CLEVECORD, HPC (Hematopoietic Progenitor Cell), Cord Blood, is an allogeneic cord blood hematopoietic progenitor cell therapy indicated for use in unrelated donor hematopoietic progenitor stem cell transplantation procedures in conjunction with an appropriate preparative regimen for hematopoietic and immunologic reconstitution in patients with disorders affecting the hematopoietic system that are inherited, acquired, or result from myeloablative treatment.

The risk benefit assessment for an individual patient depends on the patient characteristics, including disease, stage, risk factors, and specific manifestations of the disease, on characteristics of the graft, and on other available treatments or types of hematopoietic progenitor cells.

• For intravenous use only.
• Do not irradiate.

Unit selection and administration of CLEVECORD should be done under the direction of a physician experienced in hematopoietic progenitor cell transplantation.

Each CLEVECORD unit contains a minimum of 5 x 108 total nucleated cells with a minimum of 1.25 x 106 viable CD34+ cells, suspended in 10% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and 1% Dextran 40, at the time of cryopreservation.

The exact pre-cryopreservation nucleated cell content is provided in the accompanying records.

None.

Day-100 mortality from all causes was 25%.

The most common infusion-related adverse reactions (≥5%) are hypertension, vomiting, nausea, bradycardia, and fever.

CLEVECORD consists of hematopoietic progenitor cells, monocytes, lymphocytes, and granulocytes from human cord blood for intravenous infusion. Blood recovered from umbilical cord and placenta is volume reduced and partially depleted of red blood cells and plasma.

The active ingredient is hematopoietic progenitor cells which express the cell surface marker CD34. The potency of cord blood is determined by measuring the numbers of total nucleated cells (TNC) and CD34+ cells, and cell viability. Each unit of CLEVECORD contains a minimum of 5 x 108 total nucleated cells with at least 1.25 x 106 viable CD34+ cells at the time of cryopreservation. The cellular composition of CLEVECORD depends on the composition of cells in the blood recovered from the umbilical cord and placenta of the donor. The actual nucleated cell count, the CD34+ cell count, the ABO group, and the HLA typing are listed in the accompanying records sent with each individual unit.

CLEVECORD has the following inactive ingredients: dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), citrate phosphate dextrose (CPD), hydroxyethyl starch, and Dextran 40. When prepared for infusion according to instructions, the infusate contains the following inactive ingredients: Dextran 40, human serum albumin, DMSO, residual hydroxyethyl starch and CPD.

The effectiveness of CLEVECORD as defined by hematopoietic reconstitution, was demonstrated in one single-arm prospective study and in retrospective reviews of data from an observational database for CLEVECORD and in data in the dockets and public information. Of the 1299 patients in the docket and public data, 66% (n=862) underwent transplantation as treatment for hematologic malignancy. Results for patients who received a total nucleated cell dose ≥2.5 x 107/kg are shown in Table 2. Neutrophil recovery is defined as the time from transplantation to an absolute neutrophil count more than 500 per microliter. Platelet recovery is the time to a platelet count more than 20,000 per microliter. Erythrocyte recovery is the time to a reticulocyte count greater than 30,000 per microliter. The total nucleated cell dose and degree of HLA match were inversely associated with the time to neutrophil recovery in the docket data.

Table 2: Hematopoietic Recovery for Patients Transplanted with HPC, Cord Blood, Total Nucleated Cell (TNC) Dose ≥ 2.5 x 107/kg

* HPC, Cord Blood (from multiple cord blood banks)

**Data from patients who received a suitable allograft (i.e., TNC dose ≥ 2.5 x 107/kg and HLA match > 3/6) with at least a single unit of CLEVECORD.

***All 91 patients had evaluable data for age, sex, and cell dose.  Since not all of the 91 patients had evaluable data for all of the listed outcomes parameters, the numbers of patients treated (N) differ for the various listed outcomes parameters.  Numbers of patients treated (N) for neutrophil recovery, platelet recovery ≥ 20k, platelet recovery ≥ 50k are: 76 (excludes patients who died prior to D42 and patients with missing data), 63 (excludes patients who died prior to D100 and patients with missing data), and 53 (excludes patients who died prior to D100 and patients with missing data), respectively.

