About TAKHZYRO

What is this medication? TAKHZYRO is a prescription medicine used to prevent attacks of hereditary angioedema, also known as HAE, in adults and pediatric patients aged 2 years and older. HAE is a rare genetic disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of severe swelling that can affect the limbs, face, intestinal tract, and airway. By providing routine prophylaxis, this medication helps to reduce the frequency and severity of these swelling episodes over time.

The medication works as a monoclonal antibody that targets and inhibits the activity of plasma kallikrein, an enzyme that plays a key role in the biological process that leads to HAE symptoms. It is administered as a subcutaneous injection, which is a shot given just under the skin. It is important for patients to understand that TAKHZYRO is intended for long-term prevention only and is not meant to be used for the immediate treatment of an acute HAE attack.

Pediatric Patients 2 Years to Less Than 6 Years of Age The recommended dosage in pediatric patients 2 years to less than 6 years of age is 150 mg administered subcutaneously every 4 weeks (q4wks). 2.3 Preparation and Administration Instructions TAKHZYRO is administered subcutaneously only. 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 years 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 caregivers 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.

Warnings and precautions
5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Hypersensitivity reactions have been observed. In case of a severe hypersensitivity reaction, discontinue TAKHZYRO administration and institute appropriate treatment. ( 5.1 ) 5.1 Hypersensitivity Reactions Hypersensitivity reactions have been observed. In case of a severe hypersensitivity reaction, discontinue TAKHZYRO administration and institute appropriate treatment.
Drug interactions
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 every 4 weeks (q4wks), 300 mg every 4 weeks (q4wks), and 300 mg every 2 weeks (q2wks), respectively, compared to 5 placebo-treated patients. Only one patient in the 300 mg every 2 weeks (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.
Adverse reactions
6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The most common adverse reactions (≥10%) are injection site reactions, upper respiratory infections, headache, rash, dizziness, diarrhea, and myalgia. ( 6.1 ) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Takeda Pharmaceuticals at 1-877-TAKEDA-7 (1-877-825-3327) or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch . 6.1 Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice. 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) n (%) TAKHZYRO 150 mg q4wks (N=28) n (%) TAKHZYRO 300 mg q4wks (N=29) n (%) TAKHZYRO 300 mg q2wks (N=27) n (%) TAKHZYRO Total (N=84) 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 Years to Less Than 12 Years of Age The safety of TAKHZYRO was evaluated at 150 mg/mL (150 mg every 4 weeks (q4wks) for patients 2 years to <6 years or 150 mg every 2 weeks (q2wks) with the option for 150 mg every 4 weeks (q4wks) if the patient is well-controlled for more than 6 months for patients 6 years to <12 years) in an open-label, multicenter study with 21 patients aged 2 years to less than 12 years. No new safety signals were observed in these patients. 6.2 Postmarketing Experience The following adverse reaction has been identified during post-approval use of TAKHZYRO. Because this reaction is reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate its frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure. General Disorders and Administration Site Conditions : Injection site urticaria
Use in pregnancy
8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary There are no available data on TAKHZYRO use in pregnant women to inform any drug associated risks. Monoclonal antibodies such as lanadelumab-flyo are transported across the placenta during the third trimester of pregnancy; therefore, potential effects on a fetus are likely to be greater during the third trimester of pregnancy. An enhanced pre- and postnatal development (ePPND) study conducted in pregnant monkeys at doses resulting in exposures of up to 33 times the exposure achieved (on an AUC basis) at the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) revealed no evidence of harm to the developing fetus. The background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2 to 4% and 15 to 20%, respectively. Data Animal Data In the ePPND study, pregnant cynomolgus monkeys were administered lanadelumab-flyo once weekly at subcutaneous doses resulting in up to 33 times the exposure at the MRHD (on an AUC basis with maternal subcutaneous doses up to 50 mg/kg/week) from gestation day 20, at the beginning of organogenesis, through to parturition. There were no lanadelumab-flyo-related effects on maintenance of pregnancy or parturition. Maternal lanadelumab-flyo treatment had no effects on embryo-fetal development, survival, growth, or postnatal development of offspring through 3 months of age. Lanadelumab-flyo crossed the placenta in monkeys. Offspring were exposed to lanadelumab-flyo at approximately 50% of the maternal plasma concentration out to postnatal day 21 (PND 21). Lanadelumab-flyo concentrations were approximately equivalent in maternal and offspring plasma at PND 90.
