Doses should be individualized based on safety and efficacy. Starting doses per indication are noted below. Myelofibrosis The starting dose of JAKAFI/JAKAFI XR is based on patient’s baseline platelet count: • Greater than 200 × 10 9 /L: JAKAFI 20 mg given orally twice daily or JAKAFI XR 44 mg given orally once daily. • 100 x 10 9 /L to 200 x 10 9 /L: JAKAFI 15 mg given orally twice daily or JAKAFI XR 33 mg given orally once daily. • 50 x 10 9 /L to less than 100 x 10 9 /L: JAKAFI 5 mg given orally twice daily or JAKAFI XR 11 mg given orally once daily. Polycythemia Vera The starting dose of JAKAFI is 10 mg given orally twice daily or JAKAFI XR 22 mg given orally once daily. Acute Graft-Versus-Host Disease The starting dose of JAKAFI is 5 mg given orally twice daily or JAKAFI XR 11 mg given orally once daily. Chronic Graft-Versus-Host Disease The starting dose of JAKAFI is 10 mg given orally twice daily or JAKAFI XR 22 mg given orally once daily
Monitoring to Assess Safety Prior to JAKAFI/JAKAFI XR treatment: Perform a complete blood count (CBC) . Inquire about past infections, including tuberculosis, herpes simplex, herpes zoster, and hepatitis B . During treatment with JAKAFI/JAKAFI XR : Perform a CBC every 2 to 4 weeks until doses are stabilized, and then as clinically indicated . Assess lipid parameters approximately 8 to 12 weeks following initiation of JAKAFI/JAKAFI XR therapy
Recommended Dosage for Myelofibrosis The recommended starting dose of JAKAFI/JAKAFI XR is based on platelet count (Table 1). Doses may be titrated based on safety and efficacy.

After recovery of platelet counts above 50 × 10 9 /L and ANC above 0.75 × 10 9 /L, dosing may be restarted. When restarting JAKAFI, begin with a dose that is at least 5 mg twice daily below the dose at interruption. When restarting JAKAFI XR, begin with a dose that is at least 11 mg once daily below the dose at interruption. The maximum allowable dose that may be used in restarting JAKAFI/JAKAFI XR after a previous interruption is outlined in Table 4 for thrombocytopenia and in Table 5 for neutropenia.

Discontinue for a second interruption OR For patients with dose greater than 11 mg once daily prior to interruption, restart at 11 mg once daily below the largest dose in the week prior to interruption Dose Modification Based on Insufficient Response for Patients With Myelofibrosis Starting Treatment With a Platelet Count of 100 × 10 9 /L or Greater If the response is insufficient and platelet and neutrophil counts are adequate, JAKAFI doses may be increased in 5 mg twice daily increments to a maximum of 25 mg twice daily. JAKAFI XR doses may be increased in 11 mg once daily increments to a maximum of 55 mg once daily. Doses should not be increased during the first 4 weeks of therapy and not more frequently than every 2 weeks. Consider dose increases in patients who meet all of the following conditions: Failure to achieve a reduction from pretreatment baseline in either palpable spleen length of 50% or a 35% reduction in spleen volume as measured by computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI); Platelet count greater than 125 x 10 9 /L at 4 weeks and platelet count never below 100 x 10 9 /L; ANC Levels greater than 0.75 x 10 9 /L. Based on limited clinical data, long-term maintenance at a JAKAFI 5 mg twice daily dose has not shown responses and continued use at this dose should be limited to patients in whom the benefits outweigh the potential risks. Discontinue JAKAFI/JAKAFI XR if there is no spleen size reduction or symptom improvement after 6 months of therapy. Dose Modifications for Hematologic Toxicity for Patients With Myelofibrosis Starting Treatment With Platelet Counts of 50 × 10 9 /L to Less Than 100 × 10 9 /L This section applies only to patients with platelet counts of 50 × 10 