Boxed Warning
Ocular toxicity can occur during treatment with tisotumab vedotin. Use caution in patients with ocular disease or visual impairment. Patients should avoid wearing contact lenses for the entire duration of therapy unless advised by their eye care provider. Patients treated with tisotumab vedotin experienced changes in the corneal epithelium and conjunctiva in 4 clinical trials (n = 158) resulting in vision changes including severe vision loss and corneal ulceration. Conduct an ophthalmic exam including visual acuity and slit lamp exam at baseline, prior to each dose, and as clinically indicated. Administer topical corticosteroid eye drops with the first drop in each eye prior to infusion, continuing drops in each eye as prescribed for 72 hours after each infusion; the initial prescription and all renewals of any corticosteroid medication should be made only after slit lamp exam. Administer topical ocular vasoconstrictor drops in each eye immediately prior to each infusion and use cooling eye pads during the infusion. Instruct patients to administer topical lubricating eye drops for the duration of therapy and for 30 days after the last dose of tisotumab vedotin. Promptly refer patients to an eye care provider for any new or worsening ocular symptoms; an interruption of therapy, dose reduction, or discontinuation of therapy may be necessary if ocular toxicity occurs.

Mechanism Of Action
Tisotumab vedotin is a tissue factor (TF)-directed antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) consisting of 3 components including a human anti-TF IgG1-kappa antibody directed against cell surface TF; a microtubule-disrupting agent monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE); and a protease-cleavable vc (valine-citrulline) linker. TF is the primary initiator of the extrinsic blood coagulation cascade. Nonclinical data suggests that the anticancer activity of tisotumab vedotin is due to the ADC binding to TF-expressing cancer cells, followed by internalization of the ADC-TF complex and release of MMAE via proteolytic cleavage. MMAE disrupts the microtubule network of actively dividing cells, leading to cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. In vitro, tisotumab vedotin also mediates antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity.
Pharmacokinetics
Tisotumab vedotin is administered intravenously. Plasma protein binding of monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE) ranged from 68% to 82% in vitro. The steady-state volume of distribution for tisotumab vedotin is 7.83 L (CV, 19.1%). The median terminal half-life of tisotumab vedotin and unconjugated MMAE is 4.04 (range, 2.26 to 7.25) days and 2.56 (range, 1.81 to 4.1) days, respectively. Steady-state concentrations of tisotumab vedotin and unconjugated MMAE were reached after 1 treatment cycle. The linear clearance of tisotumab vedotin was 1.54 L/day (CV, 28.8%); the linear clearance of MMAE was 45.9 L/day (CV, 61.1%). Elimination of MMAE appeared to be limited by its rate of release from tisotumab vedotin. The excretion of tisotumab vedotin is not fully characterized. After a single dose of another antibody-drug conjugate that contains MMAE, 17% of the total MMAE administered was recovered in feces and 6% in urine over a 1-week period, primarily as unchanged drug.
Affected cytochrome P450 isoenzymes and drug transporters: CYP3A4, P-glycoprotein (P-gp)
Tisotumab vedotin is expected to undergo catabolism to small peptides, amino acids, unconjugated MMAE, and catabolites related to unconjugated MMAE. MMAE is released from tisotumab vedotin via proteolytic cleavage. In vitro, unconjugated MMAE is primarily metabolized by CYP3A4. At the time of FDA approval, drug interaction studies for tisotumab vedotin had not been conducted. However, the Cmax and AUC of unconjugated MMAE increased by 25% and 34%, respectively, when another antibody-drug conjugate containing MMAE was administered with a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor. The Cmax and AUC of unconjugated MMAE decreased by 44% and 46%, respectively, when another antibody-drug conjugate containing MMAE was administered with a strong CYP3A4 inducer. In vitro, MMAE is also a P-gp substrate.
The mean Cmax after one 3-week cycle at the recommended dose was 40.8 mcg/mL (+/- 8.12 mcg/mL) for tisotumab vedotin and 5.91 ng/mL (+/- 4.2 ng/mL) for unconjugated MMAE. The Tmax of tisotumab vedotin was near the end of the infusion; unconjugated MMAE concentrations peaked approximately 2 to 3 days after administration. The mean AUC was 57.5 mcg x day/mL (+/- 13.4 mcg x day/mL) for tisotumab vedotin and 50 ng x day/mL (+/- 35.8 ng x day/mL) for MMAE. The Cmax of tisotumab vedotin increased proportionally, while the AUC increased in a more than dose-proportional manner. There was no accumulation of tisotumab vedotin and unconjugated MMAE.
Pregnancy And Lactation
Pregnancy should be avoided by females of reproductive potential during tisotumab vedotin treatment and for at least 2 months after the last dose. Although there are no adequately controlled studies in pregnant women, tisotumab vedotin can cause fetal harm or death when administered during pregnancy based on its mechanism of action and animal studies. Women who are pregnant or who become pregnant while receiving tisotumab vedotin should be apprised of the potential hazard to the fetus. Embryofetal development studies in animals have not been performed with tisotumab vedotin. However, administration of the active component of tisotumab vedotin, monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE), to pregnant rats during organogenesis caused embryo-fetal mortality and structural abnormalities (e.g., protruding tongue, malrotated limbs, gastroschisis, and agnathia) at exposures below the clinical exposure at the recommended dose.
Due to the potential for serious adverse reactions in nursing infants from tisotumab vedotin, advise women to discontinue breast-feeding during treatment and for 3 weeks after the final dose. It is not known whether tisotumab vedotin is present in human milk.
