1 RUXOLITINIB INDICATION Licensed / NICE TA386 is recommended as an option f treating disease-related splenomegaly symptoms in adults with primary myelofibrosis (also known as chronic idiopathic myelofibrosis), post polycythaemia vera myelofibrosis post essential thrombocythaemia myelofibrosis, only: in people with intermediate 2 high-risk disease, AND if the company provides ruxolitinib with the discount agreed in the patient access scheme. Licensed / Unfunded Indication Treatment of adult patients with polycythaemia vera who are resistant to intolerant of hydroxyurea. TREATMENT INTENT Palliative. Spleen and/ symptom response- the latter should be monited using the MPN-Symptom Assessment Fm (MPN-SAF) LINK PRE-ASSESSMENT Investigations to include FBC, blood film and manual differential, coagulation screen, urea, creatinine, electrolytes, liver function tests, calcium, lipid profile, glucose, amylase, urate, consider erythropoietin level if anaemic. 1. Ensure diagnosis is confirmed pri to commencing treatment by WHO BSH criteria 2. Pregnancy Test - f all women of childbearing age unless they are postmenopausal, have been sterilised undergone a hysterectomy. 3. Recd perfmance status (WHO/ECOG). 4. Recd height and weight. 5. ECG (most TKIs can affect the QT interval) 6. Consider echo in selected patients at risk of cardiac disease 7. Hepatitis B (including HBsAg and HB ce antibodies) and C testing (reactivation of HBV has been repted with ruxolitinib) 8. Consent - ensure patient has received adequate verbal and written infmation regarding their disease, treatment and potential side effects. Document in medical notes all infmation that has been given. Obtain written consent on the day of treatment. 9. Fertility - it is very imptant the patient understands the potential risk of infertility, all patients should be offered fertility advice (see fertility guidelines). Consider sperm stage/ cryopreservation in appropriate patients. 1 of 5
2 10. Consider dental assessment / Advise dental check is carried out by patient's own dental practitioner befe treatment starts. 11. Treatment should be agreed in the relevant MDT. 12. F patients prescribed al chemotherapy, ensure pre-chemotherapy counselling in line with NPSA recommendation and chemotherapy measures. DRUG REGIMEN / CYCLE FREQUENCY Platelet count Starting dose x 10 9 /L > 200 RUXOLITINIB 20mg PO twice a day continuous RUXOLITINIB 15mg PO twice a day continuous 50 - <100 RUXOLITINIB max 5mg PO twice a day continuous, titrated cautiously The starting dose should not be increased within the first 4 weeks of treatment and thereafter no me frequently than at 2 week intervals. A lower starting dose can be considered in patients with bderline anaemia (Hb<110g/l) at baseline. DOSE MODIFICATIONS Dose Reduction - Haematological counts Count Plt < 50 x 10 9 /L ANC < 0.5 x 10 9 /L Hb < 80g/L in PV Plt < 100 x 10 9 /L Hb < 100g/L in PV Stop ruxolitinib. Once recovered above these levels, resume ruxolitinib 5mg PO twice a day and gradually increased based on careful moniting of FBC including white blood cell count differential. Consider dose reduction to avoid dose interruptions f thrombocytopenia Dose Escalation If efficacy is considered insufficient and blood counts are adequate, ruxolitinib doses may be increased by a maximum of 5mg PO twice a day, up to the maximum dose of 25mg PO twice a day. Concomitant strong CYP3A4 inhibits Fluconazole When ruxolitinib is administered with strong CYP3A4 inhibits dual inhibits of CYP2C9 and CYP3A4 enzymes (e.g. fluconazole) the unit dose of ruxolitinib should be reduced by approximately 50%, administered twice a day. 2 of 5
3 Me frequent moniting (e.g. twice a week) of haematology parameters and of clinical signs and symptoms of related adverse drug reactions is recommended while on strong CYP3A4 inhibits dual inhibits of CYP2C9 and CYP3A4 enzymes. Renal impairment CrCl < 30ml/min Starting dose should be reduced by 50% administered twice a day. End-stage renal disease on haemodialysis Platelet count Starting dose x 10 9 /L > 200 RUXOLITINIB 20mg PO single dose, RUXOLITINIB 10mg PO 12 hours apart RUXOLITINIB 15mg PO single dose Administer only on haemodialysis days following dialysis. Hepatic impairment Impairment Any Starting dose should be reduced by 50% to be administered twice a day. Subsequent doses should be adjusted based on moniting of safety and efficacy. Monited FBC at least every 1-2 weeks f 6 weeks then as clinically indicated thereafter once liver function and blood counts have stabilised. Titrate dose to reduce the risk of cytopenia. MONITORING OF DISEASE RESPONSE Treatment may be continued as long as the benefit-risk remains positive. Symptoms should be monited using the MPN-SAF. Spleen size can be monited clinically (no need f regular imaging). F patients who have demonstrated some degree of clinical improvement, it is recommended that ruxolitinib be discontinued if they sustain an increase in their spleen length of 40% compared with baseline size (roughly equivalent to a 25% increase in spleen volume) and no longer have tangible improvement in disease-related symptoms. Treatment should be discontinued after 6 months if there has been no reduction in spleen size improvement in symptoms since starting therapy. See BSH guidelines f me infmation. 3 of 5
4 INVESTIGATIONS See pre-assessment above Disease moniting, per BSH guidelines. Moniting f toxicity Weekly in first month on treatment: ECG (at least one ECG following ruxolitinib initiation, if new symptoms abnmal at baseline), FBC, U&E, LFT, Bone Monthly f next 2 months: ECG as clinically indicated, FBC, U&E, LFT and Bone, glucose, amylase, 3-4 monthly: Lipids, glucose, amylase, FBC, U&E, LFT, Bone Consideration should also be given to Echo in selected patients f exclusion of pericardial effusion and assessment of left ventricular CONCURRENT MEDICATION Allopurinol 300mg PO once daily f 7 days if required Consider Aspirin 75mg PO once daily in PV MF patients with significant thrombocytosis risk of thrombosis. Consider aciclovir if previous episode of VZV reactivation. ANTI-EMETICS None required DRUG INTERACTIONS (Consult with pharmacist and refer to SPC f full details) Concomitant use of CYP3A4 inducers should be avoided (e.g. dexamethasone, phenytoin, carbamazepine, rifampicin, phenobarbital St John s Wt) as they may significantly reduce exposure to ruxolitinib, potentially increasing the risk of therapeutic failure. Caution should be taken when co-administering ruxolitinib with CYP3A4 inhibits (ketoconazole, itraconazole, viconazole, erythromycin, clarithromycin), as they could increase ruxolitinib exposure. ADVERSE EFFECTS / REGIMEN SPECIFIC COMPLICATIONS Very commonly repted: is immunosuppressive and patients are at risk of opptunistic infection. Urinary tract infections, HZV reactivation, anaemia, thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, bleeding, bruising, weight gain, hypercholesterolaemia, dizziness, headache, raised ALT, raised AST F all other adverse effects, refer to SPC. 4 of 5
