If the adverse reaction takes more than 14 days to resolve, discontinue BLINCYTO permanently. Grade 4 Consider discontinuing BLINCYTO permanently. 2.4 Preparation It is very important that the instructions for preparation (including admixing) and administration provided in this section are strictly followed to minimize medication errors (including underdose and overdose) [see Warnings and Precautions (5.10) ] . BLINCYTO can be infused over 24 hours (preservative-free), 48 hours (preservative-free), or 7 days (with preservative). The choice between these options for the infusion duration should be made by the treating healthcare provider considering the frequency of the infusion bag changes and the weight of the patient. For preparation, reconstitution, and administration of BLINCYTO: See Section 2.5 for infusion over 24 hours or 48 hours. See Section 2.6 for infusion over 7 days using Bacteriostatic 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP (containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol). Call 1-800-77-AMGEN (1-800-772-6436) if you have questions about the reconstitution and preparation of BLINCYTO. 2.4.1 Aseptic Preparation Strictly observe aseptic technique when preparing the solution for infusion since BLINCYTO vials do not contain antimicrobial preservatives. To prevent accidental contamination, prepare BLINCYTO according to aseptic standards, including but not limited to: Prepare BLINCYTO in a USP <797> compliant facility. Prepare BLINCYTO in an ISO Class 5 laminar flow hood or better. Ensure that the admixing area has appropriate environmental specifications, confirmed by periodic monitoring. Ensure that personnel are appropriately trained in aseptic manipulations and admixing of oncology drugs. Ensure that personnel wear appropriate protective clothing and gloves. Ensure that gloves and surfaces are disinfected. 2.4.2 Package Content 1 package BLINCYTO includes 1 vial of BLINCYTO and 1 vial of IV Solution Stabilizer. Do not use IV Solution Stabilizer for reconstitution of BLINCYTO. IV Solution Stabilizer is provided with the BLINCYTO package and is used to coat the intravenous bag prior to addition of reconstituted BLINCYTO to prevent adhesion of BLINCYTO to intravenous bags and intravenous tubing. More than 1 package of BLINCYTO may be needed to prepare the recommended dose. 2.4.3 Incompatibility Information BLINCYTO is incompatible with di-ethylhexylphthalate (DEHP) due to the possibility of particle formation, leading to a cloudy solution. Use polyolefin, DEHP-free PVC, or ethyl vinyl acetate (EVA) infusion bags/pump cassettes. Use polyolefin, DEHP-free PVC, or EVA intravenous tubing sets. 2.5 Preparation and Administration of BLINCYTO as a 24-Hour or 48-Hour Infusion Reconstitute BLINCYTO with preservative-free Sterile Water for Injection, USP. Do not reconstitute BLINCYTO vials with the IV Solution Stabilizer . To prime the intravenous tubing, use only the solution in the bag containing the FINAL prepared BLINCYTO solution for infusion. Do not prime with 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP. 2.5.1 Reconstitution of BLINCYTO for 24-Hour or 48-Hour Infusion Determine the number of BLINCYTO vials needed for a dose and infusion duration. Reconstitute each BLINCYTO vial with 3 mL of preservative-free Sterile Water for Injection, USP by directing the water along the walls of the BLINCYTO vial and not directly on the lyophilized powder. The resulting concentration per BLINCYTO vial is 12.5 mcg/mL. Do not reconstitute BLINCYTO vials with IV Solution Stabilizer. Gently swirl contents to avoid excess foaming. Do not shake. Visually inspect the reconstituted solution for particulate matter and discoloration during reconstitution and prior to infusion. The resulting solution should be clear to slightly opalescent, colorless to slightly yellow. Do not use if solution is cloudy or has precipitated. 2.5.2 Preparation of BLINCYTO Infusion Bag for 24-Hour or 48-Hour Infusion Verify the prescribed dose and infusion duration for each BLINCYTO infusion bag. To minimize errors, use the specific volumes described in Tables 4 and 5 to prepare the BLINCYTO infusion bag . Table 4 for patients weighing 45 kg or more Table 5 for patients weighing less than 45 kg Aseptically add 270 mL 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP to the empty intravenous bag. Aseptically transfer 5.5 mL IV Solution Stabilizer to the intravenous bag containing 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP. Gently mix the contents of the bag to avoid foaming. Discard the vial containing the unused IV Solution Stabilizer. Aseptically transfer the required volume of reconstituted BLINCYTO solution into the intravenous bag containing 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP and IV Solution Stabilizer. Gently mix the contents of the bag to avoid foaming. Refer to Table 4 for patients weighing 45 kg or more for the specific volume of reconstituted BLINCYTO. Refer to Table 5 for patients weighing less than 45 kg (dose based on BSA) for the specific volume of reconstituted BLINCYTO. Discard the vial containing unused BLINCYTO. Under aseptic conditions, attach the intravenous tubing to the intravenous bag with the sterile 0.2 micron in-line filter. Ensure that the intravenous tubing is compatible with the infusion pump. Remove air from the intravenous bag. This is particularly important for use with an ambulatory infusion pump. Prime the intravenous tubing only with the solution in the bag containing the FINAL prepared BLINCYTO solution for infusion. Store refrigerated at 2°C to 8°C (36°F to 46°F) if not used immediately [see Dosage and Administration (2.7) ] . Table 4.

