CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY SECTION.
12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY. 12.1 Mechanism of Action. Mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC). The antibody is chimeric IgG1 directed against folate receptor alpha (FR). The small molecule, DM4, is microtubule inhibitor attached to the antibody via cleavable linker. Upon binding to FR, mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx is internalized followed by intracellular release of DM4 via proteolytic cleavage. DM4 disrupts the microtubule network within the cell, resulting in cell cycle arrest and apoptotic cell death.. 12.2 Pharmacodynamics. Exposure-Response RelationshipsAn exposure-response relationship between mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx and overall response rates was observed. Higher incidence of Grade >=2 ocular adverse reactions and Grade >=2 peripheral neuropathy occurred with increasing mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx exposure.. Cardiac ElectrophysiologyAt the approved recommended dose, ELAHERE did not cause large mean increases (>10 msec) in the QTc interval.. 12.3 Pharmacokinetics. The pharmacokinetics were characterized after patients were administered mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx 0.161 mg/kg to 8.71 mg/kg adjusted ideal body weight (AIBW) dosages, (0.0268 times to 1.45 times the approved recommended dosage of mg/kg AIBW), unless otherwise noted.Table summarizes the exposure parameters of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx, unconjugated DM4, and its metabolite S-methyl-DM4 following administration after the first cycle (3-weeks) of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx mg/kg to patients. Peak mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx concentrations were observed near the end of intravenous infusion, while peak unconjugated DM4 concentrations were observed on the second day after administration of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx, and the peak S-methyl-DM4 concentrations were observed approximately days after administration of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx. Steady state concentrations of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx, DM4, and S-methyl-DM4 were reached after treatment cycle. Accumulation of the mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx, DM4, and S-methyl-DM4 was minimal following repeat administration of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx.Table 6: Exposure Parameters of Mirvetuximab Soravtansine-gynx, Unconjugated DM4, and S-methyl DM4 After First Treatment Cycle of mg/kg of Mirvetuximab Soravtansine-gynxMirvetuximab Soravtansine-gynxMean (+-SD)Unconjugated DM4Mean (+-SD)S-methyl-DM4Mean (+-SD)Cmax maximum concentration, AUCtau area under the concentration vs. time curve over the dosing interval (21 days).Cmax 137.3 (+-62.3) ug/mL4.11 (+-2.29) ng/mL6.98 (+-6.79) ng/mLAUCtau 20.65 (+-6.84) hmg/mL530 (+-245) hng/mL1848 (+-1585) hng/mL. DistributionThe mean (+-SD) steady state volume of distribution of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx was 2.63 (+-2.98) L.Human plasma protein binding of DM4 and S-methyl DM4 was >99%, in vitro.. EliminationTotal plasma clearance (geometric mean [CV%]) of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx was 18.9 mL/hour (51.9%). The geometric mean terminal phase half-life of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx after the first dose was 4.8 days leading to steady state at approximately 24 days. For the unconjugated DM4, the total plasma clearance (geometric mean [CV%]) was 13.8 L/hour (31.1%) and the geometric mean terminal phase half-life was 2.8 days. For S-methyl-DM4, the total plasma clearance (geometric mean [CV%]) was 4.3 L/hour (63.6%) and the geometric mean terminal phase half-life was 5.0 days.. MetabolismThe monoclonal antibody portion of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx is expected to be metabolized into small peptides by catabolic pathways. Unconjugated DM4 and S-methyl-DM4 undergo metabolism by CYP3A4. In human plasma, DM4 and S-methyl DM4 were identified as the main circulating metabolites, accounting for approximately 0.4% and 1.4% of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx AUCs, respectively.. ExcretionS-methyl DM4 and DM4-sulfo-SPDB-lysine were detected in urine within 24 hours of infusion as the main metabolites.. Specific PopulationsNo clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx were observed based on age (34 to 89 years), body weight (36 to 136 kg), mild hepatic impairment (total bilirubin <=ULN and any AST >ULN or total bilirubin >1 to 1.5 times ULN and any AST), or mild to moderate renal impairment (CLcr >=30 