Dosage and Administration
2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION Select patients for treatment based on the presence of ESR1 mutations. ( 2.1 ) The recommended dosage is 400 mg orally once daily, on an empty stomach. ( 2.2 ) Reduce the dose in patients with moderate or severe hepatic impairment ( 2.4 , 8.6 ) Dosage modifications may be required. ( 2.3 , 2.4 , 2.5 ) 2.1 Patient Selection Select patients for treatment of ER-positive, HER2-negative advanced or metastatic breast cancer with INLURIYO based on the presence of ESR1 mutation(s) in a plasma specimen using an FDA-approved test [see Indications and Usage ( 1 ) and Clinical Studies (14.1)] . Information on FDA-approved tests for the detection of ESR1 mutations in breast cancer is available at: https://www.fda.gov/CompanionDiagnostics . 2.2 Recommended Dosage and Administration The recommended dosage of INLURIYO is 400 mg orally once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Take on an empty stomach at least 2 hours before food, or 1 hour after food [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] . Take INLURIYO tablets at approximately the same time daily. Swallow the tablets whole. Do not split, crush, or chew the tablets. Pre/perimenopausal women and men should receive a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH) according to current clinical practice standards. If patient misses a dose by 6 or more hours or vomits, instruct the patient to take the next dose the following day at its scheduled time. 2.3 Dosage Modifications for Adverse Reactions The recommended INLURIYO dosage modifications for adverse reactions are provided in Tables 1 and 2 . The recommended dose reduction is to 200 mg once daily. Permanently discontinue INLURIYO in patients who are unable to tolerate 200 mg once daily.

Side Effects (Adverse Reactions)
6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The most common (incidence ≥10%) adverse reactions, including laboratory abnormalities were: hemoglobin decreased, musculoskeletal pain, calcium decreased, neutrophils decreased, AST increased, fatigue, diarrhea, ALT increased, triglycerides increased, nausea, platelets decreased, constipation, cholesterol increased, and abdominal pain. ( 6.1 ) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Eli Lilly and Company at 1-800-LillyRx (1-800-545-5979) or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch. 6.1 Clinical Trial Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice. The safety of INLURIYO was evaluated in 651 patients with ER+, HER2- locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer previously treated with endocrine therapy with or without a prior CDK4/6 inhibitor in EMBER-3 [see Clinical Studies (14.1)] . Patients received INLURIYO 400 mg orally, once daily (n=327), or standard of care (n=324) consisting of either fulvestrant (n=292) or exemestane (n=32). Among patients who were treated with INLURIYO, the median duration of exposure was 5.6 months (range: 0.2 to 28.6 months) in EMBER-3. Serious adverse reactions occurred in 10% of patients who received INLURIYO. Serious adverse reactions in > 1% of patients included pleural effusion (1.2%). Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 1.8% of patients who received INLURIYO, including cardiac arrest, acute myocardial infarction, right ventricular failure, hypovolemic shock, and upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage (each 0.3%). Permanent treatment discontinuation of INLURIYO due to an adverse reaction occurred in 4.6% of patients. Adverse reactions which resulted in permanent discontinuation of INLURIYO included increased alanine aminotransferase (0.9%), abdominal pain, fatigue, fractured sacrum, hepatotoxicity, neuropathy peripheral, and pyrexia (each 0.3%). Dosage interruption of INLURIYO due to an adverse reaction occurred in 10% of patients. Adverse reactions which required dosage interruption in >0.5% were vomiting (1.5%); increased aspartate aminotransferase and COVID-19 (each 0.9%); and increased alanine aminotransferase, anemia, diarrhea, decreased neutrophil count, and pyrexia (each 0.6%). Dose reductions of INLURIYO due to an adverse reaction occurred in 2.4% of patients. Adverse reactions which required dose reductions were increased aspartate aminotransferase (0.6%); and increased alanine aminotransferase, anemia, fatigue, interstitial lung disease, nausea, neutropenia, and vomiting (each 0.3%). The most common (≥10%) adverse reactions, including laboratory abnormalities, were hemoglobin decreased, musculoskeletal pain, calcium decreased, neutrophils decreased, AST increased, fatigue, diarrhea, ALT increased, triglycerides increased, nausea, platelets decreased, constipation, cholesterol increased, and abdominal pain.

Drug Interactions
7 DRUG INTERACTIONS Strong CYP3A Inhibitors: Avoid concomitant use with INLURIYO. If concomitant use cannot be avoided, decrease the INLURIYO dosage. ( 2.5 , 7.1 ) Strong CYP3A Inducers: Avoid concomitant use with INLURIYO. If concomitant use cannot be avoided, increase the INLURIYO dosage ( 2.5 , 7.1 ). 7.1 Effects of Other Drugs on INLURIYO Strong CYP3A Inhibitors Avoid concomitant use of INLURIYO with strong CYP3A inhibitors. If concomitant use cannot be avoided, reduce the dosage of INLURIYO [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.5 ), Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] . Imlunestrant is a CYP3A substrate. Concomitant use of a strong CYP3A inhibitor increases imlunestrant exposure [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] , which may increase the risk of INLURIYO-associated adverse reactions. Strong CYP3A Inducers Avoid concomitant use of INLURIYO with strong CYP3A inducers. If concomitant use cannot be avoided, increase the dosage of INLURIYO [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.5 ), Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )]. Imlunestrant is a CYP3A substrate. Concomitant use of a strong CYP3A inducer decreases imlunestrant exposure [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] , which may reduce effectiveness of INLURIYO. 7.2 Effects of INLURIYO on Other Drugs P-gp or BCRP Substrates Avoid concomitant use unless otherwise recommended in the Prescribing Information for P-gp or BCRP substrates where minimal concentration changes may lead to serious adverse reactions. Imlunestrant inhibits both P-gp and BCRP. Imlunestrant increases exposure of P-gp and BCRP substrates, which may increase the risk of adverse reactions related to these substrates [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )].

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding
8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Based on findings in animals and its mechanism of action, INLURIYO can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.1 )] . There are no available human data on INLURIYO use in pregnant women to inform the drug-associated risk. In an animal reproduction study, oral administration of imlunestrant to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis led to embryo-fetal mortality and structural abnormalities at maternal exposures below the human exposure at the recommended dose based on AUC ( see Data ). Advise pregnant women and females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to a fetus. The background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. However, the background risk in the U.S. general population of major birth defects is 2 to 4% and of miscarriage is 15 to 20% of clinically recognized pregnancies. Data Animal Data In an embryo-fetal development study, imlunestrant was administered orally to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis from gestation day 6 to 17 at doses of 0.3, 3, and 30 mg/kg/day. Imlunestrant caused embryo-fetal mortality (increased resorption, reduced number of live fetuses) at ≥0.3 mg/kg/day, approximately 0.1 times the human AUC at the recommended dose. Early delivery, fetal malformations (including small jaw, protruding tongue, malrotated, and hyperextended hindlimb) and fetal variations (edema localized subcutis) were observed at ≥3 mg/kg/day, approximately 1 time the human AUC at the recommended dose.
