2.4 Preparation and Administration

Reconstitute and dilute MONJUVI prior to infusion.

Reconstitution

  1. Calculate the dose (mg) and determine the number of vials needed.
  2. Reconstitute each 200 mg MONJUVI vial with 5 mL Sterile Water for Injection, USP with the stream directed toward the wall of each vial to obtain a final concentration of 40 mg/mL tafasitamab-cxix.
  3. Gently swirl the vial(s) until completely dissolved. Do not shake or swirl vigorously. Complete dissolution may take up to 5 minutes.
  4. Visually inspect the reconstituted solution for particulate matter or discoloration. The reconstituted solution should appear as a colorless to slightly yellow solution. Discard the vial(s) if the solution is cloudy, discolored, or contains visible particles.
  5. Use the reconstituted MONJUVI solution immediately. If needed, store the reconstituted solution in the vial for a maximum of 12 hours either refrigerated at 36°F to 46°F (2°C to 8°C) or room temperature at 68°F to 77°F (20°C to 25°C) before dilution. Protect from light during storage.

Dilution

  1. Determine the volume (mL) of the 40 mg/mL reconstituted MONJUVI solution needed based on the required dose.
  2. Remove a volume equal to the required MONJUVI solution from a 250 mL 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP infusion bag and discard it.
  3. Withdraw the necessary amount of MONJUVI and slowly dilute in the infusion bag that contains the 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP to a final concentration of 2 mg/mL to 8 mg/mL. Discard any unused portion of MONJUVI remaining in the vial.
  4. Gently mix the intravenous bag by slowly inverting the bag. Do not shake. Visually inspect the infusion bag with the diluted MONJUVI infusion solution for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration.
  5. If not used immediately, store the diluted MONJUVI infusion solution refrigerated for up to 18 hours at 36°F to 46°F (2°C to 8°C) and/or at room temperature for up to 12 hours at 68°F to 77°F (20°C to 25°C). The room temperature storage includes time for infusion. Protect from light during storage.

Do not shake or freeze the reconstituted or diluted infusion solutions.

Administration

  • Administer MONJUVI as an intravenous infusion.
    • For the first infusion, use an infusion rate of 70 mL/h for the first 30 minutes, then, increase the rate so that the infusion is administered within 1.5 to 2.5 hours.
    • Administer all subsequent infusions within 1.5 to 2 hours.
  • Infuse the entire contents of the bag containing MONJUVI.
  • Do not co-administer other drugs through the same infusion line.
  • No incompatibilities have been observed between MONJUVI with infusion containers made of polypropylene (PP), polyvinylchloride (PVC), polyethylene (PE), polyethylenterephthalate (PET), or glass and infusion sets made of polyurethane (PUR) or PVC.

5. Warnings and Precautions

5.1 Infusion-Related Reactions

MONJUVI can cause infusion-related reactions [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. In L-MIND, infusion-related reactions occurred in 6% of the 81 patients. Eighty percent of infusion-related reactions occurred during cycle 1 or 2. Signs and symptoms included chills, flushing, dyspnea, and hypertension. These reactions were managed with temporary interruption of the infusion and/or with supportive medication.

Premedicate patients prior to starting MONJUVI infusion [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)]. Monitor patients frequently during infusion. Based on the severity of the infusion-related reaction, interrupt or discontinue MONJUVI [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)]. Institute appropriate medical management.

5.2 Myelosuppression

MONJUVI can cause serious or severe myelosuppression, including neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and anemia [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. In L-MIND, Grade 3 neutropenia occurred in 25% of patients, thrombocytopenia in 12%, and anemia in 7%. Grade 4 neutropenia occurred in 25% and thrombocytopenia in 6%. Neutropenia led to treatment discontinuation in 3.7% of patients.

Monitor CBC prior to administration of each treatment cycle and throughout treatment. Monitor patients with neutropenia for signs of infection. Consider granulocyte colony-stimulating factor administration. Withhold MONJUVI based on the severity of the adverse reaction [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)]. Refer to the lenalidomide prescribing information for dosage modifications.

5.3 Infections

Fatal and serious infections, including opportunistic infections, occurred in patients during treatment with MONJUVI and following the last dose [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)].

In L-MIND, 73% of the 81 patients developed an infection. The most frequent infections were respiratory tract infection (24%), urinary tract infection (17%), bronchitis (16%), nasopharyngitis (10%) and pneumonia (10%). Grade 3 or higher infection occurred in 30% of the 81 patients. The most frequent grade 3 or higher infection was pneumonia (7%). Infection-related deaths were reported in 2.5% of the 81 patients.

Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of infection and manage infections as appropriate.

5.4 Embryo-Fetal Toxicity

Based on its mechanism of action, MONJUVI may cause fetal B-cell depletion when administered to a pregnant woman. Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with MONJUVI and for at least 3 months after the last dose [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1, 8.3)].

MONJUVI is initially administered in combination with lenalidomide. The combination of MONJUVI with lenalidomide is contraindicated in pregnant women because lenalidomide can cause birth defects and death of the unborn child. Refer to the lenalidomide prescribing information on use during pregnancy.

6. Adverse Reactions/Side Effects

The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling:

  • Infusion-related reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]
  • Myelosuppression [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)]
  • Infections [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)]

6.1 Clinical Trials Experience

Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in other clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.