CLEVECORD is supplied as a cryopreserved cell suspension in a sealed bag containing a minimum of 5 x 108 total nucleated cells with a minimum of 1.25 x 106 viable CD34+ cells in a volume of 25 milliliters (ISBT 128, Product Code S1393, ISBT 128 Facility Identifier Number W4215). The exact pre-cryopreservation nucleated cell content is provided in the accompanying records.

Store CLEVECORD at or below -150°C until ready for thawing and preparation.

Discuss the following with patients receiving CLEVECORD:

• Report immediately any signs and symptoms of acute infusion reactions, such as fever, chills, fatigue, breathing problems, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, headache, or muscle aches.

II RECEIPT INSTRUCTIONS

CLEVECORD is shipped frozen inside a steel canister placed inside a liquid nitrogen (LN2) charged tank specifically designed to keep the temperature at or below -150°C (dry shipper). Dry shippers consist of a protective shipping container with a large rounded lid, carrying a LN2 tank with a flat lid (see Figure 1). CLEVECORD must be stored at or below -150°C either in the LN2 tank inside the dry shipper for short-term storage (up to 48 hours), or inside a LN2-cooled storage device at the Transplant Center for storage greater than 48 hours. Recharge the tank with fresh LN2 if CLEVECORD is to remain stored in the dry shipper for more than 48 hours.

Figure 1: Dry shipper components and configuration

Use the following instructions to complete the “Dry Shipper and HPC, Cord Blood Receipt Form” confirming receipt of the CLEVECORD unit and verifying the identity of the unit for the intended recipient. Two trained transplant center staff members are required to receive and verify the CLEVECORD unit.

     a. Inspect the dry shipper on receipt for tampering or damage.

     b. Cut and remove the blue NMDP zip tie, any additional zip ties, and cellophane shipping wrap. Open the large rounded lid of the protective shipping container.

     c. Inspect the temperature data logger which is located on top of the flat lid of the LN2 tank inside of the dry shipper.  Observe the temperature indicated on the data logger, and in Section 2 of the Dry Shipper and HPC, Cord Blood Receipt Form record if the indicated temperature is at or below -150°C.

NOTE: After return of the dry shipper, the Cleveland Cord Blood Center will download the temperature recordings from the data logger. Upon request by the transplant center, a printout of the temperature readings will be provided by fax or email to validate that the CLEVECORD unit was maintained at or below -150°C at all times during shipment.

     d. Remove the paperwork packet attached to the inside of the large rounded lid. Obtain the padlock combination enclosed in the packet. Use the padlock combination to remove the padlock from the flat lid on the LN2 tank inside of the dry shipper.

     e. Carefully remove the lid from the LN2 tank by slight rotation and, using cryogenic gloves, quickly remove CLEVECORD enclosed in the metal canister(s). Immediately place the metal canister in a reservoir with LN2 or in the vapor phase of a LN2 freezer at a temperature at or below -150⁰C (if available).

     f. Place all packing materials back inside the LN2 tank and replace the lid ensuring that the temperature probe extends to the bottom of the LN2 tank and that the temperature probe wire is not kinked.

     g. Carefully open the metal canister with the canister opening tool (included).  Handle with caution to avoid damage to CLEVECORD cryobag.

     h. Inspect the integrity of the cryobag. 

NOTE: If there is damage to the cryobag, return the cryobag to storage at or below -150°C (contain the cryobag in an overwrap if necessary).  Consult with the transplant physician and contact Cleveland Cord Blood Center (CCBC).

     i. Record the donor identification number (DIN) from the cryobag label on the Dry Shipper and HPC, Cord Blood Receipt Form. The DIN on CLEVECORD should include the CCBC Facility ID number (W4215). Large CLEVECORD products may be split into two cryobags, and the rotated flag characters after the DIN indicate the individual products, identified by flag codes 01 and 02.

     j. Check that the CLEVECORD DIN agrees exactly with the DIN previously selected for the intended recipient. Verify the match and print and sign in Section 2, #11 on the Dry Shipper and HPC, Cord Blood Receipt Form.

     k. Store CLEVECORD in a LN2 freezer until ready to thaw for use.

     l. Complete section 2 of the Dry Shipper and HPC, Cord Blood Receipt Form and fax to Cleveland Cord Blood Center at (216) 896-0320.

     m. Re-attach the provided padlock to the flat lid of the LN2 tank inside of the dry shipper and scramble the code for secured locking.

     n. Secure the large rounded lid of the protective shipping container and follow instructions in Section VI. for return of the dry shipper.

