12 OVERDOSAGE
There is no known specific antidote for BORTEZOMIB overdosage. In humans, fatal outcomes following the administration of more than twice the recommended therapeutic dose have been reported, which were associated with the acute onset of symptomatic hypotension (8.2) and thrombocytopenia (8.7). In the event of an overdosage, the patient’s vital signs should be monitored and appropriate supportive care given.

Studies in monkeys and dogs showed that intravenous bortezomib doses as low as two times the recommended clinical dose on a mg/m2 basis were associated with increases in heart rate, decreases in contractility, hypotension, and death. In dog studies, a slight increase in the corrected QT interval was observed at doses resulting in death. In monkeys, doses of 3.0 mg/m 2 and greater (approximately twice the recommended clinical dose) resulted in hypotension starting at one hour postadministration, with progression to death in 12 to 14 hours following drug administration.

13 DESCRIPTION
BORTEZOMIB FRESENIUS KABI 3.5 mg for Injection, a proteasome inhibitor, contains bortezomib which is an antineoplastic agent.
Bortezomib is a modified dipeptidyl boronic acid. The chemical name for bortezomib, the monomeric boronic acid, is [(1R)-3-methyl-1- [[(2S)-1-oxo-3-phenyl-2- [(pyrazinylcarbonyl) amino]propyl]amino]butyl] boronic acid.
Bortezomib has the following chemical structure:



The molecular weight is 384.24. The molecular formula is C19H25BN4O4. The solubility of bortezomib, as the monomeric boronic acid, in water is 3.3 to 3.8 mg/mL in a pH range of 2 to 6.5.
BORTEZOMIB FRESENIUS KABI 3.5 mg, powder for solution for injection, is available for intravenous injection or subcutaneous use.
Each vial contains 3.5 mg of bortezomib as a lyophilized powder or cake. It also contains the inactive ingredient: 35 mg mannitol. The product is provided as a mannitol boronic ester which, in reconstituted form, consists of the mannitol ester in equilibrium with its hydrolysis product, the monomeric boronic acid. The drug substance exists in its cyclic anhydride form as a trimeric boroxine.