and <90 mL/min).The pharmacokinetics of ELAHERE in patients with moderate to severe hepatic impairment (total bilirubin >1.5 ULN with any AST) or severe renal impairment (CLcr 15 to 30 mL/min) is unknown.. Drug Interaction Studies. Clinical studies and model informed approachesNo clinical studies evaluating the drug-drug interaction potential of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx have been conducted.However, in clinical trials, there were no differences in exposure between patients who received concomitant weak or moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors or P-glycoprotein (P-gp) inhibitors and those who did not.. In Vitro Studies. Cytochrome P450 (CYP) Enzymes: Unconjugated DM4 is time-dependent inhibitor of CYP3A4. Unconjugated DM4 and S-methyl DM4 are not direct inhibitors of CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, or CYP3A. DM4 and S-methyl DM4 are not inducers of CYP1A2, CYP2B6, or CYP3A4.. Transporter Systems: Unconjugated DM4 and S-methyl DM4 are substrates of P-gp but are not inhibitors of P-gp.. 12.6 Immunogenicity. As with all therapeutic proteins, there is potential for immunogenicity. The detection of antibody formation against mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx is highly dependent on the sensitivity and specificity of the assay. The observed incidence of anti-drug antibodies (including neutralizing antibody) is highly dependent on the sensitivity and specificity of the assay. Differences in assay methods preclude meaningful comparisons of the incidence of anti-drug antibodies in the studies described below with the incidence of anti-drug antibodies to mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx in other studies.With median duration of treatment of 4.3 months in Studies 0417, 0401, and 0403, total of 55/423 (13%) ovarian cancer patients treated with mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx at mg/kg AIBW had at least post-baseline positive sample for anti-mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx antibodies. Of those patients, 28/423 patients (7%) had developed treatment-emergent ADA and 3/423 patients (0.7%) had treatment-enhanced ADA. Neutralizing antibodies were detected in 24/423 (6%) of patients.Because of the low occurrence of anti-mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx antibodies, the effect of these antibodies on the pharmacokinetics, efficacy, and/or safety of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx is unknown.

CLINICAL STUDIES SECTION.
14 CLINICAL STUDIES. The efficacy of ELAHERE was evaluated in Study 0417 (NCT04296890), single-arm trial of patients with FR positive, platinum-resistant epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer (n=106). Patients were permitted to receive up to three prior lines of systemic therapy. All patients were required to have received prior bevacizumab. The trial enrolled patients whose tumors were positive for FR expression as determined by the VENTANA FOLR1 (FOLR1-2.1) RxDx Assay. Patients were excluded if they had corneal disorders, ocular conditions requiring ongoing treatment, Grade >1 peripheral neuropathy, or noninfectious interstitial lung disease.Patients received ELAHERE mg/kg (based on adjusted ideal body weight) as an intravenous infusion every weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Tumor response assessments occurred every weeks for the first 36 weeks and every 12 weeks thereafter.The major efficacy outcome measures were investigator-assessed overall response rate (ORR) and duration of response (DOR) evaluated according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST), version 1.1.The efficacy evaluable population included 104 patients with platinum-resistant disease, who had measurable disease, and received at least one dose of ELAHERE. In these 104 patients, the median age was 62 years (range: 35 to 85); 96% were White, 2% were Asian, and 2% did not have race reported. Two percent of patients were Hispanic or Latino. All patients had an ECOG PS of (57%) or (43%). Ten percent of patients had received prior line of systemic therapy, 39% of patients had received prior lines of systemic therapy, and 50% of patients had received prior lines of systemic therapy. All patients had received prior bevacizumab and 47% had received prior PARP inhibitor.Efficacy results for Study 0417 are summarized in Table 7.Table 7: Efficacy Results in Study 0417ELAHERE(N=104)Confirmed Overall Response RateInvestigator assessment.(95% CI)31.7%(22.9, 41.6) Complete response rate4.8% Partial response rate26.9%Duration of ResponseN=33 Median duration of response, months (95% CI)6.9(5.6, 9.7)Response assessment results using independent radiology review were consistent with investigator assessment.

