4    CLINICAL PARTICULARS

4.1    Therapeutic indications

For induction of remission in acute myeloid leukaemia in adults and for other acute leukaemias of adults and children including prophylaxis and treatment of CNS involvement (meningeal leukaemia).

4.2 Posology and method of administration

Cytarabine 20 mg/ml, solution for injection/infusion is intended for intravenous, intramuscular, subcutaneous or intrathecal use.

Subcutaneous injection is generally well tolerated, and may be recommended when used in maintenance therapy.

Treatment with cytarabine should be initiated by, or be in consultation with, a doctor with extensive experience in treatment with cytostatics. Only general recommendations can be given, as acute leukaemia is almost exclusively treated with combinations of cytostatics.

Dosage recommendations, may be made according to body weight (mg/kg) or according to BSA(mg/m ). Dose recommendation may be converted from those in terms of bodyweight to those related to surface area by means of nomograms.

1) Remission induction:

Induction therapy dosage and schedule vary depending on the regimen used.

a)    Continuous treatment:

The following dose regimens have been used for continuous treatment in remission induction.

i)    Rapid injection - 2 mg/kg/day is a judicious starting dose. Administer for 10 days. Obtain daily blood counts. If no antileukaemic effect is noted and there is no apparent toxicity, increase to 4 mg/kg/day and maintain until therapeutic response or toxicity is evident. Almost all patients can be carried to toxicity with these doses.

ii)    0.5-1.0 mg/kg/day may be given in an infusion of up to 24 hours duration. Results from one-hour infusions have been satisfactory in the majority of patients. After 10 days this initial daily dose may be increased to 2 mg/kg/day subject to toxicity. Continue to toxicity or until remission occurs.

b)    Intermittent treatment:

The following dose regimens have been used for intermittent treatment in remission induction.

1)    3-5 mg/kg/day are administered intravenously on each of five consecutive days. After a two to nine-day rest period, a further course is given. Continue until response or toxicity occurs.

The first evidence of marrow improvement has been reported to occur 7-64 days (mean 28 days) after the beginning of therapy.

In general, if a patient shows neither toxicity nor remission after a fair trial, the cautious administration of higher doses is warranted. As a rule, patients have been seen to tolerate higher doses when given by rapid intravenous injection as compared with slow infusion. This difference is due to the rapid metabolism of Cytarabine and the consequent short duration of action of the high dose.

ii) Cytarabine 100-200 mg/m2 /24 hours, as continuous infusion for 5-7 days alone or in combination with other cytostatics including for instance an anthracycline has been used. Additional cycles may be administered at intervals of 2-4 weeks, until remission is achieved or unacceptable toxicity occurs.

2)    Maintenance therapy:

Maintenance dosage and schedule vary depending on the regimen used.

The following dose regimens have been used for continuous treatment following remission induction.

i)    Remissions which have been induced by cytarabine, or by other drugs, may be maintained by intravenous or subcutaneous injection of 1 mg/kg once or twice weekly.

ii)    Cytarabine has also been administered in doses of 100-200 mg/m2, as continuous infusion for 5 days at monthly intervals as monotherapy or in combination with other cytostatics.

Intrathecally

Doses between 5 and 30 mg/m2 BSA have been administered.

For the treatment of meningeal leukemia, usually a dose of 30 mg/m2 BSA is given once every 4 days until cerebrospinal fluid findings are normal, followed by one additional dose. The injection should be slow. See 4.8.

High dosage:

Cytarabine, under strict medical surveillance, is administered as monotherapy or in combination with other cytostatics, 2-3 g/m2, as intravenous infusion, for 1-3 hours every 12 hours for 2-6 days (total of 12 doses per cycle). A total treatment dose of 36 g/m2 should not be exceeded. Frequency of treatment cycles depends on the response to treatment and hematological and non-hematogological toxicity. Also refer to precautions (4.4) for treatment stopping requirements.

Paediatric patients:

Safety in infants has been not established.

Patients with hepatic and renal impairment:

Patients with impaired hepatic or renal function: Dosage should be reduced.

Cytarabine can be dialyzed. Therefore, Cytarabine should not be administered immediately before or after a dialysis.

Elderly Patients:

High dose therapy in patients > 60 years should be administered only after careful risk benefit-evaluation.

Method of administration:

For instructions on dilution of the medicinal product before administration, see section 6.6.

4.3 Contraindications

•    Hypersensitivity to the cytarabine or to any of the excipients of cytarabine injection.

