RUBY-FILL

11.1 Chemical Characteristics RUBY-FILL Rubidium Rb 82 Generator contains accelerator-produced Sr 82 adsorbed on stannic oxide in a lead-shielded column and provides a means for obtaining sterile non-pyrogenic solutions of rubidium Rb 82 chloride injection. The chemical form of Rb 82 is 82 RbCl. The amount (mCi) of Rb 82 obtained in each elution will depend on the potency of the generator. When used with the RUBY Rubidium Elution System, the generator provides ± 10% accuracy for rubidium Rb 82 chloride doses between 370 to 2220 MBq (10 to 60 mCi). When eluted at a rate of 15 to 30 mL/minute, each generator eluate at the end of elution should not contain more than 0.02 mcCi (0.74 kBq) of Sr 82 and not more than 0.2 mcCi (7.4 kBq) of Sr 85 per mCi of rubidium Rb 82 chloride injection, and not more than 1 mcg of tin per mL of eluate. 11.2 Physical Characteristics Rb 82 decays by positron emission and associated gamma emission with a physical half-life of 75 seconds. Table 5 shows the annihilation photons released following positron emission which are useful for detection and imaging studies. The decay modes of Rb 82 are: 95.5% by positron emission, resulting in the production of annihilation radiation, i.e., two 511 keV gamma rays; and 4.5% by electron capture, resulting in the emission of “prompt” gamma rays of predominantly 776.5 keV. Both decay modes lead directly to the formation of stable Kr 82. TABLE 5 Principal Radiation Emission Data Radiation Mean Percent Per Disintegration Mean Energy (keV) Annihilation photons (2) 191.01 511 (each) Gamma rays 13 to 15 776.5 The specific gamma ray constant for Rb 82 is 6.33 R cm 2 / mCi h (1.23 × 10 -12 C m 2 / kg MBq s). The first half-value layer is 0.53 cm of lead (Pb). Table 6 shows a range of values for the relative attenuation of the radiation emitted by this radionuclide that results from interposition of various thicknesses of Pb. For example, the use of a 6.15 cm thickness of Pb will attenuate the radiation emitted by a factor of about 1,000.

(1)

