IndicationTAVALISSE is a kinase inhibitor indicated for the treatment of thrombocytopenia in adult patients with chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) who have had an insufficient response to a previous treatment.
Select Important Safety InformationWarnings and Precautions· Hypertension can occur with TAVALISSE treatment. Patients with pre-existing hypertension may be more susceptible to the hypertensive effects.
Monitor blood pressure every 2 weeks until stable, then monthly, and adjust or initiate antihypertensive therapy for blood pressure control maintenance during therapy. If increased blood pressure persists, TAVALISSE interruption, reduction, or discontinuation may be required.

STAND STRONGAGAINST PLATELET DESTRUCTION
For adults with chronic ITP
2 3
IMMUNE THROMBOCYTOPENIA IS A HETEROGENEOUS DISEASE WITH A COMPLEX, MULTIFACTORIAL PATHOGENESIS
Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is driven by two factors: immune-mediated platelet destruction and limited platelet production1
CONVENTIONAL ITP TREATMENT OPTIONS ARE DEFINED BY COMPLEXITIES
Current ITP treatment approaches either decrease platelet destruction or stimulate platelet production3
Corticosteroids Suppress systemic function and reduce antibody production,
resulting in decreased platelet destruction1
Standard first-line therapy for recently diagnosed patients5
Over time, treatment side effects may outweigh the potential benefits5
Most patients relapse upon discontinuation of treatment5
Thrombopoietin receptor agonists (TPO-RAs) Stimulate megakaryocytes in bone marrow to produce platelets3
Associated with potential increases in bone marrow fibrosis5
Evidence of increased thrombotic events with use of certain TPO-RA agents5
Anti-CD20 Depletes B cells3
Increased response when used with concomitant corticosteroids5
A meta-analysis of 5 trials showed that rituximab was not associated with reductions in bleeding5
In a study of response durability, only 21% maintained remission at 5 years5
Immune-mediated platelet destruction Limited platelet production
Dysregulation of the immune system leads to production of anti-platelet antibodies2
1 Platelet destruction causes decreased levels of thrombopoietin (TPO)1 1
Macrophage recognition of antibody-coated platelets results in unregulated platelet destruction3
2Anti-platelet antibodies may also target megakaryocytes, resulting in impaired megakaryocyte function3
2
Lysis process results in an amplified production of anti-platelet antibodies33
Irregular T-cell response may destroy platelets in bone marrow and impede platelet production4
3
An individualized treatment strategy is needed for patients since ITP is a distinctly heterogeneous disease.

THE INTERNATIONAL CONSENSUS REPORT ON IMMUNE THROMBOCYTOPENIA (ITP) ENDORSES FOSTAMATINIB AS A SECOND-LINE TREATMENT FOR CHRONIC ITP
*Adapted from the 2019 publication of the International Consensus Report on ITP.†Recommended first-line treatments are defined as corticosteroids, IVIG, and anti-D.
Select Important Safety Information
Warnings and Precautions (continued)• Elevated liver function tests (LFTs), mainly ALT and AST, can occur with TAVALISSE. Monitor LFTs monthly during treatment. If ALT or AST
increase to >3 x upper limit of normal, manage hepatotoxicity using TAVALISSE interruption, reduction, or discontinuation.
TAVALISSE PRESENTS AN OPPORTUNITY TO REDEFINE THE TREATMENT LANDSCAPE
Limiting platelet destruction with the targeted mechanism of TAVALISSE is a novel way to treat chronic ITP (cITP)6,7
TAVALISSE is the first spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) inhibitor indicated for the treatment of thrombocytopenia in adult patients with chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) who have had an insufficient response to a previous treatment.6,7

INHIBITING SPLEEN TYROSINE KINASE (SYK) MAY HELP LIMIT IMMUNE-MEDIATED PLATELET DESTRUCTION
*The active metabolite of TAVALISSE is R406.
TAVALISSE is the first and only agent that targets SYK in macrophages to inhibit downstream signaling in cITP3,6
Select Important Safety Information
Warnings and Precautions (continued)• Diarrhea occurred in 31% of patients and severe diarrhea occurred in 1% of patients treated with TAVALISSE. Monitor patients for the
development of diarrhea and manage using supportive care measures early after the onset of symptoms. If diarrhea becomes severe (≥Grade 3), interrupt, reduce dose or discontinue TAVALISSE.

