  • 2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION

    Important Administration Instructions

    ADSTILADRIN is for intravesical instillation only.

    ADSTILADRIN is not for intravenous use, topical use, or oral administration.

    2.1 Dose

    The recommended dose of ADSTILADRIN is 75 mL at a concentration of 3 x 1011 viral particles (vp)/mL instilled once every three (3) months into the bladder via a urinary catheter [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)].

    Premedication with an anticholinergic is recommended before each instillation of ADSTILADRIN.

    2.2 Preparation and Handling

    ADSTILADRIN is a non-replicating adenoviral vector-based gene therapy. Follow universal biosafety precautions for handling.

    Individuals who are immunosuppressed or immune-deficient, should not prepare, administer, or come into contact with ADSTILADRIN [see Warnings and Precautions (5)].

    ADSTILADRIN is provided as a sterile frozen suspension.

    All four vials of ADSTILADRIN must be thawed and brought to room temperature (20°C to 25°C [68°F to 77°F]) prior to use.

    WHEN THAWING AT ROOM TEMPERATURE

    Frozen ADSTILADRIN vials will thaw in approximately 3 to 5 hours outside the cardboard nest when placed at room temperature (up to 25°C [77ºF]) (8 to 10 hours inside the nest).

    WHEN THAWING IN REFRIGERATOR

    Frozen ADSTILADRIN vials will thaw in approximately 4 to 5 hours outside the cardboard nest when placed in the refrigerator (up to 8°C [46ºF]) (11 to 13 hours inside the nest). Subsequent time for bringing thawed ADSTILADRIN to room temperature is approximately 2 hours 30 minutes outside of the cardboard nest (6 hours inside the nest).

    Do not expose the vials to higher temperatures. Protect from light. DO NOT refreeze.

    The vials may be moved between refrigerator and room temperature if the total storage time at each condition is not exceeded (24 hours at room temperature and 7 days refrigerated including thawing time).

    Inspection and Preparing ADSTILADRIN for instillation

    Visually inspect all 4 vials for visible particles and discoloration. The suspension is clear to slightly opalescent and may contain opalescent flecks. Do not use if visible particles or discoloration are observed. Mix gently. Do not shake.

    Items required for instillation:

       Four (4) thawed vials of ADSTILADRIN

       Four (4) vented vial adaptors suitable for a standard 20 mLvial

       Two (2) standard 50 or 60 mL polypropylene Luer lock syringes or one (1) Luer lock syringe equal to or greater than 75 mL (max 100 mL)

       Two (2) Luer lock adaptors
       - One (1) straight, or intermittent, urethral catheter with a proximal funnel opening that will accommodate the Luer lock adapter.
       - Use only catheters made of vinyl/PVC (uncoated or coated with hydrogel), red rubber latex or silicone to instill ADSTILADRIN. Do not use catheters coated or embedded with silver or antibiotics. 

    1.  Using aseptic technique, remove the cap from an ADSTILADRIN vial and attach a vented vial adapter according to manufacturer's instructions.

    2.  Connect the syringe to the vial adaptor and withdraw the contents of the vial into the syringe. Repeat steps 1-2 for the remaining three (3) vials until 75 mL has been withdrawn into one (1) or two (2) syringes.

    • The volumes in the syringes do not have to be equal.

    3.  Discard any remaining volume according to universal precautions.

    • If unable to administer the suspension shortly after withdrawal, the solution may be stored in syringes for up to 6 hours at room temperature (20°C to 25°C [68°F to 77°F]) protected from light.

    Treat any ADSTILADRIN spills or unused portion with a virucidal agent (such as sodium hypochlorite with 0.5% active chlorine or 6% hydrogen peroxide solution) for 15 minutes. Disposable materials that have come into contact with ADSTILADRIN should be placed in biohazard containers for destruction. Non-disposable equipment may be decontaminated according to the facility's standard operating procedures. [see Patient Counseling Information (17)].

