SUMMARY OF PRODUCT CHARACTERISTICS 

 



 

2 

This medicinal product is subject to additional monitoring. This will allow quick identification of new 

safety information. Healthcare professionals are asked to report any suspected adverse reactions. See section 

4.8 for how to report adverse reactions. 
 

 

1. NAME OF THE MEDICINAL PRODUCT 

 

COMETRIQ 20 mg hard capsules 

 

 

2. QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE COMPOSITION 

 

One hard capsule contains cabozantinib (S)-malate equivalent to 20 mg cabozantinib.  

For the full list of excipients, see section 6.1. 

 

 
3. PHARMACEUTICAL FORM 

 

Hard capsule. 

The hard capsules are grey with “XL184 20mg” printed in black on the body of the capsule. The capsule 

contains an off-white to white powder. 

 

 

4. CLINICAL PARTICULARS 

 

4.1 Therapeutic indications 

 

COMETRIQ is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with progressive, unresectable locally advanced 

or metastatic medullary thyroid carcinoma. 

 

For patients in whom rearranged during transfection (RET) mutation status is not known or is negative, a 

possible lower benefit should be taken into account before individual treatment decision (see important 

information in sections 4.4 and 5.1). 

 
4.2 Posology and method of administration 

 

Therapy with COMETRIQ should be initiated by a physician experienced in the administration of anticancer 

medicinal products.  

 

Posology 

COMETRIQ (cabozantinib) capsules and CABOMETYX (cabozantinib) tablets are not bioequivalent and 

should not be used interchangeably (see section 5.2).  

The recommended dose of COMETRIQ is 140 mg once daily, taken as one 80 mg orange capsule and three 

20 mg grey capsules. Treatment should continue until the patient is no longer clinically benefiting from 

therapy or until unacceptable toxicity occurs. 

 

It should be expected that a majority of patients treated with COMETRIQ will require one or more dose 

adjustments (reduction and/or interruption) due to toxicity. Patients should therefore be closely monitored 

during the first eight weeks of therapy (see section 4.4). 

 

Management of suspected adverse drug reactions may require temporary interruption and/or dose reduction 

of COMETRIQ therapy. When dose reduction is necessary, it is recommended to reduce to 100 mg daily, 

taken as one 80 mg orange capsule and one 20 mg grey capsule, and then to 60 mg daily, taken as three 

20 mg grey capsules.  

 

Dose interruptions are recommended for management of CTCAE grade 3 or greater toxicities or intolerable 

grade 2 toxicities.  



 

3 

Dose reductions are recommended for events that, if persistent, could become serious or intolerable. 

 

As most events can occur early in the course of treatment, the physician should evaluate the patient closely 

during the first eight weeks of treatment to determine if dose modifications are warranted. Events that 

generally have early onset include hypocalcaemia, hypokalaemia, thrombocytopenia, hypertension, palmar-

plantar erythrodysaesthesia syndrome (PPES), and gastrointestinal (GI) events (abdominal or mouth pain, 

mucosal inflammation, constipation, diarrhoea, vomiting).  

 

The occurrence of some serious adverse reactions (like GI fistula) might be dependent on the cumulative 

dose and might present in a later stage of treatment. 

 

If a patient misses a dose, the missed dose should not be taken if it is less than 12 hours before the next dose. 

 

Concomitant medicinal products 

Concomitant medicinal products that are strong inhibitors of CYP3A4 should be used with caution, and 

chronic use of concomitant medicinal products that are strong inducers of CYP3A4 should be avoided (see 

sections 4.4 and 4.5). 

 

Selection of an alternative concomitant medicinal product with no or minimal potential to induce or inhibit 

CYP3A4 should be considered. 

 

Elderly patients 

No specific dose adjustment for the use of cabozantinib in older people (≥ 65 years) is recommended. 

However, a trend in increased rate of SAEs has been observed in subjects aged 75 years and older. 

 

Race 

There is little experience with cabozantinib in non-White patients.  

 

Renal impairment  

Cabozantinib should be used with caution in patients with mild or moderate renal impairment.  

Cabozantinib is not recommended for use in patients with severe renal impairment as safety and efficacy 

have not been established in this population. 

 

Hepatic impairment 

In patients with mild or moderate hepatic impairment the recommended dose of cabozantinib is 60 mg once 

daily. Close monitoring of overall safety is recommended in these patients (see section 5.2) as dose 

adjustment or interruption may be required. Cabozantinib is not recommended for use in patients with severe 

hepatic impairment as safety and efficacy have not been established in this population. 

 

Patients with cardiac impairment 

There is limited data in patients with cardiac impairment. No specific dosing recommendations can be made. 

 

Paediatric population 

The safety and efficacy of cabozantinib in children aged <18 years have not yet been established. No data are 

available. 

 

Method of administration 

COMETRIQ is for oral use. The capsules should be swallowed whole and not opened. Patients should be 

instructed to not eat anything for at least 2 hours before through 1 hour after taking COMETRIQ. 

 

4.3 Contraindications 

 

Hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients listed in section 6.1. 

 



 

4 

4.4 Special warnings and precautions for use 

 

Dose reductions and dose interruptions occurred in 79% and 72%, respectively, of cabozantinib-treated 

patients in the pivotal clinical study. Two dose reductions were required in 41% of patients. The median time 

to first dose reduction was 43 days, and to first dose interruption was 33 days. Close monitoring of patients is 

therefore recommended during the first eight weeks of therapy (see section 4.2). 

 

Perforations, fistulas, and intra-abdominal abscesses  

Serious gastrointestinal (GI) perforations and fistulas, sometimes fatal, and intra-abdominal abscesses have 

been observed with cabozantinib. Patients who have had recent radiotherapy, have inflammatory bowel 

disease (e.g., Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, peritonitis, or diverticulitis), have tumour infiltration of 

trachea, bronchi, or oesophagus, have complications from prior GI surgery (particularly when associated 

with delayed or incomplete healing), or have complications from prior radiation therapy to the thoracic 

cavity (including mediastinum) should be carefully evaluated before initiating cabozantinib therapy and 

subsequently they should be monitored closely for symptoms of perforations and fistulas. Non-GI fistula 
should be ruled out as appropriate in cases of onset of mucositis after start of therapy. Cabozantinib should 

be discontinued in patients who experience a GI perforation or a GI or non-GI fistula. 

 

Thromboembolic events 

Events of venous thromboembolism, including pulmonary embolism and events of arterial 

thromboembolism, sometimes fatal, have been observed with cabozantinib. Cabozantinib should be used 

with caution in patients who are at risk for, or who have a history of, these events. Cabozantinib should be 

discontinued in patients who develop an acute myocardial infarction or any other clinically significant 

arterial thromboembolic complication. 

 

Haemorrhage 

Severe haemorrhage, sometimes fatal, has been observed with cabozantinib. Patients who have evidence of 

involvement of the trachea or bronchi by tumour or a history of haemoptysis prior to treatment initiation 

should be carefully evaluated before initiating cabozantinib therapy. Cabozantinib should not be 

administered to patients with serious haemorrhage or recent haemoptysis. 

 

Aneurysms and artery dissections 

The use of VEGF pathway inhibitors in patients with or without hypertension may promote the formation of 

aneurysms and/or artery dissections. Before initiating cabozantinib, this risk should be carefully considered 

in patients with risk factors such as hypertension or history of aneurysm. 

 

Gastrointestinal (GI) disorders  

Diarrhoea, nausea/vomiting, decreased appetite, and stomatitis/oral pain were some of the most commonly 

reported GI adverse reactions (see section 4.8). Prompt medical management, including supportive care with 

antiemetics, antidiarrhoeals, or antacids, should be instituted to prevent dehydration, electrolyte imbalances 

and weight loss. Dose interruption or reduction, or permanent discontinuation of cabozantinib should be 

considered in case of persistent or recurrent significant GI adverse reactions (see section 4.2). 

 

Wound complications 

Wound complications have been observed with cabozantinib. Cabozantinib treatment should be stopped at 

least 28 days prior to scheduled surgery, including dental surgery or invasive dental procedures, if possible. 

The decision to resume cabozantinib therapy after surgery should be based on clinical judgment of adequate 

wound healing. Cabozantinib should be discontinued in patients with wound healing complications requiring 

medical intervention. 

 

Hypertension 

Hypertension has been observed with cabozantinib. All patients should be monitored for hypertension and 

treated as needed with standard anti-hypertensive therapy. In the case of persistent hypertension despite use 

of anti-hypertensives, the cabozantinib dose should be reduced. Cabozantinib should be discontinued if 

hypertension is severe and persistent despite anti-hypertensive therapy and dose reduction of cabozantinib.  

In case of hypertensive crisis, cabozantinib should be discontinued. 

 



 

5 

Osteonecrosis 

Events of osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) have been observed with cabozantinib. An oral examination should 

be performed prior to initiation of cabozantinib and periodically during cabozantinib therapy. Patients should 

be advised regarding oral hygiene practice. Cabozantinib treatment should be held at least 28 days prior to 

scheduled dental surgery or invasive dental procedures, if possible. Caution should be used in patients 

receiving agents associated with ONJ, such as bisphosphonates. Cabozantinib should be discontinued in 

patients who experience ONJ. 

