Indications【INDICATIONS】Unresectable melanoma with BRAF mutation Precautions related to INDICATIONS 1. ZELBORAF should be administered only in patients confirmed to be BRAFmutation-positive through tests by an adequately experienced pathologistor test facility.The test should be conducted using an approved in vitro diagnostic.2. Eligible patients should be selected after carefully reading the CLINICALSTUDIES section to gain a thorough understanding of the effectivenessand safety of ZELBORAF.3. The effectiveness and safety of ZELBORAF as post-operative adjuvantchemotherapy have not been established.Package Insert: Dec. 2014 (Version 1)8

Dosage and administration【DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION】The usual adult dosage of vemurafenib is 960 mg administeredorally twice daily. Precautions Related to DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION 1.If an adverse reaction occurs, the dose should be modified with reference to Table1. However, if cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma or new primary melanomaoccurs, treatment can continue without dose reduction or interruption after thepatient receives appropriate intervention, such as surgical resection. In patientswho develop QTc prolongation, the dose should be modified with reference toTable 2.2.Increased Cmax and AUC has been reported with postprandial administration ofZELBORAF. To avoid the food effect, dosing is preferable in a fasted state (fasting2 hours before and 1 hour after dose) (see PHARMACOKINETICS).3.The effectiveness and safety of ZELBORAF in combination therapy with otheranti-cancer drugs have not been established.Please refer to the package insert about “Table1” and “Table2.”Package Insert: Dec. 2014 (Version 1)9

Conditions for approval1. A drug risk management plan should be prepared andappropriately implemented.2. Because the number of patients in Japanese clinical trials isvery limited, postmarketing drug use surveillance of allpatients receiving ZELBORAF should be conducted untildata for a set number of patients are collected in order toidentify the background characteristics of patients usingZELBORAF, collect early data on the safety and efficacy ofZELBORAF, and take necessary measures for appropriateuse of ZELBORAF.Package Insert: Dec. 2014 (Version 1)10

Contents1. Reasons for implementing safety measures2. Safety measures based on post-approval commitments(PACs)– Implement safety measures on the basis of the risk managementplan (RMP)– Implement postmarketing surveillance for all patients treated3. Other approaches for safety measures4. Summary22

1. Reasons for implementing safety measures Only a very small number of patients were studied in Japanese clinicaltrials. Only 11 patients received the clinical dose during the Japanese Phase I/II clinical trial.Therefore, it is necessary to identify demographic characteristics of patients givenZelboraf, collect data at an early stage on the safety and efficacy of Zelboraf, andtake necessary measures for the appropriate use of Zelboraf. Serious adverse drug reactions (ADRs), such as squamous-cellcarcinoma and QT interval prolongation, may occur. It is necessary to reliably provide healthcare professionals and patients withinformation on the appropriate use of Zelboraf, such as ADR incidence and actions totake when ADRs occur.It is necessary to set use requirements to ensure that Zelboraf will only beadministered under the care of medical institutions and physicians who arethoroughly familiar with chemotherapy and can adequately control any risksassociated with Zelboraf.Strict postmarketing safety measures are necessary for theappropriate use of Zelboraf.23

1. Reasons for implementing safety measuresPackage Insert: WARNINGS【WARNINGS】Zelboraf should be administered only in patients who are deemedsuitable for treatment, in a medical facility adequately equipped todeal with emergencies, and under the supervision of a physician whois knowledgeable and experienced in cancer chemotherapy. Beforetreatment is started, patients or their families should be provided witha full explanation of the benefits and risks of Zelboraf. Zelboraf shouldbe administered only after informed consent has been obtained.Package Insert: CONTRAINDICATIONS【CONTRAINDICATIONS (Zelboraf is contraindicated in the followingpatients.)】Patients with a previous history of hypersensitivity to any of theingredients of Zelboraf.24

2. Safety measures based on PACs Implement safety measures on the basis of the RMPRMPs should be planned and appropriately implemented. Implement postmarketing surveillance for all patientstreatedOnly a very small number of Japanese patients were treatedduring the clinical trials. Therefore, from product launch untildata on a given number of patients have been accumulated,the MAH should conduct drug use surveillance in all patients,thereby identifying the background characteristics of patientsgiven Zelboraf and collecting early data on the safety andefficacy of Zelboraf, and should take the measuresnecessary for the appropriate use of Zelboraf.25
