TABLE 1:

Indications for Cessation of 177Lu-DOTATATE or 177Lu-Vipivotide Tetraxetan Therapy After Toxicity Develops

Therapy and Toxicity Indication for Cessation
l77Lu- DOTATATEa
Thrombocytopenia Recurrent grade 2, 3, or 4 AE after withholding of agent until complete or partial resolution (grade 0 or 1 AE) and restarting at a reduced dose
Permanently discontinue if grade 2 or greater thrombocytopenia results in a delay of 16 wk or more
Anemia and neutropenia Recurrent grade 3 or 4 AE after withholding of agent until complete or partial resolution (grade 0, 1, or 2 AE) and restarting at a reduced dose
Permanently discontinue if grade 3 or greater anemia or neutropenia results in a delay of 16 wk or more
Renal toxicity Recurrent renal toxicity after withholding of agent until complete resolution or return to baseline and restarting at a reduced dose
Permanently discontinue if renal toxicity results in a delay 16 wk or more
Hepatotoxicity Recurrent hepatotoxicity after withholding of agent until complete resolution or return to baseline and restarting at a reduced dose
Permanently discontinue if hepatotoxicity results in a delay 16 wk or more
Any other possibly related CTCAE grade 3 or grade 4 AE Recurrent grade 3 AE after dose reduction after withholding of agent until complete or partial resolution (grade 0, 1, or 2 AE) and restarting at a reduced dose
Permanently discontinue for grade 3 or greater AE that results in a delay 16 wk or more
l77Lu–vipivotide tetraxetanb
Myelosuppression Recurrent grade 3 or greater AE after one dose reduction
Renal toxicity Grade 3 or greater AE
Recurrent renal toxicity after one dose reduction
Xerostomia Grade 3 or greater AE
Gastrointestinal toxicity Grade 3 or greater AE (not amenable to medical intervention)
Recurrent grade 3 or greater AE after one dose reduction
Transaminitis Five times upper limit of normal, in the absence of hepatic metastases
Nonhematologic toxicity Any unacceptable toxicity
Any serious AE that delays therapy more than 4 wk
Any grade 3 or 4 AE or persistent intolerable grade 2 AE after one dose reduction