    2.3 Bladder instillation of ADSTILADRIN

    1. Premedication with an anticholinergic before each instillation of ADSTILADRIN is recommended.
    2. ADSTILADRIN must be brought to room temperature before administration [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)].
    3. Before administering ADSTILADRIN to the patient, insert one straight, or intermittent, urinary catheter with a proximal funnel opening that will accommodate the Luer lock adapter.
    4. Use only catheters made of vinyl/PVC (uncoated or coated with hydrogel), red rubber latex or silicone to instill ADSTILADRIN. Do not use catheters coated or embedded with silver or antibiotics.
    5. Use the catheter to completely empty the patient's bladder before instillation of ADSTILADRIN. Do not remove the catheter.
    6. Attach the Luer lock end of the same catheter adaptor to the syringe containing ADSTILADRIN and insert the tapered end of the catheter adaptor into the funnel opening of the catheter.
    7. Slowly instill 75 mL of ADSTILADRIN into the bladder through the catheter, ensuring that the complete volume is administered.
    8. After the instillation, ADSTILADRIN should be retained in the bladder for 1 hour. During the 1 hour dwell time, the patient should reposition approximately every 15 minutes from left to right, back and abdomen to maximize bladder surface exposure. If, during the dwell time, the patient exhibits bladder cramping or premature voiding, repositioning of the patient may be adjusted or discontinued.
    9. Evacuate ADSTILADRIN from the bladder as part of routine emptying of the bladder, or the patient may void and completely empty the bladder after 1 hour has elapsed.
    10. Voided urine should be disinfected for 15 minutes with an equal volume of virucidal agent before flushing of the toilet. [see Patient Counseling Information (17)].
  • 3 DOSAGE FORMS AND STRENGTHS

    ADSTILADRIN is a sterile, clear to opalescent suspension for intravesical instillation, supplied as single-use vials.

    ADSTILADRIN is provided in a carton containing four (4) vials. All vials have a nominal concentration of 3 × 1011 viral particles (vp)/mL. Each vial of ADSTILADRIN contains an extractable volume of not less than 20 mL.

  • 4 CONTRAINDICATIONS

    ADSTILADRIN is contraindicated in patients with prior hypersensitivity reactions to interferon alfa or to any component of the product [see Description (11)].

  • 5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

    5.1 Risk of Muscle Invasive or Metastatic Bladder Cancer with Delayed Cystectomy

    Delaying cystectomy in patients with BCG-unresponsive CIS could lead to development of muscle invasive or metastatic bladder cancer, which can be lethal. The risk of developing muscle-invasive or metastatic bladder cancer increases the longer cystectomy is delayed in the presence of persisting CIS.

    Of the patients with CIS treated with ADSTILADRIN on Study CS-003 who underwent subsequent radical cystectomy and for whom pathologic data were available, 14% (n = 6) had muscle-invasive (T2 or greater) disease at cystectomy.  Median time from persistence or recurrence of CIS to cystectomy in these patients was 235 days (range 38 to 582 days).  Two additional patients who did not undergo cystectomy experienced progression to muscle-invasive disease during the treatment period.

    If patients with CIS do not have a complete response to treatment after 3 months or if CIS recurs, consider cystectomy.

    5.2 Risk of Disseminated Adenovirus Infection

    Immunocompromised persons, including those receiving immunosuppressant therapy, may be at risk for disseminated adenovirus infection because of the possible presence of low levels of replication-competent adenovirus in ADSTILADRIN. Individuals who are immunosuppressed or immune-deficient should not come into contact with ADSTILADRIN.

  • 6 ADVERSE REACTIONS

    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 ADSTILADRIN was evaluated in Study CS-003, a multicenter, single-arm, open-label study in 157 U.S. patients [see Clinical Studies (14)] with high-risk BCG‑unresponsive NMIBC, 107 of whom had BCG-unresponsive carcinoma in situ (CIS) with or without papillary tumors.

    Patients received 75 mL (3 x 1011 vp/mL) ADSTILADRIN administered intravesically once every 3 months for up to 12 months [see Clinical Studies (14)]. All patients with an absence of high-risk recurrence or progression were offered continued treatment every 3 months beyond 12 months. The median number of instillations of ADSTILADRIN was 2 (range 1 to 5).

    Serious adverse reactions occurred in 11% of patients who received ADSTILADRIN. Serious adverse reactions occurring in >1% of patients included coronary artery disease and hematuria (blood in urine).

    Permanent discontinuation of ADSTILADRIN due to an adverse reaction occurred in 3 (1.9%) patients. Adverse reactions that resulted in permanent discontinuation of ADSTILADRIN included bladder spasm instillation site discharge, and benign neoplasm of the bladder.

    Dosage interruptions of ADSTILADRIN due to an adverse reaction occurred in 54 (34%) patients.  Adverse reactions in >10% of patients that required dosage interruption included instillation site discharge, bladder spasm, and micturition urgency.

