  2. ® PISCESPazopanIb versus Sunitinib patient preferenCEStudy in treatment naïve locally advanced or metastatic renal cell carcinoma(A randomised, double-blind, cross-over patient preference study of pazopanib versus sunitinib in treatment-naïve locally advanced or metastatic renal cell carcinoma) GSK has been involved in the preparation of this presentation Prescribing information can be found at the end of the main presentation UK/PAZ/0030/13 February 2013 www.votrient.co.uk

  3. Pazopanib indication • Pazopanib is indicated in adults for the first-line treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and for patients who have received prior cytokine therapy for advanced disease1 • Pazopanib’s licence is conditional pending further clinical data from GSK, including the outcome of the head-to-head study (COMPARZ) of Pazopanib versus sunitinib. 1. Votrient Summary of Product Characteristics. January 2013

  4. Pazopanib NICE Technology Appraisal Guidance (TA 215)1 • Pazopanib is recommended as a first-line treatment option for people with advanced renal cell carcinoma • who have not received prior cytokine therapy and have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1 • and • under the terms of the agreed Patient Access Scheme which provides pazopanib with a 12.5% discount on the list price, and a possible future rebate linked to the outcome of the head-to-head COMPARZ trial 1. NICE. Pazopanib for the first-line treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma. Final appraisal guidance no. 215. February 2011.

  5. Pazopanib Scottish Medicines Consortium Advice No. 676/111 • Pazopanib is accepted for restricted use within NHS Scotland for the first-line treatment of advanced RCC. • This SMC advice takes account of the benefits of a Patient Access Scheme (PAS) that improves the cost-effectiveness of Pazopanib and is contingent upon the continuing availability of the PAS in NHS Scotland. 1. Scottish Medicines Consortium. Pazopanib 200mg, 400mg film-coated tablets (Votrient). Advice no. 676/11. March 2011

  6. Patient preference as a clinical endpoint • Previous oncology trials have shown a strong association between toxicity/tolerability and quality of life (QoL), suggesting that patient preference is a useful endpoint for cross-over studies1,2 • PISCES was designed to understand how the differences in tolerability between pazopanib and sunitinib translated into a patient preference • The cross-over design allows patients to be exposed to both drugs in a comparable health state and then choose which they prefer • This is the first study of its kind in advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) 1.

  30. PISCES summary • Significantly more patients preferred pazopanib over sunitinib (70% vs. 22%; p<0.001), with the remaining 8% of patients expressing no preference for either treatment • The most important reason for preferring pazopanib was less fatigue or no single reason • The most important reason for preferring sunitinib was no single reason • High level of concordance between patient and physician preference, with 61% of physicians preferring pazopanib over sunitinib (22% preference) • FACIT-fatigue tool showed that patients experienced statistically significantly less fatigue on pazopanib than sunitinib (mean scores differed by 2.5 points, p=0.002). However, this did not achieve the minimally important difference (MID) threshold of >3 points. • SQLQ showed patients experienced less hand, foot and mouth/throat soreness with pazopanib than sunitinib. Mean scores favoured pazopanib

  31. PISCES summary • Notable differences in some AEs between pazopanib and sunitinib include: • Diarrhoea (more frequent with pazopanib; 42% vs. 32%) • Stomatitis (more frequent with sunitinib; 16% vs. 5%) • Mucositis (more frequent with sunitinib; 22% vs. 16%) • Hand-foot syndrome (more frequent with sunitinib; 26% vs. 16%) • Asthenia (more frequent with sunitinib; 24% vs. 16%) • Interestingly, the incidence of fatigue as recorded as an AE was similar between the two drugs (29% vs. 30%) • Greater incidence of haematological toxicity with sunitinib • Pazopanib was associated with fewer dose reductions and discontinuations due to AEs

Special Warnings and Precautions Hepatic effects: Hepatic failure reported during pazopanib use; increases in serum transaminases (ALT, AST) and bilirubin also observed. Monitor liver function before initiation of treatment and ≥once every 4 weeks for first 4 months, and periodically thereafter. If transaminases ≤8xULN, continue pazopanib with weekly monitoring until they return to ≤Grade 1. If transaminases >8xULN, interrupt pazopanib until they return to ≤Grade 1. If transaminases >3xULN occur following re-introduction, discontinue pazopanib. If transaminases >3xULN occur concurrently with bilirubin >2xULN, perform bilirubin fractionation. If direct (conjugated) bilirubin is >35% of total, discontinue pazopanib. Concomitant use of pazopanib and simvastatin increases risk of ALT elevations: undertake with caution and close monitoring. Hypertension: Events of hypertension, including hypertensive crisis, have occurred in pazopanib studies. Control BP prior to initiating pazopanib. Monitor for hypertension early (≤1 week after starting treatment) and frequently thereafter. Manage elevated BP with anti-hypertensive therapy and pazopanib dose modification. Discontinue pazopanib if BP is persistently elevated (140/90 mmHg) or if arterial hypertension is severe and persists despite anti-hypertensive therapy and dose reduction. Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) / Reversible posterior leukoencephalopathy syndrome (RPLS): PRES/RPLS has been reported in association with pazopanib. Patients developing PRES/RPLS should permanently discontinue pazopanib. Cardiac dysfunction/heart failure: Consider risks/benefits of pazopanib in patients with pre-existing cardiac dysfunction. Safety and pharmacokinetics of pazopanib not studied in patients with moderate to severe heart failure or those with below normal LVEF. Events of cardiac dysfunction (e.g. CHF and LVEF decline) have occurred in pazopanib trials. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of CHF. Baseline and periodic LVEF evaluation recommended. QT prolongation and Torsade de Pointes: Use with caution in patients (i) with history of QT interval prolongation, (ii) taking antiarrythmics or other medications that may prolong QT interval or (iii) with relevant pre-existing cardiac disease. Baseline and periodic ECGs, and maintenance of electrolytes within normal range recommended. Arterial thrombotic events: Use with caution in patients at increased risk for these events. Base treatment decision on individual patient’s benefit/risk assessment. Venous thromboembolic events (VTEs): VTEs including venous thrombosis and fatal PE have occurred in pazopanib trials. Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA): (including thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura and haemolytic uraemic syndrome) has been reported in clinical trials of pazopanib. Patients developing TMA should permanently discontinue pazopanib. Reversal of effects of TMA has been observed after pazopanib treatment was discontinued. Haemorrhagic events: Not recommended in patients with history of haemoptysis, cerebral, or significant GI haemorrhage in past 6 months. Use with caution in patients with significant risk of haemorrhage. GI perforations and fistula: Use with caution in patients at risk for GI perforation or fistula. Wound healing: Stop treatment ≥7 days prior to surgery. Resume after surgery based on clinical judgement of adequate wound healing. Discontinue pazopanib in patients with wound dehiscence. Hypothyroidism: Baseline measurement of thyroid function recommended prior to start of pazopanib treatment; monitor periodically during treatment. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of thyroid dysfunction and manage as per standard medical practice. Proteinuria: Baseline and periodic urinalysis recommended. Monitor patients for worsening proteinuria. Discontinue pazopanib if Grade 4 proteinuria develops. Pneumothorax: Observe patients closely for signs and symptoms of pneumothorax. Infections: Cases of serious infection (with/without neutropenia) reported. Interactions Avoid concomitant use with strong inhibitors of CYP3A4, p-glycoprotein (P-gp) or breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) and CYP3A4 inducers. Hyperglycaemia observed during concomitant administration with ketoconazole.
