2.6 Preparation and Administration

Reconstitute and dilute MONJUVI prior to infusion.

Reconstitution

  1. Calculate the dose (mg) and determine the number of vials needed.
  2. Reconstitute each 200 mg MONJUVI vial with 5 mL Sterile Water for Injection, USP with the stream directed toward the wall of each vial to obtain a final concentration of 40 mg/mL tafasitamab-cxix.
  3. Gently swirl the vial(s) until completely dissolved. Do not shake or swirl vigorously. Complete dissolution may take up to 5 minutes.
  4. Visually inspect the reconstituted solution for particulate matter or discoloration. The reconstituted solution should appear as a colorless to slightly yellow solution. Discard the vial(s) if the solution is cloudy, discolored, or contains visible particles.
  5. Use the reconstituted MONJUVI solution immediately. If needed, store the reconstituted solution in the vial for a maximum of 12 hours either refrigerated at 36°F to 46°F (2°C to 8°C) or room temperature at 68°F to 77°F (20°C to 25°C) before dilution. Protect from light during storage.

Dilution

  1. Determine the volume (mL) of the 40 mg/mL reconstituted MONJUVI solution needed based on the required dose.
  2. Remove a volume equal to the required MONJUVI solution from a 250 mL 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP infusion bag and discard it.
  3. Withdraw the necessary amount of MONJUVI and slowly dilute in the infusion bag that contains the 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP to a final concentration of 2 mg/mL to 8 mg/mL. Discard any unused portion of MONJUVI remaining in the vial.
  4. Gently mix the intravenous bag by slowly inverting the bag. Do not shake. Visually inspect the infusion bag with the diluted MONJUVI infusion solution for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration.
  5. If not used immediately, store the diluted MONJUVI infusion solution refrigerated for up to 18 hours at 36°F to 46°F (2°C to 8°C) and/or at room temperature for up to 12 hours at 68°F to 77°F (20°C to 25°C). The room temperature storage includes time for infusion. Protect from light during storage.

Do not shake or freeze the reconstituted or diluted infusion solutions.

Administration

  • Administer MONJUVI as an intravenous infusion.
    • For the first infusion, use an infusion rate of 70 mL/h for the first 30 minutes, then, increase the rate so that the infusion is administered within 1.5 to 2.5 hours.
    • Administer all subsequent infusions within 1.5 to 2 hours.

5. Warnings and Precautions

5.1 Infusion-Related Reactions

MONJUVI can cause infusion-related reactions [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. In L-MIND, infusion-related reactions occurred in 6% of the 81 patients with DLBCL who received MONJUVI in combination with lenalidomide. Eighty percent of infusion-related reactions occurred during cycle 1 or 2. In inMIND, infusion-related reactions occurred in 16% of the 274 patients with FL who received MONJUVI in combination with rituximab and lenalidomide. Signs and symptoms included fever, chills, rash, flushing, dyspnea, and hypertension. These reactions were managed with temporary interruption of the infusion and/or with supportive medication.

Premedicate patients prior to starting MONJUVI infusion [see Dosage and Administration (2.4)]. Monitor patients frequently during infusion. Based on the severity of the infusion-related reaction, interrupt or discontinue MONJUVI [see Dosage and Administration (2.5)]. Institute appropriate medical management.

5.2 Myelosuppression

MONJUVI can cause serious or severe myelosuppression, including neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and anemia [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. In L-MIND, Grade 3 neutropenia occurred in 25% of the 81 patients with DLBCL who received MONJUVI in combination with lenalidomide, Grade 3 thrombocytopenia in 12%, and Grade 3 anemia in 7%. Grade 4 neutropenia occurred in 25% and Grade 4 thrombocytopenia in 6%. Neutropenia led to treatment discontinuation in 3.7% of the 81 patients with DLBCL.

In inMIND, Grade 3 neutropenia occurred in 28% of the 274 patients with FL who received MONJUVI in combination with rituximab and lenalidomide, Grade 3 thrombocytopenia in 4%, and Grade 3 anemia in 4%. Grade 4 neutropenia occurred in 18% and Grade 4 thrombocytopenia in 2%. Neutropenia and thrombocytopenia led to treatment discontinuation in 2 patients each.

