Motixafortide, sold under the brand name Aphexda, is a medication used for the treatment of multiple myeloma.[1] Motixafortide is a hematopoietic stem cell mobilizer and a CXCR4 antagonist.[1] It is given by subcutaneous injection.[1]
The most common side effects include injection site reactions, pruritus, flushing, and back pain.[3]
Motixafortide was approved for medical use in the United States in September 2023.[3][4][5]
Medical uses[edit]
Motixafortide is indicated, in combination with filgrastim, a granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF), to mobilize hematopoietic stem cells to the peripheral blood for collection and subsequent autologous transplantation in people with multiple myeloma.[1][3][4]
Adverse effects[edit]
Motixafortide can cause injection site reactions, anaphylactic shock, and hypersensitivity reactions.[3] Tumor cell mobilization in people with leukemia, leukocytosis, potential for tumor cell mobilization, and embryo-fetal toxicity can also be caused by motixafortide.[3]
History[edit]
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved motixafortide based on evidence from the GENESIS study, a double-blind, placebo-controlled study, in which 122 participants with multiple myeloma, due to undergo autologous transplantation, were randomized 2:1 to receive motixafortide 1.25 mg/kg with granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (N=80) or placebo with granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (N=42) for mobilization of hematopoietic stem cells for collection and apheresis.[3] This one trial evaluated the benefit and side effects of motixafortide in participants.[3] The trial was conducted at 21 sites in five countries including Italy, Hungary, Germany, Spain, and the United States.[3] There were 78 participants included in the trial from the United States, and 44 participants included from sites outside of the United States.[3] The GENESIS trial was used to assess efficacy and safety.[3]
