4 CONTRAINDICATIONS

Temozolomide is contraindicated in patients with a history of serious hypersensitivity reactions to:

Reactions to Temozolomide have included anaphylaxis [see Adverse Reactions (6.2)].

5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

5.1 Myelosuppression

Myelosuppression, including pancytopenia, leukopenia and anemia, some with fatal outcomes, have occurred with Temozolomide [see Adverse Reactions ( 6.1, 6.2)].

In MK-7365-006, myelosuppression usually occurred during the first few cycles of therapy and was generally not cumulative. The median nadirs occurred at 26 days for platelets (range: 21 to 40 days) and 28 days for neutrophils (range: 1 to 44 days). Approximately 10% of patients required hospitalization, blood transfusion, or discontinuation of therapy due to myelosuppression.

Geriatric patients and women have been shown in clinical trials to have a higher risk of developing myelosuppression.

Obtain a complete blood count and monitor ANC and platelet counts before initiation of treatment and as clinically indicated during treatment. When Temozolomide Capsules is used in combination with radiotherapy, obtain a complete blood count prior to initiation of treatment, weekly during treatment, and as clinically indicated [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.1, 2.2, 2.3)].

For severe myelosuppression, withhold Temozolomide Capsules and then resume at same or reduced dose, or permanently discontinue, based on occurrence [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.1, 2.2, 2.3)].

5.2 Hepatotoxicity

Fatal and severe hepatotoxicity have been reported in patients receiving Temozolomide Capsules. Perform liver tests at baseline, midway through the first cycle, prior to each subsequent cycle, and approximately two to four weeks after the last dose of Temozolomide Capsules.

5.3 PneumocystisPneumonia

Pneumocystispneumonia (PCP) can occur in patients receiving Temozolomide. The risk of PCP is increased in patients receiving steroids or with longer treatment regimens of Temozolomide Capsules.

For patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma, provide PCP prophylaxis for all patients during the concomitant phase. Continue PCP prophylaxis in patients who experience lymphopenia, until resolution to Grade 1 or less [see Dosage and Administration (2.1)].

Monitor all patients receiving Temozolomide Capsules for the development of lymphopenia and PCP.

5.4 Secondary Malignancies

The incidence of secondary malignancies is increased in patients treated with Temozolomide -containing regimens. Cases of myelodysplastic syndrome and secondary malignancies, including myeloid leukemia, have been observed following Temozolomide Capsules administration.

5.5 Embryo-Fetal Toxicity

Based on findings from animal studies and its mechanism of action, Temozolomide can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. Adverse developmental outcomes have been reported in both pregnant patients and pregnant partners of male patients. Oral administration of Temozolomide to rats and rabbits during the period of organogenesis resulted in embryolethality and polymalformations at doses less than the maximum human dose based on body surface area.

Advise pregnant women and females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to a fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with Temozolomide and for at least 6 months after the final dose. Because of potential risk of genotoxic effects on sperm, advise male patients with female partners of reproductive potential to use condoms during treatment with Temozolomide and for 3 months after the final dose. Advise male patients not to donate semen during treatment with Temozolomide and for 3 months after the final dose [see Use in Specific Populations ( 8.1, 8.3)].

5.6 Exposure to Opened Capsules

Advise patients not to open, chew or dissolve the contents of the Temozolomide capsules. Swallow capsules whole with a glass of water. If a capsule becomes damaged, avoid contact of the powder contents with skin or mucous membranes. In case of powder contact, wash affected area with water immediately [see Dosage and Administration (2.4)] . If Temozolomide capsules must be opened or the contents must be dissolved, this should be done by a professional trained in safe handling of hazardous drugs using appropriate equipment and safety procedures.

6 ADVERSE REACTIONS

The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling:

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.

Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma

The safety of Temozolomide capsules was evaluated in Study MK-7365-051 [see Clinical Studies (14.1)].

Severe or life-threatening reactions occurred in 49% of patients treated with Temozolomide capsules; the most common were fatigue (13%), convulsions (6%), headache (5%), and thrombocytopenia (5%).

The most common adverse reactions (≥20%) in patients treated with Temozolomide were alopecia, fatigue, nausea, anorexia, headache, constipation, and vomiting.

Hematological Toxicities for Advanced Gliomas

In clinical trial experience with 110 to 111 females and 169 to 174 males (depending on measurements), females experienced higher rates of Grade 4 neutropenia (ANC <0.5 x 10 9/L) and thrombocytopenia (<20 x 10 9/L) than males in the first cycle of therapy (12% vs. 5% and 9% vs. 3%, respectively).