The pump should be programmable, lockable, non-elastomeric, and have an alarm. The starting volume (270 mL) is more than the volume administered to the patient (240 mL) to account for the priming of the intravenous tubing and to ensure that the patient will receive the full dose of BLINCYTO. Infuse prepared BLINCYTO final infusion solution according to the instructions on the pharmacy label on the prepared bag at one of the following constant infusion rates: - Infusion rate of 10 mL/hour for a duration of 24 hours, OR - Infusion rate of 5 mL/hour for a duration of 48 hours Administer prepared BLINCYTO final infusion solution using intravenous tubing that contains a sterile, non-pyrogenic, low protein-binding, 0.2 micron in-line filter. For 7-day bag administration information see section 2.6.3 below [see Dosage and Administration (2.6) ] . Important Note: Do not flush the BLINCYTO infusion line or intravenous catheter, especially when changing infusion bags. Flushing when changing bags or at completion of infusion can result in excess dosage and complications thereof. When administering via a multi - lumen venous catheter, infuse BLINCYTO through a dedicated lumen. At the end of the infusion, discard any unused BLINCYTO solution in the intravenous bag and intravenous tubing in accordance with local requirements. 2.6 Preparation and Administration of BLINCYTO as a 7-Day Infusion using Bacteriostatic 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP (Preservative) Use preservative-free Sterile Water for Injection to reconstitute BLINCYTO. Do not reconstitute BLINCYTO vials with the IV Solution Stabilizer . Do not use an in-line filter with a 7-day infusion bag. Prime the intravenous tubing only with the solution in the bag containing the FINAL prepared solution for infusion. Do not prime with 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP. 2.6.1 Reconstitution of BLINCYTO for 7-Day Infusion Determine the number of BLINCYTO vials needed for a dose. Reconstitute each BLINCYTO vial with 3 mL of preservative-free Sterile Water for Injection, USP by directing the water along the walls of the BLINCYTO vial and not directly on the lyophilized powder. The resulting concentration per BLINCYTO vial is 12.5 mcg/mL. Do not reconstitute BLINCYTO vials with the IV Solution Stabilizer. Gently swirl contents to avoid excess foaming . Do not shake. Visually inspect the reconstituted solution for particulate matter and discoloration during reconstitution and prior to infusion. The resulting solution should be clear to slightly opalescent, colorless to slightly yellow. Do not use if solution is cloudy or has precipitated. 2.6.2 Preparation of BLINCYTO Infusion Bag for 7-Day Infusion Verify the prescribed dose and infusion duration for each BLINCYTO infusion bag. To minimize errors, use the specific volumes described in Table 6 to prepare the BLINCYTO infusion bag . Aseptically add 90 mL Bacteriostatic 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP to the empty intravenous bag. Aseptically transfer 2.2 mL IV Solution Stabilizer to the intravenous bag containing Bacteriostatic 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP. Gently mix the contents of the bag to avoid foaming. Discard the vial containing the unused IV Solution Stabilizer. Aseptically transfer the required volume of reconstituted BLINCYTO solution into the intravenous bag containing Bacteriostatic 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP and IV Solution Stabilizer. Gently mix the contents of the bag to avoid foaming. Refer to Table 6 for the specific volume of reconstituted BLINCYTO. Discard the vial containing unused BLINCYTO. Aseptically add the required volume of 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP to the intravenous bag to obtain a final volume of 110 mL. Gently mix the contents of the bag to avoid foaming. Refer to Table 6 for the specific volume of 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP. Under aseptic conditions, attach the intravenous tubing to the intravenous bag. Ensure that the intravenous tubing is compatible with the infusion pump. Do not use an in-line filter for a 7-day bag. Remove air from the intravenous bag. This is particularly important for use with an ambulatory infusion pump. Prime the intravenous tubing only with the solution in the bag containing the FINAL prepared BLINCYTO solution for infusion. Store refrigerated at 2°C to 8°C (36°F to 46°F) if not used immediately [see Dosage and Administration (2.7) ] . Table 6.

The pump should be programmable, lockable, non-elastomeric, and have an alarm. The final volume of infusion solution (110 mL) will be more than the volume administered to the patient (100 mL) to account for the priming of the intravenous tubing and to ensure that the patient will receive the full dose of BLINCYTO. Do not use an in-line filter for a 7-day bag. Infuse prepared BLINCYTO final infusion solution according to the instructions on the pharmacy label on the prepared bag at an infusion rate of 0.6 mL/hour for a duration of 7 days. Important Note: Do not flush the BLINCYTO infusion line or intravenous catheter, especially when changing infusion bags. Flushing when changing bags or at completion of infusion can result in excess dosage and complications thereof. When administering via a multi - lumen venous catheter, infuse BLINCYTO through a dedicated lumen. At the end of the infusion, dispose of any unused BLINCYTO solution in the intravenous bag and intravenous tubing in accordance with local requirements. 2.7 Storage of Reconstituted BLINCYTO The information in Table 7 indicates the storage time for the reconstituted BLINCYTO vial and prepared infusion bag. Table 7. Storage Time for Reconstituted BLINCYTO Vial and Prepared BLINCYTO Infusion Bag Maximum Storage Time Room Temperature 23°C to 27°C (73°F to 81°F) Refrigerated 2°C to 8°C (36°F to 46°F) Reconstituted BLINCYTO Vial 4 hours 24 hours Prepared BLINCYTO Infusion Bag (Preservative-free) 48 hours Storage time includes infusion time. If the prepared BLINCYTO infusion bag is not administered within the time frames and temperatures indicated, it must be discarded; it should not be refrigerated again. 8 days Prepared BLINCYTO Infusion Bag (with Preservative) 7 days 14 days"

