NYPOZI txid FILGRASTIM TXID TANVEX BIOPHARMA USA, INC. FDA Approved Filgrastim-txid, a leukocyte growth factor, is a 175 amino acid human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) manufactured by recombinant DNA technology. Filgrastim-txid is produced by Escherichia coli ( E. coli ) bacteria into which has been inserted the human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor gene. Filgrastim-txid has a molecular weight of 18‚800 daltons. The protein has an amino acid sequence that is identical to the natural sequence predicted from human DNA sequence analysis‚ except for the addition of an N-terminal methionine necessary for expression in E. coli . Because filgrastim-txid is produced in E. coli ‚ the product is non-glycosylated and thus differs from G-CSF isolated from a human cell. NYPOZI (filgrastim-txid) injection is a sterile‚ clear‚ colorless to slightly yellowish‚ preservative-free liquid containing filgrastim-txid at a specific activity of 1.3 ± 0.3 × 10 8 IU/mg (as measured by a cell mitogenesis assay). The product is available in single-dose prefilled syringes for subcutaneous or intravenous use. The single-dose prefilled syringes contain either 300 mcg/0.5 mL or 480 mcg/0.8 mL of filgrastim-txid.

Indications & Usage

NYPOZI is a leukocyte growth factor indicated to: Decrease the incidence of infection, as manifested by febrile neutropenia, in patients with nonmyeloid malignancies receiving myelosuppressive anti-cancer drugs associated with a significant incidence of severe neutropenia with fever ( 1.1 ) Reduce the time to neutrophil recovery and the duration of fever, following induction or consolidation chemotherapy treatment of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) ( 1.2 ) Reduce the duration of neutropenia and neutropenia-related clinical sequelae, e.g., febrile neutropenia, in patients with nonmyeloid malignancies undergoing myeloablative chemotherapy followed by bone marrow transplantation (BMT) ( 1.3 ) Mobilize autologous hematopoietic progenitor cells into the peripheral blood for collection by leukapheresis ( 1.4 ) Reduce the incidence and duration of sequelae of severe neutropenia (e.g.‚ fever‚ infections‚ oropharyngeal ulcers) in symptomatic patients with congenital neutropenia‚ cyclic neutropenia‚ or idiopathic neutropenia ( 1.5 ) Increase survival in patients acutely exposed to myelosuppressive doses of radiation (Hematopoietic Syndrome of Acute Radiation Syndrome) ( 1.6 ) 1.1 Patients with Cancer Receiving Myelosuppressive Chemotherapy NYPOZI is indicated to decrease the incidence of infection‚ as manifested by febrile neutropenia‚ in patients with nonmyeloid malignancies receiving myelosuppressive anti-cancer drugs associated with a significant incidence of severe neutropenia with fever [see Clinical Studies (14.1) ] . 1.2 Patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia Receiving Induction or Consolidation Chemotherapy NYPOZI is indicated for reducing the time to neutrophil recovery and the duration of fever, following induction or consolidation chemotherapy treatment of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) [see Clinical Studies (14.2) ] . 1.3 Patients with Cancer Undergoing Bone Marrow Transplantation NYPOZI is indicated to reduce the duration of neutropenia and neutropenia-related clinical sequelae‚ e.g.‚ febrile neutropenia, in patients with nonmyeloid malignancies undergoing myeloablative chemotherapy followed by bone marrow transplantation [see Clinical Studies (14.3) ] . 1.4 Patients Undergoing Autologous Peripheral Blood Progenitor Cell Collection and Therapy NYPOZI is indicated for the mobilization of autologous hematopoietic progenitor cells into the peripheral blood for collection by leukapheresis [see Clinical Studies (14.4) ] . 1.5 Patients with Severe Chronic Neutropenia NYPOZI is indicated for chronic administration to reduce the incidence and duration of sequelae of neutropenia (e.g.‚ fever‚ infections‚ oropharyngeal ulcers) in symptomatic patients with congenital neutropenia‚ cyclic neutropenia‚ or idiopathic neutropenia [see Clinical Studies (14.5) ] . 1.6 Patients Acutely Exposed to Myelosuppressive Doses of Radiation (Hematopoietic Syndrome of Acute Radiation Syndrome) NYPOZI is indicated to increase survival in patients acutely exposed to myelosuppressive doses of radiation [see Clinical Studies (14.6) ] .

