Erdafitinib Levels and Effects while Breastfeeding

Summary of Use during Lactation

No information is available on the clinical use of erdafitinib during breastfeeding. Because erdafitinib is 99.8% bound to plasma proteins, the amount in milk is likely to be low. However, its half-life is about 59 hours in adults and it might accumulate in the infant. The manufacturer recommends that breastfeeding be discontinued during erdafitinib therapy and for 1 month after the final dose.
