5 DARZALEX (daratumumab) + Rd dosing Important information 1 DARZALEX should be administered by a healthcare professional with immediate access to emergency equipment and appropriate medical support to manage infusion reactions if they occur Recommended dosage and schedule 1 If a planned dose of DARZALEX is missed, administer the dose as soon as possible and adjust the dosing schedule accordingly, maintaining the treatment interval DARZALEX is given as an intravenous (IV) infusion after dilution at 16 mg/kg of actual body weight, with pre- and post-infusion medications See table on next page Revlimid (lenalidomide) is given orally on days 1 21 of each cycle* Dexamethasone 40 mg is given orally or IV once a week On DARZALEX infusion days, 20 mg of the dexamethasone dose was given as a pre-infusion medication and the remainder given the day after the infusion For patients on a reduced dexamethasone dose, the entire 20-mg dose was given as a DARZALEX pre-infusion medication Revlimid is a registered trademark of Celgene Corporation. * Please refer to the lenalidomide Prescribing Information for more detailed information about lenalidomide dosing. Dexamethasone dosing may be modified for various patient populations. Please see the DARZALEX Prescribing Information for more information. Infusion Reactions DARZALEX can cause severe infusion reactions. Approximately half of all patients experienced a reaction, most during the first infusion. Infusion reactions can also occur with subsequent infusions. Nearly all reactions occurred during infusion or within 4 hours of completing an infusion. Prior to the introduction of post-infusion medication in clinical trials, infusion reactions occurred up to 48 hours after infusion. Severe reactions have occurred, including bronchospasm, hypoxia, dyspnea, hypertension, laryngeal edema and pulmonary edema. Signs and symptoms may include respiratory symptoms, such as nasal congestion, cough, throat irritation, as well as chills, vomiting and nausea. Less common symptoms were wheezing, allergic rhinitis, pyrexia, chest discomfort, pruritus, and hypotension. Pre-medicate patients with antihistamines, antipyretics, and corticosteroids. Frequently monitor patients during the entire infusion. Interrupt infusion for reactions of any severity and institute medical management as needed. Permanently discontinue therapy for life-threatening (Grade 4) reactions. For patients with Grade 1, 2, or 3 reactions, reduce the infusion rate when re-starting the infusion. To reduce the risk of delayed infusion reactions, administer oral corticosteroids to all patients following DARZALEX infusions. Patients with a history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease may require additional post-infusion medications to manage respiratory complications. Consider prescribing short- and long-acting bronchodilators and inhaled corticosteroids for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. 5

25 DARZALEX (daratumumab) administration Preparation for administration 1 Prepare the solution for infusion using aseptic technique as follows: Calculate the dose (mg), total volume (ml) of DARZALEX solution required, and number of DARZALEX vials needed based on patient s actual body weight Check that the DARZALEX solution is colorless to pale yellow. Do not use if opaque particles, discoloration, or foreign particles are present Remove a volume of 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP, from the infusion bag/container that is equal to the required volume of DARZALEX solution Withdraw necessary amount of DARZALEX solution and dilute to appropriate volume by adding to the infusion bag/container containing 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP. Infusion bags/containers must be made of either polyvinylchloride (PVC), polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), or polyolefin blend (PP+PE). Dilute under appropriate conditions. Discard any unused portion left in the vial Gently invert the bag/container to mix the solution. Do not shake Parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration, whenever solution and container permit. The diluted solution may develop very small, translucent to white proteinaceous particles, as DARZALEX is a protein. Do not use if visibly opaque particles, discoloration, or foreign particles are observed Since DARZALEX does not contain a preservative, administer the diluted solution immediately at room temperature, 15 C to 25 C (59 F to 77 F), and in room light. Diluted solution may be kept at room temperature for a maximum of 15 hours (including infusion time) If not used immediately, the diluted solution can be stored prior to administration for up to 24 hours at refrigerated conditions, 2 C to 8 C (36 F to 46 F), and protected from light.

