`WARNING: NEUTROPENIA
`AND HYPERSENSITIVITY
`Neutropenic deaths have been
`reported. In order to monitor the
`occurrence of neutropenia,
`frequent blood cell counts
`should be performed on all
`patients receiving JEVTANA .

`JEVTANA  should not be given

`to patients with neutrophil
`counts of ≤1,500 cells/mm
`3
`Severe hypersensitivity reactions
`can occur and may include
`generalized rash/erythema,
`hypotension and bronchospasm.
`Severe hypersensitivity reactions
`require immediate
`discontinuation of the
`JEVTANA  infusion and

`administration of appropriate
`therapy. Patients should receive
`premedication
`JEVTANA  must not be given to

`patients who have a history of
`severe hypersensitivity reactions
`to JEVTANA  or to other drugs

`of patients with hormone­refractory
`metastatic prostate cancer
`(mHRPC) previously treated with a
`docetaxel­containing treatment
`regimen.

`
`®1
`
`Patients should be observed closely for hypersensitivity reactions, especially
`during the first and second infusions
`Severe hypersensitivity can occur and may include generalized rash/erythema,
`hypotension and bronchospasm. Discontinue JEVTANA  immediately if severe

`reactions occur and administer appropriate therapy
`Contraindicated if history of severe hypersensitivity reactions to JEVTANA  or to

`drugs formulated with polysorbate 80
`Nausea, vomiting and severe diarrhea, at times, may occur. Death related to
`diarrhea and electrolyte imbalance occurred in the randomized clinical trial.

`
`CONTRAINDICATIONS

`JEVTANA  should not be used in patients with neutrophil counts of ≤1,500/mm

`JEVTANA  is contraindicated in patients who have a history of severe

`
`WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
`Neutropenic deaths have been reported
`Monitoring of complete blood counts is essential on a weekly basis during cycle
`1 and before each treatment cycle thereafter so that the dose can be adjusted, if
`needed
`Monitor blood counts frequently to determine if initiation of G­CSF and/or dosage
`modification is needed
`Primary prophylaxis with G­CSF should be considered in patients with high­risk
`clinical features
`
`Severe hypersensitivity reactions can occur
`Premedicate with antihistamines, corticosteroids and H  antagonists
`2
`Patients should be observed closely for hypersensitivity reactions, especially
`during the first and second infusions
`Discontinue infusion immediately if hypersensitivity is observed and treat as
`indicated
`
`Mortality related to diarrhea has been reported
`Rehydrate and treat with anti­emetics and anti­diarrheals as needed
`If experiencing grade ≥3 diarrhea, dosage should be modified
`
`Nausea, vomiting and severe diarrhea, at times, may occur. Death related to
`diarrhea and electrolyte imbalance occurred in the randomized clinical trial.
`Intensive measures may be required for severe diarrhea and electrolyte imbalance
`Gastrointestinal (GI) hemorrhage and perforation, ileus, enterocolitis, neutropenic
`enterocolitis, including fatal outcome, have been reported
`Risk may be increased with neutropenia, age, steroid use, concomitant use of
`NSAIDs, anti­platelet therapy or anti­coagulants, and prior history of pelvic
`radiotherapy, adhesions, ulceration and GI bleeding
`Abdominal pain and tenderness, fever, persistent constipation, diarrhea, with or
`without neutropenia, may be early manifestations of serious GI toxicity and
`should be evaluated and treated promptly

`JEVTANA  treatment delay or discontinuation may be necessary
`
`Renal failure, including cases with fatal outcomes, has been reported. Identify
`cause and manage aggressively
`Patients ≥65 years of age were more likely to experience fatal outcomes not related
`to disease progression and certain adverse reactions, including neutropenia and
`febrile neutropenia. Monitor closely
`Patients with impaired hepatic function were excluded from the randomized clinical
`trial

`Hepatic impairment is likely to increase the JEVTANA  concentrations

`JEVTANA  should not be given to patients with hepatic impairment

`JEVTANA  can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman
`There are no adequate and well­controlled studies in pregnant women using

`JEVTANA
`Women of childbearing potential should be advised to avoid becoming pregnant

`during treatment with JEVTANA
`
`ADVERSE REACTIONS
`Deaths due to causes other than disease progression within 30 days of last study

`drug dose were reported in 18 (5%) JEVTANA ­treated patients. The most common

`fatal adverse reactions in JEVTANA ­treated patients were infections (n=5) and
`renal failure (n=4)
