IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

BRAFTOVI (encorafenib) and MEKTOVI (binimetinib) may cause serious side effects, including:

• Risk of new skin cancers. BRAFTOVI, when used alone or with MEKTOVI, may cause skin cancers called cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma or basal cell carcinoma. Talk to your healthcare provider about your risk for these cancers.

Check your skin and tell your healthcare provider right away about any skin changes, including a:

• • new wart
  • skin sore or reddish bump that bleeds or does not heal
  • change in size or color of a mole

Your healthcare provider should check your skin before treatment, every 2 months during treatment, and for up to 6 months after you stop treatment to look for any new skin cancers.

Your healthcare provider should also check for cancers that may not occur on the skin. Tell your healthcare provider about any new symptoms that develop during treatment.

• Heart problems, including heart failure. BRAFTOVI, when taken with MEKTOVI, can cause heart problems. Your healthcare provider will check your heart function before and during treatment. Tell your healthcare provider right away if you have any of the following signs and symptoms of a heart problem:
  • feeling like your heart is pounding or racing

• Muscle problems (rhabdomyolysis). MEKTOVI, when taken with BRAFTOVI, can cause muscle problems that can be severe. MEKTOVI may increase the level of an enzyme in your blood called creatine phosphokinase (CPK) and can be a sign of muscle damage. Your healthcare provider should perform a blood test to check your CPK levels before and during treatment. Tell your healthcare provider right away if you develop any of these symptoms:
  • weakness
  • muscle aches or pain

Tell your healthcare provider right away if you feel faint, light-headed, dizzy, or if you feel your heart beating irregularly or fast during treatment with BRAFTOVI and MEKTOVI. These symptoms may be related to QT prolongation
