
`5.3
`
`Hepatotoxicity with or without Hepatic Impairment
`
`Hepatic failure and hepatorenal syndrome, including fatal cases, can occur with TARCEVA treatment in patients with normal hepatic
`function; the risk of hepatic toxicity is increased in patients with baseline hepatic impairment. In clinical studies where patients with
`moderate to severe hepatic impairment were excluded, the pooled incidence of hepatic failure in the 3 monotherapy lung cancer studies
`was 0.4% in the TARCEVA arms and 0% in the control arms. The incidence of hepatic failure in the pancreatic cancer study was 0.4%
`in the TARCEVA plus gemcitabine arm and 0.4% in the control arm. In a pharmacokinetic study in 15 patients with moderate hepatic
`impairment (Child-Pugh B) associated with significant liver tumor burden, 10 of these 15 patients died within 30 days of the last
`TARCEVA dose. One patient died from hepatorenal syndrome, 1 patient died from rapidly progressing liver failure and the remaining 8
`patients died from progressive disease. Six out of the l0 patients who died had baseline total bilirubin > 3 x ULN.
`
`4
`
`
`
`Perform periodic liver testing (transaminases, bilirubin, and alkaline phosphatase) during treatment with TARCEVA. Increased
`frequency of monitoring of liver function is required for patients with pre—existing hepatic impairment or biliary obstruction. Withhold
`TARCEVA in patients without pre-existing hepatic impairment for total bilirubin levels greater than 3 times the upper limit of normal or
`transaminases greater than 5 times the upper limit of normal. Withhold TARCEVA in patients with preexisting hepatic impairment or
`biliary obstruction for doubling of bilirubin or tripling of transaminases values over baseline. Discontinue TARCEVA in patients whose
`abnormal liver tests meeting the above criteria do not improve significantly or resolve within three weeks [see Dosage and
`Administration (2. 4) and Clinical Pharmacology (l 2. 3)].
`
`5.4
`
`Gastrointestinal Perforation
`
`Gastrointestinal perforation, including fatal cases, can occur with TARCEVA treatment. Patients receiving concomitant anti-angiogenic
`agents, corticosteroids, NSAIDS, or taxane~based chemotherapy, or who have prior history of peptic ulceration or diverticular disease
`may be at increased risk of perforation [see Adverse Reactions (6.1, 6.2)]. The pooled incidence of gastrointestinal perforation in the 3
`monotherapy lung cancer studies was 0.2% in the TARCEVA arms and 0.1% in the control arms. The incidence of gastrointestinal
`perforation in the pancreatic cancer study was 0.4% in the TARCEVA plus gemcitabine arm and 0% in the control ami. Pemianently
`discontinue TARCEVA in patients who develop gastrointestinal perforation [see Dosage and Administration (2. 4)].
`
`5.5
`
`Bullous and Exfoliative Skin Disorders
`
`Bullous, blistering and exfoliative skin conditions, including cases suggestive of Stevens-Johnson syndrome/Toxic epidermal necrolysis,
`which in some cases were fatal, can occur with TARCEVA treatment [see Adverse Reactions (6.1, 6.2)]. The pooled incidence of
`bullous and exfoliative skin disorders in the 3 monotherapy lung cancer studies was 1.2% in the TARCEVA arms and 0% in the control
`arms. The incidence of bullous and exfoliative skin disorders in the pancreatic cancer study was 0.4% in the TARCEVA plus
`gemcitabine arm and 0% in the control arm. Discontinue TARCEVA treatment ifthe patient develops severe bullous, blistering or
`exfoliating conditions [see Dosage and Administration (2. 4)].
`
`5.6
`
`Myocardial Infarction/Ischemia
`
`In the pancreatic carcinoma trial, six patients (incidence of 2.1%) in the TARCEVA/gemcitabine group developed myocardial
`infarction/ischemia. One of these patients died due to myocardial infarction. In comparison, 3 patients in the placebo/gemcitabine group
`developed myocardial infarction (incidence 1.1%), and one died due to myocardial infarction. The pooled incidence of myocardial
`infarction/ischemia in the 3 monotherapy lung cancer studies was 0.2% in the TARCEVA arms and 0.4% in the control arms.
`
`5.7
`
`Cerebrovascular Accident
`
`In the pancreatic carcinoma trial, seven patients in the TARCEVA/gemcitabine group developed cerebrovascular accidents (incidence:
`2.5%). One of these was hemorrhagic and was the only fatal event. In comparison, in the placebo/gemcitabine group there were no
`cerebrovascular accidents. The pooled incidence of cerebrovascular accident in the 3 monotherapy lung cancer studies was 0.6% in the
`TARCEVA arms and 0.9% in the control arms.
`
`5.8
`
`Microangiopathic Hemolytic Anemia with Thrombocytopenia
`
`The pooled incidence of microangiopathic hemolytic anemia with thrombocytopenia in the 3 monotherapy lung cancer studies was 0%
`in the TARCEVA arms and 0.1% in the control arms. The incidence of microangiopathic hemolytic anemia with thrombocytopenia in
`the pancreatic cancer study was 1.4% in the TARCEVA plus gemcitabine arm and 0% in the control arm.
`
`U!
`
`\O
`
`Ocular Disorders
`
`Decreased tear production, abnormal eyelash growth, keratoconjunctivitis sicca or keratitis can occur with TARCEVA treatment and
`can lead to corneal perforation or ulceration [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) and (6. 2)]. The pooled incidence of ocular disorders in the 3
`monotherapy lung cancer studies was 17.8% in the TARCEVA arms and 4% in the control arms. The incidence of ocular disorders in
`the pancreatic cancer study was 12.8% in the TARCEVA plus gemcitabine arm and 11.4% in the control arm. Interrupt or discontinue
`TARCEVA therapy if patients present with acute or worsening ocular disorders such as eye pain [see Dosage and Administration (2. 4)].
`
`5.10
`
`Hemorrhage in Patients Taking Warfarin
`
`Severe and fatal hemorrhage associated with International Normalized Ratio (INR) elevations can occur when TARCEVA and warfarin
`are administered concurrently. Regularly monitor prothrombin time and INR during TARCEVA treatment in patients taking warfarin or
`other coumarin-derivative anticoagulants [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) and Drug Interactions (7)] .
`
`Embryo-Fetal Toxicity
`
`Based on its mechanism of action, TARCEVA can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. When given during
`organogenesis, erlotinib administration resulted in embryo—feta1 lethality and abortion in rabbits at doses approximately 3 times the
`recommended human daily dose of 150 mg. If TARCEVA is used during pregnancy, or if the patient becomes pregnant while taking
`this drug, the patient should be apprised of the potential hazard to a fetus [see Use in Specific Populations (8. 1)].
`
`Advise females of reproductive potential to use highly effective contraception during therapy, and for at least 2 weeks after the last dose
`of TARCEVA. Advise patients to contact their healthcare provider if they become pregnant, or if pregnancy is suspected, while taking
`TARCEVA [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1) and (8. 6)].