Monitor CBC prior to administration of each treatment cycle and throughout treatment. Monitor patients with neutropenia for signs of infection. Consider granulocyte colony-stimulating factor administration. Withhold MONJUVI based on the severity of the adverse reaction [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)].Refer to the lenalidomide prescribing information and the rituximab prescribing information for the respective dosage modifications.

5.3 Infections

Fatal and serious infections, including opportunistic infections, occurred in patients during treatment with MONJUVI and following the last dose [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)].

In L-MIND, 73% of the 81 patients with DLBCL who received MONJUVI in combination with lenalidomide, developed an infection. The most frequent infections were respiratory tract infection (24%), urinary tract infection (17%), bronchitis (16%), nasopharyngitis (10%) and pneumonia (10%). Grade 3 or higher infection occurred in 30% of the 81 patients. The most frequent Grade 3 or higher infection was pneumonia (7%). Infection-related deaths were reported in 2.5% of the 81 patients.

In inMIND, 68% of the 274 patients with FL who received MONJUVI in combination with rituximab and lenalidomide, developed an infection. The most frequent infections were COVID-19 (31%), pneumonia (12%), upper respiratory tract infection (9%), urinary tract infection (7%), respiratory tract infection (7%), and nasopharyngitis (6%). Grade 3 or 4 infection occurred in 24% of the 274 patients. The most frequent Grade 3 or 4 infection was pneumonia (8%) and COVID-19 (6%). Infection-related deaths were reported in 3 of the 274 patients.

Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of infection and manage infections as appropriate.

5.4 Embryo-Fetal Toxicity

Based on its mechanism of action, MONJUVI may cause fetal B-cell depletion when administered to a pregnant woman. Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with MONJUVI and for at least 3 months after the last dose [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1, 8.3)].

The combination of MONJUVI with lenalidomide and of MONJUVI with rituximab and lenalidomide is contraindicated in pregnant women because lenalidomide can cause birth defects and death of the unborn child. Refer to the lenalidomide prescribing information on use during pregnancy.

6. Adverse Reactions/Side Effects

The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling:

  • Infusion-related reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]
  • Myelosuppression [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)]
  • Infections [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)]

8. Use In Specific Populations

8.1 Pregnancy

Risk Summary

Based on its mechanism of action, MONJUVI may cause fetal B-cell depletion when administered to a pregnant woman [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.1)]. There are no available data on MONJUVI use in pregnant women to evaluate for a drug-associated risk. Animal reproductive toxicity studies have not been conducted with tafasitamab-cxix.

In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively.

MONJUVI is administered in combination with lenalidomide for up to 12 cycles. Lenalidomide can cause embryo-fetal harm and is contraindicated for use in pregnancy. Refer to the lenalidomide prescribing information for additional information. Lenalidomide is only available through a REMS program.

Clinical Considerations

Fetal/Neonatal Adverse Reactions

Immunoglobulin G (IgG) monoclonal antibodies are transferred across the placenta. Based on its mechanism of action, MONJUVI may cause depletion of fetal CD19 positive immune cells. Defer administering live vaccines to neonates and infants exposed to tafasitamab-cxix in utero until a hematology evaluation is completed.

Data

Animal Data

Animal reproductive studies have not been conducted with tafasitamab-cxix. Tafasitamab-cxix is an IgG antibody and thus has the potential to cross the placental barrier permitting direct fetal exposure and depleting fetal B lymphocytes.

8.2 Lactation

Risk Summary

There are no data on the presence of tafasitamab-cxix in human milk or the effects on the breastfed child or milk production. Maternal immunoglobulin G is known to be present in human milk. The effects of local gastrointestinal exposure and limited systemic exposure in the breastfed infant to MONJUVI are unknown. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in the breastfed child, advise women not to breastfeed during treatment with MONJUVI and for at least 3 months after the last dose. Refer to lenalidomide prescribing information for additional information.

8.3 Females and Males of Reproductive Potential

MONJUVI can cause fetal B-cell depletion when administered to a pregnant woman [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1)].

Pregnancy Testing

Refer to the prescribing information for lenalidomide for pregnancy testing requirements prior to initiating the combination of MONJUVI with lenalidomide or the combination of MONJUVI with rituximab and lenalidomide.

Contraception

Females

Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with MONJUVI and for at least 3 months after the last dose. Additionally, refer to the lenalidomide prescribing information for additional recommendations for contraception.

Males

Refer to the lenalidomide prescribing information for recommendations.

