POTELIGEO has a consistent safety profile with up to 5 years of data1

POTELIGEO has had no cumulative safety issues associated with long-term exposure1,a

  • No increase in rates of infusion reaction from primary analysis
  • No new safety or autoimmune concerns emerged with longer exposure

No new safety issues with exposure up to 5 years1

Primary analysis range of treatment exposure to POTELIGEO included >1 month to2:

45.3 months

Additional exposure during long-term safety follow-up after primary analysis1,a

Up to 14.3 months

48% of patients treated for at least 6 months2

23% of patients treated for at least 12 months2

Adverse reactions in ≥10% of patients with a ≥2% higher incidence within the POTELIGEO treatment arm2,3,b,c

  • Adverse reactions in the crossover arm were generally consistent with those in the POTELIGEO arm
  • Serious adverse reactions reported in >2% of patients randomized to POTELIGEO were pneumonia (5%), sepsis (4%), pyrexia (4%), and skin infection (3%)2

No specific laboratory test is required to prescribe POTELIGEO.

Discontinuation due to adverse reactions2,4

Chart showing discontinuation due to adverse reactions
  • aLong-term exposure was defined as >351 days of exposure to POTELIGEO.1
  • bAdverse reactions include groupings of individual preferred terms.2
  • cIncludes adverse reactions reported up to 90 days after randomized treatment.2
  • dPer study protocol, patients taking low-/intermediate-potency topical steroids or low-dose (≤20 mg) systemic steroids for at least 4 weeks could continue. However, initiation or increase in dose while on study was not permitted unless to treat an infusion reaction (systemic) or acute rash (topical).3
  • PO=by mouth

Being able to distinguish between treatment-related rash and disease progression is an important step in managing patients

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.