`
`Clinical Trial Experience
`
`Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug
`cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.
`
`Safety evaluation of TARCEVA is based on more than 1200 cancer patients who received TARCEVA as monotherapy, more than 300
`patients who received TARCEVA 100 or 150 mg plus gemcitabine, and 1228 patients who received TARCEVA concurrently with other
`chemotherapies. The most common adverse reactions with TARCEVA are rash and diarrhea usually with onset during the first month of
`treatment. The incidences of rash and diarrhea from clinical studies of TARCEVA for the treatment of NSCLC and pancreatic cancer
`were 70% for rash and 42% for diarrhea.
`
`Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
`
`First—Line Treatment ofPatients with EGFR Mutations
`
`The most frequent (2 30%) adverse reactions in TARCEVA-treated patients were diarrhea, asthenia, rash, cough, dyspnea and decreased
`appetite. In TARCEVA-treated patients the median time to onset of rash was l5 days and the median time to onset of diarrhea was 32
`days.
`
`The most frequent Grade 3-4 adverse reactions in TARCEVA—treated patients were rash and diarrhea.
`
`Dose interruptions or reductions due to adverse reactions occurred in 37% of TARCEVA-treated patients, and 14.3% of TARCEVA-
`treated patients discontinued therapy due to adverse reactions. In TARCEVA—treated patients, the most frequently reported adverse
`reactions leading to dose modification were rash (13%), diarrhea (l0%), and asthenia (3.6%).
`
`Selected, common adverse reactions in Study 4, occurring in at least 10% of patients who received TARCEVA or chemotherapy and an
`increase in 2 5% in the TARCEVA-treated group, are summarized by NCI—CTC (version 3.0) Grade in Table l. The median duration of
`TARCEVA treatment was 9.6 months in Study 4.