•    Anaemia, leucopenia and thrombocytopenia of non-malignant aetiology ( e.g bone marrow aplasia); unless the clinician feels that such management offers the most hopeful alternative for the patient.

•    Degenerative and toxic encephalopathies, especially after the use of methotrexate or treatment with ionizing radiation.

•    During pregnancy, Cytarabine should only be administrated on strict indication, where the benefits of the drug to the mother should be weighed against possible hazards to the foetus. See 4.6.

4.4 Special warnings and precautions for use

Warnings:

Cytarabine is a potent bone marrow suppressant. Therapy should be started cautiously in patients with pre-existing drug-induced bone marrow suppression. Bone marrow examinations should be performed frequently after blasts have disappeared from the peripheral blood.

Facilities should be available for management of complications, possibly fatal, of bone marrow suppression (infection resulting from granulocytopenia and other impaired body defences, and haemorrhage secondary to thrombocytopenia).

Anaphylactic reactions have occurred with cytarabine treatment. Anaphylaxis that resulted in acute cardiopulmonary arrest and required resuscitation has been reported. This occurred immediately after the intravenous administration of Cytarabine.

Severe and at times fatal CNS, GI and pulmonary toxicity (different from that seen with conventional therapy regimens of cytarabine) has been reported following some experimental cytarabine dose schedules. These reactions include reversible corneal toxicity; cerebral and cerebellar dysfunction, usually reversible; somnolence; convulsion; severe gastro-intestinal ulceration, including pneumatosis cystoides intestinalis, leading to peritonitis; sepsis and liver abscess; and pulmonary oedema.

Cytarabine has been shown to be carcinogenic in animals. The possibility of a similar effect should be borne in mind when designing the long-term management of the patient.

Precautions:

Suspend or modify therapy when drug-induced marrow depression has resulted in a platelet count under 50,000 or a polymorphonuclear count under 1,000 per cubic mm. Counts of formed elements in the peripheral blood may continue to fall after the drug is stopped, and reach lowest values after drug-free intervals of five to seven days. If indicated, restart therapy when definite signs of marrow recovery appear (on successive bone marrow studies). Patients whose drug is withheld until 'normal' peripheral blood values are attained may escape from control.

Peripheral motor and sensory neuropathies after consolidation with high doses of cytarabine, daunorubicin, and asparaginase have occurred in adult patients with acute non lymphocytic leukemia.

Patients treated with high doses of cytarabine should be observed for neuropathy since dose schedule alterations may be needed to avoid irreversible neurologic disorders.

Severe and sometimes fatal pulmonary toxicity, adult respiratory distress syndrome and pulmonary oedema have occurred following high dose schedules with cytarabine therapy.

When intravenous doses are given quickly, patients are frequently nauseated and may vomit for several hours afterwards. This problem tends to be less severe when the drug is infused.

Abdominal tenderness (peritonitis) and guaiac positive colitis, with concurrent neutropenia and thrombocytopenia, have been reported in patients treated with conventional doses of cytarabine in combination with other drugs. Patients have responded to nonoperative medical management.

Delayed progressive ascending paralysis resulting in death has been reported in children with AML following intravenous cytarabine at conventional doses in combination with other drugs.

Both hepatic and renal function should be monitored during cytarabine therapy.

In patients with pre-existing liver impairment cytarabine should be administered only with utmost care.

Periodic checks of bone marrow, liver and kidney functions should be performed in patients receiving cytarabine.

Like other cytotoxic drugs, cytarabine may induce hyperuricaemia secondary to rapid lysis of neoplastic cells. The clinician should monitor the patient's blood uric acid level and be prepared to use such supportive and pharmacological measures as may be necessary to control this problem.

Immunosuppressant Effects/Increased Susceptibility to Infections.

Administration of live or live-attenuated vaccines in patients immunocompromised by chemotherapeutic agents including cytarabine, may result in serious or fatal infections. Vaccination with a live vaccine should be avoided in patients receiving cytarabine. Killed or inactivated vaccines may be administered; however, the response to such vaccines may be diminished.

High-dose: The risk of CNS side effects is higher in patients who have previously had CNS treatment as chemotherapy intrathecally or radiation therapy.

Concurrent granulocyte-transfusion should be avoided as severe respiratory insufficiency have been reported.

Cases of cardiomyopathy with subsequent death has been reported following experimental high dose therapy with cytarabine in combination with cyclophosphamide when used for bone marrow transplant preparation.