Dosage & Administration

Patients with cancer receiving myelosuppressive chemotherapy or induction and/or consolidation chemotherapy for AML Recommended starting dose is 5 mcg/kg/day by subcutaneous injection, short intravenous infusion (15 to 30 minutes), or continuous intravenous infusion. See Full Prescribing Information for recommended dosage adjustments and timing of administration ( 2.1 ) Patients with cancer undergoing bone marrow transplantation: 10 mcg/kg/day given as an intravenous infusion no longer than 24 hours. See Full Prescribing Information for recommended dosage adjustments and timing of administration ( 2.2 ) Patients undergoing autologous peripheral blood progenitor cell collection and therapy 10 mcg/kg/day subcutaneous injection ( 2.3 ) Administer for at least 4 days before first leukapheresis procedure and continue until last leukapheresis ( 2.3 ) Patients with congenital neutropenia Recommended starting dose is 6 mcg/kg subcutaneous injection twice daily ( 2.4 ) Patients with cyclic or idiopathic neutropenia Recommended starting dose is 5 mcg/kg subcutaneous injection daily ( 2.4 ) Patients acutely exposed to myelosuppressive doses of radiation 10 mcg/kg/day subcutaneous injection ( 2.5 ) Direct administration of less than 0.3 mL (180 mcg) is not recommended due to potential for dosing errors ( 2.6 ) 2.1 Dosage in Patients with Cancer Receiving Myelosuppressive Chemotherapy or Induction and/or Consolidation Chemotherapy for AML The recommended starting dosage of NYPOZI is 5 mcg/kg/day‚ administered as a single daily injection by subcutaneous injection, by short intravenous infusion (15 to 30 minutes), or by continuous intravenous infusion. Obtain a complete blood count (CBC) and platelet count before instituting NYPOZI therapy and monitor twice weekly during therapy. Consider dose escalation in increments of 5 mcg/kg for each chemotherapy cycle‚ according to the duration and severity of the absolute neutrophil count (ANC) nadir. Recommend stopping NYPOZI if the ANC increases beyond 10‚000/mm 3 [see Warnings and Precautions (5.10) ]. Administer NYPOZI at least 24 hours after cytotoxic chemotherapy. Do not administer NYPOZI within the 24-hour period prior to chemotherapy [see Warnings and Precautions (5.13) ] . A transient increase in neutrophil count is typically seen 1 to 2 days after initiation of filgrastim therapy. Therefore, to ensure a sustained therapeutic response‚ administer NYPOZI daily for up to 2 weeks or until the ANC has reached 10‚000/mm 3 following the expected chemotherapy-induced neutrophil nadir. The duration of NYPOZI therapy needed to attenuate chemotherapy-induced neutropenia may be dependent on the myelosuppressive potential of the chemotherapy regimen employed. 2.2 Dosage in Patients with Cancer Undergoing Bone Marrow Transplantation The recommended dosage of NYPOZI following bone marrow transplantation (BMT) is 10 mcg/kg/day given as an intravenous infusion no longer than 24 hours. Administer the first dose of NYPOZI at least 24 hours after cytotoxic chemotherapy and at least 24 hours after bone marrow infusion. Monitor CBCs and platelet counts frequently following marrow transplantation. During the period of neutrophil recovery‚ titrate the daily dosage of NYPOZI against the neutrophil response (see Table 1 ). Table 1. Recommended Dosage Adjustments During Neutrophil Recovery in Patients with Cancer Following BMT Absolute Neutrophil Count NYPOZI Dosage Adjustment When ANC greater than 1,000/mm 3 for 3 consecutive days Reduce to 5 mcg/kg/day If ANC decreases to less than 1,000/mm 3 at any time during the 5 mcg/kg/day administration‚ increase NYPOZI to 10 mcg/kg/day‚ and then follow the above steps. Then, if ANC remains greater than 1,000/ mm 3 for 3 more consecutive days Discontinue NYPOZI Then, if ANC decreases to less than 1,000/mm 3 Resume at 5 mcg/kg/day 2.3 Dosage in Patients Undergoing Autologous Peripheral Blood Progenitor Cell Collection and Therapy The recommended dosage of NYPOZI for the mobilization of autologous peripheral blood progenitor cells (PBPC) is 10 mcg/kg/day given by subcutaneous injection. Administer NYPOZI for at least 4 days before the first leukapheresis procedure and continue until the last leukapheresis. Although the optimal duration of NYPOZI administration and leukapheresis schedule have not been established‚ administration of filgrastim for 6 to 7 days with leukaphereses on days 5‚ 6‚ and 7 was found to be safe and effective [see Clinical Studies (14.4) ] . Monitor neutrophil counts after 4 days of NYPOZI and discontinue NYPOZI if the white blood cell (WBC) count rises to greater than 100‚000/mm 3 . 