1. What is Plerixafor Eugia and what is it used for

Plerixafor Eugia contains the active substance plerixafor, which blocks a protein on the surface of hematopoietic stem cells. This protein "fixes" the stem cells to the bone marrow. Plerixafor improves the release of stem cells into the bloodstream (mobilization). The stem cells can then be collected using a machine that separates the components of the blood (apheresis machine), then frozen and stored until they are transplanted.

If mobilization is poor, plerixafor is given to help collect stem cells from the patient's blood for collection, storage, and re-infusion (transplantation):

  • In adult patients with lymphoma (a cancer of white blood cells) or multiple myeloma (a cancer that affects the plasma cells of the bone marrow).
  • In children from 1 to less than 18 years with lymphoma or solid tumors.

Warnings and precautions

  • If you have or have had any heart problems.
  • If you have kidney problems. Your doctor may adjust your dose.
  • If you have a high number of white blood cells.
  • If you have a low number of platelets.
  • If you have a history of feeling faint or dizzy while standing or sitting, or if you have fainted after injections in the past.

Your doctor may perform blood tests periodicallyto monitor the number of blood cells.

Plerixafor is not recommended for stem cell mobilization if you have leukemia (a cancer of the blood or bone marrow).

Other medicines andPlerixafor Eugia

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicines.

Pregnancy and breast-feeding

Do not use plerixafor if you are pregnant, as there are no data on the effects of plerixafor in pregnant women. It is important that you inform your doctor if you are pregnant, think you may be pregnant, or plan to become pregnant. The use of contraceptive methods is recommended if you are of childbearing age.

Do not breast-feed if you are using this medicine, as it is not known whether plerixafor passes into breast milk.

Driving and using machines

Plerixafor may cause dizziness and fatigue. Therefore, you should avoid driving if you feel dizzy, tired, or unwell.

Plerixafor Eugia contains sodium

This medicine contains less than 1 mmol of sodium (23 mg) per dose; this is essentially "sodium-free".

3. How to use Plerixafor Eugia

A doctor or nurse will inject your medicine.

First, you will receive G-CSF and then plerixafor will be administered

Mobilization will begin by administering another medicine called G-CSF (granulocyte colony-stimulating factor) first. G-CSF will help plerixafor work properly in your body. If you want more information about G-CSF, ask your doctor and read the corresponding package leaflet.

How much Plerixafor Eugia is administered?

The recommended dose in adults is 20 mg (fixed dose) or 0.24 mg/kg body weight/day.

The recommended dose in children, from 1 to less than 18 years, is 0.24 mg/kg body weight/day.

Your dose will depend on your body weight, which must be measured the week before you receive the first dose. If you have moderate or severe kidney problems, your doctor will reduce the dose.

How is Plerixafor Eugia administered?

Plerixafor is administered by subcutaneous injection (under the skin).

When is Plerixafor Eugia administered for the first time?

You will receive the first dose between 6 and 11 hours before apheresis (collection of stem cells from your blood).

How long will the administration of Plerixafor Eugia last?

Treatment lasts from 2 to 4 consecutive days (in some cases up to 7 days), until enough stem cells have been collected for transplantation. In some cases, it may not be possible to collect enough stem cells, so the collection attempt will be interrupted.