 

Palmar-plantar erythrodysaesthesia syndrome  

Palmar-plantar erythrodysaesthesia syndrome (PPES) has been observed with cabozantinib. When PPES is 

severe, interruption of treatment with cabozantinib should be considered. Cabozantinib should be restarted 

with a lower dose when PPES has been resolved to grade 1. 

 

Proteinuria 

Proteinuria has been observed with cabozantinib. Urine protein should be monitored regularly during 

cabozantinib treatment. Cabozantinib should be discontinued in patients who develop nephrotic syndrome. 

 

Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome 

Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) has been observed with cabozantinib. PRES should be 

considered in any patient presenting with symptoms suggestive of the diagnosis, including seizures, 

headache, visual disturbances, confusion or altered mental function. Cabozantinib treatment should be 

discontinued in patients with PRES. 

 

Prolongation of QT interval 

Cabozantinib should be used with caution in patients with a history of QT interval prolongation, patients who 

are taking antiarrhythmics, or patients with relevant pre-existing cardiac disease, bradycardia, or electrolyte 

disturbances. When using cabozantinib, periodic monitoring with on-treatment ECGs and electrolytes (serum 

calcium, potassium, and magnesium) should be considered. Concomitant treatment with strong CYP3A4 

inhibitors, which may increase cabozantinib plasma concentrations, should be used with caution. 

 

CYP3A4 inducers and inhibitors 

Cabozantinib is a CYP3A4 substrate. Concurrent administration of cabozantinib with the strong CYP3A4 

inhibitor ketoconazole resulted in an increase in cabozantinib plasma exposure. Caution is required when 

administering cabozantinib with agents that are strong CYP3A4 inhibitors. Concurrent administration of 

cabozantinib with the strong CYP3A4 inducer rifampicin resulted in a decrease in cabozantinib plasma 

exposure. Therefore chronic administration of agents that are strong CYP3A4 inducers with cabozantinib 

should be avoided (see sections 4.2 and 4.5). 

 

P-glycoprotein substrates  

Cabozantinib was an inhibitor (IC50 = 7.0 μM), but not a substrate, of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) transport 

activities in a bi-directional assay system using MDCK-MDR1 cells. Therefore, cabozantinib may have the 

potential to increase plasma concentrations of co-administered substrates of P-gp. Subjects should be 

cautioned regarding taking a P-gp substrate (e.g., fexofenadine, aliskiren, ambrisentan, dabigatran etexilate, 

digoxin, colchicine, maraviroc, posaconazole, ranolazine, saxagliptin, sitagliptin, talinolol, tolvaptan) while 

receiving cabozantinib. 
 

MRP2 inhibitors 

Administration of MRP2 inhibitors may result in increases in cabozantinib plasma concentrations. Therefore, 

concomitant use of MRP2 inhibitors (e.g. cyclosporine, efavirenz, emtricitabine) should be approached with 

caution. 

 

4.5 Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction 

 

Effect of other medicinal products on cabozantinib 

 



 

6 

CYP3A4 inhibitors and inducers 

Administration of the strong CYP3A4 inhibitor ketoconazole (400 mg daily for 27 days) to healthy 

volunteers decreased cabozantinib clearance (by 29%) and increased single-dose plasma cabozantinib 

exposure (AUC) by 38%. Therefore co-administration of strong CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ritonavir, 

itraconazole, erythromycin, clarithromycin, grapefruit juice) with cabozantinib should be approached with 

caution.  

 

Administration of the strong CYP3A4 inducer rifampicin (600 mg daily for 31 days) to healthy volunteers 

increased cabozantinib clearance (4.3-fold) and decreased single-dose plasma cabozantinib exposure (AUC) 

by 77%. Chronic co-administration of strong CYP3A4 inducers (e.g., phenytoin, carbamazepine, rifampicin, 

phenobarbital or herbal preparations containing St. John’s Wort [Hypericum perforatum]) with cabozantinib 

should therefore be avoided.  

 

Gastric pH modifying agents 

Co-administration of proton pump inhibitor (PPI) esomeprazole (40 mg daily for 6 days) with a single dose 

of 100 mg cabozantinib to healthy volunteers resulted in no clinically-significant effect on plasma 

cabozantinib exposure (AUC). No dose adjustment is indicated when gastric pH modifying agents (i.e., PPIs, 

H2 receptor antagonists, and antacids) are co-administered with cabozantinib. 

 

MRP2 inhibitors 

In vitro data demonstrate that cabozantinib is a substrate of MRP2. Therefore, administration of MRP2 

inhibitors may result in increases in cabozantinib plasma concentrations.  

 

Bile salt-sequestering agents 

Bile salt-sequestering agents such as cholestyramine and cholestagel may interact with cabozantinib and may 

impact absorption (or reabsorption) resulting in potentially decreased exposure (see section 5.2). The clinical 

significance of these potential interactions is unknown. 

 

Effect of cabozantinib on other medicinal products 

The effect of cabozantinib on the pharmacokinetics of contraceptive steroids has not been investigated. As 

unchanged contraceptive effect may not be guaranteed, an additional contraceptive method, such as a barrier 

method, is recommended. 

Because of high plasma protein binding levels of cabozantinib (section 5.2) a plasma protein displacement 

interaction with warfarin may be possible. In case of such combination, INR values should be monitored. 

 

P-glycoprotein substrates  

Cabozantinib was an inhibitor (IC50 = 7.0 μM), but not a substrate, of P-gp transport activities in a 

bi-directional assay system using MDCK-MDR1 cells. Therefore, cabozantinib may have the potential to 

increase plasma concentrations of co-administered substrates of P-gp. Subjects should be cautioned 

regarding taking a P-gp substrate (e.g., fexofenadine, aliskiren, ambrisentan, dabigatran etexilate, digoxin, 

colchicine, maraviroc, posaconazole, ranolazine, saxagliptin, sitagliptin, talinolol, tolvaptan) while receiving 

cabozantinib. 

 

4.6 Fertility, pregnancy and lactation 

 

Women of childbearing potential/Contraception in males and females 

Women of childbearing potential must be advised to avoid pregnancy while on cabozantinib. Female 

partners of male patients taking cabozantinib must also avoid pregnancy. Effective methods of contraception 

should be used by male and female patients and their partners during therapy, and for at least 4 months after 

completing therapy. Because oral contraceptives might possibly not be considered as “effective methods of 

contraception,” they should be used together with another method, such as a barrier method (see section 4.5). 

 

Pregnancy 

There are no studies in pregnant women using cabozantinib. Studies in animals have shown embryo-foetal 

and teratogenic effects (see section 5.3). The potential risk for humans is unknown. Cabozantinib should not 

be used during pregnancy unless the clinical condition of the woman requires treatment with cabozantinib. 

 



 

7 

Breast-feeding 

It is not known whether cabozantinib and/or its metabolites are excreted in human milk. Because of the 

potential harm to the infant, mothers should discontinue breast-feeding during treatment with cabozantinib, 

and for at least 4 months after completing therapy. 

 

Fertility 

There are no data on human fertility. Based on non-clinical safety findings, male and female fertility may be 

compromised by treatment with cabozantinib (see section 5.3). Both men and women should be advised to 

seek advice and consider fertility preservation before treatment. 

 

4.7 Effects on ability to drive and use machines 

 

Cabozantinib has minor influence on the ability to drive and use machines. Adverse reactions such as fatigue 

and weakness have been associated with cabozantinib.  Therefore, caution should be recommended when 

driving or operating machines. 

 

4.8 Undesirable effects 

 

Summary of safety profile 

The most common serious adverse reactions associated with cabozantinib are pneumonia, mucosal 
inflammation, hypocalcaemia, dysphagia, dehydration, pulmonary embolism, and hypertension. The most 

frequent adverse reactions of any grade (experienced by at least 20% of patients) included diarrhoea, PPES, 

weight decreased, decreased appetite, nausea, fatigue, dysgeusia, hair colour changes, hypertension, 

stomatitis, constipation, vomiting, mucosal inflammation, asthenia, and dysphonia.

thyroid stimulating hormone increased. 
e Abdominal pain, abdominal discomfort, abdominal pain upper and abdominal pain lower 
f Hypertension and blood pressure increased. 
g Hypotension and blood pressure decreased. 

 

Description of selected adverse reactions 

A thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) value above normal after first dose was observed in 57% of patients 

on cabozantinib versus 19% of patients on placebo (regardless of baseline values). Ninety-two percent of 

patients on the cabozantinib arm had a prior thyroidectomy, and 89% were taking thyroid hormones prior to 

first dose. 

 

An increase from baseline in corrected QT interval by Fridericia (QTcF) of 10 - 15 ms on Day 29 (but not on 

Day 1) following initiation of cabozantinib treatment (at a dose of 140 mg qd) was observed in a controlled 

clinical study in cancer patients (see section 4.4). This effect was not associated with a change in cardiac 

wave form morphology or new rhythms. No cabozantinib-treated subjects had a QTcF >500 ms. 

