1. What is Pomalidomide Krka and what is it used for

What is Pomalidomide Krka

Pomalidomide Krka contains the active substance "pomalidomide". This medicine is related to thalidomide and belongs to a group of medicines that affect the immune system (the body's natural defences).

What Pomalidomide Krka is used for

Pomalidomide Krka is used to treat adults with a type of cancer called "multiple myeloma".

Pomalidomide Krka is used with:

  • two other medicines called "bortezomib" (a type of chemotherapy medicine) and "dexamethasone" (an anti-inflammatory medicine) in people who have received at least one other treatment, including lenalidomide.

Or

  • another medicine called "dexamethasone" in people whose myeloma has worsened despite having received at least two other types of treatment, including the medicines lenalidomide and bortezomib.

What is multiple myeloma

Multiple myeloma is a type of cancer that affects a specific type of white blood cells (called "plasma cells"). These cells grow uncontrollably and accumulate in the bone marrow, damaging bones and kidneys.

Multiple myeloma is generally not curable. However, treatment can reduce or eliminate the signs and symptoms of the disease for a period of time. When this occurs, it is referred to as a "response".

How Pomalidomide Krka works

Pomalidomide Krka works in several ways:

  • It stops the growth of myeloma cells;
  • It stimulates the immune system to attack cancer cells;
  • It stops the formation of blood vessels that feed cancer cells.

Benefit of using Pomalidomide Krka with bortezomib and dexamethasone

When Pomalidomide Krka is used with bortezomib and dexamethasone in people who have received at least one other treatment, it can delay the progression of multiple myeloma:

  • Typically, the combination of pomalidomide with bortezomib and dexamethasone delayed the recurrence of multiple myeloma for up to 11 months, compared with 7 months in patients receiving bortezomib and dexamethasone alone.

Benefit of using Pomalidomide Krka with dexamethasone

When Pomalidomide Krka is used with dexamethasone in people who have received at least two other treatments, it can delay the progression of multiple myeloma:

  • Typically, the combination of pomalidomide and dexamethasone delayed the recurrence of multiple myeloma for up to 4 months, compared with 2 months in patients receiving dexamethasone alone.

2. What you need to know before starting Pomalidomide Krka

Do not take Pomalidomide Krka:

  • if you are pregnant, think you might be pregnant, or intend to become pregnant, as Pomalidomide Krka is expected to be harmful to the unborn baby. (Men and women taking this medicine should read the section “Pregnancy, contraception and breastfeeding – information for women and men” below);
  • if you can become pregnant, unless you are taking all necessary measures to avoid pregnancy (see “Pregnancy, contraception and breastfeeding – information for women and men”). If you can become pregnant, your doctor will confirm with each prescription that all necessary precautions have been taken and will provide you with this confirmation;
  • if you are allergic to pomalidomide or to any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6). If you think you may be allergic, consult your doctor.

If you are not sure whether any of the above situations apply to you, consult your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse before starting to take Pomalidomide Krka.

Warnings and precautions

Talk to your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse before starting to take Pomalidomide Krka if:

  • you have ever had blood clots in the past. During treatment with Pomalidomide Krka, you have an increased risk of developing blood clots in your veins or arteries. Your doctor may recommend additional treatments (e.g., warfarin) or reducing your dose of Pomalidomide Krka to lower the risk of blood clots;
  • you have previously experienced an allergic reaction, such as skin rash, itching, swelling, dizziness, or breathing problems while taking related medicines called “thalidomide” or “lenalidomide”;
  • you have had a heart attack, have heart failure, have difficulty breathing, or if you are a smoker, have high blood pressure or high cholesterol levels;
  • you have a high overall 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. You may also experience irregular heartbeats. This condition is called tumor lysis syndrome;
  • you currently suffer from or have previously had neuropathy (nerve damage causing tingling or pain in your feet or hands);
  • you have or have previously had hepatitis B virus infection. Treatment with Pomalidomide Krka may reactivate the hepatitis B virus in patients who carry the virus, leading to a recurrence of the infection. Your doctor should check whether you have ever had a hepatitis B virus infection;
  • you are currently experiencing or have previously experienced a combination of any of the following symptoms: facial or widespread rash, redness of the skin, high fever, flu-like symptoms, enlarged lymph nodes (symptoms of a serious skin reaction called drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms or DRESS syndrome, or drug hypersensitivity syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis [TEN], or Stevens-Johnson syndrome [SJS]. See also section 4 “Possible side effects”).

