2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION • Administer IFEX with extensive hydration consisting of at least 2 liters of oral or intravenous fluid per day to reduce the incidence or severity of bladder toxicity. ( 2.1 , 5.3 ) • Administer mesna with IFEX to reduce the incidence or severity of hemorrhagic cystitis. ( 2.1 , 5.3 ) • Administer IFEX as a slow intravenous infusion (at least 30 minutes) at a dose of 1.2 grams per m 2 per day for 5 consecutive days. Repeat every 3 weeks or after recovery from hematologic toxicity. ( 2.2 ) • Individualize the dose and dosing schedule of IFEX based on patient risk factors and adverse reactions. ( 2.2 ) • See Full Prescribing Information for instructions on preparation and administration. ( 2.3 ) 2.1 Important Administration Instructions Administer IFEX with extensive hydration consisting of at least 2 liters of oral or intravenous fluid per day to reduce the incidence or severity of bladder toxicity. Administer IFEX with mesna to reduce the incidence or severity of hemorrhagic cystitis [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ] . 2.2 Recommended Dosage The recommended dosage of IFEX is 1.2 grams per m 2 per day administered as a slow intravenous infusion (lasting at least 30 minutes) for 5 consecutive days. Treatment is repeated every 3 weeks or after recovery from hematologic toxicity. Individualize the dose and dosing schedule of IFEX based on patient risk factors and adverse reactions. 2.3 Preparation and Administration IFEX is a hazardous drug. Follow applicable special handling and disposal procedures. 1 Skin reactions associated with accidental exposure to IFEX may occur. To minimize the risk of dermal exposure, always wear impervious gloves when handling vials and solutions containing IFEX. If IFEX solution contacts the skin or mucosa, immediately wash the skin thoroughly with soap and water or rinse the mucosa with copious amounts of water. Prepare IFEX for intravenous use by adding Sterile Water for Injection, USP or Bacteriostatic Water for Injection, USP (benzyl alcohol or parabens preserved) to the vial and shaking to dissolve. Before administration, the substance must be completely dissolved. Use the quantity of diluents shown in Table 1 below to reconstitute the product: Table 1: IFEX Quantities for Dilution and Final Concentrations Dosage Strength Quantity of Diluent Final Concentration 1 gram 20 mL 50 mg per mL 3 grams 60 mL 50 mg per mL Solutions of ifosfamide may be diluted further to achieve concentrations of 0.6 to 20 mg/mL in the following fluids: • 5% Dextrose Injection, USP • 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP • Lactated Ringer’s Injections, USP • Sterile Water for Injection, USP Because essentially identical stability results were obtained for Sterile Water admixtures as for the other admixtures (5% Dextrose Injection, 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, and Lactated Ringer’s Injection), the use of large volume parenteral glass bottles, VIAFLEX bags or PAB bags that contain intermediate concentrations or mixtures of excipients (e.g., 2.5% Dextrose Injection, 0.45% Sodium Chloride Injection, or 5% Dextrose and 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection) is also acceptable. Refrigerate constituted or constituted and further diluted solutions of IFEX and use within 24 hours. Benzyl-alcohol-containing solutions can reduce the stability of ifosfamide. Parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration, whenever solution and container permit.