 

Please refer to section 4.4 for recommendations about the monitoring and management of the following 

adverse events: perforations, fistulas, and intra-abdominal abscesses; thromboembolic events; haemorrhage; 

aneurysms and artery dissections; gastrointestinal disorders; wound complications; hypertension; 

osteonecrosis; palmar-plantar erythrodysaesthesia syndrome; proteinuria; and posterior reversible 

encephalopathy syndrome. 

 

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. 

 

4.9 Overdose 

 

There is no specific treatment for cabozantinib overdose and possible symptoms of overdose have not been 

established. 

 

In the event of suspected overdose, cabozantinib should be withheld and supportive care instituted. 

Metabolic clinical laboratory parameters should be monitored at least weekly or as deemed clinically 

appropriate to assess any possible changing trends. Adverse reactions associated with overdose are to be 

treated symptomatically.

5. PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES 

 

5.1  Pharmacodynamic properties 

 

Pharmacotherapeutic group: antineoplastic agent, protein kinase inhibitor, ATC code: L01XE26. 

 

Mechanism of action 

Cabozantinib is a small molecule that inhibits multiple receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) implicated in 

tumour growth and angiogenesis, pathologic bone remodelling, and metastatic progression of cancer. 

Cabozantinib was evaluated for its inhibitory activity against a variety of kinases and was identified as an 

inhibitor of MET (hepatocyte growth factor receptor protein) and VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) 

receptors. In addition, cabozantinib inhibits other tyrosine kinases including RET, the GAS6 receptor (AXL), 

the stem cell factor receptor (KIT), and Fms-like tyrosine kinase-3 (FLT3). 

 

Pharmacodynamic effects 

Cabozantinib exhibited dose-related tumour growth inhibition, tumour regression, and/or inhibited metastasis 

in a broad range of preclinical tumour models. 

 

Efficacy with cabozantinib was observed in medullary thyroid cancer patients with wild-type or mutant RET. 

 

Clinical data in medullary thyroid cancer 

A multi-center, randomised double-blind study comparing cabozantinib (N = 219) with placebo (N = 111) 

was conducted in patients with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic MTC and documented 

radiographic disease progression within 14 months prior to study entry. The primary objective was to 

compare progression-free survival (PFS) in patients receiving cabozantinib versus patients receiving placebo. 

The secondary objectives were to compare overall response rate (ORR) and overall survival (OS). 

Centralized, independent, blinded review of the imaging data was used in the assessment of PFS and ORR. 

Patients were treated until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. 

 

The result of the PFS analysis, based on the central review RECIST assessment, demonstrated a statistically 

significant difference in the duration of PFS with cabozantinib versus placebo: the median duration was 

11.2 months for subjects in the cabozantinib arm versus 4.0 months for subjects in the placebo arm (stratified 

Hazard Ratio [HR] = 0.28; 95% CI: 0.19, 0.40; p<0.0001; Figure 1). The PFS results were consistent across 

all baseline and demographic subgroups evaluated, including prior therapy with tyrosine kinase inhibitors 

(which may have consisted of agents targeting pathways associated with anti-angiogenesis), RET mutational 

status (including subjects documented not to have RET mutations), prior anticancer or radiotherapy status, or 

the existence of bone metastases. 

 

The ORR was 27.9% and 0% for subjects in the cabozantinib arm and placebo arm, respectively (p<0.0001; 

Table 2). The median duration of objective responses was 14.6 months (95% CI: 11.1, 17.5) for subjects in 

the cabozantinib arm.

The final analysis of OS was conducted after 218 events (deaths) occurred and shows a trend for an increase 

in median survival of 5.5 months in the cabozantinib arm: median (months) 26.6 cabozantinib vs. 

21.1 placebo (HR = 0.85 [95% CI: 0.64, 1.12], p = 0.2409).

RET mutation status 

Of the 215 subjects with sufficient data to determine mutational status, 78.6% (n=169) were classified as 

RET mutation positive (126 of which were positive for the M918T mutation), and 21.4% (n=46) were 

classified as RET mutation negative. For an additional 115 subjects the RET mutational status could not be 

determined or was unclear. All three subgroups showed increased PFS in the cabozantinib arm compared to 

the placebo arm (HRs of 0.23, 0.53, and 0.30 for RET mutation positive, negative, and unknown subgroups, 

respectively). The objective response rates measured in these subgroups were generally consistent with the 

PFS results, with the RET mutation positive, negative, and unknown subgroups showing tumour response 

rates of 32%, 22%, and 25%, respectively. 

 

Further genetic analysis showed that a small proportion of patients harboured somatic tumour mutations in 

HRAS, KRAS, or NRAS. These patients (n=16) showed significant prolongation of PFS (HR of 0.15) and an 

objective response rate of 31%. RET mutation negative patients with no evidence of RAS mutation (n=33) 

showed a decreased PFS benefit on cabozantinib (HR of 0.87) and a lower response rate of 18% compared to 

other mutational subgroups. 

 

A significant improvement in OS was observed in the subgroup of RET M918T mutation positive patients 

(n=81/219 cabozantinib arm): 44.3 months in the cabozantinib arm vs. 18.9 months in the placebo arm 

(HR = 0.60, p = 0.0255). There was no improvement in OS for the RET M918T negative and unknown 

subgroups.

Paediatric population 

The European Medicines Agency has deferred the obligation to submit the results of studies with 

cabozantinib in one or more subsets of the paediatric population in the treatment of malignant solid tumours 

(see section 4.2 for information on paediatric use). 

 

This medicinal product has been authorised under a so-called ‘conditional approval’ scheme. This means that 

further evidence on this medicinal product is awaited. 

The European Medicines Agency will review new information on this medicinal product at least every year 

and this SmPC will be updated as necessary 

 

5.2 Pharmacokinetic properties 

 

Absorption 

Following oral administration of cabozantinib, peak cabozantinib plasma concentrations are reached at 2 to 

5 hours post-dose. Plasma-concentration time profiles show a second absorption peak approximately 

24 hours after administration, which suggests that cabozantinib may undergo enterohepatic recirculation. 

 

Repeat daily dosing of cabozantinib at 140 mg for 19 days resulted in an approximately a 4- to 5-fold mean 

cabozantinib accumulation (based on AUC) compared to a single dose administration; steady state is 

achieved by approximately Day 15.   

 

A high-fat meal moderately increased Cmax and AUC values (41% and 57%, respectively) relative to fasted 

conditions in healthy volunteers administered a single 140 mg oral cabozantinib dose. There is no 

information on the precise food-effect when taken 1 hour after administration of cabozantinib. 

Bioequivalence could not be demonstrated between the cabozantinib capsule and tablet formulations 

following a single 140 mg dose in healthy subjects. A 19% increase in the Cmax of the tablet formulation 

(CABOMETYX) compared to the capsule formulation (COMETRIQ) was observed. AUC were similar 

between cabozantinib tablet (CABOMETYX) and capsule (COMETRIQ) formulations (<10% difference). 

 

Distribution 

Cabozantinib is highly protein bound in vitro in human plasma (≥ 99.7%). Based on the population-

pharmacokinetic (PK) model, the volume of distribution (V/F) is approximately 349 L (SE: ± 2.73%). 

Protein binding was not altered in subjects with mild or moderately impaired renal or hepatic function.

Biotransformation 

Cabozantinib was metabolized in vivo. Four metabolites were present in plasma at exposures (AUC) greater 

than 10% of parent: XL184-N-oxide, XL184 amide cleavage product, XL184 monohydroxy sulfate, and 

6-desmethyl amide cleavage product sulfate. Two non-conjugated metabolites (XL184-N-oxide and XL184 

amide cleavage product), which possess <1% of the on-target kinase inhibition potency of parent 

cabozantinib, each represent <10% of total drug-related plasma exposure. 

 

Cabozantinib is a substrate for CYP3A4 metabolism in vitro, as a neutralizing antibody to CYP3A4 inhibited 

formation of metabolite XL184 N-oxide by >80% in a NADPH-catalyzed human liver microsomal (HLM) 

incubation; in contrast, neutralizing antibodies to CYP1A2, CYP2A6, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C19, 

CYP2D6 and CYP2E1 had no effect on cabozantinib metabolite formation. A neutralizing antibody to 

CYP2C9 showed a minimal effect on cabozantinib metabolite formation (ie, a <20% reduction). 

 

Elimination 

The plasma terminal half-life of cabozantinib in single dose studies in healthy volunteers is approximately 

120 hours. Mean clearance (CL/F) at steady-state in cancer patients was estimated to be 4.4 L/hr in a 

population PK analysis. Within a 48-day collection period after a single dose of 14C-cabozantinib in healthy 

volunteers, approximately 81% of the total administered radioactivity was recovered with 54% in faeces and 

27% in urine.  