Sodium

Cytarabine 20 mg/ml: 1 ml solution contains 6,8 mg sodium chloride equivalent to 2,67 mg/ml sodium. To be taken into consideration by patients on a controlled sodium diet.

4.5 Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction

5-Fluorocytosine should not be administered with cytarabine as the therapeutic efficacy of 5-Fluorocytosine has been shown to be abolished during such therapy.

Reversible decreases in steady-state plasma digoxin concentrations and renal glycoside excretion were observed in patients receiving beta-acetyldigoxin and chemotherapy regimens containing cyclophosphamide, vincristine and prednisone with or without cytarabine or procarbazine. Steady-state plasma digitoxin concentrations did not appear to change. Therefore, monitoring of plasma digoxin levels may be indicated in patients receiving similar combination chemotherapy regimens. The utilisation of digitoxin for such patients may be considered as an alternative.

An in-vitro interaction study between gentamicin and cytarabine showed a cytarabine related antagonism for the susceptibility of K. pneumoniae strains. In patients on cytarabine being treated with gentamicin for a K.pneumoniae infection, a lack of a prompt therapeutic response may indicate the need for re-evaluation of antibacterial therapy.

Due to immunosuppresive action of cyarabine Infection - Viral, bacterial, fungal, parasitic, or saprophytic infections, in any location in the body may be associated with the use of cytarabine alone or in combination with other immunosuppressive agents following immunosuppressant doses that affect cellular or humoral immunity. These infections may be mild, but can be severe and at times fatal.

4.6 Fertility, Pregnancy and lactation

Pregnancy:

Cytarabine is known to be teratogenic in some animal species. The use of cytarabine in women who are, or who may become, pregnant should be undertaken only after due consideration of the potential benefits and hazards.

Men and women have to use effective contraception during and up to 6 months after treatment.

Lactation:

This product should not normally be administered to patients who are pregnant or to mothers who are breast-feeding.

Fertility:

Fertility studies to assess the reproductive toxicity of cytarabine have not been conducted. Gonadal suppression, resulting in amenorrhea or azoospermia, may occur in patients taking cytarabine therapy, especially in combination with the alkylating agents. In general, these effects appear to be related to dose and length of therapy and may be irreversible (see section 4.8). Given that cytarabine has a mutagenic potential which could induce chromosomal damage in the human spermatozoa, males undergoing cytarabine treatment and their partner should be advised to use a reliable contraceptive method.

4.7 Effects on ability to drive and use machines

Cytarabine has no influence on the ability to drive and use machines.

Nevertheless, patients receiving chemotherapy may have an impaired ability to drive or operate machinery and should be warned of the possibility and advised to avoid such tasks if so affected.

4.8 Undesirable effects

The following adverse events have been reported in association with cytarabine therapy:

Frequencies are defined using the following convention:

After Intrathecal use

Nervous system disorders

The risk of CNS toxicity increases if the cytarabine treatment - given as high dose i.v. or intrathecally - is combined with another CNS toxic treatment such as radiation therapy, high dose or intrathecal methotrexate or when given intrathecally in short intervals or in doses above 30 mg/mAfter intrathecal treatment necrotising leukencephalopathy, Myelopathy resulting in para- or quadriplegia has been reported.

Eye disorders Blindness.

Gastrointestinal disorders

Nausea, vomiting.

General disorders and administration site conditions Headache, fever and/or other symptoms of an arachnoiditis.

Adverse effects due to high dose cytarabine treatment, other than those seen with conventional dosese include:

Hematological toxicity:

Seen as profound pancytopenia which may last 15-25 days along with more severe bone marrow aplasia than that observed atconventional doses.

Nervous system disorders.

After treatment with high doses of cytarabine, symptoms of cerebral or cerebellar influence like personality changes, affected alertness, dysarthria, ataxia, tremor, nystagmus, headache, confusion, somnolence, dizziness, coma, convulsions, etc. appear in 8-37 % of treated patients. The incidence in elderly (>55 years) may be

even higher. Other predisposing factors are impaired liver and renal function, previous CNS treatment (e.g., radiotherapy) and alcohol abuse. CNS disturbances are in the most cases reversible.

The risk of CNS toxicity increases if the cytarabine treatment - given as high dose

i.v.- combined with another CNS toxic treatment such as radiation therapy or high dose.

