Precautions
Hemorrhage: Do not administer Cabozantinib if recent history of hemorrhage.
Perforations and Fistulas: Monitor for symptoms. Discontinue Cabozantinib for Grade 4 fistula or perforation.
Thrombotic Events: Discontinue Cabozantinib for myocardial infarction or serious venous or arterial thromboembolic events.
Hypertension and Hypertensive Crisis: Monitor blood pressure regularly. Interrupt for hypertension that is not adequately controlled with anti-hypertensive therapy. Discontinue Cabozantinib for hypertensive crisis or severe hypertension that cannot be controlled with anti-hypertensive therapy.
Diarrhea: May be severe. Interrupt Cabozantinib immediately until diarrhea resolves or decreases to Grade 1. Recommend standard antidiarrheal treatments.
Palmar-Plantar Erythrodysesthesia (PPE): Interrupt Cabozantinib treatment until PPE resolves or decreases to Grade 1.
Hepatotoxicity: When used in combination with nivolumab, higher frequencies of Grade 3 and 4 ALT and AST elevation may occur than with Cabozantinib alone. Monitor liver enzymes before initiation of and periodically throughout treatment. Consider withholding Cabozantinib and/or nivolumab, initiating corticosteroid therapy, and/or permanently discontinuing the combination for severe or life-threatening hepatotoxicity.
Adrenal Insufficiency: When used in combination with nivolumab, primary or secondary adrenal insufficiency may occur. For Grade 2 or higher adrenal insufficiency, initiate symptomatic treatment, including hormone replacement as clinically indicated. Withhold Cabozantinib and/or nivolumab depending on severity.
Proteinuria: Monitor urine protein. Discontinue for nephrotic syndrome.
Osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ): Withhold Cabozantinib for at least 3 weeks prior to invasive dental procedures and for the development of ONJ.
Impaired Wound Healing: Withhold Cabozantinib for at least 3 weeks before elective surgery. Do not administer for at least 2 weeks following major surgery and adequate wound healing. The safety of resumption of Cabozantinib after the resolution of wound healing complications has not been established.
Reversible Posterior Leukoencephalopathy Syndrome (RPLS): Discontinue Cabozantinib.
Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: Can cause fetal harm. Advise females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to a fetus and to use effective contraception.
Monitoring Parameters
Monitor liver enzymes before initiation of and periodically throughout treatment.
Monitor urine protein regularly and discontinue if nephrotic syndrome develops.
Monitor blood pressure regularly.
Pregnancy-Lactation
Pregnancy
Based on its mechanism of action, can cause fetal harm when administered to pregnant women
Verify pregnancy status of females of reproductive potential before initiation
Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment and for 4 months after the final dose
May impair male and female fertility
Lactation
Unknown whether distributed in breast milk
Because of potential for serious adverse reactions in a breastfed infant from cabozantinib, advise females of reproductive potential to not breastfeed during treatment and for 4 months after the final dose
Interactions
Increased plasma concentration with strong CYP3A4 enzyme inhibitors (e.g. ketoconazole, itraconazole).
Decreased plasma concentration with strong CYP3A4 enzyme inducers (e.g. rifampin, rifabutin, rifapentine, phenobarbital, phenytoin, carbamazepine).

Mechanism of Action
Tyrosine kinase inhibitor that targets RET, MET, VEGFR-1, -2, and -3, KIT, TrkB, FLT-3, AXL, and TIE-2 pathways; these tyrosine kinases are involved in both normal cellular function and pathologic processes (eg, oncogenesis, metastasis, tumor angiogenesis, and maintenance of tumor microenvironment).