26 DARZALEX (daratumumab) administration (cont d) Administration 1 If stored in the refrigerator, allow the solution to come to room temperature. Administer diluted solution by intravenous (IV) infusion using an infusion set fitted with a flow regulator and with an in-line, sterile, nonpyrogenic, low protein-binding polyethersulfone (PES) filter (pore size 0.22 or 0.2 micrometer). Administration sets must be made of either polyurethane (PU), polybutadiene (PBD), PVC, PP, or PE Do not store any unused portion of the infusion solution for reuse. Any unused product or waste material should be disposed of in accordance with local requirements Do not infuse DARZALEX concomitantly in the same IV line with other agents Adverse Reactions In patients who received DARZALEX as monotherapy, the most frequently reported adverse reactions (incidence 20%) were: infusion reactions (48%), fatigue (39%), nausea (27%), back pain (23%), pyrexia (21%), cough (21%), and upper respiratory tract infection (20%). Serious adverse reactions were reported in 51 (33%) patients. The most frequent serious adverse reactions were pneumonia (6%), general physical health deterioration (3%), and pyrexia (3%). DARZALEX as monotherapy: treatmentemergent Grade 3-4 hematology laboratory abnormalities 20% was lymphopenia (30%). In patients who received DARZALEX in combination with pomalidomide and dexamethasone, the most frequent adverse reactions (>20%) were fatigue (50%), infusion reactions (50%), upper respiratory tract infection (50%), cough (43%), diarrhea (38%), constipation (33%), dyspnea (33%), nausea (30%), muscle spasms (26%), back pain (25%), pyrexia (25%), insomnia (23%), arthralgia (22%), dizziness (21%), and vomiting (21%).

27 Infusion rates for DARZALEX (daratumumab) Slower rate of infusion for the first DARZALEX dose is recommended, as infusion reactions are more likely to occur with the first infusion 1 * Use a dilution volume of 500 ml only if there were no Grade 1 (mild) or greater infusion reactions during the first 3 hours of the first infusion. Otherwise, continue to use a dilution volume of 1000 ml and instructions for the first infusion. Use a modified initial rate for subsequent infusions (ie, third infusion onwards) only if there were no Grade 1 (mild) or greater infusion reactions during a final infusion rate of 100 ml/hour in the first two infusions. Otherwise, continue to use instructions for the second infusion. Consider incremental escalation of the infusion rate only in the absence of infusion reactions. Infusion Reactions DARZALEX can cause severe infusion reactions. Approximately half of all patients experienced a reaction, most during the first infusion. Infusion reactions can also occur with subsequent infusions. Nearly all reactions occurred during infusion or within 4 hours of completing an infusion. Prior to the introduction of post-infusion medication in clinical trials, infusion reactions occurred up to 48 hours after infusion. Severe reactions have occurred, including bronchospasm, hypoxia, dyspnea, hypertension, laryngeal edema and pulmonary edema. Signs and symptoms may include respiratory symptoms, such as nasal congestion, cough, throat irritation, as well as chills, vomiting and nausea. Less common symptoms were wheezing, allergic rhinitis, pyrexia, chest discomfort, pruritus, and hypotension. Pre-medicate patients with antihistamines, antipyretics, and corticosteroids. Frequently monitor patients during the entire infusion. Interrupt infusion for reactions of any severity and institute medical management as needed. Permanently discontinue therapy for life-threatening (Grade 4) reactions. For patients with Grade 1, 2, or 3 reactions, reduce the infusion rate when re-starting the infusion. Median infusion duration decreased considerably after the first infusion across all trials (n=820) 1 First infusion was 7.0 hours Second infusion was 4.3 hours Subsequent infusions were 3.5 hours Administration of pre- and post-infusion medications is recommended to reduce the risk of infusion reactions (see pages 40 41) 1 27

