Important Safety Information
This is not a complete list of all possible side effects. Contact your healthcare provider if you experience any unexpected symptoms. For serious or life-threatening side effects, seek emergency medical attention immediately.
6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling: Myelosuppression [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)] Renal Toxicity [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)] Most common (≥ 20%) adverse reactions, including laboratory abnormalities, were decreased lymphocytes, decreased hemoglobin, fatigue, dry mouth, decreased platelets, decreased estimated glomerular filtration rate, nausea, decreased neutrophils, decreased calcium, decreased sodium, increased aspartate aminotransferase, increased alkaline phosphatase, arthralgia, decreased appetite, increased potassium, constipation, and back pain.
( 6.1 ) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation at 1-888-669-6682 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch .
6.1 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 practice.
In the pooled safety population for the PSMAfore and VISION studies (N = 756), the most common (≥ 20%) adverse reactions, including laboratory abnormalities, were decreased lymphocytes (83%), decreased hemoglobin (65%), fatigue (49%), dry mouth (46%), decreased platelets (40%), decreased estimated glomerular filtration rate (37%), nausea (35%), decreased neutrophils (31%), decreased calcium (29%), decreased sodium (27%), increased aspartate aminotransferase (26%), increased alkaline phosphatase (24%), arthralgia (22%), decreased appetite (21%), increased potassium (21%), constipation (21%), and back pain (21%).
PSMAfore The safety of PLUVICTO was evaluated in the PSMAfore study in patients with progressive, PSMA-positive mCRPC previously treated with ARPI therapy, for whom it was considered appropriate to delay taxane-based chemotherapy by the investigator [see Clinical Studies (14.1)] .
Patients received at least one dose of either PLUVICTO 7.4 GBq (200 mCi) administered every 6 weeks (N = 227) or a change in ARPI (N = 232).
The median duration of exposure to PLUVICTO was 8.4 months (range, 0.4 to 11.6), and the median number of doses of PLUVICTO received was 6 (range, 1 to 6).
The median cumulative administered activity of PLUVICTO was 42.4 GBq (range, 7.0 to 45.4).
Serious adverse reactions occurred in 20% of patients who received PLUVICTO.
Serious adverse reactions in > 1% of patients who received PLUVICTO included anemia (1.8%), urinary tract infection (1.8%), hemorrhage (1.3%), and sepsis (1.3%).
5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Risk From Radiation Exposure : Minimize radiation exposure during and after treatment with PLUVICTO consistent with institutional good radiation safety practices and patient treatment procedures.
Ensure patients increase oral fluid intake and advise patients to void as often as possible to reduce bladder radiation.
( 5.1 ) Myelosuppression : Perform complete blood counts.
Withhold, reduce dose, or permanently discontinue PLUVICTO based on severity.
( 2.4 , 5.2 ) Renal Toxicity : Advise patients to remain well hydrated and to urinate frequently.
Like all medications, Pluvicto can cause side effects. However, not everyone who takes this medication will experience them. Many side effects are dose-dependent and may improve as your body adjusts to the medication. Others may require dose adjustment or medical attention.