2.4 Dosage in Patients with Severe Chronic Neutropenia Prior to starting NYPOZI in patients with suspected chronic neutropenia, confirm the diagnosis of severe chronic neutropenia (SCN) by evaluating serial CBCs with differential and platelet counts‚ and evaluating bone marrow morphology and karyotype. The use of NYPOZI prior to confirmation of a correct diagnosis of SCN may impair diagnostic efforts and may thus impair or delay evaluation and treatment of an underlying condition‚ other than SCN‚ causing the neutropenia. The recommended starting dosage in patients with Congenital Neutropenia is 6 mcg/kg as a twice daily subcutaneous injection and the recommended starting dosage in patients with Idiopathic or Cyclic Neutropenia is 5 mcg/kg as a single daily subcutaneous injection. Dosage Adjustments in Patients with Severe Chronic Neutropenia Chronic daily administration is required to maintain clinical benefit. Individualize the dosage based on the patient's clinical course as well as ANC. In the SCN postmarketing surveillance study, the reported median daily doses of filgrastim were: 6 mcg/kg (congenital neutropenia), 2.1 mcg/kg (cyclic neutropenia), and 1.2 mcg/kg (idiopathic neutropenia). In rare instances, patients with congenital neutropenia have required doses of filgrastim greater than or equal to 100 mcg/kg/day. Monitor CBCs for Dosage Adjustments During the initial 4 weeks of NYPOZI therapy and during the 2 weeks following any dosage adjustment‚ monitor CBCs with differential and platelet counts. Once a patient is clinically stable‚ monitor CBCs with differential and platelet counts monthly during the first year of treatment. Thereafter, if the patient is clinically stable, less frequent routine monitoring is recommended. 2.5 Dosage in Patients Acutely Exposed to Myelosuppressive Doses of Radiation (Hematopoietic Syndrome of Acute Radiation Syndrome) The recommended dose of NYPOZI is 10 mcg/kg as a single daily subcutaneous injection for patients exposed to myelosuppressive doses of radiation. Administer NYPOZI as soon as possible after suspected or confirmed exposure to radiation doses greater than 2 gray (Gy). Estimate a patient's absorbed radiation dose (i.e., level of radiation exposure) based on information from public health authorities, biodosimetry if available, or clinical findings such as time to onset of vomiting or lymphocyte depletion kinetics. Obtain a baseline CBC and then serial CBCs approximately every third day until the ANC remains greater than 1,000/mm 3 for 3 consecutive CBCs. Do not delay administration of NYPOZI if a CBC is not readily available. Continue administration of NYPOZI until the ANC remains greater than 1,000/mm 3 for 3 consecutive CBCs or exceeds 10,000/mm 3 after a radiation-induced nadir. 2.6 Important Administration Instructions NYPOZI is supplied in single-dose prefilled syringes (for subcutaneous or intravenous use) [see Dosage Forms and Strengths (3) ] . Prior to use‚ remove the prefilled syringe from the refrigerator and allow NYPOZI to reach room temperature for a minimum of 30 minutes and a maximum of 24 hours. Discard any prefilled syringe left at room temperature for greater than 24 hours. Parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration, whenever solution and container permit. Do not administer NYPOZI if particulates or discoloration are observed. Discard unused portion of NYPOZI in prefilled syringes. Do not save unused drug for later administration. Subcutaneous Injection Inject NYPOZI subcutaneously in the outer area of upper arms, abdomen, thighs, or upper outer areas of the buttock. If patients or caregivers are to administer NYPOZI, instruct them in appropriate injection technique and ask them to follow the subcutaneous injection procedures in the Instructions for Use for the prefilled syringe [see Patient Counseling Information (17) ]. Training by a healthcare professional should aim to demonstrate to those patients and caregivers how to measure the dose using the prefilled syringe, and the focus should be on ensuring that a patient or caregiver can successfully perform