In the entire safety database for which hematologic data exist (N=932), 7% (4/61) and 9.5% (6/63) of patients >70 years experienced Grade 4 neutropenia or thrombocytopenia in the first cycle, respectively. For patients ≤70 years, 7% (62/871) and 5.5% (48/879) experienced Grade 4 neutropenia or thrombocytopenia in the first cycle, respectively. Pancytopenia, leukopenia, and anemia also occurred.

Adverse reactions with Temozolomide for injection

Adverse reactions that were reported in 35 patients who received Temozolomide for injection that were not reported in patients who received Temozolomide capsules were pain, irritation, pruritus, warmth, swelling, and erythema at infusion site; petechiae and hematoma.

6.2 Postmarketing Experience

The following adverse reactions have been identified during post-approval use of Temozolomide capsules. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to the drug exposure.

Dermatologic: Toxic epidermal necrolysis and Stevens-Johnson syndrome.

Immune System: Hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis. Erythema multiforme, which resolved after discontinuation of Temozolomide and, in some cases, recurred upon rechallenge.

Hematopoietic: Prolonged pancytopenia, which may result in aplastic anemia and fatal outcomes.

Hepatobiliary: Fatal and severe hepatotoxicity, elevation of liver enzymes, hyperbilirubinemia, cholestasis, and hepatitis.

Infections: Serious opportunistic infections, including some cases with fatal outcomes, can occur with bacterial, viral (primary and reactivated), fungal, and protozoan organisms.

Pulmonary: Interstitial pneumonitis, pneumonitis, alveolitis, and pulmonary fibrosis.

Endocrine: Diabetes insipidus

8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS

8.1 Pregnancy

Risk Summary

Based on findings from animal studies and its mechanism of action [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.1)] . Temozolomide can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. Available postmarketing reports describe cases of spontaneous abortions and congenital malformations, including polymalformations with central nervous system, facial, cardiac, skeletal, and genitourinary system anomalies with exposure to Temozolomide during pregnancy. These cases report similar adverse developmental outcomes to those observed in animal studies. Administration of Temozolomide to rats and rabbits during the period of organogenesis caused numerous external, internal, and skeletal malformations at doses less than the maximum human dose based on body surface area (see Data) . Advise pregnant women of 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% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively.

Data

Animal Data

Five consecutive days of oral administration of Temozolomide at doses of 75 and 150 mg/m 2(0.38 and 0.75 times the human dose of 200 mg/m 2) in rats and rabbits, respectively, during the period of organogenesis (Gestation Days 8-12) caused numerous malformations of the external and internal organs and skeleton in both species. In rabbits, Temozolomide at the 150 mg/m 2dose (0.75 times the human dose of 200 mg/m 2) caused embryolethality as indicated by increased resorptions.

8.2 Lactation

There are no data on the presence of Temozolomide or its metabolites in human milk, the effects on a breastfed child, or the effects on milk production. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions, including myelosuppression from Temozolomide in the breastfed children, advise women not to breastfeed during treatment with Temozolomide and for 1 week after the final dose.

8.3 Females and Males of Reproductive Potential

Temozolomide can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1)].

Pregnancy Testing

Verify pregnancy status in females of reproductive potential prior to initiating Temozolomide [see Use in Specific Population (8.1)].

Contraception

Females

Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with Temozolomide and for 6 months after the last dose.

Males

Because of the potential for embryofetal toxicity and genotoxic effects on sperm cells, advise male patients with pregnant partners or female partners of reproductive potential to use condoms during treatment with Temozolomide and for 3 months after the last dose [see Use in Specific Population (8.1), Nonclinical Toxicology (13.1)]. Advise male patients not to donate semen during treatment with Temozolomide and for 3 months after the last dose.

Infertility

Temozolomide may impair male fertility [see Nonclinical Toxicology (13.1)] . Limited data from male patients show changes in sperm parameters during treatment with Temozolomide; however, no information is available on the duration or reversibility of these changes.

8.4 Pediatric Use

Safety and effectiveness of Temozolomide have not been established in pediatric patients. Safety and effectiveness of Temozolomide capsules were assessed, but not established, in 2 open-label studies in pediatric patients aged 3 to 18 years. In one study, 29 patients with recurrent brain stem glioma and 34 patients with recurrent high-grade astrocytoma were enrolled. In a second study conducted by the Children’s Oncology Group (COG), 122 patients were enrolled, including patients with medulloblastoma/PNET (29), high grade astrocytoma (23), low grade astrocytoma (22), brain stem glioma (16), ependymoma (14), other CNS tumors (9), and non-CNS tumors (9). The adverse reaction profile in pediatric patients was similar to adults.