"5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Infections: Monitor patients for signs or symptoms; treat appropriately. ( 5.3 ) Effects on Ability to Drive and Use Machines: Advise patients to refrain from driving and engaging in hazardous occupations or activities such as operating heavy or potentially dangerous machinery while BLINCYTO is being administered. ( 5.6 ) Pancreatitis: Evaluate patients who develop signs and symptoms of pancreatitis. Management of pancreatitis may require either temporary interruption or discontinuation of BLINCYTO. ( 5.8 ) Preparation and Administration Errors: Strictly follow instructions for preparation (including admixing) and administration. ( 5.10 ) Benzyl Alcohol Toxicity in Neonates: Use BLINCYTO prepared with preservative-free saline for neonates. ( 5.12 , 8.4 ) Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: May cause fetal harm. Advise females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to the fetus and to use effective contraception. ( 5.13 , 8.1 , 8.3 ) 5.1 Cytokine Release Syndrome Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS), which may be life-threatening or fatal, occurred in patients receiving BLINCYTO. The median time to onset of CRS was 2 days after the start of infusion and the median time to resolution of CRS was 5 days among cases that resolved. Manifestations of CRS include fever, headache, nausea, asthenia, hypotension, increased alanine aminotransferase (ALT), increased aspartate aminotransferase (AST), increased total bilirubin, and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). The manifestations of CRS after treatment with BLINCYTO overlap with those of infusion reactions, capillary leak syndrome (CLS), and hemophagocytic histiocytosis/macrophage activation syndrome (MAS). Using all of these terms to define CRS in clinical trials of BLINCYTO, CRS was reported in 15% of patients with relapsed or refractory ALL and in 7% of patients with MRD-positive ALL [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] . Monitor patients for signs or symptoms of these events. Advise outpatients on BLINCYTO to contact their healthcare professional for signs and symptoms associated with CRS. If severe CRS occurs, interrupt BLINCYTO until CRS resolves. Discontinue BLINCYTO permanently if life-threatening CRS occurs. Administer corticosteroids for severe or life-threatening CRS [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) ] . 5.2 Neurological Toxicities In patients with ALL receiving BLINCYTO in clinical studies, neurological toxicities have occurred in approximately 65% of patients [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] . Among patients that experienced a neurologic event, the median time to the first event was within the first 2 weeks of BLINCYTO treatment and the majority of events resolved. The most common (≥ 10%) manifestations of neurological toxicity were headache, and tremor; the neurological toxicity profile varied by age group [see Use in Specific Populations (8.4 , 8.5) ] . Grade 3 or higher (severe, life-threatening, or fatal) neurological toxicities following initiation of BLINCYTO administration occurred in approximately 13% of patients and included encephalopathy, convulsions, speech disorders, disturbances in consciousness, confusion and disorientation, and coordination and balance disorders. Manifestations of neurological toxicity included cranial nerve disorders. The majority of neurologic events resolved following interruption of BLINCYTO, but some resulted in treatment discontinuation. There is limited experience with BLINCYTO in patients with active ALL in the central nervous system (CNS) or a history of neurologic events. Patients with a history or presence of clinically relevant CNS pathology were excluded from clinical studies. Monitor patients receiving BLINCYTO for signs and symptoms of neurological toxicities. Advise outpatients on BLINCYTO to contact their healthcare professional if they develop signs or symptoms of neurological toxicities. Interrupt or discontinue BLINCYTO as recommended [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) ] . 5.3 Infections In patients with ALL receiving BLINCYTO in clinical studies, serious infections such as sepsis, pneumonia, bacteremia, opportunistic infections, and catheter-site infections were observed in approximately 25% of patients, some of which were life-threatening or fatal [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] . As appropriate, administer prophylactic antibiotics and employ surveillance testing during treatment with BLINCYTO. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of infection and treat appropriately. 5.4 Tumor Lysis Syndrome Tumor lysis syndrome (TLS), which may be life-threatening or fatal, has been observed in patients receiving BLINCYTO [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] . Appropriate prophylactic measures, including pretreatment nontoxic cytoreduction and on-treatment hydration, should be used for the prevention of TLS during BLINCYTO treatment. Monitor for signs or symptoms of TLS. Management of these events may require either temporary interruption or discontinuation of BLINCYTO [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) ] . 5.5 Neutropenia and Febrile Neutropenia Neutropenia and febrile neutropenia, including life-threatening cases, have been observed in patients receiving BLINCYTO [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] . Monitor laboratory parameters (including, but not limited to, white blood cell count and absolute neutrophil count) during BLINCYTO infusion. Interrupt BLINCYTO if prolonged neutropenia occurs. 5.6 Effects on Ability to Drive and Use Machines Due to the potential for neurologic events, including seizures, patients receiving BLINCYTO are at risk for loss of consciousness [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] . Advise patients to refrain from driving and engaging in hazardous occupations or activities such as operating heavy or potentially dangerous machinery while BLINCYTO is being administered. 5.7 Elevated Liver Enzymes Treatment with BLINCYTO was associated with transient elevations in liver enzymes [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] . In patients with ALL receiving BLINCYTO in clinical studies, the median time to onset of elevated liver enzymes was 3 days. The majority of these transient elevations in liver enzymes were observed in the setting of CRS. For the events that were observed outside the setting of CRS, the median time to onset was 19 days. Grade 3 or greater elevations in liver enzymes occurred in approximately 7% of patients outside the setting of CRS and resulted in treatment discontinuation in less than 1% of patients. Monitor alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT), and total blood bilirubin prior to the start of and during BLINCYTO treatment. Interrupt BLINCYTO if the transaminases rise to greater than 5 times the upper limit of normal or if total bilirubin rises to more than 3 times the upper limit of normal . 5.8 Pancreatitis Fatal pancreatitis has been reported in patients receiving BLINCYTO in combination with dexamethasone in clinical studies and the postmarketing setting [see Adverse Reactions (6.3) ] . Evaluate patients who develop signs and symptoms of pancreatitis. Management of pancreatitis may require either temporary interruption or discontinuation of BLINCYTO and dexamethasone [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) ] . 5.9 Leukoencephalopathy Cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) changes showing leukoencephalopathy have been observed in patients receiving BLINCYTO, especially in patients with prior treatment with cranial irradiation and antileukemic chemotherapy (including systemic high-dose methotrexate or intrathecal cytarabine). The clinical significance of these imaging changes is unknown. 5.10 Preparation and Administration Errors Preparation and administration errors have occurred with BLINCYTO treatment. Follow instructions for preparation (including admixing) and administration strictly to minimize medication errors (including underdose and overdose) [see Dosage and Administration (2.4) ] . 5.11 Immunization The safety of immunization with live viral vaccines during or following BLINCYTO therapy has not been studied. Vaccination with live virus vaccines is not recommended for at least 2 weeks prior to the start of BLINCYTO treatment, during treatment, and until immune recovery following last cycle of BLINCYTO. 5.12 Benzyl Alcohol Toxicity in Neonates Serious adverse reactions, including fatal reactions and the \"gasping syndrome,\" have been reported in very low birth weight (VLBW) neonates born weighing less than 1500 g, and early preterm neonates (infants born less than 34 weeks gestational age) who received intravenous drugs containing benzyl alcohol as a preservative. Early preterm VLBW neonates may be more likely to develop these reactions, because they may be less able to metabolize benzyl alcohol [see Use in Specific Populations (8.4) ] . Use the preservative-free preparations of BLINCYTO where possible in neonates. When prescribing BLINCYTO (with preservative) for neonatal patients, consider the combined daily metabolic load of benzyl alcohol from all sources including BLINCYTO (with preservative), other products containing benzyl alcohol or other excipients (e.g., ethanol, propylene glycol) which compete with benzyl alcohol for the same metabolic pathway. Monitor neonatal patients receiving BLINCYTO (with preservative) for new or worsening metabolic acidosis. The minimum amount of benzyl alcohol at which serious adverse reactions may occur in neonates is not known. The BLINCYTO 7-Day bag (with preservative) contains 7.4 mg of benzyl alcohol per mL [see Use in Specific Populations (8.4) ] . 5.13 Embryo-Fetal Toxicity Based on its mechanism of action, BLINCYTO may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to the fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with BLINCYTO and for 48 hours after the last dose [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1 , 8.3) ] ."

