About Orgovyx

What is this medication? Orgovyx, which has the generic name relugolix, is an oral prescription medication used to treat adult patients with advanced prostate cancer. It is categorized as a gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor antagonist. The medication works by blocking the pituitary gland from signaling the testes to produce testosterone. Since prostate cancer cells often rely on testosterone to grow and multiply, reducing the amount of this hormone in the body can help slow the progression of the disease and shrink existing tumors.

As the first oral treatment of its kind for advanced prostate cancer, this medication offers an alternative to traditional injectable hormone therapies. It is typically taken as a single tablet once a day at approximately the same time. One of the primary advantages of this specific drug is its ability to rapidly lower testosterone levels without causing an initial hormonal flare. Patients using this treatment are monitored by their doctors to ensure testosterone remains at suppressed levels and to manage any potential side effects associated with androgen deprivation.

Prescribing information

From the FDA-approved label for Orgovyx. Official source: DailyMed (NLM) · Label effective Oct 10, 2025

Indications and usage
1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE ORGOVYX is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with advanced prostate cancer. ORGOVYX is a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) receptor antagonist indicated for the treatment of adult patients with advanced prostate cancer ( 1 ).
Dosage and administration
2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION Recommended Dosage: A loading dose of 360 mg on the first day of treatment followed by 120 mg taken orally once daily, at approximately the same time each day ( 2.1 ). ORGOVYX can be taken with or without food ( 2.1 , 12.3 ). Instruct patients to swallow tablets whole and not to crush or chew tablets ( 2.1 ). 2.1 Recommended Dosage Initiate treatment of ORGOVYX with a loading dose of 360 mg on the first day and continue treatment with a 120 mg dose taken orally once daily at approximately the same time each day. ORGOVYX can be taken with or without food [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] . Instruct patients to swallow tablets whole and not to crush or chew tablets. Advise patients to take a missed dose of ORGOVYX as soon as they remember. If the dose was missed by more than 12 hours, patients should not take the missed dose and resume with the next scheduled dose. If treatment with ORGOVYX is interrupted for greater than 7 days, restart ORGOVYX with a loading dose of 360 mg on the first day, and continue with a dose of 120 mg once daily. In patients treated with GnRH receptor agonists and antagonists for prostate cancer, treatment is usually continued upon development of nonmetastatic or metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. 2.2 Dosage Modifications for P-gp Inhibitors Avoid co-administration of ORGOVYX with oral P-gp inhibitors. If co-administration is unavoidable, take ORGOVYX first and separate dosing by at least 6 hours [ see Drug Interactions ( 7.1 ) and Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 ) ] . Monitor patients for increased adverse reactions. Treatment with ORGOVYX may be interrupted for up to two weeks if a short course of treatment with a P-gp inhibitor is required. Resume ORGOVYX after the P-gp inhibitor is discontinued. If treatment with ORGOVYX is interrupted for greater than 7 days, restart ORGOVYX with a loading dose of 360 mg on the first day and continue with a dose of 120 mg once daily. 2.3 Dosage Modifications for Combined P-gp and Strong CYP3A Inducers Avoid co-administration of ORGOVYX with combined P-gp and strong CYP3A inducers. If co-administration is unavoidable, increase the ORGOVYX dose to 240 mg once daily. After discontinuation of the combined P-gp and strong CYP3A inducer, resume the recommended ORGOVYX dose of 120 mg once daily [see Drug Interactions ( 7.1 ) and Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] .
Contraindications
4 CONTRAINDICATIONS ORGOVYX is contraindicated in patients with severe hypersensitivity to relugolix or to any of the product components. Known severe hypersensitivity to relugolix or to any of the product components ( 4 ).
Warnings and precautions