IMMUNOGENICITY.
12.6 Immunogenicity. As with all therapeutic proteins, there is potential for immunogenicity. The detection of antibody formation against mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx is highly dependent on the sensitivity and specificity of the assay. The observed incidence of anti-drug antibodies (including neutralizing antibody) is highly dependent on the sensitivity and specificity of the assay. Differences in assay methods preclude meaningful comparisons of the incidence of anti-drug antibodies in the studies described below with the incidence of anti-drug antibodies to mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx in other studies.With median duration of treatment of 4.3 months in Studies 0417, 0401, and 0403, total of 55/423 (13%) ovarian cancer patients treated with mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx at mg/kg AIBW had at least post-baseline positive sample for anti-mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx antibodies. Of those patients, 28/423 patients (7%) had developed treatment-emergent ADA and 3/423 patients (0.7%) had treatment-enhanced ADA. Neutralizing antibodies were detected in 24/423 (6%) of patients.Because of the low occurrence of anti-mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx antibodies, the effect of these antibodies on the pharmacokinetics, efficacy, and/or safety of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx is unknown.

MECHANISM OF ACTION SECTION.
12.1 Mechanism of Action. Mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC). The antibody is chimeric IgG1 directed against folate receptor alpha (FR). The small molecule, DM4, is microtubule inhibitor attached to the antibody via cleavable linker. Upon binding to FR, mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx is internalized followed by intracellular release of DM4 via proteolytic cleavage. DM4 disrupts the microtubule network within the cell, resulting in cell cycle arrest and apoptotic cell death.

PHARMACOKINETICS SECTION.
12.3 Pharmacokinetics. The pharmacokinetics were characterized after patients were administered mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx 0.161 mg/kg to 8.71 mg/kg adjusted ideal body weight (AIBW) dosages, (0.0268 times to 1.45 times the approved recommended dosage of mg/kg AIBW), unless otherwise noted.Table summarizes the exposure parameters of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx, unconjugated DM4, and its metabolite S-methyl-DM4 following administration after the first cycle (3-weeks) of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx mg/kg to patients. Peak mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx concentrations were observed near the end of intravenous infusion, while peak unconjugated DM4 concentrations were observed on the second day after administration of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx, and the peak S-methyl-DM4 concentrations were observed approximately days after administration of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx. Steady state concentrations of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx, DM4, and S-methyl-DM4 were reached after treatment cycle. Accumulation of the mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx, DM4, and S-methyl-DM4 was minimal following repeat administration of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx.Table 6: Exposure Parameters of Mirvetuximab Soravtansine-gynx, Unconjugated DM4, and S-methyl DM4 After First Treatment Cycle of mg/kg of Mirvetuximab Soravtansine-gynxMirvetuximab Soravtansine-gynxMean (+-SD)Unconjugated DM4Mean (+-SD)S-methyl-DM4Mean (+-SD)Cmax maximum concentration, AUCtau area under the concentration vs. time curve over the dosing interval (21 days).Cmax 137.3 (+-62.3) ug/mL4.11 (+-2.29) ng/mL6.98 (+-6.79) ng/mLAUCtau 20.65 (+-6.84) hmg/mL530 (+-245) hng/mL1848 (+-1585) hng/mL. DistributionThe mean (+-SD) steady state volume of distribution