Push the needle into the top opening until it is fully inserted into the Point-Lok^® device. This action will seal the needle tip and lock the needle firmly into the Point-Lok^® device. (see Figure 2 below)

After use, place the used syringe with needle protected in a suitable sharps container. Dispose of contaminated product in a safe manner according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, USA and Federal/State/Local regulations (EPA, OSHA) and health care facility guidelines or local equivalent.

Description of Camcevi

CAMCEVI is a sterile formulation of leuprolide mesylate for subcutaneous injection. CAMCEVI is designed to deliver approximately 42 mg of leuprolide over 6 months.

Leuprolide mesylate is a synthetic nonapeptide analog of naturally occurring GnRH and is a GnRH agonist. The analog possesses greater potency than the natural hormone. The chemical name is 5-oxo-Lprolyl-L-histidyl-L-tryptophyl-L-seryl-L-tyrosyl-D-leucyl-L-leucyl-L-arginyl-N-ethyl-L-prolinamide mesylate (salt) with the following structural formula. The pH of 50 mg/mL solution of leuprolide mesylate in water is approximately 5.7.

CAMCEVI is supplied as a kit with a pre-filled, single-dose, sterile syringe for subcutaneous injection. Each pre-filled syringe delivers 42 mg leuprolide (equivalent to approximately 48 mg leuprolide mesylate), poly(D, L-lactide) (184 mg) polymer and N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (136 mg).

CAMCEVI is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with advanced prostate cancer.

Dosage And Administration of Camcevi

Clinical Trial 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 an open-label, non-comparative clinical trial (FP01C13-001), patients with advanced prostate cancer received CAMCEVI administered subcutaneously at a dose of 42 mg on Day 0 and Day 168. Of 137 patients enrolled, 93% received both doses of CAMCEVI.

Serious adverse reactions occurred in 15% of patients who received CAMCEVI, including 1% of patients who experienced subdural hematoma. Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 2% of patients, including cerebrovascular accident (0.7%) and pulmonary embolism (0.7%).

The most common adverse reactions (≥10%) occurring during a median follow-up duration of 336 days were hot flush, hypertension, injection site reactions, upper respiratory tract infections, musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, and pain in extremity.

Table 1 summarizes the adverse reactions in FP01C-13-001.

Precautions of Camcevi

Tumor Flare

CAMCEVI, like other GnRH agonists, causes a transient increase in serum levels of testosterone during the first week of treatment, declining thereafter to baseline levels or below by the end of the second week of treatment. Transient worsening of symptoms, or the occurrence of additional signs and symptoms of prostate cancer, may develop during the first few weeks of CAMCEVI treatment. Patients treated with CAMCEVI may experience a temporary increase in bone pain, which can be managed symptomatically.

As with other GnRH agonists, cases of ureteral obstruction and spinal cord compression have been observed, which may contribute to paralysis with or without fatal complications.

Patients with metastatic vertebral lesions and/or with urinary tract obstruction should be closely observed during the first few weeks of therapy.

Hyperglycemia And Diabetes

Hyperglycemia and an increased risk of developing diabetes have been reported in men receiving GnRH agonists. Hyperglycemia may represent the development of diabetes mellitus or worsening of glycemic control in patients with diabetes. Monitor blood glucose and/or glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) periodically in patients receiving a GnRH agonist and manage with current practice for treatment of hyperglycemia or diabetes.

Cardiovascular Diseases

Increased risk of developing myocardial infarction, sudden cardiac death, and stroke has been reported in association with use of GnRH agonists in men. The risk appears low based on the reported odds ratios, and should be evaluated carefully along with cardiovascular risk factors when determining a treatment for patients with prostate cancer. Patients receiving a GnRH agonist should be monitored for symptoms and signs suggestive of development of cardiovascular disease and be managed according to current clinical practice.

QT/QTc Prolongation

Androgen deprivation therapy may prolong the QT/QTc interval. Providers should consider whether the benefits of androgen deprivation therapy outweigh the potential risks in patients with congenital long QT syndrome, congestive heart failure, frequent electrolyte abnormalities, and in patients taking drugs known to prolong the QT interval. Electrolyte abnormalities should be corrected. Consider periodic monitoring of electrocardiograms and electrolytes.

Convulsions

Convulsions have been reported in patients receiving GnRH agonists, like CAMCEVI [see ADVERSE REACTIONS]. Manage patients receiving a GnRH agonist who experience convulsions according to current clinical practice.

