Important Safety Information

Boxed WARNINGS: Cardiomyopathy- Trastuzumab products administration can result in sub-clinical and clinical cardiac failure. The incidence and severity was highest in patients receiving trastuzumab with anthracycline-containing chemotherapy regimens

  • Evaluate left ventricular function in all patients prior to and during treatment with KANJINTI®. Discontinue KANJINTI® treatment in patients receiving adjuvant therapy and withhold KANJINTI® in patients with metastatic disease for clinically significant decrease in left ventricular function

Infusion Reactions; Pulmonary Toxicity- Trastuzumab products administration can result in serious and fatal infusion reactions and pulmonary toxicity. Symptoms usually occur during or within 24 hours of administration. Interrupt KANJINTI® infusion for dyspnea or clinically significant hypotension. Monitor patients until symptoms completely resolve. Discontinue KANJINTI® for anaphylaxis, angioedema, interstitial pneumonitis, or acute respiratory distress syndrome

Embryo-Fetal Toxicity- Exposure to trastuzumab products during pregnancy can result in oligohydramnios and oligohydramnios sequence manifesting as pulmonary hypoplasia, skeletal abnormalities, and neonatal death. Advise patients of these risks and the need for effective contraception

Additional Important Safety Information

Cardiomyopathy

  • Administration of trastuzumab products can result in sub-clinical and clinical cardiac failure. The incidence and severity was highest in patients receiving trastuzumab with anthracycline-containing chemotherapy regimens. In a pivotal adjuvant breast cancer trial, one patient who developed CHF died of cardiomyopathy

  • Trastuzumab products can cause left ventricular cardiac dysfunction, arrhythmias, hypertension, disabling cardiac failure, cardiomyopathy, and cardiac death

  • Trastuzumab products can also cause asymptomatic decline in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)

  • Discontinue KANJINTI® treatment in patients receiving adjuvant breast cancer therapy and withhold KANJINTI® in patients with metastatic disease for clinically significant decrease in left ventricular function

Cardiac Monitoring

  • Evaluate cardiac function prior to and during treatment. For adjuvant breast cancer therapy, also evaluate cardiac function after completion of KANJINTI®

  • Conduct thorough cardiac assessment, including history, physical examination, and determination of LVEF by echocardiogram or MUGA scan

  • Monitor frequently for decreased left ventricular function during and after KANJINTI® treatment

  • Monitor more frequently if KANJINTI® is withheld for significant left ventricular cardiac dysfunction

Infusion Reactions

  • KANJINTI® administration can result in serious and fatal infusion reactions

  • Symptoms usually occur during or within 24 hours of KANJINTI® administration

  • Interrupt KANJINTI® infusion for dyspnea or clinically significant hypotension

  • Monitor patients until symptoms completely resolve

  • Discontinue KANJINTI® for infusion reactions manifesting as anaphylaxis, angioedema, interstitial pneumonitis, or acute respiratory distress syndrome. Strongly consider permanent discontinuation in all patients with severe infusion reactions

  • Infusion reactions consist of a symptom complex characterized by fever and chills, and on occasion include nausea, vomiting, pain (in some cases at tumor sites), headache, dizziness, dyspnea, hypotension, rash, and asthenia

Embryo-Fetal Toxicity

  • Exposure to trastuzumab products during pregnancy can result in oligohydramnios and oligohydramnios sequence manifesting as pulmonary hypoplasia, skeletal abnormalities, and neonatal death. Advise patients of these risks and the need for effective contraception

  • Verify the pregnancy status of females of reproductive potential prior to the initiation of KANJINTI®

  • Advise pregnant women and females of reproductive potential that exposure to KANJINTI® during pregnancy or within 7 months prior to conception can result in fetal harm

  • Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment and for at least 7 months following the last dose of KANJINTI®. Advise female patients to contact their healthcare provider with a known or suspected pregnancy

  • Consider the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding along with the mother’s clinical need for KANJINTI® treatment and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed child from KANJINTI® or from the underlying maternal condition

Pulmonary Toxicity

  • Trastuzumab products can result in serious and fatal pulmonary toxicity, which includes dyspnea, interstitial pneumonitis, pulmonary infiltrates, pleural effusions, noncardiogenic pulmonary edema, pulmonary insufficiency and hypoxia, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and pulmonary fibrosis. Such events can occur as sequelae of infusion reactions

  • Patients with symptomatic intrinsic lung disease or with extensive tumor involvement of the lungs, resulting in dyspnea at rest, appear to have more severe toxicity

  • Discontinue KANJINTI® in patients experiencing pulmonary toxicity

Exacerbation of Chemotherapy-Induced Neutropenia

  • In randomized, controlled clinical trials, the per-patient incidences of NCI-CTC Grade 3-4 neutropenia and of febrile neutropenia were higher in patients receiving trastuzumab in combination with myelosuppressive chemotherapy as compared to those who received chemotherapy alone. The incidence of septic death was similar among patients who received trastuzumab and those who did not

Most Common Adverse Reactions

  • The most common adverse reactions associated with trastuzumab products in breast cancer were fever, nausea, vomiting, infusion reactions, diarrhea, infections, increased cough, headache, fatigue, dyspnea, rash, neutropenia, anemia, and myalgia

  • The most common adverse reactions associated with trastuzumab products in metastatic gastric cancer were neutropenia, diarrhea, fatigue, anemia, stomatitis, weight loss, upper respiratory tract infections, fever, thrombocytopenia, mucosal inflammation, nasopharyngitis, and dysgeusia
