2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION For subcutaneous or intravenous use only. Each route of administration has a different final concentration. Exercise caution when calculating the volume to be administered. ( 2.1 , 2.10 ) The recommended starting dose of BORUZU is 1.3 mg/m 2 administered either as a 3 to 5 second bolus intravenous injection or subcutaneous injection. ( 2.2 , 2.4 , 2.6 ) Retreatment for Multiple Myeloma: May retreat starting at the last tolerated dose. ( 2.6 ) Hepatic Impairment: Use a lower starting dose for patients with moderate or severe hepatic impairment. ( 2.8 ) Dose must be individualized to prevent overdose. ( 2.10 ) See Full Prescribing Information for preparation and administration instructions. ( 2.10 ) 2.1 Important Dosing Guidelines BORUZU is for intravenous or subcutaneous use only. Do not administer BORUZU by any other route. Because each route of administration has a different final concentration, use caution when calculating the volume to be administered. The recommended starting dose of BORUZU is 1.3 mg/m 2 . BORUZU is administered intravenously at a concentration of 1 mg/mL, or subcutaneously at a concentration of 2.5 mg/mL [see Dosage and Administration (2.10) ]. BORUZU retreatment may be considered for patients with multiple myeloma who had previously responded to treatment with BORUZU and who have relapsed at least six months after completing prior BORUZU treatment. Treatment may be started at the last tolerated dose [see Dosage and Administration (2.6) ] . When administered intravenously, administer BORUZU as a 3 to 5 second bolus intravenous injection. 2.2 Dosage in Previously Untreated Multiple Myeloma BORUZU is administered in combination with oral melphalan and oral prednisone for 9, six week treatment cycles as shown in Table 1. In Cycles 1 to 4, BORUZU is administered twice weekly (Days 1, 4, 8, 11, 22, 25, 29 and 32). In Cycles 5 to 9, BORUZU is administered once weekly (Days 1, 8, 22 and 29). At least 72 hours should elapse between consecutive doses of BORUZU.

Then, BORUZU may be reinitiated with one dose level reduction (from 1.3 mg/m 2 to 1 mg/m 2 , or from 1 mg/m 2 t…

5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Peripheral Neuropathy: Manage with dose modification or discontinuation. ( 2.7 ) Patients with pre-existing severe neuropathy should be treated with BORUZU only after careful risk-benefit assessment. ( 2.7 , 5.1 ) Hypotension: Use caution when treating patients taking antihypertensives, with a history of syncope, or with dehydration. ( 5.2 ) Cardiac Toxicity: Worsening of and development of cardiac failure has occurred. Closely monitor patients with existing heart disease or risk factors for heart disease. ( 5.3 ) Pulmonary Toxicity: Acute respiratory syndromes have occurred. Monitor closely for new or worsening symptoms and consider interrupting BORUZU therapy. ( 5.4 ) Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome: Consider MRI imaging for onset of visual or neurological symptoms; discontinue BORUZU if suspected. ( 5.5 ) Gastrointestinal Toxicity: Nausea, diarrhea, constipation, and vomiting may require use of antiemetic and antidiarrheal medications or fluid replacement. ( 5.6 ) Thrombocytopenia and Neutropenia: Monitor complete blood counts regularly throughout treatment. ( 5.7 ) Tumor Lysis Syndrome: Closely monitor patients with high tumor burden. ( 5.8 ) Hepatic Toxicity: Monitor hepatic enzymes during treatment. Interrupt BORUZU therapy to assess reversibility. ( 5.9 ) Thrombotic Microangiopathy: Monitor for signs and symptoms. Discontinue BORUZU if suspected. ( 5.10 ) Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: BORUZU can cause fetal harm. Advise females of reproductive potential and males with female partners of reproductive potential of the potential risk to a fetus and to use effective contraception. ( 5.11 ) 5.1 Peripheral Neuropathy Bortezomib treatment causes a peripheral neuropathy that is predominantly sensory; however, cases of severe sensory and motor peripheral neuropathy have been reported. Patients with pre-existing symptoms (numbness, pain or a burning feeling in the feet or hands) and/or signs of peripheral neuropathy may experience worsening peripheral neuropathy (including ≥ Grade 3) during treatment with bortezomib. Patients should be monitored for symptoms of neuropathy, such as a burning sensation, hyperesthesia, hypoesthesia, paresthesia, discomfort, neuropathic pain or weakness. In the Phase 3 relapsed multiple myeloma trial comparing bortezomib subcutaneous vs intravenous, the incidence of Grade ≥ 2 peripheral neuropathy was 24% for subcutaneous and 39% for intravenous. Grade ≥ 3 peripheral neuropathy occurred in 6% of patients in the subcutaneous treatment group, compared with 15% in the intravenous treatment group [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] . Starting bortezomib subcutaneously may be considered for patients with pre-existing or at high risk of peripheral neuropathy. Patients experiencing new or worsening peripheral neuropathy during bortezomib therapy may require a decrease in the dose and/or a less dose-intense schedule [see Dosage and Administration (2.7) ] . In the bortezomib vs dexamethasone Phase 3 relapsed multiple myeloma study, improvement in or resolution of peripheral neuropathy was reported in 48% of patients with ≥ Grade 2 peripheral neuropathy following dose adjustment or interruption. Improvement in or resolution of peripheral neuropathy was reported in 73% of patients who discontinued due to Grade 2 neuropathy or who had ≥ Grade 3 peripheral neuropathy in the Phase 2 multiple myeloma studies. The long-term outcome of peripheral neuropathy has not been studied in mantle cell lymphoma. 5.2 Hypotension The incidence of hypotension (postural, orthostatic, and hypotension NOS) was 8% [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] . These events are observed throughout therapy. Patients with a history of syncope, patients receiving medications known to be associated with hypotension, and patients who are dehydrated may be at increased risk of hypotension. Management of orthostatic/postural hypotension may include adjustment of antihypertensive medications, hydration, and administration of min…

