Panitumumab (14 day) Ver 1.2
Description
Chemotherapy Protocol COLORECTAL CANCER PANITUMUMAB (14 day) This regimen may require funding Regimen Colorectal Cancer – Panitumumab (14 day) Indication Metastatic colorectal cancer that is positive for the wild type KRAS genotype and that has progressed after failure of oxaliplatin and irinotecan based therapy or who are intolerant to these agents. WHO performance status 0, 1, 2 Toxicity Drug Adverse Effect Panitumumab Infusion related reactions, interstitial lung disease, skin reactions, electrolyte abnormalities, fatigue, abdominal pain, constipation The adverse effects listed are not exhaustive. Please refer to the relevant Summary of Product Characteristics for full details. Monitoring Drugs Prior to starting therapy confirm a positive wild type KRAS status FBC, LFT’s and U&E’s prior to day one of cycle one and every 6 – 8 weeks thereafter Dose Modifications The dose modifications listed are for haematological, liver and renal function only. Dose adjustments may be necessary for other toxicities as well. In principle all dose reductions due to adverse drug reactions should not be reescalated in subsequent cycles without consultant approval. It is also a general rule for chemotherapy that if a third dose reduction is necessary treatment should be stopped. Version 1.2 (May 2014) Page 1 of 5 Colorectal – Panitumumab (14) Please discuss all dose reductions / delays with the relevant consultant before prescribing, if appropriate. The approach may be different depending on the clinical circumstances. The following is a general guide only. Haematological Prior to prescribing on day one of cycle one the following criteria must be met; Criteria Neutrophil Platelets Eligible Level equal to or more than 1.5x109/L equal to or more than 100x109/L Consider blood transfusion if patient symptomatic of anaemia or has a haemoglobin of less than 8g/dL For haematological toxicity, if the neutrophil count is less than 1.5 109/L or the platelet count less than 100 109/L, delay treatment until these levels are achieved. The decision to continue treatment should be made at the consultant’s discretion. Hepatic / Renal Impairment Drug Panitumumab Hepatic No information available Renal No information available Other Allergic or hypersensitivity reactions have occurred during the administration of panitumumab. For a NCI-CTC grade 1 reaction reduce the infusion rate by 50%. For a NCI-CTC grade 2 reaction, stop the infusion and administer supportive therapies as indicated. Once the reaction has resolved to NCI-CTC grade 1 or below resume the infusion at 50% of the previous rate. For a NCI-CTC grade 3 or 4 toxicity stop the infusion immediately and disconnect the tubing from the patient. Administer appropriate supportive therapies. Once recovered, patients should not receive panitumumab again. Once the rate has been reduced it should not be increased on subsequent infusions. If a second reaction occurs on the slower infusion rate the infusion should be stopped and no further treatment given. An acniform skin rash occurs in over 90% of those receiving panitumumab. The onset is normally within three weeks of starting therapy and often resolves after week twelve. For a NCI-CTC grade 1-2 reaction use symptomatic treatments such as topical or oral antibiotics and continue with the panitumumab. For a NCI-CTC grade 3 toxicity delay treatment until the toxicity resolves to NCI-CTC grade 2 or below. Reinstate therapy using 50% of the original dose. If the reaction does not recur escalate the dose in 25% increments as tolerated until the recommended dose is reached. If the reactions do not resolve to less than NCI-CTC grade 2 after withholding up to two doses or if the skin toxicity recurs or becomes intolerable at 50% of the original dose discontinue treatment. Version 1.2 (May 2014) Page 2 of 5 Colorectal – Panitumumab (14) UV radiation may worsen skin reactions. Sun safety practices should be followed during and for up to two months after the end of treatment. Stop treatment if there is a confirmed pneumonitis.

