Dosage Forms: Canada

Excipient information presented when available (limited, particularly for generics); consult specific product labeling.

Solution, Intravenous:

Pluvicto: 1000 MBq/mL (1 ea)

Administration: Adult

IV: Administer as a slow IV push or an IV infusion. May administer via an injection (using a disposable syringe fitted with a syringe shield with or without a syringe pump), as an infusion using the gravity method (with or without an infusion pump), or as an infusion using the vial (with a peristaltic infusion pump) when administering recommended initial dosage; for reduced dosages following an adverse reaction, administer only by the syringe method or the vial method (using gravity method for reduced doses may result in incorrect volume). Refer to product labeling for further details. Flush infusion line with at least 10 mL NS prior to lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan administration to assess catheter patency and to minimize risk of extravasation. Do not infuse other medications through the same IV line. Advise patients to increase oral fluid intake and to void frequently to reduce bladder radiation.

Per the study protocol, mild nausea and vomiting may occur with lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan administration; antiemetic treatment with an oral or IV serotonin antagonist and/or dexamethasone is recommended prior to infusion (Ref).

Syringe method (with or without a syringe pump):

Withdraw the appropriate lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan volume by using a disposable syringe fitted with a syringe shield and a disposable sterile needle. Administer by slow IV push over ~1 to 10 minutes (either with a syringe pump or manually without a syringe pump) via an IV catheter that is prefilled with NS and that is used solely for lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan administration. Follow administration with an IV flush ≥10 mL NS through the IV catheter.

Gravity method (with or without an infusion pump):

Insert a 2.5 cm, 20-gauge (short) needle into the lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan vial and connect via a catheter to a 500 mL sterile NS solution. Do not allow the short needle to touch the lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan solution in the vial and do not connect this short needle to the patient. Do not allow NS to flow into the lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan vial prior to infusion initiation and do not inject lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide directly into the NS solution.

Insert a separate 9 cm, 18-gauge (long) needle into the lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan vial; ensure that this long needle touches and is secured to the bottom of the lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan vial during the entire infusion. Connect the long needle to the patient by an IV catheter that is prefilled with sterile NS solution and that is used only for the lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan infusion into the patient.

Use a clamp or infusion pump to regulate the flow of the NS solution via the short needle into the lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan vial. The NS solution (entering the vial through the short needle) will carry the lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan from the vial to the patient through the IV catheter connected to the long needle within ~30 minutes.

During the infusion, ensure that the level of solution in the lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan vial remains constant. Once the level of radioactivity is stable for at least 5 minutes, disconnect the vial from the long needle line and clamp the saline line. Once the infusion is complete, flush the line with ≥10 mL NS.

Vial method (with a peristaltic infusion pump):

Insert a 2.5 cm, 20-gauge needle (short venting needle) into the lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan vial. Do not allow the short needle to touch the lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan solution in the vial and do not connect this short needle directly to the patient or infusion pump.

Insert a separate 9 cm, 18-gauge (long) needle into the lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan vial; ensure that this long needle touches and is secured to the bottom of the lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan vial during the entire infusion.

Connect the long needle and sterile NS solution to a 3-way stopcock valve via appropriate tubing. Connect the output of the 3-way stopcock valve to tubing installed on the input side of the peristaltic infusion pump according to manufacturer's instruction.

Prefill the line by opening the 3-way stopcock valve and pumping the lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan infusion through the tubing until it reaches the exit of the valve. Prefill the IV catheter that will be connected to the patient by opening the 3-way stopcock valve to the sterile NS solution and pumping the sterile NS solution until it exits the end of the catheter tubing.

Connect the prefilled IV catheter to the patient and set the 3-way stopcock valve so that the lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan infusion is in line with the infusion pump. Infuse an appropriate volume of lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan solution at ~25 mL/hour. When the correct lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan radioactivity has been delivered, stop the infusion pump and then change the position of the 3-way stopcock valve so that the infusion pump is in line with the sterile NS solution. Restart the infusion pump and infuse an IV flush of ≥10 mL NS solution through the IV catheter to the patient.

Reproductive Considerations

Patients with partners who could become pregnant should use effective contraception during treatment and for 14 weeks after the last dose of lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan. Following administration of lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan, refrain from sexual activity for 7 days.

Lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan is absorbed into the testes. Following exposure to the recommended cumulative dose, fertility may be temporarily or permanently impaired.

Pregnancy Considerations

Animal reproduction studies have not been conducted. Based on the mechanism of action, in utero exposure to lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan may cause fetal harm.

Pregnant persons should avoid close contact with treated patients. Patients undergoing treatment should limit close contact (<3 feet) to pregnant persons for 7 days after a dose of lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan. In addition, patients undergoing treatment should not sleep in the same bedroom as pregnant persons for 15 days after a dose of lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan.

Breastfeeding Considerations

It is not known if lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan is present in breast milk.

Monitoring Parameters

Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) expression (in tumors). CBC before and during treatment; serum creatinine and creatinine clearance before and during treatment; LFTs. Verify pregnancy status prior to initiating therapy in patients who could become pregnant. Monitor hydration status and for signs/symptoms of infection and myelosuppression.

Following lutetium Lu 77 vipivotide tetraxetan administration, patients should limit close contact (<3 feet) with household contacts for 2 days or with children and people who are pregnant for 7 days; advise patients to refrain from sexual activity for 7 days; patients should sleep in a separate bedroom from household contacts for 3 days, from children for 7 days, or from people who are pregnant for 15 days.

Mechanism of Action

Lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan is a radioligand therapeutic agent. The radionuclide lutetium-177 is linked to a moiety that binds to prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), a transmembrane glutamate carboxypeptidase that is highly expressed on prostate cancer cells (Sartor 2021). When lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan binds to PSMA-expressing cells, the beta-minus emission from lutetium-177 delivers radiation to the PSMA-expressing cells, resulting in DNA damage and cell death.

Pharmacokinetics (Adult Data Unless Noted)

Distribution: Vd: 123 L; lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan distributes to the GI tract, liver, lungs, kidneys, heart wall, bone marrow, and salivary glands within 2.5 hours after administration.

Protein binding: Plasma: 60% to 70%.

Half-life elimination: 41.6 hours.
