The Power of ANKTIVA®

ANKTIVA is an interleukin-15 (IL-15) superagonist, which is a type of immunotherapy that causes natural killer and T cells to increase in numbers and become more active without activating immunosuppressive T reg cells.

The efficacy outcome measures for the QUILT 3.032 study were complete response (CR) at any time, defined as negative cystoscopy and urine cytology, and duration of response.

Irv’s Journey

Irv’s Journey

He was first diagnosed with bladder cancer in 2016, when 
on Thanksgiving day, he had several concerning symptoms including blood in his urine. Several tumors on the interior surface of his bladder were removed by his local urologist, 
who treated him with BCG. Unfortunately, he failed to respond and the tumors came back. He was afraid he was going to lose his bladder.

Wayne’s Journey

Wayne’s Journey

Wayne has lived a rich life with his wife, two daughters, and three grandchildren. He describes himself as someone who “just likes people”. When he was first told, “you might have a tumor in your bladder”, he became very concerned, especially when he learned his first treatment with BCG wasn’t working. Wayne feels lucky that a friend told him about a clinical trial for patients like himself who were not cured by BCG alone.

Indication and Important Safety Information

INDICATION AND USAGE

ANKTIVA is an interleukin-15 (IL-15) receptor agonist indicated with Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) for the treatment of adult patients with BCG-unresponsive non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) with carcinoma in situ (CIS) with or without papillary tumors.

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

Risk of Metastatic Bladder Cancer with Delayed Cystectomy. Delaying cystectomy can lead to the development of muscle invasive or metastatic bladder cancer, which can be lethal. If patients with CIS do not have a complete response to treatment after a second induction course of ANKTIVA with BCG, reconsider cystectomy.

DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION

For lntravesical Use Only. Do not administer by subcutaneous or intravenous routes. Instill intravesically only after dilution. Total time from vial puncture to the completion of the intravesical instillation should not exceed 2 hours.

USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS

Pregnancy: May cause fetal harm. Advise females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to a fetus and to use effective contraception.

ADVERSE REACTIONS

The most common (≥15%) adverse reactions, including laboratory test abnormalities, are increased creatinine, dysuria, hematuria, urinary frequency, micturition urgency, urinary tract infection, increased potassium, musculoskeletal pain, chills and pyrexia.