It is important to note that patients with multiple myeloma treated with pomalidomide may develop other types of cancer, so your doctor must carefully evaluate the benefits and risks before prescribing this medicine.

At any time during or after treatment, inform your doctor or nurse immediately if you experience: blurred vision, loss of vision or double vision, difficulty speaking, weakness in one arm or leg, a change in the way you walk, problems with balance, persistent numbness, reduced sensation or loss of sensation, memory loss or confusion. All of these may be symptoms of a serious and potentially life-threatening brain disease known as progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). If you had any of these symptoms before starting treatment with Pomalidomide Krka, inform your doctor immediately if you notice any changes in these symptoms.

At the end of treatment, you must return all unused capsules to the pharmacist.

Pregnancy, contraception and breastfeeding: information for men and women

You must follow the instructions included in the Pomalidomide Krka Pregnancy Prevention Programme. Men and women taking Pomalidomide Krka must not father a child or become pregnant. This is because pomalidomide is expected to be harmful to the unborn baby. You and your partner must use effective contraception methods while taking this medicine.

Women

Do not take Pomalidomide Krka if you are pregnant, think you might be pregnant, or intend to become pregnant. This is because this medicine is expected to be harmful to the unborn baby. Before starting treatment, you must inform your doctor if there is any possibility that you could become pregnant, even if you think this is unlikely.

If you can become pregnant:

  • you must use effective contraceptive methods starting at least 4 weeks before beginning treatment, throughout the entire treatment period, and for at least
  • 4 weeks after stopping treatment. Your doctor will advise you on the most appropriate contraceptive methods;
  • each time your doctor prescribes a new prescription, they will ensure that you understand the necessary measures to prevent pregnancy;
  • your doctor will schedule pregnancy tests before treatment, at least every 4 weeks during treatment, and at least 4 weeks after treatment ends.

If you become pregnant despite preventive measures:

  • you must stop treatment immediately and inform your doctor immediately.

Breastfeeding

It is unknown whether Pomalidomide Krka passes into human breast milk. Inform your doctor if you are breastfeeding or intend to breastfeed. Your doctor will advise you whether you can continue or should stop breastfeeding.

Men

Pomalidomide Krka passes into human semen.

  • If your partner is pregnant or could become pregnant, you must use condoms throughout the entire treatment period and for 7 days after stopping treatment.
  • If your partner becomes pregnant while you are taking pomalidomide, inform your doctor immediately. Your partner must also inform her doctor immediately.

You must not donate semen or sperm during treatment and for 7 days after stopping treatment.

Blood donation and blood tests

You must not donate blood during treatment and for 7 days after treatment has ended. Before starting treatment with Pomalidomide Krka and during treatment, you will have periodic blood tests. This is because your medicine may cause a decrease in the number of blood cells that help fight infections (white blood cells) and in the number of cells that help stop bleeding (platelets).

Your doctor will request that you have blood tests:

  • before starting treatment;
  • weekly during the first 8 weeks of treatment;
  • at least once a month while continuing to take Pomalidomide Krka.

Your doctor may adjust the dose of Pomalidomide Krka or interrupt your treatment, depending on the results of these tests. Your doctor may also adjust the dose or interrupt this medicine due to your overall health condition.

Children and adolescents

The use of Pomalidomide Krka is not recommended in children and adolescents under 18 years of age.

Other medicines and Pomalidomide Krka

Inform your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse if you are taking, have recently taken, or might need to take any other medicines. This is because Pomalidomide Krka may affect how other medicines work. In addition, some medicines may affect how Pomalidomide Krka works.

In particular, inform your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse before taking Pomalidomide Krka if you are taking any of the following medicines:

  • certain antifungal medicines such as ketoconazole;
  • certain antibiotics (e.g., ciprofloxacin, enoxacin);
  • certain antidepressants such as fluvoxamine.

Driving and use of machines

Some people experience fatigue, fainting, confusion, or reduced alertness while taking Pomalidomide Krka. If this happens to you, do not drive or operate tools or machinery.
