Nanoxel is supplied as a greenish-yellow to yellow sterile lyophilized powder in the form of a cake. Reconstitute the powder prior to intravenous infusion. Each single use vial contains 60 mg of Nanoxel, 40 mg of N-(all-trans-retinoyl)-L-cysteic acid methyl ester sodium salt and 40 mg of N-(13- cis-retinoyl)-L-cysteic acid methyl ester sodium salt. The reconstituted concentration is 1 mg/mL. In the aqueous solution for infusion these constituents are soluble and form micellar nanoparticles with a size of approximately 20-40 nm.

Nanoxel Structural Formula

INDICATIONS:

Nanoxel is indicated for the treatment of:

- Nonresectable stage III, IV or V mammary carcinoma in dogs that have not received previous chemotherapy or radiotherapy.

- Resectable and nonresectable squamous cell carcinoma in dogs that have not received previous chemotherapy or radiotherapy.

DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION:

Always provide the Client Information Sheet to the dog owner with each dose administration.

Administer Nanoxel at 150 mg/m² body surface area (BSA) intravenously over 15-30 minutes, once every three weeks for up to four doses. Dose reductions of 10 mg/m² or dose delays may be used to manage adverse reactions.

Reconstitution and administration of Nanoxel

Nanoxel is supplied as a sterile powder for reconstitution before use. After reconstitution the solution contains 1 mg of paclitaxel/mL. Nanoxel should be protected from light throughout the preparation process. Nanoxel preparation should be done with aseptic technique and the reconstituted product should be used immediately.

• Obtain the desired number of vials from the refrigerator. The powder should be greenish-yellow to yellow. In case of discoloration, discard the vial. Let the vials stand protected from light at room temperature for approximately 20 to 30 minutes. The room temperature should not exceed 25°C (77°F).
• Using a sterile syringe, inject 60 mL of Lactated Ringer’s solution, USP, into a vial of Nanoxel. Pressure must be equilibrated by a needle or vial spike before injection. The Lactated Ringer’s solution should be injected slowly, directed onto the inside wall of the vial and not directly onto the powder as this will result in foaming.
• Gently swirl the vial by hand for 20 to 30 seconds. Protect from light and allow the vial to stand for 3 to 5 minutes.
• Gently and slowly swirl and/or invert the vial until the powder is completely dissolved. Do not shake, this will result in foaming. If foam develops, allow the solution to stand for several minutes. Reconstitution can continue even if all of the foam has not dissipated. If undissolved product is present, the vial should be placed on a shaker and rotated for up to 15 minutes, while protecting from light.
• The solution should be clear and greenish-yellow without visible precipitates. If precipitates or discoloration (orange-reddish) are observed, the solution should be discarded.
• Inject the appropriate amount of reconstituted Nanoxel into an empty, sterile, EVA (ethyl vinyl acetate) infusion bag. Protect the reconstituted product in the EVA infusion bag from light. The reconstituted product should be used immediately.
• Administer Nanoxel intravenously over 15-30 minutes.

Compatibility of administration sets containing DEHP (di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate) has not been demonstrated.

CONTRAINDICATIONS:

Do not use in dogs that have a neutropenia (< 2000 cells/µL) or that have a concurrent serious infection.

Do not use in dogs that are pregnant, lactating, or intended for breeding. Nanoxel is a teratogen and can affect female and male fertility. Laboratory studies in the rat have shown reduced fertility, embryotoxicity, teratogenicity, and maternal toxicity.

WARNINGS:

Nanoxel can cause severe, transient bone marrow suppression within four to seven days of administration (see ADVERSE REACTIONS ).

Nanoxel can cause gastrointestinal adverse reactions due to transient gastrointestinal mucosal cell toxicity. Monitor patients carefully for vomiting, diarrhea and dehydration. Provide supportive care as clinically indicated.

HUMAN WARNINGS:

NOT FOR USE IN HUMANS. KEEP THIS AND ALL MEDICATIONS OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.

Persons sensitive to retinoids should avoid contact with Nanoxel.

Nanoxel is cytotoxic and can cause birth defects and affect female and male fertility. Pregnant and breast feeding women should not prepare or administer the product. Wear protective gloves to prevent contact with feces, urine, vomit and saliva for three days after the dog has received treatment. Place all waste material in a plastic bag and seal before disposal.

S pecial instructions f o r preparing and administering the product:

- Nanoxel should be administered under the supervision of a veterinarian experienced in the use of cancer chemotherapeutic agents.

- Use standard measures for the safe handling of cytotoxic drugs.

PRECAUTIONS:

Avoid extravasation during intravenous administration of Nanoxel as focal tissue necrosis can occur (see ADVERSE REACTIONS ).