 

Pharmacokinetics in special patient populations 

 

Renal impairment 

Results from a study in patients with renal impairment indicate that the ratios of geometric LS mean for 

plasma cabozantinib, Cmax and AUC0-inf were 19% and 30% higher, for subjects with mild renal impairment 

(90% CI for Cmax 91.60% to 155.51%; AUC0-inf 98.79% to 171.26%) and 2% and 6-7% higher (90% CI for 

Cmax 78.64% to 133.52%; AUC0-inf 79.61% to 140.11%), for subjects with moderate renal impairment 

compared to subjects with normal renal function. Patients with severe renal impairment have not been 

studied. 

 

Hepatic impairment 

Results from a study in patients with hepatic impairment indicate that exposure (AUC0-inf) increased by 81% 

and 63% in subjects with mild and moderate hepatic impairment, respectively (90% CI for AUC0-inf: 

121.44% to 270.34% for mild and 107.37% to 246.67% for moderate). Patients with severe hepatic 

impairment have not been studied. 

 

Race 

No data are available to determine a difference in PK based on race. 

 

5.3 Preclinical safety data 

 

Adverse reactions not observed in clinical studies, but seen in animals at exposure levels similar to clinical 

exposure levels and with possible relevance to clinical use were as follows: 

 

In rat and dog repeat-dose toxicity studies up to 6 months duration, target organs for toxicity were GI tract, 

bone marrow, lymphoid tissues, kidney, adrenal and reproductive tract tissues. The no observed adverse 

effect level (NOAEL) for these findings were below human clinical exposure levels at intended therapeutic 

dose. 

 

Cabozantinib has shown no mutagenic or clastogenic potential in a standard battery of genotoxicity assays.  

The carcinogenic potential of cabozantinib has been evaluated in two species: rasH2 transgenic mice and 

Sprague-Dawley rats. In the 2-year rat carcinogenicity study, cabozantinib-related neoplastic findings 

consisted of an increased incidence of benign pheochromocytoma, alone or in combination with malignant 

pheochromocytoma/complex malignant pheochromocytoma of the adrenal medulla in both sexes at 

exposures well below the intended exposure in humans. The clinical relevance of the observed neoplastic 

lesions in rats is uncertain, but likely to be low. Cabozantinib was not carcinogenic in the rasH2 mouse 

model at a slightly higher exposure than the intended human therapeutic exposure.  



 

16 

Fertility studies in rats have shown reduced male and female fertility. Further, hypospermatogenesis was 

observe in male dogs at exposure levels below human clinical exposure levels at intended therapeutic dose.  

 

Embryo-foetal development studies were performed in rats and rabbits. In rats, cabozantinib caused 

postimplantation loss, foetal oedema, cleft palate/lip, dermal aplasia and kinked or rudimentary tail. In 

rabbits, cabozantinib produced foetal soft tissue changes (reduced spleen size, small or missing intermediate 

lung lobe) and increased foetal incidence of total malformations. NOAEL for embryo-foetal toxicity and 

teratogenic findings were below human clinical exposure levels at intended therapeutic dose.   

 

Juvenile rats (comparable to a >2 year old pediatric population) administered cabozantinib showed increased 

WBC parameters, decreased haematopoiesis, pubescent/immature female reproductive system (without 

delayed vaginal opening), tooth abnormalities, reduced bone mineral content and density, liver pigmentation 

and bile duct hyperplasia. Findings in uterus/ovaries and decreased haematopoiesis appeared to be transient, 

while effects on bone parameters and liver pigmentation were sustained. Evaluations in juvenile rats 

(comparable to a <2 year old pediatric population) have not been performed.

4. CLINICAL PARTICULARS 

 
4.1 Therapeutic indications 

 

COMETRIQ is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with progressive, unresectable locally advanced 

or metastatic medullary thyroid carcinoma. 

 

For patients in whom rearranged during transfection (RET) mutation status is not known or is negative, a 

possible lower benefit should be taken into account before individual treatment decision (see important 

information in sections 4.4 and 5.1). 

 

4.2 Posology and method of administration 

 
Therapy with COMETRIQ should be initiated by a physician experienced in the administration of anticancer 

medicinal products.  

 

Posology 

COMETRIQ (cabozantinib) capsules and CABOMETYX (cabozantinib) tablets are not bioequivalent and 

should not be used interchangeably (see section 5.2).  

The recommended dose of COMETRIQ is 140 mg once daily, taken as one 80 mg orange capsule and three 

20 mg grey capsules. Treatment should continue until the patient is no longer clinically benefiting from 

therapy or until unacceptable toxicity occurs. 

 

It should be expected that a majority of patients treated with COMETRIQ will require one or more dose 

adjustments (reduction and/or interruption) due to toxicity. Patients should therefore be closely monitored 

during the first eight weeks of therapy (see section 4.4). 

 



 

19 

Management of suspected adverse drug reactions may require temporary interruption and/or dose reduction 

of COMETRIQ therapy. When dose reduction is necessary, it is recommended to reduce to 100 mg daily, 

taken as one 80 mg orange capsule and one 20 mg grey capsule, and then to 60 mg daily, taken as three 

20 mg grey capsules.  
 
Dose interruptions are recommended for management of CTCAE grade 3 or greater toxicities or intolerable 

grade 2 toxicities.  

 

Dose reductions are recommended for events that, if persistent, could become serious or intolerable. 

 

As most events can occur early in the course of treatment, the physician should evaluate the patient closely 

during the first eight weeks of treatment to determine if dose modifications are warranted. Events that 

generally have early onset include hypocalcaemia, hypokalaemia, thrombocytopenia, hypertension, palmar-

plantar erythrodysaesthesia syndrome (PPES), and gastrointestinal (GI) events (abdominal or mouth pain, 

mucosal inflammation, constipation, diarrhoea, vomiting).  

 

The occurrence of some serious adverse reactions (like GI fistula) might be dependent on the cumulative 

dose and might present in a later stage of treatment. 

 
If a patient misses a dose, the missed dose should not be taken if it is less than 12 hours before the next dose. 

 

Concomitant medicinal products 

Concomitant medicinal products that are strong inhibitors of CYP3A4 should be used with caution, and 

chronic use of concomitant medicinal products that are strong inducers of CYP3A4 should be avoided (see 

sections 4.4 and 4.5). 

 

Selection of an alternative concomitant medicinal product with no or minimal potential to induce or inhibit 

CYP3A4 should be considered. 

 

Elderly patients 

No specific dose adjustment for the use of cabozantinib in older people (≥ 65 years) is recommended. 

However, a trend in increased rate of SAEs has been observed in subjects aged 75 years and older. 

 

Race 

There is little experience with cabozantinib in non-White patients.  

 

Renal impairment  

Cabozantinib should be used with caution in patients with mild or moderate renal impairment.  

Cabozantinib is not recommended for use in patients with severe renal impairment as safety and efficacy 

have not been established in this population. 

 

Hepatic impairment 

In patients with mild or moderate hepatic impairment the recommended dose of cabozantinib is 60 mg once 

daily. Close monitoring of overall safety is recommended in these patients (see section 5.2) as dose 

adjustment or interruption may be required. Cabozantinib is not recommended for use in patients with severe 

hepatic impairment as safety and efficacy have not been established in this population. 

 

Patients with cardiac impairment 

There is limited data in patients with cardiac impairment. No specific dosing recommendations can be made. 

 

Paediatric population 

The safety and efficacy of cabozantinib in children aged <18 years have not yet been established. No data are 

available. 

 

Method of administration 

COMETRIQ is for oral use. The capsules should be swallowed whole and not opened. Patients should be 

instructed to not eat anything for at least 2 hours before through 1 hour after taking COMETRIQ. 



 

20 

 

4.3 Contraindications 

 

Hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients listed in section 6.1. 

 

4.4 Special warnings and precautions for use 

 

Dose reductions and dose interruptions occurred in 79% and 72%, respectively, of cabozantinib-treated 

patients in the pivotal clinical study. Two dose reductions were required in 41% of patients. The median time 

to first dose reduction was 43 days, and to first dose interruption was 33 days. Close monitoring of patients is 

therefore recommended during the first eight weeks of therapy (see section 4.2). 

 

Perforations, fistulas, and intra-abdominal abscesses  

Serious gastrointestinal (GI) perforations and fistulas, sometimes fatal, and intra-abdominal abscesses have 

been observed with cabozantinib. Patients who have had recent radiotherapy, have inflammatory bowel 

disease (e.g., Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, peritonitis, or diverticulitis), have tumour infiltration of 

trachea, bronchi, or oesophagus, have complications from prior GI surgery (particularly when associated 

with delayed or incomplete healing), or have complications from prior radiation therapy to the thoracic 

cavity (including mediastinum) should be carefully evaluated before initiating cabozantinib therapy and 

subsequently they should be monitored closely for symptoms of perforations and fistulas. Non-GI fistula 
should be ruled out as appropriate in cases of onset of mucositis after start of therapy. Cabozantinib should 

be discontinued in patients who experience a GI perforation or a GI or non-GI fistula. 

 

Thromboembolic events 

Events of venous thromboembolism, including pulmonary embolism and events of arterial 

thromboembolism, sometimes fatal, have been observed with cabozantinib. Cabozantinib should be used 

with caution in patients who are at risk for, or who have a history of, these events. Cabozantinib should be 

discontinued in patients who develop an acute myocardial infarction or any other clinically significant 

arterial thromboembolic complication. 

