Summary Of Exposure |
A) USES: Sonidegib, a hedgehog pathway inhibitor, is used for the treatment of adult patients with locally advanced basal cell carcinoma that has recurred following surgical or radiation therapy or is used to treat patients that are not candidates for surgery or radiation therapy. B) PHARMACOLOGY: Sonidegib is a Smoothened (ie, a transmembrane protein involved in Hedgehog signal transduction) antagonist that inhibits the Hedgehog signaling pathway. C) EPIDEMIOLOGY: Exposure is uncommon. D) WITH THERAPEUTIC USE
1) ACUTE EFFECTS: COMMON: The most common adverse effects occurring in greater than or equal to 10% of patients treated with 200 mg of sonidegib include: headache, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, dysgeusia, decreased appetite, decreased weight, muscle spasm, myalgia, musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, pruritus, alopecia, anemia, and lymphopenia. In a clinical study, common adverse events appeared to be dose-dependent; common adverse events were greater in patients treated with 800 mg compared to 200 mg of sonidegib daily. Laboratory abnormalities can include: hyperglycemia, increased liver enzymes, increases in amylase and lipase, and increased serum creatine kinase and creatinine.
E) WITH POISONING/EXPOSURE
1) OVERDOSE: Limited data. There have been no reports of overdose. It is anticipated that overdose effects may be similar to adverse reactions observed with therapeutic use.

3.20.1) SUMMARY
A) There are no adequate or well-controlled studies of sonidegib use in pregnant women. Women should be apprised that based on its mechanism of action and animal data there is potential risk to the fetus if sonidegib is administered during pregnancy. It is unknown whether sonidegib is excreted into human milk. Because of the potential risk to the nursing infant, women should discontinue breastfeeding during treatment.
3.20.2) TERATOGENICITY
A) ANIMAL STUDIES 1) In animal studies, severe malformations were observed at doses approximately 0.05 times the recommended human dose. The effects included vertebral malformations, distal limb malformations, digit malformations, severe craniofacial malformations, and other severe midline defects. Skeletal variations also developed when maternal exposure to sonidegib was below the limit of detection (Prod Info ODOMZO(R) oral capsules, 2015).
3.20.3) EFFECTS IN PREGNANCY
A) RISK SUMMARY 1) There are no adequate or well-controlled studies of sonidegib use in pregnant women. Women should be apprised that based on its mechanism of action and animal data there is potential risk to the fetus if sonidegib is administered during pregnancy (Prod Info ODOMZO(R) oral capsules, 2015).
B) CONTRACEPTION 1) Women of childbearing potential should use effective contraception during and for at least 20 months following discontinuation of therapy. Men should wear condoms during intercourse and refrain from donating semen during and for at least 8 months following discontinuation of therapy, even if a vasectomy has been performed (Prod Info ODOMZO(R) oral capsules, 2015).
C) ANIMAL STUDIES 1) In animal studies, abortion and complete fetus resorption were observed at doses approximately 0.05 times the recommended human dose (RHD). A decrease in the number of pregnant females, an increase in the number of early resorptions and a decrease in the number of viable fetuses were observed at doses approximately 0.12 times the RHD. In a 6-month repeat-dose toxicology study, atrophy of the uterus and ovaries occurred at doses approximately 2 times the RHD (Prod Info ODOMZO(R) oral capsules, 2015).
3.20.4) EFFECTS DURING BREAST-FEEDING
A) LACK OF INFORMATION 1) It is unknown if sonidegib is present in breast milk, its effect on milk production, or the effect on breastfed infants. Because of the potential risk to the nursing infant, women should discontinue breastfeeding during treatment (Prod Info ODOMZO(R) oral capsules, 2015).
3.20.5) FERTILITY
A) ANIMAL STUDIES 1) In animal studies, lack of fertility was observed in female rats at doses approximately 1.3 times the recommended human dose. No impact on fertility was observed in male rats at doses up to 20 mg/kg/day, the highest dose tested (Prod Info ODOMZO(R) oral capsules, 2015).

Carcinogenicity |
3.21.4) ANIMAL STUDIES
A) LACK OF INFORMATION 1) At the time of this review, carcinogenicity studies with sonidegib have not been conducted (Prod Info ODOMZO(R) oral capsules, 2015).
|
Genotoxicity |
A) Sonidegib was not found to be mutagenic in the Ames assay. It was also not clastogenic or aneugenic in the in vitro human chromosome aberration assay or in vivo rat bone marrow micronucleus assay (Prod Info ODOMZO(R) oral capsules, 2015).
