1. What Lenalidomida Teva is and what it is used for

What is Lenalidomida Teva

Lenalidomida Teva contains the active substance “lenalidomide”. This medicine belongs to a group of
medicines that affect how the immune system works.

What Lenalidomida Teva is used for

Lenalidomida Teva is used in adults for:

  • Multiple myeloma
  • Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS)
  • Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL)
  • Follicular lymphoma (FL)

Multiple myeloma

Multiple myeloma is a type of cancer that affects a specific type of white blood cells called plasma cells. These cells accumulate in the bone marrow and multiply uncontrollably. This can damage bones and kidneys.

Multiple myeloma is generally not curable. However, signs and symptoms can be greatly reduced or may disappear for a period of time. This is called “remission”.

Newly diagnosed multiple myeloma: in patients who have undergone a bone marrow transplant
Lenalidomida Teva is used as maintenance treatment after adequate recovery from a bone marrow transplant.

2. What you need to know before starting Lenalidomida Teva

You must read the package leaflet of all medications you are going to take in combination with Lenalidomida Teva before starting treatment with Lenalidomida Teva.

Do not take Lenalidomida Teva

  • if you are pregnant, think you might be pregnant, or intend to become pregnant, as Lenalidomida Teva is expected to be harmful to the fetus (see section 2, “Pregnancy, breastfeeding and contraception: information for women and men”).
  • if you are capable of becoming pregnant, unless you follow all necessary measures to prevent pregnancy (see section 2, “Pregnancy, breastfeeding and contraception: information for women and men”). If you are capable of becoming pregnant, your doctor will document with each prescription that all necessary measures have been taken and will provide you with this confirmation.
  • if you are allergic to lenalidomide or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6). If you think you may be allergic, consult your doctor.

If any of these conditions apply to you, do not take Lenalidomida Teva. If in doubt, consult your doctor.

Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse before starting Lenalidomida Teva if

  • you have ever had blood clots; during treatment, you have an increased risk of developing blood clots in veins and arteries.
  • you have any signs of infection, such as cough or fever.
  • you have or have previously had a viral infection, especially hepatitis B, varicella zoster, or HIV. If in doubt, consult your doctor. Treatment with Lenalidomida Teva may cause the virus to become active again in patients who carry the virus. This leads to the recurrence of infection. Your doctor should check whether you have ever had hepatitis B infection.
  • you have kidney problems; your doctor may adjust your dose of Lenalidomida Teva.
  • you have had a heart attack, have ever had a blood clot, or if you smoke, have high blood pressure, or high cholesterol levels.
  • you have had an allergic reaction while using thalidomide (another medicine used to treat multiple myeloma), such as rash, itching, swelling, dizziness, or breathing problems.
  • you have previously experienced a combination of any of the following symptoms: widespread rash, skin redness, high body temperature, flu-like symptoms, increased liver enzymes, blood abnormalities (eosinophilia), swollen lymph nodes (signs of a serious skin reaction called drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms, also known as DRESS or drug hypersensitivity syndrome) (see also section 4 “Possible side effects”).

If any of the above conditions apply to you, inform your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse before starting treatment.

At any time during or after treatment, inform your doctor or nurse immediately if:

  • you experience blurred vision, loss of vision, double vision, difficulty speaking, weakness in one arm or leg, a change in the way you walk, or balance problems, persistent numbness, decreased sensation, or loss of sensation, memory loss, or confusion. These may be symptoms of a serious and potentially life-threatening brain disease known as progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). If you have any of these symptoms before starting treatment with Lenalidomida Teva, inform your doctor if you notice any changes in these symptoms.
  • you experience shortness of breath, fatigue, dizziness, chest pain, faster heartbeat, or swelling in your legs or ankles. These may be symptoms of a serious condition known as pulmonary hypertension (see section 4).

Blood tests and monitoring

Before starting treatment with Lenalidomida Teva and during treatment, you will have regular blood tests. This is because Lenalidomida Teva can cause a decrease in blood cells that help fight infections (white blood cells) and those involved in blood clotting (platelets).

Your doctor will request blood tests:

  • before treatment
  • every week during the first 8 weeks of treatment
  • thereafter, at least once a month.

You may be evaluated for signs of cardiopulmonary problems before and during treatment with lenalidomide.

For patients with MDS taking Lenalidomida Teva

If you have MDS, you may be more likely to develop a more advanced disease called acute myeloid leukemia (AML). In addition, it is unknown how Lenalidomida Teva affects your risk of developing AML. Therefore, your doctor may perform blood tests to detect signs that could better predict your risk of developing AML during treatment with Lenalidomida Teva.

For patients with MM taking Lenalidomida Teva

Your doctor will request blood tests:

  • before treatment
  • every week during the first 8 weeks (2 cycles) of treatment
  • thereafter, every 2 weeks during cycles 3 and 4 (see section 3 “Treatment cycle” for more information)
  • after this, at the beginning of each cycle and
  • at least once a month.

For patients with FL taking Lenalidomida Teva

Your doctor will request blood tests:

  • before treatment
  • every week during the first 3 weeks (1 cycle) of treatment
  • thereafter, every 2 weeks during cycles 2 to 4 (see section 3 “Treatment cycle” for more information)
  • after this, at the beginning of each cycle and
  • at least once a month.

Your doctor may check whether you have a high total tumor burden in the body, including in the bone marrow. This could lead to a condition in which tumors break down and release unusual levels of chemicals into the blood, which in turn may cause kidney failure (this condition is called “tumor lysis syndrome”).

Your doctor may examine you to check for changes in your skin, such as red spots or rashes.

Your doctor may adjust the dose of Lenalidomida Teva or interrupt your treatment, depending on the results of your blood tests and your general condition. If you are a newly diagnosed patient, your doctor may also evaluate your treatment based on your age and other pre-existing conditions.

Blood donation

You must not donate blood during treatment or for at least 7 days after treatment ends.

Children and adolescents

Lenalidomida Teva is not recommended for use in children and adolescents under 18 years of age.

Elderly patients and patients with kidney problems

If you are 75 years of age or older or have moderate to severe kidney problems, your doctor will carefully evaluate you before starting treatment.

Other medicines and Lenalidomida Teva

Inform your doctor or nurse if you are taking or have recently taken any other medicines. This is because Lenalidomida Teva may affect how other medicines work. In addition, some medicines may affect how Lenalidomida Teva works.

Specifically, inform your doctor or nurse if you are taking any of the following medicines:

  • certain medicines used to prevent pregnancy, such as oral contraceptives, as they may stop working
  • certain medicines used for heart problems, such as digoxin
  • certain medicines used to thin the blood, such as warfarin

4. Possible adverse effects

Like all medicines, Lenalidomide Teva may cause adverse effects, although not everyone will experience them.

If you experience any of the following serious adverse effects, stop treatment with Lenalidomide Teva and seek medical attention immediately, as you may require urgent medical treatment:

  • Hives, rashes, swelling of the eyes, mouth or face, difficulty breathing or itching, which may be symptoms of severe allergic reactions known as angioedema and anaphylactic reaction
  • Severe allergic reaction that may start as a rash in one area but spreads, leading to extensive skin loss throughout the body (Stevens-Johnson syndrome and/or toxic epidermal necrolysis)
  • Widespread rash, high body temperature, elevated liver enzymes, blood abnormalities (eosinophilia), swollen lymph nodes and effects on other organs (drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms, also known as DRESS syndrome or drug hypersensitivity syndrome). See also section 2.