 

Haemorrhage 

Severe haemorrhage, sometimes fatal, has been observed with cabozantinib. Patients who have evidence of 

involvement of the trachea or bronchi by tumour or a history of haemoptysis prior to treatment initiation 

should be carefully evaluated before initiating cabozantinib therapy. Cabozantinib should not be 

administered to patients with serious haemorrhage or recent haemoptysis. 

 

Aneurysms and artery dissections 

The use of VEGF pathway inhibitors in patients with or without hypertension may promote the formation of 

aneurysms and/or artery dissections. Before initiating cabozantinib, this risk should be carefully considered 

in patients with risk factors such as hypertension or history of aneurysm. 

 

Gastrointestinal (GI) disorders  

Diarrhoea, nausea/vomiting, decreased appetite, and stomatitis/oral pain were some of the most commonly 

reported GI adverse reactions (see section 4.8). Prompt medical management, including supportive care with 

antiemetics, antidiarrhoeals, or antacids, should be instituted to prevent dehydration, electrolyte imbalances 

and weight loss. Dose interruption or reduction, or permanent discontinuation of cabozantinib should be 

considered in case of persistent or recurrent significant GI adverse reactions (see section 4.2). 

 

Wound complications 

Wound complications have been observed with cabozantinib. Cabozantinib treatment should be stopped at 

least 28 days prior to scheduled surgery, including dental surgery or invasive dental procedures, if possible. 

The decision to resume cabozantinib therapy after surgery should be based on clinical judgment of adequate 

wound healing. Cabozantinib should be discontinued in patients with wound healing complications requiring 

medical intervention. 

 

Hypertension 



 

21 

Hypertension has been observed with cabozantinib. All patients should be monitored for hypertension and 

treated as needed with standard anti-hypertensive therapy. In the case of persistent hypertension despite use 

of anti-hypertensives, the cabozantinib dose should be reduced. Cabozantinib should be discontinued if 

hypertension is severe and persistent despite anti-hypertensive therapy and dose reduction of cabozantinib.  

In case of hypertensive crisis, cabozantinib should be discontinued. 

 

Osteonecrosis 

Events of osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) have been observed with cabozantinib. An oral examination should 

be performed prior to initiation of cabozantinib and periodically during cabozantinib therapy. Patients should 

be advised regarding oral hygiene practice. Cabozantinib treatment should be held at least 28 days prior to 

scheduled dental surgery or invasive dental procedures, if possible. Caution should be used in patients 

receiving agents associated with ONJ, such as bisphosphonates. Cabozantinib should be discontinued in 

patients who experience ONJ. 

 

Palmar-plantar erythrodysaesthesia syndrome  

Palmar-plantar erythrodysaesthesia syndrome (PPES) has been observed with cabozantinib. When PPES is 

severe, interruption of treatment with cabozantinib should be considered. Cabozantinib should be restarted 

with a lower dose when PPES has been resolved to grade 1. 

 

Proteinuria 

Proteinuria has been observed with cabozantinib. Urine protein should be monitored regularly during 

cabozantinib treatment. Cabozantinib should be discontinued in patients who develop nephrotic syndrome. 

 

Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome 

Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) has been observed with cabozantinib. PRES should be 

considered in any patient presenting with symptoms suggestive of the diagnosis, including seizures, 

headache, visual disturbances, confusion or altered mental function. Cabozantinib treatment should be 

discontinued in patients with PRES. 

 

Prolongation of QT interval 

Cabozantinib should be used with caution in patients with a history of QT interval prolongation, patients who 

are taking antiarrhythmics, or patients with relevant pre-existing cardiac disease, bradycardia, or electrolyte 

disturbances. When using cabozantinib, periodic monitoring with on-treatment ECGs and electrolytes (serum 

calcium, potassium, and magnesium) should be considered. Concomitant treatment with strong CYP3A4 

inhibitors, which may increase cabozantinib plasma concentrations, should be used with caution. 

 

CYP3A4 inducers and inhibitors 

Cabozantinib is a CYP3A4 substrate. Concurrent administration of cabozantinib with the strong CYP3A4 

inhibitor ketoconazole resulted in an increase in cabozantinib plasma exposure. Caution is required when 

administering cabozantinib with agents that are strong CYP3A4 inhibitors. Concurrent administration of 

cabozantinib with the strong CYP3A4 inducer rifampicin resulted in a decrease in cabozantinib plasma 

exposure. Therefore chronic administration of agents that are strong CYP3A4 inducers with cabozantinib 

should be avoided (see sections 4.2 and 4.5). 

 

P-glycoprotein substrates  

Cabozantinib was an inhibitor (IC50 = 7.0 μM), but not a substrate, of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) transport 

activities in a bi-directional assay system using MDCK-MDR1 cells. Therefore, cabozantinib may have the 

potential to increase plasma concentrations of co-administered substrates of P-gp. Subjects should be 

cautioned regarding taking a P-gp substrate (e.g., fexofenadine, aliskiren, ambrisentan, dabigatran etexilate, 

digoxin, colchicine, maraviroc, posaconazole, ranolazine, saxagliptin, sitagliptin, talinolol, tolvaptan) while 

receiving cabozantinib. 

 

MRP2 inhibitors 

Administration of MRP2 inhibitors may result in increases in cabozantinib plasma concentrations. Therefore, 

concomitant use of MRP2 inhibitors (e.g. cyclosporine, efavirenz, emtricitabine) should be approached with 

caution. 

 



 

22 

 

 

4.5 Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction 

 
Effect of other medicinal products on cabozantinib 

CYP3A4 inhibitors and inducers 

Administration of the strong CYP3A4 inhibitor ketoconazole (400 mg daily for 27 days) to healthy 

volunteers decreased cabozantinib clearance (by 29%) and increased single-dose plasma cabozantinib 

exposure (AUC) by 38%. Therefore co-administration of strong CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ritonavir, 

itraconazole, erythromycin, clarithromycin, grapefruit juice) with cabozantinib should be approached with 

caution.  

 

Administration of the strong CYP3A4 inducer rifampicin (600 mg daily for 31 days) to healthy volunteers 

increased cabozantinib clearance (4.3-fold) and decreased single-dose plasma cabozantinib exposure (AUC) 

by 77%. Chronic co-administration of strong CYP3A4 inducers (e.g., phenytoin, carbamazepine, rifampicin, 

phenobarbital or herbal preparations containing St. John’s Wort [Hypericum perforatum]) with cabozantinib 

should therefore be avoided.  

 

Gastric pH modifying agents 

Co-administration of proton pump inhibitor (PPI) esomeprazole (40 mg daily for 6 days) with a single dose 

of 100 mg cabozantinib to healthy volunteers resulted in no clinically-significant effect on plasma 

cabozantinib exposure (AUC). No dose adjustment is indicated when gastric pH modifying agents (i.e., PPIs, 

H2 receptor antagonists, and antacids) are co-administered with cabozantinib. 

 

MRP2 inhibitors 

In vitro data demonstrate that cabozantinib is a substrate of MRP2. Therefore, administration of MRP2 

inhibitors may result in increases in cabozantinib plasma concentrations.  

 

Bile salt-sequestering agents 

Bile salt-sequestering agents such as cholestyramine and cholestagel may interact with cabozantinib and may 

impact absorption (or reabsorption) resulting in potentially decreased exposure (see section 5.2). The clinical 

significance of these potential interactions is unknown. 

 

Effect of cabozantinib on other medicinal products 

The effect of cabozantinib on the pharmacokinetics of contraceptive steroids has not been investigated. As 

unchanged contraceptive effect may not be guaranteed, an additional contraceptive method, such as a barrier 

method, is recommended. 

Because of high plasma protein binding levels of cabozantinib (section 5.2) a plasma protein displacement 

interaction with warfarin may be possible. In case of such combination, INR values should be monitored. 

 

P-glycoprotein substrates  

Cabozantinib was an inhibitor (IC50 = 7.0 μM), but not a substrate, of P-gp transport activities in a 

bi-directional assay system using MDCK-MDR1 cells. Therefore, cabozantinib may have the potential to 

increase plasma concentrations of co-administered substrates of P-gp. Subjects should be cautioned 

regarding taking a P-gp substrate (e.g., fexofenadine, aliskiren, ambrisentan, dabigatran etexilate, digoxin, 

colchicine, maraviroc, posaconazole, ranolazine, saxagliptin, sitagliptin, talinolol, tolvaptan) while receiving 

cabozantinib. 

 

4.6 Fertility, pregnancy and lactation 

 

Women of childbearing potential/Contraception in males and females 

Women of childbearing potential must be advised to avoid pregnancy while on cabozantinib. Female 

partners of male patients taking cabozantinib must also avoid pregnancy. Effective methods of contraception 

should be used by male and female patients and their partners during therapy, and for at least 4 months after 

completing therapy. Because oral contraceptives might possibly not be considered as “effective methods of 

contraception,” they should be used together with another method, such as a barrier method (see section 4.5). 