    The most common (>10%) adverse reactions, including laboratory abnormalities (>15%), were glucose increased, instillation site discharge, triglycerides increased, fatigue, bladder spasm, micturition (urination) urgency, creatinine increased, hematuria (blood in urine), phosphate decreased, chills, dysuria, and pyrexia (fever).

    Tables 1 and 2 summarize adverse reactions and laboratory abnormalities, respectively, in patients on ADSTILADRIN in CS-003.

  • 11 DESCRIPTION

    ADSTILADRIN (nadofaragene firadenovec-vncg) is a non-replicating adenoviral vector-based gene therapy for intravesical instillation.

    It is a recombinant adenovirus serotype 5 vector containing a transgene encoding the human interferon alfa-2b (IFNα2b).

    ADSTILADRIN has a nominal concentration of 3 x 1011 vp/mL.

    A single-use vial of ADSTILADRIN contains an extractable volume of 20 mL and the following excipients: [N-(3-cholamidopropyl)-N-(3-lactobionamidopropyl)]-cholamide (Syn3) (0.95 mg/mL), citric acid monohydrate (0.01 mg/mL), glycerol (84 mg/mL), hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (7.9 mg/mL), magnesium chloride hexahydrate (0.34 mg/mL), polysorbate 80 (Tween 80) (0.48 mg/mL), sodium dihydrogen phosphate dihydrate (1.4 mg/mL), sucrose (17 mg/mL), tri-sodium citrate dihydrate (0.04 mg/mL), tromethamine (1.4 mg/mL) and Water for Injection (q.s. 1 mL).

    ADSTILADRIN is a sterile, clear to opalescent suspension, and contains no preservative.

  • 12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY

    12.1 Mechanism of Action

    ADSTILADRIN is a non-replicating adenoviral vector-based gene therapy designed to deliver a copy of a gene encoding a human interferon-alfa 2b (IFNα2b) to the bladder urothelium. Intravesical instillation of ADSTILADRIN results in cell transduction and transient local expression of the IFNα2b protein that is anticipated to have anti-tumor effects.

    12.2 Pharmacodynamics

    A Phase 1 first-in-human study was performed to determine the safety, tolerability, and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of ADSTILADRIN in 17 patients with BCG-unresponsive NMIBC. Five dose levels (3 x 109 vp/mL, 1 x 1010 vp/mL, 3 x 1010 vp/mL, 1 x 1011 vp/mL, and 3 x 1011 vp/mL; all in a dose volume of 75 mL) of ADSTILADRIN were tested and quantifiable concentrations of the pharmacodynamic marker IFNα2b protein were detected in the urine of all patients, with the exception of two patients at the lowest dose level. Measurable concentrations of urine IFNα2b protein up to Day 10 post-dose suggested expression of IFNα2b in the bladder.  In a Phase 2 study, all patients had quantifiable concentrations of IFNα2b protein in the urine at Day 2 after dosing with ADSTILADRIN at two different dose levels (1 x 1011 vp/mL and 3 x 1011 vp/mL). Measurable concentrations of urine IFNα2b protein was detected up to Day 12 post-dose. This was more common in patients at the high dose level.

    Generally, higher IFNα2b concentrations and exposure were observed with increasing doses of ADSTILADRIN.

    12.3 Pharmacokinetics

    Nonclinical data

    Human IFN protein in urine, and vector-specific DNA in blood and tissue samples, were detectable following ADSTILADRIN dosing in monkeys, with higher levels at higher doses.  All monkeys had vector-specific DNA in the bladder tissue at necropsy on Days 8 and 98 (i.e., seven days after the first and second dose, respectively). Vector-specific DNA was also detected in a limited number of monkeys in the liver, kidney and gonad.  At Day 148, only one animal showed vector-specific DNA in one tissue (kidney).

    Clinical data

    ADSTILADRIN biodistribution and shedding were investigated in two clinical studies. Only a single patient receiving a second dose in one study (Phase 2 study) at dose level of 3 x 1011 vp/mL (2.25 x 1013 vp) had measurable vector DNA in blood; no other patients in either study had measurable vector DNA at one hour post-dosing in blood. In urine, measurable vector DNA was detected in both studies. Generally, a higher frequency of detection of urine samples positive for vector-derived DNA, and persistence of vector-derived DNA, correlated with increasing dose level.

