What is Cisplatin?
Cisplatin Injection is a sterile aqueous solution, available in 50, 100 and 200 ml multiple dose vials, each ml containing 1 mg of cisplatin and 9 mg sodium chloride in water for injection. HCl and/or sodium hydroxide added to adjust pH to 3.5 to 4.5.
Cisplatin (cis-diamminedichloroplatinum) is a heavy metal complex containing a central atom of platinum surrounded by two chloride atoms and two ammonia molecules in the cis position. It is a white powder with the molecular formula PtCl2H6N2, and a molecular weight of 300.05. It is soluble in water or saline at 1 mg/ml and in dimethylformamide at 24 mg/ml. It has a melting point of 207F.
Indications
Cisplatin injection is indicated as therapy to be employed as follows:
Metastatic Testicular Tumors – In established combination therapy with other approved chemotherapeutic agents in patients with metastatic testicular tumors who have already received appropriate surgical and/or radiotherapeutic procedures.
Metastatic Ovarian Tumors – In established combination therapy with other approved chemotherapeutic agents in patients with metastatic ovarian tumors who have already received appropriate surgical and/or radiotherapeutic procedures. An established combination consists of cisplatin and cyclophosphamide. Cisplatin, as a single agent, is indicated as secondary therapy in patients with metastatic ovarian tumors refractory to standard chemotherapy who have not previously received cisplatin therapy.
Advanced Bladder Cancer – Cisplatin is indicated as a single agent for patients with transitional cell bladder cancer which is no longer amenable to local treatments such as surgery and/or radiotherapy.
Dosage and Administration
Metastatic Testicular Tumors – The usual cisplatin dose for the treatment of testicular cancer in combination with other approved chemotherapeutic agents is 20 mg/m2 IV daily for 5 days per cycle.
Metastatic Ovarian Tumors – The usual cisplatin dose for the treatment of metastatic ovarian tumors in combination with cyclophosphamide is 75 to 100 mg/m2 IV per cycle once every four weeks (DAY 1).
The dose of cyclophosphamide when used in combination with cisplatin is 600 mg/m2 IV once every four weeks (DAY 1).
For directions for the administration of cyclophosphamide, refer to the cyclophosphamide package insert.
In combination therapy, cisplatin and cyclophosphamide are administered sequentially.
As a single agent, cisplatin should be administered at a dose of 100 mg/m2 IV per cycle once every four weeks.
Advanced Bladder Cancer- Cisplatin should be administered as a single agent at a dose of 50 to 70 mg/m2 IV per cycle once every 3 to 4 weeks depending on the extent of prior exposure to radiation therapy and/or prior chemotherapy. For heavily pretreated patients an initial dose of 50 mg/m2 per cycle repeated every four weeks is recommended.
