Recommended Dosage Modifications for Adverse Reactions for RYBREVANT in Combination with Carboplatin and Pemetrexed

Preparation
Dilute and prepare RYBREVANT for intravenous infusion before administration.
- Check that the RYBREVANT solution is colorless to pale yellow. Parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration, whenever solution and container permit. Do not use if discoloration or visible particles are present.
- Determine the dose required of RYBREVANT needed based on patient's baseline weight [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)] . Each vial of RYBREVANT contains 350 mg of amivantamab-vmjw.
- Withdraw and then discard a volume of either 5% dextrose solution or 0.9% sodium chloride solution from the 250 mL infusion bag equal to the volume of RYBREVANT to be added (i.e., discard 7 mL diluent from the infusion bag for each RYBREVANT vial). Only use infusion bags made of polyvinylchloride (PVC), polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), or polyolefin blend (PP+PE).
- Withdraw 7 mL of RYBREVANT from each vial and add it to the infusion bag. The final volume in the infusion bag should be 250 mL. Discard any unused portion left in the vial.
- Gently invert the bag to mix the solution. Do not shake.
- Diluted solutions should be administered within 10 hours (including infusion time) at room temperature 59°F to 77°F (15°C to 25°C).
Administration
- Administer the diluted RYBREVANT solution [see Dosage and Administration (2.7)] by intravenous infusion using an infusion set fitted with a flow regulator and with an in-line, sterile, non-pyrogenic, low protein-binding polyethersulfone (PES) filter (pore size 0.2 micrometer).
- Administration sets must be made of either polyurethane (PU), polybutadiene (PBD), PVC, PP, or PE.
- The administration set with filter, mustbe primed with either 5% dextrose solution or 0.9% sodium chloride solution prior to the initiation of each RYBREVANT infusion.
- Do not infuse RYBREVANT concomitantly in the same intravenous line with other agents.
RYBREVANT in Combination with Carboplatin and Pemetrexed
- Administer RYBREVANT in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed infusions every 3 weeks intravenously according to the infusion rates in Table 7.
- Administer RYBREVANT via a peripheral line on Week 1 and Week 2 given the high incidence of infusion-related reactions during initial treatment [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].
- RYBREVANT may be administered via central line for subsequent weeks.
- For the initial infusion, prepare RYBREVANT as close to administration time as possible to allow for the possibility of extended infusion time in the event of an infusion related reaction.
- Administer the pemetrexed infusion first, carboplatin infusion second, and the RYBREVANT infusion last.
