Brigatinib (applies to Alunbrig) liver dysfunction
Moderate Potential Hazard, Moderate plausibility. Applicable conditions: Liver Disease
Following a single dose of 90 mg, unbound brigatinib systemic exposure was 37% higher in subjects with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh C) compared to subjects with normal hepatic function. It is recommended to reduce the dose by approximately 40% (i.e., from 180 mg to 120 mg, 120 mg to 90 mg, or from 90 mg to 60 mg) in these patients.

It is recommended to reduce dose by approximately 50% (i.e., from 180 mg to 90 mg, or from 90 mg to 60 mg) in these patients.