9 /L to less than 100 × 10 9 /L prior to any treatment with JAKAFI/JAKAFI XR. See dose modifications in Section 2.2 ( Dose Modification Guidelines for Hematologic Toxicity for Patients With Myelofibrosis Starting Treatment With a Platelet Count of 100 × 10 9 /L or Greater ) for hematological toxicity in patients whose platelet counts were 100 × 10 9 /L or more prior to starting treatment with JAKAFI/JAKAFI XR. Dose Reductions Reduce the dose of JAKAFI/JAKAFI XR for platelet counts less than 35 x 10 9 /L as described in Table 6. Table 6: Myelofibrosis: Dosing Modifications for Thrombocytopenia for Patients With Starting Platelet Count of 50 × 10 9 /L to Less Than 100 × 10 9 /L Platelet Count JAKAFI Dosing Recommendations JAKAFI XR Dosing Recommendations 25 × 10 9 /L to less than 35 × 10 9 /L AND the platelet count decline is 20% or greater during the prior 4 weeks For patients with dose greater than 5 mg twice daily, reduce the dose by 5 mg twice daily. For patients on 5 mg twice daily, reduce the dose to 5 mg once daily. For patients on 5 mg once daily, maintain dose at 5 mg once daily. Reduce dose by 11 mg once daily. For patients on 11 mg once daily, interrupt dosing. 25 × 10 9 /L to less than 35 × 10 9 /L AND the platelet count decline is less than 20% during the prior 4 weeks Less than 25 × 10 9 /L Interrupt dosing. Treatment Interruption and Restarting Dosing Interrupt treatment for platelet counts less than 25 x 10 9 /L or ANC less than 0.5 x 10 9 /L. After recovery of platelet counts above 35 × 10 9 /L and ANC above 0.75 × 10 9 /L, dosing may be restarted. For patients on a dose higher than 5 mg twice daily, when restarting JAKAFI, begin with a dose that is at least 5 mg twice daily below the largest dose in the week prior to interruption. For patients on JAKAFI 5 mg twice daily in the week prior to interruption, when restarting, reduce the dose to 5 mg once daily. When restarting JAKAFI XR, begin with a dose that is at least 11 mg once daily below the largest dose in the week prior to the treatment interruption. For patients on JAKAFI XR 11 mg once daily prior to the first interruption, continue JAKAFI XR 11 mg once daily. Discontinue JAKAFI XR for a second interruption. Dose Modifications Based on Insufficient Response for Patients With Myelofibrosis and Starting Platelet Count of 50 x 10 9 /L to Less Than 100 x 10 9 /L Do not increase doses during the first 4 weeks of therapy, and do not increase the dose more frequently than every 2 weeks. If the response is insufficient as defined in Section 2.2 , doses may be increased from JAKAFI 5 mg once daily to JAKAFI 5 mg twice daily, or from JAKAFI 5 mg twice daily to a maximum of 10 mg twice daily, if the following conditions are met. For patients on JAKAFI XR 11 mg once daily, dose may be increased to a maximum of 22 mg once daily if: the platelet count has remained at least 40 x 10 9 /L, and the platelet count has not fallen by more than 20% in the prior 4 weeks, and the ANC is more than 1 x 10 9 /L, and the dose has not been reduced or interrupted for an adverse event or hematological toxicity in the prior 4 weeks. Continuation of treatment for more than 6 months should be limited to patients in whom the benefits outweigh the potential risks. Discontinue JAKAFI/JAKAFI XR if there is no spleen size reduction or symptom improvement after 6 months of therapy. Dose Modification for Bleeding Interrupt treatment for bleeding requiring intervention regardless of current platelet count. Once the bleeding event has resolved, consider resuming treatment at the prior dose if the underlying cause of bleeding has been controlled. If the bleeding event has resolved but the underlying cause persists, consider resuming treatment with JAKAFI/JAKAFI XR at a lower dose