Description
Chemotherapy Protocol COLORECTAL CANCER FLUOROURACIL, FOLINIC ACID (Modified de Gramont), OXALIPLATIN and PANITUMUMAB (FOLFOX-Panitumumab) Regimen • Colorectal Cancer– Fluorouracil, Folinic Acid (modified de Gramont), Oxaliplatin and Panitumumab (FOLFOX-Panitumumab) Indication • First metastatic colorectal cancer where the following criteria are met; - the tumour is wild type RAS - no prior exposure to either cetuximab or panitumumab • WHO Performance status 0, 1 Toxicity Drug Fluorouracil Oxaliplatin Panitumumab Adverse Effect Palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia, diarrhoea, mucositis, chest pain Peripheral neuropathy (cumulative), acute laryngopharyngeal dysasthesia (increase duration of infusion) Infusion related reactions, interstitial lung disease, skin reactions, electrolyte abnormalities, fatigue, abdominal pain, constipation The adverse effects listed are not exhaustive. Please refer to the relevant Summary of Product Characteristics for full details. Monitoring Regimen • FBC, LFT’s and U&E’s prior to day one of treatment. • Prior to starting therapy confirm a positive wild type RAS status • Patients with complete or partial dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) deficiency are at increased risk of severe and fatal toxicity during treatment with fluorouracil. All patients should be tested for DPD deficiency before initiation (cycle 1) to minimise the risk of these reactions Dose Modifications The dose modifications listed are for haematological, liver and renal function only. Dose adjustments may be necessary for other toxicities as well. Version 1.1 (November 2020) Page 1 of 8 Colorectal – Fluorouracil, Folinic Acid (MdG), Oxaliplatin, Panitumumab (FOLFOX-Panitumumab) In principle all dose reductions due to adverse drug reactions should not be reescalated in subsequent cycles without consultant approval. It is also a general rule for chemotherapy that if a third dose reduction is necessary treatment should be stopped. Please discuss all dose reductions / delays with the relevant consultant before prescribing, if appropriate. The approach may be different depending on the clinical circumstances. The following is a general guide only. Haematological Consider blood transfusion or erythropoietin if the patient is symptomatic of anaemia or has a haemoglobin of less than 8g/dL For haematological toxicity, if the neutrophil count is less than 1.5 109/L or the platelet count is less than 75 109/L, delay treatment until these levels are achieved. Reinitiate therapy at the full dose for up to a seven day delay or, for a delay of more than seven days, with 75% of the original dose for thrombocytopenia. If neutropenia is the issue then after seven days omit the bolus fluorouracil for this and subsequent cycles. If a further delay is necessary despite omitting the bolus fluorouracil then reduce the dose of both the infusional fluorouracil and oxaliplatin to 80% of the original dose. If the delay is twenty-one days or more stop therapy. The panitumumab dose rarely needs to be reduced for haematological toxixity but may be delayed. There is no need to dose adjust the folinic acid for haematological counts. Liver Impairment Drug Fluorouracil Bilirubin μmol/L More than 85 AST/ALT units More than 180 Dose (% of original dose) Contra-indicated In moderate hepatic impairment reduce the initial dose by 33%. In severe hepatic impairment reduce the initial dose by 50%. The dose may be increased as tolerated. Oxaliplatin Limited information available but there is probably little need to adjust the dose. Panitumumab No information available Version 1.1 (November 2020) Page 2 of 8 Colorectal – Fluorouracil, Folinic Acid (MdG), Oxaliplatin, Panitumumab (FOLFOX-Panitumumab) Renal Impairment Drug Creatinine Clearance (ml/min) Dose (% of original dose) Fluorouracil Consider dose adjustment in sever renal impairment Oxaliplatin For moderate renal impairment, treat at normal dose, and monitor renal function. Dose adjust according to toxicity. If the CrCl is less than 20m/min then dose reduce Panitumumab No information available Other Dose reductions or interruptions in therapy are not necessary for those toxicities that are considered unlikely to be serious or life threatening. For example, alopecia, altered taste or nail changes. Dose limiting toxicities include diarrhoea, abdominal pain, emesis, stomatitis, palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia and neurosensory toxicities among others. If any NCI-CTC grade 1 toxicity occurs treatment should be continued, without interruption, at the full dose. For toxicities at NCI-CTC grade 3 or above treatment should be withheld until recovery to NCI-CTC grade 1 then re-started if medically appropriate. If recovery takes 21 days or longer stop treatment. Fluorouracil Diarrhoea occurring for the first time at NCI-CTC grade 2 should be approached by withholding the fluorouracil until it has resolved to NCI-CTC grade 1. Treatment can then be re-started at full dose. Treatment should again be delayed on development of a second NCI-CTC grade 2 diarrhoea and the fluorouracil re-started at 75% of the original dose when it has resolved to NCI-CTC grade 1. After resolution of a third episode of NCI-CTC grade 2 diarrhoea to NCI-CTC grade 1 the fluorouracil should be re-started using 50% of the original dose. On appearance of a NCI-CTC grade 3 diarrhoea withhold fluorouracil until it has resolved to NCI-CTC grade 1 and re-start treatment using 75% of the original dose. After a second episode at NCI-CTC grade 3 wait until the diarrhoea has resolved to NCI-CTC grade 1 and resume the fluorouracil using 50% of the original dose. For a third appearance of NCI-CTC grade 3 diarrhoea or the development of grade 4 toxicity at ant time stop fluorouracil therapy. Version 1.1 (November 2020) Page 3 of 8 Colorectal – Fluorouracil, Folinic Acid (MdG), Oxaliplatin, Panitumumab (FOLFOX-Panitumumab) Oxaliplatin If the neurosensory toxicity is NCI-CTC grade 1–2 and lasts less than 7 days administer full dose oxaliplatin. If the toxicity is NCI-CTC grade 2 and persists for more than 7 days reduce the oxaliplatin dose to 75mg/m2. Oxaliplatin should be discontinued for neurosensory toxicities NCI-CTC grade 3 or above. If NCI-CTC grade 3-4 diarrhoea or stomatitis recurs despite appropriate reduction in the fluorouracil dose the oxaliplatin dose should be reduced to 75mg/m2. There are rare case reports of acute interstitial lung disease or lung fibrosis in association with oxaliplatin. Where an unexplained respiratory symptom occurs stop treatment until pulmonary investigations have been conducted to exclude an interstitial cause. Panitumumab An acniform skin rash occurs in over 90% of those receiving panitumumab. The onset is normally within three weeks of starting therapy and often resolves after week twelve. Please refer to local guidelines for the treatment of this reaction. Alternatively, for a NCI-CTC grade 1-2 reaction use symptomatic treatments such as topical or oral antibiotics and continue with the panitumumab. For a NCI-CTC grade 3 toxicity delay treatment until the toxicity resolves to NCI-CTC grade 2 or below. Re-instate therapy using 50% of the original dose. If the reaction does not recur escalate the dose in 25% increments as tolerated until the recommended dose is reached. If the reactions do not resolve to less than NCI-CTC grade 2 after withholding up to two doses or if the skin toxicity recurs or becomes intolerable at 50% of the original dose discontinue treatment. UV radiation may worsen skin reactions. Sun safety practices should be followed during and for up to two months after the end of treatment. Stop treatment if there is a confirmed pneumonitis.