( 6.1 ) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Amgen Inc. at 1-800-77-AMGEN (1-800-772-6436) or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch. 6.1 Clinical Trials 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. The safety of BLINCYTO in patients with MRD-positive B cell precursor ALL (n = 137) and Philadelphia chromosome-negative relapsed or refractory B cell precursor ALL (n = 267) was evaluated in three clinical studies. The most common adverse reactions (≥ 20%) in this pooled population were pyrexia, infusion-related reactions, infections (pathogen unspecified), headache, neutropenia, anemia, and thrombocytopenia. MRD-positive B-cell Precursor ALL The safety of BLINCYTO in patients with MRD-positive B-cell precursor ALL was evaluated in two single-arm clinical studies in which 137 patients were treated with BLINCYTO. The median age of the study population was 45 years (range: 18 to 77 years). The most common adverse reactions (≥ 20%) were pyrexia, infusion-related reactions, headache, infections (pathogen unspecified), tremor, and chills. Serious adverse reactions were reported in 61% of patients. The most common serious adverse reactions (≥ 2%) included pyrexia, tremor, encephalopathy, aphasia, lymphopenia, neutropenia, overdose, device related infection, seizure, and staphylococcal infection. Adverse reactions of Grade 3 or higher were reported in 64% of patients. Discontinuation of therapy due to adverse reactions occurred in 17% of patients; neurologic events were the most frequently reported reasons for discontinuation. There were 2 fatal adverse reactions that occurred within 30 days of the end of BLINCYTO treatment (atypical pneumonia and subdural hemorrhage). Table 8 summarizes the adverse reactions occurring at a ≥ 10% incidence for any grade or ≥ 5% incidence for Grade 3 or higher. Table 8.