8.4 Pediatric Use

The safety and effectiveness of MONJUVI in pediatric patients have not been established.

8.5 Geriatric Use

Relapsed or Refractory Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma

Among 81 patients who received MONJUVI and lenalidomide in L-MIND, 72% were 65 years and older, while 38% were 75 years and older. Clinical studies of MONJUVI did not include sufficient numbers of patients aged 65 and older to determine whether effectiveness differs compared to that of younger subjects. Patients 65 years and older had more serious adverse reactions (57%) than younger patients (39%).

Previously Treated Follicular Lymphoma

Among the 274 patients with FL who received MONJUVI in combination with rituximab and lenalidomide in inMIND, 50% were 65 years and older and 20% were 75 years and older. No clinically meaningful differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between these patients and younger patients but greater sensitivity of some older individuals cannot be ruled out.

11. Monjuvi Description

Tafasitamab-cxix is a humanized CD19-directed cytolytic monoclonal antibody that contains an IgG1/2 hybrid Fc-domain with 2 amino acid substitutions to modify the Fc-mediated functions of the antibody. It is produced by recombinant DNA technology in mammalian cells (Chinese hamster ovary). Tafasitamab-cxix has a molecular weight of approximately 150 kDa.

MONJUVI (tafasitamab-cxix) for injection is supplied as a sterile, preservative-free, white to slightly yellowish lyophilized powder in a single-dose vial for intravenous use after reconstitution and further dilution. After reconstitution with 5 mL of Sterile Water for Injection, USP, the resulting concentration is 40 mg/mL with a pH of 6.0. Each single-dose vial contains 200 mg tafasitamab-cxix, citric acid monohydrate (3.7 mg), polysorbate 20 (1 mg), sodium citrate dihydrate (31.6 mg) and trehalose dihydrate (378.3 mg).

12. Monjuvi - Clinical Pharmacology

12.1 Mechanism of Action

Tafasitamab-cxix is an Fc-modified monoclonal antibody that binds to CD19 antigen expressed on the surface of pre-B and mature B lymphocytes and on several B-cell malignancies, including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and follicular lymphoma (FL).

Upon binding to CD19, tafasitamab-cxix mediates B-cell lysis through apoptosis and immune effector mechanisms, including antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP).

In studies conducted in vitro in DLBCL tumor cells, tafasitamab-cxix in combination with lenalidomide resulted in increased ADCC activity compared to tafasitamab-cxix or lenalidomide alone. In a preclinical study, the combination of tafasitamab and rituximab improved efficacy compared to single-agent treatments in models of aggressive B-cell lymphoma in vitro and in vivo.

12.2 Pharmacodynamics

Tafasitamab-cxix reduced peripheral blood B cell counts by 97% after eight days of treatment in patients with relapsed or refractory DLBCL. Nadir, with a reduction of 100%, was reached within 16 weeks of treatment.

Circulating B-cells decreased to undetectable levels (nearly 0 cells/microliter) after administration of the recommended dosage of MONJUVI in patients with FL who had detectable B-cells at treatment initiation by Cycle 1 Day 8 and the depletion was sustained while patients remained on treatment.

12.3 Pharmacokinetics

Mean trough concentrations (± standard deviation) were 177 (± 66) μg/mL following administration of MONJUVI at 12 mg/kg on Days 1, 8, 15, and 22 in Cycles 1-3 , and 166 (± 75) μg/mL following administration of MONJUVI at 12 mg/kg on Days 1 and 15 in Cycles 4 - 6. Mean maximum tafasitamab-cxix serum concentrations were 491 (±128) μg/mL.

Distribution

The total volume of distribution at steady state for tafasitamab-cxix was 6.7 L (95% CI: 2.9, 10.5 L).

Elimination

The clearance of tafasitamab-cxix was 0.48 L/day (CV: 28.2%) and terminal elimination half-life was 11.3 days (95% CI: 4.9, 17.8 days).

Specific Populations

Bodyweight (37.6 to 163 kg) has a significant effect on the pharmacokinetics of tafasitamab-cxix, with higher clearance and volume of distribution expected with higher body weight. No clinically meaningful differences in the pharmacokinetics of tafasitamab-cxix were observed based on age (16 to 90 years), sex, race (Asian versus non-Asian), renal impairment (CLcr 15 to < 90 mL/min estimated by the Cockcroft-Gault equation), or hepatic impairment (total bilirubin 1 to > 3 times ULN and any AST).

