Common (<2%) – pain at the injection site, vasodilation, paresthesia Uncommon (≥0.1% to <1%) – asthenia, back pain, injection site reactions, chest pain, nausea, vomiting, headache, taste changes, itching, rash, inflammatory response (localized redness and swelling) with intradermal injection. Rare (≥0.01% to <0.1%) - Hypersensitivity and anaphylaxis, hypertension, phlebitis, hyperesthesia, anxiety, dizziness, convulsion, parosmia, dyspnea, increased cough, rhinitis, eczema, urticaria.
7 DRUG INTERACTIONS No interactions with other medications have been observed. Formal drug interaction studies have not been carried out. 8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS Intravenously delivered carboxydextran-coated superparamagnetic iron oxide showed no effects on fertility and general reproductive performance of male and female rats and was non-teratogenic in rats and rabbits. Some reproductive toxicity was seen at doses far beyond the recommended dose. The potential risk for humans is unknown. 8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary There are no available clinical data to establish whether or not Magtrace
TM
poses a risk to pregnancy outcomes.
In animal reproductive studies in rats and rabbits no evidence of prenatal toxicity was found at daily intravenous doses of 0.01 and 0.03 mmol Fe/kg/day (rats) or 0.01, 0.03, 0.1 and 0.4 mmol Fe/kg/day (rabbits). At the maximum dose of 0.5 mmol Fe/kg/day in the rat study and at 0.8 mmol Fe/kg/day in the rabbit study, evidence of toxicity in pregnant females was accompanied by a slightly increased post-implantational/prenatal loss (rats) or increased values of death/resorption rates with a lower number of living foetuses (rabbits). 8.2 Lactation Risk Summary There are no available clinical data to establish whether or not Magtrace
TM
poses a risk during lactation.
When delivered intravenously, no transfer of carboxydextran-coated superparamagnetic iron oxide or metabolized iron into breast milk was observed in lactating rats, within 24 h. It is not known if Magtrace TM excreted into breast milk in humans. Magtrace should only be given during lactation after special consideration. 8.3 Females and Males of Reproductive Potential Infertility Females In animal studies when a similar material to that used in Magtrace

11 DESCRIPTION TM
Magtrace , a magnetic tracer, contains carboxydextran-coated superparamagnetic iron oxide. The iron oxide is in the form of maghaemiteγ-Fe2O3, and the chemical formula of the carboxydextran is C6H11O6(C6H10O5)n-C6H11O5. TM
Magtrace is an aqueous suspension of carboxydextran-coated superparamagnetic iron oxide formulated with 0.3% (w/v) sodium chloride. It is a black to reddish-brown liquid, supplied in single-use vials, for a 2ml TM injection, with each milliliter of Magtrace contains ~28 milligrams of iron and ~32 mg of carboxydextran. 12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY 12.1 Mechanism of Action TM
Magtrace consists of superparamagnetic iron oxide coated with a carboxydextran shell. The particles are sized for uptake into the lymphatics along with normal lymph flow draining from the injection site tissue. The ® TM particles are physically filtered in the draining lymph nodes where they accumulate, allowing them to be magnetically detected by the Sentimag system. When the Magtrace material is exposed to the excitation ® TM field of the Sentimag the Magtrace material responds with a temporarily induced magnetic field. 12.2 Pharmacodynamics Magtrace

