USP 800 Exceptions for Antineoplastics

Does anyone have any USP 800 practice exceptions surrounding the use of methotrexate in ectopic pregnancy that allows its use for this indication outside of a sterile compounding containment environment? e.g., assessment of risk (AoR) that delineates appropriate storage, handling, disposal that would allow the frontline nursing staff to draw up and administer these onetime intramuscular doses.

Thank you!