5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS QT/QTc Interval Prolongation: Androgen deprivation therapy may prolong the QT interval ( 5.1 ). Hypersensitivity: ORGOVYX can cause hypersensitivity reactions, including angioedema. Withhold ORGOVYX in patients who experience symptoms of hypersensitivity. Discontinue ORGOVYX for severe hypersensitivity reactions and manage as clinically indicated ( 5.2 ). Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: ORGOVYX can cause fetal harm. Advise males with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception ( 5.3 , 8.1 , 8.3 ). 5.1 QT/QTc Interval Prolongation Androgen deprivation therapy, such as ORGOVYX, may prolong the QT/QTc interval. Providers should consider whether the benefits of androgen deprivation therapy outweigh the potential risks in patients with congenital long QT syndrome, congestive heart failure, or frequent electrolyte abnormalities and in patients taking drugs known to prolong the QT interval. Electrolyte abnormalities should be corrected. Consider periodic monitoring of electrocardiograms and electrolytes [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.2 )]. 5.2 Hypersensitivity Reactions ORGOVYX is contraindicated in patients with severe hypersensitivity to relugolix or any of the product components [see Contraindications ( 4 )] . Hypersensitivity reactions, including pharyngeal edema and other serious cases of angioedema, have been reported postmarketing in patients treated with ORGOVYX. In HERO, patients treated with relugolix reported angioedema (0.2%) [see Clinical Trials Experience ( 6.1 )] . Advise patients who experience any symptoms of hypersensitivity to temporarily discontinue ORGOVYX and promptly seek medical care. Discontinue ORGOVYX for severe hypersensitivity reactions and manage as clinically indicated. 5.3 Embryo-Fetal Toxicity The safety and efficacy of ORGOVYX have not been established in females. Based on findings in animals and mechanism of action, ORGOVYX can cause fetal harm and loss of pregnancy when administered to a pregnant female. In an animal reproduction study, oral administration of relugolix to pregnant rabbits during the period of organogenesis caused embryo-fetal lethality at maternal exposures that were 0.3 times the human exposure at the recommended dose of 120 mg daily based on area under the curve (AUC). Advise males with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment and for 2 weeks after the last dose of ORGOVYX [see Use in Specific Populations ( 8.1 , 8.3 ) and Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.1 )] . 5.4 Laboratory Testing Therapy with ORGOVYX results in suppression of the pituitary gonadal system. Results of diagnostic tests of the pituitary gonadotropic and gonadal functions conducted during and after ORGOVYX may be affected. The therapeutic effect of ORGOVYX should be monitored by measuring serum concentrations of prostate specific antigen (PSA) periodically. If PSA increases, serum concentrations of testosterone should be measured.
Drug interactions
7 DRUG INTERACTIONS P-gp Inhibitors: Avoid co-administration. If unavoidable, take ORGOVYX first, separate dosing by at least 6 hours, and monitor patients more frequently for adverse reactions ( 2.2 , 7.1 ). Combined P-gp and Strong CYP3A Inducers: Avoid co-administration. If unavoidable, increase the ORGOVYX dose to 240 mg once daily ( 2.3 , 7.1 ). 7.1 Effect of Other Drugs on ORGOVYX P-gp Inhibitors Relugolix is a P-gp substrate. Co-administration of ORGOVYX with an oral P-gp inhibitor increases relugolix exposure [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )], which may increase the risk of adverse reactions associated with ORGOVYX. Avoid co-administration of ORGOVYX with oral P-gp inhibitors. If co-administration with an oral P-gp inhibitor cannot be avoided, take ORGOVYX first and separate dosing by at least 6 hours. Monitor patients for increased adverse reactions [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.2 )] . Treatment with ORGOVYX may be interrupted for up to two weeks if a short course of treatment with a P-gp inhibitor is required. Resume ORGOVYX after the P-gp inhibitor is discontinued. If treatment with ORGOVYX is interrupted for greater than 7 days, restart ORGOVYX with a loading dose of 360 mg on the first day and continue with a dose of 120 mg once daily. Combined P-gp and Strong CYP3A Inducers Relugolix is a P-gp and CYP3A substrate. Co-administration of ORGOVYX with a combined P-gp and strong CYP3A inducer decreases relugolix exposure, which may reduce the effects of ORGOVYX [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )]. Avoid co-administration of ORGOVYX with combined P-gp and strong CYP3A inducers. If co-administration cannot be avoided, increase the ORGOVYX dose. After discontinuation of the combined P-gp and strong CYP3A inducer, resume ORGOVYX once daily at the same dose [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.3 )] .