Drug Interaction Studies

No clinically meaningful differences in tafasitamab-cxix pharmacokinetics were observed when used concomitantly with lenalidomide and with the combination of rituximab and lenalidomide.

12.6 Immunogenicity

As with all therapeutic proteins, there is the potential for immunogenicity. The detection of antibody formation is highly dependent on the sensitivity and specificity of the assays. Additionally, the observed incidence of antibody (including neutralizing antibody) positivity in an assay may be influenced by several factors, including assay methodology, sample handling, timing of sample collection, concomitant medications, and underlying disease. For these reasons, comparison of the incidence of antibodies in the studies described below with the incidence of antibodies in other studies or to other tafasitamab products may be misleading.

Overall, no treatment-emergent or treatment-boosted anti-tafasitamab antibodies were observed. No clinically meaningful differences in the pharmacokinetics, efficacy, or safety profile of tafasitamab-cxix were observed in 2.5% of 81 patients with relapsed or refractory DLBCL with pre-existing anti-tafasitamab antibodies in L-MIND.

Anti-drug antibodies (ADAs) were evaluated in 327 patients who received MONJUVI in inMIND. The incidence of tafasitamab-cxix treatment-emergent ADAs was 0.9% (3/327) using a bridging enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. No neutralizing antibodies were detected. There was no apparent clinically meaningful effect of these antibodies on the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, safety, or effectiveness of MONJUVI over the treatment duration of 322.5 days.

13. Nonclinical Toxicology

13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility

Carcinogenicity and genotoxicity studies have not been conducted with tafasitamab-cxix.

Fertility studies have not been conducted with tafasitamab-cxix.

In the 13-week repeat-dose general toxicity study in cynomolgus monkeys, no adverse effects on male and female reproductive organs were observed up to the highest dose tested, 100 mg/kg/week (approximately 9 times the human exposure based on AUC at the clinical dose of 12 mg/kg/week).

14. Clinical Studies

14.1 Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma

The efficacy of MONJUVI in combination with lenalidomide followed by MONJUVI as monotherapy was evaluated in L-MIND,an open-label, multicenter, single arm trial (NCT02399085). Eligible patients had relapsed or refractory DLBCL after 1 to 3 prior systemic therapies, including a CD20-directed cytolytic antibody, and were not candidates for high dose chemotherapy (HDC) followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). Patients received MONJUVI 12 mg/kg intravenously in combination with lenalidomide (25 mg orally on Days 1 to 21 of each 28-day cycle) for a maximum of 12 cycles, followed by MONJUVI as monotherapy until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity as follows:

  • Cycle 1: Days 1, 4, 8, 15 and 22 of the 28-day cycle;
  • Cycles 2 and 3: Days 1, 8, 15 and 22 of each 28-day cycle;
  • Cycles 4 and beyond: Days 1 and 15 of each 28-day cycle.

Of the 71 patients with DLBCL confirmed by central laboratory who received the combination therapy, the median age was 71 years (range: 41 to 86 years); 55% were males, and 100% had received a prior CD20-containing therapy. Race was collected in 92% of patients; of these, 95% were White, and 3% were Asian. The median number of prior therapies was two; 49% had one prior line of treatment, and 51% had 2 to 4 prior lines. Thirty-two patients (45%) were refractory to their last prior therapy and 30 (42%) were refractory to rituximab. Nine patients (13%) had received prior ASCT. The primary reasons patients were not candidates for ASCT included age (47%), refractoriness to salvage chemotherapy (27%), comorbidities (13%) and refusal of high dose chemotherapy/ASCT (13%).

Efficacy was established based on best overall response rate, defined as the proportion of complete and partial responders, and duration of response, as assessed by an Independent Review Committee using the International Working Group Response Criteria (Cheson, 2007). Results are summarized in Table 8.

14.2 Follicular Lymphoma

The efficacy of MONJUVI in combination with rituximab and lenalidomide in patients with previously treated FL was evaluated in inMIND, a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial (NCT04680052). A total of 548 patients at least 18 years of age with histologically confirmed Grade 1, 2, or 3a relapsed or refractory FL were enrolled in the study. Eligible patients had received at least 1 prior systemic therapy, including an anti-CD20 antibody, had at least one measurable nodal or extranodal lesion by CT or MRI scan, had adequate bone marrow, liver, and renal function, and had Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 – 2.