Haematological Prior to prescribing on day one of cycle one the following criteria must be met; Criteria Neutrophil Platelets Eligible Level equal to or more than 1.5x109/L equal to or more than 100x109/L Consider blood transfusion if patient symptomatic of anaemia or has a haemoglobin of less than 8g/dL If the neutrophils are less than 1.5x109/L and/or the platelets are less than 100x109/L then delay treatment for seven days If the counts recover at this time restart the irinotecan at 80% of the original dose. If a fourteen day delay is required to allow counts to recover or there are two separate delays of seven days during treatment consider reducing the dose of irinotecan to 50% of the original dose or stopping treatment. This is one of the few regimens where asymptomatic low nadir neutrophil counts are an indication for dose modification. Where this figure is less than 0.5x109/L or where there has been an episode of febrile neutropenia the subsequent irinotecan dose should be reduced to 80% of the original dose. There is little need to adjust the dose of cetuximab for haematological toxicity. Hepatic / Renal Impairment Deteriorating liver or kidney function may be a sign of disease progression or drug toxicity. Drug Cetuximab Irinotecan Hepatic Renal Administer only when the Administer only where the serum transaminases are 5xULN or creatinine is 1.5xULN or below below and the bilirubin is 1.5xULN or below For the 350mg/m2 dose if the No adjustments are necessary bilirubin is 26 to 51umol/L although there is limited inclusive prescribe 200mg/m2. If information the bilirubin is above 51umol/L consider stopping therapy. Other Cetuximab Allergic or hypersensitivity reactions have occurred during the administration of cetuximab. For a NCI-CTC grade 1 reactions reduce the infusion rate by 50% (the total should not exceed 240 minutes). For a NCI-CTC grade 2 reaction, stop the infusion and administer supportive therapies as indicated. Once the reaction has Version 1.3 (October 2020) Page 2 of 7 Colorectal – Cetuximab-Irinotecan (14 day) resolved to NCI-CTC grade 1 or below then resume the infusion at 50% of the previous rate. For a NCI-CTC grade 3 or 4 toxicity stop the infusion immediately and disconnect the tubing from the patient. Administer appropriate supportive therapies. Once recovered, patients should not receive cetuximab again. Once the rate has been reduced it should not be increased on subsequent infusions. If a second reaction occurs on the slower infusion rate the infusion should be stopped and no further treatment given. An acniform skin rash occurs in over 70% of those receiving cetuximab. The onset is normally within three weeks of starting therapy and often resolves after week twelve. For a NCI-CTC grade 1-2 reaction use symptomatic treatments such as topical or oral antibiotics and continue with the cetuximab. For a NCI-CTC grade 3 toxicity delay treatment until the toxicity resolves to NCI-CTC grade 2 or below. If this occurs within fourteen days resume cetuximab at the same dose. If more than fourteen days is required stop treatment. If the NCI-CTC grade 3 toxicity occurs for a second and third time the cetuximab may again be delayed for up to and including fourteen days with concomitant dose reductions. Cetuximab dose reductions are permanent. The cetuximab must be discontinued if more than two consecutive infusions are withheld or a fourth episode of NCI-CTC grade 3 skin toxicity develops or a NCI-CTC grade 4 toxicity at any time. UV radiation may worsen skin reactions. Sun safety practices should be followed during and for up to two months after the end of treatment. Stop treatment if there is a confirmed pneumonitis. Irinotecan Irinotecan is associated with a number of toxic reactions. The next cycle of treatment should not be administered until all toxicities have resolved to 0 or 1 of the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria scale (NCI-CTC) within fourteen days. Diarrhoea must have resolved completely. Where a NCI-CTC grade 2 to 4 nonhaematological event has occurred the irinotecan dose must be reduced to 200mg/m2 in the first instance. If a second episode occurs despite this dose reduction delay until the symptoms have resolved and re-start the irinotecan at 150mg/m2. Stop treatment for a third episode.
