4.4 Special warnings and precautions for use
Immune-mediated pneumonitis: Immune-mediated pneumonitis or interstitial lung disease, defined as requiring use of systemic corticosteroids and with no clear alternate aetiology, occurred in patients receiving FIDURSI or FIDURSI in combination with tremelimumab (see section 4.8). Patients should be monitored for signs and symptoms of pneumonitis. Patients with suspected pneumonitis should be evaluated and the diagnosis should be confirmed with radiographic imaging and other infections and disease-related aetiologies (example tuberculosis) excluded and managed as recommended in section 4.2.
Pneumonitis and radiation pneumonitis: Radiation pneumonitis is frequently observed in patients receiving radiation therapy to the lung and the clinical presentation of pneumonitis and radiation pneumonitis is very similar. In the PACIFIC Study, in patients who had completed treatment with concurrent chemoradiation within 1 to 42 days prior to initiation of study treatment, pneumonitis including both immune-mediated pneumonitis and radiation pneumonitis, occurred in patients receiving FIDURSI Pneumonitis or radiation pneumonitis occurred in 161 (33,9 %) patients in the FIDURSI treated group and 58 (24,8 %) in the placebo group; including Grade 3 in 16 (3,4 %) patients on FIDURSI vs. 7 (3,0 %) patients on placebo and Grade 5 in 5 (1,1 %) patients on FIDURSI vs. 4 (1,7 %) patients on placebo. The median time to onset in the FIDURSI treated group was 55 days (range: 1-406 days) vs. 55 days (range: 1-255 days) in the placebo group. In the ADRIATIC Study, in patients who had completed treatment with chemoradiation within 1 to 42 days prior to initiation of study treatment, pneumonitis or radiation pneumonitis occurred in 100 (38,2 %) patients in the FIDURSI treated group and 80 (30,2 %) in the placebo group; including Grade 3 in 8 (3,1 %) patients on FIDURSI vs 6 (2,3 %) patients on placebo, and Grade 5 in 1 (0,4 %) patient on FIDURSI vs 0 patients on placebo.
Immune-mediated hepatitis: Immune-mediated hepatitis, defined as requiring use of systemic corticosteroids and with no clear alternate aetiology, occurred in patients receiving FIDURSI or FIDURSI in combination with tremelimumab (see section 4.8). Patients should be monitored for abnormal liver tests prior to and periodically during treatment with FIDURSI. Immune-mediated hepatitis should be managed as recommended in section 4.2.
Immune-mediated colitis: Immune-mediated colitis or diarrhoea, defined as requiring use of systemic corticosteroids and with no clear alternate aetiology, occurred in patients receiving FIDURSI or FIDURSI in combination with tremelimumab (see section 4.8). Patients should be monitored for signs and symptoms of colitis or diarrhoea and managed as recommended in section 4.2.
Immune-mediated endocrinopathies: Immune-mediated hypothyroidism hyperthyroidism/thyroiditis Immune-mediated hypothyroidism occurred in patients receiving FIDURSI or FIDURSI in combination with tremelimumab (see section 4.8). Patients should be monitored for abnormal thyroid function tests prior to and periodically during treatment and managed as recommended in section 4.2.
Immune-mediated Adrenal insufficiency: Immune-mediated adrenal insufficiency occurred in patients receiving FIDURSI or FIDURSI in combination with tremelimumab (see section 4.8). Patients should be monitored for clinical signs and symptoms of adrenal insufficiency. For symptomatic adrenal insufficiency, patients should be managed as recommended in section 4.2.
Immune-mediated Type 1 diabetes mellitus: Immune-mediated type 1 diabetes mellitus, which can present with diabetic ketoacidosis occurred in patients receiving FIDURSI or FIDURSI in combination with tremelimumab (see section 4.8). Patients should be monitored for clinical signs and symptoms of type 1 diabetes mellitus. For symptomatic type 1 diabetes mellitus, patients should be managed as recommended in section 4.2.
Immune-mediated Hypophysitis/hypopituitarism: Immune-mediated hypophysitis or hypopituitarism occurred in patients receiving FIDURSI or FIDURSI in combination with tremelimumab (see section 4.8). Patients should be monitored for clinical signs and symptoms of hypophysitis or hypopituitarism. For symptomatic hypophysitis or hypopituitarism, patients should be managed as recommended in section 4.2.
Immune-mediated nephritis: Immune-mediated nephritis, defined as requiring use of systemic corticosteroids and with no clear alternate aetiology, occurred in patients receiving FIDURSI or FIDURSI in combination with tremelimumab (see section 4.8). Patients should be monitored for abnormal renal function tests prior to and periodically during treatment with FIDURSI and managed as recommended in section 4.2.
Immune-mediated rash: Immune-mediated rash or dermatitis (including pemphigoid), defined as requiring use of systemic corticosteroids and with no clear alternate aetiology, occurred in patients receiving FIDURSI or FIDURSI in combination with tremelimumab (see section 4.8). Patients should be monitored for signs and symptoms of rash or dermatitis and managed as recommended in section 4.2.
