Vanzacaftor, Tezacaftor, And Deutivacaftor

1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE ALYFTREK is indicated for the treatment of cystic fibrosis (CF) in patients 6 years of age and older who have at least one F508del mutation or another responsive mutation in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator ( CFTR ) gene (see Table 5 ) [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.1) ]. If the patient's genotype is unknown, an FDA-cleared CF mutation test should be used to confirm the presence of at least one indicated mutation. ALYFTREK is a combination of deutivacaftor, a CFTR potentiator, tezacaftor, and vanzacaftor indicated for the treatment of cystic fibrosis (CF) in patients aged 6 years and older who have at least one F508del mutation or another responsive mutation in the CFTR gene.

6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following clinically significant adverse reactions are discussed in greater detail in other sections of the labeling: Drug-Induced Liver Injury and Liver Failure [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] Hypersensitivity Reactions, Including Anaphylaxis [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] Patients Who Discontinued or Interrupted Elexacaftor-, Tezacaftor-, or Ivacaftor-Containing Drugs Due to Adverse Reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ] Intracranial Hypertension [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4) ] Cataracts [see Warnings and Precautions (5.7) ] Most common adverse reactions to ALYFTREK (≥5% of patients and at a frequency higher than ELX/TEZ/IVA by ≥1%) were cough, nasopharyngitis, upper respiratory tract infection, headache, oropharyngeal pain, influenza,...

8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary There are no available data on ALYFTREK use in pregnant women to evaluate for a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or other adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. Although there are no animal reproduction studies with the concomitant administration of vanzacaftor, tezacaftor, and deutivacaftor, separate reproductive and developmental studies were conducted with vanzacaftor and tezacaftor in pregnant rats and rabbits. Deutivacaftor is a deuterated isotopologue of ivacaftor with a toxicity profile similar to ivacaftor.

WARNING: DRUG-INDUCED LIVER INJURY AND LIVER FAILURE Elevated transaminases have been observed in patients treated with ALYFTREK. Cases of serious and potentially fatal drug-induced liver injury and liver failure were reported in patients who were taking a fixed-dose combination drug containing elexacaftor, tezacaftor, and ivacaftor, which contains the same or similar active ingredients as ALYFTREK. 5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Drug-Induced Liver Injury and Liver Failure : Elevated transaminases have been observed in patients treated with ALYFTREK. Cases of serious and potentially fatal drug-induced liver injury and liver failure have been reported with a drug that contains the same or similar active ingredients as ALYFTREK. Assess liver function tests (ALT, AST, alkaline phosphatase, and bilirubin) in all patients prior to initiating and throughout treatment with ALYFTREK. Interrupt ALYFTREK in the event of significant elevations in liver function tests or signs or symptoms of liver injury. ALYFTREK should not be used in patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh Class C). ALYFTREK is not recommended in patients with moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh Class B). 4 CONTRAINDICATIONS None. None. ( 4 )