Recommended Dosage for Polycythemia Vera The recommended starting dose of JAKAFI is 10 mg orally twice daily. The recommended starting dose of JAKAFI XR is 22 mg orally once daily. Doses may be titrated based on safety and efficacy. Dose Modification Guidelines for Patients With Polycythemia Vera Dose Reductions Dose reductions should be considered for hemoglobin and platelet count decreases as described in Table 7. Table 7: Polycythemia Vera: Dose Reductions Hemoglobin and/or Platelet Count JAKAFI Dosing Recommendations JAKAFI XR Dosing Recommendations Hemoglobin 10 to less than 12 g/dL AND platelet count 75 to less than 100 x 10 9 /L Dose reductions should be considered with the goal of avoiding dose interruptions for anemia and thrombocytopenia. Hemoglobin 8 to less than 10 g/dL OR platelet count 50 to less than 75 x 10 9 /L Reduce dose by 5 mg twice daily. For patients on 5 mg twice daily, reduce the dose to 5 mg once daily. Reduce dose by 11 mg once daily. For patients on 11 mg once daily, interrupt dosing. Hemoglobin less than 8 g/dL OR platelet count less than 50 x 10 9 /L Interrupt dosing. Treatment Interruption and Restarting Dosing Interrupt treatment for hemoglobin less than 8 g/dL, platelet counts less than 50 x 10 9 /L or ANC less than 1 x 10 9 /L. After recovery of the hematologic parameter(s) to acceptable levels, dosing may be restarted. Table 8 illustrates the dose that may be used in restarting JAKAFI/JAKAFI XR after a previous interruption. Table 8: Polycythemia Vera: Restarting Doses for JAKAFI/JAKAFI XR After Safety Interruption for Hematologic Parameter(s) Use the most severe category of a patient’s hemoglobin, platelet count, or ANC abnormality to determine the corresponding maximum restarting dose. Hemoglobin, Platelet Count, or ANC JAKAFI Maximum Restarting Dose JAKAFI XR Maximum Restarting Dose Hemoglobin less than 8 g/dL OR platelet count less than 50 x 10 9 /L OR ANC less than 1 x 10 9 /L Continue hold Hemoglobin 8 to less than 10 g/dL OR platelet count 50 to less than 75 x 10 9 /L OR ANC 1 to less than 1.5 x 10 9 /L 5 mg twice daily Continue JAKAFI treatment for at least 2 weeks; if stable, may increase dose by 5 mg twice daily. or no more than 5 mg twice daily less than the dose which resulted in dose interruption 11 mg once daily Continue JAKAFI XR treatment for at least 2 weeks; if stable, may increase dose by 11 mg once daily. or no more than 11 mg once daily less than the dose which resulted in dose interruption Hemoglobin 10 to less than 12 g/dL OR platelet count 75 to less than 100 x 10 9 /L OR ANC 1.5 to less than 2 x 10 9 /L 10 mg twice daily or no more than 5 mg twice daily less than the dose which resulted in dose interruption 22 mg once daily or no more than 11 mg once daily less than the dose which resulted in dose interruption Hemoglobin greater than or equal to 12 g/dL OR platelet count greater than or equal to 100 x 10 9 /L OR ANC greater than or equal to 2 x 10 9 /L 15 mg twice daily or no more than 5 mg twice daily less than the dose which resulted in dose interruption 33 mg once daily or no more than 11 mg once daily less than the dose which resulted in dose interruption JAKAFI Patients who had required dose interruption while receiving a dose of 5 mg twice daily, may restart JAKAFI at a dose of 5 mg twice daily or 5 mg once daily, but not higher, once hemoglobin is greater than or equal to 10 g/dL, platelet count is greater than or equal to 75 × 10 9 /L, and ANC is greater than or equal to 1.5 × 10 9 /L. JAKAFI XR Patients who had required dose interruption while receiving a dose of 11 mg once daily, may restart JAKAFI XR at a dose of 11 mg once daily, but not higher, once hemoglobin is greater than or equal to 10 g/dL, platelet count is greater than or equal to 75 × 10 9 /L, and ANC is greater than or equal to 1.5 × 10 9 /L. Dose Management After Restarting