Cardiovascular Events: Consider temporary or permanent discontinuation of Sorafenib tablets. Hemorrhage: Discontinue Sorafenib tablets if needed. Hypertension: Monitor blood pressure weekly during the first 6 weeks and periodically thereafter. Consider temporary or permanent discontinuation for severe or persistent hypertension despite antihypertensive therapy. Dermatologic Toxicities: Interrupt and/or decrease dose. Discontinue for severe or persistent reactions, or if Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis is suspected. Gastrointestinal Perforation: Discontinue Sorafenib tablets. Risk of Impaired Wound Healing: Withhold Sorafenib tablets for at least 10 days prior to elective surgery. Do not administer for at least 2 weeks following major surgery and until adequate wound healing. The safety of resumption of Sorafenib tablets after resolution of wound healing complications has not been established. QT Prolongation: Monitor electrocardiograms and electrolytes in patients at increased risk for ventricular arrhythmias. Correct electrolytes. Interrupt if QTc greater than 500 msec or increases greater than 60 msec from baseline. Drug-Induced Liver Injury: Monitor liver function tests regularly; discontinue for unexplained transaminase elevations. Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: Sorafenib tablets may cause fetal harm. Advise patients of the potential risk to a fetus and to use effective contraception. Impairment of Thyroid Stimulating Hormone Suppression (TSH) in DTC: Monitor TSH monthly and adjust thyroid replacement therapy in patients with thyroid cancer. Cardiovascular Events In the SHARP (HCC) study, the incidence of cardiac ischemia/infarction was 2.7% in Sorafenib tablets-treated patients compared with 1.3% in those receiving placebo, and in the DECISION (DTC) study, the incidence of cardiac ischemia/infarction was 1.9% in the Sorafenib tablets -treated group compared with 0% in patients receiving placebo. Patients with unstable coronary artery disease or recent myocardial infarction were excluded from this study. In multiple clinical trials, congestive heart failure has been reported in 1.9% of Sorafenib tablets - treated patients (N=2276). Consider temporary or permanent discontinuation of Sorafenib tablets in patients who develop cardiovascular events. Hemorrhage An increased risk of bleeding may occur following Sorafenib tablets administration. In the SHARP (HCC) study, the rates of bleeding from esophageal varices (2.4% and 4%) and of bleeding with a fatal outcome from any site (2.4% and 4%) were similar in Sorafenib tablets -treated patients and those receiving placebo, respectively. In the DECISION (DTC) study, bleeding was reported in 17.4% of Sorafenib tablets -treated patients and 9.6% of those receiving placebo; Abridged from the full prescribing information.

The data described reflect exposure to Sorafenib tablets in 504 patients who participated in placebo-controlled studies in hepatocellular carcinoma N=297), or differentiated thyroid carcinoma (N = 207). The most common adverse reactions (≥20%), which were considered to be related to Sorafenib tablets, in patients with HCC or DTC are diarrhea, fatigue, infection, alopecia, hand-foot skin reaction, rash, weight loss, decreased appetite, nausea, gastrointestinal and abdominal pains, hypertension, and hemorrhage. Hepatocellular Carcinoma Table 4 shows the percentage of patients in the SHARP (HCC) study experiencing adverse reactions that were reported in at least 10% of patients and at a higher rate in the Sorafenib Tablets -treated group than in those eceiving placebo.