`
`Maintenance Treatment
`
`Adverse reactions, regardless of causality, that occurred in at least 3% of patients treated with single-agent TARCEVA at 150 mg and at
`least 3% more often than in the placebo group in the randomized maintenance trial (Study 3) are summarized by NCI-CTC (version 3.0)
`Grade in Table 2.
`
`The most common adverse reactions in patients receiving single-agent TARCEVA 150 mg were rash and diarrhea. Grade 3-4 rash and
`diarrhea occurred in 9% and 2%, respectively, in TARCEVA—treated patients. Rash and diarrhea resulted in study discontinuation in 1%
`and 0.5% OFTARCEVA-treated patients, respectively. Dose reduction or interruption for rash and diarrhea was needed in 5% and 3% of
`patients, respectively. In TARCEVA-treated patients the median time to onset of rash was 10 days, and the median time to onset of
`diarrhea was 15 days.

`
`Liver test abnormalities including ALT elevations were observed at Grade 2 or greater severity in 3% of TARCEVA—treated patients
`and 1% of placebo—treated patients. Grade 2 and above bilirubin elevations were observed in 5% of TARCEVA—treated patients and in

`
`Adverse reactions, regardless of causality, that occurred in at least 10% of patients treated with single-agent TARCEVA at 150 mg and
`at least 5% more often than in the placebo group in the randomized trial of patients with NSCLC are summarized by NCI-CTC (version
`2.0) Grade in Table 3.
`
`The most common adverse reactions in this patient population were rash and diarrhea. Grade 3-4 rash and diarrhea occurred in 9% and
`6%, respectively, in TARCEVA—treated patients. Rash and diarrhea each resulted in study discontinuation in 1% of TARCEVA-treated
`patients. Six percent and 1% of patients needed dose reduction for rash and diarrhea, respectively. The median time to onset of rash was
`8 days, and the median time to onset of diarrhea was 12 days.

`
`Liver function test abnormalities (including elevated alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and bilirubin)
`were observed in patients receiving single-agent TARCEVA 150 mg. These elevations were mainly transient or associated with liver
`metastases. Grade 2 (> 2.5 — 5.0 x ULN) ALT elevations occurred in 4% and < 1% of TARCEVA and placebo-treated patients,
`respectively. Grade 3 (> 5.0 — 20.0 x ULN) elevations were not observed in TARCEVA-treated patients. TARCEVA dosing should be
`interrupted or discontinued if changes in liver function are severe [see Dosage and Administration (2.4)].
`
`Pancreatic Cancer — TARCE VA Administered Concurrently with Gemcitabine
`
`This was a randomized, double—blind placebo—controlled study of TARCEVA (150 mg or 100 mg daily) or placebo plus gemcitabine
`(1000 mg/m2 IV) in patients with locally advanced, unresectable or metastatic pancreatic cancer (Study 2). The safety population
`comprised 282 patients in the erlotinib group (259 in the 100 mg cohort and 23 in the 150 mg cohort) and 280 patients in the placebo
`group (256 in the 100 mg cohort and 24 in the 150 mg cohort).
`
`Adverse reactions that occurred in at least 10% of patients treated with TARCEVA 100 mg plus gemcitabine in the randomized trial of
`patients with pancreatic cancer (Study 2) are summarized by NCl—CTC (version 2.0) Grade in Table 4.
`
`The most common adverse reactions in pancreatic cancer patients receiving TARCEVA 100 mg plus gemcitabine were fatigue, rash,
`nausea, anorexia and diarrhea. In the TARCEVA plus gemcitabine arm, Grade 3~4 rash and diarrhea were each reported in 5% of
`patients. The median time to onset of rash and diarrhea was 10 days and 15 days, respectively. Rash and diarrhea each resulted in dose
`reductions in 2% of patients, and resulted in study discontinuation in up to 1% of patients receiving TARCEVA plus gemcitabine.
`Severe adverse reactions (2 Grade 3 NCI—CTC) in the TARCEVA plus gemcitabine group with incidences < 5% included syncope,
`arrhythmias, ileus, pancreatitis, hemolytic anemia including microangiopathic hemolytic anemia with thrombocytopenia, myocardial
`infarction/ischemia, cerebrovascular accidents including cerebral hemorrhage, and renal insufficiency [see Warnings and Precautions
`(5)]-
`
`The 150 mg cohort was associated with a higher rate of certain class-specific adverse reactions including rash and required more
`frequent dose reduction or interruption.
