Administration of Pirtobrutinib

Pirtobrutinib tablets should be swallowed whole with water. The tablets should not be crushed, cut, or chewed before swallowing.1

Pirtobrutinib tablets should be taken at the same time each day and can be taken with or without food (Effect of Food on Pirtobrutinib).1

Eli Lilly and Company does not have information to support alternative administration of pirtobrutinib tablets.2

Recommended Dose of Pirtobrutinib

The recommended dosage of pirtobrutinib is 200 mg orally once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.1

Dose Modifications

Dose Modifications for Adverse Reactions

Recommended Dose Modifications of Pirtobrutinib for Adverse Reactions Based on a Starting Dosage of 200 mg  describes the recommended dose modifications for adverse reactions to pirtobrutinib.

Recommended Dose Modificationsa of Pirtobrutinib for Adverse Reactions Based on a Starting Dosage of 200 mg1 

If any of the following adverse reactions...

Occur for the...

Then...

And...

  • grade 3 or greater non-hematologic toxicityb
  • absolute neutrophil count < 1 to 0.5 x 109/L with fever and/or infection
  • absolute neutrophil count < 0.5 x 109/L lasting 7 or more days
  • platelet count < 50 to 25 x 109/L with bleeding
  • platelet count < 25 x 109/L

first time

interrupt pirtobrutinib until recovery to grade 1 or baseline

restart at original dose level (200 mg daily)b.

second time

restart at 100 mg daily.

third time

restart at 50 mg daily.

fourth time

discontinue pirtobrutinib 

do not restart.

aDose modification is not recommended for asymptomatic lymphocytosis. Asymptomatic lipase increase may not necessarily warrant dose modification.

bEvaluate the benefit-risk before resuming treatment at the same dose for a grade 4 non-hematological toxicity.

Dose Modifications for Patients With Severe Renal Impairment

For patients with severe renal impairment (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] 15-29 mL/min), reduce the pirtobrutinib dose to 100mg once daily if the current dose is 200mg once daily, otherwise reduce the dose by 50mg. If the current dosage is 50mg once daily, discontinue pirtobrutinib.1

No dosage adjustment of pirtobrutinib is recommended in patients with mild or moderate (eGFR 30-89 mL/min) renal impairment.1

 Dosage Modifications for Concomitant Use with Strong CYP3A Inhibitors

Avoid concomitant use of strong CYP3A inhibitors with pirtobrutinib. If concomitant use of a strong CYP3A inhibitor is unavoidable, reduce the pirtobrutinib dose by 50 mg. If the current dosage is 50 mg once daily, interrupt pirtobrutinib treatment for the duration of strong CYP3A inhibitor use. After discontinuation of a strong CYP3A inhibitor for 5 half-lives, resume the pirtobrutinib dose that was taken prior to initiating the strong CYP3A inhibitor.1

Dosage Modifications for Concomitant Use with CYP3A Inducers

Avoid concomitant use of strong or moderate CYP3A inducers with pirtobrutinib. If concomitant use with moderate CYP3A inducers is unavoidable and the current dosage of pirtobrutinib is 200 mg once daily, increase the dose to 300 mg. If the current dosage is 50 mg or 100 mg once daily, increase the dose by 50 mg.1

Dose Rationale for Pirtobrutinib

BRUIN is a global, multicenter phase 1/2 trial evaluating pirtobrutinib (LOXO-305) in patients with previously treated chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL), or non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) who have failed or are intolerant to standard of care (NCT03740529).3,4

Plasma Exposure of Pirtobrutinib Across Dosages displays the plasma concentrations of pirtobrutinib after various dosages. Plasma exposures exceeded minimal inhibitory concentration of 90% (IC90) of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) throughout the dosing interval at doses ≥100mg daily.5 

Plasma Exposure of Pirtobrutinib Across Dosages5

Figure 1 description: Graph illustrating pirtobrutinib versus time on day 8 shows plasma exposures exceeded minimal inhibitory concentration of 90% (IC90) for BTK throughout the dosing interval at doses ≥100mg daily (left). Graph illustrating estimated AUC versus dose shows plasma exposures were dose-dependent and linear (right). 

Abbreviations: AUC = area under the curve; BTK = Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor; IC90 = minimal inhibitory concentration of 90%; LOXO-305 = pirtobrutinib; QD = daily; WT = wild type.

After evaluation of the totality of efficacy, clinical pharmacokinetics (PK), and safety data, the study authors decided that further dose escalation was not medically justified. Therefore, no maximum tolerated dose (MTD) was established for pirtobrutinib. The study identified the recommended phase 2 dose as 200 mg daily.2 

Effect of Food on Pirtobrutinib

An assessment of food effects in healthy subjects showed that

  • a standard meal defined as approximately 50% carbohydrates, 30% fat, and 20% protein, decreased the maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) of pirtobrutinib by 20% and delayed time of maximal plasma concentration (Tmax) by 0.5 hours, and
  • a high-fat meal defined as approximately 800 to 1000 calories (with 150 calories from protein, 250 calories from carbohydrate, and 500 to 600 calories from fat) decreased the Cmax of pirtobrutinib by 23% and delayed Tmax by 1 hour.1,2

The analysis showed no effect on pirtobrutinib AUC from time 0 to infinity (AUC0-inf). Administration with meals was not considered to be associated with a clinically relevant effect on pirtobrutinib exposure.1,2