of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx was 2.63 (+-2.98) L.Human plasma protein binding of DM4 and S-methyl DM4 was >99%, in vitro.. EliminationTotal plasma clearance (geometric mean [CV%]) of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx was 18.9 mL/hour (51.9%). The geometric mean terminal phase half-life of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx after the first dose was 4.8 days leading to steady state at approximately 24 days. For the unconjugated DM4, the total plasma clearance (geometric mean [CV%]) was 13.8 L/hour (31.1%) and the geometric mean terminal phase half-life was 2.8 days. For S-methyl-DM4, the total plasma clearance (geometric mean [CV%]) was 4.3 L/hour (63.6%) and the geometric mean terminal phase half-life was 5.0 days.. MetabolismThe monoclonal antibody portion of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx is expected to be metabolized into small peptides by catabolic pathways. Unconjugated DM4 and S-methyl-DM4 undergo metabolism by CYP3A4. In human plasma, DM4 and S-methyl DM4 were identified as the main circulating metabolites, accounting for approximately 0.4% and 1.4% of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx AUCs, respectively.. ExcretionS-methyl DM4 and DM4-sulfo-SPDB-lysine were detected in urine within 24 hours of infusion as the main metabolites.. Specific PopulationsNo clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx were observed based on age (34 to 89 years), body weight (36 to 136 kg), mild hepatic impairment (total bilirubin <=ULN and any AST >ULN or total bilirubin >1 to 1.5 times ULN and any AST), or mild to moderate renal impairment (CLcr >=30 and <90 mL/min).The pharmacokinetics of ELAHERE in patients with moderate to severe hepatic impairment (total bilirubin >1.5 ULN with any AST) or severe renal impairment (CLcr 15 to 30 mL/min) is unknown.. Drug Interaction Studies. Clinical studies and model informed approachesNo clinical studies evaluating the drug-drug interaction potential of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx have been conducted.However, in clinical trials, there were no differences in exposure between patients who received concomitant weak or moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors or P-glycoprotein (P-gp) inhibitors and those who did not.. In Vitro Studies. Cytochrome P450 (CYP) Enzymes: Unconjugated DM4 is time-dependent inhibitor of CYP3A4. Unconjugated DM4 and S-methyl DM4 are not direct inhibitors of CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, or CYP3A. DM4 and S-methyl DM4 are not inducers of CYP1A2, CYP2B6, or CYP3A4.. Transporter Systems: Unconjugated DM4 and S-methyl DM4 are substrates of P-gp but are not inhibitors of P-gp.

PREGNANCY SECTION.
8.1 Pregnancy. Risk SummaryBased on its mechanism of action, ELAHERE can cause embryo-fetal harm when administered to pregnant woman because it contains genotoxic compound (DM4) and affects actively dividing cells [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.1), Nonclinical Toxicology (13.1)]. Human immunoglobulin (IgG) is known to cross the placental barrier; therefore, ELAHERE has the potential to be transmitted from the mother to the developing fetus. There are no available human data on ELAHERE use in pregnant women to inform drug-associated risk. No reproductive or developmental animal toxicity studies were conducted with mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx. Advise patients of the potential risk to fetus.The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2-4% and 15-20%, respectively.. Data. Animal Data: No reproductive or developmental animal toxicity studies have been conducted with mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx. The cytotoxic component of ELAHERE, DM4, disrupts microtubule function, is genotoxic, and can be toxic to actively dividing cells, suggesting it has the potential to cause embryotoxicity and teratogenicity.

USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS SECTION.