Drug interaction studies have not been performed. Nanoxel is metabolized by cytochrome P450 isoenzymes and is a P-glycoprotein (P-gp) substrate. Exercise caution when administering Nanoxel with medications that inhibit or induce cytochrome P450 isoenzymes or with medications that are P-gp substrates.

ADVERSE REACTIONS:

Field Study:

In a field study, 168 dogs with cancer were treated with Nanoxel at 150 mg/m² IV administered over 30 minutes, for up to four cycles, three weeks apart.

All dogs experienced at least one adverse reaction. Eighty-five percent of dogs experienced a severe adverse reaction (VCOG¹ Grade 3, 4 or 5), and 11 dogs discontinued treatment due to adverse reactions. Five dogs died and three dogs were euthanized due to adverse reactions during the study. Nanoxel has a low margin of safety, but adverse reactions were manageable with appropriate patient monitoring or supportive care. The most common adverse reactions are summarized in Table 1.

Table 1: Common Adverse Reactions in Nanoxel Treated Dogs (n=168)

^a Nine dogs had hemorrhagic diarrhea

^b Eight dogs had pyoderma and eleven had undefined skin lesions

^c One dog had hepatomegaly

^d Not related to disease progression

Adverse reactions that occurred in less than 6% of dogs during the study included leukopenia, lymphopenia, hypoproteinemia, hypoalbuminemia, hypotension, colitis, melena, hematochezia, septicemia, injection site reactions, focal necrosis associated with extravasation, transient aggression, behavioral changes, shivering, heart murmur, weakness, benign tumors, abdominal pain, dyspnea, decreased appetite, gastrointestinal ulceration, panting, tachycardia, mast cell tumor degranulation, acute tumor lysis syndromes, and possible cerebrovascular event.

In pilot studies conducted in dogs with mammary carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma treated with Paccal Vet ^® -CA1, adverse reactions were generally consistent with those reported in Table 1 and the paragraph above.

CLINICAL

Pharmacology:

Mechanism of action

Nanoxel is an antimicrotubule agent that promotes the assembly of microtubules from tubulin dimers and stabilizes microtubules by preventing depolymerization. Stabilization results in inhibition of the normal dynamic reorganization of the microtubular network that is essential for vital interphase and mitotic cellular functions. In addition, Nanoxel induces microtubule bundle formation throughout the cell cycle and induces microtubule aster formation during mitosis.

Pharmacokinetics

Similar to that observed in other animal species and in human patients, Nanoxel undergoes extensive tissue distribution in dogs. Consequently, Nanoxel follows a three-compartment model, with a rapid initial disappearance which ranges from 3 to 5 hours. However, a small proportion of the total exposure (e.g., 3 – 7% of the administered dose) may remain in the tissues from which it slowly depletes. The duration of this terminal phase may be as long as 12 hours. However, due to the very small proportion of the total dose associated with this deep compartment, no drug accumulation is observed when the drug is administered once every three weeks at an intravenous (IV) dose of 130 to 150 mg/m². Systemic drug exposure is directly proportional to dose within the dosing range of 130 to 150 mg/m².

REASONABLE EXPECTATION OF EFFECTIVENESS:

This drug is conditionally approved pending a full demonstration of effectiveness.

The following studies were used to demonstrate a reasonable expectation of effectiveness for Paccal Vet ^® -CA1 (paclitaxel for injection) for specific indications (see INDICATIONS ).

Mammary carcinoma

Clinical data from 10 dogs with advanced-stage mammary carcinoma that were treated with Nanoxel in two separate pilot studies support a reasonable expectation of effectiveness.

A single group, single-center, open label, dose escalating, clinical study in 32 dogs with solid tumors was conducted to assess the safety and pharmacokinetics of Nanoxel. Seven dogs had advanced stage mammary carcinoma. Dogs were treated once every 21 days for up to three cycles. Nanoxel was administered as an intravenous infusion over 15 to 30 minutes at an initial dose of 100 to 150 mg/m². Response to treatment was evaluated by tumor measurements (sum of the longest perpendicular diameters) prior to each treatment cycle. Complete response (CR) was defined as disappearance of all lesions, and partial response (PR) was defined as a minimum 50% decrease in the tumor measurement without the appearance of new lesions. At the study end (Day 84), one dog had CR, two had PR, and four had progressive disease (PD). Progression free survival (PFS) for the dog with a complete response was 1 year and survival was 498 days. Of the two dogs with PR, one had subsequent surgical excision of the tumor resulting in long term survival of 480 days. The other dog with PR had PFS and survival of 131 days. The dogs with PD had PFS of 20-56 days and survival of 40-56 days.

In a separate study in dogs with cancer, three dogs with metastatic mammary carcinoma were treated with Nanoxel. Treatment with Nanoxel resulted in PR in two of three dogs with metastatic mammary tumors and PFS of 84 and 258 days.

