Perjeta 420mg Injection

Pertuzumab is a HER2/neu receptor antagonist indicated for: Use in combination with trastuzumab and docetaxel for treatment of adults with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC) who have not received prior anti-HER2 therapy or chemotherapy for metastatic disease. Use in combination with trastuzumab and chemotherapy as neoadjuvant treatment of adults with HER2-positive, locally advanced, inflammatory, or early stage breast cancer (either greater than 2 cm in diameter or node positive) as part of a complete treatment regimen for early breast cancer. adjuvant treatment of adults with HER2-positive early breast cancer at high risk of recurrence Metastatic Breast Cancer (MBC) Pertuzumab is indicated for use in combination with trastuzumab and docetaxel for the treatment of adults with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer who have not received prior anti-HER2 therapy or chemotherapy for metastatic disease. Early Breast Cancer (EBC) Pertuzumab is indicated for use in combination with trastuzumab and chemotherapy for the neoadjuvant treatment of adults with HER2-positive, locally advanced, inflammatory, or early stage breast cancer (either greater than 2 cm in diameter or node positive) as part of a complete treatment regimen for early breast cancer. the adjuvant treatment of adults with HER2-positive early breast cancer at high risk of recurrence.

Boxed warning. LEFT VENTRICULAR DYSFUNCTION and EMBRYO-FETAL TOXICITY Left Ventricular Dysfunction: Pertuzumab can cause subclinical and clinical cardiac failure manifesting as decreased LVEF and CHF. Evaluate cardiac function prior to and during treatment. Discontinue Pertuzumab treatment for a confirmed clinically significant decrease in left ventricular function. Embryo-fetal Toxicity: Exposure to Pertuzumab can cause embryo-fetal death and birth defects. Advise patients of these risks and the need for effective contraception. WARNING: LEFT VENTRICULAR DYSFUNCTION and EMBRYO-FETAL TOXICITY See full prescribing information for complete boxed warning. Left Ventricular Dysfunction: Pertuzumab can cause subclinical and clinical cardiac failure manifesting as decreased LVEF and CHF. Infusion-Related Reactions: Pertuzumab can cause serious infusion reactions, including fatal events: Monitor for signs and symptoms. If a significant infusion-associated reaction occurs, slow or interrupt the infusion and administer appropriate medical therapies. Hypersensitivity Reactions/Anaphylaxis: Pertuzumab can cause hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis: Monitor for signs and symptoms, including angioedema. If a severe hypersensitivity reaction/anaphylaxis occurs, discontinue the infusion immediately and administer appropriate medical therapies. Left Ventricular Dysfunction Pertuzumab can cause left ventricular dysfunction, including symptomatic heart failure. Decreases in LVEF have been reported with drugs that block HER2 activity, including Pertuzumab. Assess LVEF prior to initiation of Pertuzumab and at regular intervals during treatment to ensure that LVEF is within normal limits. If the LVEF declines and has not improved, or has declined further at the subsequent assessment, consider permanent discontinuation of Pertuzumab and trastuzumab. In the Pertuzumab-treated patients with MBC in CLEOPATRA, left ventricular dysfunction occurred in 4% of patients and symptomatic left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD) (congestive heart failure) occurred in 1% of patients. Patients who received prior anthracyclines or prior radiotherapy to the chest area may be at higher risk of decreased LVEF or left ventricular dysfunction. In patients receiving Pertuzumab as a neoadjuvant treatment in combination with trastuzumab and docetaxel in NeoSphere, LVEF decline > 10% and a drop to < 50% occurred in 8% of patients and left ventricular dysfunction occurred in 3% of patients. LVEF recovered to ≥ 50% in all these patients. Abridged from the full prescribing information.

The most common adverse reactions (>30%) with Pertuzumab in combination with docetaxel, carboplatin, and trastuzumab (TCH) were fatigue, alopecia, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and anemia. The most common adverse reactions (>30%) with Pertuzumab in combination with trastuzumab and paclitaxel when given for 4 cycles following 4 cycles of ddAC were nausea, diarrhea, alopecia, fatigue, constipation, peripheral neuropathy, and headache. The most common adverse reactions (>30%) with Pertuzumab in combination with trastuzumab and docetaxel when given for 4 cycles following 4 cycles of FEC were diarrhea, nausea, alopecia, asthenia, constipation, fatigue, mucosal inflammation, vomiting, myalgia, and anemia. Adjuvant Treatment of Breast Cancer The most common adverse reactions (>30%) with Pertuzumab in combination with trastuzumab and chemotherapy were diarrhea, nausea, alopecia, fatigue, peripheral neuropathy and vomiting.. Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in clinical practice. Metastatic Breast Cancer (MBC) CLEOPATRA The safety of Pertuzumab in combination with trastuzumab and docetaxel was evaluated in a randomized trial (CLEOPATRA) in patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer.