    At the dose level of 3 x 1011 vp/mL (2.25 x 1013 vp), one patient (out of 4 enrolled) had detectable levels of vector DNA at Day 14 in the Phase 1 study and 16 subjects (out of 19 at visit) had detectable levels of vector DNA at Day 12 in the Phase 2 study.

  • 13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY

    13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility

    No animal studies have been conducted to evaluate the effects of ADSTILADRIN on carcinogenesis, mutagenesis, or impairment of fertility.

    13.2 Animal Toxicology and/or Pharmacology

    In cynomolgus monkeys, two repeat intravesical administrations of ADSTILADRIN of either 2.5 x 1011 or 1.25 x 1013 viral particles (1 x 1011 or 5x1011 viral particles/mL, 90 days apart) were associated with inflammation, urothelial hyperplasia, cytoplasmic vacuolation, and focal/multifocal ulceration in the urinary bladder and irritation in the ureter and urethra at necropsy 7 days after the first and second doses. Near complete resolution of these findings was observed following the 57-day recovery period after the second administration, with minimal fibrosis in the lamina propria of the bladder in a limited number of monkeys. Both dose level groups developed antibodies to the adenovirus and human interferon protein.

  • 14 CLINICAL STUDIES

    The efficacy of ADSTILADRIN was evaluated in CS-003 (NCT02773849), an open-label, multicenter, single-arm trial in 103 adults with BCG-unresponsive, high-risk, non-muscle invasive bladder cancer with carcinoma in situ (CIS) with or without papillary tumors following transurethral resection, of whom 98 were considered evaluable for response. BCG-unresponsive high-risk NMIBC was defined as persistent disease following adequate BCG therapy, disease recurrence after an initial tumor-free state following adequate BCG therapy, or T1 disease following a single induction course of BCG. Adequate BCG was defined as the administration of at least five of six doses of an initial induction course plus either of: at least two of three doses of maintenance therapy or at least two of six doses of a second induction course. Prior to treatment, all patients had undergone transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) to remove all resectable disease (Ta and T1 components). Residual CIS (Tis components) not amenable to complete resection was allowed. The trial excluded patients with extra-vesical (i.e., urethra, ureter, or renal pelvis), muscle invasive (T2-T4), or metastatic urothelial carcinoma.

    Patients received ADSTILADRIN 75 mL intravesical instillation (3 x 1011 vp) once every three months for up to 12 months (four doses) or until unacceptable toxicity or recurrent high-grade (HG) NMIBC. Patients without evidence of HG recurrence were allowed to continue ADSTILADRIN treatment every three months.

    The major efficacy outcome measures were complete response (CR) at any time (as defined by negative results for cystoscopy [with TURBT/biopsies as applicable] and urine cytology) and duration of response. Low-grade (Ta) papillary disease was not considered a recurrence for the purposes of evaluating CR. CR was assessed at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months by cystoscopy and cytology. Random bladder biopsy of five sites was conducted in patients remaining in CR at Month 12.  Assessment of durability of CR subsequent to these evaluations was performed per local standards of care.

    The evaluable CIS study population characteristics were median age of 70 (range 44-89) with 32% >75 years of age; 88% male, 92% White. Tumor pattern at study entry was CIS with T1 (5%), CIS with high-grade Ta (19%), and CIS (76%). The median number of instillations of prior BCG was 12 (range 8 to 18).

    Efficacy results are summarized in Table 3.

  • 17 PATIENT COUNSELING INFORMATION

    Risk of Metastatic Bladder Cancer with Delayed Cystectomy

    • Inform patients that delaying cystectomy in patients with BCG-unresponsive CIS could lead to development of muscle-invasive or metastatic bladder cancer. Discuss the risk of muscle-invasive or metastatic bladder cancer and that the risk increases the longer cystectomy is delayed in the presence of persisting CIS [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].

    Risk of Disseminated Adenovirus Infection

    • Inform patients and their caregivers that treatment or contact with ADSTILADRIN in those who are immunocompromised, including those receiving immunosuppressive therapy, may increase the risk for disseminated adenovirus infection [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)].

    Shedding of ADSTILADRIN

    Inform patients and their caregivers that transient and low‑level shedding of ADSTILADRIN may occur in urine. Instruct patients and their caregivers that for 2 days following treatment, voided urine should be disinfected for 15 minutes with an equal volume of bleach before flushing [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)].
