Contraindications
Warnings/Precautions
Warnings
Intrathecal Administration
Fatal if administered intrathecally; management of patients mistakenly receiving intrathecal vinorelbine is a medical emergency.1 73
Prognosis to date for patients inadvertently receiving another vinca alkaloid generally has been poor despite immediate efforts to remove spinal fluid and flush with lactated Ringer’s injection and other solutions, with such efforts failing to prevent ascending paralysis and death in almost all cases.93 94
In one adult patient, progression of paralysis was stopped when treatment was initiated immediately after inadvertent intrathecal injection of vincristine.93
Treatment consisted of immediate removal of as much CSF as safely possible via lumbar access, followed by flushing of the subarachnoid space with lactated Ringer’s solution infused continuously at a rate of 150 mL/hour through a catheter in a cerebral lateral ventricle and removal of fluid through a lumbar access.93
As soon as available, fresh frozen plasma (25 mL) diluted in 1 L of lactated Ringer’s solution was infused through the cerebral ventricular catheter at a rate of 75 mL/hour with removal of fluid through the lumbar access.93 The rate of infusion was adjusted to maintain a CSF protein concentration of 150 mg/dL.93 Glutamic acid was administered in a dose of 10 g given IV over 24 hours, followed by 500 mg orally 3 times daily for 1 month or until stabilization of neurologic status.93 94 The role of glutamic acid in this treatment is uncertain.93
Hematologic Effects
Granulocytopenia usually is the dose-limiting factor in therapy.b c Nadir in granulocyte count generally occurs 7–10 days after administration and recovery usually occurs within another 7–14 days.1 5 21 23 26 b c
Perform CBC with differential before administration of each dose.b c
Do not administer if granulocyte counts <1000/mm3.b c
Carefully monitor patients with severe granulocytopenia for evidence of infection and/or fever.b c (See Hematologic Toxicity under Dosage and Administration.)
Respiratory Effects
Acute shortness of breath and severe bronchospasm have occurred rarely; most frequently when mitomycin was administered concomitantly.1 b c May require treatment with supplemental oxygen, bronchodilators, and/or corticosteroids, particularly with preexisting pulmonary dysfunction.b c
Fatal interstitial pulmonary changes and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) have been reported.1 b c Mean time to onset of symptoms was 1 week (range: 3–8 days).b c Evaluate promptly patients with preexisting pulmonary dysfunction or new onset of dyspnea, cough, hypoxia, or other symptoms.b c
GI Effects
GI effects (some fatal), including severe constipation (grade 3 or 4), paralytic ileus, intestinal obstruction, necrosis, and/or perforation reported.b c
Fetal/Neonatal Morbidity and Mortality
May cause fetal harm; teratogenicity and embryolethality demonstrated in animals.1 b c Avoid pregnancy during therapy.1 b c If used during pregnancy or patient becomes pregnant, apprise of potential fetal hazard.1 b c
Major Toxicities
Hepatic Toxicity
Adjust dosage according to hepatic toxicity.b c (See Hepatic Toxicity under Dosage and Administration.)
General Precautions
Administer only under constant supervision by clinicians experienced in therapy with chemotherapeutic agents.1 b c
Pattern of adverse effects appears to be similar in patients receiving monotherapy or combination therapy with vinorelbine.1 b c
Most drug-related adverse effects are reversible.b c If severe adverse effects occur, reduce dosage or discontinue therapy.b c Reinstitute therapy with caution; possible recurrence of toxicity.b c
Compromised Bone Marrow Reserve
Use with extreme caution in patients whose bone marrow reserve may have been compromised by prior chemotherapy or radiation therapy, or whose marrow function is recovering from previous cytotoxic therapy.b c
Nervous System Effects
Monitor patients with preexisting neuropathy, regardless of etiology, for new or worsening signs and symptoms, while receiving the drug.b c
Eye Contamination
Avoid contamination of the eye(s) with the drug; severe irritation may occur with accidental exposure.b c If contamination occurs, immediately wash eye(s) with water.b c
Hepatic Effects
Transient elevations of liver enzymes were reported without clinical symptoms.1 21 26 80 (See Hepatic Toxicity under Dosage and Administration.)
Specific Populations
Pregnancy
Category D.c (See Fetal/Neonatal Morbidity and Mortality under Cautions.)
Lactation
Not known whether vinorelbine is distributed into milk.1 b c Discontinue nursing or drug.1 b c
Pediatric Use
Safety and efficacy in children <18 years of age have not been established.1 20 b c
Limited number of pediatric patients with recurrent solid malignant tumors (e.g., rhabdomyosarcoma/undifferentiated sarcoma, neuroblastoma, CNS tumors) have received vinorelbine dosages similar to adults; no clinical efficacy reported.b c Toxicities were similar to adults.b c
Geriatric Use
No overall differences in safety and efficacy relative to younger adults.1 b c Although response in patients ≥65 years of age does not appear to differ from that in younger adults, possibility exists of greater sensitivity in some geriatric patients.1 b c
Hepatic Impairment
No evidence that vinorelbine-associated toxicity is increased in patients with elevated hepatic enzymes.b c
Administer with caution and reduce dosage in patients with severe hepatic impairment, since drug is metabolized by hepatic enzymes and clinical experience in severe hepatic impairment is limited.b c (See Hepatic Toxicity under Dosage and Administration.)
Renal Impairment
Dosage reduction in patients with renal impairment does not appear to be necessary.1 b c
Common Adverse Effects
Myelosuppression, anemia, injection site reactions (e.g., erythema, pain, chemical phlebitis, vein discoloration), fatigue, chest pain, constipation, nausea, vomiting, hypertension, malaise, paresthesia, peripheral neuropathy, loss of deep tendon reflexes, diarrhea, asthenia.1 b c

Actions
-
Mechanism of action not fully elucidated; vinorelbine and other vinca alkaloids exert their cytotoxic effects by binding to tubulin, the protein subunit of the microtubules that form the mitotic spindle.3 5 6 7 8 9 10 21
-
Formation of vinorelbine-tubulin complexes prevents the polymerization of the tubulin subunits into microtubules, induces depolymerization of microtubules resulting in inhibition of microtubule assembly and cellular metaphase arrest.1 3 5 6 7 8 9 10 21
-
Also interferes with amino acid, cyclic AMP, and glutathione metabolism; calmodulin-dependent calcium2 +-transport ATPase activity, cellular respiration; and nucleic acid and lipid biosynthesis.1 21 b c
Advice to Patients
-
Importance of advising patients about hematologic toxicity and increased risk of infection.b c
-
Importance of immediately informing clinician if fever or chills occur.b c
-
Importance of informing clinician if increased shortness of breath, cough, or other new pulmonary symptoms occur.1 b
-
Importance of informing clinician if abdominal pain or constipation occurs.1 b c
