7 DRUG INTERACTIONS • CYP3A4 Inducers: Monitor for increased toxicity when used in combination with CYP3A4 inducers. ( 7.1 ) • CYP3A4 Inhibitors: Use in combination with CYP3A4 inhibitors could decrease the effectiveness of ifosfamide. ( 7.2 ) 7.1 Inducers of CYP3A4 CYP3A4 inducers may increase the metabolism of ifosfamide to its active alkylating metabolites. CYP3A4 inducers may increase the formation of the neurotoxic/nephrotoxic ifosfamide metabolite, chloroacetaldehyde. Closely monitor patients taking ifosfamide with CYP3A4 inducers for toxicities and consider dose adjustment. 7.2 Inhibitors of CYP3A4 CYP3A4 inhibitors may decrease the metabolism of ifosfamide to its active alkylating metabolites, perhaps decreasing the effectiveness of ifosfamide treatment.

8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS • Lactation: Advise not to breastfeed. ( 8.2 ) • Renal impairment: Closely monitor for adverse reactions and consider dosage modifications. (8.6) 8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Based on mechanism of action [see Clinical Pharmacology 12.1) ] , and human and animal data (see Data) , Ifosfamide for Injection can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. Fetal growth retardation and neonatal anemia have been reported following exposure to ifosfamide‐containing chemotherapy regimens during pregnancy. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2 to 4% and 15 to 20%, respectively. Data Animal Data Animal studies indicate that ifosfamide is capable of causing gene mutations and chromosomal damage in vivo . In pregnant mice, resorptions increased and anomalies were present at day 19 after a 30 mg/m 2 dose of ifosfamide was administered on day 11 of gestation. Embryo-lethal effects were observed in rats following the administration of 54 mg/m 2 doses of ifosfamide from the 6th through the 15th day of gestation and embryotoxic effects were apparent after dams received 18 mg/m 2 doses over the same dosing period. Ifosfamide is embryotoxic to rabbits receiving 88 mg/m 2 /day doses from the 6th through the 18th day after mating. The number of anomalies was also significantly increased over the control group. 8.2 Lactation Risk Summary Ifosfamide is excreted in breast milk. Because of the potential for serious adverse events, and the tumorigenicity shown for ifosfamide in animal studies, advise women not to breastfeed during treatment with Ifosfamide for Injection and for one week after the last dose. 8.3 Females and Males of Reproductive Potential Ifosfamide for Injection can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1) ] . Pregnancy Testing Verify pregnancy status in females of reproductive potential prior to initiating Ifosfamide for Injection [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1) ] . Contraception Females Advise female patients of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with Ifosfamide for Injection and for 12 months after the last dose. Males Advise males with female sexual partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with Ifosfamide for Injection and for 6 months after the last dose [see Nonclinical Toxicology (13.1) ] . Infertility Females Amenorrhea has been reported in patients treated with ifosfamide. The risk of permanent chemotherapy induced amenorrhea increases with age. Males Men treated with ifosfamide may develop oligospermia or azoospermia. Azoospermia may be reversible in some patients, though the reversibility may not occur for several years after cessation of therapy. Sexual function and libido are generally unimpaired in these patients. Some degree of testicular atrophy may occur. Patients treated with ifosfamide have subsequently fathered children. Females and Males Based on animal studies, Ifosfamide for Injection may impair fertility in females and males of reproductive potential. The reversibility of these effects is unknown [see Nonclinical Toxicology (13.1) ] . 8.4 Pediatric Use Safety and effectiveness have not been established in pediatric patients. Renal rickets and growth retardation in pediatric patients treated with ifosfamide have been reported. Ifosfamide for Injection may cause temporary or permanent infertility in prepubertal girls or in females of child-bearing potential and may have an increased risk of developing premature menopause. Ifosfamide for Injection may cause abnormal secondary sexual characteristic development in prepubertal males. Sterility, azoospermia, and testicular atrophy have been reported in male patients. Azoospermia may be reversible in some patients, but may not occur for several years after cessation of Ifosfamide for Injection …

12.1 Mechanism of Action Ifosfamide is a prodrug that requires metabolic activation by hepatic cytochrome P450 isoenzymes to exert its cytotoxic activity. Activation occurs by hydroxylation at the ring carbon atom forming the unstable intermediate 4‐hydroxyifosfamide and its ring-opened aldo tautomer, which decomposes to yield the cytotoxic and urotoxic compound acrolein and an alkylating isophosphoramide mustard isophosphoramide mustard. The exact mechanism of action of ifosfamide has not been determined, but its cytotoxic action is primarily through DNA crosslinks caused by alkylation by the isophosphoramide mustard at guanine N-7 positions. The formation of inter- and intra-strand cross-links in the DNA results in cell death.

11 DESCRIPTION Ifosfamide for Injection (ifosfamide for injection, USP) single-dose vials for constitution and administration by intravenous infusion each contain 1 gram or 3 grams of sterile ifosfamide. Ifosfamide is a alkylating drug chemically related to the nitrogen mustards and a synthetic analog of cyclophosphamide. Ifosfamide is 3-(2-chloroethyl)-2-[(2-chloroethyl)amino]tetrahydro-2H-1,3,2-oxazaphosphorine 2-oxide. The molecular formula is C 7 H 15 Cl 2 N 2 O 2 P and its molecular weight is 261.1. Ifosfamide is a white crystalline powder soluble in water. There are no excipients in the formulation. Each vial contains 1 gram or 3 grams of sterile ifosfamide alone. Its structural formula is: Ifosfamide NovaPlus Structural Formula

10 OVERDOSAGE No specific antidote for Ifosfamide for Injection is known. Patients who receive an overdose should be closely monitored for the development of toxicities. Serious consequences of overdosage include manifestations of dose-dependent toxicities such as CNS toxicity, nephrotoxicity, myelosuppression, and mucositis [ see Warnings and Precautions (5) ]. Management of overdosage would include general supportive measures to sustain the patient through any period of toxicity that might occur, including appropriate state-of-the-art treatment for any concurrent infection, myelosuppression, or other toxicity. Ifosfamide as well as ifosfamide metabolites are dialyzable. Cystitis prophylaxis with mesna may be helpful in preventing or limiting urotoxic effects with overdose.