Collectively, six of the 10 dogs with mammary carcinoma that were treated with Nanoxel were assessed as responders (complete or partial response), including three responding cases with PFS greater than four months and one additional dog whose response to Nanoxel allowed subsequent surgical excision of the tumor resulting in long term control.

Squamous ce l l carcinoma

Clinical data from 17 dogs with resectable or nonresectable squamous cell carcinoma treated with Nanoxel in two separate pilot studies support a reasonable expectation of effectiveness.

A single group, multi-center, open label clinical study, was conducted in 14 dogs with resectable or nonresectable squamous cell carcinoma. Lesion locations included oral/tonsil, prepuce, nose/nares, and carpus. Four dogs had metastatic disease, one dog had previous chemotherapy, one dog had previous radiation therapy and one dog had previous surgery. Dogs were treated once every three weeks (one cycle) for up to four cycles. Nanoxel was administered as an intravenous infusion over 15 to 30 minutes at an initial dose of 150 mg/m². Dose reductions or dose delays were used to manage severe adverse reactions (VCOG-CTCAE grade 3-5). Response to treatment was evaluated by tumor measurements prior to each cycle. One dog died prior to the first tumor response measurement (Day 8), and three dogs were lost to follow up during the study. Two dogs had stable disease (SD) that was maintained through study end (Day 84), and were progression free on 91 and 144 days (time of last contact). Progression free survival (PFS) ranged from 21-63 days for dogs that developed progressive disease (n=8) during the study.

A single group, single-center, open label, dose escalating, clinical study in 32 dogs with solid tumors was conducted to assess the safety and pharmacokinetics of Nanoxel. Three dogs had nonresectable oral squamous cell carcinoma, and two of these three dogs also had metastatic disease. Dogs were treated once every three weeks (one cycle) for up to four cycles. Nanoxel was administered as an intravenous infusion over 15 to 30 minutes at an initial dose of 150 mg/m². Response to treatment was evaluated by tumor measurements (sum of the longest perpendicular diameters) prior to each cycle. Complete response (CR) was defined as disappearance of all lesions, and partial response (PR) was defined as a minimum 50% decrease in the tumor measurements without the appearance of new lesions. At study end (Day 84), one dog had CR, one had PR, and one had progressive disease (PD, progressed at Day 64). The dog with PR was progression free until Day 260, and the dog with a CR was alive at the time of last contact (Day 388).

Collectively, two of the 17 dogs with squamous cell carcinoma that were treated with Nanoxel were assessed as responders (CR or PR), and two dogs had stable disease (SD) that was maintained through study end (Day 84). The dog with CR at study end had a PFS of 388 days and the dog with PR at study end had PFS of 260 days. The SD may represent a clinically relevant response, and dogs with SD had PFS of 91 and 144 days. PFS ranged from 21-64 days for dogs that developed PD (n=9) during the study.

ANIMAL SAFETY:

In the multidose target animal safety study, Nanoxel demonstrated a narrow margin of safety.

All dogs that received Nanoxel experienced Nanoxel related toxicities. No dogs died, required euthanasia or discontinued treatment prior to the end of the study.

Twenty-four dogs (8 dogs per group, 4 males and 4 females) were administered either intravenous Lactated Ringer’s Solution as a placebo, or Nanoxel at 130 mg/m² or 150 mg/m² once every three weeks (one cycle) for four cycles. Nanoxel caused lethargy, depression, weight loss, decreased feed intake, anorexia, vomiting, diarrhea, hematochezia, melena, alopecia, whisker loss, focal dermatitis, focal ulcerative dermatitis, skin wounds of undetermined origin, focal inflammation after subcutaneous injection of antibiotics, conjunctivitis, oligospermia, decreases in hematology variables and injection site swelling.

Three dogs in the 130 mg/m² group and three dogs in the 150 mg/m² group became systemically ill after the first dose of Nanoxel. Clinical signs included anorexia, depression, pale mucous membranes, vomiting, diarrhea, hematochezia, and fever. One dog had clinical signs of shock (pale and cyanotic mucous membranes, slow capillary refill time, hypothermia). Hematology changes included leukopenia (n=4), neutropenia (n=4) and lymphopenia (n=5). Two dogs in the 130 mg/m² group and three dogs in the 150 mg/m² group required supportive care with intravenous fluids and systemic antibiotics. These dogs recovered within four days after the onset of clinical signs.

Nanoxel related hematology changes included leukopenia, neutropenia (Grades 1-3)¹, lymphopenia, monocytopenia, thrombocytopenia (Grade 1-2), anemia (Grade 1), and decreases in hemoglobin, mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), and mean corpuscular volume (MCV). The nadir for hematology variables occurred one to four days after Nanoxel administration and recovery was observed within three weeks. Prothrombin time (PT), partial thromboplastin time (PTT) and buccal mucosal bleeding time (BMBT) were not affected by Nanoxel.

