Mirvetuximab soravtansine can cause severe ocular toxicities, including visual impairment, keratopathy, dry eye, photophobia, eye pain, and uveitis. Conduct an ophthalmic exam, including visual acuity and slit lamp exam, prior to initiation of mirvetuximab soravtansine, every other cycle for the first 8 cycles, and as clinically indicated. Administer prophylactic artificial tears and ophthalmic topical steroids. Withhold mirvetuximab soravtansine for ocular toxicities until improvement and resume at the same or reduced dose. Discontinue mirvetuximab soravtansine for grade 4 ocular toxicities.
Dosage guidance:
Safety: Premedication, as well as lubricating and ophthalmic topical steroid eye drops, during mirvetuximab soravtansine treatment are recommended.
Clinical considerations: Mirvetuximab soravtansine is associated with a moderate emetic potential; antiemetics are recommended to prevent nausea and vomiting.
Ovarian cancer, platinum-resistant, folate receptor-alpha positive (epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer): IV: 6 mg/kg (based on adjusted ideal body weight) once every 3 weeks; continue until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity (Ref).
Note: Adjusted ideal body weight (AIBW) calculated with the following formula:
AIBW = Ideal body weight (kg) + 0.4 × (actual weight [kg] − ideal body weight [kg])
Female ideal body weight (kg) = 0.9 × height (cm) − 92

Concerns related to adverse effects:
• Ocular adverse reactions: Mirvetuximab soravtansine can cause severe ocular adverse reactions. Ocular adverse reactions occurred in over half of patients. Grade 3 ocular adverse reactions occurred, including visual impairment, keratopathy/keratitis (corneal disorders), dry eye, photophobia, and eye pain; one case of grade 4 keratopathy was reported. The most common ocular adverse reactions were visual impairment, keratopathy, dry eye, cataract, photophobia, and eye pain. The median time to onset of first ocular adverse reaction was 1.2 months (range: up to ~13 months). Of patients experiencing ocular events, almost half had complete resolution, while over one-third had partial improvement (decrease in severity by one or more grades from the worst grade) at last follow-up. Ocular adverse reactions led to permanent discontinuation in a small percentage of patients. Premedication as well as lubricating and ophthalmic topical steroid eye drops during mirvetuximab soravtansine treatment are recommended. Advise patients to avoid use of contact lenses during mirvetuximab soravtansine treatment unless directed by a health care provider.
• Peripheral neuropathy: Peripheral neuropathy occurred in over one-third of patients; grade 3 peripheral neuropathy was reported (rare). Neuropathy included peripheral neuropathy, peripheral sensory neuropathy, paraesthesia, neurotoxicity, hypoaesthesia, peripheral motor neuropathy, neuralgia, polyneuropathy, and oral hypoesthesia. The median time to onset of peripheral neuropathy was 1.3 months (range: up to ~29 months). Of patients experiencing peripheral neuropathy, over one-fourth had complete resolution, and some had partial improvement (decrease in severity by one or more grades from the worst grade) at last follow-up. Peripheral neuropathy led to mirvetuximab soravtansine discontinuation in a small percentage of patients.
• Pulmonary toxicity: Severe, life-threatening, or fatal interstitial lung disease, including pneumonitis, may occur with mirvetuximab soravtansine. Pneumonitis occurred in 10% of patients, including rare grade 3 and 4 events. One fatality due to respiratory failure in the setting of pneumonitis and lung metastases was reported. In rare cases, pneumonitis resulted in dose reduction, treatment interruptions, or permanent discontinuation. Signs/symptoms of pneumonitis may include hypoxia, cough, dyspnea, or interstitial infiltrates on radiologic exams.

Animal reproduction studies have not been conducted.
Based on the mechanism of action, in utero exposure to mirvetuximab soravtansine may cause fetal harm. Mirvetuximab soravtansine is an antibody-drug conjugate that includes a monoclonal antibody component (IgG) and a small molecule anti-tubulin agent DM4. DM4 is genotoxic and acts on actively dividing cells. Human IgG crosses the placenta. Fetal exposure is dependent upon the IgG subclass, maternal serum concentrations, placental integrity, newborn birth weight, and gestational age. The lowest exposure would be expected during the period of organogenesis and the highest during the third trimester (Clements 2020; Palmeira 2012; Pentsuk 2009).