all of the steps in the Instructions for Use for the NYPOZI prefilled syringe with BD UltraSafe Passive™ Needle Guard. If a patient or caregiver is not able to demonstrate that they can measure the dose and administer the product successfully, you should consider whether the patient is an appropriate candidate for self-administration of NYPOZI . NYPOZI prefilled syringe with BD UltraSafe Passive™ Needle Guard is not designed to allow for direct administration of doses of less than 0.3 mL (180 mcg). The spring-mechanism of the needle guard apparatus affixed to the prefilled syringe interferes with the visibility of the graduation markings on the syringe barrel corresponding to 0.1 mL and 0.2 mL. The visibility of these markings is necessary to accurately measure doses of NYPOZI less than 0.3 mL (180 mcg) for direct administration to patients. Thus, the direct administration to patients requiring doses of less than 0.3 mL (180 mcg) is not recommended due to the potential for dosing errors. Dilution If required for intravenous administration, NYPOZI may be diluted in 5% Dextrose Injection to a concentration of 15 mcg/mL . NYPOZI diluted to 15 mcg/mL should be protected from adsorption to plastic materials by the addition of Albumin (Human) to a final concentration of 2 mg/mL. When diluted in 5% Dextrose plus Albumin (Human), NYPOZI is compatible with polyvinylchloride and polyolefin. Do not dilute with Sodium Chloride Injection at any time, because the product may precipitate. Diluted NYPOZI solution can be stored at room temperature for up to 14 hours. This 14 hour time period includes the time during room temperature storage of the infusion solution and the duration of the infusion. If the patient or caregiver misses a dose of NYPOZI, instruct them to contact their healthcare provider.

Warnings & Precautions
Fatal splenic rupture: Evaluate patients who report left upper abdominal or shoulder pain for an enlarged spleen or splenic rupture. ( 5.1 ) Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS): Evaluate patients who develop fever and lung infiltrates or respiratory distress for ARDS. Discontinue NYPOZI in patients with ARDS. ( 5.2 ) Serious allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis: Permanently discontinue NYPOZI in patients with serious allergic reactions. ( 5.3 ) Fatal sickle cell crises: Discontinue NYPOZI if sickle cell crisis occurs. ( 5.4 ) Glomerulonephritis: Evaluate and consider dose-reduction or interruption of NYPOZI if causality is likely. ( 5.5 ) Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) and Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML): Monitor patients with breast and lung cancer using NYPOZI in conjunction with chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy for signs and symptoms of MDS/AML. ( 5.8 ) Thrombocytopenia: Monitor platelet counts. ( 5.9 ) 5.1 Splenic Rupture Splenic rupture, including fatal cases, has been reported following the administration of filgrastim products. Evaluate patients who report left upper abdominal or shoulder pain for an enlarged spleen or splenic rupture. 5.2 Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) has been reported in patients receiving filgrastim products. Evaluate patients who develop fever and lung infiltrates or respiratory distress for ARDS. Discontinue NYPOZI in patients with ARDS. 5.3 Serious Allergic Reactions Serious allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis, have been reported in patients receiving filgrastim products. The majority of reported events occurred upon initial exposure. Provide symptomatic treatment for allergic reactions. Allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis, in patients receiving filgrastim products can recur within days after the discontinuation of initial anti-allergic treatment. Permanently discontinue NYPOZI in patients with serious allergic reactions. NYPOZI is contraindicated in patients with a history of serious allergic reactions to human granulocyte colony-stimulating factors such as filgrastim products or pegfilgrastim products. 5.4 Sickle Cell Disorders Severe and sometimes fatal sickle cell crises can occur, in patients with sickle cell disorders receiving filgrastim products. Discontinue NYPOZI if sickle cell crisis occurs. 