Consumer:

In vitro studies demonstrated that venetoclax is predominantly metabolized in the liver by CYP450 3A4/5. Based on pharmacokinetic analysis with subjects with mild and moderate hepatic impairment, the venetoclax exposures were similar to those with normal hepatic function; therefore, no dose adjustment is recommended in patients with mild or moderate hepatic impairment. Based on the drug metabolism, an increase in adverse events might result in patients with moderate to severe hepatic impairment. It is recommended to monitor patients with moderate to severe hepatic impairment carefully for signs of toxicity during the initiation and the weekly dose ramp-up phase. Caution is advised when using this agent in patients with severe hepatic impairment as it pharmacokinetics has not been studied.