5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS • Myelosuppression: Monitor blood counts prior to treatment, during treatment, and as clinically indicated. ( 5.1 ) • Encephalopathy: Monitor for signs and symptoms of CNS toxicity during and after IFEX treatment. Dose interruption or permanent discontinuation may be required based on individual safety and tolerability. ( 5.2 ) • Nephrotoxicity and Urotoxicity: Monitor signs and symptoms. Monitor serum and urine chemistries. ( 2.1 , 5.3 ) • Cardiotoxicity: Arrhythmias, other ECG changes, and cardiomyopathy can occur and result in death. Cardiotoxicity is dose dependent and the risk is increased in patients with preexisting cardiac, treatment with other cardiotoxic agents, radiation, and renal impairment. ( 5.4 ) • Pulmonary toxicity: Interstitial pneumonitis, pulmonary fibrosis, and pulmonary toxicity with fatal outcomes can occur. Monitor for signs and symptoms of pulmonary toxicity and treat as clinically indicated. ( 5.5 ) • Secondary malignancies can occur. ( 5.6 ) • Veno-occlusive Liver Disease can occur. ( 5.7 ) • Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: Can cause fetal harm. Advise of potential risk to a fetus and use of effective contraception. ( 5.8 , 8.1 , 8.3 ) • Infertility: Can impair male and female reproductive function. ( 5.9 ) • Anaphylactic/anaphylactoid reactions have been reported. ( 5.10 ) 5.1 Myelosuppression IFEX can cause myelosuppression that results in severe or fatal infections including sepsis or septic shock. Ifosfamide‑induced myelosuppression includes leukopenia, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia (with bleeding events), and anemia. The nadir of the leukocyte count usually occurs during the second week after administration of IFEX. The risk of myelosuppression is dose‑dependent and increased in patients with reduced renal function, bone marrow metastases, prior radiation, and concomitant or prior therapy with other cytotoxic agents. Monitor complete blood counts, including leukocytes, neutrophils, platelets, and hemoglobin prior to each administration of IFEX, at appropriate intervals during treatment, and as clinically indicated. Myelosuppression may require dosage delays. Avoid administration of IFEX to patients with a WBC count below 2000/µL, a platelet count below 50,000/µL, or when signs or symptoms of active infection or severe immunosuppression are present. 5.2 Encephalopathy IFEX can cause encephalopathy which may be fatal. Signs and symptoms may include confusion, somnolence, coma, hallucination, blurred vision, psychotic behavior, extrapyramidal symptoms, urinary incontinence, and seizures. Risk factors include high ifosfamide dosage, hypoalbuminemia, impaired renal function, poor performance status, bulky abdominal-pelvic disease, nephrotoxic treatments including cisplatin, CNS active drugs, or alcohol use. Signs and symptoms may occur or recur within hours to days after administration of IFEX. Continue supportive care until complete resolution of CNS signs and symptoms. Monitor for signs and symptoms of encephalopathy during and after IFEX treatment. Dose interruption or permanent discontinuation may be required based on individual safety and tolerability. Consider methylene blue for treatment of encephalopathy. 5.3 Nephrotoxicity and Urotoxicity IFEX can cause severe or fatal nephrotoxicity and urotoxicity including glomerular or tubular dysfunction, tubular necrosis, renal parenchymal necrosis, acute renal failure, chronic renal failure, and hemorrhagic cystitis (requiring blood transfusion). Tubular damage may occur up to years after cessation of IFEX treatment. The risk of nephrotoxicity is increased in patients with renal impairment or reduced nephron reserve. Hemorrhagic cystitis is dose‑dependent and the risk is increased with past or concomitant radiation of the bladder or busulfan treatment. Evaluate glomerular and tubular kidney function before treatment with IFEX, during IFEX treatment, and as clinically indicated. Monitor serum and urine chemistries (including phosphor…

4 CONTRAINDICATIONS IFEX is contraindicated in patients with: • Known hypersensitivity to administration of ifosfamide. • Urinary outflow obstruction. • Known hypersensitivity to administration of ifosfamide. ( 4 ) • Urinary outflow obstruction. ( 4 )

7 DRUG INTERACTIONS • CYP3A4 Inducers: Monitor for increased toxicity when used in combination with CYP3A4 inducers. ( 7.1 ) • CYP3A4 Inhibitors: Use in combination with CYP3A4 inhibitors could decrease the effectiveness of ifosfamide. ( 7.2 ) 7.1 Inducers of CYP3A4 CYP3A4 inducers may increase the metabolism of ifosfamide to its active alkylating metabolites. CYP3A4 inducers may increase the formation of the neurotoxic/nephrotoxic ifosfamide metabolite, chloroacetaldehyde. Closely monitor patients taking ifosfamide with CYP3A4 inducers for toxicities and consider dose adjustment. 7.2 Inhibitors of CYP3A4 CYP3A4 inhibitors may decrease the metabolism of ifosfamide to its active alkylating metabolites, perhaps decreasing the effectiveness of ifosfamide treatment.

8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Based on mechanism of action [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.1) ] , and human and animal data (see Data) , IFEX can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. Fetal growth retardation and neonatal anemia have been reported following exposure to ifosfamide‑containing chemotherapy regimens during pregnancy. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2 to 4% and 15 to 20%, respectively. Data Animal Data Animal studies indicate that ifosfamide is capable of causing gene mutations and chromosomal damage in vivo . In pregnant mice, resorptions increased and anomalies were present at day 19 after a 30 mg/m 2 dose of ifosfamide was administered on day 11 of gestation. Embryo-lethal effects were observed in rats following the administration of 54 mg/m 2 doses of ifosfamide from the 6th through the 15th day of gestation and embryotoxic effects were apparent after dams received 18 mg/m 2 doses over the same dosing period. Ifosfamide is embryotoxic to rabbits receiving 88 mg/m 2 /day doses from the 6th through the 18th day after mating. The number of anomalies was also significantly increased over the control group.