 



 

23 

 

 

Pregnancy 

There are no studies in pregnant women using cabozantinib. Studies in animals have shown embryo-foetal 

and teratogenic effects (see section 5.3). The potential risk for humans is unknown. Cabozantinib should not 

be used during pregnancy unless the clinical condition of the woman requires treatment with cabozantinib. 

 

Breast-feeding 

It is not known whether cabozantinib and/or its metabolites are excreted in human milk. Because of the 

potential harm to the infant, mothers should discontinue breast-feeding during treatment with cabozantinib, 

and for at least 4 months after completing therapy. 

 

Fertility 

There are no data on human fertility. Based on non-clinical safety findings, male and female fertility may be 

compromised by treatment with cabozantinib (see section 5.3). Both men and women should be advised to 

seek advice and consider fertility preservation before treatment. 

 

4.7 Effects on ability to drive and use machines 

 

Cabozantinib has minor influence on the ability to drive and use machines. Adverse reactions such as fatigue 

and weakness have been associated with cabozantinib.  Therefore, caution should be recommended when 

driving or operating machines. 

 

4.8 Undesirable effects 

 

Summary of safety profile 

The most common serious adverse reactions associated with cabozantinib are pneumonia, mucosal 
inflammation, hypocalcaemia, dysphagia, dehydration, pulmonary embolism, and hypertension. The most

Description of selected adverse reactions 

A thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) value above normal after first dose was observed in 57% of patients 

on cabozantinib versus 19% of patients on placebo (regardless of baseline values). Ninety-two percent of 

patients on the cabozantinib arm had a prior thyroidectomy, and 89% were taking thyroid hormones prior to 

first dose. 

 

An increase from baseline in corrected QT interval by Fridericia (QTcF) of 10 - 15 ms on Day 29 (but not on 

Day 1) following initiation of cabozantinib treatment (at a dose of 140 mg qd) was observed in a controlled 

clinical study in cancer patients (see section 4.4). This effect was not associated with a change in cardiac 

wave form morphology or new rhythms. No cabozantinib-treated subjects had a QTcF >500 ms. 

 

Please refer to section 4.4 for recommendations about the monitoring and management of the following 

adverse events: perforations, fistulas, and intra-abdominal abscesses; thromboembolic events; haemorrhage; 

aneurysms and artery dissections; gastrointestinal disorders; wound complications; hypertension; 

osteonecrosis; palmar-plantar erythrodysaesthesia syndrome; proteinuria; and posterior reversible 

encephalopathy syndrome. 

 

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. 

 

4.9 Overdose 

 

There is no specific treatment for cabozantinib overdose and possible symptoms of overdose have not been 

established. 

 

In the event of suspected overdose, cabozantinib should be withheld and supportive care instituted. 

Metabolic clinical laboratory parameters should be monitored at least weekly or as deemed clinically 

appropriate to assess any possible changing trends. Adverse reactions associated with overdose are to be 

treated symptomatically. 

 

 

5. PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES 

 

5.1  Pharmacodynamic properties 

 

Pharmacotherapeutic group: antineoplastic agent, protein kinase inhibitor, ATC code: L01XE26. 

 

Mechanism of action 

Cabozantinib is a small molecule that inhibits multiple receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) implicated in 

tumour growth and angiogenesis, pathologic bone remodelling, and metastatic progression of cancer. 

Cabozantinib was evaluated for its inhibitory activity against a variety of kinases and was identified as an 

inhibitor of MET (hepatocyte growth factor receptor protein) and VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) 

receptors. In addition, cabozantinib inhibits other tyrosine kinases including RET, the GAS6 receptor (AXL), 

the stem cell factor receptor (KIT), and Fms-like tyrosine kinase-3 (FLT3).    

 

http://www.ema.europa.eu/docs/en_GB/document_library/Template_or_form/2013/03/WC500139752.doc


 

27 

Pharmacodynamic effects 

Cabozantinib exhibited dose-related tumour growth inhibition, tumour regression, and/or inhibited metastasis 

in a broad range of preclinical tumour models. 

 

Efficacy with cabozantinib was observed in medullary thyroid cancer patients with wild-type or mutant RET. 

 

Clinical data in medullary thyroid cancer 

A multi-center, randomised double-blind study comparing cabozantinib (N = 219) with placebo (N = 111) 

was conducted in patients with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic MTC and documented 

radiographic disease progression within 14 months prior to study entry. The primary objective was to 

compare progression-free survival (PFS) in patients receiving cabozantinib versus patients receiving placebo. 

The secondary objectives were to compare overall response rate (ORR) and overall survival (OS). 

Centralized, independent, blinded review of the imaging data was used in the assessment of PFS and ORR. 

Patients were treated until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. 

 

The result of the PFS analysis, based on the central review RECIST assessment, demonstrated a statistically 

significant difference in the duration of PFS with cabozantinib versus placebo: the median duration was 

11.2 months for subjects in the cabozantinib arm versus 4.0 months for subjects in the placebo arm (stratified 

Hazard Ratio [HR] = 0.28; 95% CI: 0.19, 0.40; p<0.0001; Figure 1). The PFS results were consistent across 

all baseline and demographic subgroups evaluated, including prior therapy with tyrosine kinase inhibitors 

(which may have consisted of agents targeting pathways associated with anti-angiogenesis), RET mutational 

status (including subjects documented not to have RET mutations), prior anticancer or radiotherapy status, or 

the existence of bone metastases. 

 

The ORR was 27.9% and 0% for subjects in the cabozantinib arm and placebo arm, respectively (p<0.0001; 

Table 2). The median duration of objective responses was 14.6 months (95% CI: 11.1, 17.5) for subjects in 

the cabozantinib arm.

The final analysis of OS was conducted after 218 events (deaths) occurred and shows a trend for an increase 

in median survival of 5.5 months in the cabozantinib arm: median (months) 26.6 cabozantinib vs. 

21.1 placebo (HR = 0.85 [95% CI: 0.64, 1.12], p = 0.2409).

RET mutation status 

Of the 215 subjects with sufficient data to determine mutational status, 78.6% (n=169) were classified as 

RET mutation positive (126 of which were positive for the M918T mutation), and 21.4% (n=46) were 

classified as RET mutation negative. For an additional 115 subjects the RET mutational status could not be 

determined or was unclear. All three subgroups showed increased PFS in the cabozantinib arm compared to 

the placebo arm (HRs of 0.23, 0.53, and 0.30 for RET mutation positive, negative, and unknown subgroups,

respectively). The objective response rates measured in these subgroups were generally consistent with the 

PFS results, with the RET mutation positive, negative, and unknown subgroups showing tumour response 

rates of 32%, 22%, and 25%, respectively. 

 

Further genetic analysis showed that a small proportion of patients harboured somatic tumour mutations in 

HRAS, KRAS, or NRAS. These patients (n=16) showed significant prolongation of PFS (HR of 0.15) and an 

objective response rate of 31%. RET mutation negative patients with no evidence of RAS mutation (n=33) 

showed a decreased PFS benefit on cabozantinib (HR of 0.87) and a lower response rate of 18% compared to 

other mutational subgroups. 

 

A significant improvement in OS was observed in the subgroup of RET M918T mutation positive patients 

(n=81/219 cabozantinib arm): 44.3 months in the cabozantinib arm vs. 18.9 months in the placebo arm 

(HR = 0.60, p = 0.0255). There was no improvement in OS for the RET M918T negative and unknown 

subgroups.

Paediatric population 

The European Medicines Agency has deferred the obligation to submit the results of studies with 

cabozantinib in one or more subsets of the paediatric population in the treatment of malignant solid tumours 

(see section 4.2 for information on paediatric use). 

 

This medicinal product has been authorised under a so-called ‘conditional approval’ scheme. This means that 

further evidence on this medicinal product is awaited. 

The European Medicines Agency will review new information on this medicinal product at least every year 

and this SmPC will be updated as necessary 

 

5.2 Pharmacokinetic properties 

 

Absorption 

Following oral administration of cabozantinib, peak cabozantinib plasma concentrations are reached at 2 to 

5 hours post-dose. Plasma-concentration time profiles show a second absorption peak approximately 

24 hours after administration, which suggests that cabozantinib may undergo enterohepatic recirculation. 

 

Repeat daily dosing of cabozantinib at 140 mg for 19 days resulted in an approximately a 4- to 5-fold mean 

cabozantinib accumulation (based on AUC) compared to a single dose administration; steady state is 

achieved by approximately Day 15.

A high-fat meal moderately increased Cmax and AUC values (41% and 57%, respectively) relative to fasted 

conditions in healthy volunteers administered a single 140 mg oral cabozantinib dose. There is no 

information on the precise food-effect when taken 1 hour after administration of cabozantinib. 

 

Bioequivalence could not be demonstrated between the cabozantinib capsule and tablet formulations 

following a single 140 mg dose in healthy subjects. A 19% increase in the Cmax of the tablet formulation 

(CABOMETYX) compared to the capsule formulation (COMETRIQ) was observed. AUC were similar 

between cabozantinib tablet (CABOMETYX) and capsule (COMETRIQ) formulations (<10% difference). 

