Lanadelumab

12.1 Mechanism of Action Lanadelumab-flyo is a fully human monoclonal antibody (IgG1/κ-light chain) that binds plasma kallikrein and inhibits its proteolytic activity. Plasma kallikrein is a protease that cleaves high-molecular-weight-kininogen (HMWK) to generate cleaved HMWK (cHMWK) and bradykinin, a potent vasodilator that increases vascular permeability resulting in swelling and pain associated with HAE. In patients with HAE due to C1-inhibitor (C1-INH) deficiency or dysfunction, normal regulation of plasma kallikrein activity is not present, which leads to uncontrolled increases in plasma kallikrein activity and results in angioedema attacks. Lanadelumab-flyo decreases plasma kallikrein activity to control excess bradykinin generation in patients with HAE.

TAKHZYRO is intended for administration by a healthcare provider, patient or caregiver. The patient or caregiver should be trained in subcutaneous injection technique by a healthcare professional. Adult and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older: TAKHZYRO may be administered by the patient or caregiver. Pediatric patients 2 to less than 12 years of age: TAKHZYRO should be administered by a healthcare provider or caregiver. Parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration, whenever solution and container permit. Do not use TAKHZYRO if the solution appears discolored or contains visible particles. TAKHZYRO is a clear to slightly opalescent, colorless to slightly yellow solution. Administration Instructions for Single-Dose Prefilled Syringes Instruct patients and/or caregiver on proper use of the TAKHZYRO prefilled syringe and assess that they are well trained in subcutaneous injection technique prior to administration by patient and/or caregiver. Avoid vigorous agitation of the prefilled syringe. Take the TAKHZYRO prefilled syringe out of the refrigerator 15 minutes before injecting to allow it to equilibrate to room temperature. Using aseptic technique, inject TAKHZYRO subcutaneously into the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm. Discard any unused portion of drug remaining in the prefilled syringe. For detailed instructions on the preparation and administration of TAKHZYRO see Instructions for Use for either single-dose 1 mL prefilled syringe or single-dose 2 mL prefilled syringe. Administration Instructions for Single-Dose Vial TAKHZYRO vial is provided as a ready-to-use solution that does not require additional reconstitution or dilution for administration. Instruct patients and/or caregivers on proper use of TAKHZYRO from a vial and assess that they are well trained in subcutaneous injection technique prior to administration by patient and/or caregiver. Avoid vigorous agitation of the vial. Take the TAKHZYRO vial out of the refrigerator 15 minutes before injecting to allow it to equilibrate to room temperature. Using aseptic technique, withdraw the prescribed dose of TAKHZYRO from the vial using an 18-gauge needle. Change the needle on the syringe to a 27-gauge, ½-inch needle or other needle suitable for subcutaneous injection. Inject TAKHZYRO subcutaneously into the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm. In clinical studies, the majority of patients self-administered TAKHZYRO over 10 to 60 seconds. TAKHZYRO should be administered within 2 hours of preparing the dosing syringe. After the dosing syringe is prepared, it can be refrigerated at 36°F to 46°F (2°C to 8°C) and must be used within 8 hours. Discard any unused portions of drug remaining in the vial and dosing syringe. For detailed instructions on the preparation and administration of TAKHZYRO see single-dose vial Instructions for Use .

6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The most common adverse reactions (≥10%) are injection site reactions, upper respiratory infections, headache, rash, dizziness, diarrhea, and myalgia.