8.5 Geriatric Use

In MK-7365-051, 15% of patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma were 65 years and older. This study did not include sufficient numbers of patients aged 65 years and older to determine differences in effectiveness from younger patients. No overall differences in safety were observed between patients ≥65 years and younger patients.

The CATNON trial did not include sufficient numbers of patients aged 65 years and older to determine differences in safety or effectiveness when compared to younger patients.

In MK-7365-0006, 4% of patients with refractory anaplastic astrocytoma were 70 years and older. This study did not include sufficient numbers of patients aged 70 years and older to determine differences in effectiveness from younger patients. Patients 70 years and older had a higher incidence of Grade 4 neutropenia (25%) and Grade 4 thrombocytopenia (20%) in the first cycle of therapy than patients less than 70 years of age [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)and Adverse Reactions (6.1)].

In the entire safety database for which hematologic data exist (N=932), 7% (4/61) and 10% (6/63) of patients >70 years experienced Grade 4 neutropenia or thrombocytopenia in the first cycle, respectively. For patients ≤70 years, 7% (62/871) and 6% (48/879) experienced Grade 4 neutropenia or thrombocytopenia in the first cycle, respectively. Pancytopenia, leukopenia, and anemia also occurred.

8.6 Renal Impairment

No dosage adjustment is recommended for patients with creatinine clearance (CLcr) of 36 to 130 mL/min/m 2[see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]. The recommended dose of Temozolomide has not been established for patients with severe renal impairment (CLcr <36 mL/min/m 2) or for patients with end-stage disease on dialysis.

8.7 Hepatic Impairment

No dosage adjustment is recommended for patients with mild to moderate hepatic impairment (Child Pugh class A and B) [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]. The recommended dose of Temozolomide has not been established for patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child Pugh class C).

10 OVERDOSAGE

Dose-limiting toxicity was myelosuppression and was reported with any dose but is expected to be more severe at higher doses. An overdose of 2000 mg per day for 5 days was taken by one patient and the adverse reactions reported were pancytopenia, pyrexia, multi-organ failure, and death. There are reports of patients who have taken more than 5 days of treatment (up to 64 days), with adverse reactions reported including myelosuppression, which in some cases was severe and prolonged, and infections and resulted in death. In the event of an overdose, monitor complete blood count and provide supportive measures as necessary.

11 DESCRIPTION

Temozolomide is an alkylating drug. The chemical name of temozolomide is 3,4-dihydro-3­methyl-4-oxoimidazo[5,1-d]- as-tetrazine-8-carboxamide. The structural formula is:

structure

The material is a white to light tan/light pink powder with a molecular formula of C 6H 6N 6O 2and a molecular weight of 194.15. The molecule is stable at acidic pH (< 5) and labile at pH > 7; hence Temozolomide can be administered orally. The prodrug, temozolomide, is rapidly hydrolyzed to the active 5-(3-methyltriazen-1-yl) imidazole-4-carboxamide (MTIC) at neutral and alkaline pH values, with hydrolysis taking place even faster at alkaline pH.

Temozolomide capsules USP:

Temozolomide capsules for oral use contains either 5 mg, 20 mg, 100 mg, 140 mg, 180 mg, or 250 mg of temozolomide.

The inactive ingredients for Temozolomide capsules USP are as follows:

The body of the capsules is made of gelatin, and is opaque white. The cap is also made of gelatin, and the colors vary based on the dosage strength. The capsule body is imprinted with pharmaceutical branding ink, which contains shellac, propylene glycol, strong ammonia solution, potassium hydroxide, and black iron oxide.

FDA approved dissolution test specifications differ from USP.

12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY

12.1 Mechanism of Action

Temozolomide is not directly active but undergoes rapid nonenzymatic conversion at physiologic pH to the reactive compound 5-(3-methyltriazen-1-yl)-imidazole-4-carboxamide (MTIC). The cytotoxicity of MTIC is thought to be primarily due to alkylation of DNA, mainly at the O 6and N 7positions of guanine, which causes DNA double strand breaks and results in programmed cell death.

12.2 Pharmacodynamics

Temozolomide exposure-response relationships and the time course of pharmacodynamic response are unknown.

12.3 Pharmacokinetics

Following a single oral dose of 150 mg/m 2, the mean C maxis 7.5 mcg/mL for Temozolomide and 282 ng/mL for MTIC.