28 48% of patients experienced an infusion reaction Across all trials (n=820), most infusion reactions occurred during the first infusion 1 For 46% of patients, infusion reactions (any grade) occurred with the first infusion, 2% of patients with the second infusion, and 3% of patients with subsequent infusions 1 The median time to onset of an infusion reaction was 1.4 hours (range: 0.02 to 72.8 hours) 1 Incidence of infusion modification due to reactions was 42% 1 DARZALEX (daratumumab) can cause severe infusion reactions. Severe (Grade 3) infusion reactions included bronchospasm, dyspnea, laryngeal edema, pulmonary edema, hypoxia, and hypertension. Other adverse infusion reactions (any grade; 5%) were nasal congestion, cough, chills, throat irritation, vomiting, and nausea 1 Infusion reactions of any grade or severity may be managed by interruption, modification, and/or discontinuation of the infusion 1 Infusion reactions by grade (n=820) 1 Infusion Reactions (cont d) To reduce the risk of delayed infusion reactions, administer oral corticosteroids to all patients following DARZALEX infusions. Patients with a history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease may require additional post-infusion medications to manage respiratory complications. Consider prescribing short- and longacting bronchodilators and inhaled corticosteroids for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. 28

29 Management of infusion reactions Infusion reactions of any grade or severity may be managed by interruption, modification, and/or discontinuation of the infusion 1 For infusion reactions of any grade/severity, immediately interrupt the DARZALEX (daratumumab) infusion and manage symptoms. Management of infusion reactions may further require reduction in the rate of infusion or treatment discontinuation of DARZALEX as outlined below Infusion Reactions DARZALEX can cause severe infusion reactions. Approximately half of all patients experienced a reaction, most during the first infusion. Infusion reactions can also occur with subsequent infusions. Nearly all reactions occurred during infusion or within 4 hours of completing an infusion. Prior to the introduction of post-infusion medication in clinical trials, infusion reactions occurred up to 48 hours after infusion. Severe reactions have occurred, including bronchospasm, hypoxia, dyspnea, hypertension, laryngeal edema and pulmonary edema. Signs and symptoms may include respiratory symptoms, such as nasal congestion, cough, throat irritation, as well as chills, vomiting and nausea. Less common symptoms were wheezing, allergic rhinitis, pyrexia, chest discomfort, pruritus, and hypotension. Pre-medicate patients with antihistamines, antipyretics, and corticosteroids. Frequently monitor patients during the entire infusion. Interrupt infusion for reactions of any severity and institute medical management as needed. Permanently discontinue therapy for life-threatening (Grade 4) reactions. For patients with Grade 1, 2, or 3 reactions, reduce the infusion rate when re-starting the infusion. To reduce the risk of delayed infusion reactions, administer oral corticosteroids to all patients following DARZALEX infusions. Patients with a history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease may require additional post-infusion medications to manage respiratory complications. Consider prescribing short- and longacting bronchodilators and inhaled corticosteroids for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. 29

30 Important information before administering DARZALEX (daratumumab) Interference with serological testing 1 DARZALEX binds to CD38 found on red blood cells (RBCs) and results in a positive Indirect Antiglobulin Test (Indirect Coombs test) that may persist for up to 6 months after the last DARZALEX infusion Reminders Type and screen patients before starting DARZALEX Inform blood banks when a patient is taking DARZALEX Identify any DARZALEX -treated blood samples Ask patients to tell other healthcare professionals that they have taken DARZALEX Adverse Reactions The most frequently reported adverse reactions (incidence 20%) in clinical trials were: infusion reactions, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, fatigue, nausea, diarrhea, constipation, vomiting, muscle spasms, arthralgia, back pain, pyrexia, chills, dizziness, insomnia, cough, dyspnea, peripheral edema, peripheral sensory neuropathy and upper respiratory tract infection. In patients who received DARZALEX in combination with lenalidomide and dexamethasone, the most frequently reported adverse reactions (incidence 20%) were: upper respiratory tract infection (65%), infusion reactions (48%), diarrhea (43%), fatigue (35%), cough (30%), muscle spasms (26%), nausea (24%), dyspnea (21%) and pyrexia (20%). The overall incidence of serious adverse reactions was 49%. Serious adverse reactions were pneumonia (12%), upper respiratory tract infection (7%), influenza (3%) and pyrexia (3%). DARZALEX in combination with lenalidomide and dexamethasone: treatment-emergent Grade 3-4 hematology laboratory abnormalities 20% were neutropenia (36%) and lymphopenia (42%). Prophylaxis for herpes zoster reactivation 1 Initiate antiviral prophylaxis to prevent herpes zoster reactivation within 1 week of starting DARZALEX and continue for 3 months following treatment Pre-infusion medications are recommended 1 Pre-infusion medications To reduce the risk of infusion reactions, administer approximately 1 3 hours prior to every infusion as follows: for monotherapy, intravenous (IV) methylprednisolone 100 mg, or equivalent. Following the second infusion, the dose of corticosteroid may be reduced (oral or IV methylprednisolone 60 mg) for combination therapy, IV dexamethasone 20 mg prior to the first infusion and IV or oral dexamethasone 20 mg prior to subsequent infusions oral antipyretics (acetaminophen 650 mg to 1000 mg), plus oral or IV antihistamine (diphenhydramine 25 mg to 50 mg or equivalent) Note: On DARZALEX infusion days in combination therapy clinical trials, 20 mg of the dexamethasone dose was given as a pre-infusion medication. For patients on a reduced dexamethasone dose, the entire 20-mg dose was given as a DARZALEX pre-infusion medication. In patients who received DARZALEX in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone, the most frequently reported adverse reactions (incidence 20%) were: peripheral sensory neuropathy (47%), infusion reactions (45%), upper respiratory tract infection (44%), diarrhea (32%), cough (27%), peripheral edema (22%), and dyspnea (21%). The overall incidence of serious adverse reactions was 42%. Serious adverse reactions were upper respiratory tract infection (5%), diarrhea (2%) and atrial fibrillation (2%). DARZALEX in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone: treatment-emergent Grade 3-4 hematology laboratory abnormalities 20% were lymphopenia (41%) and thrombocytopenia (28%). 30

