Overview

Inavolisib, a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor, is an antineoplastic agent.

Inavolisib is a highly selective small molecule inhibitor of the p110 catalytic subunit alpha isoform protein of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K). Activation of PI3K pathway activity is frequently observed in breast cancer, leading to uncontrolled tumor cell growth and drug resistance. In vitro, inavolisib induced the degradation of mutated PI3K catalytic alpha subunits p110alpha, inhibited phosphorylation of the downstream target protein kinase B (AKT), reduced cellular proliferation, and induced apoptosis in PIK3CA-mutated breast cancer cell lines.

In vivo, inavolisib reduced tumor growth in PIK3CA-mutated, estrogen receptor-positive, breast cancer xenograft models. The anti-tumor activity was more pronounced when inavolisib was used in combination with fulvestrant and palbociclib.

The time course of pharmacodynamic response of inavolisib is unknown. Higher systemic exposure of inavolisib was associated with higher incidence of Grade 2 or higher anemia, Grade 2 or higher hyperglycemia, and inavolisib dosage modifications due to adverse reactions. Steady state concentrations are predicted to be reached by day 5.

Inavolisib absolute oral bioavailability is 76% and steady state median time to maximum plasma concentration is 3 hours. A high fat meal did not have any clinically significant effects on the pharmacokinetics of inavolisib. Inavolisib is 37% plasma protein bound.

The elimination half-life of the drug is 15 hours. Inavolisib is primarily metabolized by hydrolysis. Inavolisib is minimally metabolized by P-450 (CYP) isoenzyme 3A in vitro.

Following oral administration of a single dose, 49% of the dose was recovered in urine and 48% in feces.

USES: This medication is used to treat certain types of breast cancer. Inavolisib belongs to a class of drugs known as kinase inhibitors. It works by slowing or stopping the growth of cancer cells.

Indications

The following indications are listed for Itovebi:

  • Hormone Receptor (Hr)-Positive, Her2-Negative, Pik3ca Mutated Advanced Breast Cancer

Also known as: Hormone Receptor (Hr)-Positive, Her2-Negative, Pik3ca Mutated Metastatic Breast Cancer, Hr-Positive, Her2-Negative, Pik3ca-Mutated Advanced Breast Cancer.

Dosing

If adverse reactions occur, dosage interruption and/or reduction, or discontinuance of inavolisib may be necessary (see Table 1).

If dosage reduction from 9 mg once daily is necessary, the dosage should be reduced to 6 mg daily. If the toxicity recurs at a dosage of 6 mg daily, the dosage should be reduced to 3 mg daily. If patients are unable to tolerate the second dosage reduction, inavolisib should be permanently discontinued.

Table 1: Recommended Dosage Modifications for Inavolisib Adverse Reactions

Adverse Reaction Dosage Modification Based on Severity Hyperglycemia Fasting glucose levels (FPG or FBG) >ULN to 160 mg/dL: No adjustment required. Consider dietary modifications and ensure adequate hydration; initiate or intensify oral anti-hyperglycemic medications for patients with risk factors for hyperglycemia. Fasting glucose levels >160 to 250 mg/dL: Withhold until FPG or FBG <=160 mg/dL; initiate or intensify anti-hyperglycemic medications. Resume inavolisib at the same dose level. If FPG or FBG persists >200-250 mg/dL for 7 days under the appropriate anti-hyperglycem ic treatment, consider consultation with a healthcare professional experienced in hyperglycemia management. Fasting glucose levels >250 to 500 mg/dL: Withhold therapy. Initiate or intensify anti-hyperglycemic medications. Administer appropriate hydration i f required. If FPG or FBG decreases to <=160 mg/dL within 7 days, resume inavolisib at the same dose. If FPG or FBG decreases to <=160 mg/dL in >=8 days, resume at 1 lower dose level. If FPG or FBG >250 to 500 mg/dL recurs within 30 days, withhold until FP G or FBG decreases to <=160 mg/dL, then resume at 1 lower dose level. Fasting glucose levels >500 mg/dL: Withhold therapy. Initiate or intensify anti-hyperglycemic medications. Assess for volume depletion and ketosis and administer appropriate hydration. I f FPG or FBG decreases to <=160 mg/dL, resume inavolisib at 1 lower dose level. If FPG or FBG >500 mg/dL recurs within 30 days, permanently discontinue therapy. Stomatitis Grade 1: No adjustment necessary. Initiate or intensify appropriate medical therapy (e.g., corticosteroid-containing mouthwash) as clinically indicated. Grade 2: Withhold until improvement to grade 1 or lower. Initiate or intensify appropriate medical the rapy. Resume inavolisib at the same dose level. For recurrent grade 2 stomatitis, withhold until recovery to grade 1 or lower, then resume at one lower dose level. Grade 3: Withhold until recovery to grade 1 or lower. Initiate or intensify appropriate med ical therapy. Resume inavolisib at 1 lower dose level. Grade 4: Permanently discontinue therapy. Diarrhea Grade 1: No adjustment required. Initiate appropriate medical therapy and monitor as clinically indicated. Grade 2: Withhold until recovery to grade 1 or lower, then resume inavolisib at same dose level. Initiate or intensify appropriate medical therapy a nd monitor as clinically indicated. For recurrent grade 2 diarrhea, withhold until recovery to grade 1 or lower, then resume inavolisib at one lower dose level. Grade 3: Withhold until recovery to grade 1 or lower, then resume inavolisib at one lower dose level. Initiate or intensify appropriate medical therapy and monitor as clinically indicated. Grade 4: Permanently discontinue therapy. Hematologic toxicities Grade 1, 2, or 3: No adjustment required. Monitor CBC and for signs or symptoms of hematologic toxicities as clinically indicated. Grade 4: Withhold until recovery to grade 2 or lower. Resume inavolisib at the same dose level or reduce to one lower dose l evel as clinically indicated. Other adverse reactions Grade 1: No adjustment required. Grade 2: Consider withholding, if clinically indicated, until recovery to grade 1 or lower. Resume inavolisib at the same dose level. Grade 3 (first event): Withhold until recovery to grade 1 or lower. Resume inavolisib at the same dose level or one lower dose level based on clinical evaluation. Grade 3 (recurrent): Withhold until recovery to grade 1 or lower. Resume inavolisib at one lower dose level. Grade 4: Permanently discontinue therapy.

Drug interactions

In vitro studies indicate that inavolisib induces cytochrome P-450 (CYP) isoenzyme 3A and CYP2B6.

Inavolisib is a time-dependent inhibitor of CYP3A. Inavolisib does not inhibit CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, or CYP2D6.

Inavolisib is a substrate of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), but is not a substrate of organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP)1B1, OATP1B3, organic cation transporter (OCT)1, OCT2, multidrug and toxin extrusion transporter (MATE)1, MATE2K, or organic anion transporter (OAT)1, OAT2.

Inavolisib does not inhibit P-gp, BCRP, OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OCT1, OCT2, OAT1, OAT3, MATE1, or MATE2K.

Contraindications

*None.
