Treatment-related mortality associated with docetaxel n- is increased in patients with abnormal liver function, in patients receiving higher doses, and in patients with non-small cell lung carcinoma and a history of prior treatment with platinum-based chemotherapy who receive docetaxel as a single agent at a dose of 100 mg/mn n
Avoid the use of docetaxel in patients with bilirubin > upper limit of normal (ULN), or to patients with AST and/or ALT >1.5 u00d7 ULN concomitant with alkaline phosphatase >2.5 u00d7 ULN. Patients with elevations of bilirubin or abnormalities of transaminase concurrent with alkaline phosphatase are at increased risk for the development of severe neutropenia, febrile neutropenia, infections, severe thrombocytopenia, severe stomatitis, severe skin toxicity, and toxic death. Patients with isolated elevations of transaminase >1.5 u00d7 ULN also had a higher rate of febrile neutropenia. Measure bilirubin, AST or ALT, and alkaline phosphatase prior to each cycle of docetaxel .
Do not administer docetaxel to patients with neutrophil counts of <1500 cells/mm. Monitor blood counts frequently as neutropenia may be severe and result in infection.
Do not administer docetaxel to patients who have a history of severe hypersensitivity reactions to docetexel or to other drugs formulated with polysorbate 80 . Severe hypersensitivity reactions have been reported in patients despite dexamethasone premedication. Hypersensitivity reactions require immediate discontinuation of the docetaxel infusion and administration of appropriate therapy .
Severe fluid retention occurred in 6.5% (6/92) of patients despite use of u00a0dexamethasone premedication. It was characterized by one or more of the following events: poorly tolerated peripheral edema, generalized edema, pleural effusion requiring urgent drainage, dyspnea at rest, cardiac tamponade, or pronounced abdominal distention (due to ascites) n
WARNING: TOXIC DEATHS, HEPATOTOXICITY, NEUTROPENIA, HYPERSENSITIVITY REACTIONS, and FLUID RETENTION
See full prescribing information for complete boxed warning.

Treatment-related mortality increases with abnormal liver function, at higher doses, and in patients with NSCLC and prior platinum-based therapy receiving docetaxel at 100 mg/m. ()
Avoid use of docetaxel if bilirubin > ULN, or if AST and/or ALT >1.5 u00d7 ULN concomitant with alkaline phosphatase >2.5 u00d7 ULN. LFT elevations increase risk of severe or life-threatening complications. Obtain LFTs before each treatment cycle. ()
Do not administer docetaxel to patients with neutrophil counts <1500 cells/mm. Obtain frequent blood counts to monitor for neutropenia. (, )
Severe hypersensitivity, including fatal anaphylaxis, has been reported in patients who received dexamethasone premedication. Severe reactions require immediate discontinuation of docetaxel and administration of appropriate therapy. ()
Contraindicated if history of severe hypersensitivity reactions to docetaxel or to drugs formulated with polysorbate 80. ()
Severe fluid retention may occur despite dexamethasone. ()n

The most serious adverse reactions from docetaxel are:
The most common adverse reactions across all docetaxel indications are infections, neutropenia, anemia, febrile neutropenia, hypersensitivity, thrombocytopenia, neuropathy, dysgeusia, dyspnea, constipation, anorexia, nail disorders, fluid retention, asthenia, pain, nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, mucositis, alopecia, skin reactions, and myalgia. Incidence varies depending on the indication.
Adverse reactions are described according to indication. Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.
Responding patients may not experience an improvement in performance status on therapy and may experience worsening. The relationship between changes in performance status, response to therapy, and treatment-related side effects has not been established.
Most common adverse reactions across all docetaxel indications are infections, neutropenia, anemia, febrile neutropenia, hypersensitivity, thrombocytopenia, neuropathy, dysgeusia, dyspnea, constipation, anorexia, nail disorders, fluid retention, asthenia, pain, nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, mucositis, alopecia, skin reactions, and myalgia. n n

There is no known antidote for docetaxel overdosage. In case of overdosage, the patient should be kept in a specialized unit where vital functions can be closely monitored. Anticipated complications of overdosage include: bone marrow suppression, peripheral neurotoxicity, and mucositis. Patients should receive therapeutic G-CSF as soon as possible after discovery of overdose. Other appropriate symptomatic measures should be taken, as needed.u00a0
In two reports of overdose, one patient received 150 mg/m and the other received 200 mg/m as 1-hour infusions. Both patients experienced severe neutropenia, mild asthenia, cutaneous reactions, and mild paresthesia, and recovered without incident.
In mice, lethality was observed following single intravenous doses that were u2265154 mg/kg (about 4.5 times the human dose of 100 mg/m on a mg/m basis); neurotoxicity associated with paralysis, non-extension of hind limbs, and myelin degeneration was observed in mice at 48 mg/kg (about 1.5 times the human dose of 100 mg/m basis). In male and female rats, lethality was observed at a dose of 20 mg/kg (comparable to the human dose of 100 mg/m on a mg/m basis) and was associated with abnormal mitosis and necrosis of multiple organs.

Docetaxel is an antineoplastic agent belonging to the taxoid family. It is prepared by semisynthesis beginning with a precursor extracted from the renewable needle biomass of yew plants. The chemical name for docetaxel anhydrous is benzenepropanoic acid, -[[(1,1-dimethylethoxy) carbonyl) amino]-u03b1-hydroxy-, 12b- (acetyloxy)-12-(benzoyloxy)-2a,3,4,4a,5,6,9,10,11,12,12a,12b-dodecahydro-4,6,11-trihydroxy-4a,8,13,13-tetramethyl-5-oxo-7,11-methano-1-cyclodeca[3,4]benz[1,2-]oxet-9-yl ester. Docetaxel anhydrous has the following structural formula:
u00a0n
Docetaxel anhydrous, USP is a white or almost-white crystalline powder with an empirical formula of CHNO, and a molecular weight of 807.88. It is u00a0practically insoluble in water, soluble in acetone and methanol.
Arrayn- One-vial Docetaxel Injection, USP
Docetaxel Injection, USP is a sterile, non-pyrogenic, pale yellow to brownish-yellow solution at 20 mg/mL concentration.
Each mL contains 20 mg docetaxel anhydrous USP, 0.4 mg citric acid anhydrous in 0.54 grams polysorbate 80 and 0.395 grams dehydrated alcohol solution.
Docetaxel Injection, USP is available in single-dose vials containing 20 mg (1 mL), 80 mg (4 mL) and 160 mg (8 mL) docetaxel anhydrous, USP.
Docetaxel Injection, USP requires NO prior dilution with a diluent and is ready to add to the infusion solution.

No data

Carcinogenicity studies with docetaxel have not been performed.
Docetaxel was clastogenic in the chromosome aberration test in CHO-K cells and in the micronucleus test in mice administered doses of 0.39 to 1.56 mg/kg (about 1/60 to 1/15 the recommended human dose on a mg/m basis). Docetaxel was not mutagenic in the Ames test or the CHO/HGPRT gene mutation assays.
Docetaxel did not reduce fertility in rats when administered in multiple intravenous doses of up to 0.3 mg/kg (about 1/50 the recommended human dose on a mg/m basis), but decreased testicular weights were reported. This correlates with findings of a 10-cycle toxicity study (dosing once every 21 days for 6 months) in rats and dogs in which testicular atrophy or degeneration was observed at intravenous doses of 5 mg/kg in rats and 0.375 mg/kg in dogs (about 1/3 and 1/15 the recommended human dose on a mg/m basis, respectively). An increased frequency of dosing in rats produced similar effects at lower dose levels.