4 CONTRAINDICATIONS BORUZU is contraindicated in patients with hypersensitivity (not including local reactions) to bortezomib, boron, or mannitol. Reactions have included anaphylactic reactions [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] . BORUZU is contraindicated for intrathecal administration. Fatal events have occurred with intrathecal administration of BORUZU. Patients with hypersensitivity (not including local reactions) to bortezomib, boron, or mannitol, including anaphylactic reactions. ( 4 ) Contraindicated for intrathecal administration. ( 4 )

7 DRUG INTERACTIONS Strong CYP3A4 Inhibitors: Closely monitor patients with concomitant use. ( 7.1 ) Strong CYP3A4 Inducers: Avoid concomitant use. ( 7.3 ) 7.1 Effects of Other Drugs on BORUZU Strong CYP3A4 Inducers Coadministration with a strong CYP3A4 inducer decreases the exposure of bortezomib [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] which may decrease bortezomib efficacy. Avoid coadministration with strong CYP3A4 inducers. Strong CYP3A4 Inhibitors Coadministration with a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor increases the exposure of bortezomib [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] which may increase the risk of bortezomib toxicities. Monitor patients for signs of bortezomib toxicity and consider a bortezomib dose reduction if bortezomib must be given in combination with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors. 7.2 Drugs Without Clinically Significant Interactions with Bortezomib No clinically significant drug interactions have been observed when bortezomib was coadministered with dexamethasone, omeprazole, or melphalan in combination with prednisone [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] .

8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Based on its mechanism of action [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.1) ] and findings in animals, bortezomib can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. There are no studies with the use of bortezomib in pregnant women to inform drug-associated risks. Bortezomib caused embryo-fetal lethality in rabbits at doses lower than the clinical dose ( see Data ). Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to the fetus. Adverse outcomes in pregnancy occur regardless of the health of the mother or the use of medications. The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. 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 Bortezomib was not teratogenic in nonclinical developmental toxicity studies in rats and rabbits at the highest dose tested (0.075 mg/kg; 0.5 mg/m 2 in the rat and 0.05 mg/kg; 0.6 mg/m 2 in the rabbit) when administered during organogenesis. These dosages are approximately 0.5 times the clinical dose of 1.3 mg/m 2 based on body surface area. Bortezomib caused embryo-fetal lethality in rabbits at doses lower than the clinical dose (approximately 0.5 times the clinical dose of 1.3 mg/m 2 based on body surface area). Pregnant rabbits given bortezomib during organogenesis at a dose of 0.05 mg/kg (0.6 mg/m 2 ) experienced significant postimplantation loss and decreased number of live fetuses. Live fetuses from these litters also showed significant decreases in fetal weight.