The median age of BLINCYTO-treated patients was 37 years (range: 18 to 80 years), 60% were male, 84% were White, 7% Asian, 2% were Black or African American, 2% were American Indian or Alaska Native, and 5% were Multiple/Other. The most common adverse reactions (≥ 20%) in the BLINCYTO arm were infections (bacterial and pathogen unspecified), pyrexia, headache, infusion-related reactions, anemia, febrile neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and neutropenia. Serious adverse reactions were reported in 62% of patients. The most common serious adverse reactions (≥ 2%) included febrile neutropenia, pyrexia, sepsis, pneumonia, overdose, septic shock, CRS, bacterial sepsis, device related infection, and bacteremia. Adverse reactions of Grade 3 or higher were reported in 87% of patients. Discontinuation of therapy due to adverse reactions occurred in 12% of patients treated with BLINCYTO; neurologic events and infections were the most frequently reported reasons for discontinuation of treatment due to an adverse reaction. Fatal adverse events occurred in 16% of patients. The majority of the fatal events were infections. The adverse reactions occurring at a ≥ 10% incidence for any grade or ≥ 5% incidence for Grade 3 or higher in the BLINCYTO-treated patients in first cycle of therapy are summarized in Table 9.

"drug_interactions": [
"7 DRUG INTERACTIONS No formal drug interaction studies have been conducted with BLINCYTO. Initiation of BLINCYTO treatment causes transient release of cytokines that may suppress CYP450 enzymes. The highest drug-drug interaction risk is during the first 9 days of the first cycle and the first 2 days of the second cycle in patients who are receiving concomitant CYP450 substrates, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic index. In these patients, monitor for toxicity (e.g., warfarin) or drug concentrations (e.g., cyclosporine). Adjust the dose of the concomitant drug as needed [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.2 , 12.3) ] ."
],
"use_in_specific_populations": [
"8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS 8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Based on its mechanism of action, BLINCYTO may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.1) ] . There are no available data on the use of BLINCYTO in pregnant women to evaluate for a drug-associated risk. In animal reproduction studies, a murine surrogate molecule administered to pregnant mice crossed the placental barrier (see Data ) . Blinatumomab causes T-cell activation and cytokine release; immune activation may compromise pregnancy maintenance. In addition, based on expression of CD19 on B-cells and the finding of B-cell depletion in non-pregnant animals, blinatumomab can cause B-cell lymphocytopenia in infants exposed to blinatumomab in-utero. Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2-4% and 15-20%, respectively. Clinical Considerations Fetal/Neonatal Adverse Reactions Due to the potential for B-cell lymphocytopenia in infants following exposure to BLINCYTO in utero , the infant's B lymphocytes should be monitored before the initiation of live virus vaccination [see Warnings and Precautions (5.11) ] . Data Animal Data Animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with blinatumomab. In embryo-fetal developmental toxicity studies, a murine surrogate molecule was administered intravenously to pregnant mice during the period of organogenesis. The surrogate molecule crossed the placental barrier and did not cause embryo-fetal toxicity or teratogenicity. The expected depletions of B and T cells were observed in the pregnant mice, but hematological effects were not assessed in fetuses. 8.2 Lactation Risk Summary There is no information regarding the presence of blinatumomab in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. Because many drugs are excreted in human milk and because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in breastfed infants from BLINCYTO, including B-cell lymphocytopenia, advise patients not to breastfeed during treatment with BLINCYTO and for 48 hours after the last dose. 8.3 Females and Males of Reproductive Potential BLINCYTO may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1) ] . Pregnancy Testing Verify the pregnancy status of females of reproductive potential prior to initiating BLINCYTO treatment. Contraception Females Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with BLINCYTO and for 48 hours after the last dose. 8.4 Pediatric Use Minimal Residual Disease (MRD)-Positive B-cell Precursor ALL The safety and efficacy of BLINCYTO for the treatment of CD19-positive B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in first or second complete remission with minimal residual disease (MRD) greater than or equal to 0.1% have been established in pediatric patients. Use of BLINCYTO is supported by evidence from two randomized, controlled trials (Study AALL1331 NCT02101853 and Study 20120215 NCT02393859) in pediatric subjects with first relapsed B-cell precursor ALL. Both studies included pediatric patients with MRD-positive B-cell precursor ALL. The studies included pediatric patients treated with BLINCYTO in the following age groups: 6 infants (1 month up to less than 2 years), 165 children (2 years up to less than 12 years), and 70 adolescents (12 years to less than 17 years). In general, the adverse reactions in BLINCYTO-treated pediatric patients were similar in type to those seen in adult patients with MRD-positive ALL [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] , and no differences in safety were observed between the different pediatric age subgroups. Relapsed or Refractory B-cell Precursor ALL The safety and efficacy of BLINCYTO have been established in pediatric patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell precursor ALL. Use of BLINCYTO is supported by a single-arm trial in pediatric patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell precursor ALL. This study included pediatric patients in the following age groups: 10 infants (1 month up to less than 2 years), 40 children (2 years up to less than 12 years), and 20 adolescents (12 years to less than 18 years). No differences in efficacy were observed between the different age subgroups [see Clinical Studies (14.2) ] . In general, the adverse reactions in BLINCYTO-treated pediatric patients with relapsed or refractory ALL were similar in type to those seen in adult patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell precursor ALL [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] . Adverse reactions that were observed more frequently (≥ 10% difference) in the pediatric population compared to the adult population were pyrexia (80% vs. 61%), hypertension (26% vs. 8%), anemia (41% vs. 24%), infusion-related reaction (49% vs. 34%), thrombocytopenia (34% vs. 21%), leukopenia (24% vs. 11%), and weight increased (17% vs. 6%). In pediatric patients less than 2 years old (infants) with relapsed or refractory ALL, the incidence of neurologic toxicities was not significantly different than for the other age groups, but its manifestations were different; the only event terms reported were agitation, headache, insomnia, somnolence, and irritability. Infants also had an increased incidence of hypokalemia (50%) compared to other pediatric age cohorts (15-20%) or adults (17%). Benzyl Alcohol Toxicity in Neonates Serious and fatal adverse reactions, including \"gasping syndrome,\" can occur in very low birth weight (VLBW) neonates born weighing less than 1500 g, and early preterm neonates (infants born less than 34 weeks gestational age) treated with benzyl alcohol-preserved drugs intravenously. The \"gasping syndrome\" is characterized by central nervous system depression, metabolic acidosis, and gasping respirations. In these cases, benzyl alcohol dosages of 99 to 234 mg/kg/day produced high concentrations of benzyl alcohol and its metabolite in the blood and urine (blood concentration of benzyl alcohol were 0.61 to 1.378 mmol/L). Additional adverse reactions included gradual neurological deterioration, seizures, intracranial hemorrhage, hematologic abnormalities, skin breakdown, hepatic and renal failure, hypotension, bradycardia, and cardiovascular collapse. The minimum amount of benzyl alcohol at which serious adverse reactions may occur in neonates is not known [see Warnings and Precautions (5.12) ]. Use the preservative-free formulations of Blincyto where possible in neonates. When prescribing BLINCYTO (with preservative) in neonatal patients, consider the combined daily metabolic load of benzyl alcohol from all sources including BLINCYTO (with preservative). The BLINCYTO 7-Day bag (with preservative) contains 7.4 mg of benzyl alcohol per mL [see Warnings and Precautions (5.12) ] . Benzyl alcohol administration may contribute to metabolic acidosis in pediatric patients, particularly those with immaturity of the metabolic pathway for alcohol, or those with underlying conditions or receiving concomitant medications that could predispose to acid base imbalance. Monitor these patients during use of Blincyto (with preservative) for new or worsening metabolic acidosis. 8.5 Geriatric Use Of the total number of patients with ALL treated in clinical studies of BLINCYTO, approximately 12% were 65 and over, while 2% were 75 and older. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between these patients and younger patients, and other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients. However, elderly patients experienced a higher rate of serious infections and neurological toxicities, including cognitive disorder, encephalopathy, and confusion [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2 , 5.3) ] ."