 

Distribution 

Cabozantinib is highly protein bound in vitro in human plasma (≥ 99.7%). Based on the population-

pharmacokinetic (PK) model, the volume of distribution (V/F) is approximately 349 L (SE: ± 2.73%). 

Protein binding was not altered in subjects with mild or moderately impaired renal or hepatic function. 

 

Biotransformation 

Cabozantinib was metabolized in vivo. Four metabolites were present in plasma at exposures (AUC) greater 

than 10% of parent: XL184-N-oxide, XL184 amide cleavage product, XL184 monohydroxy sulfate, and 

6-desmethyl amide cleavage product sulfate. Two non-conjugated metabolites (XL184-N-oxide and XL184 

amide cleavage product), which possess <1% of the on-target kinase inhibition potency of parent 

cabozantinib, each represent <10% of total drug-related plasma exposure. 

 

Cabozantinib is a substrate for CYP3A4 metabolism in vitro, as a neutralizing antibody to CYP3A4 inhibited 

formation of metabolite XL184 N-oxide by >80% in a NADPH-catalyzed human liver microsomal (HLM) 

incubation; in contrast, neutralizing antibodies to CYP1A2, CYP2A6, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C19, 

CYP2D6 and CYP2E1 had no effect on cabozantinib metabolite formation. A neutralizing antibody to 

CYP2C9 showed a minimal effect on cabozantinib metabolite formation (ie, a <20% reduction). 

 

Elimination 

The plasma terminal half-life of cabozantinib in single dose studies in healthy volunteers is approximately 

120 hours. Mean clearance (CL/F) at steady-state in cancer patients was estimated to be 4.4 L/hr in a 

population PK analysis. Within a 48-day collection period after a single dose of 14C-cabozantinib in healthy 

volunteers, approximately 81% of the total administered radioactivity was recovered with 54% in faeces and 

27% in urine.  

 

Pharmacokinetics in special patient populations 

 

Renal impairment 

Results from a study in patients with renal impairment indicate that the ratios of geometric LS mean for 

plasma cabozantinib, Cmax and AUC0-inf were 19% and 30% higher, for subjects with mild renal impairment 

(90% CI for Cmax 91.60% to 155.51%; AUC0-inf 98.79% to 171.26%) and 2% and 6-7% higher (90% CI for 

Cmax 78.64% to 133.52%; AUC0-inf 79.61% to 140.11%), for subjects with moderate renal impairment, 

compared to subjects with normal renal function. Patients with severe renal impairment have not been 

studied. 

 

Hepatic impairment 

Results from a study in patients with hepatic impairment indicate that exposure (AUC0-inf) increased by 81% 

and 63% in subjects with mild and moderate hepatic impairment, respectively (90% CI for AUC0-inf: 

121.44% to 270.34% for mild and 107.37% to 246.67% for moderate). Patients with severe hepatic 

impairment have not been studied. 

 

Race 

No data are available to determine a difference in PK based on race. 

 

5.3 Preclinical safety data 

 

Adverse reactions not observed in clinical studies, but seen in animals at exposure levels similar to clinical 

exposure levels and with possible relevance to clinical use were as follows: 



 

31 

 

In rat and dog repeat-dose toxicity studies up to 6 months duration, target organs for toxicity were GI tract, 

bone marrow, lymphoid tissues, kidney, adrenal and reproductive tract tissues. The no observed adverse 

effect level (NOAEL) for these findings were below human clinical exposure levels at intended therapeutic 

dose. 

 

Cabozantinib has shown no mutagenic or clastogenic potential in a standard battery of genotoxicity assays. 

The carcinogenic potential of cabozantinib has been evaluated in two species: rasH2 transgenic mice and 

Sprague-Dawley rats. In the 2-year rat carcinogenicity study, cabozantinib-related neoplastic findings 

consisted of an increased incidence of benign pheochromocytoma, alone or in combination with malignant 

pheochromocytoma/complex malignant pheochromocytoma of the adrenal medulla in both sexes at 

exposures well below the intended exposure in humans. The clinical relevance of the observed neoplastic 

lesions in rats is uncertain, but likely to be low. Cabozantinib was not carcinogenic in the rasH2 mouse 

model at a slightly higher exposure than the intended human therapeutic exposure.  

 

Fertility studies in rats have shown reduced male and female fertility. Further, hypospermatogenesis was 

observe in male dogs at exposure levels below human clinical exposure levels at intended therapeutic dose.  

 

Embryo-foetal development studies were performed in rats and rabbits. In rats, cabozantinib caused 

postimplantation loss, foetal oedema, cleft palate/lip, dermal aplasia and kinked or rudimentary tail. In 

rabbits, cabozantinib produced foetal soft tissue changes (reduced spleen size, small or missing intermediate 

lung lobe) and increased foetal incidence of total malformations. NOAEL for embryo-foetal toxicity and 

teratogenic findings were below human clinical exposure levels at intended therapeutic dose.   

 

Juvenile rats (comparable to a >2 year old pediatric population) administered cabozantinib showed increased 

WBC parameters, decreased haematopoiesis, pubescent/immature female reproductive system (without 

delayed vaginal opening), tooth abnormalities, reduced bone mineral content and density, liver pigmentation 

and bile duct hyperplasia. Findings in uterus/ovaries and decreased haematopoiesis appeared to be transient, 

while effects on bone parameters and liver pigmentation were sustained. Evaluations in juvenile rats 

(comparable to a <2 year old pediatric population) have not been performed.

E. SPECIFIC OBLIGATION TO COMPLETE POST-AUTHORISATION MEASURES FOR 

THE CONDITIONAL MARKETING AUTHORISATION  

 

This being a conditional marketing authorisation and pursuant to Article 14a(4) of Regulation (EC) No 

726/2004, the MAH shall complete, within the stated timeframe, the following measures: 

 

Description Due date 

A dose-comparison study (XL-184-401) (140 mg vs 60 mg) in 112 patients with 

hereditary or sporadic medullary thyroid cancer. 

Patients with both sporadic and hereditary forms of MTC will be eligible for the 

study. Fresh tumour samples for tumour genetic analysis from the most recent 

metastatic site in patients enrolled in the dose-comparison study should be 

collected. 

Samples will undergo thorough evaluation for RET and RAS mutations. Tumour 

tissue samples initially will undergo histological evaluation, manual tumour 

enrichment, and DNA isolation. The resulting DNA samples will be evaluated for 

quality by a PCR-based amplification test, and by Sanger sequencing for RET 

M918T. A replacement sample will be requested if an original sample fails during 

the PCR quality or the Sanger sequencing tests. Next generation sequencing of 

RET exons 10, 11, and 13-16 will be performed, which covers the vast majority of 

known RET mutations. In addition, samples will be evaluated for mutations in RAS 

gene hotspots (HRAS, KRAS, and NRAS genes). 

PK assessments will be required for all subjects (both dose groups). Results will 

be used to evaluate the exposure to cabozantinib at the 60 and 140 mg dose levels 

and to further characterize the population PK models and exposure response 

relationships of cabozantinib and possible metabolites in this population.

information for you. 

 

- Keep this leaflet. You may need to read it again.  
- If you have any further questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist.

1. What COMETRIQ is and what it is used for 

 

What COMETRIQ is 

COMETRIQ is a cancer medicine that contains the active substance cabozantinib (S)-malate.  

It is a medicine used to treat medullary thyroid cancer, a rare type of thyroid cancer, that cannot be removed 

by surgery or that has spread to other parts of the body.  

 

How COMETRIQ works 

COMETRIQ blocks the action of proteins called receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs), which are involved in the 

growth of cells and the development of new blood vessels that supply them. These proteins can be present in 

high amounts in cancer cells, and by blocking their action COMETRIQ can slow down the rate at which the 

tumour grows and help to cut off the blood supply that the cancer needs. 

COMETRIQ may slow or stop the growth of medullary thyroid cancer. It may help shrink tumours 

associated with this type of cancer. 

 

 

2. What you need to know before you take COMETRIQ 

 

Do not take COMETRIQ 

- if you are allergic to cabozantinib or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in 

section 6). 

 

Warnings and precautions  

 

Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking COMETRIQ if you: 

 



 

61 

-  have high blood pressure 

- have or have had an aneurysm (enlargement and weakening of a blood vessel wall) or a tear in a 
blood vessel wall. 

- have diarrhoea 

- have a recent history of coughing up blood or significant bleeding 

- have had surgery within the last month (or if surgical procedures are planned), including dental 

procedures 

- have had radiotherapy in the last 3 months 

- have inflammatory bowel disease (for example, Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis or diverticulitis) 

- have been told that your cancer has spread to your airway or oesophagus 

- have a recent history of blood clot in the leg, stroke, or heart attack 

- are taking medicines to control your heart rhythm, have a slow heart rate, have problems with your 

heart or have problems with the levels of calcium, potassium or magnesium in your blood 

- have severe liver or kidney disease.  

 

Tell your doctor if any of these affect you. You may need treatment for them, or your doctor may decide to 

change your dose of COMETRIQ, or stop treatment altogether. See also section 4 “Possible side effects”. 