NOTE: If there is any error or ambiguity with regard to the documentation or condition of the product, close the LN2 tank to keep the product at or below -150ºC. Immediately advise the staff of the Cleveland Cord Blood Center and the transplant physician. Do not proceed until the problem is resolved.

If documentation and product are acceptable, but your facility either has no LN2 freezer, or insufficient LN2 storage space for the frozen CLEVECORD product, the CCBC dry shipper can be used for temporary storage. Inform CCBC that return of the dry shipper will be delayed for purpose of temporary product storage on site.

If storage for more than 48 hours is required, add fresh LN2 to the tank inside the dry shipper to keep the product frozen until a completely satisfactory resolution for long-term storage and / or use of the frozen product has been reached. Confirm the temperature probe and data logger are properly installed as per step II.f, to ensure continued temperature monitoring.

III PREPARATION

      a. Coordination with the clinical team

          i. Confirm the transplant infusion time in advance, and adjust the start time for thaw so that the unit is available for infusion when the recipient is ready.

          ii. Consult with the clinicians about final product volume based on the recipient’s weight and possible fluid restrictions to determine if the procedure for DMSO removal and volume reduction (Section VI.3) should be followed.

      b. Prepare the water bath and verify that the temperature is 37°C ± 1°C.

      c. Record the manufacturer information, lot number and expiration date (if applicable) of all reagents and disposables. Use only sterile materials when processing the CLEVECORD product.

      d. Preparation of Dextran 40/Albumin solution.

NOTE: Use aseptic technique in a Biological Safety Cabinet for all processing steps, including all open-container processing and all spiking of container ports.

          i. Combine 100 mL Dextran 40 solution and 100 mL 5% albumin solution in a sterile 300 mL transfer bag. Clamp the tubing with a hemostat. Prepare fresh solution on the day of transplant and store at 15-25°C.

          ii. Fit one (1) 60 mL syringe with an 18 gauge needle and draw 25 mL Dextran-40/Albumin solution from the 300 mL transfer bag.

          iii. Fit two (2) 60 mL syringes with 18 gauge needles and draw 60 mL Dextran-40/Albumin solution from the 300 mL transfer bag into each syringe.

      e. Prepare a portable container with LN2 for storage of the frozen CLEVECORD product

     f. With product and recipient files at hand, locate and remove the frozen product from storage in the LN2 freezer, or dry shipper, and verify product identity, labeling, accuracy of information, and container integrity. Two trained members of laboratory staff are required for this verification process.

      g. Remove any segment attached to the unit, place into a 2 mL cryovial and store in either vapor or liquid phase of nitrogen (at or below -150°C).

     h. Immediately transfer the product from LN2 storage into the portable LN2 container. Rest in vapor phase for 5-10 minutes prior to further manipulation.

IV PROCEDURE

Two different procedures for preparation of CLEVECORD for infusion are provided. The first procedure, referred to as the “Dilution” procedure is for dilution of thawed product, yielding ~170 mL product volume for infusion (Section IV.2 below). The second procedure, referred to as the “Dilution and Volume Reduction” procedure, involves centrifugation of thawed and diluted product, followed by supernatant removal, yielding a reduced (25-35 mL) product volume, amenable to infusion in pediatric patients (Section IV.3 below).

1. Thaw

    a. Use cryoprotective gloves. Apply personal protective gear.

    b. Open canister with the canister opening tool. Handle carefully to avoid damage to the cryobag containing the frozen CLEVECORD unit. Carefully examine the cryobag for breaks or cracks.

    c. Remove the CLEVECORD cryobag from the canister.

    d. Wipe the external surface of the cryobag with isopropyl alcohol.

    e. Place the CLEVECORD cryobag into a clean plastic zip-lock bag. Let the air out of the zip-lock bag, and close it tightly. Use a sterile plastic zip-lock bag if available.