Laboratory Tests

Monitor serum levels of testosterone following injection of CAMCEVI. In the majority of patients treated with CAMCEVI, testosterone levels increased above baseline during the first week, and then declined thereafter to castration levels (<50 ng/dL) within 4 weeks [see Clinical Studies and ADVERSE REACTIONS].

Embryo-Fetal Toxicity

Based on findings in animal studies and mechanism of action, CAMCEVI can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. In animal developmental and reproductive toxicology studies, administration of a monthly formulation of leuprolide on day 6 of pregnancy (sustained exposure was expected throughout the period of organogenesis) caused adverse embryo-fetal toxicity in animals at doses less than the human dose based on body surface area using an estimated daily dose. Advise pregnant patients and females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to the fetus [see Use In Specific Populations, CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY].

Nonclinical Toxicology

Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment Of Fertility

Two-year carcinogenicity studies were conducted with leuprolide in rats and mice. In rats, a dose-related increase of benign pituitary hyperplasia and benign pituitary adenomas was noted at 24 months when the drug was administered subcutaneously at high daily doses (0.6 to 4 mg/kg). There was a significant but not dose-related increase of pancreatic islet-cell adenomas in females and of testicular interstitial cell adenomas in males (highest incidence in the low dose group). In mice, no pituitary abnormalities were observed at a dose as high as 60 mg/kg for 2 years. Patients have been treated with leuprolide for up to 3 years with doses as high as 10 mg/day and for 2 years with doses as high as 20 mg/day without demonstrable pituitary abnormalities.

Mutagenicity studies have been performed with leuprolide using bacterial and mammalian systems. These studies provided no evidence of mutagenic potential.

Leuprolide may reduce male and female fertility. Administration of leuprolide to male and female rats at doses of 0.024, 0.24, and 2.4 mg/kg as monthly depot formulation for up to 3 months (approximately as low as 1/30 of the human dose based on body surface area using an estimated daily dose in animals and humans) caused atrophy of the reproductive organs, and suppression of reproductive function. These changes were reversible upon cessation of treatment.

Use In Specific Populations

Pregnancy

Risk Summary

Based on findings in animal studies and mechanism of action, CAMCEVI can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY]. There are no available data in pregnant women to inform the drug-associated risk. In animal developmental and reproductive toxicology studies, administration of a monthly formulation of leuprolide on day 6 of pregnancy (sustained exposure was expected throughout the period of organogenesis) caused adverse embryo-fetal toxicity in animals at doses less than the human dose based on body surface area using an estimated daily dose (see data). Advise pregnant patients and females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to the fetus.

Data

Animal Data

Major fetal malformations were observed in developmental and reproductive toxicology studies in rabbits after a single administration of a monthly formulation of leuprolide administered on day 6 of pregnancy at test dosages of 0.00024, 0.0024, and 0.024 mg/kg (approximately 1/1500 to 1/15 the human dose based on body surface area using an estimated daily dose in animals and humans). Since a depot formulation was utilized in the study, a sustained exposure to leuprolide was expected throughout the period of organogenesis and to the end of gestation. Similar studies in rats did not demonstrate an increase in fetal malformations, however, there was increased fetal mortality and decreased fetal weights with the two higher doses of the monthly formulation of leuprolide in rabbits and with the highest dose in rats.

Lactation

Risk Summary

The safety and efficacy of CAMCEVI have not been established in females. There is no information regarding the presence of leuprolide in human milk, the effects on the breastfed child, or the effects on milk production. Because many drugs are excreted in human milk and because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in a breastfed child, a decision should be made to discontinue breastfeeding or discontinue the drug, taking into account the importance of the drug to the mother.

Females And Males Of Reproductive Potential

Infertility

Males

Based on findings in animals and mechanism of action, CAMCEVI may impair fertility in males of reproductive potential [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY, Nonclinical Toxicology].

Pediatric Use

The safety and efficacy of CAMCEVI in pediatric patients have not been established.

Geriatric Use

Of the 137 patients who received CAMCEVI in the FP01C-13-001 study, 74% were 65 years of age or older, while 37% were 75 years of age or older. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between these patients and younger patients.

No Information Provided

Contraindications

CAMCEVI is contraindicated in patients known to be hypersensitive to GnRH, GnRH agonist analogs, or any of the excipients in CAMCEVI. Anaphylactic reactions to GnRH agonist analogs have been reported in the medical literature.

