TRODELVY (Page 3 of 6)
6.2 Immunogenicity
As with all therapeutic proteins, there is potential for immunogenicity. The detection of antibody formation is highly dependent on the sensitivity and specificity of the assay. Additionally, the observed incidence of antibody (including neutralizing antibody) positivity in an assay may be influenced by several factors including assay methodology, sample handling, timing of sample collection, concomitant medications, and underlying disease. For these reasons, comparison of the incidence of antibodies in the studies described below with the incidence of antibodies in other studies or to other sacituzumab govitecan products may be misleading.
The analysis of immunogenicity of TRODELVY in serum samples from 106 patients with mTNBC was evaluated using an electrochemiluminescence (ECL)-based immunoassay to test for anti-sacituzumab govitecan-hziy antibodies. Detection of the anti-sacituzumab govitecan-hziy antibodies was done using a 3-tier approach: screen, confirm, and titer. Persistent anti-sacituzumab govitecan-hziy antibodies developed in 2% (2/106) of patients.
7 DRUG INTERACTIONS
7.1 Effect of Other Drugs on TRODELVY
UGT1A1 Inhibitors
Concomitant administration of TRODELVY with inhibitors of UGT1A1 may increase the incidence of adverse reactions due to potential increase in systemic exposure to SN-38 [see Warning and Precaution (5.5) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3, 12.5)]. Avoid administering UGT1A1 inhibitors with TRODELVY.
UGT1A1 Inducers
Exposure to SN-38 may be substantially reduced in patients concomitantly receiving UGT1A1 enzyme inducers [see Warning and Precaution (5.5) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3, 12.5)]. Avoid administering UGT1A1 inducers with TRODELVY.
8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS
8.1 Pregnancy
Risk Summary
Based on its mechanism of action, TRODELVY can cause teratogenicity and/or embryo-fetal lethality when administered to a pregnant woman. There are no available data in pregnant women to inform the drug-associated risk. TRODELVY contains a genotoxic component, SN-38, and is toxic to rapidly dividing cells [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.1) and Nonclinical Toxicology (13.1)]. Advise pregnant women and females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to a fetus.
The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2 – 4% and 15 – 20%, respectively.
Data
Animal data
There were no reproductive and developmental toxicology studies conducted with sacituzumab govitecan-hziy.
8.2 Lactation
Risk Summary
There is no information regarding the presence of sacituzumab govitecan-hziy or SN-38 in human milk, the effects on the breastfed child, or the effects on milk production. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in a breastfed child, advise women not to breastfeed during treatment and for 1 month after the last dose of TRODELVY.
8.3 Females and Males of Reproductive Potential
Pregnancy Testing
Verify the pregnancy status of females of reproductive potential prior to the initiation of TRODELVY.
Contraception
Females
TRODELVY can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1)]. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with TRODELVY and for 6 months after the last dose.
Males
Because of the potential for genotoxicity, advise male patients with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with TRODELVY and for 3 months after the last dose.
Infertility
Females
Based on findings in animals, TRODELVY may impair fertility in females of reproductive potential [see Nonclinical Toxicology (13.1)].
8.4 Pediatric Use
Safety and effectiveness of TRODELVY have not been established in pediatric patients.
8.5 Geriatric Use
Of the patients who received TRODELVY, 264/795 (33%) of all patients were ≥ 65 years old, and 11% were ≥ 75 years old. No overall differences in safety and effectiveness were observed between these patients and younger patients.
8.6 Hepatic Impairment
No adjustment to the starting dosage is required when administering TRODELVY to patients with mild hepatic impairment [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]).
The safety of TRODELVY in patients with moderate (total bilirubin > 1.5 to 3.0 × ULN) or severe (total bilirubin > 3.0 × upper limit of normal [ULN]) hepatic impairment has not been established. TRODELVY has not been tested in patients with AST or ALT > 3 ULN without liver metastases, or AST or ALT > 5 ULN with liver metastases. No recommendations can be made for the starting dosage in these patients.
10 OVERDOSAGE
In a clinical trial, planned doses of up to 18 mg/kg (approximately 1.8 times the maximum recommended dose of 10 mg/kg) of TRODELVY were administered. In these patients, a higher incidence of severe neutropenia was observed.
11 DESCRIPTION
Sacituzumab govitecan-hziy is a Trop-2 directed antibody and topoisomerase inhibitor conjugate, composed of the following three components:
- the humanized monoclonal antibody, hRS7 IgG1κ (also called sacituzumab), which binds to Trop-2 (the trophoblast cell-surface antigen-2);
- the drug SN-38, a topoisomerase inhibitor;
- a hydrolysable linker (called CL2A), which links the humanized monoclonal antibody to SN-38.
The recombinant monoclonal antibody is produced by mammalian (murine myeloma) cells, while the small molecule components SN-38 and CL2A are produced by chemical synthesis. Sacituzumab govitecan-hziy contains on average 7 to 8 molecules of SN-38 per antibody molecule. Sacituzumab govitecan-hziy has a molecular weight of approximately 160 kilodaltons. Sacituzumab govitecan-hziy has the following chemical structure.
TRODELVY (sacituzumab govitecan-hziy) for injection is a sterile, preservative-free, off-white to yellowish lyophilized powder for intravenous use in a 50 mL clear glass single-dose vial, with a rubber stopper and crimp-sealed with an aluminum flip-off cap.
Each single-dose vial of TRODELVY delivers 180 mg sacituzumab govitecan-hziy, 77.3 mg 2-(N-morpholino) ethane sulfonic acid (MES), 1.8 mg polysorbate 80 and 154 mg trehalose dihydrate. Reconstitution with 20 mL of 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP, results in a concentration of 10 mg/mL with a pH of 6.5.
12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
12.1 Mechanism of Action
Sacituzumab govitecan-hziy is a Trop-2-directed antibody-drug conjugate. Sacituzumab is a humanized antibody that recognizes Trop-2. The small molecule, SN-38, is a topoisomerase I inhibitor, which is covalently attached to the antibody by a linker. Pharmacology data suggest that sacituzumab govitecan-hziy binds to Trop-2-expressing cancer cells and is internalized with the subsequent release of SN-38 via hydrolysis of the linker. SN-38 interacts with topoisomerase I and prevents re-ligation of topoisomerase I-induced single strand breaks. The resulting DNA damage leads to apoptosis and cell death. Sacituzumab govitecan-hziy decreased tumor growth in mouse xenograft models of triple-negative breast cancer.
12.2 Pharmacodynamics
The TRODELVY exposure-response relationships and pharmacodynamic time course for efficacy have not been fully characterized.
Cardiac electrophysiology
The maximum mean change from baseline was 9.7 msec (the upper bound of the two-sided 90% confidence interval is 16.8 msec) at the recommended dose. A positive exposure-response relationship was observed between QTc increases and SN-38 concentrations.
