Safety information2
Clinical use:
Authorization was based on overall response rate, complete response rate and durability of response from a single-arm clinical study. An improvement in progression-free survival or overall survival has not been established.
Pediatrics (<18 years of age): No data are available to Health Canada; therefore, Health Canada has not authorized an indication for pediatric use.
Geriatrics (≥65 years of age): Among 81 patients treated in the L-MIND study, 72% were 65 years and older. Patients 65 years of age and older had more serious treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) (57%) than younger patients (39%).
Evidence from clinical studies does not suggest that use in the geriatric population is associated with differences in effectiveness.
Contraindications:
- MINJUVI® is contraindicated in patients who are hypersensitive to this drug or to any ingredient in the formulation, including any non-medicinal ingredient, or component of the container.
Most serious warnings and precautions:
Infection: Clinically significant and/or life-threatening adverse events including fatal, life-threatening, or serious infections, including opportunistic infections have been reported in patients treated with MINJUVI® in combination with lenalidomide.
Myelosuppression: Serious and severe myelosuppression, including neutropenia, febrile neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and anemia have been reported in patients treated with MINJUVI® in combination with lenalidomide.
Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy (PML): PML can occur in patients receiving MINJUVI® in combination with lenalidomide. MINJUVI® treatment should be interrupted in case of PML suspicion, until the diagnosis can be clearly established. Discontinue MINJUVI® therapy and consider discontinuation or reduction of lenalidomide therapy in patients who develop PML.
Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) Reactivation: HBV reactivation has been observed in studies of MINJUVI® in combination with lenalidomide. Patients should be screened for HBV infection before treatment initiation and should be monitored during and after treatment with MINJUVI®. In the event of HBV reactivation, MINJUVI® should be discontinued.
Other relevant warnings and precautions:
- MINJUVI® is administered by intravenous infusion only. DO NOT administer as an intravenous push or bolus dose.
- Infusion-related reactions may occur and have been reported in clinical studies with MINJUVI®.
- Patients should be monitored closely throughout the infusion.
- Patients should be monitored closely for tumor lysis syndrome during treatment. Patients with high tumor burden and rapidly proliferative tumor may be at increased risk of tumor lysis syndrome.
- Vaccination with live vaccines is not recommended concurrently with MINJUVI® therapy.
- Treatment with tafasitamab in combination with lenalidomide should not be initiated in female patients unless pregnancy has been excluded.
- MINJUVI® may cause fetal harm. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during MINJUVI® treatment and for at least 3 months after the end of treatment.
- MINJUVI® is not recommended during pregnancy and in women of childbearing potential not using contraception.
- Advise women not to breast-feed during treatment with MINJUVI® until at least 3 months after the last dose.