has been detectable in lymph nodes within 20 minutes after injection.
Studies in mice and pigs show that Magtrace
TM
transits from the site of injection to the draining lymph nodes within 10 minutes of administration.
13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY 13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility Carcinogenesis TM
No animal studies for Carcinogenesis were conducted for Magtrace . Mutagenesis TM
No animal studies for mutagenesis were conducted for Magtrace . Impairment of Fertility TM
No animal studies for impairment of fertility were conducted for Magtrace . In silico studies for the carboxydextran indicate no carcinogenicity. 13.2 Animal Toxicology and/or Pharmacology Magtrace
TM
has been tested for intracutaneous sensitization according to the requirements of ISO 10993-1:2009 based on the specified site of injection and duration. These studies revealed no sensitization.
In animal studies when carboxydextran-coated superparamagnetic iron oxide has been injected intravenously the data suggested no special hazard for humans based on conventional studies of safety pharmacology, repeated dose toxicity and genotoxicity. Intravenously administered carboxydextran-coated superparamagnetic iron oxide showed no effects on fertility and general reproductive performance of male and female rats and was non-teratogenic in rats and rabbits. Only at high multiples of the diagnostic dose given daily over the period of organogenesis, carboxydextran-coated superparamagnetic iron oxide caused post-implantation and prenatal losses and delays in development of pups in rats (at 0.5mmol Fe/kg/day representing about 50 times the diagnostic dose) and increased resorption rate and reduced the number of live fetuses in rabbits (at 0.8mmol Fe/kg/day representing about 80 times the diagnostic dose.)
No evidence of a sensitizing (contact-allergenic) potential was seen using the maximization test in guinea-pigs. It has been observed that intravenously delivered carboxydextran-coated superparamagnetic iron oxide induces anaphylactic (hypersensitivity) reactions in dextran-sensitized dogs. 14 CLINICAL STUDIES 14.1 Overview of Clinical Studies TM
The safety and effectiveness of Magtrace
was assessed in two paired comparison clinical trials. TM
®
Study 1 was a pivotal, open-label, multicenter paired comparison of the Magtrace (carboxydextran-coated superparamagnetic iron oxide) and Sentimag Magnetic Localization System and the combined radioisotope and blue dye for sentinel lymph node detection in patients with breast cancer or ductal carcinoma in-situ (DCIS) scheduled for sentinel node biopsy. Radioisotope (Technetium sulfur colloid) was injected TM according to the standard of care protocol at each site, and blue dye was injected shortly prior to surgery according to the site protocol. Magtrace was injected at least 20 minutes prior to initiating sentinel lymph node mapping. ®
Lymph node detection was performed intraoperatively using the Sentimag probe to identify magnetic nodes, followed by the use of a handheld gamma probe to identify radioactive ('hot') nodes. Any blue or black/brown stained nodes, and any nodes judged to be highly clinically suspicious by the surgeon were also excised. The excised nodes were evaluated using histopathology. The detection rate in confirmed lymph nodes for the magnetic technique and the standard of care technique was determined. In Study 1, 147 female patients underwent sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB). The median age was 61 years. ®
Study 2 was an open-label, multicenter, paired comparison of Sentimag and Sienna+ (carboxydextran-coated superparamagnetic iron oxide) and radioisotope with or without blue dye for sentinel lymph node detection in patients with breast cancer scheduled for sentinel node biopsy. Sienna+ is an earlier formulation of carboxydextran-coated superparamagnetic iron oxide requiring dilution with saline prior to injection. Radioisotope (Technetium albumin colloid) was injected according to the standard of care protocol at each site. 45/108 (42%) of patients also received a blue dye injection shortly prior to surgery at sites where blue dye was standard protocol. Sienna+ was injected at least 20 minutes prior to initiating sentinel lymph node mapping. ®
Lymph node detection was performed intraoperatively using the Sentimag probe to identify magnetic nodes, followed by the use of a handheld gamma probe to identify radioactive ('hot') nodes. Any blue or black/brown stained nodes, and any nodes judged to be highly clinically suspicious by the surgeon were also excised. The excised nodes were evaluated using histopathology. In Study 2, 108 female patients underwent SLNB. The median age was 58 years. 14.2 Sentinel lymph node detection In Studies 1 and 2 efficacy analyses were based on the nodal detection rate per patient and per node. Table 1 shows the per patient detection rates for the magnetic technique and the standard of care control TM techniques, and Table 2 shows the per node detection rates. Additional analyses were conducted to evaluate the presence or absence of Magtrace in nodes excised from patients determined by pathologic staging TM to have cancer spread to at least one lymph node. In Study 1 Magtrace identified 21/22 node positive breast cancer patients and in Study 2, Sienna+ identified 45/46 node positive breast cancer patients. TM