"8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Based on its mechanism of action, BLINCYTO may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.1) ] . There are no available data on the use of BLINCYTO in pregnant women to evaluate for a drug-associated risk. In animal reproduction studies, a murine surrogate molecule administered to pregnant mice crossed the placental barrier (see Data ) . Blinatumomab causes T-cell activation and cytokine release; immune activation may compromise pregnancy maintenance. In addition, based on expression of CD19 on B-cells and the finding of B-cell depletion in non-pregnant animals, blinatumomab can cause B-cell lymphocytopenia in infants exposed to blinatumomab in-utero. Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2-4% and 15-20%, respectively. Clinical Considerations Fetal/Neonatal Adverse Reactions Due to the potential for B-cell lymphocytopenia in infants following exposure to BLINCYTO in utero , the infant's B lymphocytes should be monitored before the initiation of live virus vaccination [see Warnings and Precautions (5.11) ] . Data Animal Data Animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with blinatumomab. In embryo-fetal developmental toxicity studies, a murine surrogate molecule was administered intravenously to pregnant mice during the period of organogenesis. The surrogate molecule crossed the placental barrier and did not cause embryo-fetal toxicity or teratogenicity. The expected depletions of B and T cells were observed in the pregnant mice, but hematological effects were not assessed in fetuses."

"8.4 Pediatric Use Minimal Residual Disease (MRD)-Positive B-cell Precursor ALL The safety and efficacy of BLINCYTO for the treatment of CD19-positive B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in first or second complete remission with minimal residual disease (MRD) greater than or equal to 0.1% have been established in pediatric patients. Use of BLINCYTO is supported by evidence from two randomized, controlled trials (Study AALL1331 NCT02101853 and Study 20120215 NCT02393859) in pediatric subjects with first relapsed B-cell precursor ALL. Both studies included pediatric patients with MRD-positive B-cell precursor ALL. The studies included pediatric patients treated with BLINCYTO in the following age groups: 6 infants (1 month up to less than 2 years), 165 children (2 years up to less than 12 years), and 70 adolescents (12 years to less than 17 years).