8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS. Lactation: Advise not to breastfeed. (8.2)Moderate or severe hepatic impairment: Avoid use. (8.7). Lactation: Advise not to breastfeed. (8.2). Moderate or severe hepatic impairment: Avoid use. (8.7). 8.1 Pregnancy. Risk SummaryBased on its mechanism of action, ELAHERE can cause embryo-fetal harm when administered to pregnant woman because it contains genotoxic compound (DM4) and affects actively dividing cells [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.1), Nonclinical Toxicology (13.1)]. Human immunoglobulin (IgG) is known to cross the placental barrier; therefore, ELAHERE has the potential to be transmitted from the mother to the developing fetus. There are no available human data on ELAHERE use in pregnant women to inform drug-associated risk. No reproductive or developmental animal toxicity studies were conducted with mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx. Advise patients of the potential risk to fetus.The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2-4% and 15-20%, respectively.. Data. Animal Data: No reproductive or developmental animal toxicity studies have been conducted with mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx. The cytotoxic component of ELAHERE, DM4, disrupts microtubule function, is genotoxic, and can be toxic to actively dividing cells, suggesting it has the potential to cause embryotoxicity and teratogenicity.. 8.2 Lactation. Risk SummaryThere are no data on the presence of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx in human milk or the effects on the breastfed child or milk production. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in breastfed child, advise women not to breastfeed during treatment with ELAHERE and for month after the last dose.. 8.3 Females and Males of Reproductive Potential. ELAHERE can cause embryo-fetal harm when administered to pregnant woman [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1)].. Pregnancy TestingVerify pregnancy status in females of reproductive potential prior to initiating ELAHERE.. Contraception. Females: Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with ELAHERE and for months after the last dose.. 8.4 Pediatric Use. Safety and effectiveness of ELAHERE have not been established in pediatric patients.. 8.5 Geriatric Use. Of the 106 patients who were treated in Study 0417, 44% of patients were >=65 years old. Grade >=3 adverse reactions occurred in 49% of patients >=65 years and in 51% <65 years. No clinically meaningful differences in efficacy or safety were observed between patients >=65 years of age compared to younger patients.Population pharmacokinetic analysis indicates that age does not have clinically meaningful effect on the pharmacokinetics of ELAHERE [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].. 8.6 Renal Impairment. No dosage adjustment of ELAHERE is recommended for patients with mild to moderate renal impairment (CLcr 30 to 90 mL/min). The effect of severe renal impairment (CLcr 15 to 30 mL/min) or end-stage renal disease on ELAHERE is unknown [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].. 8.7 Hepatic Impairment. Avoid use of ELAHERE in patients with moderate or severe hepatic impairment (total bilirubin >1.5 ULN).No dosage adjustment of ELAHERE is recommended for patients with mild hepatic impairment (total bilirubin <=ULN and AST >ULN or total bilirubin >1 to 1.5 times ULN and any AST) [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS SECTION.
5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS. Pneumonitis: Withhold ELAHERE for persistent or recurrent Grade pneumonitis and consider dose reduction. Permanently discontinue ELAHERE for Grade or pneumonitis. (2.4, 5.2)Peripheral Neuropathy: Monitor patients for new or worsening peripheral neuropathy. Withhold dosage, dose reduce, or permanently discontinue ELAHERE based on the severity of peripheral neuropathy. (2.4, 5.3)Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: ELAHERE can cause fetal harm. Advise of the potential risk to fetus and to use effective contraception. (5.4, 8.1, 8.3). Pneumonitis: Withhold ELAHERE for persistent or recurrent Grade pneumonitis and consider dose reduction. Permanently discontinue ELAHERE for Grade or pneumonitis. (2.4, 5.2). Peripheral Neuropathy: Monitor patients for new or worsening peripheral neuropathy. Withhold dosage, dose reduce, or permanently discontinue ELAHERE based on the severity of peripheral neuropathy. (2.4, 5.3). Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: ELAHERE can cause fetal harm. Advise of the potential risk to fetus and to use effective contraception. (5.4, 8.1, 8.3). 