Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Indicated, in combination with low-dose cytarabine, for newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in adults aged ≥75 years or who have comorbidities that preclude use of intensive induction chemotherapy
100 mg PO qDay on days 1-28 of each 28-day cycle; administer in combination with cytarabine 20 mg SC BID on days 1-10
For patients without unacceptable toxicity, treat for a minimum of 6 cycles to allow time for clinical response
Dosage Modifications
QT prolongation (≥2 separate ECGs)
-
QTc >480 to 500 ms
- Assess electrolyte levels and supplement as clinically indicated
- Review and adjust concomitant medications with known QTc interval-prolonging effects
- Monitor ECGs at least weekly for 2 weeks following QTc prolongation resolution to ≤480 ms
-
QT >500 ms
- Assess electrolyte levels and supplement as clinically indicated
- Review and adjust concomitant medications with known QTc interval-prolonging effects
- Interrupt glasdegib dosing; resume at reduced dose of 50 mg qDay when QTc interval returns to within 30 ms of baseline or ≤480 ms
- Monitor ECGs at least weekly for 2 weeks following QTc prolongation resolution
- Consider re-escalating glasdegib dose to 100 mg qDay if other etiology identified for QTc prolongation
-
QTc prolongation with life-threatening arrhythmia
- Discontinue permanently
Hematologic toxicity
- Platelets <10 Gi/L or neutrophil count <0.5 Gi/L for >42 days in absence of disease: Discontinue glasdegib and cytarabine permanently
Nonhematologic toxicity
-
Grade 3
- Interrupt glasdegib and/or cytarabine until symptoms reduce to mild or return to baseline
- Resume glasdegib at the same dose level, or reduce dose to 50 mg
- Resume cytarabine at the same dose level, or reduce dose to 15 mg or 10 mg
- If toxicity recurs, discontinue glasdegib and cytarabine
- If toxicity attributed only to glasdegib, cytarabine may be continued
-
Grade 4
- Discontinue glasdegib and cytarabine permanently
Strong or moderate CYP3A4 inducers
- Avoid; coadministration may decrease glasdegib plasma concentrations, thereby reducing efficacy
- May increase glasdegib dose if coadministration with moderate CYP3A4 inducers cannot be avoided
-
Glasdegib dose adjustment if coadministration with moderate CYP3A4 inducer
- If taking 100 mg/day: Increase to 200 mg PO qDay
- If taking 50 mg/day: Increase to 100 mg PO qDay
- After moderate CYP3A4 inducer discontinued for 7 days, resume previous glasdegib dose
Renal impairment
- Mild-to-severe (eGFR 15-89 mL/min): No dosage modifications recommended
- Monitor patients with severe renal impairment (eGFR 15-29 mL/min) for increased risk of adverse effects including QTc prolongation owing to increased serum levels
Hepatic impairment
- Not studied
Dosing Considerations
Limitations of use: Not studied in patients with severe renal impairment or moderate-to-severe hepatic impairment
Conduct pregnancy testing in females of reproductive potential before initiating
Monitoring
- Assess complete blood cell counts, electrolytes, renal function, and hepatic function before initiating and at least once weekly for the first month
- Monitor electrolytes and renal function once monthly for the duration of therapy
- Obtain serum creatine kinase levels before initiating and as indicated clinically thereafter (eg, if muscle symptoms are reported)
- Monitor ECG) before initiating, ~1 week after initiation, and then once monthly for the next 2 months to assess for QTc prolongation; repeat ECG if abnormal; certain patients may require more frequent and ongoing ECG monitoring
Safety and efficacy not established
See adult dosing
Of the total number of patients in clinical trials, 98% were aged ≥65 years and 60% were aged ≥75 years
There were insufficient patients younger than age 65 years to determine differences in adverse reactions reported from patients older than 65 years

Embryo-fetal toxicity
- Can cause embryo-fetal death or severe birth defects when administered to pregnant women; it is embryotoxic, fetotoxic, and teratogenic in animals
- Conduct pregnancy testing in females of reproductive potential before initiating
- Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment and for at least 30 days after last dose
- Advise males of the potential risk of exposure through semen and to use condoms with a pregnant partner or a female partner of reproductive potential during treatment and for at least 30 days after last dose
Contraindications
None
Cautions
Based on mechanism of action and findings from animal studies, can cause embryo-fetal death or severe birth defects when administered to pregnant women (see Black Box Warnings and Pregnancy)
