The dosing regimen of CABLIVI in HERCULES resulted in proven efficacy and safety1,2
CABLIVI treatment starts at the hospital and continues at home. Prior to discharge, patients or caregivers should be taught how to reconstitute and administer CABLIVI.
IN THE HOSPITAL
DAY 1
INITIATION OF CABLIVI
11-mg bolus IV injection before PEX* + 11-mg SC injection after PEX
VARIABLE
ADMINISTRATION DURING PEX PERIOD
11-mg SC injection daily after PEX
*Administer bolus dose at least 15 minutes prior to PEX.
If a dose of CABLIVI is missed during the PEX period, it should be given as soon as possible1
AT HOME
30 DAYS
ADMINISTRATION AFTER PEX PERIOD
11-mg SC injection daily
UP TO 28 DAYS
TREATMENT EXTENSION (IF NEEDED†)
11-mg SC injection daily

†Administration can be continued for up to 28 additional days if signs of underlying disease persist, such as suppressed ADAMTS13 levels.
Discontinue CABLIVI if the patient experiences >2 recurrences of acquired/immune-mediated thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (aTTP/iTTP) while on CABLIVI.
Withhold CABLIVI treatment 7 days prior to elective surgery, dental procedures, or other invasive interventions.
In HERCULES, the median duration of treatment with CABLIVI was 35 days and mean days receiving PEX was approximately 6 days2‡
HERCULES was a pivotal, phase 3, double-blind, randomized controlled trial of 145 patients with aTTP/iTTP assessing the efficacy and safety of CABLIVI in combination with PEX and immunosuppressive therapy.
‡In HERCULES, the mean number of days receiving PEX for patients receiving CABLIVI was 5.8 days.2
IV=intravenous; PEX=plasma exchange; SC=subcutaneous.