5.1 Ocular Disorders. ELAHERE can cause severe ocular adverse reactions, including visual impairment, keratopathy (corneal disorders), dry eye, photophobia, eye pain, and uveitis.Ocular adverse reactions occurred in 61% of patients with ovarian cancer treated with ELAHERE. Nine percent (9%) of patients experienced Grade ocular adverse reactions, including visual impairment, keratopathy/keratitis (corneal disorders), dry eye, photophobia, and eye pain; and one patient (0.2%) experienced Grade keratopathy. The most common (>=5%) ocular adverse reactions were visual impairment (49%), keratopathy (36%), dry eye (26%), cataract (15%), photophobia (13%), and eye pain (12%) [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)].The median time to onset for first ocular adverse reaction was 1.2 months (range: 0.03 to 12.9). Of the patients who experienced ocular events, 49% had complete resolution and 39% had partial improvement (defined as decrease in severity by one or more grades from the worst grade) at last follow up. Ocular adverse reactions led to permanent discontinuation of ELAHERE in 0.6% of patients.Premedication and use of lubricating and ophthalmic topical steroid eye drops during treatment with ELAHERE are recommended [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)]. Advise patients to avoid use of contact lenses during treatment with ELAHERE unless directed by healthcare provider.Refer patients to an eye care professional for an ophthalmic exam including visual acuity and slit lamp exam prior to treatment initiation, every other cycle for the first cycles, and as clinically indicated. Promptly refer patients to an eye care professional for any new or worsening ocular signs and symptoms.Monitor for ocular toxicity and withhold, reduce, or permanently discontinue ELAHERE based on severity and persistence of ocular adverse reactions. [see Dosage and Administration (2.4)]. 5.2 Pneumonitis. Severe, life-threatening, or fatal interstitial lung disease (ILD), including pneumonitis, can occur in patients treated with ELAHERE.Pneumonitis occurred in 10% of patients treated with ELAHERE, including 0.8% with Grade events, and patient (0.2%) with Grade event. One patient (0.2%) died due to respiratory failure in the setting of pneumonitis and lung metastases. Pneumonitis resulted in ELAHERE dose reduction in 1%, dose interruptions in 3%, and permanent discontinuation in 3% of patients.Monitor patients for pulmonary signs and symptoms of pneumonitis, which may include hypoxia, cough, dyspnea, or interstitial infiltrates on radiologic exams. Infectious, neoplastic, and other causes for such symptoms should be excluded through appropriate investigations. Withhold ELAHERE for patients who develop persistent or recurrent Grade pneumonitis until symptoms resolve to <= Grade and consider dose reduction. Permanently discontinue ELAHERE in all patients with Grade or pneumonitis [see Dosage and Administration (2.4)]. Patients who are asymptomatic may continue dosing of ELAHERE with close monitoring.. 5.3 Peripheral Neuropathy. Peripheral neuropathy occurred in 36% of patients with ovarian cancer treated with ELAHERE across clinical trials; 2% of patients experienced Grade peripheral neuropathy. Peripheral neuropathy adverse reactions included peripheral neuropathy (19%), peripheral sensory neuropathy (9%), paraesthesia (6%), neurotoxicity (3%), hypoaesthesia (2%), peripheral motor neuropathy (1%), neuralgia (0.4%), polyneuropathy (0.2%) and oral hypoesthesia (0.2%).The median time to onset of peripheral neuropathy was 1.3 months (range 0.03 to 29.1). Of the patients who experienced peripheral neuropathy, 28% had complete resolution and 13% had partial improvement (defined as decrease in severity by one or more grades from the worst grade) at last follow up. Peripheral neuropathy led to discontinuation of ELAHERE in 0.4% of patients.Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of neuropathy, such as paresthesia, tingling or burning sensation, neuropathic pain, muscle weakness, or dysesthesia. For patients experiencing new or worsening peripheral neuropathy, withhold dosage, dose reduce, or permanently discontinue ELAHERE based on the severity of peripheral neuropathy [see Dosage and Administration (2.4)]. 5.4 Embryo-Fetal Toxicity. Based on its mechanism of action, ELAHERE can cause embryo-fetal harm when administered to pregnant woman because it contains genotoxic compound (DM4) and affects actively dividing cells.Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with ELAHERE and for months after the last dose [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1, 8.3)].
