id="Everolimus.Introduction"><h3>Introduction</h3><p>Everolimus is an inhibitor of cell proliferation and immunosuppressive agent that is used alone or in combination with calcineurin inhibitors to prevent cellular rejection after organ transplantation, and in combination with other anticancer agents as treatment of advanced renal cell and other cancers. Everolimus therapy can be associated with mild serum enzyme elevations, but has yet to be linked to instances of clinically apparent liver injury with jaundice.</p></div><div id="Everolimus.Background"><h3>Background</h3><p>Everolimus (e" ver oh' li mus) binds to the same intracellular receptor as tacrolimus and cyclosporine, but does not inhibit calcineurin; rather, it blocks the "mammalian target of rapamycin" (mTOR), which interrupts signaling pathways of several cytokines and growth factors including IL2 and causes a decrease in protein synthesis and cell cycle arrest. Everolimus therapy has been shown to improve graft survival after solid organ transplantation and to improve time to progression in several forms of cancer. Everolimus was approved for use in the United States in 2009 initially as an agent to prevent rejection after kidney and liver transplantaiton and later, in higher doses, as therapy of advanced renal cell, breast and pancreatic neuroendocrine cancers given alone or in combination with other antineoplastic agents. More recently, everolimus was approved as therapy of renal angiomyolipoma and subependymal giant cell astrocytoma associated with tuberous sclerosis complex (in which mTOR signaling is dysregulated). Everolimus like sirolimus is also used in drug eluting arterial stents, to prevent stenosis. Everolimus is available as tablets of 0.25, 0.50 and 0.75 mg under the brand name of Zortress for management of solid organ transplantation, and as tablets of 2.5, 5, 7.5 and 10 mg under the brand name of Afinitor, and tablets of 2, 3 and 5 mg for oral suspension under the brand name Afinitor-Disprez for use in cancer chemotherapy. The typical dose in organ transplantation is 1.0 to 1.5 mg in two divided doses daily but therapeutic drug level monitoring for dosing is recommended. The doses using in cancer chemotherapy are higher than those used in prevention of organ rejection, usually starting at 10 mg once daily and varying somewhat by indication. Everolimus is less nephrotoxic than the calcineurin inhibitors but does have many, largely dose dependent side effects including oral ulcers, somatitis, diarrhea, nausea, poor appetite, fatigue, peripheral edema, rash, anemia, impaired wound healing and renal dysfunction. Less common but potentially severe adverse events include interstitial pneumonitis, reanl failure, hypersensitivity reactions and embryo-fetal toxicity.</p></div><div id="Everolimus.Hepatotoxicity"><h3>Hepatotoxicity</h3><p>Serum enzyme elevations occur in up to a quarter of patients taking everolimus, but the abnormalities are usually mild, asymptomatic and self-limiting, rarely requiring dose modification or discontinuation. Liver test elevations above 5 times ULN occur in only 1% to 2% of treated patients. In contrast, idiosyncratic, clinically apparent acute liver injury has not been linked to everolimus therapy despite its wide scale use in several malignant and non-malignant syndromes. Elevations in serum enzymes and bilirubin and hepatitis are listed as potential adverse events in the product label for everolimun. Thus, acute clinically apparent liver injury with jaundice due to everolimus is probably quite rare, if it occurs at all.</p><p>Importantly, everolimus is immunosuppressive and therapy in patients with cancer has been associated with episodes of reactivation of hepatitis B, which can be severe and even fatal. Reverse seroconversion (development of HBsAg in a person with preexisting antibody to hepatitis B, either anti-HBs or anti-HBc) has also been reported.</p><p>Likelihood score: E* (unproven and also unlikely cause of clinically apparent liver injury but capable of inducing reactivation of hepatitis B).</p></div><div id="Everolimus.Mechanism_of_Injury"><h3>Mechanism of Injury</h3><p>Everolimus undergoes extensive hepatic metabolism, largely via the cytochrome P450 system (CYP 3A4) and P-glycoprotein. Liver injury might be due to a direct effect of everolimus or to a toxic intermediate of its metabolism. Everolimus is prone to drug-drug interactions if used with inhibitors or inducers of the cytochrome P450 drug metabolizing enzymes.</p></div><div id="Everolimus.Outcome_and_Management"><h3>Outcome and Management</h3><p>Acute liver injury with jaundice associated with everolimus therapy has not been described, and the serum enzyme elevations associated with its use are usually mild and transient, resolving spontaneously or with dose modification. Because everolimus can lead to reactivation of chronic hepatitis B, routine screening of patients for HBsAg and anti-HBc before starting therapy is advisable, particularly those undergoing organ transplantation. Patients with HBsAg or anti-HBc should be offered prophylaxis or some degree of monitoring for de novo appearance or rise in levels of HBV DNA. Patients who develop reactivation should be treated with an oral nucleoside analogue with potent activity against hepatitis B (entecavir or tenofovir alafenamide). Everolimus is a macrolide similar in structure and function to sirolimus and temsirolimus, but these agents do not always exhibit cross sensitivity to adverse effects.</p><p>Agents used specifically for the prophylaxis against allograft rejection include cyclosporine, everolimus, mycophenolate mofetil, sirolimus and tacrolimus, as well as azathioprine and corticosteroids.</p><p>Drug Class: <a href="/books/n/livertox/AntineoplasticAgents/?report=reader">Antineoplastic Agents</a>, Miscellaneous; <a href="/books/n/livertox/Transplant_Drugs/?report=reader">Transplant Agents</a></p><p>Other Drugs in the Class, Transplant Drugs: <a href="/books/n/livertox/Cyclosporine/?report=reader">Cyclosporine</a>, <a href="/books/n/livertox/Mycophenolate/?report=reader">Mycophenolate</a>, <a href="/books/n/livertox/Sirolimus/?report=reader">Sirolimus</a>, <a href="/books/n/livertox/Tacrolimus/?report=reader">Tacrolimus</a></p></div></div><div id="Everolimus.PRODUCT_INFORMATION"><h2 id="_Everolimus_PRODUCT_INFORMATION_">PRODUCT INFORMATION</h2><div id="Everolimus.BPI" class="box boxed-text-box whole_rhythm hide-overflow"><p>
