2)] AML : The most common adverse reactions (≥ 20%) were febrile neutropenia, nausea, mucositis, vomiting, headache, petechiae, musculoskeletal pain, epistaxis, device-related infection, hyperglycemia, electrocardiogram (ECG) QT prolonged, and upper respiratory tract infection.
1 ) ASM, SM-AHN, or MCL : The most common adverse reactions (≥ 20%) were nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, edema, musculoskeletal pain, abdominal pain, fatigue, upper respiratory tract infection, constipation, pyrexia, headache, and dyspnea.

1)] . The overall median duration of exposure was 42 days (range, 2 to 576 days) for patients in the RYDAPT plus chemotherapy arm versus 34 days (range, 1 to 465 days) for patients in the placebo plus chemotherapy arm. On the RYDAPT plus chemotherapy arm, 35% of patients completed induction and consolidation therapy, compared to 25% of patients on the placebo plus chemotherapy arm.
The most frequent (incidence greater than or equal to 20%) adverse drug reactions (ADRs) in the RYDAPT plus chemotherapy arm were febrile neutropenia, nausea, mucositis, vomiting, headache, petechiae, musculoskeletal pain, epistaxis, device-related infection, hyperglycemia, ECG QT prolonged, and upper respiratory tract infections.
The most frequent Grade 3/4 adverse reactions (incidence ≥ 10%) were febrile neutropenia, device-related infection, and mucositis. The most frequent serious adverse reaction (≥ 10%) in patients in the RYDAPT plus chemotherapy arm was febrile neutropenia (16%), which occurred at a similar rate in the placebo arm (16%).
Discontinuation due to any adverse reaction occurred in 9% of patients in the RYDAPT arm versus 6% in the placebo arm. The most frequent (> 1%) Grade 3/4 adverse reactions leading to discontinuation in the RYDAPT arm was renal insufficiency (1%).
Excluding deaths due to disease progression, no fatal adverse reactions occurred in the study. Overall, the most frequent non-treatment related cause of death in the RYDAPT plus chemotherapy arm was sepsis (2%) and occurred at a similar rate in the placebo arm (2%).
Table 2 presents the frequency category of adverse reactions reported in the randomized trial in patients with newly diagnosed FLT3 mutated AML. Adverse reactions are listed according to body system. Within each body system, the adverse reactions are ranked by frequency, with the most frequent reactions first.
Table 3 presents the key laboratory abnormalities from the same randomized trial in patients with newly diagnosed FLT3 mutated AML.

Common adverse reactions (greater than or equal to 5% difference between the RYDAPT and placebo arms) reported for these patients included nausea (47% vs 18%), hyperglycemia (20% vs 13%), and vomiting (19% vs 5%). Systemic Mastocytosis Two single-arm, open-label multicenter trials (Study 2 and Study 3) evaluated the safety of RYDAPT (100 mg twice daily with food) as a single agent in 142 adult patients total with ASM, SM-AHN, or MCL.
The median age was 63 (range, 24 to 82), 63% had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1, and 75% had no hepatic impairment (bilirubin and AST ≤ upper limit of normal (ULN)] at baseline. 4 months (range, 0 to 81 months), with 34% treated for ≥ 24 months.
The most frequent adverse reactions (≥ 20%), excluding laboratory terms, were nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, edema, musculoskeletal pain, abdominal pain, fatigue, upper respiratory tract infection, constipation, pyrexia, headache, and dyspnea (Table 4).
Grade ≥ 3 adverse reactions reported in ≥ 5%, excluding laboratory terms, were fatigue, sepsis, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, pneumonia, diarrhea, febrile neutropenia, edema, dyspnea, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and renal insufficiency (Table 4).
Adverse reactions led to dose modifications (interruption or reduction) in 56% of patients. Among these, the most frequent adverse reactions (> 5%) were gastrointestinal symptoms, QT prolongation, neutropenia, pyrexia, thrombocytopenia, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, lipase increase, and fatigue.
6 months, with 75% of dose modifications first occurring within 5 months of starting treatment. Treatment discontinuation due to adverse reactions occurred in 21% of patients. The most frequent adverse reactions causing treatment discontinuation included infection, nausea or vomiting, QT prolongation, and gastrointestinal hemorrhage.
Serious adverse reactions were reported in 68% of patients, most commonly (≥ 20%) due to infections and gastrointestinal disorders. On-treatment deaths unrelated to the underlying malignancy occurred in 16 patients (11%), most commonly from infection (sepsis or pneumonia), followed by cardiac events.
Of the on-treatment deaths from disease progression, 4 were also attributable to infection. Table 4 summarizes the adverse reactions reported in ≥ 10% of the patients with advanced SM.

Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.