Adult and Pediatric Patients 12 Years of Age and Older The safety of TAKHZYRO is primarily based on a 26-week, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group and placebo-controlled study (Trial 1) in 125 patients with Type I or II HAE. Eligible patients were also able to participate in an open-label extension study (Trial 2) up to 130 weeks. In Trial 1, a total of 84 patients with HAE aged 12 years and older received at least one dose of TAKHZYRO. Overall, 70% of patients were female and 90% of patients were Caucasian with a mean age of 41 years. The proportion of patients who discontinued study drug prematurely due to adverse events was 1.2% for TAKHZYRO-treated patients and 4.9% for placebo-treated patients. No deaths occurred in the trial. The safety profile of TAKHZYRO was generally similar across all subgroups of patients, including analysis by age, sex, and geographic region. Table 1 shows adverse reactions occurring in ≥10% of patients in any TAKHZYRO treatment group that also occurred at a higher rate than in the placebo treatment group in Trial 1. Table 1 Adverse Reactions Observed in ≥10% of Patients Treated with TAKHZYRO in Trial 1 Adverse Reaction Placebo (N=41) TAKHZYRO 150 mg q4wks (N=28) 300 mg q4wks (N=29) 300 mg q2wks (N=27) Total (N=84) n (%) n (%) n (%) n (%) n (%) N= number of patients; n =number of patients experiencing the event; q2wks = every 2 weeks; q4wks = every 4 weeks Injection site reactions Injection site reactions include: pain, erythema, bruising, hematoma, hemorrhage, pruritus, swelling, induration, paresthesia, reaction, warmth, edema and rash. 14 (34) 16 (57) 13 (45) 15 (56) 44 (52) Upper respiratory infection Includes upper respiratory infection, viral upper respiratory infection 13 (32) 3 (11) 9 (31) 12 (44) 24 (29) Headache Includes headache, tension headache, sinus headache 9 (22) 3 (11) 6 (21) 9 (33) 18 (21) Rash Includes rash, rash maculopapular, rash erythematous 2(5) 2 (7) 3 (10) 1 (4) 6 (7) Dizziness 0 1 (4) 3 (10) 1 (4) 5 (6) Diarrhea 2 (5) 3 (11) 0 1 (4) 4 (5) Myalgia 0 1 (4) 0 3 (11) 4 (5) Injection site reactions primarily consisted mainly of pain, erythema, and bruising at the injection site. There was no meaningful difference in injection site reactions with self-administration. Less Common Adverse Reactions Other adverse reactions that occurred at a higher incidence in TAKHZYRO-treated patients compared to placebo include hypersensitivity (1% vs 0%), increased aspartate transaminase (2% vs 0%), and increased alanine transaminase (2% vs 0%). Safety data from the open-label extension study, consisting of 109 rollover patients from Trial 1 and 103 non-rollover HAE patients, is consistent with controlled safety data from Trial 1. Laboratory Abnormalities Transaminase elevations During the placebo-controlled treatment period in Trial 1, the number of TAKHZYRO-treated patients with maximum transaminase (ALT or AST) levels >8, >5, or >3 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) was 1 (1.2%), 0 (0%), or 3 (3.6%) respectively, compared to 0 in the placebo-treated patients. These transaminase elevations were asymptomatic and transient. No patients had elevated total bilirubin >2× ULN. One TAKHZYRO-treated patient permanently discontinued treatment due to elevated transaminases (4.1× ULN AST). None of the patients were reported to have serious adverse reactions of elevated transaminases. Pediatric Patients 2 to Less Than 12 Years of Age The safety of TAKHZYRO was evaluated at 150 mg/mL (150 mg q4wks for patients 2 to <6 years or 150 mg q2wks with the option for 150 mg q4wks if the patient is well-controlled for 6 months for patients 6 to <12 years) in an open-label, multicenter study with 21 patients aged 2 to less than 12 years. No new safety signals were observed in these patients.

7 DRUG INTERACTIONS No dedicated drug interaction studies have been conducted [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]. No dedicated drug interaction studies have been conducted. ( 7 ) 7.1 Drug-Laboratory Test Interactions Coagulation tests TAKHZYRO can increase activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) due to an interaction of TAKHZYRO with the aPTT assay. The reagents used in the aPTT laboratory test initiate intrinsic coagulation through the activation of plasma kallikrein in the contact system. Inhibition of plasma kallikrein by TAKHZYRO can increase aPTT in this assay. In Trial 1, prolongation of aPTT (>1× ULN) was observed at one or more time points in 3, 9, and 11 patients treated with TAKHZYRO 150 mg q4wks, 300 mg q4wks, and 300 mg q2wks, respectively, compared to 5 placebo-treated patients. Only one patient in the 300 mg q2wks treatment group experienced transient aPTT prolongation ≥1.5x ULN which was confounded by ongoing heparin therapy. None of the increases in aPTT in patients treated with TAKHZYRO were associated with abnormal bleeding adverse events. There were no differences in INR values between treatment groups.
