INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE The following Coverage Policy applies to health benefit plans administered by Cigna Companies. Certain Cigna Companies and/or lines of business only provide utilization review services to clients and do not make coverage determinations. References to standard benefit plan language and coverage determinations do not apply to those clients. Coverage Policies are intended to provide guidance in interpreting certain standard benefit plans administered by Cigna Companies. Please note, the terms of a customer’s particular benefit plan document [Group Service Agreement, Evidence of Coverage, Certificate of Coverage, Summary Plan Description (SPD) or similar plan document] may differ significantly from the standard benefit plans upon which these Coverage Policies are based. For example, a customer’s benefit plan document may contain a specific exclusion related to a topic addressed in a Coverage Policy. In the event of a conflict, a customer’s benefit plan document always supersedes the information in the Coverage Policies. In the absence of a controlling federal or state coverage mandate, benefits are ultimately determined by the terms of the applicable benefit plan document. Coverage determinations in each specific instance require consideration of 1) the terms of the applicable benefit plan document in effect on the date of service; 2) any applicable laws/regulations; 3) any relevant collateral source materials including Coverage Policies and; 4) the specific facts of the particular situation. Coverage Policies relate exclusively to the administration of health benefit plans. Coverage Policies are not recommendations for treatment and should never be used as treatment guidelines. In certain markets, delegated vendor guidelines may be used to support medical necessity and other coverage determinations.

Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS) Use only the intravenous route for treatment of CRS. The recommended dose of Actemra for treatment of CRS given as a 60-minute intravenous infusion is: Recommended Intravenous CRS Dosage Patients less than 30 kg weight 12 mg per kg Patients at or above 30 kg weight 8 mg per kg Alone or in combination with

• If no clinical improvement in the signs and symptoms of CRS occurs after the first dose, up to 3 additional doses of Actemra may be administered. The interval between consecutive doses should be at least 8 hours. • Doses exceeding 800 mg per infusion are not recommended in CRS patients. • Subcutaneous administration is not approved for CRS

General Considerations for Administration • Actemra has not been studied in combination with biological DMARDs such as TNF antagonists, IL-1R antagonists, anti-CD20 monoclonal and selective co-stimulation modulators because of the possibility of increased and increased risk of . Avoid using Actemra with biological DMARDs. • It is recommended that Actemra not be initiated in patients with an absolute neutrophil count (ANC) below 2000 per mm3, platelet count below 100,000 per mm3, or who have ALT or AST above 1.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN). o Patients with severe or life-threatening CRS frequently have cytopenias or elevated ALT or AST due to the lymphodepleting or the CRS. The decision to administer Actemra should take into account the potential benefit of treating the CRS versus the risks of short-term treatment with Actemra.

General Background

Pharmacology Targeting IL-6 is a therapeutic option for treatment of chronic inflammatory diseases such as RA. (Schoels, 2013) IL-6 has been shown to be involved in diverse physiological processes and is also produced by synovial and endothelial cells leading to local production of IL-6 in joints affected by inflammatory processes such as RA. Actemra is an IL-6 receptor monoclonal that binds to soluble and membrane-bound IL-6 receptors and has been shown to inhibit IL-6-mediated signaling through these receptors.1 In CRS (reported in 79% to 94% of patients receiving CAR T therapy), there are high levels of IL-6; therefore, IL-6 signaling is inhibited with Actemra IV. (Actemra Prescribing Information, 2018, Yescarta Prescribing Information, 2017, Kymriah Prescribing Information, 2017, Lee, 2014, NCCN/ASCO, 2019)

Professional Societies/Organizations NCCN and American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) NCCN has guidelines in partnership with the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) [version 1.2019 – November 14, 2018] for Management of -Related Toxicities. (NCCN/ASCO, 2019) In regard to CAR-T-cell-related toxicities, prompt and urgent attention is required to prevent progression. All patients with Grade 2, 3, and 4 are recommended for treatment with Actemra. In patients with Grade 1 CRS, Actemra is also listed as a therapeutic option for prolonged CRS in patients with significant symptoms and/or comorbidities. For inhibitor-related toxicities, or Actemra may be considered for refractory or severe arthritis not responding to steroids and anti-inflammatory agents.

American College of

Page 5 of 8 Drug and Biologic Coverage Policy: M0004 The 2011 ACR recommendations for the treatment of JIA (published prior to the approval of Actemra IV for PJIA) propose initial DMARD treatment with MTX in most patients; however, sulfasalazine is recommended for patients with enthesitis-related arthritis and may also be used in certain patients with sacroiliac arthritis. (Beukelman, 2011)

Updated guidelines from the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) for treatment of SJIA (2013) mention Actemra as a second- or third-line agent in patients with active systemic features and varying degrees of synovitis and in patients without active systemic features and varying degrees of synovitis; NSAIDs, systemic glucocorticoids, Kineret, TNFis, and MTX are among other treatment options. (Ringold, 2013)

Guidelines from the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) [2015] have TNF inhibitors and non-TNF biologics (such as Actemra) equally positioned as a recommended therapy following a trial of a conventional synthetic DMARD (e.g., MTX, leflunomide, hydroxychloroquine, sulfasalazine). (Ito, 2004)

® The American Board of Internal Medicine’s (ABIM) Foundation Choosing Wisely Initiative: The American College of Rheumatology Choosing Wisely® (2013) recommends a 3 month trial of methotrexate (or another conventional non-biologic DMARD) unless contraindicated or other exceptions (e.g., high disease activity and poor prognostic features) before initiating biologic therapy for rheumatoid arthritis.

Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services - National Coverage Determinations (NCDs) There are no CMS National Coverage Determinations for tocilizumab intravenous.

Other Uses with Supportive Evidence Still’s disease presents in adults with features similar to those of SJIA.11 Actemra IV has been effective in reducing fever, symptoms, and markers of in patients who were refractory to treatment with prednisone, MTX, Kineret, and/or a TNF antagonist.11-20 Prospective, randomized, controlled trials are needed.

Other Uses without Supportive Evidence There is insufficient evidence in the peer-reviewed published scientific literature to support safety and efficacy of tocilizumab in .

Concurrent Use with a Biologic or with a Targeted Synthetic DMARD. Data are lacking evaluating concomitant use of Actemra IV another biologic or with a targeted synthetic DMARD used for an inflammatory condition. Combination therapy is generally not recommended due to a higher rate of AEs with combinations and lack of data supportive of additional efficacy. (Furst, 2012, Xeljanz Prescribing Information, 2017) Note: This does NOT exclude the use of conventional synthetic DMARDs (e.g., MTX, leflunomide, hydroxychloroquine, and sulfasalazine) in combination with Actemra IV.

Crohn’s Disease In a 12-week pilot study conducted in Japan, 36 adults with active Crohn’s disease (Crohn’s Disease Activity Index [CDAI] ≥ 150 and increased CRP) were randomized, in a double-blind fashion to Actemra 8 mg/kg IV every 2 weeks; or alternating infusions of Actemra 8 mg/kg IV every 4 weeks and (i.e., alternating with placebo every 2 weeks), or to placebo every 2 weeks. (Ito, 2004) At baseline the CDAI means ranged from 287 to 306. Patients had been treated with corticosteroids, mesalamine-type drugs, metronidazole, or elemental diet. Six patients in the placebo group, four patients on Actemra IV every 4 weeks and one patient on Actemra IV every 2 weeks dropped out. The mean reduction in the CDAI score in the Actemra 8 mg/kg IV every 2 week group was 88 points (from mean 306 to 218). Further studies are needed.