"12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY 12.1 Mechanism of Action Blinatumomab is a bispecific CD19-directed CD3 T-cell engager that binds to CD19 expressed on the surface of cells of B-lineage origin and CD3 expressed on the surface of T cells. It activates endogenous T cells by connecting CD3 in the T-cell receptor (TCR) complex with CD19 on benign and malignant B cells. Blinatumomab mediates the formation of a synapse between the T-cell and the tumor cell, upregulation of cell adhesion molecules, production of cytolytic proteins, release of inflammatory cytokines, and proliferation of T cells, which result in redirected lysis of CD19+ cells. 12.2 Pharmacodynamics During the continuous intravenous infusion over 4 weeks, the pharmacodynamic response was characterized by T-cell activation and initial redistribution, reduction in peripheral B cells, and transient cytokine elevation. Peripheral T-cell redistribution (i.e., T-cell adhesion to blood vessel endothelium and/or transmigration into tissue) occurred after start of BLINCYTO infusion or dose escalation. T-cell counts initially declined within 1 to 2 days and then returned to baseline levels within 7 to 14 days in the majority of patients. Increase of T-cell counts above baseline (T-cell expansion) was observed in few patients. Peripheral B-cell counts decreased to less than or equal to 10 cells/microliter during the first treatment cycle at doses ≥ 5 mcg/m 2 /day or ≥ 9 mcg/day in the majority of patients. No recovery of peripheral B-cell counts was observed during the 2-week BLINCYTO-free period between treatment cycles. Incomplete depletion of B cells occurred at doses of 0.5 mcg/m 2 /day and 1.5 mcg/m 2 /day and in a few patients at higher doses. Cytokines including IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-12, TNF-α, and IFN-γ were measured, and IL-6, IL-10, and IFN-γ were elevated. The highest elevation of cytokines was observed in the first 2 days following start of BLINCYTO infusion. The elevated cytokine levels returned to baseline within 24 to 48 hours during the infusion. In subsequent treatment cycles, cytokine elevation occurred in fewer patients with lesser intensity compared to the initial 48 hours of the first treatment cycle. 12.3 Pharmacokinetics The pharmacokinetics of blinatumomab appear linear over a dose range from 5 to 90 mcg/m 2 /day (approximately equivalent to 9 to 162 mcg/day) in adult patients. Following continuous intravenous infusion, the steady-state serum concentration (C ss ) was achieved within a day and remained stable over time. The increase in mean C ss values was approximately proportional to the dose in the range tested. At the clinical doses of 9 mcg/day and 28 mcg/day for the treatment of relapsed or refractory ALL, the mean (SD) C ss was 228 (356) pg/mL and 616 (537) pg/mL, respectively. The pharmacokinetics of blinatumomab in adult patients with MRD-positive B-cell precursor ALL was similar to adult patients with relapsed or refractory ALL. Distribution The estimated mean (SD) volume of distribution based on terminal phase (V z ) was 5.27 (4.37) L with continuous intravenous infusion of blinatumomab. Elimination The estimated mean (SD) systemic clearance with continuous intravenous infusion in patients receiving blinatumomab in clinical studies was 3.10 (2.94) L/hour. The mean (SD) half-life was 2.20 (1.34) hours. Negligible amounts of blinatumomab were excreted in the urine at the tested clinical doses. Metabolism The metabolic pathway of blinatumomab has not been characterized. Like other protein therapeutics, BLINCYTO is expected to be degraded into small peptides and amino acids via catabolic pathways. Specific Populations There were no clinically meaningful differences in the pharmacokinetics of blinatumomab based on age (0.6 to 80 years of age), sex, race (72% White, 17% Asian), or mild (total bilirubin ≤ upper limit of normal [ULN] and AST > ULN or total bilirubin > 1 to 1.5 × ULN and any AST) or moderate hepatic impairment (total bilirubin > 1.5 to 3 × ULN and any AST). Body surface area (0.4 to 2.70 m 2 ) influences the pharmacokinetics of blinatumomab, supporting BSA-based dosing in patients < 45 kg. The effect of other races or ethnicities on the pharmacokinetics of blinatumomab is unknown. Pediatric Patients The pharmacokinetics of blinatumomab appear linear over a dose range from 5 to 30 mcg/m 2 /day in pediatric patients. At the recommended doses of 5 and 15 mcg/m 2 /day for the treatment of relapsed or refractory B-cell precursor ALL, the mean (SD) steady-state concentration (C ss ) values were 162 (179) and 533 (392) pg/mL, respectively. The pharmacokinetics of blinatumomab in pediatric patients with MRD-positive B-cell precursor ALL was similar to pediatric patients with relapsed or refractory ALL. In all pediatric patients with ALL, the estimated mean (SD) volume of distribution (V z ), clearance (CL), and terminal half-life (t 1/2,z ) in Cycle 1 were 4.14 (3.32) L/m 2 , 1.65 (1.62) L/hour/m 2 , and 2.14 (1.44) hours, respectively. The steady-state concentrations of blinatumomab were comparable in adult and pediatric patients at the equivalent dose levels based on BSA-based regimens. Patients with Renal Impairment No formal pharmacokinetic studies of blinatumomab have been conducted in patients with renal impairment. Pharmacokinetic analyses showed an approximately 2-fold difference in mean blinatumomab clearance values between patients with moderate renal impairment (CrCL ranging from 30 to 59 mL/min, N = 21) and normal renal function (CrCL more than 90 mL/min, N = 215). However, high interpatient variability was discerned (CV% up to 96.8%), and clearance values in renal impaired patients were essentially within the range observed in patients with normal renal function. There is no information available in patients with severe renal impairment (CrCL 15-29 mL/min) or patients on hemodialysis. Patients with Hepatic Impairment No formal pharmacokinetic studies using BLINCYTO have been conducted in patients with hepatic impairment. Drug Interaction Studies Transient elevation of cytokines may suppress CYP450 enzyme activities [see Drug Interactions (7) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.2) ] . 12.6 Immunogenicity The observed incidence of anti-drug antibody is highly dependent on the sensitivity and specificity of the assay. Differences in assay methods preclude meaningful comparisons of the incidence of anti-drug antibody in the studies described below with the incidence of anti-drug antibodies in other studies, including those of BLINCYTO. The immunogenicity of BLINCYTO has been evaluated using either an electrochemiluminescence detection technology (ECL) or an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) screening immunoassay for the detection of binding anti-blinatumomab antibodies. For patients whose sera tested positive in the screening immunoassay, an in vitro biological assay was performed to detect neutralizing antibodies. In clinical studies, less than 2% of patients treated with BLINCYTO tested positive for binding anti-blinatumomab antibodies. Of patients who developed anti-blinatumomab antibodies, 7 out of 9 (78%) had in vitro neutralizing activity. Anti-blinatumomab antibody formation may affect pharmacokinetics of BLINCYTO. Overall, the totality of clinical evidence supports the finding that anti-blinatumomab antibodies are not suggestive of any clinical impact on the safety or effectiveness of BLINCYTO."

