  • 1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE

     

    1.1 Stage B2-C Prostatic Carcinoma

    ZOLADEX is indicated for use in combination with flutamide for the management of locally confined Stage T2b-T4 (Stage B2-C) carcinoma of the prostate. Treatment with ZOLADEX and flutamide should start 8 weeks prior to initiating radiation therapy and continue during radiation therapy [see Dosage and Administration (2.1)and Clinical Studies (14.1)].

    1.2 Prostatic Carcinoma

    ZOLADEX is indicated in the palliative treatment of advanced carcinoma of the prostate [see Dosage and Administration (2.2) and Clinical Studies (14.2)].

    1.3 Endometriosis

    ZOLADEX is indicated for the management of endometriosis, including pain relief and reduction of endometriotic lesions for the duration of therapy. Experience with ZOLADEX for the management of endometriosis has been limited to women 18 years of age and older treated for 6 months [see Dosage and Administration (2.3) andClinical Studies (14.3)].

    1.4 Endometrial Thinning

    ZOLADEX is indicated for use as an endometrial-thinning agent prior to endometrial ablation for dysfunctional uterine bleeding [see Dosage and Administration (2.4) and Clinical Studies (14.4)].

    1.5 Advanced Breast Cancer

    ZOLADEX is indicated for use in the palliative treatment of advanced breast cancer in pre- and perimenopausal women.

    The estrogen and progesterone receptor values may help to predict whether ZOLADEX therapy is likely to be beneficial [seeDosage and Administration (2.6), Clinical Pharmacology (12.1), and Clinical Studies (14.5)].

    The automatic safety feature of the syringe aids in the prevention of needlestick injury.

  • 2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION

    ZOLADEX, at a dose of 3.6 mg, should be administered subcutaneously every 28 days into the anterior abdominal wall below the navel line using an aseptic technique under the supervision of a physician [see Dosage and Administration (2.7)].

    While a delay of a few days is permissible, every effort should be made to adhere to the 28-day schedule.

    2.1 Stage B2-C Prostatic Carcinoma

    When ZOLADEX is given in combination with radiotherapy and flutamide for patients with Stage T2b-T4 (Stage B2-C) prostatic carcinoma, treatment should be started 8 weeks prior to initiating radiotherapy and should continue during radiation therapy. A treatment regimen using a ZOLADEX 3.6 mg depot 8 weeks before radiotherapy, followed in 28 days by the ZOLADEX 10.8 mg depot, can be administered. Alternatively, four injections of 3.6 mg depot can be administered at 28-day intervals, two depots preceding and two during radiotherapy.
