Indications and Dosage
Intravenous
Extensive-stage small cell lung cancer
Adult: To decrease the incidence of chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression when administered before a platinum/etoposide-containing regimen or topotecan-containing regimen: 240 mg/m2 via infusion over 30 minutes to be completed within 4 hours before starting chemotherapy on each day chemotherapy is given. Dosing interval on sequential days should not be >28 hours. Slower infusion, dosing interruption, or discontinuation may be required according to individual safety or tolerability (refer to detailed product guidelines).
Hepatic Impairment
Moderate to severe: Not recommended.
Reconstitution
Reconstitute vial with 19.5 mL of NaCl 0.9% or dextrose 5% in water to obtain a concentration of 15 mg/mL. Swirl the vial gently for up to 3 minutes until the sterile lyophilised cake is completely dissolved; do not shake. To prepare the solution for infusion, withdraw the required volume from the vial(s) of reconstituted solution and further dilute in an infusion bag containing NaCl 0.9% or dextrose 5% in water to a final concentration of 0.5-3 mg/mL. Gently invert the infusion bag to mix; do not shake.
Contraindications
Hypersensitivity. Pregnancy and lactation.

Patient Counseling Information
Women of childbearing potential must use proven birth control methods during therapy and for ≥3 weeks after stopping the treatment. Do not breastfeed during and for ≥3 weeks after stopping treatment.
Monitoring Parameters
Evaluate pregnancy status prior to initiating treatment in patients who may become pregnant. Monitor for signs and symptoms of infusion site reactions (e.g. pain, erythema), acute hypersensitivity reactions (e.g. urticaria, pruritus, anaphylaxis; facial, eye, and tongue oedema), and pulmonary symptoms associated with ILD/pneumonitis (e.g. cough, dyspnoea, hypoxia).
Drug Interactions
May increase the concentration or net accumulation of certain organic cation transporter (OCT) 2, multidrug and toxin extrusion (MATE) transporter 1, and MATE-2K substrates in the kidney (e.g. dofetilide, dalfampridine, cisplatin).
Action
Description:
Mechanism of Action: Trilaciclib is a selective, highly potent, and reversible inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6 (CDK4/6). It transiently induces haematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) G1 cell cycle arrest, thereby preventing cell proliferation and resulting in myelopreservation.
Pharmacokinetics:
Metabolism: Extensively metabolised.
Excretion: Mainly via faeces (approx 79.1%; 7% as unchanged drug); urine (14%; 2% as unchanged drug). Elimination half-life: Approx 14 hours.