5.5 Glomerulonephritis Glomerulonephritis has occurred in patients receiving filgrastim products. The diagnoses were based upon azotemia, hematuria (microscopic and macroscopic), proteinuria, and renal biopsy. Generally, events of glomerulonephritis resolved after dose-reduction or discontinuation of filgrastim products. If glomerulonephritis is suspected, evaluate for cause. If causality is likely, consider dose-reduction or interruption of NYPOZI. 5.6 Alveolar Hemorrhage and Hemoptysis Alveolar hemorrhage manifesting as pulmonary infiltrates and hemoptysis requiring hospitalization have been reported in healthy donors treated with filgrastim products undergoing peripheral blood progenitor cell (PBPC) collection mobilization. Hemoptysis resolved with discontinuation of filgrastim products. The use of NYPOZI for PBPC mobilization in healthy donors is not an approved indication. 5.7 Capillary Leak Syndrome Capillary leak syndrome (CLS) has been reported after G-CSF administration, including filgrastim products, and is characterized by hypotension, hypoalbuminemia, edema, and hemoconcentration. Episodes vary in frequency, severity and may be life-threatening if treatment is delayed. Patients who develop symptoms of capillary leak syndrome should be closely monitored and receive standard symptomatic treatment, which may include a need for intensive care. 5.8 Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) and Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) Patients with Severe Chronic Neutropenia Confirm the diagnosis of SCN before initiating NYPOZI therapy. MDS and AML have been reported to occur in the natural history of congenital neutropenia without cytokine therapy. Cytogenetic abnormalities, transformation to MDS, and AML have also been observed in patients treated with filgrastim products for SCN. Based on available data including a postmarketing surveillance study, the risk of developing MDS and AML appears to be confined to the subset of patients with congenital neutropenia. Abnormal cytogenetics and MDS have been associated with the eventual development of myeloid leukemia. The effect of filgrastim products on the development of abnormal cytogenetics and the effect of continued filgrastim products administration in patients with abnormal cytogenetics or MDS are unknown. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of MDS/AML in these settings. If a patient with SCN develops abnormal cytogenetics or myelodysplasia‚ the risks and benefits of continuing NYPOZI should be carefully considered. Patients with Breast and Lung Cancer MDS and AML have been associated with the use of filgrastim products in conjunction with chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy in patients with breast and lung cancer. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of MDS/AML in these settings. 5.9 Thrombocytopenia Thrombocytopenia has been reported in patients receiving filgrastim products. Monitor platelet counts. 5.10 Leukocytosis Patients with Cancer Receiving Myelosuppressive Chemotherapy White blood cell counts of 100‚000/mm 3 or greater were observed in approximately 2% of patients receiving filgrastim at dosages above 5 mcg/kg/day. In patients with cancer receiving NYPOZI as an adjunct to myelosuppressive chemotherapy‚ to avoid the potential risks of excessive leukocytosis‚ it is recommended that NYPOZI therapy be discontinued if the ANC surpasses 10‚000/mm 3 after the chemotherapy-induced ANC nadir has occurred. Monitor CBCs at least twice weekly during therapy. Dosages of NYPOZI that increase the ANC beyond 10‚000/mm 3 may not result in any additional clinical benefit. In patients with cancer receiving myelosuppressive chemotherapy‚ discontinuation of filgrastim therapy usually resulted in a 50% decrease in circulating neutrophils within 1 to 2 days‚ with a return to pretreatment levels in 1 to 7 days. Peripheral Blood Progenitor Cell Collection and Therapy During the period of administration of NYPOZI for PBPC mobilization in patients with cancer, discontinue NYPOZI if the leukocyte count rises to > 100,000/mm 3 . 5.11 Cutaneous Vasculitis Cutaneous vasculitis has been reported in patients treated with filgrastim products. In most cases‚ the severity of cutaneous vasculitis was moderate or severe. Most of the reports involved patients with SCN receiving long-term filgrastim therapy. Hold NYPOZI therapy in patients with cutaneous vasculitis. NYPOZI may be started at a reduced dose when the symptoms resolve and the ANC has decreased. 