Suggested dose modifications.

AEs AEs by grade Guidance
GI toxicities Grade 1/2 AEs Interrupt/modify dose at healthcare provider and patient discretion
Grade 3 nausea >72h
Grade 3/4 vomiting >24h
Grade 3 diarrhea >48h
Interrupt adagrasib until ≤ grade 1 or return to baseline, and decrease one dose level
Symptomatic grade 3/4 amylase or lipase elevation CT scan to rule in/out acute pancreatitis. Interrupt adagrasib until ≤ grade 1 or return to baseline, and may resume one dose level lower
Other grade 3 AEs Interrupt adagrasib until ≤ grade 1 or return to baseline, and may resume at same dose level or one dose level lower
Grade 4 diarrhea
Grade 3/4 pancreatitis
Other grade 4 AEs
Discontinue adagrasib
Hepatic toxicities Grade 1/2 AEs (not including grade 2 ALT/AST increase) Interrupt/modify dose at healthcare provider and patient discretion
Grade 2 ALT/AST increase Decrease one dose level
Grade 3 ALT/AST increase
Grade 3 increased bilirubin ≤22 days
Interrupt adagrasib until ≤ grade 1 or return to baseline, and decrease one dose level
Grade 4 ALT/AST increase
Hy’s Law Case
Grade 3 increased bilirubin >22 days
Discontinue adagrasib
Other Grade 3/4 AEs Interrupt adagrasib until ≤ grade 1 or return to baseline, and may resume at same dose level or one dose level lower
Cardiac toxicities QTcF prolongation >500 ms and increase >60 ms on at least 2 ECGs ≤22 days Interrupt adagrasib until ≤ grade 1 or return to baseline (<15 ms above baseline), check electrolytes, and decrease one or two dose levels
QTcF prolongation >500 ms and increase >60 ms on at least 2 ECGs >22 days
Decrease in LVEF ≥20% from baseline and below LLN
Symptomatic left ventricular systolic dysfunction
Discontinue adagrasib
Other grade 3/4 AEs Interrupt adagrasib until ≤ grade 1 or return to baseline, and may resume at one dose level lower
Other toxicities Grade 1/2 AEs Interrupt/modify dose at healthcare provider and patient discretion
Grade 3/4 fatigue or asthenia ≤8 days Interrupt adagrasib until ≤ grade 1 or return to baseline, and may resume at same or lower dose level
Grade 3/4 creatinine increased ≤22 days
Other lab-based grade 3/4 AEs
Interrupt adagrasib until ≤ grade 1 or return to baseline, and may resume at same dose level or one dose level lower
Grade 3/4 creatinine increased >22 days Discontinue adagrasib
Other grade 3 AEs Interrupt adagrasib until ≤ grade 1 or return to baseline, and resume one or more dose levels lower
Other grade 4 AEs Interrupt adagrasib until ≤ grade 1 or return to baseline, and may resume at a lower dose level (only if not life-threatening and can be managed; otherwise permanently discontinue adagrasib)

Sequential dose reduction steps: 400 mg BID, 600 mg once daily (may be split into BID dosing for tolerability).

Abbreviations: AE, adverse event; ALT, alanine aminotransferase; AST, aspartate aminotransferase; ECG, electrocardiogram; GI, gastrointestinal; LLN, lower limit of normal; LVEF, left ventricular ejection fraction; QTcF, QT corrected interval by Fredericia.
