ROMVIMZA:A manageable safety profile1
ROMVIMZA was associated with elevated liver enzymes1
No cases of serious and fatal liver injury have been observed1
Cases of serious and fatal liver injury have occurred with the use of another kinase inhibitor that targets CSF1R, pexidartinib1,2
Monitor liver tests, including AST, ALT, total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, ALP, and gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT), prior to initiation of ROMVIMZA, twice a month for the first two months and once every 3 months for the first year of therapy and as clinically indicated thereafter1
Across clinical trials in 253 patients treated with ROMVIMZA1
increased AST2%
increased ALT1%
increased bilirubin0%
Dose interruptions occurred in 2% and dose reductions occurred in 1% of patients due to AST/ALT increase. One patient discontinued therapy due to Grade 3 AST increased1
Avoid ROMVIMZA in patients with pre‑existing increased serum transaminases; total bilirubin or direct bilirubin (>ULN); or active liver or biliary tract disease, including increased ALP1
Isolated liver enzyme elevations and mixed or cholestatic hepatotoxicity are clinically distinct adverse events3,4
No REMS program* required1
No cases of hair hypopigmentation were observed in the MOTION study5
95% of ARs were Grade 1 or 26

At ≥2 years of follow-up of MOTION, ROMVIMZA continued to have a manageable safety profile with no new safety signals observed7¶
Other clinically significant reactions occurring in <10% of patients treated with ROMVIMZA include blurred vision (6%)1
Elevated AST and ALT can occur with ROMVIMZA1
If a patient develops elevated AST and/or ALT during treatment on ROMVIMZA, consider temporarily stopping treatment, dose reduction, or permanently stopping treatment depending on how severe liver problems are1
Additional clinically significant laboratory abnormality: Increased Creatine Phosphokinase (CPK)1
*REMS is a drug safety program that the FDA can require for certain medications with serious safety concerns to help ensure the benefits of the medication outweigh its risks.
†Adverse reactions occurring and laboratory abnormalities worsening from baseline in ≥10% patients receiving ROMVIMZA and with a 5% difference between ROMVIMZA and placebo arms through week 25 in the MOTION study.
‡The severity of adverse reactions was assessed using CTCAE Version 5.0.1
§Includes multiple related terms.1
‖The denominator used to calculate the rate was 83 for ROMVIMZA and 38 for placebo based on the number of patients with a baseline value and at least one post-treatment value.1
¶Median (range) treatment duration was 23.6 months (2–36) for patients randomized to ROMVIMZA and 19.1 months (1–30) for those who crossed over to ROMVIMZA.7
