MOA

12.1 Mechanism of Action Binding of the PD-1 ligands, PD-L1 and PD-L2, to the PD-1 receptor found on T cells, inhibits T-cell proliferation and cytokine production. Upregulation of PD-1 ligands occurs in some tumors and signaling through this pathway can contribute to inhibition of active T-cell immune surveillance of tumors. Nivolumab is a human immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4) monoclonal antibody that binds to the PD-1 receptor and blocks its interaction with PD-L1 and PD-L2, releasing PD-1 pathway-mediated inhibition of the immune response, including the anti-tumor immune response. In syngeneic mouse tumor models, blocking PD-1 activity resulted in decreased tumor growth. Hyaluronan is a polysaccharide found in the extracellular matrix of the subcutaneous tissue. It is depolymerized by the naturally occurring enzyme hyaluronidase. Unlike the stable structural components of the interstitial matrix, hyaluronan has a half-life of approximately 0.5 days. Hyaluronidase increases permeability of the subcutaneous tissue by temporarily depolymerizing hyaluronan. In the doses administered, hyaluronidase in OPDIVO QVANTIG acts transiently and locally. The effects of hyaluronidase are reversible and permeability of the subcutaneous tissue is restored within 24 to 48 hours.

indication

1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE OPDIVO QVANTIG is a combination of nivolumab, a programmed death receptor-1 (PD-1)-blocking antibody, and hyaluronidase, an endoglycosidase, indicated for the treatment of: Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC) • adult patients with intermediate or poor risk advanced RCC, as a first-line treatment following combination treatment with intravenous nivolumab and ipilimumab. (1.1) • Limitations of Use: OPDIVO QVANTIG is not indicated in combination with ipilimumab for the treatment of renal cell carcinoma. • adult patients with advanced RCC, as a first-line treatment in combination with cabozantinib. (1.1) • adult patients with advanced RCC who have received prior anti-angiogenic therapy. ( 1.1 ) Melanoma • adult and pediatric (12 years and older who weigh 30 kg or greater) patients with unresectable or metastatic melanoma. (1.2) • adult and pediatric (12 years and older who weigh 30 kg or greater) patients with unresectable or metastatic melanoma following combination treatment with intravenous nivolumab and ipilimumab. (1.2) • Limitations of Use: OPDIVO QVANTIG is not indicated in combination with ipilimumab for the treatment of unresectable or metastatic melanoma. • for the adjuvant treatment of adult and pediatric (12 years and older who weigh 30 kg or greater) patients with completely resected Stage IIB, Stage IIC, Stage III, or Stage IV melanoma. (1.3) Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) • adult patients with resectable (tumors ≥4 cm or node positive) NSCLC in the neoadjuvant setting, in combination with platinum-doublet chemotherapy. (1.4) • adult patients with resectable (tumors ≥4 cm or node positive) NSCLC and no known EGFR mutations or ALK rearrangements, for neoadjuvant treatment, in combination with platinum-doublet chemotherapy, followed by OPDIVO QVANTIG monotherapy as adjuvant treatment after surgery. (1.5) • adult patients with metastatic NSCLC and progression on or after platinum-based chemotherapy. Patients with EGFR or ALK genomic tumor a
