1. What fotivda is and what it is used for

The active substance in Fotivda is tivozanib, which is a protein kinase inhibitor. Tivozanib reduces the supply of blood to the cancer, which slows down the growth and spread of cancer cells. It works by blocking the action of a protein called vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Blocking the action of VEGF prevents the formation of new blood vessels.

Fotivda is used to treat adults with advanced kidney cancer. It is used where other treatments such as interferon-alpha or interleukin-2 have either not yet been used or have not helped to stop your disease.

2. What you need to know before you take fotivda

Do not take Fotivda:

  • If you are allergic to tivozanib or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6);
  • If you are taking St. John s Wort (also known as Hypericum perforatum, a herbal remedy used for treatment of depression and anxiety).

Warnings and precautions
Talk to your doctor, pharmacist or nurse before taking Fotivda:

  • if you have high blood pressure Fotivda can increase your blood pressure. Your doctor will monitor your blood pressure regularly and, if it is too high, may either give you a medicine to lower it, or reduce your dose of Fotivda. However, if your blood pressure remains too high, your doctor may decide to interrupt or to stop treatment with Fotivda. If you are already taking a medicine to treat high blood pressure, and your doctor reduces the dose of Fotivda or interrupts or stops treatment, you will be regularly checked for low blood pressure.

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

  • if you have had problems with blood clots
    Treatment with Fotivda may raise the risk of developing a blood clot (thrombus) in your blood vessels that could break loose and be carried by the blood stream to block another blood vessel.
    Tell your doctor if you have ever had one of the following: * a blood clot in your lungs (with cough, chest pain, sudden shortness of breath or coughing up blood) * blood clot in your legs or arms, eye, or brain (with pain or swelling in your hands or feet, reduced vision, or changes in your mental state) * a stroke, or signs and symptoms of a mini-stroke (transient ischaemic attack) * a heart attack * high blood pressure * diabetes * major surgery * multiple injuries such as broken bones and damage to internal organs * inability to move for a long period * heart failure which can cause shortness of breath or ankle swelling * inability to breathe, bluish colour on your skin, fingertips or lips, restlessness, anxiety, confusion, altered consciousness or sense of awareness, rapid, shallow breathing, a racing heart or excessive sweating.

  • if you suffer or have suffered from any of these symptoms or are treated for heart failure: * Shortness of breath (dyspnoea) when you exert yourself or when you lie down * Feeling weak and tired * Swelling (oedema) in your legs, ankles and feet * Reduced ability to exercise * Persistent cough or wheezing with white or pink blood-tinged phlegm Signs and symptoms of heart failure will be monitored whilst you are taking your medicine. If necessary, your doctor may reduce your dose of Fotivda, or interrupt or stop this treatment.

  • If you have or are treated for an abnormal rate and rhythm of the heartbeat (arrhythmia) Your doctor will monitor the effect of Fotivda on your heart by recording the electrical activity of your heart (an electrocardiogram) or by measuring your blood calcium, magnesium and potassium levels during your treatment.

  • if you have problems with your liver
    Your doctor will regularly monitor how well your liver is working before and during treatment with Fotivda (e.g. with blood tests), and if necessary may need to reduce how often you take Fotivda.

  • if you have problems with your thyroid gland or use medicines to treat thyroid disease Treatment with Fotivda may cause your thyroid gland to work less well than usual. Your doctor will regularly monitor how well your thyroid gland is working before and during treatment with Fotivda (e.g. with blood tests).

Talk to your doctor, pharmacist or nurse while taking Fotivda:

  • if you get shortness of breath or ankle swelling Tell your doctor right away as these may be symptoms of heart failure. Your doctor will monitor this, and depending on the severity may reduce your dose of Fotivda, or interrupt or stop treatment with Fotivda.

  • if you have had problems with bleeding Treatment with Fotivda may increase the risk of bleeding. If you get bleeding problems (with painful swollen stomach (abdomen), vomiting blood, coughing up blood, black stools, blood in your urine, headache or changes in your mental state), tell your doctor right away. Treatment with Fotivda may need to be temporarily stopped.

  • if laboratory tests show that there is protein in your urine
    Your doctor will monitor this at the beginning and during your treatment. Depending on the results, your doctor may reduce your dose of Fotivda, or interrupt or stop this treatment.

  • if you suffer from a disease of the brain, called posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) Tell your doctor right away if you have symptoms such as headache, seizure (fit), lack of energy, confusion, blindness or other visual and neurologic disturbances such as weakness in an arm or a leg. If PRES is diagnosed, your doctor will stop treatment with Fotivda.

  • if the skin on the palms of your hands and the soles of your feet become dry, cracked, scaling, or peeling, or is stinging or tingling These may be symptoms of a condition called hand foot skin reaction. Your doctor will treat the condition and, depending on the severity, the doctor may reduce your dose of Fotivda, or interrupt or stop this treatment.

  • if you have symptoms of gastrointestinal perforation or fistula formation (developing a hole in the stomach or intestine or abnormal passages forming between parts of the intestine) such as severe stomach pain, chills, fever, nausea, vomiting or painful bowel obstruction, diarrhoea or rectal bleeding.
    Your doctor will regularly monitor you for these symptoms during your treatment with Fotivda.

  • if you need to have an operation or another form of surgery Your doctor may recommend that you temporarily stop taking Fotivda if you have an operation or surgery, as it could affect wound healing.