Use RUBY-FILL with a specific Elution System. ( 2.4) • Use only additive-free 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection USP to elute the generator. ( 2.5 ) • The recommended weight-based dose of rubidium Rb 82 is between 10 to 30 Megabecquerels (MBq)/kg [0.27 to 0.81 millicuries (mCi)/kg]. ( 2.2 ) • Do not exceed a single dose of 2220 MBq (60 mCi) per rest or stress component of a procedure. (2.2) • Administer the single dose at a rate of 15 to 30 mL/minute through a catheter inserted into a large peripheral vein; do not exceed an infusion volume of 60 mL. ( 2.2 ) • Use the lowest dose necessary to obtain adequate cardiac visualization and individualize the dose depending on multiple factors, including, patient weight, imaging equipment and acquisition type used to perform the procedure. ( 2.2 ) • Start imaging acquisition 60 to 90 seconds after completion of the infusion; if a longer circulation time is anticipated, wait for 120 seconds. Acquisition may be started immediately post-injection if dynamic imaging is needed. Image acquisition is typically 3 to 7 minutes long. ( 2.3 ) • To obtain rest and stress images, wait 10 minutes after completion of the rest image acquisition then administer the pharmacologic stress agent in accordance with its prescribing information. After administration of the pharmacologic stress agent, infuse the second dose of Rb 82, at the time interval according to the prescribing information of the pharmacological stress agent and complete the stress image acquisition. ( 2.3 ) 2.1 Radiation Safety - Drug Handling Rubidium Rb 82 is a radioactive drug and should be handled with appropriate safety measures to minimize radiation exposure during administration [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.3 ] ). Use only additive-free 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection USP to elute the generator [ see Boxed Warning, Contraindications (4) , Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 ) ]. Use waterproof gloves and effective shielding when handling rubidium Rb 82 chloride injection and the RUBY Rubidium Elution System. Use aseptic techniques in all drug handling. Visually inspect the drug for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration whenever solution and container permit. Do not administer eluate from the generator if there is any evidence of foreign matter. 2.2 Recommended Dose and Administration Instructions The recommended weight-based dose of rubidium Rb 82 chloride to be administered per rest or stress component of a PET myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) procedure is between 10 to 30 Megabecquerels (MBq)/kg [0.27 to 0.81 millicuries (mCi)/kg]. Do not exceed a single dose of 2220 MBq (60 mCi). Use the lowest dose necessary to obtain adequate cardiac visualization and individualize the weight-based dose depending on multiple factors, including, patient weight, imaging equipment and acquisition type used to perform the procedure. For example, 3D imaging acquisition may require doses at the lower end of the recommended range compared to 2D imaging. Administer the single dose at a rate of 15 to 30 mL/minute through a catheter inserted into a large peripheral vein; do not exceed an infusion volume of 60 mL. Instruct patients to void as soon as a study is completed and as often as possible thereafter for at least one hour. The maximum available activity (delivery limit) will decrease as the generator ages [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.8 )] . 2.3 Image Acquisition Guidelines For Rest Imaging: Administer a single (“rest”) rubidium Rb 82 chloride dose; Start imaging 60 to 90 seconds after completion of the infusion of the rest dose and acquire images for 3 to 7 minutes. For Stress Imaging: Begin the study 10 minutes after completion of the resting dose infusion, to allow for sufficient Rb 82 decay; Administer a pharmacologic stress agent in accordance with its prescribing information; After administration of the pharmacologic stress agent, administer the second dose of Rb 82 at the time interval according to the prescribing information of the pharmacological stress agent; Start imaging 60 to 90 seconds after completion of the stress rubidium Rb 82 chloride dose infusion and acquire images for 3 to 7 minutes. For Both Rest and Stress Imaging: If a longer circulation time is anticipated (e.g., in a patient with severe left ventricular dysfunction), start imaging 120 seconds after the rest dose. Acquisition may be started immediately post-injection if dynamic imaging is needed. 2.4 Elution System Use RUBY-FILL Rubidium Rb 82 Generator only with an elution system specifically designed for use with the generator (RUBY Rubidium Elution System) and capable of accurate measurement and delivery of doses of rubidium Rb 82 chloride injection. The generator used with the elution system provides ± 10% accuracy for rubidium Rb 82 chloride doses between 370 to 2220 MBq (10 to 60 mCi) Follow instructions in the RUBY Rubidium Elution System User Manual for the set up and intravenous infusion of rubidium Rb 82 chloride injection dose. 2.5 Directions for Eluting Rubidium Rb 82 Chloride Injection Use only additive-free 0.9 % Sodium Chloride Injection USP to elute the generator [see Boxed Warning, Contraindications ( 4 ) and Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )] . Prepare the 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection USP for use with the Saline Confirmation Label Affix the saline confirmation label provided with the RUBY Rubidium Elution System on the clear side of the additive-free 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection USP bag and install on the RUBY Rubidium Elution System. Prepare the intravenous administration port in accordance with the DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION section of the approved prescribing information of the 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection USP. The port of the sodium chloride bag must be penetrated only one time. Once the bag port is penetrated, it should remain installed on the RUBY Rubidium Elution System for its entire period of use. A maximum use time of 12 hours from the initial port penetration is permitted. Before the next patient, replace the saline bag as part of the mandatory daily quality control procedure. Allow at least 10 minutes between elutions for regeneration of Rb 82. The system will automatically discard the first 75 mL eluate each day the generator is first eluted. The RUBY Rubidium Elution System automatically generates records and saves data of all eluate volumes (from flushing, QC testing, patient infusions), representing the cumulative volume of eluate from the generator. 2.6 Quality Control Testing Procedure Elute with additive-free 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection USP only. [see Boxed Warning, Contraindications ( 4 ) and Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 ) ]. Replace the saline bag daily as part of the mandatory daily quality control procedure. Use the ionization chamber-type dose calibrator with the elution system (used specifically with the RUBY-FILL Rubidium Rb 82 Generator) for eluate testing. Perform Mandatory Eluate Testing (i.e. Quality Control Testing Procedure) to determine Rb 82, Sr 82, and Sr 85 levels: Daily - Before administering rubidium Rb 82 chloride injection to the first patient each day. Repeat Every 4 patients after an Alert Limit has been detected. Alert Limits: 20 L total elution volume has passed through the generator column, or Sr 82 level reaches 0.004 mcCi per mCi (kBq per MBq) Rb 82, or Sr 85 level reaches 0.04 mcCi per mCi (kBq per MBq) Rb 82. Immediately after detection of the volume alert limit (20 L). The elution system will automatically indicate when alert limits have been reached and require that additional tests be performed. When the Quality Control Testing Procedure is performed as described in the User Manual, the system automatically performs the following eluate testing: Rubidium Eluate Testing: The dose calibrator is automatically set for Rb 82 within the Elution System. The Quality Control test begins by automatically initiating a generator flush using 75 mL of 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection USP. This eluate is by default diverted towards the waste container and is ultimately discarded. After the generator flush, the system waits approximately 15.2 minutes to accomplish a complete generator recharge of 12 Rb 82 half-lives The system then elutes a calibration sample (35 mL of 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection USP at 20 mL/min). Using the dose calibrator, the system automatically quantifies the activity of Rb 82 in the calibration sample (Rb 82 decay does not need to be corrected for because of a real-time automated measurement). Strontium Eluate Testing (Strontium Breakthrough): Using the calibration sample obtained from the Rb 82 eluate testing, the system allows the sample to stand for 30 minutes to allow for the complete decay of Rb 82. The system measures the activity of the sample to automatically determine the total Sr 82 and Sr 85 activity. The system automatically determines the ratio (R) on the day (post calibration) of the measurement using the ratio of Sr 85/Sr 82 on the day of calibration provided on the generator label and the Sr 85/Sr 82 ratio factor from the Sr 85/Sr 82 ratio based on generator age using the following equation: 4. The system uses a correction factor (F) of 0.48 to compensate for the contribution of Sr 85 to the reading. 5. The system calculates the amount of Sr 82 in the sample using the following equation: 6. The system determines if Sr 82 in the eluate exceeds an Alert or Expiration Limit by dividing the mcCi (or kBq) of Sr 82 by the mCi (or MBq) of Rb 82 at End of Elution (see below for further instructions based on the Sr 82 level) 7. The system determines if Sr 85 in the eluate exceeds an Alert or Expiration Limit by multiplying the result obtained in step 6 by (R) as calculated in step 3 (above). The system uses Table 1 to calculate the decay factor for Rb 82 TABLE 1 Physical Decay Chart: Rb 82 half-life 75 seconds Seconds Fraction Remaining Seconds Fraction Remaining 0* 1.00 165 0.218 15 0.871 180 0.190 30 0.758 195 0.165 45 0.660 210 0.144 60 0.574 225 0.125 75 0.500 240 0.109 90 0.435 255 0.095 105 0.379 270 0.083 120 0.330 285 0.072 135 0.287 300 0.063 150 0.250 *Elution time The system uses Table 2 to calculate the ratio (R) of Sr 85/Sr 82.