Development of QTc prolongation and ventricular arrhythmias reported, including ventricular fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia; more frequent ECG monitoring advised in patients with congenital long QT syndrome, congestive heart failure, electrolyte abnormalities, or those who are taking medications known to prolong the QTc interval (see Drug Interactions)
Musculoskeletal adverse reactions
- Musculoskeletal adverse reactions, which may be accompanied by CPK elevations, have occurred with this medication, which inhibits hedgehog (Hh) pathway; the most frequent manifestations of musculoskeletal adverse reactions reported include musculoskeletal pain and muscle spasms; increased CPK laboratory values occurred in 16% of patients
- Obtain baseline CPK levels prior to initiating therapy and as clinically indicated (eg, if muscle symptoms are reported); obtain CPK and serum creatinine levels at least weekly in patients with musculoskeletal adverse reactions with concurrent CPK elevation greater than 2.5 times ULN until resolution of clinical signs and symptoms; depending on severity of symptoms, temporary dose interruption, dose reduction, or discontinuation of therapy may be required for musculoskeletal adverse reactions or serum CPK elevation
Drug interaction overview
- Glasdegib primarily metabolized by CYP3A
-
Strong CYP3A inhibitors
- Coadministration may increase glasdegib plasma concentrations and increase risk for QT prolongation
-
Strong or moderate CYP3A inducers
- Avoid; coadministration may decrease glasdegib plasma concentrations, thereby reducing efficacy
- May increase glasdegib dose if coadministration with moderate CYP3A4 inducers cannot be avoided
-
Prolonged QTc
- Associated with concentration-dependent QTc prolongation
- Avoid coadministration with QTc prolonging drugs
- If unavoidable, monitor for increased risk of QTc interval prolongation
Pregnancy
Pregnancy
Based on its mechanism of action and findings in animal embryo-fetal developmental toxicity studies, glasdegib can cause fetal harm when administered to pregnant women
Animal studies
- Exposure 3-4 times that of humans: Resulted in embryo-fetal lethality (eg, increased postimplantation loss and decreased numbers of live fetuses) in rats and rabbits
- Exposure 0.6 times that of humans: Fetal developmental abnormalities and malformations consisting of craniofacial malformations; malformed limbs, paws/digits, trunk, and tail; dilation of brain; malpositioned/malformed eyes; misshapen head; small tongue; absent palate, teeth, and viscera; diaphragmatic hernia; edema; heart defects; rib and vertebral abnormalities; malformed or absent structures in the appendicular skeleton
Infertility
- Males: Based on findings in repeat-dose animal toxicity studies in rats, may impair fertility in males of reproductive potential; some effects on male reproductive organs did not recover
Contraception
-
Females of reproductive potential
- Use effective contraception during treatment and for at least 30 days after last dose
- Do not donate blood during treatment and for at least 30 days after last dose
-
Males
- Unknown if present in semen
- Advise males of the potential risk of exposure through semen and to use effective contraception, including a condom, even after a vasectomy, to avoid drug exposure to a pregnant partner or a female partner of reproductive potential during treatment for at least 30 days after last dose
- Advise males to not donate sperm or blood during treatment and for at least 30 days after last dose
Lactation
- No data are available on the presence in human milk, effects on the breastfed child, or effect on milk production
- Advise women not to breastfeed or provide breast milk to infants or children during treatment and for at least 30 days after last dose
Pregnancy Categories
A: Generally acceptable. Controlled studies in pregnant women show no evidence of fetal risk.
B: May be acceptable. Either animal studies show no risk but human studies not available or animal studies showed minor risks and human studies done and showed no risk. C: Use with caution if benefits outweigh risks. Animal studies show risk and human studies not available or neither animal nor human studies done. D: Use in LIFE-THREATENING emergencies when no safer drug available. Positive evidence of human fetal risk. X: Do not use in pregnancy. Risks involved outweigh potential benefits. Safer alternatives exist. NA: Information not available.Pharmacology
Mechanism of Action
Inhibits the smoothen (SMO) receptor, a transmembrane protein involved in hedgehog (Hh) signal transduction, thereby disrupting the Hh pathway
