DescriptionBlinatumomab is a BiTE-class (bi-specific T-cell engagers) constructed monoclonal antibody indicated for the treatment of Philadelphia chromosome-negative relapsed or refractory B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Blinatumomab is manufactured by Amgen Inc. and marketed under the brand Blincyto™. A full treatment regimen consisting of two cycles of four weeks each, is priced at $178 000 USD. Blinatumomab was approved in December 2014 under the FDA’s accelerated approval program, which allows approval of a drug to treat a serious or life-threatening disease based on clinical data showing the drug has an effect on a surrogate endpoint reasonably likely to predict clinical benefit to patients.
Indication/DiseaseIndicated for the treatment of Philadelphia chromosome-negative relapsed or refractory B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).
Pharmacodynamics NA
Mechanism of ActionBlinatumomab is a bispecific CD19-directed CD3 T-cell engager that binds to CD19 expressed on the surface of cells of B-lineage origin and CD3 expressed on the surface of T cells. It activates endogenous T cells by connecting CD3 in the T-cell receptor (TCR) complex with CD19 on benign and malignant B cells. Blinatumomab mediates the formation of a synapse between the T cell and the tumor cell, upregulation of cell adhesion molecules, production of cytolytic proteins, release of inflammatory cytokines, and proliferation of T cells, which result in redirected lysis of CD19+ cells.
Toxicity Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS), which may be life-threatening or fatal, occurred in patients receiving blinatumomab. Interrupt or discontinue blinatumomab as recommended. - Neurological toxicities, which may be severe, life-threatening, or fatal, occurred in patients receiving blinatumomab. Interrupt or discontinue blinatumomab as recommended. - In patients receiving blinatumomab in clinical trials, serious infections such as sepsis, pneumonia, bacteremia, opportunistic infections, and catheter-site infections were observed in approximately 25% of patients, some of which were life-threatening or fatal. - Tumor lysis syndrome (TLS), which may be life-threatening or fatal, has been observed in patients. - Neutropenia and febrile neutropenia, including life-threatening cases, have been observed in patients. - Treatment with blinatumomab was associated with transient elevations in liver enzymes. - Cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) changes showing leukoencephalopathy have been observed in patients receiving blinatumomab, especially in patients with prior treatment with cranial irradiation and antileukemic chemotherapy (including systemic high-dose methotrexate or intrathecal cytarabine).
MetabolismThe metabolic pathway of blinatumomab has not been characterized. Like other protein therapeutics, blinatumomab is expected to be degraded into small peptides and amino acids via catabolic pathways.

Physcial Appearancelyophilized powder for intravenous administration
Route of AdministrationIntravenous
Recommended DosageA single cycle of treatment of BLINCYTO consists of 4 weeks of continuous intravenous infusion followed by a 2-week treatment-free interval. For patients at least 45 kg in weight: In Cycle 1, administer BLINCYTO at 9 mcg/day on Days 1–7 and at 28 mcg/day on Days 8–28. For subsequent cycles, administer BLINCYTO at 28 mcg/day on Days 1–28.
