Summary of Use during Lactation

No information is available on the clinical use of cabozantinib during breastfeeding. Because cabozantinib is more than 97% bound to plasma proteins, the amount in milk is likely to be low. However, its half-life ranges from 55 to 99 hours and it might accumulate in the infant. The manufacturer recommends that breastfeeding be discontinued during cabozantinib therapy and for 4 months after the last dose.