Adverse reactions
6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling: QT/QTc Interval Prolongation [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )] . The most common adverse reactions (≥ 10%) and laboratory abnormalities (≥ 15%) were hot flush, glucose increased, triglycerides increased, musculoskeletal pain, hemoglobin decreased, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) increased, fatigue, aspartate aminotransferase (AST) increased, constipation, and diarrhea ( 6.1 ). To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Sumitomo Pharma America, at 1-833-696-8268 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch . 6.1 Clinical Trials 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 ORGOVYX was evaluated in HERO, a randomized (2:1), open-label, clinical study in patients with advanced prostate cancer [see Clinical Studies ( 14 )] . Patients received orally administered ORGOVYX as a loading dose of 360 mg on the first day followed by 120 mg taken orally once daily (n = 622) or received leuprolide acetate administered by depot injection at doses of 22.5 mg (n = 264) or 11.25 mg (n = 44) per local guidelines every 12 weeks (n = 308). Leuprolide acetate 11.25 mg is a dosing regimen that is not recommended for this indication in the US. Among patients who received ORGOVYX, 91% were exposed for at least 48 weeks. Ninety-nine (16%) patients received concomitant radiotherapy and 17 (3%) patients received concomitant enzalutamide with ORGOVYX. Serious adverse reactions occurred in 12% of patients receiving ORGOVYX. Serious adverse reactions in ≥ 0.5% of patients included myocardial infarction (0.8%), acute kidney injury (0.6%), arrhythmia (0.6%), hemorrhage (0.6%), and urinary tract infection (0.5%). Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 0.8% of patients receiving ORGOVYX including metastatic lung cancer (0.3%), myocardial infarction (0.3%), and acute kidney injury (0.2%). Fatal and non-fatal myocardial infarction and stroke were reported in 2.7% of patients receiving ORGOVYX. Permanent discontinuation of ORGOVYX due to an adverse reaction occurred in 3.5% of patients. Adverse reactions which resulted in permanent discontinuation of ORGOVYX in ≥ 0.3 % of patients included atrioventricular block (0.3%), cardiac failure (0.3%), hemorrhage (0.3%), increased transaminases (0.3%), abdominal pain (0.3%), and pneumonia (0.3%). Dosage interruptions of ORGOVYX due to an adverse reaction occurred in 2.7% of patients. Adverse reactions which required dosage interruption in ≥ 0.3% of patients included fracture (0.3%). The most common adverse reactions (≥ 10%) and laboratory abnormalities (≥ 15%) were hot flush (54%), glucose increased (44%), triglycerides increased (35%), musculoskeletal pain (30%), hemoglobin decreased (28%), alanine aminotransferase increased (ALT) (27%), fatigue (26%), aspartate aminotransferase increased (AST) (18%), constipation (12%), and diarrhea (12%). Table 1 summarizes the adverse reactions in HERO. Table 1: Adverse Reactions ( ≥ 10%) of Patients with Advanced Prostate Cancer Who Received ORGOVYX in HERO a Includes arthralgia, back pain, pain in extremity, musculoskeletal pain, myalgia, bone pain, neck pain, arthritis, musculoskeletal stiffness, non-cardiac chest pain, musculoskeletal chest pain, spinal pain, and musculoskeletal discomfort. b Includes fatigue and asthenia. c Includes diarrhea and colitis.

Immune system disorders: hypersensitivity, including angioedema and urticaria.
Use in pregnancy
8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary The safety and efficacy of ORGOVYX have not been established in females. Based on findings in animals and mechanism of action, ORGOVYX can cause fetal harm and loss of pregnancy when administered to a pregnant female [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.1 )] . There are no human data on the use of ORGOVYX in pregnant females to inform the drug-associated risk. In an animal reproduction study, oral administration of relugolix to pregnant rabbits during organogenesis caused embryo-fetal lethality at maternal exposures that were 0.3 times the human exposure at the recommended dose of 120 mg daily based on AUC ( see Data ). Advise patients of the potential risk to the fetus. Data Animal Data In an embryo-fetal development study, oral administration of relugolix to pregnant rabbits during the period of organogenesis resulted in abortion, total litter loss, or decreased number of live fetuses at a dose of 9 mg/kg/day (approximately 0.3 times the human exposure at the recommended dose of 120 mg daily based on AUC).