It is not known if mirvetuximab soravtansine is present in breast milk.
Mirvetuximab soravtansine is an antibody-drug conjugate that includes a monoclonal antibody component (IgG). Human IgG is present in breast milk; concentrations are dependent upon IgG subclass and postpartum age (Anderson 2021).
Due to the potential for serious adverse reactions in the breastfed infant, the manufacturer recommends that breastfeeding be discontinued during therapy and for 1 month after the last mirvetuximab soravtansine dose.
Folate receptor-alpha tumor expression. CBC with differential and serum chemistries (as clinically indicated). Verify pregnancy status prior to treatment initiation (in patients who could become pregnant). Ophthalmic exam including visual acuity and slit lamp exam prior to treatment initiation, every other cycle for the first 8 cycles, and as clinically indicated. Monitor for ocular toxicity (promptly refer to an eye care professional for new or worsening ocular signs and symptoms). Monitor for sings/symptoms of pneumonitis (eg, hypoxia, cough, dyspnea, or interstitial infiltrates on radiologic exams); assess appropriately to rule out other causes of pulmonary symptoms (eg, infectious, neoplastic, and/or other causes). Monitor for signs/symptoms of neuropathy (eg, paresthesia, tingling or a burning sensation, neuropathic pain, muscle weakness, or dysesthesia). Monitor for signs/symptoms of infusion reactions.
The American Society of Clinical Oncology hepatitis B virus (HBV) screening and management provisional clinical opinion (ASCO [Hwang 2020]) recommends HBV screening with hepatitis B surface antigen, hepatitis B core antibody, total Ig or IgG, and antibody to hepatitis B surface antigen prior to beginning (or at the beginning of) systemic anticancer therapy; do not delay treatment for screening/results. Detection of chronic or past HBV infection requires a risk assessment to determine antiviral prophylaxis requirements, monitoring, and follow-up.
Mirvetuximab soravtansine is an antibody-drug conjugate which consists of 3 components, a folate receptor alpha (FRα)-directed monoclonal antibody (IgG1 subtype), a small molecule anti-tubulin agent DM4 (a maytansine derivative), and a linker that covalently attaches DM4 to the mirvetuximab antibody. The antibody portion is a chimeric IgG1 directed against folate receptor alpha (FRα); DM4 is a microtubule inhibitor attached to the antibody via a cleavable linker. Upon binding to FRα, mirvetuximab soravtansine is internalized and then intracellularly releases DM4 via proteolytic cleavage. DM4 disrupts the microtubule network within the cell, resulting in cell cycle arrest and apoptosis.
Distribution: Vdss: 2.63 L.
Protein binding: DM4 and S-methyl DM4: >99%; to plasma proteins.
Metabolism: The monoclonal antibody portion of mirvetuximab soravtansine is expected to be catabolized into small peptides. Unconjugated DM4 and S-methyl DM4 undergo hepatic metabolism via CYP3A4; DM4 and S-methyl DM4 are the main circulating metabolites, accounting for ~0.4% and ~1.4%, of mirvetuximab soravtansine AUC’s, respectively.
Half-life elimination: Mirvetuximab soravtansine: 4.8 days; unconjugated DM4 (metabolite): 2.8 days; S-methyl DM4 (metabolite): 5 days.
Time to peak: Mirvetuximab soravtansine: Near the end of infusion; unconjugated DM4 (metabolite): second day after administration; S-methyl DM4 (metabolite): ~3 days after administration.
Excretion: S-methyl DM4 and DM4-sulfo-SPDB-lysine are the main metabolites detected in urine within 24 hours of infusion.
Clearance: Mirvetuximab soravtansine: 18.9 mL/hour; unconjugated DM4 (metabolite): 13.8 L/hour; S-methyl DM4 (metabolite): 4.3 L/hour.