Patients were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive MONJUVI or placebo in combination with rituximab and lenalidomide. Randomization was stratified by progression of disease within 24 months after initial diagnosis (POD24) (yes versus no), refractoriness to prior CD20-directed antibody therapy (yes versus no), and the number of prior lines of therapy (< 2 versus ≥ 2). Dosing in each treatment arm was as follows:

  • MONJUVI 12 mg/kg intravenously (Days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of Cycles 1 to 3 and on Days 1 and 15 of Cycles 4 to 12) in combination with rituximab 375 mg/m⊃; intravenously (Days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of Cycle 1 and on Day 1 of Cycles 2 to 5) and lenalidomide 20 mg orally once daily (Days 1 to 21 of Cycles 1 to 12).
  • Placebo intravenously (Days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of Cycles 1 to 3 and on Days 1 and 15 of Cycles 4 to 12) in combination with rituximab 375 mg/m⊃; intravenously (Days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of Cycle 1 and on Day 1 of Cycles 2 to 5) and lenalidomide 20 mg orally once daily (Days 1 to 21 of Cycles 1 to 12).

The baseline demographic and disease characteristics in the inMIND trial are summarized in Table 9.

Table 9: Baseline Demographics and Disease Characteristics of Patients with Follicular Lymphoma in inMIND
*

Relapsed lymphoma is defined as relapsed after initial response of Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) ≥ 6 months after prior therapy. Refractory lymphoma is defined as achieved less than PR to the last treatment or achieved a CR or PR that lasted < 6 months.

Indeterminate includes patients whose best overall response to prior line of therapy was not evaluated or unknown, and the date of prior progression of disease could not be derived.

The major efficacy outcome measure of the inMIND trial was investigator-assessed progression-free survival (PFS), defined as the time from randomization to first documented disease progression, or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. Additional efficacy outcome measures included investigator-assessed positron emission tomography (PET)–complete response (CR) rate, defined as a complete metabolic response at any time after start of treatment, overall survival (OS), overall response rate (ORR), and duration of response (DOR).The median duration of PFS follow-up was 14.3 months (95% CI: 11.8, 15) in the MONJUVI group and 14.1 months (95% CI: 11.5, 15) in the placebo group.

for injection

What is MONJUVI?
MONJUVI is a prescription medicine given:

  • in combination with lenalidomide to treat adults with certain types of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) that has come back (relapsed) or that did not respond to previous treatment (refractory) and who cannot receive a stem cell transplant.
  • in combination with a rituximab product and lenalidomide, to treat adults with follicular lymphoma (FL) that has been previously treated.

It is not known if MONJUVI is safe and effective in children.

Before you receive MONJUVI, tell your healthcare provider about all of your medical conditions, including if you:
  • have an active infection or have had one recently.
  • are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. MONJUVI may harm your unborn baby. You should not become pregnant during treatment with MONJUVI. Do not receive treatment with MONJUVI in combination with lenalidomide if you are pregnant because lenalidomide can cause birth defects and death of your unborn baby.
    • You should use an effective method of birth control (contraception) during treatment and for at least 3 months after your last dose of MONJUVI.
    • Tell your healthcare provider right away if you become pregnant or think you may be pregnant during treatment with MONJUVI.
  • are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed. It is not known if MONJUVI passes into your breastmilk. Do not breastfeed during treatment and for at least 3 months after your last dose of MONJUVI.
You should also read the lenalidomide Medication Guide for important information about pregnancy, contraception, and blood and sperm donation.
Tell your healthcare provider about all the medicines you take, including prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements.
How will I receive MONJUVI?
  • MONJUVI will be given to you by your healthcare provider as an intravenous (IV) infusion into one of your veins.
  • Your healthcare provider will give you medicines before each infusion to decrease your chance of infusion reactions. If you do not have any reactions, your healthcare provider may decide that you do not need these medicines with later infusions.
  • Each treatment cycle of MONJUVI lasts for 28 days.
  • Your healthcare provider may need to delay or completely stop treatment with MONJUVI if you have severe side effects.
  • Your healthcare provider will decide how many treatments you need.
  • If you miss any appointments, call your healthcare provider as soon as possible to reschedule your appointment.
What are the possible side effects of MONJUVI?
MONJUVI may cause serious side effects, including:
