INDICATIONS AND USAGE

PEMAZYRE is a prescription medicine that is used to treat adults with:

  • bile duct cancer (cholangiocarcinoma) that has spread or cannot be removed by surgery:
    • who have already received a previous treatment, and
    • whose tumor has a certain type of abnormal FGFR2 gene
  • a type of blood cancer called myeloid/lymphoid neoplasms (MLNs):
    • when it has come back or did not respond to treatment, and
    • whose tumor has a certain type of abnormal FGFR1 gene

Your healthcare provider will test your cancer for certain types of abnormal FGFR1 or FGFR2 genes and make sure that PEMAZYRE is right for you.

It is not known if PEMAZYRE is safe and effective in children.

PEMAZYRE is approved based on tumor response and duration of response. There are ongoing studies to show whether PEMAZYRE can improve survival or symptoms.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

  • have vision or eye problems
  • have kidney problems
  • have liver problems
  • are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. PEMAZYRE can harm your unborn baby or cause loss of your pregnancy (miscarriage). You should not become pregnant during treatment with PEMAZYRE.

    Females who can become pregnant:

    • Your healthcare provider should do a pregnancy test before you start treatment with PEMAZYRE.
    • You should use an effective method of birth control during treatment and for 1 week after your last dose of PEMAZYRE. Talk to your healthcare provider about birth control methods that may be right for you.

  • Eye problems. Certain eye problems are common with PEMAZYRE but can also be serious. Eye problems include dry eye or inflamed eyes, inflamed cornea (front part of the eye), increased tears, and a disorder of the retina (an internal part of the eye).
