id="_Pemigatinib_OVERVIEW_">OVERVIEW</h2><div id="Pemigatinib.Introduction"><h3>Introduction</h3><p>Pemigatinib is a fibroblast growth factor (FGF) receptor kinase inhibitor that is used to treat unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, as well as myeloid or lymphoid neoplasms with FGFR rearrangements. Pemigatinib is associated with transient and usually mild-to-moderate elevations in serum aminotransferase levels during therapy, but has not been convincingly linked to cases of clinically apparent liver injury with jaundice.</p></div><div id="Pemigatinib.Background"><h3>Background</h3><p>Pemigatinib (pem&#x0201d; i ga&#x02019; ti nib) is an orally available, small molecule inhibitor of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) receptors 1, 2 and 3. Pemigatinib is used as therapy of advanced or metastatic cancers that harbor amplications, translocations, fusing or other activating point mutations of FGF receptors. Cholangiocarcinomas often harbor mutations in the FGF receptor 2 that cause the receptor to be activated and promote uncontrolled growth and tumorigenesis. Inhibition of the mutant receptor causes regression of cell proliferation and promotes cell death, effects that can be shown in cell culture and in animal models using cancer cells with FGF receptor activating mutations. After trials of pemigatinib in patients with refractory, advanced cholangiocarcinoma demonstrated a moderate rate of durable clinical responses, it received accelerated approval for use in the United States in 2020. Current indications are limited to adults with previously treated, unresectable, locally advanced, or metastatic cholangiocarcinoma and myeloid or lymphoid neoplasms with FGF receptor gene fusions and other rearrangements. Pemigatinib is available in tablets of 4.5, 9.0 and 13.5 mg under the brand name Pemazyre. The recommended dose for cholangiocarcinoma is 13.5 mg once daily for the first 14 days of 21 day cycles. For other neoplasms, the recommended dose is 13.5 mg per day continuously until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Adverse events are common and often include hyperphosphatemia (an effect of inhibition of FGF signaling), as well as symptoms of fatigue, nausea, diarrhea, constipation, dysgeusia, anorexia, abdominal pain, musculoskeletal pain, dizziness, alopecia, dryness of the eyes, mouth, and skin, blurred vision, nail toxicity, and hand-foot syndrome. Severe adverse events include ocular toxicity, severe hyperphosphatemia and embryo-fetal toxicity.</p></div><div id="Pemigatinib.Hepatotoxicity"><h3>Hepatotoxicity</h3><p>In preregistration clinical trials of pemigatinib, ALT elevations arose in 43% to 50% of patients and were above 5 times ULN in 4% to 12%. Elevations in serum bilirubin were also common, but usually in the context of cholangiocarcinoma with partial or complete biliary obstruction. There were no cases of clinically apparent liver injury with jaundice and no deaths from liver failure attributable to pemigatinib therapy. The elevations were typically self-limited and resolved rapidly with or without dose adjustments. Since its approval, there have been no reports clinically apparent liver injury attributed to pemigatinib. However, the total clinical experience with its use has been limited and the frequency of serum aminotransferase elevations during therapy suggest that clinically significant liver injury may occur.</p><p>Likelihood score: E* (unproven but possible rare cause of clinically apparent liver injury).</p></div><div id="Pemigatinib.Mechanism_of_Injury"><h3>Mechanism of Injury</h3><p>The causes of serum enzyme elevations or liver injury from pemigatinib therapy are not known. Some of the adverse effects of pemigatinib are due to its effects on FGF signaling (hyperphosphatemia) and others may be due to off-target effects on other kinases. Pemigatinib is metabolized in the liver largely by CYP 3A4, and liver injury might be caused by production of a toxic or immunogenic intermediate. Because it is a substrate for CYP 3A4, pemigatinib is susceptible to drug-drug interactions with agents that inhibit or induce this specific hepatic drug-metabolizing microsomal activity.</p></div><div id="Pemigatinib.Outcome_and_Management"><h3>Outcome and Management</h3><p>Pemigatinib is associated with a moderate rate of serum aminotransferase elevations during therapy that are generally transient and not associated with symptoms or jaundice. While regular monitoring of liver tests is not specifically recommended, elevations if confirmed should lead to follow up monitoring. Serum aminotransferase elevations above 5 times the upper limit of normal or any elevations accompanied by jaundice or symptoms should lead to dose reduction or temporary cessation until they resolve or another cause of the abnormalities is found. There is no evidence to suggest a cross reactivity in risk for adverse events, hypersensitivity or hepatic injury between pemigatinib and other kinase inhibitors including the FGF receptor inhibitors such as erdafitinib, futibatinib, or infigratinib.</p><p>Drug Class: <a href="/books/n/livertox/AntineoplasticAgents/?report=reader">Antineoplastic Agents</a>, <a href="/books/n/livertox/ProteinKinaseInhibit/?report=reader">Protein Kinase Inhibitors</a></p><p>Other FGF Receptor Kinase Inhibitors: <a href="/books/n/livertox/Erdafitinib/?report=reader">Erdafitinib</a>, <a href="/books/n/livertox/Futibatinib/?report=reader">Futibatinib</a>, <a href="/books/n/livertox/Infigratinib/?report=reader">Infigratinib</a></p></div></div><div id="Pemigatinib.PRODUCT_INFORMATION"><h2 id="_Pemigatinib_PRODUCT_INFORMATION_">PRODUCT INFORMATION</h2><p>
