WHAT ZENAPAX IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Daclizumab belongs to a group of medicines called immunosuppressants.
These medicines help to
suppress your body’s natural response to reject your transplanted
organ.
Daclizumab is a humanised monoclonal antibody produced in a murine NSO
myeloma cell line using
a glutamine synthetase (GS) expression system (NS_GSO) by recombinant
DNA technology.
Monoclonal antibodies are proteins which recognise and bind to other
unique proteins in the body
called antigens. Daclizumab binds to an antigen found on the surface
of specific white blood cells
called T lymphocytes. This activity suppresses the body’s natural
immune response which otherwise
might cause transplant rejection.
Zenapax is used to prevent your body from rejecting transplanted
kidneys. Zenapax is used together
with other immunosuppressive drugs, including cyclosporine and
corticosteroids.

CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1
THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Zenapax is indicated for the prophylaxis of acute organ rejection in
_de novo_ allogenic renal
transplantation and is to be used concomitantly with an
immunosuppressive regimen, including
cyclosporine and corticosteroids in patients who are not highly
immunised.
4.2
POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Zenapax should be prescribed only by physicians who are experienced in
the use of
immunosuppressive therapy following organ transplantation.
The recommended dose for Zenapax in adult and paediatric patients is 1
mg/kg. The volume of
Zenapax containing the appropriate dose is added to 50 ml of sterile
0.9% saline solution and is
administered intravenously over a 15 minute period. It may be given
via a peripheral or central vein.
Zenapax should initially be given within 24 hours before
transplantation. The next and each
subsequent dose should be given at intervals of fourteen days, for a
total of five doses.
Elderly
Experience with Zenapax in elderly patients (older than 65 years) is
limited because of the small
number of older patients who undergo renal transplantation, but there
is no evidence that elderly
patients require a different dosage from younger patients.
Patients with severe renal impairment
No dosage adjustment is necessary for