NOTE: Wiping the external surface of the cryobag with isopropyl alcohol before placing inside the sterile zip-lock bag reduces contamination risk and allows the thawing laboratory to potentially recover the product in the case of an unexpected leak or container failure during thawing, dilution and volume reduction procedures.

    f. Place the plastic zip-lock bag containing the frozen CLEVECORD cryobag into the water bath pre-warmed at 37°C ± 1°C.

    g. Document the start time of the thawing procedure.

    h. Gently and carefully agitate the cryobag in the water bath to accelerate thawing and resuspension of the cells. Use your fingers to massage the bag to ensure uniform distribution of heat.

    i. Watch closely for any cracks or breaks, as shown by red cells leaking from the cryobag into the plastic zip-lock bag.

    j. If any leakage is seen, keep the leakage site upright to prevent further leaking while continuing to gently agitate the cryobag until the product is slushy. If feasible, point clamp the site of leakage with a hemostat. (See section VII EMERGENCY RECOVERY PROCEDURE IN THE EVENT OF A CONTAINER FAILURE for procedures for emergency recovery of the thawed cord blood cells).

    k. If no leakage is seen, remove the plastic zip-lock bag from water bath when the product is completely slushy (i.e., when all visible ice-crystals have disappeared).

    l. Document the stop time of the thawing procedure.

NOTE: The recommended expiration time of thawed CLEVECORD is 4 hours from the end time of thaw in step IV.1.1, if stored at 15-25°C.

    m. Gently dry the outside of the bag, disinfect it with alcohol, and place it inside a Biological Safety Cabinet.

VII EMERGENCY RECOVERY PROCEDURE IN THE EVENT OF A CONTAINER FAILURE

1. General Precautions

Use standard procedures and trained personnel to perform post-thaw sampling and/or bag rescue. As cryobags can be very fragile, handle the frozen cord blood bag with extreme care at every step including opening the metal containers, inspecting, thawing and/or washing. Perform all steps on lab benches, under biological safety cabinet, or another surface to prevent inadvertent drop of the frozen unit. To facilitate thawing, gradually remove the CLEVECORD unit from the liquid phase of the LN2 storage area, suspending in the vapor phase for at least five minutes prior to bringing the container to room temperature. Wipe the external surface of the cryobag with isopropyl alcohol before it is placed inside a sterile zip-lock bag. This will allow the cell laboratory to potentially recover the product in the case of an unexpected leak or container failure during thawing, dilution or volume reduction.

2. Emergency Recovery

    a. If the CLEVECORD cryobag is observed to be cracked when removed from the LN2 storage container, or if cracks or leaks occur during thawing, immediately notify Cleveland Cord Blood Center by phone at (216) 378-3032 or (216) 896-0493. Notify the transplant physician and transplant team and the laboratory director as soon as possible.

    b. The transplant physician or team will determine whether to use or discard the CLEVECORD product and whether any additional HPC, Cord Blood units should be requested.

    c. If the transplant physician or team decides that the product in the leaking cryobag could be used, the CLEVECORD unit may be recovered as follows:

       i. Obtain sterile sampling cups, sterile pipettes and syringes.

       ii. Open a sterile sampling cup and set cup in working space to receive contents of zip-lock bag.

       iii. If any contents remain within the broken CLEVECORD cryobag, remove the contents from the cryobag using sterile syringes.

       iv. Wash all contents out of the CLEVECORD cryobag and transfer contents in a new transfer bag (Rescue Bag).

       v. Using a sterile syringe, transfer 20 mL from the Dextran-40/Albumin solution in the 300 mL transfer bag into a sterile sample cup.

       vi. Using a sterile pipette, obtain 3 mL of Dextran-40/Albumin solution from the sample cup and inject into the zip-lock bag containing the remaining CLEVECORD cryobag contents that leaked when thawing.

       vii. Using a different sterile pipette, remove the CLEVECORD and Dextran-40/Albumin solution from the zip-lock bag and place in a sterile sample cup.

       viii. Repeat steps vi and vii until all remaining CLEVECORD is transferred to the sterile sample cup.

       ix. Using a sterile 20-mL syringe, draw the contents from the sterile sampling cup into the syringe. Inject the solution into the Rescue Bag.

       x. Repeat until all of the contents from the sample cup are transferred into the Rescue Bag.

       xi. Mix Rescue Bag well by inverting 180° for 10 to 15 times.

       xii. Continue with Step k in Section IV.1.
