NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology (NCCN Guidelines®) include mogamulizumab (POTELIGEO®) as a preferred treatment option in certain patients1

Preferred regimena

For use in stages:

  • IB-IIA MF
  • IIB MF—Limited tumor disease
  • IIB MF—Generalized tumor disease
  • III MF—Erythrodermic disease
  • IVA1 SS
  • IVA2 SS
Other recommended regimensa

For use in stages:

  • IVA2—Non-Sézary
  • IVB—Visceral/solid organ disease

NCCN Guidelines® goals of therapy for Mycosis Fungoides and Sézary Syndrome should be individualized but often include:

  • Minimizing risk of disease progression
  • Attaining symptom control
  • Minimizing risk of adverse effects
  • Absence of cumulative toxicity

Other NCCN Guidelines Treatment Considerations

Most treatments do not result in durable remissions off of treatment. Other than allogeneic HCT, therapies are not given with curative intent.

Generally, skin-directed therapies and systemic therapy regimens that can be tolerated for longer durations with lower rates of cumulative toxicity, less immunosuppression, and/or higher efficacy are used in earlier lines of therapy.

Therapies with lower side-effect profiles and an absence of cumulative toxicity are often given in an ongoing or maintenance fashion to improve and maintain disease control and quality of life.

  • aNCCN recommends systemic therapies in combination with skin-directed therapies in select cases. There is limited safety data for the use of TSEBT in combination with mogamulizumab.
  • NCCN makes no warranties of any kind whatsoever regarding their content, use or application and disclaims any responsibility for their application or use in any way.
  • HCT=hematopoietic stem cell transplant; NCCN=National Comprehensive Cancer Network; TSEBT=total skin electron beam therapy

Indication

POTELIGEO® (mogamulizumab-kpkc) injection for intravenous infusion is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory mycosis fungoides (MF) or Sézary syndrome (SS) after at least one prior systemic therapy.

Important Safety Information

Warnings and Precautions

Dermatologic toxicity: Monitor patients for rash throughout the course of treatment. For patients who experienced dermatologic toxicity in Trial 1, the median time to onset was 15 weeks, with 25% of cases occurring after 31 weeks. Interrupt POTELIGEO for moderate or severe rash (Grades 2 or 3). Permanently discontinue POTELIGEO for life-threatening (Grade 4) rash or for any Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) or toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN).

Infusion reactions: Most infusion reactions occur during or shortly after the first infusion. Infusion reactions can also occur with subsequent infusions. Monitor patients closely for signs and symptoms of infusion reactions and interrupt the infusion for any grade reaction and treat promptly. Permanently discontinue POTELIGEO for any life-threatening (Grade 4) infusion reaction.

Infections: Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of infection and treat promptly.

Autoimmune complications: Interrupt or permanently discontinue POTELIGEO as appropriate for suspected immune-mediated adverse reactions. Consider the benefit/risk of POTELIGEO in patients with a history of autoimmune disease.

Complications of allogeneic HSCT after POTELIGEO: Increased risks of transplant complications have been reported in patients who received allogeneic HSCT after POTELIGEO. Follow patients closely for early evidence of transplant-related complications.

Adverse Reactions

The most common adverse reactions (reported in ≥10% of patients) with POTELIGEO in the clinical trial were rash, including drug eruption (35%), infusion reaction (33%), fatigue (31%), diarrhea (28%), drug eruption (24%), upper respiratory tract infection (22%), musculoskeletal pain (22%), skin infection (19%), pyrexia (17%), edema (16%), nausea (16%), headache (14%), thrombocytopenia (14%), constipation (13%), anemia (12%), mucositis (12%), cough (11%), and hypertension (10%).

You are encouraged to report suspected adverse reactions to Kyowa Kirin, Inc. at 1-844-768-3544 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch.
