Use In Pregnancy & Lactation
Women of child-bearing potential/Contraception: Women of child-bearing potential should use effective contraception during and for 3 months after cessation of amivantamab treatment.
Pregnancy: There are no human data to assess the risk of amivantamab use during pregnancy. No animal reproductive studies were conducted to inform a drug-associated risk. Administration of EGFR and MET inhibitor molecules in pregnant animals resulted in an increased incidence of impairment of embryo-foetal development, embryo lethality, and abortion. Therefore, based on its mechanism of action and findings in animal models, amivantamab could cause foetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. Amivantamab should not be given during pregnancy unless the benefit of treatment of the woman is considered to outweigh potential risks to the foetus. If the patient becomes pregnant while taking this medicinal product the patient should be informed of the potential risk to the foetus (see Pharmacology: Toxicology: Preclinical safety data under Actions).
Breast-feeding: It is unknown whether amivantamab is excreted in human milk. Human IgGs are known to be excreted in breast milk during the first few days after birth, which is decreasing to low concentrations soon afterwards. A risk to the breast-fed child cannot be excluded during this short period just after birth, although IgGs are likely to be degraded in the gastrointestinal tract of the breast-fed child and not absorbed. A decision must be made whether to discontinue breast-feeding or to discontinue/abstain from amivantamab therapy taking into account the benefit of breast-feeding for the child and the benefit of therapy for the woman.
Fertility: There are no data on the effect of amivantamab on human fertility. Effects on male and female fertility have not been evaluated in animal studies.