BLINCYTO was administered at a constant dose of 15 mcg/m 2 /day (equivalent to the recommended dosage of 28 mcg/day) intravenously for all treatment cycles. Patients received up to 4 cycles of treatment. Dose adjustment was possible in case of adverse events. The treated population included 86 patients in first or second hematologic complete remission (CR1 or CR2). The demographics and baseline characteristics are shown in Table 11.

There were 405 patients randomized 2:1 to receive BLINCYTO or investigator-selected SOC chemotherapy. Randomization was stratified by age (< 35 years vs. ≥ 35 years of age), prior salvage therapy (yes vs. no), and prior alloHSCT (yes vs. no) as assessed at the time of consent. The demographics and baseline characteristics were well-balanced between the two arms (see Table 13 ). Table 13.

Of the 134 patients on the SOC arm, 25 dropped out prior to start of study treatment, and 109 patients received a median of 1 treatment cycle (range: 1 to 4 cycles). The determination of efficacy was based on overall survival (OS). The study demonstrated statistically significant improvement in OS for patients treated with BLINCYTO as compared to SOC chemotherapy. See Figure 1 and Table 14 below for efficacy results from the TOWER Study. Figure 1. Kaplan-Meier Curve of Overall Survival in TOWER Study Table 14.

Eligible patients were ≥ 18 years of age with Philadelphia chromosome-negative relapsed or refractory B-cell precursor ALL (relapsed with first remission duration of ≤ 12 months in first salvage or relapsed or refractory after first salvage therapy or relapsed within 12 months of alloHSCT, and had ≥ 10% blasts in bone marrow). BLINCYTO was administered as a continuous intravenous infusion. The recommended dose for this study was determined to be 9 mcg/day on Days 1-7 and 28 mcg/day on Days 8-28 for Cycle 1, and 28 mcg/day on Days 1-28 for subsequent cycles. Dose adjustment was possible in case of adverse events. The treated population included 185 patients who received at least 1 infusion of BLINCYTO; the median number of treatment cycles was 2 (range: 1 to 5). Patients who responded to BLINCYTO but later relapsed had the option to be retreated with BLINCYTO. Among treated patients, the median age was 39 years (range: 18 to 79 years), 63 out of 185 (34.1%) had undergone HSCT prior to receiving BLINCYTO, and 32 out of 185 (17.3%) had received more than 2 prior salvage therapies. Efficacy was based on the complete remission (CR) rate, duration of CR, and proportion of patients with an MRD-negative CR/CR with partial hematological recovery (CR/CRh*) within 2 cycles of treatment with BLINCYTO. Table 15 shows the efficacy results from this study. The HSCT rate among those who achieved CR/CRh* was 39% (30 out of 77). Table 15.

Eligible patients were ≥ 18 years of age with Philadelphia chromosome-positive B-cell precursor ALL, relapsed or refractory to at least 1 second generation or later tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), or intolerant to second generation TKI, and intolerant or refractory to imatinib mesylate. BLINCYTO was administered at 9 mcg/day on Days 1-7 and 28 mcg/day on Days 8-28 for Cycle 1, and 28 mcg/day on Days 1-28 for subsequent cycles. Dose adjustment was possible in case of adverse events. The treated population included 45 patients who received at least one infusion of BLINCYTO; the median number of treatment cycles was 2 (range: 1 to 5).

BLINCYTO was administered at 5 mcg/m 2 /day on Days 1-7 and 15 mcg/m 2 /day on Days 8-28 for Cycle 1, and 15 mcg/m 2 /day on Days 1-28 for subsequent cycles. Dose adjustment was possible in case of adverse events. Patients who responded to BLINCYTO but later relapsed had the option to be retreated with BLINCYTO. Among the 70 treated patients, the median age was 8 years (range: 7 months to 17 years), 40 out of 70 (57.1%) had undergone allogeneic HSCT prior to receiving BLINCYTO, and 39 out of 70 (55.7%) had refractory disease. The median number of treatment cycles was 1 (range: 1 to 5). Twenty-three out of 70 (32.9%) patients achieved CR/CRh* within the first 2 treatment cycles with 17 out of 23 (73.9%) occurring within Cycle 1 of treatment. See Table 18 for the efficacy results from the study. The HSCT rate among those who achieved CR/CRh* was 48% (11 out of 23). Table 18.
