Clinical summary
Indications and usage 1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE CABLIVI is indicated for the treatment of adult and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older with acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (aTTP), in combination with plasma exchange and immunosuppressive therapy. CABLIVI is a von Willebrand factor (vWF)-directed antibody fragment indicated for the treatment of adult and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older with acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (aTTP), in combination with plasma exchange and immunosuppressive therapy. ( 1 ) Dosage and administration 2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION CABLIVI should be administered upon the initiation of plasma exchange therapy. The recommended dose of CABLIVI is as follows: ( 2.1 ) First day of treatment: 11 mg bolus intravenous injection at least 15 minutes prior to plasma exchange followed by an 11 mg subcutaneous injection after completion of plasma exchange on day 1. Subsequent treatment during daily plasma exchange: 11 mg subcutaneous injection once daily following plasma exchange. Treatment after the plasma exchange period: 11 mg subcutaneous injection once daily for 30 days beyond the last plasma exchange. If after initial treatment course, sign(s) of persistent underlying disease such as suppressed ADAMTS13 activity levels remain present, treatment may be extended for a maximum of 28 days. Discontinue CABLIVI if the patient experiences more than 2 recurrences of aTTP, while on CABLIVI. The first dose should be administered by a healthcare provider as a bolus intravenous injection. Administer subsequent doses subcutaneously in the abdomen. ( 2.3 ) 2.1 Recommended Dose and Schedules CABLIVI should be administered upon initiation of plasma exchange therapy. The recommended dose of CABLIVI is as follows: First day of treatment : 11 mg bolus intravenous injection at least 15 minutes prior to plasma exchange followed by an 11 mg subcutaneous injection after completion of plasma exchange on day 1. Subsequent days of treatment during daily plasma exchange : 11 mg subcutaneous injection once daily following plasma exchange. Treatment after plasma exchange period : 11 mg subcutaneous injection once daily continuing for 30 days following the last daily plasma exchange. If after initial treatment course, sign(s) of persistent underlying disease such as suppressed ADAMTS13 activity levels remain present, treatment may be extended for a maximum of 28 days. Discontinue CABLIVI if the patient experiences more than 2 recurrences of aTTP, while on CABLIVI. Avoid concomitant use of antiplatelet agents or anticoagulants [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ]. Missed Dose Administer the first dose of CABLIVI intravenously before the initial plasma exchange. If the administration of the first intravenous dose of CABLIVI is missed and plasma exchange is already administered, administer the first CABLIVI dose intravenously and administer the next dose subcutaneously on the following day according to the usual dosing schedule. If a dose of CABLIVI is missed during the plasma exchange period, it should be given as soon as possible. If a dose of CABLIVI is missed after the plasma exchange period, it can be administered within 12 hours of the scheduled time of administration. Beyond 12 hours, the missed dose should be skipped and the next daily dose administered according to the usual dosing schedule. 2.2 Discontinuation for Surgery and Other Interventions Withhold CABLIVI treatment 7 days prior to elective surgery, dental procedures, or other invasive interventions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] . 2.3 Reconstitution and Administration Instructions The first dose of CABLIVI should be administered by a healthcare provider as a bolus intravenous injection. Administer subsequent doses subcutaneously in the abdomen. Avoid injections around the navel. Do not administer consecutive injections in the same abdominal quadrant. Adult patients may self-inject, or adult caregivers may inject CABLIVI subcutaneously after proper instruction on the preparation and administration of CABLIVI, including aseptic technique [see Instructions for Use ] if a healthcare provider determines that it is appropriate. In pediatric patients 12 years of age and older, CABLIVI must be administered by a healthcare provider or an adult caregiver. If the carton was not stored at room temperature, allow the CABLIVI vial and diluent syringe to reach room temperature [25°C to 30°C (77°F to 86°F)] by holding them in your hands for 10 seconds. Do not use any other way to warm up the vial and syringe. Reconstitute CABLIVI before administration using the provided syringe containing 1 mL Sterile Water for Injection, USP, to yield an 11 mg/mL single-dose solution. Using aseptic technique throughout the preparation of the solution, attach the vial adapter to the vial containing CABLIVI. Remove the plastic cap from the syringe and attach it to the vial adapter by twisting it clockwise until it cannot twist any furth
Monitoring
- • 5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Hemorrhage: Serious and fatal bleeding can occur.
- • Risk of bleeding is increased in patients with underlying coagulopathies or on concomitant antiplatelet agents or anticoagulants.
- • If clinically significant bleeding occurs, interrupt treatment.
- • Withhold CABLIVI 7 days prior to elective surgery, dental procedures, or other invasive interventions.
Interaction Notes
- • 7 DRUG INTERACTIONS Concomitant use of anticoagulants or antiplatelet agents with CABLIVI may increase the risk of bleeding.
- • Monitor closely for bleeding with concomitant use.
- • ( 7 ) Concomitant Use of Anticoagulants, Thrombolytic Drugs, Heparin or Antiplatelet Agents Concomitant use of CABLIVI with any anticoagulant, thrombolytic drugs, heparin or antiplatelet agent may increase the risk of bleeding.
- • Avoid concomitant use when possible.