Stable response (primary endpoint)
To observe stability and response variability (during weeks 14-24)
Platelet count ≥50 x 109/L on at least 4 of the 6 visits without need for rescue treatment
Overall response (post hoc endpoint)†
To assess efficacy signal during the first 3 months/ 12 weeks
Platelet count ≥50 x 109/L at one or more check-ins without need for rescue treatment in the preceding 4 weeks
THE FOSTAMATINIB IN ITP (FIT) PROGRAM WAS DESIGNED TO EVALUATE SHORT- AND LONG-TERM TREATMENT EFFECTS
The FIT-1, FIT-2, and FIT-3 phase 3 clinical trials assessed TAVALISSE efficacy, safety, and durability6,18,*
* Duration of response analysis endpoint: the number of days from achieving a platelet count ≥50 x 10⁹/L to reaching a platelet count <30 x 10⁹/L at two consecutive visits. Patients were classified as losing response if platelet counts dropped below 30 x 10⁹/L for two consecutive visits 28 days apart, or if rescue medication was used.
†Overall response: the initial 12 weeks were selected since most nonresponding patients from both arms discontinued FIT-1 and FIT-2 and entered the open-label extension study at or very soon after week 12.
‡Stable concurrent ITP therapies permitted in clinical trials: glucocorticoids (<20 mg prednisone equivalent per day), azathioprine, or danazol.
All patients with platelets <50 x 109/L, regardless of treatment arm, were eligible to enter FIT-3 (open-label extension) at or after week 12
In clinical trials, stable concurrent ITP therapy was allowed, and rescue therapy was permitted if needed. Visits where rescue medication was used were excluded from the efficacy analysis7,‡

In clinical trials, stable concurrent ITP therapy was allowed and rescue therapy was permitted if needed7
Use the lowest dose of TAVALISSE to achieve and maintain a platelet count of at least 50 x 109/L as necessary to reduce the risk of bleeding7
In addition to supportive care measures, management of some adverse reactions may require dose interruption, reduction, or discontinuation7
– See section 2.3 of the full Prescribing Information for specific guidance on dose modifications and recommendations for treatment discontinuations regarding hypertension, hepatotoxicity, diarrhea, and neutropenia
88% of patients in the phase 3 clinical trials were maintained at the 150 mg BID dose7

INDICATION AND IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Indication
TAVALISSE is indicated for the treatment of thrombocytopenia in adult patients with chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) who have had an insufficient response to a previous treatment.
Important Safety Information
Warnings and Precautions• Hypertension can occur with TAVALISSE treatment. Patients with pre-existing hypertension
may be more susceptible to the hypertensive effects. Monitor blood pressure every 2 weeks until stable, then monthly, and adjust or initiate antihypertensive therapy for blood pressure control maintenance during therapy. If increased blood pressure persists, TAVALISSE interruption, reduction, or discontinuation may be required.
• Elevated liver function tests (LFTs), mainly ALT and AST, can occur with TAVALISSE. Monitor LFTs monthly during treatment. If ALT or AST increase to >3 x upper limit of normal, manage hepatotoxicity using TAVALISSE interruption, reduction, or discontinuation.
• Diarrhea occurred in 31% of patients and severe diarrhea occurred in 1% of patients treated with TAVALISSE. Monitor patients for the development of diarrhea and manage using supportive care measures early after the onset of symptoms. If diarrhea becomes severe (≥Grade 3), interrupt, reduce dose or discontinue TAVALISSE.
• Neutropenia occurred in 6% of patients treated with TAVALISSE; febrile neutropenia occurred in 1% of patients. Monitor the ANC monthly and for infection during treatment. Manage toxicity with TAVALISSE interruption, reduction, or discontinuation.
• TAVALISSE can cause fetal harm when administered to pregnant women. Advise pregnant women the potential risk to a fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment and for at least 1 month after the last dose. Verify pregnancy status prior to initiating TAVALISSE. It is unknown if TAVALISSE or its metabolite is present in human milk. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in a breastfed child, advise a lactating woman not to breastfeed during TAVALISSE treatment and for at least 1 month after the last dose.
Drug Interactions • Concomitant use of TAVALISSE with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors increases exposure to the
major active metabolite of TAVALISSE (R406), which may increase the risk of adverse reactions. Monitor for toxicities that may require a reduction in TAVALISSE dose.
• It is not recommended to use TAVALISSE with strong CYP3A4 inducers, as concomitant use reduces exposure to R406.
• Concomitant use of TAVALISSE may increase concentrations of some CYP3A4 substrate drugs and may require a dose reduction of the CYP3A4 substrate drug.
• Concomitant use of TAVALISSE may increase concentrations of BCRP substrate drugs (eg, rosuvastatin) and P-Glycoprotein (P-gp) substrate drugs (eg, digoxin), which may require a dose reduction of the BCRP and P-gp substrate drug.
Adverse Reactions• Serious adverse drug reactions in the ITP double-blind studies were febrile neutropenia,
diarrhea, pneumonia, and hypertensive crisis, which occurred in 1% of TAVALISSE patients. In addition, severe adverse reactions occurred including dyspnea and hypertension (both 2%), neutropenia, arthralgia, chest pain, diarrhea, dizziness, nephrolithiasis, pain in extremity, toothache, syncope, and hypoxia (all 1%).
• Common adverse reactions (≥5% and more common than placebo) from FIT-1 and FIT-2 included: diarrhea, hypertension, nausea, dizziness, ALT and AST increased, respiratory infection, rash, abdominal pain, fatigue, chest pain, and neutropenia.
