Clinical summary
Indications and usage 1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE TIVDAK ® is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer with disease progression on or after chemotherapy. TIVDAK is a tissue factor-directed antibody and microtubule inhibitor conjugate indicated for the treatment of adult patients with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer with disease progression on or after chemotherapy. ( 1 ) Dosage and administration 2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION • For intravenous infusion only. Do not administer TIVDAK as an intravenous push or bolus. Do not mix with, or administer as an infusion with, other medicinal products. ( 2.4 ) • The recommended dose of TIVDAK is 2 mg/kg (up to a maximum of 200 mg) given as an intravenous infusion over 30 minutes every 3 weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. ( 2.1 ) 2.1 Recommended Dosage The recommended dose of TIVDAK is 2 mg/kg (up to a maximum of 200 mg for patients ≥100 kg) administered as an intravenous infusion over 30 minutes every 3 weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. 2.2 Premedication and Required Eye Care Adhere to the following recommendations to reduce the risk of ocular adverse reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ]. • Ophthalmic exam by eye care provider: Conduct an ophthalmic exam prior to initiation of TIVDAK, prior to every cycle for the first nine cycles, and as clinically indicated. The ophthalmic exam should include visual acuity, slit lamp exam of the anterior segment of the eye, and an assessment of normal eye movement. • Topical corticosteroid eye drops: Instruct patients to administer one drop in each eye prior to each infusion and to continue to administer eye drops in each eye three times daily for 72 hours after each infusion. The initial prescription and all renewals of any corticosteroid medication should be made only after examination with a slit lamp. • Topical ocular vasoconstrictor drops: Administer in each eye immediately prior to each infusion of TIVDAK. • Cold packs: Use cooling eye pads during each infusion of TIVDAK. • Topical lubricating eye drops: Instruct patients to administer for the duration of therapy and for 30 days after the last dose of TIVDAK. • Contact lenses: Advise patients to avoid wearing contact lenses for the entire duration of therapy unless advised by their eye care provider. 2.3 Dosage Modifications for Adverse Reactions The recommended TIVDAK dose reduction schedule is provided in Table 1 . Table 1: Dosage Reduction Schedule TIVDAK Dose Level Starting dose 2 mg/kg (up to a maximum of 200 mg for patients ≥100 kg) First dose reduction 1.3 mg/kg (up to a maximum of 130 mg for patients ≥100 kg) Second dose reduction 0.9 mg/kg Permanently discontinue in patients who cannot tolerate 0.9 mg/kg (up to a maximum of 90 mg for patients ≥100 kg) The recommended dose modifications for adverse reactions are provided in Table 2 .

Boxed Warning
WARNING: OCULAR TOXICITY • TIVDAK can cause severe ocular toxicities resulting in changes in vision, including severe vision loss, and corneal ulceration. [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ]. • Conduct an ophthalmic exam, including an assessment of ocular symptoms, visual acuity, and slit lamp exam of the anterior segment of the eye prior to initiation of TIVDAK, prior to every cycle for the first nine cycles, and as clinically indicated. [see Dosage and Administration (2.2) and Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] . • Adhere to the required premedication and eye care before, during, and after infusion. [see Dosage and Administration (2.2) ]. • Withhold TIVDAK until improvement and resume, reduce the dose, or permanently discontinue, based on severity [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) , Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ]. WARNING: OCULAR TOXICITY See full prescribing information for complete boxed warning. • TIVDAK can cause severe ocular toxicities resulting in changes in vision, including severe vision loss and corneal ulceration. ( 5.1 ) • Conduct an ophthalmic exam, including an assessment of ocular symptoms, visual acuity, and slit lamp exam of the anterior segment of the eye prior to initiation of TIVDAK, prior to every cycle for the first nine cycles, and as clinically indicated.

Monitoring
- • 5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS • Peripheral neuropathy: Monitor patients for new or worsening peripheral neuropathy.
- • Withhold, reduce the dose, or permanently discontinue TIVDAK based on severity.
- • ( 2.3 , 5.2 ) • Hemorrhage: Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of hemorrhage.
- • Withhold, reduce the dose, or permanently discontinue TIVDAK based on severity.
Interaction Notes
- • 7 DRUG INTERACTIONS Strong CYP3A4 Inhibitors: Closely monitor for TIVDAK adverse reactions.
- • ( 7.1 ) 7.1 Effects of Other Drugs on TIVDAK Strong CYP3A4 Inhibitors MMAE is a CYP3A4 substrate.
- • Concomitant use of TIVDAK with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors may increase unconjugated MMAE exposure [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] , which may increase the risk of TIVDAK adverse reactions.
- • Closely monitor patients for adverse reactions of TIVDAK when used concomitantly with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors.