Treatment After restarting JAKAFI/JAKAFI XR following treatment interruption, doses may be titrated, but the maximum total daily dose should not exceed 5 mg twice daily (JAKAFI) or 11 mg once daily (JAKAFI XR) less than the dose that resulted in the dose interruption. An exception to this is dose interruption following phlebotomy-associated anemia, in which case the maximal total daily dose allowed after restarting JAKAFI/JAKAFI XR would not be limited. Dose Modifications Based on Insufficient Response for Patients With Polycythemia Vera If the response is insufficient and platelet, hemoglobin, and neutrophil counts are adequate, doses may be increased: JAKAFI: in 5 mg twice daily increments to a maximum of 25 mg twice daily. JAKAFI XR: in 11 mg once daily increments to a maximum of 55 mg once daily. Doses should not be increased during the first 4 weeks of therapy and not more frequently than every 2 weeks. Consider dose increases in patients who meet all of the following conditions: Inadequate efficacy as demonstrated by 1 or more of the following: Continued need for phlebotomy WBC greater than the upper limit of normal range Platelet count greater than the upper limit of normal range Palpable spleen that is reduced by less than 25% from baseline Platelet count greater than or equal to 140 x 10 9 /L Hemoglobin greater than or equal to 12 g/dL ANC greater than or equal to 1.5 x 10 9 /L 2.4 Recommended Dosage for Acute Graft-Versus-Host Disease JAKAFI The recommended starting dose of JAKAFI is 5 mg given orally twice daily. Consider increasing the dose to 10 mg twice daily after at least 3 days of treatment if the ANC and platelet counts are not decreased by 50% or more relative to the first day of dosing with JAKAFI. JAKAFI XR The recommended starting dose of JAKAFI XR is 11 mg given orally once daily. Consider increasing the dose to 22 mg once daily after at least 3 days of treatment if the ANC and platelet counts are not decreased by 50% or more relative to the first day of dosing with JAKAFI XR. Treatment Completion Consider tapering JAKAFI/JAKAFI XR after 6 months of treatment in patients with response who have discontinued therapeutic doses of corticosteroids. Taper JAKAFI/JAKAFI XR by one dose level approximately every 8 weeks using the dose levels shown in Table 9. If aGVHD signs or symptoms recur during or after the taper of JAKAFI/JAKAFI XR, consider retreatment.

Method of Administration JAKAFI JAKAFI is dosed orally and can be administered with or without food. If a dose is missed, the patient should not take an additional dose, but should take the next usual prescribed dose. When discontinuing JAKAFI therapy for reasons other than potentially life-threatening toxicities, gradually taper the dose of JAKAFI, for example by 5 mg twice daily each week. For patients unable to ingest tablets, JAKAFI can be administered through a nasogastric tube (8 French or greater) as follows: Suspend 1 tablet in approximately 40 mL of water with stirring for approximately 10 minutes. Within 6 hours after the tablet has dispersed, the suspension can be administered through a nasogastric tube using an appropriate syringe. The tube should be rinsed with approximately 75 mL of water. The effect of tube feeding preparations on JAKAFI exposure during administration through a nasogastric tube has not been evaluated. JAKAFI XR JAKAFI XR is dosed orally and can be administered with or without food. Swallow JAKAFI XR tablets whole. Do not split, chew, or crush. If a dose is missed, the patient should not take an additional dose, but should take the next usual prescribed dose. When discontinuing JAKAFI XR therapy for reasons other than potentially life-threatening toxicities, gradually taper the dose of JAKAFI XR, for example by 11 mg once daily each week for JAKAFI XR.