Immune-mediated myocarditis: Immune-mediated myocarditis, which can be fatal, occurred in patients receiving FIDURSI or FIDURSI in combination with tremelimumab (see section 4.8). Patients should be monitored for signs and symptoms of immune-mediated myocarditis and managed as recommended in section 4.2.
Other immune mediated adverse reactions: Given the mechanism of action of FIDURSI or FIDURSI in combination with tremelimumab, other potential immune-mediated adverse reactions may occur. Patients should be monitored for signs and symptoms and managed as recommended in section 4.2. Other immune-mediated adverse reactions are myasthenia gravis, myositis, polymyositis, Guillain-Barru00c8 syndrome, immune thrombocytopenia, pancreatitis, immune-mediated arthritis, uveitis and encephalitis (see section 4.8).
Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV): Safety and efficacy in patients with HIV have not been established.
Infusion related reactions: Patients should be monitored for signs and symptoms of infusion related reactions. Severe infusion related reactions have been reported in patients receiving FIDURSI (see section 4.8).
4.5 Interaction with other medicines and other forms of interaction
FIDURSI is an immunoglobulin, therefore no formal pharmacokinetic (PK) medicine-medicine interaction studies have been conducted with FIDURSI. PK drug-drug interaction between durvalumab in combination with tremelimumab was assessed in the HIMALAYA study and no clinically meaningful PK drug-drug interaction was identified.
4.6 Fertility, pregnancy and lactation
Pregnancy
In animal reproduction studies, administration of FIDURSI to pregnant cynomolgus monkeys from the confirmation of pregnancy through delivery at exposure levels approximately 22 times higher than those observed at the clinical dose of 10 mg/kg of FIDURSI (based on AUC) was not associated with maternal toxicity or effects on embryofoetal development, pregnancy outcome or postnatal development. There are no data on the use of FIDURSI in pregnant women. Based on its mechanism of action, FIDURSI has the potential to impact maintenance of pregnancy and may cause foetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. Human IgG1 is known to cross the placental barrier. FIDURSI is not recommended during pregnancy and in women of childbearing potential not using effective contraception during treatment and for at least 3 months after the last dose.
Lactation
There is no information regarding the presence of FIDURSI in human milk, the absorption and effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. Human IgG is excreted in human milk. In animal reproduction studies, administration of FIDURSI to pregnant cynomolgus monkeys was associated with dose-related low level excretion of FIDURSI in breast milk. Because of the potential for adverse reactions in breastfed infants from FIDURSI, advise a lactating woman not to breastfeed during treatment and for at least 3 months after the last dose.
Fertility
There are no data on the potential effects of FIDURSI on fertility in humans. In repeat-dose toxicology studies with FIDURSI in sexually mature cynomolgus monkeys of up to 3 months duration, there were no notable effects on the male and female reproductive organs.
4.7 Effects on ability to drive and use machines
Based on its pharmacodynamic properties, FIDURSI is unlikely to affect the ability to drive and use machines. However, if patients experience adverse reactions affecting their ability to concentrate and react, they should be advised to use caution when driving or operating machinery.
4.8 Undesirable effects
Summary of the safety profile
The safety of FIDURSI as monotherapy is based on pooled data in 3006 patients from 9 studies across multiple tumour types the most frequent adverse reaction were cough, diarrhoea and rash. The safety of FIDURSI in combination with chemotherapy in patients with ES-SCLC is based on data in 265 patients from the CASPIAN study and was consistent with FIDURSI monotherapy and known chemotherapy safety profile. The safety of FIDURSI in combination with chemotherapy as neoadjuvant treatment in patients with resectable NSCLC, is based on data in 401 patients from the AEGEAN study and was consistent with known FIDURSI monotherapy and known chemotherapy safety profiles. The safety of FIDURSI in combination with chemotherapy in patients with BTC is based on data in 338 patients from the TOPAZ-1 study and was consistent with FIDURSI monotherapy and known chemotherapy safety profiles. The safety of FIDURSI in combination with tremelimumab and platinum-based chemotherapy treatment in patients with unresectable NSCLC is based on data in 330 patients from the POSEIDON study and was consistent with known FIDURSI + tremelimumab and known chemotherapy safety profiles. The safety of STRIDE treatment in patients with uHCC is based on data in 462 patients from the HCC pool and was consistent with known FIDURSI + tremelimumab safety profile. The safety of FIDURSI monotherapy in patients with LS-SCLC is based on data in 262 patients from the ADRIATIC study. The safety profile was consistent with FIDURSI monotherapy. The safety of FIDURSI in combination with chemotherapy in patients with MIBC is based on data in 530 patients from the NIAGARA study and was consistent with FIDURSI monotherapy and known chemotherapy safety profiles. The safety of FIDURSI in combination with FLOT chemotherapy as neoadjuvant and adjuvant treatment, followed by adjuvant FIDURSI monotherapy, in patients with GC/GEJC is based on data in 475 patients from the MATTERHORN study and was consistent with FIDURSI monotherapy and known FLOT chemotherapy safety profiles.