19. SUMMARY OF SAFETY AND EFFECTIVENESS DATA (SSED) I.
SUMMARY OF PRIMARY CLINICAL STUDIES TM
®
The applicant performed a clinical study to establish a reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness of the Magtrace and Sentimag Magnetic Localization System for localizing lymph nodes draining a tumor site in patients with breast cancer, as part of a sentinel lymph node biopsy procedure in the US (IDE #G140208, NCT02336737). An additional supporting study was conducted in France (NCT01790399) which was an open-label, multicenter, paired comparison of Sentimag and Sienna+ and radioisotope with or without blue dye for sentinel TM lymph node detection in patients with breast cancer scheduled for sentinel node biopsy. Sienna+ is an earlier formulation of Magtrace requiring dilution with saline prior to injection. Note: The French Sentimag Feasibliity Trial is discussed in the Summary of Supplemental Clinical Information section (Section III) because it was only supporting clinical data.

A. Study Design Patients were treated between 9 January 2015 and 16 December 2015. The database for this PMA reflected data collected through 16 December 2015 and included 160 patients. There were 6 investigational sites in the United States. TM
®
The study was a pivotal prospective open label multicenter, paired comparison study of The Magtrace and Sentimag Magnetic Localization System with the standard of care (Tc-99m radioisotope with blue dye) for the detection of lymph nodes in patients with breast cancer undergoing a sentinel lymph node biopsy (G140208). The trial was designed to provide powered evidence that the lymph node detection rate of The TM ® Magtrace and Sentimag Magnetic Localization System is non-inferior to the standard of care in patients with breast cancer and to summarize measures of product safety and performance. The active control was Technetium 99 labelled sulfur colloid radioisotope in combination with isosulfan blue dye. The control was administered according to the standard of care at each site. All subjects underwent TM simultaneous lymph node mapping using Magtrace , and with radioisotope with blue dye. TM
The trial sought to reject a null hypothesis that the true per lymph node detection rate for Magtrace was worse than or equal to the true lymph node detection rate for standard of care by more than the non-inferiority TM margin δ, and support the alternative hypothesis that the true lymph node detection rate of Magtrace was no worse than the true lymph node detection rate for standard of care less the non-inferiority margin δ, i.e., H0: PT – PC ≤ –δ (inferior) Ha: PT – PC > –δ (non-inferior), where PT and PC are the lymph node detection rates for Magtrace
TM
and standard of care Control, respectively, and δ is the non-inferiority margin.
The sample size calculation for the primary endpoint was performed using PASS 2008 and was based on a non-inferiority (one-sided) test of correlated proportions and the method of Nam with the following assumptions:
TM
®
Expected Magtrace /Sentimag (test) rate = 95%
Expected standard of care (Control) rate = 95% Non-inferiority margin (δ) = 5% Assumed discordance rate = 8% Test significance level (α) = 0.05 (1-sided) Power (1-β) ≈ 0.85
A minimum of 265 nodes were required for each method. Given that ~2 lymph nodes were expected per subject, it was anticipated that a total of 140 subjects would be required. The expected per node detection rate for the standard of care combined technique was 94.6% based on the NSABP B-32 trial (Krag et al., Sentinel-lymph-node resection compared with conventional axillary-lymphnode dissection in clinically node-negative patients with breast cancer: overall survival findings from the NSABP B-32 randomised phase 3 trial., Lancet Oncol. 2010 Oct;11(10):927-33.). 1.

Each SLN identified by Sentimag and/or gamma probe or stained blue or black was excised and additional counts, with the excised node on the end of the probe, were taken with each detection system (Sentimag and gamma probe) and recorded. In addition, nodes that were deemed highly clinically suspicious nodes (e.g. very hard and firm, or, white colored consistent with gross tumor in the lymph node) were excised as sentinel nodes. Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) was stopped when the residual count/signal in the axilla was less than 10% of the largest ex-vivo reading from an already excised node using that detection method. All patients were scheduled to return for follow-up examinations at between 6 and 22 days post-procedure for a safety assessment postoperatively.