Certain doses, including the maximum recommended dose [60 mCi (2220 MBq)], are not achievable for the entire shelf-life of the generator. Table 3 provides an estimate of the maximum available activity of Rubidium Rb 82 (Delivery Limit) as a function of generator age. TABLE 3 Rubidium Rb 82 Dose Delivery Limit Based on Generator Age 1 Generator Age (days) 2 Maximum Rubidium Dose (Delivery Limit) 0 to 17 60 mCi (2220 MBq) 24 50 mCi (1850 MBq) 32 40 mCi (1480 MBq) 42 30 mCi (1110 MBq) 57 20 mCi ( 740 MBq) 1 Estimate is based on a 100 mCi (3700 MBq) Sr 82 generator at calibration. 2 Generator age at which delivery limit is reached varies with generator activity at release. For example, an 85 mCi (3145 MBq) generator and a 115 mCi (4255 MBq) generator will reach a delivery limit < 60 mCi at ≥ 12 days and ≥ 23 days, respectively. 2.9 Radiation Dosimetry The estimated radiation absorbed dose coefficients for Rb 82, Sr 82, and Sr 85 from an intravenous injection of rubidium Rb 82 chloride are shown in Table 4.

The following serious adverse reaction associated with the use of rubidium Rb 82 chloride was identified in clinical trials or post marketing reports. 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. Radiation Exposure High level radiation exposure to the bone marrow has occurred in some patients due to Sr 82 and Sr 85 breakthrough in the eluate when an incorrect solution was used to elute the rubidium Rb 82 generator [see Boxed Warning, Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )] . Excess radiation exposure has occurred in some patients who received rubidium Rb 82 chloride injection at clinical sites where generator eluate testing appeared insufficient [see Boxed Warning, Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 ), Dosage and Administration ( 2.6 )] .