Relapsed or Refractory Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma

The safety of MONJUVI was evaluated in L-MIND [see Clinical Studies (14)]. Patients (n=81) received MONJUVI 12 mg/kg intravenously in combination with lenalidomide for a maximum of 12 cycles, followed by MONJUVI as monotherapy until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity as follows:

  • Cycle 1: Days 1, 4, 8, 15 and 22 of the 28-day cycle;
  • Cycles 2 and 3: Days 1, 8, 15 and 22 of each 28-day cycle;
  • Cycles 4 and beyond: Days 1 and 15 of each 28-day cycle.

Among patients who received MONJUVI, 57% were exposed for 6 months or longer, 42% were exposed for greater than one year, and 24% were exposed for greater than two years.

Serious adverse reactions occurred in 52% of patients who received MONJUVI. Serious adverse reactions in ≥6% of patients included infections (26%), including pneumonia (7%), and febrile neutropenia (6%). Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 5% of patients who received MONJUVI, including cerebrovascular accident (1.2%), respiratory failure (1.2%), progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (1.2%) and sudden death (1.2%).

Permanent discontinuation of MONJUVI or lenalidomide due to an adverse reaction occurred in 25% of patients and permanent discontinuation of MONJUVI due to an adverse reaction occurred in 15%. The most frequent adverse reactions which resulted in permanent discontinuation of MONJUVI were infections (5%), nervous system disorders (2.5%), respiratory, thoracic and mediastinal disorders (2.5%).

Dosage interruptions of MONJUVI or lenalidomide due to an adverse reaction occurred in 69% of patients and dosage interruption of MONJUVI due to an adverse reaction occurred in 65%. The most frequent adverse reactions which required a dosage interruption of MONJUVI were blood and lymphatic system disorders (41%), and infections (27%).

The most common adverse reactions (≥ 20%) were neutropenia, fatigue, anemia, diarrhea, thrombocytopenia, cough, pyrexia, peripheral edema, respiratory tract infection, and decreased appetite.

8. Use In Specific Populations

12. Monjuvi - Clinical Pharmacology

12.3 Pharmacokinetics

Mean trough concentrations (± standard deviation) were 179 (± 53) μg/mL following administration of MONJUVI at 12 mg/kg on Days 1, 8, 15, and 22 in Cycle 1-3 (plus an additional dose on Cycle 1 Day 4), and 153 (± 68) μg/mL following administration of MONJUVI at 12 mg/kg on Days 1 and 15 from Cycle 4 onwards. Overall maximum tafasitamab-cxix serum concentrations were 483 (±109) μg/mL.

Distribution

The total volume of distribution for tafasitamab-cxix was 9.3 L (95% CI: 8.6, 10 L).

Elimination

The clearance of tafasitamab-cxix was 0.41 L/day (CV: 32%) and terminal elimination half-life was 17 days (95% CI: 15, 18 days).

Specific Populations

Bodyweight (40 to 163 kg) has a significant effect on the pharmacokinetics of tafasitamab-cxix, with higher clearance and volume of distribution expected with higher body weight. No clinically meaningful differences in the pharmacokinetics of tafasitamab-cxix were observed based on age (16 to 90 years), sex, mild to moderate renal impairment (CLcr 30-89 mL/min estimated by the Cockcroft-Gault equation), and mild hepatic impairment (total bilirubin ≤ ULN and AST > ULN, or total bilirubin 1 to 1.5 times ULN and any AST). The effect of severe renal impairment to end-stage renal disease (CLcr < 30 mL/min), moderate to severe hepatic impairment (total bilirubin > 1.5 times ULN and any AST), and race/ethnicity on tafasitamab-cxix pharmacokinetics is unknown.

Drug Interaction Studies

No clinically meaningful differences in tafasitamab-cxix pharmacokinetics were observed when used concomitantly with lenalidomide.

14. Clinical Studies

The efficacy of MONJUVI in combination with lenalidomide followed by MONJUVI as monotherapy was evaluated in L-MIND, an open-label, multicenter, single arm trial (NCT02399085). Eligible patients had relapsed or refractory DLBCL after 1 to 3 prior systemic therapies, including a CD20-directed cytolytic antibody, and were not candidates for high dose chemotherapy (HDC) followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). Patients received MONJUVI 12 mg/kg intravenously in combination with lenalidomide (25 mg orally on Days 1 to 21 of each 28-day cycle) for a maximum of 12 cycles, followed by MONJUVI as monotherapy until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity as follows:

  • Cycle 1: Days 1, 4, 8, 15 and 22 of the 28-day cycle;
  • Cycles 2 and 3: Days 1, 8, 15 and 22 of each 28-day cycle;
  • Cycles 4 and beyond: Days 1 and 15 of each 28-day cycle.

Of the 71 patients with DLBCL confirmed by central laboratory who received the combination therapy, the median age was 71 years (range: 41 to 86 years); 55% were males, and 100% had received a prior CD20-containing therapy. Race was collected in 92% of patients; of these, 95% were White, and 3% were Asian. The median number of prior therapies was two; 49% had one prior line of treatment, and 51% had 2 to 4 prior lines. Thirty-two patients (45%) were refractory to their last prior therapy and 30 (42%) were refractory to rituximab. Nine patients (13%) had received prior ASCT. The primary reasons patients were not candidates for ASCT included age (47%), refractoriness to salvage chemotherapy (27%), comorbidities (13%) and refusal of high dose chemotherapy/ASCT (13%).

Efficacy was established based on best overall response rate, defined as the proportion of complete and partial responders, and duration of response, as assessed by an Independent Review Committee using the International Working Group Response Criteria (Cheson, 2007). Results are summarized in Table 5.
