Sevabertinib pharmacokinetics were observed at steady state in patients with advanced NSCLC harboring activating HER2 or EGFR mutations at the approved recommended dosage and are presented as mean (CV%), unless otherwise specified.
Sevabertinib maximum concentration (Cmax) is 902 (45%) ng/mL and total systemic exposure (AUC) is 6,640 (50%) ng*h/mL. Sevabertinib Cmax and AUC increase in a dose-proportional manner across the dose range of 10 mg to 80 mg (0.25 to 2 times the approved recommended total daily dose). Sevabertinib accumulation is approximately 1.7-fold for AUC and 1.3-fold for Cmax at the approved recommended dosage. Steady state is achieved within 3 days.
Absorption
Sevabertinib median (min, max) time to maximum concentrations (Tmax) is approximately 2 hours (0.5, 8.2 hours) after a single dose.
Effect of Food
Sevabertinib Cmax decreases by 56% and AUC decreases by 28% with a high-fat meal (1000 calories, 50% fat) in healthy subjects. No clinically significant differences in sevabertinib pharmacokinetics were observed following administration of a low-fat meal (400 calories, 25% fat).
Distribution
Sevabertinib apparent volume of distribution is 28 L (42%). Sevabertinib plasma protein binding is 95%. The blood-to-plasma concentration ratio is 0.6.
Elimination
Sevabertinib effective half-life is approximately 8 hours (33%) with an apparent clearance of 3.1 L/hour (38%).
Metabolism
Sevabertinib is primarily metabolized by CYP3A (major), CYP1A1 (minor), and glucuronidation (minor).
Excretion
After a single oral dose of radiolabeled sevabertinib 40 mg to healthy subjects, approximately 84% of the dose was recovered in feces (14% unchanged) and approximately 10% in urine (1.3% unchanged).
Specific Populations
No clinically significant effects in the pharmacokinetics of sevabertinib were observed based on age (18 to 91 years), race (27% White, 65% Asian, 2.7% Black/African American), sex, body weight (29 to 155 kg), smoking status, eGFR 30 to < 90 mL/min, or mild hepatic impairment (AST > ULN and total bilirubin ≤ ULN; or total bilirubin >1 to 1.5× ULN and any AST). The effect of severe renal impairment (eGFR 15 to <30 mL/min), end-stage renal disease (eGFR <15 mL/min), moderate hepatic impairment (total bilirubin >1.5 to 3× ULN and any AST) or severe hepatic impairment (total bilirubin > 3× ULN and any AST) on sevabertinib pharmacokinetics is unknown.
Drug Interaction Studies
Clinical Studies
Strong CYP3A Inhibitors: Sevabertinib AUC increased 2.3-fold and Cmax 1.6-fold following concomitant use of itraconazole (strong CYP3A inhibitor) 200 mg once daily.
Strong CYP3A Inducers: Sevabertinib AUC decreased by 79% and Cmax by 57% following concomitant use of carbamazepine (strong CYP3A inducer) 600 mg once daily.
CYP3A Substrates: Midazolam (CYP3A substrate) AUC increased 2-fold and Cmax 1.8-fold following concomitant use of HYRNUO 20 mg twice daily.
P-gp Substrates: Dabigatran etexilate (P-gp substrate) AUC increased 1.4-fold following concomitant use of HYRNUO 20 mg twice daily.
BCRP Substrates: Rosuvastatin (BCRP substrate) AUC increased 1.3-fold and Cmax 1.4-fold following concomitant use of HYRNUO 20 mg twice daily.
Other Drugs: No clinically significant differences in sevabertinib pharmacokinetics were observed when used concomitantly with esomeprazole (proton pump inhibitor).
In Vitro studies
CYP450 Enzymes: Sevabertinib inhibits CYP1A1 and CYP2C8 but does not inhibit CYP2A6, CYP2C9, CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2D6, CYP2C19, or CYP2E1. Sevabertinib does not induce CYP1A2, CYP2B6, or CYP2C19.
Transporter Systems: Sevabertinib is a substrate of P-gp, and BCRP. Sevabertinib inhibits MATE1 and MATE2-K but does not inhibit OATP1B1, OATP1B3, MRP2, OAT1, OAT3, OCT1, or OCT2.
