Description

Pazopanib is a kinase inhibitor used for the treatment of adults with advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and advanced soft tissue sarcoma (STS) who have previously been treated with chemotherapy.

Limitations of Use: The efficacy of Pazopanib for the treatment of patients with adipocytic soft tissue sarcoma or gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) has not been demonstrated.

Dosage and Side Effects

The recommended dosage of Pazopanib is 800 mg (four 200 mg tablets) orally once daily without food (at least 60 minutes before or 120 minutes after a meal) until there is evidence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Swallow tablets whole. Do not crush tablets due to the potential for an increased rate of absorption, which may affect systemic exposure. The dosage needs to be modified for hepatic impairment and in those taking certain concomitant medicines. If a dose is missed, it need not be taken if it is < 12 hours until the very next dose.

The most common side effects of Pazopanib 200 mg tablets are

  • RCC: diarrhea, nausea, hypertension, hair color changes (depigmentation), anorexia, and vomiting. 
  • STS: fatigue, nausea, diarrhea, decreased weight, vomiting, hypertension, decreased appetite, headache, tumor pain, hair color changes, musculoskeletal pain, dyspnea, dysgeusia, and skin hypopigmentation.

Warning and Precautions

  • Serious and potentially life-threatening liver damage can occur. Regularly monitor liver function tests during Sorafenib treatment and as needed. If severe hepatotoxicity occurs, temporarily stop treatment and resume at a lower dose with weekly monitoring for 8 weeks. Alternatively, discontinue treatment permanently with weekly monitoring until hepatotoxicity resolves.
  • Regularly monitor patients at risk of QT interval prolongation. Conduct baseline and periodic electrocardiograms (ECGs) and electrolyte assessments. Correct any imbalances in potassium, magnesium, and calcium levels before starting and during Pazopanib 200 mg treatment.
  • Cardiac issues, such as reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and congestive heart failure, may arise with Pazopanib treatment. Monitor blood pressure and watch for signs of heart failure. Assess LVEF regularly in high-risk patients and adjust treatment accordingly. Consider withholding or discontinuing Pazopanib depending on the severity of cardiac dysfunction.
  • Venous thromboembolic events (VTEs), including potentially fatal pulmonary emboli (PE), have been noted. It is crucial to monitor for any indications or symptoms of VTE and PE. In the event of VTE occurrence, consider temporarily pausing Pazopanib treatment and then recommencing at the same dosage, or making the decision to discontinue treatment permanently based on the severity of the VTE. 
  • Severe infections, potentially leading to fatal outcomes, may arise, with or without neutropenia, during treatment with Pazopanib. Keep vigilant for any signs or symptoms of infection and initiate appropriate anti-infective treatment promptly. Consider temporarily halting or discontinuing Pazopanib therapy if necessary.
