An FDA-authorized test for the detection of the DPYD gene to identify patients at risk of serious adverse reactions with capecitabine tablets are not currently available. Currently available tests used to identify DPYD variants may vary in accuracy and design (e.g., which DPYD variant(s) they identify). Avoid use of capecitabine tablets in patients known to have certain homozygous or compound heterozygous DPYD variants that result in complete DPD deficiency. No capecitabine tablets dose has been proven safe for patients with complete DPD deficiency. For patients with partial DPD deficiency, individualize the dosage and modify based on tolerability and intent of treatment [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )]. 2.2 Recommended Dosage for Colorectal Cancer Adjuvant Treatment of Colon Cancer Single Agent The recommended dosage of capecitabine tablets is 1,250 mg/m 2 orally twice daily for the first 14 days of each 21-day cycle for a maximum of 8 cycles.

The safety of capecitabine tablets for the treatment of adults with unresectable or metastatic gastric, esophageal, or gastroesophageal junction cancer as a component of a combination chemotherapy regimen was consistent with the known safety profile of capecitabine tablets. The safety of capecitabine tablets for the treatment of patients with HER2-overexpressing metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma who have not received prior treatment for metastatic disease as a component of a combination regimen was derived from the published literature [see Clinical Studies ( 14.3 )]. The safety of capecitabine tablets for the treatment of patients with HER2-overexpressing metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma was consistent with the known safety profile of capecitabine tablets. Pancreatic Cancer The safety of capecitabine tablets for the adjuvant treatment of adults with pancreatic adenocarcinoma as a component of a combination chemotherapy regimen was derived from the published literature [see Clinical Studies ( 14.4 )]. The safety of capecitabine tablets for the adjuvant treatment of adults with pancreatic adenocarcinoma as a component of a combination chemotherapy regimen was consistent with the known safety profile of capecitabine tablets. 6.2 Postmarketing Experience The following adverse reactions have been identified during post-approval use of capecitabine tablets. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure. Eye: lacrimal duct stenosis, corneal disorders including keratitis Hepatobiliary: hepatic failure Immune System Disorders: angioedema Nervous System: toxic leukoencephalopathy Renal & Urinary: acute renal failure secondary to dehydration including fatal outcome Skin & Subcutaneous Tissue: cutaneous lupus erythematosus, severe skin reactions such as Stevens-Johnson Syndrome and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN), persistent or severe PPES can eventually lead to loss of fingerprints