The mean AUC is 23.4 mcg•hr/mL for Temozolomide and 864 ng•hr/mL for MTIC.

Following a single 90-minute intravenous infusion of 150 mg/m 2, the mean C maxvalue for Temozolomide was 7.3 mcg/mL and for MTIC was 276 ng/mL. The mean AUC value for Temozolomide was 24.6 mcg•hr/mL and for MTIC was 891 ng•hr/mL.

Temozolomide exhibits linear kinetics over the therapeutic dosing range of 75 mg/m 2/day to 250 mg/m 2/day.

Absorption

The median T maxis 1 hour.

Effect of Food

The mean C maxand AUC decreased by 32% and 9%, respectively, and median T maxincreased by 2-fold (from 1 to 2.25 hours) when Temozolomide capsules were administered after a modified high-fat breakfast (587 calories comprised of 1 fried egg, 2 strips of bacon, 2 slices of toast, 2 pats of butter, and 8 oz whole milk).

Distribution

Temozolomide has a mean (CV%) apparent volume of distribution of 0.4 L/kg (13%). The mean percent bound of drug-related total radioactivity is 15%.

Elimination

Clearance of temozolomide is about 5.5 L/hr/m 2and the mean elimination half-life is 1.8 hours.

Metabolism

Temozolomide is spontaneously hydrolyzed at physiologic pH to the active species, MTIC and to temozolomide acid metabolite. MTIC is further hydrolyzed to 5-amino-imidazole-4-carboxamide (AIC), which is known to be an intermediate in purine and nucleic acid biosynthesis, and to methylhydrazine, which is believed to be the active alkylating species. Cytochrome P450 enzymes play a minor role in the metabolism of temozolomide and MTIC. Relative to the AUC of temozolomide, the exposure to MTIC and AIC is 2.4% and 23%, respectively.

Excretion

Approximately 38% of the administered temozolomide total radioactive dose is recovered over 7 days: 38% in urine and 0.8% in feces. The majority of the recovered radioactivity in urine is unchanged temozolomide (6%), AIC (12%), temozolomide acid metabolite (2.3%), and unidentified polar metabolite(s) (17%).

Specific Populations

No clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of temozolomide were observed based on age (range: 19 to 78 years), gender, smoking status (smoker vs. non-smoker), creatinine clearance (CLcr) of 36 to 130 mL/min/m 2, or mild to moderate hepatic impairment (Child Pugh class A and B). The pharmacokinetics of temozolomide has not been studies in patients with CLcr < 36 mL/min/m 2, end-stage renal disease on dialysis, or severe hepatic impairment (Child Pugh class C).

Drug Interaction Studies

Clinical Studies and Model-Informed Approaches

No clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of temozolomide or MTIC were observed when co-administered with ranitidine.

No clinically significant differences in the clearance of temozolomide or MTIC were predicted when co-administered with the following drugs: valproic acid, dexamethasone, prochlorperazine, phenytoin, carbamazepine, ondansetron, histamine-2-receptor antagonists, or phenobarbital.

13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY

13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility

Temozolomide is carcinogenic in rats at doses less than the maximum recommended human dose. Temozolomide induced mammary carcinomas in both males and females at doses 0.13 to 0.63 times the maximum human dose (25-125 mg/m2) when administered orally on 5 consecutive days every 28 days for 6 cycles. Temozolomide also induced fibrosarcomas of the heart, eye, seminal vesicles, salivary glands, abdominal cavity, uterus, and prostate, carcinomas of the seminal vesicles, schwannomas of the heart, optic nerve, and harderian gland, and adenomas of the skin, lung, pituitary, and thyroid at doses 0.5 times the maximum daily dose. Mammary tumors were also induced following 3 cycles of temozolomide at the maximum recommended daily dose.

Temozolomide is a mutagen and a clastogen. In a reverse bacterial mutagenesis assay (Ames assay), temozolomide increased revertant frequency in the absence and presence of metabolic activation. Temozolomide was clastogenic in human lymphocytes in the presence and absence of metabolic activation.

Temozolomide impairs male fertility. Temozolomide caused syncytial cells/immature sperm formation at doses of 50 and 125 mg/m 2(0.25 and 0.63 times the human dose of 200 mg/m 2) in rats and dogs, respectively, and testicular atrophy in dogs at 125 mg/m 2.

13.2 Animal Toxicology and/or Pharmacology

Toxicology studies in rats and dogs identified a low incidence of hemorrhage, degeneration, and necrosis of the retina at temozolomide doses equal to or greater than 125 mg/m 2(0.63 times the human dose of 200 mg/m 2). These changes were most commonly seen at doses where mortality was observed.

