Reconstitution • Calculate the recommended dose based on the patient’s weight to determine the number of vials needed. • Remove the vial(s) from the refrigerator and allow the vial(s) to reach room temperature. • Reconstitute each 300 mg vial of ZIIHERA with 5.7 mL of Sterile Water for Injection by slowly directing the stream toward the inside of the wall of the vial, to obtain a final concentration of 50 mg/mL in an extractable volume of 6 mL. • Swirl the vial gently until completely dissolved. Do not shake or vigorously swirl. • Allow the reconstituted vial to settle to allow bubbles to dissipate. • Parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration, whenever solution and container permit. The reconstituted product should be a colorless to light yellow, clear to slightly opalescent solution with no visible particles. Discard the reconstituted vial if any discoloration or particulate matter is observed. • The product does not contain a preservative. Use the reconstituted ZIIHERA solution immediately or store the reconstituted ZIIHERA solution for up to 4 hours, either at room temperature (18°C to 24°C [64°F to 75°F]) or in a refrigerator (2°C to 8ºC [36°F to 46ºF]). Dilution • Withdraw the necessary volume for the calculated dose from each vial [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.3 )] . • Slowly add the necessary dose volume to an infusion bag containing 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection or 5% Dextrose Injection to prepare an infusion solution with a final concentration of the diluted solution between 0.4 mg/mL and 6 mg/mL. • Gently invert the infusion bag to mix. Do not shake. • The infusion solution must be a clear, colorless solution with no visible particles. Do not use if visible particles are observed or if the solution is discolored. • Discard any unused portion left in the vial(s). • Use the infusion solution immediately upon dilution or store the infusion solution at room temperature (18°C to 24°C [64°F to 75°F]) for up to 12 hours or in the refrigerator (2ºC to 8ºC [36ºF to 46ºF]) for up to 24 hours. o These time limits include the beginning of reconstitution through the duration of infusion. o If these specified times are exceeded, discontinue the current infusion bag and prepare a new bag which contains the remaining dosage of ZIIHERA to be infused. • Compatibility with intravenous administration materials and the infusion solution has been demonstrated in the following materials: o Intravenous (IV) Bag: Polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyolefin (PO), ethyl vinyl acetate (EVA), polypropylene (PP) and ethylene-propylene copolymer. o Infusion sets: Polyvinyl chloride/ bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (PVC/DEHP). Polyurethane (PUR), polyethylene-lined (PE-lined) acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS). o Inline filters: Polyethersulfone solution filter (PES), polyvinylidene fluoride air filter (PVDF). o Closed System Transfer devices: acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), acrylic c-polymer, polycarbonate (PC), polyisoprene (PI), polyester, polypropylene (PP) polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), silicone and stainless steel (SS). Administration • Administer ZIIHERA as an intravenous infusion with a 0.2 or 0.22 micron filter. • Do not administer as an intravenous push or bolus. • Do not co-administer ZIIHERA and other intravenous drugs through the same intravenous line.

Warnings & Precautions
• Left Ventricular Dysfunction: Assess left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) prior to initiation of ZIIHERA and at regular intervals during treatment. Withhold or permanently discontinue ZIIHERA based on severity. ( 2.4 , 5.2 ) • Infusion-Related Reactions (IRRs): Premedicate before each infusion of ZIIHERA. Interrupt the infusion, decrease the infusion rate, and/or permanently discontinue ZIIHERA based on severity. ( 2.4 , 5.3 ) • Diarrhea: ZIIHERA can cause severe diarrhea. Administer antidiarrheal treatment as clinically indicated. Withhold or permanently discontinue ZIIHERA based on severity. ( 2.4 , 5.4 ) 5.1 Embryo-Fetal Toxicity Based on the mechanism of action, ZIIHERA can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. There are no human or animal data on the use of ZIIHERA in pregnancy. In literature reports, use of a HER2-directed antibody during pregnancy resulted in cases of oligohydramnios and oligohydramnios sequence manifesting as pulmonary hypoplasia, skeletal abnormalities, and neonatal death. Verify the pregnancy status of females of reproductive potential prior to the initiation of ZIIHERA. Advise pregnant women and females of reproductive potential that exposure to ZIIHERA during pregnancy or within 4 months prior to conception can result in fetal harm. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception while receiving ZIIHERA and for 4 months following the last dose of ZIIHERA. 