Corneal and conjuctival toxicity:

Reversible lesion of corneal and haemorrhagic conjectivitis have been described. These phenomena can be prevented or decreased by installation od corticosteroid eye drops.

Gastrointestinal disorders:

Especially in treatment with high doses of cytarabine, more severe reactions may appear in addition to common symptoms. Intestinal perforation or necrosis with ileus and peritonitis have been reported.

Liver abscesses, hepatomegaly, Budd-Chiari-syndrome (hepatic venous thrombosis) and pancreatitis have been observed after high-dose therapy.

Respiratory, thoracic and mediastinal disorders:

Clinical signs as present in pulmonary oedema/ARDS may develop, particularly in high-dose therapy. The reaction is probably caused by an alveolar capillary injury. It is difficult to make an assessment of frequencies (stated as 10-26 % in different publications), since the patients usually have been in relapse where other factors may contribute to this reaction.

Others:

Following cytarabine therapy, cardiomyopathy and rhabdomyolysis have been reported. One case of anaphylaxis that resulted in cardiopulmonary arrest and required resuscitation has been reported. This occurred immediately after the intravenous administration of cytarabine.

The gastro-intestinal undesirable effects are reduced if cytarabine is administered as infusion. Local glucocorticoides are recommended as prophylaxis of haemorrhagic conjunctivitis.

Amenorrhoea and azoospermia (sec section 4.6)

4.9 Overdose

No specific antidote. Managed advised at overdosage include: Cessation of therapy, followed by management of ensuing bone marrow depression including whole blood or platelet transfusion and antibiotics as required. Twelve doses of 4.5 g/m2 by IV infusion over one hour every 12 hours induces irreversible and fatal central nervous system toxicity.

In case of intrathecal overdose: liquor should be replaced by isotonic saline solution immediately.

Cytarabine may be removed by haemodialysis.

5.1 Pharmacodynamic properties

Pharmacotherapeutic group: antineoplastic agents, pyrimidine analogue ATC code: L01BC01

Cytarabine, a pyrimidine nucleoside analogue, is an antineoplastic agent which inhibits the synthesis of deoxyribonucleic acid specifically in the S phase of the cell cycle. It also has antiviral and immunosuppressant properties. Detailed studies on the mechanism of cytotoxicity in vitro suggests that the primary action of cytarabine is inhibition of deoxycytidine synthesis via its active triposhphate metabolite arabinofuranosyl cytosine triphosphate ARA-CTP, although inhibition of cytidylic kinases and incorporation of the compound into nucleic acids may also play a role in its cytostatic and cytocidal actions.

High dose cytarabine regimes can overcome the resistance of leukemic cells no longer responding to conventional doses. Several mechanism appear to be involved to this resistance:

Increases in the quantity of substrate

Increase in the intracellular pool of ARA-CTP, since there is a positive coorelation between intracellular retention of ARA-CTP and percentage of cells in S-phase.

5.2 Pharmacokinetic properties

Cytarabine is deaminated to arabinofuranosyl uracil in the liver and kidneys. After intravenous administration to humans, only 5.8% of the administered doses is excreted unaltered in urine within 12-24 hours, 90% of the dose is excreted as the inactive deaminated product ,arabinofuranosyl uracil (ARA-U). Cytarabine appears to be metabolised rapidly, primarily by the liver and perhaps by the kidney. After single high intravenous doses, blood levels fall to unmeasurable levels within 15 minutes in most patients. Some patients have indemonstrable circulating drug as early as 5 minutes after injection. The half life of the drug is 10 minutes.

High dose cytarabine achieves plasma peak levels 200 fold higher than that observed with conventional dose regimen. The peak of inactive metabolite ARA-U , with high dose regimen, is observed after only 15 minutes. The renal clearance is slower with high dose cytarabine than with conventional dose cytarabine. The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels achieved , after high dose 1-3g/m2 cytarabine intravenous infusion, are around 100-300 nanograms/ml.

Peak plasma levels are achieved about 20-60 minutes after subcutaneous application. At comparable doses, they are significantly lower than the plasma levels achieved after intravenous administration.

Cytarabine should be administered intrathecally as prophylaxis and when treating CNS leukaemia, as cytarabine administered by the intravenous route crosses the blood-brain barrier to a limited extent only. Intrathecal administration of cytarabine results in very low plasma levels.

5.3 Preclinical safety data

There are no preclinical data of relevance to the prescriber which are additional to that already included in other sections of the Summary of Product Characteristics.
