Neulasta is a leukocyte growth factor indicated in adult and pediatric patients to Decrease the incidence of infection, as manifested by febrile neutropenia, in patients with non-myeloid malignancies receiving myelosuppressive anti-cancer drugs associated with a clinically significant incidence of febrile neutropenia. ( 1.1 ) Increase survival in patients acutely exposed to myelosuppressive doses of radiation (Hematopoietic Subsyndrome of Acute Radiation Syndrome). ( 1.2 ) Limitations of Use Neulasta is not indicated for the mobilization of peripheral blood progenitor cells for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. 1.1 Patients with Cancer Receiving Myelosuppressive Chemotherapy Neulasta is indicated in adult and pediatric patients to decrease the incidence of infection, as manifested by febrile neutropenia, in patients with non-myeloid malignancies receiving myelosuppressive anti-cancer drugs associated with a clinically significant incidence of febrile neutropenia [see Clinical Studies (14.1) ] . Limitations of Use Neulasta is not indicated for the mobilization of peripheral blood progenitor cells for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. 1.2 Patients with Hematopoietic Subsyndrome of Acute Radiation Syndrome Neulasta is indicated to increase survival in adults and pediatric patients acutely exposed to myelosuppressive doses of radiation [see Dosage and Administration (2.2) and Clinical Studies (14.2) ] .

Neulasta is contraindicated in patients with a history of a serious hypersensitivity reaction to pegfilgrastim or filgrastim. Reactions have included anaphylaxis [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ] . In patients with a history of serious hypersensitivity reaction to pegfilgrastim or filgrastim. ( 4 )

Fatal splenic rupture: Evaluate patients who report left upper abdominal or shoulder pain for an enlarged spleen or splenic rupture. ( 5.1 ) Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS): Evaluate patients who develop fever, lung infiltrates, or respiratory distress. Discontinue Neulasta in patients with ARDS. ( 5.2 ) Serious hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis: Permanently discontinue Neulasta in patients with serious hypersensitivity reactions. ( 5.3 ) The on-body injector for Neulasta uses acrylic adhesive. For patients who have reactions to acrylic adhesives, use of this product may result in a significant reaction. ( 5.4 ) Fatal sickle cell crises: Discontinue Neulasta if sickle cell crisis occurs. ( 5.5 ) Glomerulonephritis: Evaluate and consider dose-reduction or interruption of Neulasta if causality is likely. ( 5.6 ) Thrombocytopenia: Monitor platelet counts. ( 5.8 ) Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) and Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML): Monitor patients with breast and lung cancer using Neulasta in conjunction with chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy for signs and symptoms of MDS/AML. ( 5.11 ) Potential device failures: Instruct patients to notify their healthcare provider if they suspect the on-body injector may not have performed as intended. ( 5.12 ) Large and Medium Vessel Arteritis: Discontinue Neulasta if arteritis is suspected. ( 5.13 ) 5.1 Splenic Rupture Splenic rupture, including fatal cases, can occur following the administration of Neulasta. Evaluate …

8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Although available data with Neulasta use in pregnant women are insufficient to establish whether there is a drug associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes, there are available data from published studies in pregnant women exposed to filgrastim products. These studies have not established an association of filgrastim product use during pregnancy with major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. In animal studies, no evidence of reproductive/developmental toxicity occurred in the offspring of pregnant rats that received cumulative doses of pegfilgrastim approximately 10 times the …
