Abaloparatide

12.1 Mechanism of Action Abaloparatide is a PTHrP(1-34) analog which acts as an agonist at the PTH1 receptor (PTH1R). This results in activation of the cAMP signaling pathway in target cells. Once-daily administration of abaloparatide stimulates new bone formation on trabecular and cortical bone surfaces by stimulation of osteoblastic activity. In rats and monkeys, abaloparatide had an anabolic effect on bone, demonstrated by increases in BMD and bone mineral content (BMC) that correlated with increases in bone strength at vertebral and/or nonvertebral sites [see Nonclinical Toxicology ( 13.2 )] .

1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE TYMLOS is a human parathyroid hormone related peptide [PTHrP(1-34)] analog indicated for the: Treatment of postmenopausal women with osteoporosis at high risk for fracture or patients who have failed or are intolerant to other available osteoporosis therapy. ( 1.1 ) Treatment to increase bone density in men with osteoporosis at high risk for fracture or patients who have failed or are intolerant to other available osteoporosis therapy. ( 1.2 ) 1.1 Treatment of Postmenopausal Women with Osteoporosis at High Risk for Fracture TYMLOS is indicated for the treatment of postmenopausal women with osteoporosis at high risk for fracture (defined as a history of osteoporotic fracture or multiple risk factors for fracture), or patients who have failed or are intolerant to other available osteoporosis therapy. In postmenopausal women with osteoporosis, TYMLOS reduces the risk of vertebral fractures and nonvertebral fractures. 1.2 Treatment to Increase Bone Density in Men with Osteoporosis at High Risk for Fracture TYMLOS is indicated to increase bone density in men with osteoporosis at high risk for fracture (defined as a history of osteoporotic fracture or multiple risk factors for fracture), or patients who have failed or are intolerant to other available osteoporosis therapy.

2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION Recommended dosage is 80 mcg subcutaneously once daily; patients should receive supplemental calcium and vitamin D if dietary intake is inadequate. ( 2.1 ) Administer as a subcutaneous injection into periumbilical region of abdomen. ( 2.2 ) Administer initially where the patient can sit or lie down in case symptoms of orthostatic hypotension occur. ( 2.2 , 5.2 ) 2.1 Recommended Dosage The recommended dosage of TYMLOS is 80 mcg administered subcutaneously once daily. Patients should receive supplemental calcium and vitamin D if dietary intake is inadequate. 2.2 Administration Instructions Administer TYMLOS as a subcutaneous injection into the periumbilical region of the abdomen. Rotate the site of the injection every day and administer at approximately the same time every day. Do not administer intravenously or intramuscularly. Administer the first several doses where the patient can sit or lie down if necessary, in case symptoms of orthostatic hypotension occur [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 ) and Adverse Reactions ( 6.1 )] . Visually inspect TYMLOS for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration. TYMLOS is a clear and colorless solution. Do not use if solid particles appear or if the solution is cloudy or colored. Provide appropriate training and instruction to patients and caregivers on the proper use of the TYMLOS pen. 2.3 Treatment Duration The safety and efficacy of TYMLOS have not been evaluated beyond 2 years of treatment. Use of the drug for more than 2 years during a patient's lifetime is not recommended.

6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following adverse reactions are described in greater detail in other sections: Orthostatic Hypotension [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 )] Hypercalcemia [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.3 )] Hypercalciuria and Urolithiasis [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.4 )] Osteoporosis in postmenopausal women: The most common adverse reactions (incidence ≥2%) are hypercalciuria, dizziness, nausea, headache, palpitations, fatigue, upper abdominal pain, and vertigo. ( 6.1 ) Osteoporosis in men: The most common adverse reactions (incidence ≥2%) are injection site erythema, dizziness, arthralgia, injection site swelling, injection site pain, contusion, nausea, diarrhea, abdominal distension, abdominal pain, and bone pain.

Adverse Reactions from Clinical Trial in Postmenopausal Women with Osteoporosis The safety of TYMLOS was evaluated in a randomized, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis aged 49 to 86 years (mean age 69 years) who were randomized to receive 80 mcg of TYMLOS (N = 824) or placebo (N = 821), given subcutaneously once daily for 18 months [see Clinical Studies ( 14.1 )] . In this study, the incidence of all-cause mortality was 0.4% in the TYMLOS group and 0.6% in the placebo group. The incidence of serious adverse events was 10% in the TYMLOS group and 11% in the placebo group. The percentage of patients who discontinued study drug due to adverse events was 10% in the TYMLOS group and 6% in the placebo group. The most common adverse reactions leading to study drug discontinuation in the TYMLOS group were nausea (2%), dizziness (1%), headache (1%), and palpitations (1%). Table 1 shows the most common adverse reactions in the trial. These adverse reactions were generally not present at baseline, occurred more commonly with TYMLOS than with placebo, and occurred in at least 2% of the patients treated with TYMLOS.

At later time points the incidence was generally similar between the treatment groups. Adverse reactions of orthostatic hypotension were reported in 1% of patients receiving TYMLOS and 0.5% of patients receiving placebo. Dizziness was reported by more TYMLOS-treated patients (10%) compared to placebo (6%) [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 )] . Tachycardia In women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, adverse reactions of tachycardia, including sinus tachycardia, were reported in 2% of patients receiving TYMLOS and 1% of patients in the placebo group. In 5 of the 13 patients receiving TYMLOS who experienced tachycardia, symptoms occurred within 1 hour of administration. TYMLOS has been associated with a dose-dependent increase in heart rate which developed within 15 minutes after injection and resolved in about 6 hours [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.2 )] . Injection Site Reactions During the first month of the trial, injection site reactions were assessed daily one-hour after injection. TYMLOS had a higher incidence than placebo of injection site redness (58% vs. 28%), edema (11% vs. 3%), and pain (10% vs. 7%). Severe redness, severe edema, and severe pain were reported among 2.9%, 0.4%, and 0.4% of the TYMLOS-treated patients. Laboratory Abnormalities Hypercalcemia In the clinical trial of women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, TYMLOS caused increases in serum calcium concentrations [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.3 )] . The incidence of hypercalcemia, defined as albumin-corrected serum calcium ≥10.7 mg/dL at 4 hours following injection at any visit, was 3% in TYMLOS-treated patients and 0.1% with placebo. Pre-dose serum calcium was similar to baseline in both groups. There were 2 (0.2%) TYMLOS-treated patients and no placebo-treated patients who discontinued from the study due to hypercalcemia. The incidence of hypercalcemia with TYMLOS was higher in patients with mild or moderate renal impairment (4%) compared to patients with normal renal function (1%). Increases in Serum Uric Aci