5.12 Potential Effect on Malignant Cells NYPOZI is a growth factor that primarily stimulates neutrophils. The granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) receptor through which NYPOZI acts has also been found on tumor cell lines. The possibility that NYPOZI acts as a growth factor for any tumor type cannot be excluded. The safety of filgrastim products in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and myelodysplasia has not been established. When NYPOZI is used to mobilize PBPC‚ tumor cells may be released from the marrow and subsequently collected in the leukapheresis product. The effect of reinfusion of tumor cells has not been well studied‚ and the limited data available are inconclusive. 5.13 Simultaneous Use with Chemotherapy and Radiation Therapy Not Recommended The safety and efficacy of NYPOZI given simultaneously with cytotoxic chemotherapy have not been established. Because of the potential sensitivity of rapidly dividing myeloid cells to cytotoxic chemotherapy‚ do not use NYPOZI in the period 24 hours before through 24 hours after the administration of cytotoxic chemotherapy [see Dosage and Administration (2.2) ] . The safety and efficacy of NYPOZI have not been evaluated in patients receiving concurrent radiation therapy. Avoid the simultaneous use of NYPOZI with chemotherapy and radiation therapy. 5.14 Nuclear Imaging Increased hematopoietic activity of the bone marrow in response to growth factor therapy has been associated with transient positive bone-imaging changes. This should be considered when interpreting bone-imaging results. 5.15 Aortitis Aortitis has been reported in patients receiving filgrastim products. It may occur as early as the first week after start of therapy. Manifestations may include generalized signs and symptoms such as fever, abdominal pain, malaise, back pain, and increased inflammatory markers (e.g., c-reactive protein and white blood cell count). Consider aortitis in patients who develop these signs and symptoms without known etiology. Discontinue NYPOZI if aortitis is suspected.
Contraindications

NYPOZI is contraindicated in patients with a history of serious allergic reactions to human granulocyte colony-stimulating factors such as filgrastim products or pegfilgrastim products [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ]. Patients with a history of serious allergic reactions to human granulocyte colony-stimulating factors such as filgrastim products or pegfilgrastim products ( 4 )

Adverse Reactions in Patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia Adverse reaction data below are from a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in patients with AML (Study 4) who received an induction chemotherapy regimen of intravenous daunorubicin days 1, 2, and 3; cytosine arabinoside days 1 to 7; and etoposide days 1 to 5 and up to 3 additional courses of therapy (induction 2, and consolidation 1, 2) of intravenous daunorubicin, cytosine arabinoside, and etoposide. The safety population included 518 patients randomized to receive either 5 mcg/kg/day filgrastim (n = 257) or placebo (n = 261). The median age was 54 (range 16 to 89) years and 54% were male. Adverse reactions with ≥ 2% higher incidence in filgrastim patients compared to placebo included epistaxis, back pain, pain in extremity, erythema, and rash maculo-papular. Adverse events with ≥ 2% higher incidence in filgrastim patients compared to placebo and associated with the sequelae of the underlying malignancy or cytotoxic chemotherapy included diarrhea, constipation, and transfusion reaction. Adverse Reactions in Patients with Cancer Undergoing Bone Marrow Transplantation The following adverse reaction data are from one randomized, no treatment-controlled study in patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia or lymphoblastic lymphoma receiving high-dose chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide or cytarabine, and melphalan) and total body irradiation (Study 5) and one randomized, no treatment-controlled study in patients with Hodgkin's disease (HD) and NHL undergoing high-dose chemotherapy and autologous bone marrow transplantation (Study 6). Patients receiving autologous bone marrow transplantation only were included in the analysis. A total of 100 patients received either 30 