and Sentimag Magnetic Localization System as indicated by adverse events and serious adverse events and their relatedness to the detection method or
Primary Effectiveness Endpoint: TM
®
The primary effectiveness endpoint was the lymph node detection rate, which is defined as the number of lymph nodes identified by a specific method (Magtrace /Sentimag or Control) divided by the total number of lymph nodes detected. Success/Failure Criteria: TM
®
The study was considered a success if the Magtrace and Sentimag Magnetic Localization System demonstrated a statistically significantly non-inferior lymph node detection rate compared to the Control, with a 5% non-inferiority margin. If the lower bound of the one-sided 95% confidence interval for the difference between detection rates at the nodal level was greater than -5%, then the study was considered a success. B.
Accountability of PMA Cohort
At the time of database lock, of 160 patients enrolled in the PMA study, 147 patients completed the study and are available for analysis. Patient accountability is shown in Figure 4. Thirteen patients withdrew from the study prior to sentinel lymph node biopsy procedure as follows: 5 patients withdrew themselves, and 8 patients were withdrawn by investigators for the following reasons:
2 received the incorrect isotope injection (Lymphoseek (technetium Tc 99m tilmanocept) instead of Tc-99m sulfur colloid) 2 were found not to meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria 1 was withdrawn due to concerns regarding her history of thalassemia 1 was found to have axillary metastasis on a PET scan 1 was withdrawn as there was no study coordinator on site to record the study data 1 patient opted for chemotherapy prior to surgery
The primary analysis set was the modified intent to treat (mITT) cohort comprising all subjects who completed the study procedures (n=147). Figure 2: Sentimag IC trial patient accountability tree

Safety Results
The analysis of safety was based on the cohort of 147 evaluable patients. The key safety outcomes for this study are presented below. Adverse effects are reported in Tables 5 and 6. Adverse events that occurred in the PMA clinical study: A total of 69 adverse events were reported in 56/147 (38.1%) subjects, and of these adverse events, 9 (13.0%) were considered serious (SAE). The most common adverse events were breast discoloration / hyperpigmentation, which occurred in 16.3% (24/147) of subjects and ecchymosis / bruising, which occurred in 6.8% (10/147) of subjects.

Table 6 shows Magtrace -related adverse events. If an adverse event was assessed as having an “undetermined” relationship, it was conservatively considered “related”. TM
TM
Twenty (20) events occurring in 20 subjects (13.6%) were related to Magtrace , and 6 events occurring in 6 subjects (4.1%) were assessed as having an undetermined relatedness in relation to Magtrace . There TM were 9 serious adverse events in the study. After data analysis, 7 out of the 9 SAEs were unrelated to the Magtrace , and 2 of the 9 SAEs were found to be undetermined ( Bradycardia and Anaphylaxis). TM

Effectiveness Results
The analysis of effectiveness was based on the 147 evaluable patients who completed the study. Key effectiveness outcomes are presented in Tables 7 to Table 13. Primary Endpoint Analysis The primary endpoint was the lymph node detection rate, which is defined as the number of lymph nodes identified by a specific method (Magtrace or Control) divided by the total number of lymph nodes detected TM ® (n=369). The Magtrace and Sentimag Magnetic Localization System had a detection rate 94.3% and the control detected 93.5% of the total nodes detected. The difference in detection rates between the methods TM (Magtrace - Control) was 0.8% with a 95% one-sided lower confidence bound of -2.1%.

Subgroup Analysis
Per node endpoints for cancer positive (malignant) nodes The nodal status was reported as the percentage of histologically malignant nodes detected by a specific detection method (magnetic; combined radioisotope and blue dye; radioisotope alone; blue dye alone) on a per node and a per subject basis. TM
Of the 25 confirmed analyzable positive (malignant) nodes in the mITT analysis set, 96.0% (24/25) with a 95% CI of (88.3%, 100.0%) were identified by both the Control radioisotope or blue dye, and Magtrace . TM TM One (1) node was not identified by either Control or Magtrace , but was considered 'highly clinically suspicious' in the judgment of the investigator. All the nodes identified by either Magtrace or Control were TM identified by both Magtrace and Control. Blue dye detected 60.0% (15/25). TM
TM
Of the 24 malignant nodes identified by both Magtrace and Control, 19 contained macrometastasis, and 5 contained micrometastasis. The one node that was not identified by either Control or Magtrace considered clinically suspicious contained a macrometastasis.