 

You should also tell your dentist that you are taking COMETRIQ. It is important for you to practice good 

mouth care during treatment with COMETRIQ. 

 

Children and adolescents 

 

COMETRIQ is not recommended for children or adolescents. The effects of COMETRIQ in people younger 

than 18 years old are not known. 

 

Other medicines and COMETRIQ 

 

Please tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking or have recently taken any other medicines, including 

medicines obtained without a prescription. This is because COMETRIQ can affect the way some other 

medicines work. Also, some medicines can affect the way COMETRIQ works. This could mean that your 

doctor needs to change the dose(s) that you take.  

 

- Medicines that treat fungal infections, such as itraconazole, ketoconazole, and posaconazole 
- Medicines used to treat bacterial infections (antibiotics) such as erythromycin, clarithromycin, and 

rifampicin

Oral contraceptives 

If you take COMETRIQ whilst using oral contraceptives, the oral contraceptives may be ineffective. You 

should also use a barrier contraceptive (e.g. condom or diaphragm) whilst taking COMETRIQ and for at 

least 4 months after treatment has finished. 



 

62 

 

Taking COMETRIQ with food 

 

Avoid consuming grapefruit-containing products for as long as you are using this medicine, as it may 

increase the levels of COMETRIQ in your blood. 

 

Pregnancy, breast-feeding, and fertility  

 

Avoid becoming pregnant while being treated with COMETRIQ. If you or your partner could become 

pregnant, use adequate contraception during treatment and for at least 4 months after treatment has finished. 

Talk to your doctor about which methods of contraception are appropriate while you are taking COMETRIQ. 

See section 2. 

 

Tell your doctor if you or your partner become pregnant or plan to become pregnant while you are being 

treated with COMETRIQ.  

 

Talk to your doctor BEFORE taking COMETRIQ if you or your partner are considering or planning to 

have a baby after your treatment has finished.  There is a possibility your fertility could be affected by 

treatment with COMETRIQ.  

 

Women taking COMETRIQ should not breast feed during treatment and for at least 4 months after treatment 

has finished, as cabozantinib and/or its metabolites may be excreted in breast milk and be harmful to your 

child. 

 

Driving and using machines 

 

Use caution when driving or using machines. Keep in mind that treatment with COMETRIQ may make you 

feel tired or weak. 

 

3. How to take COMETRIQ 

 

Always take this medicine exactly as your doctor or pharmacist has told you. Check with your doctor or 

pharmacist if you are not sure. 

 

You should continue to take this medicine until your doctor decides to stop your treatment.  If you

originally planned. Your doctor will determine if you need your dose adjusted, particularly during the first 

eight weeks of therapy with COMETRIQ.

enough capsules to last for 28 days, in 4 blister cards with seven days of capsules on each card. 

 

Each day, take all the capsules across the row. More information on the blister cards including how many

If you have taken more COMETRIQ than you have been instructed to, talk to a doctor or go to the hospital 

with the capsules and this leaflet straight away.

{'Title': '1. what cometriq is and what it is used for', 'Section_Content': 'what cometriq is cometriq is a cancer medicine that contains the active substance cabozantinib (s)-malate. it is a medicine used to treat medullary thyroid cancer, a rare type of thyroid cancer, that cannot be removed by surgery or that has spread to other parts of the body. how cometriq works cometriq blocks the action of proteins called receptor tyrosine kinases (rtks), which are involved in the growth of cells and the development of new blood vessels that supply them. these proteins can be present in high amounts in cancer cells, and by blocking their action cometriq can slow down the rate at which the tumour grows and help to cut off the blood supply that the cancer needs. cometriq may slow or stop the growth of medullary thyroid cancer. it may help shrink tumours associated with this type of cancer.', 'Entity_Recognition': [{'Text': 'cometriq', 'Type': 'PRODUCT_NAME', 'BeginOffset': 0, 'EndOffset': 0}, {'Id': 4, 'BeginOffset': 5, 'EndOffset': 13, 'Score': 0.9620388150215149, 'Text': 'cometriq', 'Category': 'MEDICATION', 'Type': 'BRAND_NAME', 'Traits': []}, {'Id': 5, 'BeginOffset': 17, 'EndOffset': 25, 'Score': 0.9673165678977966, 'Text': 'cometriq', 'Category': 'MEDICATION', 'Type': 'BRAND_NAME', 'Traits': []}, {'Text': 'a cancer medicine', 'Type': 'TREATMENT', 'BeginOffset': 29, 'EndOffset': 46}, {'Text': 'the active substance cabozantinib', 'Type': 'TREATMENT', 'BeginOffset': 61, 'EndOffset': 94}, {'Id': 7, 'BeginOffset': 99, 'EndOffset': 105, 'Score': 0.5130056142807007, 'Text': 'malate', 'Category': 'MEDICATION', 'Type': 'GENERIC_NAME', 'Traits': []}, {'Text': 'a medicine', 'Type': 'TREATMENT', 'BeginOffset': 113, 'EndOffset': 123}, {'Id': 13, 'BeginOffset': 138, 'EndOffset': 162, 'Score': 0.8376705646514893, 'Text': 'medullary thyroid cancer', 'Category': 'MEDICAL_CONDITION', 'Type': 'DX_NAME', 'Traits': [{'Name': 'DIAGNOSIS', 'Score': 0.9845296144485474}]}, {'Id': 0, 'BeginOffset': 148, 'EndOffset': 155, 'Score': 0.8753638863563538, 'Text': 'thyroid', 'Category': 'ANATOMY', 'Type': 'SYSTEM_ORGAN_SITE', 'Traits': []}, {'Id': 14, 'BeginOffset': 179, 'EndOffset': 193, 'Score': 0.9177867770195007, 'Text': 'thyroid cancer', 'Category': 'MEDICAL_CONDITION', 'Type': 'DX_NAME', 'Traits': [{'Name': 'DIAGNOSIS', 'Score': 0.9833359718322754}]}, {'Id': 17, 'BeginOffset': 221, 'EndOffset': 228, 'Score': 0.39119210839271545, 'Text': 'surgery', 'Category': 'TEST_TREATMENT_PROCEDURE', 'Type': 'PROCEDURE_NAME', 'Traits': []}, {'Id': 2, 'BeginOffset': 270, 'EndOffset': 274, 'Score': 0.7188653349876404, 'Text': 'body', 'Category': 'ANATOMY', 'Type': 'SYSTEM_ORGAN_SITE', 'Traits': []}, {'Id': 8, 'BeginOffset': 280, 'EndOffset': 288, 'Score': 0.9512745141983032, 'Text': 'cometriq', 'Category': 'MEDICATION', 'Type': 'BRAND_NAME', 'Traits': []}, {'Id': 9, 'BeginOffset': 295, 'EndOffset': 303, 'Score': 0.8592798709869385, 'Text': 'cometriq', 'Category': 'MEDICATION', 'Type': 'BRAND_NAME', 'Traits': []}, {'Text': 'receptor tyrosine kinases', 'Type': 'TREATMENT', 'BeginOffset': 341, 'EndOffset': 366}, {'Text': 'new blood vessels', 'Type': 'PROBLEM', 'BeginOffset': 440, 'EndOffset': 457}, {'Text': 'these proteins', 'Type': 'PROBLEM', 'BeginOffset': 476, 'EndOffset': 490}, {'Text': 'high amounts in cancer cells', 'Type': 'PROBLEM', 'BeginOffset': 509, 'EndOffset': 537}, {'Id': 10, 'BeginOffset': 568, 'EndOffset': 576, 'Score': 0.9333735704421997, 'Text': 'cometriq', 'Category': 'MEDICATION', 'Type': 'BRAND_NAME', 'Traits': []}, {'Id': 11, 'BeginOffset': 686, 'EndOffset': 694, 'Score': 0.9515371918678284, 'Text': 'cometriq', 'Category': 'MEDICATION', 'Type': 'BRAND_NAME', 'Traits': []}, {'Id': 15, 'BeginOffset': 726, 'EndOffset': 750, 'Score': 0.4329385757446289, 'Text': 'medullary thyroid cancer', 'Category': 'MEDICAL_CONDITION', 'Type': 'DX_NAME', 'Traits': [{'Name': 'DIAGNOSIS', 'Score': 0.9613845348358154}]}, {'Id': 3, 'BeginOffset': 736, 'EndOffset': 743, 'Score': 0.8894651532173157, 'Text': 'thyroid', 'Category': 'ANATOMY', 'Type': 'SYSTEM_ORGAN_SITE', 'Traits': []}, {'Text': 'shrink tumours', 'Type': 'PROBLEM', 'BeginOffset': 764, 'EndOffset': 778}, {'Id': 16, 'BeginOffset': 808, 'EndOffset': 814, 'Score': 0.9342374801635742, 'Text': 'cancer', 'Category': 'MEDICAL_CONDITION', 'Type': 'DX_NAME', 'Traits': [{'Name': 'DIAGNOSIS', 'Score': 0.9288262724876404}]}]}