During the study dogs in the Nanoxel groups had a higher frequency of vomiting, diarrhea, hematochezia and melena compared to the control group dogs. The increase in vomiting and diarrhea usually occurred within four days of Nanoxel administration. Feed consumption decreased or was absent up to 3 days after Nanoxel administration, and body weight decreased in the first week, followed by an increase during the second and third weeks.

Dogs in the Nanoxel groups had lower albumin, increased fibrinogen, and higher creatine kinase compared to the control group.

Injection site swelling occurred more frequently in the Nanoxel groups, was mild and resolved within one day after treatment. There were no occurrences of extravasation during the study. Whisker loss and facial alopecia were noted in seven 130 mg/m² Nanoxel group dogs and all 150 mg/m² Nanoxel group dogs. Coat thinning was noted in three 130 mg/m² Nanoxel group dogs and seven 150 mg/m² paclitaxel group dogs. Whisker loss, facial alopecia and coat thinning started three weeks after the second treatment.

Necropsy occurred seven days after the last administration of Nanoxel. Toxicologically relevant changes noted in the dogs in the Nanoxel groups included patchy facial alopecia, whisker loss, thinning of hair coat, dermal ulcerations, focal fat necrosis associated with subcutaneous injections, inflammation and thrombosis at catheter placement sites, oligospermia, mild mineralization and smooth muscle hypertrophy in the media of the aorta, hypercellular bone marrow, and extramedullary splenic hematopoiesis indicative of a normal regenerative response. On histopathology regenerative hair follicles were noted in dogs in the Nanoxel groups, indicating the alopecia may not be permanent. The hypercellular bone marrow may be a response to the daily blood collections for clinical pathology following the last treatment or a recovery response to the bone marrow suppressive effects of Nanoxel.

Additional information on conditional approval can be found at http://www.fda.gov, search "conditional approval".

What is Nanoxel?

• Nanoxel is a conditionally approved cancer drug used to treat nonresectable stage III, IV or V mammary carcinoma in dogs that have not received chemotherapy or radiotherapy, and to treat resectable (removable by surgery) and nonresectable (not removable by surgery) squamous cell carcinoma in dogs that have not received chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
• The active ingredient in Nanoxel is Nanoxel, a substance that affects or stops growth of rapidly dividing cells, killing tumor cells.

What do I need to tell my veterinarian before my dog is treated with Nanoxel?

Tell your veterinarian:

• About other medications your pet is taking, including prescription drugs, over the counter drugs, heartworm preventatives, flea & tick medications, and vitamins and supplements, including herbal medications.
• If your dog is pregnant, nursing puppies, or you intend to breed him/her.
• If your dog has an ongoing infection

How is my dog given Nanoxel?

• Treatment is given by trained personnel at the veterinary clinic and administration is supervised by a veterinarian experienced in cancer treatment in dogs.
• Nanoxel is given to your dog through an intravenous catheter (intravenous = IV, directly into the bloodstream). Administration takes about 15-30 minutes, and is repeated every three weeks for up to four treatments.​​

How will Nanoxel affect my dog?

• Nanoxel is intended to treat your dog’s cancer. As with other cancer treatments, your veterinarian cannot predict whether your dog’s cancer will respond to Nanoxel.
• Regular check-ups by your veterinarian are necessary to determine whether your dog is responding as expected, and to decide whether your dog should continue to receive Nanoxel.

What are some possible side effects of Nanoxel?

The most frequent side effects are:

• Decreased white blood cell count

• Vomiting and diarrhea

• Loss of appetite

• Tiredness or lethargy

• Temporary, patchy facial hair loss including whisker loss, and thinning of the coat

Your veterinarian will evaluate bloodwork and physical examinations regularly to monitor for side effects.

Contact your veterinarian immediately if you notice any of the following changes in your dog:

• Fever

• Extreme tiredness

• Repeated vomiting or diarrhea

• Redness and swelling at the IV catheter site

There are other side effects that may occur. For more information about side effects ask your veterinarian.

How do I care for my dog after it is treated with Nanoxel?

• Because Nanoxel is a cancer treatment drug, extra care must be taken when handling and cleaning up after your dog for three days after treatment with Nanoxel.
• Cleaning up after your dog:
  

  – Avoid direct contact with urine, stool, vomit and saliva for three days after your dog is treated with Nanoxel.
  

  – When cleaning up urine, stool, vomit or saliva you should wear disposable gloves and collect the contaminated material with disposable absorptive material (such as paper towels) and place them into a plastic bag. Carefully remove the gloves and place them in the bag and tie or fasten it securely. Wash your hands thoroughly afterwards.
  

  – You should not wash any items accidently soiled with urine, stool, vomit or saliva from your dog with other laundry for three days after treatment.
  

  – Do not let your dog urinate or defecate in areas where people may come in direct contact with the urine or stool.