Mechanism Of Action

Leuprolide, a GnRH agonist, acts as an inhibitor of gonadotropin secretion. Animal and human studies indicate that following an initial stimulation of gonadotropins, chronic administration of leuprolide results in suppression of ovarian and testicular steroidogenesis. This effect is reversible upon discontinuation of drug therapy.

In humans, subcutaneous administration of single daily doses of leuprolide result in an initial increase in circulating levels of LH and FSH, leading to a transient increase in levels of the gonadal steroids (testosterone and dihydrotestosterone in males). However, continuous daily administration of leuprolide results in decreased levels of LH and FSH. In males, testosterone is reduced to below castration levels. These decreases generally occur within 2 to 4 weeks after initiation of treatment, and castration levels of testosterone in prostatic cancer patients have been demonstrated for periods of up to 5 years.

Pharmacodynamics

Mean serum testosterone concentrations transiently increased, then fell to below castrate threshold levels (≤ 50 ng/dL) within 3 weeks following administration of the dose of leuprolide, and generally remained below castrate thresholds levels throughout treatment.

Pharmacokinetics

Leuprolide concentration is variable, exhibiting an initial rapid increase followed by a rapid decline over the first 3 days before reaching steady concentrations for the duration of the dosing interval. The mean serum leuprolide Cmax was 94.5 and 99 ng/mL following the first and second doses of CAMCEVI, respectively. The mean serum concentration was maintained at 0.497–2.57 and 0.507–2.39 ng/ml after Day 3 post the first and second doses, respectively. The mean AUC0-6 mon was 224 and 268 day.ng/mL following the first and second doses of CAMCEVI, respectively.

Absorption

The median Tmax of leuprolide was 3.2 and 2.1 hours following the first and second doses of CAMCEVI, respectively.

Distribution

The mean steady-state volume of distribution of leuprolide was 27 L following an intravenous bolus in healthy male volunteers. Protein binding of leuprolide ranged from 43% to 49% in vitro.

Elimination

The mean systemic clearance was 7.6 L/h and terminal elimination half-life of approximately 3 hours following an intravenous bolus of leuprolide in healthy male volunteers.

Metabolism

Administration of radiolabeled leuprolide was metabolized to smaller inactive peptides which may then be further catabolized.

Excretion

Excretion of leuprolide has not been evaluated with CAMCEVI.

Specific Populations

No clinically significant differences in the systemic exposure of leuprolide were observed based on age (51 to 88 years), race/ethnicity (White, Black, Asian), or body weight (54 to 134 kg). The effect of renal or hepatic impairment on the pharmacokinetics of leuprolide has not been evaluated.

Clinical Studies

The efficacy of CAMCEVI was evaluated in an open label, single arm, multinational study FP01C-13001 (NCT02234115) in patients with advanced prostate carcinoma who have a baseline morning serum testosterone level >150 ng/dL and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status ≤ 2. CAMCEVI was administered subcutaneously at a dose of 42 mg initially on Day 0 and on Week 24.

The population (n = 137) had a median age of 71 years (range 51 to 88) and was 90% White, 6% Black, and 4% Asian. Disease stage was distributed as follows: 23% metastatic (M1), 27% locally advanced (T3/4 NX M0 or any T N1 M0), 26% localized (T1 or T2 N0 M0), and 24% not classifiable. The median testosterone concentration at baseline was 440 ng/dL.

The major efficacy outcome measure was medical castration rate, defined as achieving and maintaining serum testosterone suppression to ≤ 50 ng/dL by Week 4 through Week 48 of treatment. Following the first injection of CAMCEVI, serum testosterone levels were suppressed to ≤ 50 ng/dL by Week 4 (+/-7 days) in 98.5% of the patients; and from Week 4 through Week 48 in 97.0% of patients (95% CI: 92.298.9) estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. The time course of percent change from baseline in testosterone suppression are shown in Figure 1. The percentage of patients with testosterone suppression to ≤ 20 ng/dL was 69.3% on Day 28.

Figure 1 CAMCEVI Mean (95% CI) Percentage Change from Baseline in Serum Testosterone Concentration Over Time (N =137)

In the clinical trial, PSA levels were monitored and were lowered on average by 51% after 4 weeks after administration of CAMCEVI, 83% after 3 months and remained suppressed throughout the 48 weeks of treatment. These PSA results should be interpreted with caution because of the heterogeneity of the patient population studied. No evidence has shown that the rapidity of PSA decline correlates with clinical benefit.
