What is the most important information I should know about YESCARTA?

YESCARTA may cause side effects that are life-threatening and can lead to death. Call or see your healthcare provider or get emergency help right away if you get any of the following:

• Fever (100.4°F/38°C or higher)
• Difficulty breathing
• Chills or shaking chills
• Confusion
• Dizziness or lightheadedness

It is important to tell your healthcare provider that you received YESCARTA and to show them your YESCARTA Patient Wallet Card. Your healthcare provider may give you other medicines to treat your side effects.

Before getting YESCARTA, tell your healthcare provider about all your medical problems, including if you have or have had:

• Neurologic problems (such as seizures, stroke, or memory loss)
• Lung or breathing problems
• Heart problems
• Liver problems
• Kidney problems
• A recent or active infection

Tell your healthcare provider about all the medications you take, including prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements.

How will I receive YESCARTA?

• Since YESCARTA is made from your own white blood cells, your blood will be collected by a process called “leukapheresis” (loo-kah-fur-ee-sis), which will concentrate your white blood cells.
• Your blood cells will be sent to a manufacturing center to make your YESCARTA.
• Before you get YESCARTA, you will get 3 days of chemotherapy to prepare your body.
• When your YESCARTA is ready, your healthcare provider will give it to you through a catheter placed into your vein (intravenous infusion). The infusion usually takes less than 30 minutes.
• You will be monitored where you received your treatment daily for at least 7 days after the infusion.
• You should plan to stay close to the location where you received your treatment for at least 4 weeks after getting YESCARTA. Your healthcare provider will help you with any side effects that may occur.
• You may be hospitalized for side effects and your healthcare provider will discharge you if your side effects are under control, and it is safe for you to leave the hospital.
• Your healthcare provider will want to do blood tests to follow your progress. It is important that you do have your blood tested. If you miss an appointment, call your healthcare provider as soon as possible to reschedule.

What should I avoid after receiving YESCARTA?

• Do not drive, operate heavy machinery, or do other dangerous things for 8 weeks after you get YESCARTA because the treatment can cause sleepiness, confusion, weakness, temporary memory and coordination problems.
• Do not donate blood, organs, tissues, and cells for transplantation.

INDICATION

YESCARTA is a treatment for your non-Hodgkin lymphoma. It is used when you have failed at least two other kinds of treatment. YESCARTA is different than other cancer medicines because it is made from your own white blood cells, which have been modified to recognize and attack your lymphoma cells.

Limitation of Use: YESCARTA is not indicated for the treatment of patients with primary central nervous system lymphoma.
