IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

BOXED WARNINGS

Cytokine release syndrome (CRS), including serious or life-threatening reactions, can occur in patients receiving EPKINLY. Initiate treatment with the EPKINLY step-up dosage schedule to reduce the incidence and severity of CRS. Withhold EPKINLY until CRS resolves or permanently discontinue based on severity.
Immune effector cell–associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS), including life-threatening and fatal reactions, can occur with EPKINLY. Monitor patients for neurological signs or symptoms of ICANS during treatment. Withhold EPKINLY until ICANS resolves or permanently discontinue based on severity.

CRS

CRS occurred in 51% of patients with large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) in the clinical trial (37% grade 1, 17% grade 2, and 2.5% grade 3) and recurred in 16% of patients. Most events (92%) occurred during cycle 1; 9% of events occurred after the 0.16 mg dose (cycle 1, day 1), 16% after the 0.8 mg dose (cycle 1, day 8), 61% after the 48 mg dose (cycle 1, day 15), and 6% after the 48 mg dose (cycle 1, day 22). The median time to onset of CRS from the most recent administered dose across all doses was 24 hours (range: 0-10 days). The median time to onset after the first full 48 mg dose was 21 hours (range: 0-7 days). CRS resolved in 98% of patients; the median duration of CRS events was 2 days (range: 1-27 days).
CRS occurred in 49% of patients with FL receiving the recommended 3‑step up dosage schedule in the clinical trial (45% grade 1, 9% grade 2) and recurred in 23% of patients. Most events (88%) occurred during cycle 1; 14% of events occurred after the 0.16 mg dose (cycle 1, day 1), 7% after the 0.8 mg dose (cycle 1, day 8), 17% after the 3 mg dose (cycle 1, day 15), and 49% after the 48 mg dose (cycle 1, day 22). The median time to onset of CRS from the most recent administered dose across all doses was 59 hours (range: 0.1-7 days). The median time to onset after the first full 48 mg dose was 61 hours (range: 0.1-7 days). CRS resolved in 100% of patients; the median duration of CRS events was 2 days (range: 1-14 days).
In patients who experienced CRS, the signs and symptoms included pyrexia, hypotension, hypoxia, dyspnea, chills, and tachycardia. Concurrent neurological adverse reactions associated with CRS occurred in 2.5% of patients with LBCL (reactions included headache, confusional state, tremors, dizziness, and ataxia) and 4.7% of patients with FL (reactions included headache and dizziness).
Administer pretreatment medications to reduce the risk of CRS.
Patients with DLBCL or high-grade B-cell lymphoma should be hospitalized for 24 hours following administration of the first full 48 mg dose.
Monitor patients for potential CRS. At the first signs or symptoms of CRS, immediately evaluate patients for hospitalization, manage per current practice guidelines, and administer supportive care as appropriate.

ICANS

ICANS occurred in 6% of patients with LBCL in the clinical trial (4.5% grade 1, 1.3% grade 2, 0.6% fatal). Of the 10 ICANS events, 9 occurred within cycle 1 of treatment, with a median time to onset of 16.5 days (range: 8-141 days) from the start of treatment. Relative to the most recent administered dose, the median time to onset was 3 days (range: 1-13 days). The median duration of ICANS was 4 days (range: 0-8 days), with ICANS resolving in 90% of patients with supportive care.
ICANS occurred in 6% of patients with FL receiving the 2-step up dosage schedule in the clinical trial (3.9% grade 1, 2.4% grade 2). The median time to onset was 21.5 days (range: 14-66 days) from the start of treatment. Relative to the most recent administered dose, the median time to onset of ICANS was 3 days (range: 0.4-7 days). The median duration of ICANS was 2 days (range: 1-7 days), with ICANS resolving in 100% of patients.
The onset of ICANS can be concurrent with CRS, following resolution of CRS, or in the absence of CRS. Clinical manifestations of ICANS included, but were not limited to, confusional state, lethargy, tremor, dysgraphia, aphasia, and non-convulsive status epilepticus.
Monitor patients for potential ICANS. At the first signs or symptoms of ICANS, immediately evaluate patient, provide supportive therapy based on severity, and manage per current practice guidelines.

Infections

EPKINLY can cause serious and fatal infections. Serious infections, including opportunistic infections, were reported in 15% of patients with LBCL in the clinical trial (most common: 4.5% sepsis, 3.2% pneumonia). Fatal infections occurred in 1.3% of patients (1.3% COVID-19).
Serious infections, including opportunistic infections, were reported in 40% of patients with FL receiving the 2-step up dosage schedule in the clinical trial (most common: 20% COVID-19, 13% pneumonia, 3% urinary tract infections). Fatal infections occurred in 6% of patients (5% COVID-19, 0.8% pneumonia, 0.8% sepsis).
Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of infection prior to and during treatment and treat appropriately. Avoid administration in patients with active infections. Withhold or consider permanent discontinuation of EPKINLY based on severity. Prior to starting EPKINLY, provide Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) prophylaxis and consider prophylaxis against herpes virus.

Cytopenias

EPKINLY can cause serious or severe cytopenias. In the clinical trial of patients with LBCL, Grade 3 or 4 decreased neutrophils occurred in 32%, decreased hemoglobin in 12%, and decreased platelets in 12% of patients. Febrile neutropenia occurred in 2.5%.
In the clinical trial of patients with FL receiving the 2-step up dosage schedule, Grade 3 or 4 decreased neutrophils occurred in 30%, decreased hemoglobin in 10%, and decreased platelets in 8% of patients. Febrile neutropenia occurred in 3.1%.
Monitor complete blood counts throughout treatment. Based on severity of cytopenias, temporarily withhold or permanently discontinue EPKINLY. Consider prophylactic granulocyte colony-stimulating factor administration as applicable.

Embryo-Fetal Toxicity

EPKINLY may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with EPKINLY and for 4 months after the last dose. Verify pregnancy status in females of reproductive potential prior to initiating EPKINLY.

Adverse Reactions

DLBCL/HGBCL: Most common (≥20%) adverse reactions were CRS, fatigue, musculoskeletal pain, injection site reactions, pyrexia, abdominal pain, nausea, and diarrhea. Most common Grade 3 to 4 laboratory abnormalities (≥10%) were decreased lymphocytes, decreased neutrophils, decreased white blood cells, decreased hemoglobin, and decreased platelets.
FL: Most common (≥20%) adverse reactions were injection site reactions, CRS, COVID-19, fatigue, upper respiratory tract infection, musculoskeletal pain, rash, diarrhea, pyrexia, cough, and headache. The most common Grade 3 to 4 laboratory abnormalities (≥10%) were decreased lymphocytes, decreased neutrophils, decreased white blood cells, and decreased hemoglobin.

Use in Specific Populations

Lactation: Advise women not to breastfeed during treatment and for 4 months after the last dose of EPKINLY.
Geriatric Use: In patients with relapsed or refractory FL who received EPKINLY in the clinical trial, 52% were ≥65 years old, and 13% were ≥75 years old. A higher rate of fatal adverse reactions, primarily infections, including COVID-19, was observed in patients ≥65 years old compared to younger adult patients. No overall difference in efficacy was observed.

INDICATIONS

EPKINLY is indicated for the treatment of adults with:

relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), not otherwise specified (NOS), including DLBCL arising from indolent lymphoma, and high-grade B-cell lymphoma (HGBCL) after 2 or more lines of systemic therapy.
relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma (FL) after 2 or more lines of systemic therapy.

These indications are approved under accelerated approval based on response rate and durability of response. Continued approval for these indications may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in confirmatory trials.