mcg/kg/day as a 4-hour infusion (Study 5) or 10 mcg/kg/day or 30 mcg/kg/day as a 24-hour infusion (Study 6) filgrastim (n = 72), no treatment control or placebo (n = 28). The median age was 30 (range 15 to 57) years, 57% were male. Adverse reactions with ≥ 5% higher incidence in filgrastim patients compared to patients receiving no filgrastim included rash and hypersensitivity. Adverse reactions in patients receiving intensive chemotherapy followed by autologous BMT with ≥ 5% higher incidence in filgrastim patients compared to patients receiving no filgrastim included thrombocytopenia, anemia, hypertension, sepsis, bronchitis, and insomnia. Adverse Reactions in Patients with Cancer Undergoing Autologous Peripheral Blood Progenitor Cell Collection The adverse reaction data in Table 3 are from a series of 7 trials in patients with cancer undergoing mobilization of autologous peripheral blood progenitor cells for collection by leukapheresis. Patients (n = 166) in all these trials underwent a similar mobilization/collection regimen: filgrastim was administered for 6 to 8 days‚ in most cases the apheresis procedure occurred on days 5‚ 6, and 7. The dosage of filgrastim ranged between 5 to 30 mcg/kg/day and was administered subcutaneously by injection or continuous infusion. The median age was 39 (range 15 to 67) years, and 48% were male. Table 3. Adverse Reactions in Patients with Cancer Undergoing Autologous PBPC in the Mobilization Phase (≥ 5% Incidence in Filgrastim Patients) System Organ Class Preferred Term Mobilization Phase (N = 166) Musculoskeletal and connective tissue disorders Bone pain 30% General disorders and administration site conditions Pyrexia 16% Investigations Blood alkaline phosphatase increased 11% Nervous system disorders Headache 10% Adverse Reactions in Patients with Severe Chronic Neutropenia The following adverse reaction data were identified in a randomized, controlled study in patients with SCN receiving filgrastim (Study 7). 123 patients were randomized to a 4-month observation period followed by subcutaneous filgrastim treatment or immediate subcutaneous filgrastim treatment. The median age was 12 years (range 7 months to 76 years) and 46% were male. The dosage of filgrastim was determined by the category of neutropenia. Initial dosage of filgrastim: Idiopathic neutropenia: 3.6 mcg/kg/day Cyclic neutropenia: 6 mcg/kg/day Congenital neutropenia: 6 mcg/kg/day divided 2 times per day The dosage was increased incrementally to 12 mcg/kg/day divided 2 times per day if there was no response. Adverse reactions with ≥ 5% higher incidence in filgrastim patients compared to patients receiving no filgrastim included arthralgia, bone pain, back pain, muscle spasms, musculoskeletal pain, pain in extremity, splenomegaly, anemia, upper respiratory tract infection, and urinary tract infection (upper respiratory tract infection and urinary tract infection were higher in the filgrastim arm, total infection related events were lower in filgrastim treated patients), epistaxis, chest pain, diarrhea, hypoesthesia, and alopecia. 6.2 Postmarketing Experience The following adverse reactions have been identified during post-approval use of filgrastim products. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure. splenic rupture and splenomegaly (enlarged spleen) [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] acute respiratory distress syndrome [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] anaphylaxis [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ] sickle cell disorders [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4) ] glomerulonephritis [see Warnings and Precautions (5.5) ] alveolar hemorrhage and hemoptysis [see Warnings and Precautions (5.6) ] capillary leak syndrome [see Warnings and Precautions (5.7) ] leukocytosis [see Warnings and Precautions (5.10) ] cutaneous vasculitis [see Warnings and Precautions (5.11) ] Sweet's syndrome (acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis) decreased bone density and osteoporosis in pediatric patients receiving chronic treatment with filgrastim products myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in patients with breast and lung cancer receiving chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy [see Warnings and Precautions (5.8) ] aortitis [see Warnings and Precautions (5.15) ] extramedullary hematopoiesis
