General The safety and efficacy of duvelisib after prior idelalisib use has not been established. Infections Serious, including fatal infections have occurred in patients receiving duvelisib. The most common serious infections were pneumonia, sepsis, and lower respiratory infections.
8). Any infections should be treated prior to initiation of duvelisib. Patients should be monitored for infection, including respiratory signs and symptoms, throughout treatment. Patients should be advised to report any new or worsening infections promptly (see Table 1 for management).
Serious, including fatal, PJP pneumonia occurred in patients taking duvelisib. Prophylaxis for PJP should, therefore, be administered to all patients (see Table 1). CMV reactivation/infection occurred in patients taking duvelisib. Prophylactic antivirals should be considered during treatment to prevent CMV infection including CMV reactivation (see Table 1).
Recommended prophylaxis Any infections should be treated prior to initiation of duvelisib . Patients should be monitored for infection, including respiratory signs and symptoms, throughout treatment. Patients should be advised to report any new or worsening infections promptly (see Table 1 for management).
Prophylaxis for PJP should be provided during treatment with duvelisib. Following completion of duvelisib treatment, PJP prophylaxis should be continued until the absolute CD4+ T cell count is greater than 200 cells/μL. Duvelisib should be withheld in patients with suspected PJP of any grade and discontinued if PJP is confirmed.
Prophylactic antivirals should be considered during duvelisib treatment to prevent CMV infection including CMV reactivation. Diarrhoea or colitis Serious, including fatal diarrhoea or colitis occurred in patients receiving duvelisib.
The median time to onset of any grade diarrhoea or colitis was 4 months, with 75% of cases occurring by 8 months. 5 months. 8). Cutaneous reactions Serious, including fatal cutaneous reactions occurred in patients receiving duvelisib.

5 Transaminase elevation includes the preferred terms: alanine aminotransferase increased, aspartate aminotransferase increased, transaminases increased, hypertransaminasaemia, hepatocellular injury, hepatotoxicity Note: Doses withheld for > 42 days due to treatment-related toxicity will result in permanent discontinuation from treatment Description of selected adverse reactions Infections The most common serious infections were pneumonia, sepsis, and lower respiratory infections.
Median time to onset of any grade infection was 3 months (range: 1 day to 32 months), with 75% of cases occurring within 6 months. Infections should be treated prior to initiation of duvelisib. Patients should be advised to report any new or worsening signs and symptoms of infection.
4. Diarrhoea and colitis The median time to onset of any grade diarrhoea or colitis was 4 months (range: 1 day to 33 months), with 75% of cases occurring by 8 months. 5 months (range: 1 day to 29 months; 75th percentile: 1 month). Patients should be advised to report any new or worsening diarrhea.
Non-infectious pneumonitis Median time to onset of any grade pneumonitis was 4 months (range: 9 days to 27 months), with 75% of cases occurring within 9 months. Medicinal product no longer authorised Duvelisib should be withheld in patients who present with new or progressive pulmonary signs and symptoms such as cough, dyspnoea, hypoxia, interstitial infiltrates on a radiologic exam, or a decline by more than 5% in oxygen saturation and evaluate for etiology.
If the pneumonitis is infectious, patients may be restarted on duvelisib at the previous dose once the infection, pulmonary signs and symptoms resolve. Severe cutaneous reactions Median time to onset of any grade cutaneous reaction was 3 months (range: 1 day to 29 months, 75th percentile: 6 months), with a median event duration of 1 month (range: 1 day to 37 months, 75th percentile: 2 months).
Severe cutaneous reactions include rash, Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS), Toxic Epidermal Necrosis (TEN) and Drug Reaction with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms (DRESS). Reporting of suspected adverse reactions Reporting suspected adverse reactions after authorisation of the medicinal product is important.
It allows continued monitoring of the benefit/risk balance of the medicinal product. Healthcare professionals are asked to report any suspected adverse reactions via the national reporting system listed in Appendix V.
Fatal cases included drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN). 8). Presenting features for the serious cutaneous events were primarily described as pruritic, erythematous, or maculo-papular.
Less common presenting features include exanthem, desquamation, erythroderma, skin exfoliation, keratinocyte necrosis, and papular rash. Patients should be advised to report any new or worsening cutaneous reactions (see Table 1 for management).
Medicinal product no longer authorised Pneumonitis Serious, including fatal, pneumonitis without an apparent infectious cause occurred in patients receiving duvelisib. 8). The median event duration was 1 month, with 75% of cases resolving by 2 months (see Table 1 for management).
Hepatotoxicity Grade 3 and 4 ALT and/or AST elevation developed in patients receiving duvelisib. Two percent of patients had both an ALT or AST greater than 3 x ULN and total bilirubin greater than 2 x ULN. Median time to onset of any grade transaminase elevation was 2 months with a median event duration of 1 month.
Hepatic function should be monitored during treatment with duvelisib especially during the first three months of therapy on a monthly basis. This guideline applies for the patients who have only ALT and AST elevation. Neutropenia Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia occurred in patients receiving duvelisib.
The median time to onset of Grade ≥ 3 neutropenia was 2 months with 75% of cases occurring within 4 months. Neutrophil counts should be monitored at least every 2 weeks for the first 2 months of duvelisib. CYP3A4 inducers Duvelisib exposure may be reduced when co-administered with strong CYP3A inducers.
5). CYP3A substrates Duvelisib and its major metabolite, IPI-656, are strong CYP3A4 inhibitors. 5). When duvelisib is co- administered with other medicinal products, the Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC) for the other medicinal product must be consulted for the recommendations regarding co-administration with CYP3A4 inhibitors.
Concomitant treatment of duvelisib with sensitive CYP3A substrates should be avoided and alternative medicinal products that are less sensitive to CYP3A4 inhibition should be used if possible.