31 Post-infusion medications are recommended Post-infusion medications To reduce the risk of delayed infusion reactions, administer after every infusion as follows 1 : oral corticosteroid for monotherapy, 20 mg methylprednisolone or equivalent dose of an intermediate-acting or long-acting corticosteroid in accordance with local standards on each of the 2 days following all DARZALEX (daratumumab) infusions (beginning the day after the infusion) for combination therapy, 20 mg of methylprednisolone or equivalent the day after the DARZALEX infusion; however, if a background regimen-specific corticosteroid (eg, dexamethasone) is administered the day after the DARZALEX infusion, additional post-infusion medications may not be needed Note: For patients with a history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, consider prescribing short- and long-acting bronchodilators and inhaled corticosteroids. Following the first 4 infusions, if the patient experiences no major infusion reactions, these additional inhaled post-infusion medications may be discontinued. Interference with Determination of Complete Response Daratumumab is a human IgG kappa monoclonal antibody that can be detected on both the serum protein electrophoresis (SPE) and immunofixation (IFE) assays used for the clinical monitoring of endogenous M-protein. This interference can impact the determination of complete response and of disease progression in some patients with IgG kappa myeloma protein. In patients who received DARZALEX as monotherapy, the most frequently reported adverse reactions (incidence 20%) were: infusion reactions (48%), fatigue (39%), nausea (27%), back pain (23%), pyrexia (21%), cough (21%), and upper respiratory tract infection (20%). Serious adverse reactions were reported in 51 (33%) patients. The most frequent serious adverse reactions were pneumonia (6%), general physical health deterioration (3%), and pyrexia (3%). DARZALEX as monotherapy: treatment-emergent Grade 3-4 hematology laboratory abnormalities 20% was lymphopenia (30%). In patients In patients who received DARZALEX in combination with pomalidomide and dexamethasone, the most frequent adverse reactions (>20%) were fatigue (50%), infusion reactions (50%), upper respiratory tract infection (50%), cough (43%), diarrhea (38%), constipation (33%), dyspnea (33%), nausea (30%), muscle spasms (26%), back pain (25%), pyrexia (25%), insomnia (23%), arthralgia (22%), dizziness (21%), and vomiting (21%). The overall incidence of serious adverse reactions was 49%. Serious adverse reactions reported in 5% patients included pneumonia (7%). DARZALEX in combination with pomalidomide and dexamethasone: treatment-emergent hematology Grade 3-4 laboratory abnormalities 20% were anemia (30%), neutropenia (36%, 46%), and lymphopenia (45%, 26%). 31
