Help

Package leaflet

Sorafenib is a multikinase inhibitor. Reduces the proliferation of tumor cells in vitro. Sorafenib has been shown to inhibit numerous intracellular kinases (c-CRAF, BRAF, and mutant BRAF) and kinases located on the cell surface (KIT, FLT-3, RET, VEGFR-1, VEGFR-2, VEGFR-3, and PDGFR-β). It is believed that some of these kinases are involved in the signaling systems of the tumor cell, in the processes of angiogenesis and apoptosis. Sorafenib inhibits tumor growth in hepatic cell carcinoma, renal cell carcinoma, and differentiated thyroid cancer in humans.

  • Metastatic renal cell carcinoma
  • Liver cell carcinoma
  • Locally advanced or metastatic differentiated thyroid cancer resistant to radioactive iodine.

Symptoms: the clinically studied maximum dose of sorafenib is 800 mg twice daily. The adverse events observed at this dose were primarily diarrhea and skin reactions.
Treatment: symptomatic. The antidote to sorafenib is unknown.

The most serious adverse reactions when taking Sorafenib-Prommed were myocardial infarction/coronary heart disease, gastrointestinal perforation, drug-induced hepatitis, bleeding, and hypertension/hypertensive crisis.

 The most common adverse reactions were diarrhea, fatigue, alopecia, infection, skin reaction of the feet and hands (corresponding to palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia syndrome in the MedDRA dictionary) and rash.

(For more information about all possible adverse reactions, see the leaflet)

  • Hypersensitivity to sorafenib or any other component of the drug
  • Pregnancy
  • Breastfeeding period
  • Children under 18 years of age (efficacy and safety of use have not been established)

CYP3A4 inducers
Drugs that induce CYP3A4 activity (for example, rifampicin, phenytoin, carbamazepine, phenobarbital, dexamethasone and preparations containing St. John's wort extract) can increase the metabolism of sorafenib and, thus, reduce its concentration in the body.
Prolonged simultaneous administration of sorafenib with rifampicin resulted in a decrease in sorafenib AUC by an average of 37%. CYP3A4 inhibitors
Clinical pharmacokinetic interactions of sorafenib with cytochrome CYP3A4 inhibitors are unlikely.
CYP2C9 substrates
Concomitant administration of sorafenib and warfarin did not result in a change in the mean values of prothrombin time and INR compared with placebo. However, regular INR assessment is recommended for all patients receiving concomitant therapy with warfarin and sorafenib.