14 CLINICAL STUDIES

14.1 Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma

The efficacy of Temozolomide was evaluated in MK-7365-051 (NCT00006353), a randomized (1:1), multicenter, open-label trial. Eligible patients were required to have newly diagnosed glioblastoma. Patients were randomized to receive either radiation therapy alone or concomitant Temozolomide 75 mg/m 2once daily starting the first day of radiation therapy and continuing the last day of radiation therapy for 42 days (with a maximum of 49 days), followed by Temozolomide 150 mg/m 2or 200 mg/m 2once daily on Days 1 to 5 of each 28-day cycle, starting 4 weeks after the end of radiation therapy and continuing for 6 cycles. In both arms, focal radiation therapy was delivered as 60 Gy/30 fractions and included radiation to the tumor bed or resection site with a 2­ to 3-cm margin. PCP prophylaxis was required during the concomitant phase, regardless of lymphocyte count and continued until recovery of lymphocyte count to grade 1 or less. The major efficacy outcome measure was overall survival.

A total of 573 patients were randomized, 287 to Temozolomide and radiation therapy and 286 to radiation therapy alone. At the time of disease progression, Temozolomide was administered as salvage therapy in 161 patients of the 282 (57%) in the radiation therapy alone arm, and 62 patients of the 277 (22%) in the Temozolomide and radiation therapy arm.

The addition of concomitant and maintenance Temozolomide to radiation therapy for the treatment of patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma showed a statistically significant improvement in overall survival compared to radiotherapy alone ( Figure 1). The hazard ratio (HR) for overall survival was 0.63 (95% CI: 0.52, 0.75) with a log-rank P< 0.0001 in favor of the Temozolomide arm. The median overall survival was 14.6 months in the Temozolomide arm and 12.1 months for radiation therapy alone arm.

14.2 Anaplastic Astrocytoma

Newly Diagnosed Anaplastic Astrocytoma

The efficacy of Temozolomide for the adjuvant treatment of newly diagnosed anaplastic astrocytoma was derived from studies of Temozolomide in the published literature. Temozolomide was evaluated in CATNON (NCT00626990), a randomized, open-label, multicenter trial, where the major efficacy outcome measure was overall survival.

Refractory Anaplastic Astrocytoma

The efficacy of Temozolomide was evaluated in Study MK-7365-006, a single-arm, multicenter trial. Eligible patients had anaplastic astrocytoma at first relapse and a baseline Karnofsky performance status (KPS) of 70 or greater. Patients had previously received radiation therapy and may also have previously received a nitrosourea with or without other chemotherapy. Fifty-four patients had disease progression on prior therapy with both a nitrosourea and procarbazine, and their malignancy was considered refractory to chemotherapy (refractory anaplastic astrocytoma population). Temozolomide capsules were given on Days 1 to 5 of each 28-day cycle at a starting dose of 150 mg/m 2/day. If ANC was ≥1.5 x 10 9/L and platelet count was ≥100 x 10 9/L at the nadir and on Day 1 of the next cycle, the Temozolomide dose was increased to 200 mg/m 2/day. The major efficacy outcome measure was progression-free survival at 6 months and the additional efficacy outcome measures were overall survival and overall response rate.

In the refractory anaplastic astrocytoma population (n=54), the median age was 42 years (range: 19 to 76); 65% were male; and 72% had a KPS of > 80. Sixty-three percent of patients had surgery other than a biopsy at the time of initial diagnosis. Of those patients undergoing resection, 73% underwent a subtotal resection and 27% underwent a gross total resection. Eighteen percent of patients had surgery at the time of first relapse. The median time from initial diagnosis to first relapse was 13.8 months (range: 4.2 months to 6.3 years).

In the refractory anaplastic astrocytoma population, the overall response rate (CR+PR) was 22% (12 of 54 patients) and the complete response rate was 9% (5 of 54 patients). The median duration of all responses was 50 weeks (range: 16 to 114 weeks) and the median duration of complete responses was 64 weeks (range: 52 to 114 weeks). In this population, progression-free survival at 6 months was 45% (95% CI: 31%, 58%) and progression-free survival at 12 months was 29% (95% CI: 16%, 42%). Median progression-free survival was 4.4 months. Overall survival at 6 months was 74% (95% CI: 62%, 86%) and 12-month overall survival was 65% (95% CI: 52%, 78%). Median overall survival was 15.9 months.