5.2 Left Ventricular Dysfunction ZIIHERA can cause decreases in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). LVEF declined by greater than 10% and decreased to less than 50% in 4.3% of 233 patients. LVD leading to permanent discontinuation of ZIIHERA was reported in 0.9% of patients. The median time to first occurrence of left ventricular dysfunction was 5.6 months (range: 1.6 to 18.7 months). Left ventricular dysfunction resolved in 70% of patients. Assess LVEF prior to initiation of ZIIHERA and at regular intervals during treatment. Withhold dose or permanently discontinue ZIIHERA based on severity of adverse reactions [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.4 )] . The safety of ZIIHERA has not been established in patients with a baseline ejection fraction that is below 50% [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.4 )] . 5.3 Infusion-Related Reactions ZIIHERA can cause infusion-related reactions (IRRs). An IRR was reported in 31% of 233 patients treated with ZIIHERA as a single agent in clinical studies, including Grade 3 (0.4%), and Grade 2 (25%). IRRs leading to permanent discontinuation of ZIIHERA were reported in 0.4% of patients. IRRs occurred on the first day of dosing in 28% of patients; 97% of IRRs resolved within one day. Prior to each dose of ZIIHERA, administer premedications to prevent potential IRRs [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.2 )] . Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of IRR during ZIIHERA administration and as clinically indicated after completion of infusion. Have medications and emergency equipment to treat IRRs available for immediate use. If an IRR occurs, slow, or stop the infusion, and administer appropriate medical management. Monitor patients until complete resolution of signs and symptoms before resuming. Permanently discontinue ZIIHERA in patients with recurrent severe or life-threatening infusion-related reactions [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.4 )] . 5.4 Diarrhea ZIIHERA can cause severe diarrhea [see Adverse Reactions ( 6.1 )] . Diarrhea was reported in 48% of 233 patients treated in clinical studies, including Grade 3 (6%) and Grade 2 (17%). If diarrhea occurs, administer antidiarrheal treatment as clinically indicated. Perform diagnostic tests as clinically indicated to exclude other causes of diarrhea. Withhold or permanently discontinue ZIIHERA based on severity [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.4 )] .

The pooled safety population of ZIIHERA described in WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS reflect exposure in 233 patients administered ZIIHERA 20 mg/kg intravenously as a single agent in two single-arm, open-label studies (ZWI‑ZW25‑101 and HERIZON‑BTC‑01), which enrolled 109 patients with biliary tract cancer, and 124 patients with other cancers. Among 233 patients who received ZIIHERA, 39% were exposed for 6 months or longer, and 17% were exposed for greater than one year. Biliary Tract Cancer The safety of ZIIHERA was evaluated in 80 patients with previously treated, unresectable or metastatic HER2-positive biliary tract cancer who received at least one prior gemcitabine-containing chemotherapy regimen in HERIZON‑BTC‑01 [See Clinical Studies ( 14 )]. Patients received ZIIHERA 20 mg/kg by IV infusion once every 2 weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The median duration of exposure to ZIIHERA was 5.6 months (range: 0.5 to 27.2 months). Serious adverse reactions occurred in 53% of patients who received ZIIHERA. Serious adverse reactions in > 2% of patients included biliary obstruction (15%), biliary tract infection (8%), sepsis (8%), pneumonia (5%), diarrhea (3.8%), gastric obstruction (3.8%), and fatigue (2.5%). A fatal adverse reaction of hepatic failure occurred in one patient who received ZIIHERA. Permanent discontinuation due to an adverse reaction occurred in 2.5% of patients who received ZIIHERA. Adverse reactions which resulted in permanent discontinuation in ≥ 1% of patients who received ZIIHERA included decreased ejection fraction and pneumonitis. Dosage interruptions due to an adverse reaction, excluding temporary interruptions of ZIIHERA infusions due to infusion-related reactions, occurred in 41% of patients who received ZIIHERA. The most frequent adverse reactions (> 2% of patients) that required dosage interruption were diarrhea, increased alanine aminotransferase, increased aspartate aminotransferase, decreased ejection fraction, pneumonia, cholangitis, fatigue, biliary obstruction, abdominal pain, increased blood creatinine, and decreased potassium. Dosage reductions due to an adverse reaction occurred in 4% of patients who received ZIIHERA. Adverse reactions requiring dosage reductions in > 1% of patients were diarrhea, nausea, and decreased weight. The most common adverse reactions in patients receiving ZIIHERA (≥ 20%) were diarrhea, infusion-related reaction, abdominal pain, and fatigue. Table 3 summarizes the adverse reactions that occurred in HERIZON‑BTC‑01.
