Adverse reactions

Information about undesirable effects, reasonably associated with use of the drug, that may occur as part of the pharmacological action of the drug or may be unpredictable in its occurrence. Adverse reactions include those that occur with the drug, and if applicable, with drugs in the same pharmacologically active and chemically related class. There is considerable variation in the listing of adverse reactions. They may be categorized by organ system, by severity of reaction, by frequency, by toxicological mechanism, or by a combination of these.
6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in labeling: Implant migration [see Contraindications ( 4.4 )] Hypersensitivity [ see Contraindications ( 4.5 ) ] Corneal adverse reactions [ see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 ) ] Macular edema [ see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.3 ) ] Intraocular inflammation [ see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.4 ) ] Pigmentation [ see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.5 ) ] Endophthalmitis [ see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.6 ) ] In controlled studies, the most common ocular adverse reaction reported by 27% of patients was conjunctival hyperemia. Other common adverse reactions reported in 5-10% of patients were foreign body sensation, eye pain, photophobia, conjunctival hemorrhage, dry eye, eye irritation, intraocular pressure increased, corneal endothelial cell loss, vision blurred, iritis, and headache. ( 6.1 ) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact AbbVie at 1-800-678-1605 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. The most common ocular adverse reaction observed in two randomized, active-controlled clinical trials with DURYSTA in patients with OAG or OHT was conjunctival hyperemia, which was reported in 27% of patients. Other common ocular adverse reactions reported in 5-10% of patients were foreign body sensation, eye pain, photophobia, conjunctival hemorrhage, dry eye, eye irritation, intraocular pressure increased, corneal endothelial cell loss, vision blurred, and iritis. Ocular adverse reactions occurring in 1-5% of patients were anterior chamber cell, lacrimation increased, corneal edema, aqueous humor leakage, iris adhesions, ocular discomfort, corneal touch, iris hyperpigmentation, anterior chamber flare, anterior chamber inflammation, and macular edema. The following additional adverse drug reactions occurred in less than 1% of patients: hyphema, iridocyclitis, uveitis, corneal opacity, corneal thickening, product administered at inappropriate site, corneal decompensation, cystoid macular edema, and drug hypersensitivity. The most common nonocular adverse reaction was headache, which was observed in 5% of patients. 6.2 Postmarketing Experience The following adverse reactions have been identified during postapproval use of DURYSTA. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.

Clinical pharmacology

Information about the clinical pharmacology and actions of the drug in humans.
12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY 12.1 Mechanism of Action Bimatoprost, a prostaglandin analog, is a synthetic structural analog of prostaglandin with ocular hypotensive activity. Bimatoprost is believed to lower IOP in humans by increasing outflow of aqueous humor through both the trabecular meshwork (conventional) and uveoscleral routes (unconventional). Elevated IOP presents a major risk factor for glaucomatous field loss. The higher the level of IOP, the greater the likelihood of optic nerve damage and visual field loss. 12.3 Pharmacokinetics After a single administration of DURYSTA, bimatoprost concentrations were below the lower limit of quantitation (0.001 ng/mL) in the majority (approximately 92%) of patients. The maximum bimatoprost concentration observed in any patient was 0.00224 ng/mL. Bimatoprost acid concentrations were also below the lower limit of quantitation (0.01 ng/mL) in almost all (approximately 99%) of patients.

Contraindications

Information about situations in which the drug product is contraindicated or should not be used because the risk of use clearly outweighs any possible benefit, including the type and nature of reactions that have been reported.
4 CONTRAINDICATIONS Ocular or periocular infections ( 4.1 ) Corneal endothelial cell dystrophy ( 4.2 ) Prior corneal transplantation ( 4.3 ) Absent or ruptured posterior lens capsule ( 4.4 ) Hypersensitivity ( 4.5 ) 4.1 Ocular or Periocular Infections DURYSTA is contraindicated in patients with active or suspected ocular or periocular infections. 4.2 Corneal Endothelial Cell Dystrophy DURYSTA is contraindicated in patients with corneal endothelial cell dystrophy (e.g., Fuchs’ Dystrophy) [ see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 ) ] . 4.3 Prior Corneal Transplantation DURYSTA is contraindicated in patients with prior corneal transplantation, or endothelial cell transplants [e.g., Descemet’s Stripping Automated Endothelial Keratoplasty (DSAEK)]. 4.4 Absent or Ruptured Posterior Lens Capsule DURYSTA is contraindicated in patients whose posterior lens capsule is absent or ruptured, due to the risk of implant migration into the posterior segment. Laser posterior capsulotomy in pseudophakic patients is not a contraindication for DURYSTA use if the intraocular lens fully covers the opening in the posterior capsule. 4.5 Hypersensitivity DURYSTA is contraindicated in patients with hypersensitivity to bimatoprost or to any other components of the product [ see Adverse Reactions ( 6.1 ) ] .

Description

General information about the drug product, including the proprietary and established name of the drug, the type of dosage form and route of administration to which the label applies, qualitative and quantitative ingredient information, the pharmacologic or therapeutic class of the drug, and the chemical name and structural formula of the drug.
11 DESCRIPTION DURYSTA is a sterile intracameral implant containing 10 mcg of bimatoprost, a prostaglandin analog, in a solid polymer sustained-release drug delivery system (DDS). The drug delivery system consists of poly (D,L-lactide), poly (D,L-lactide-co-glycolide), poly (D,L-lactide) acid end, and polyethylene glycol 3350. DURYSTA is preloaded into a single-use, DDS applicator to facilitate injection of the rod-shaped implant directly into the anterior chamber of the eye. The chemical name for bimatoprost is ( Z )-7-[(1 R ,2 R ,3 R ,5 S )-3,5-dihydroxy-2-[(1 E ,3 S )-3-hydroxy-5-phenyl-1-pentenyl]cyclopentyl]- N -ethyl-5-heptenamide, and its molecular weight is 415.57. Its molecular formula is C 25 H 37 NO 4 . Its structural formula is: Bimatoprost is a white to off-white powder, soluble in ethyl alcohol and methyl alcohol and slightly soluble in water. The polymer matrix slowly degrades to lactic acid and glycolic acid. The chemical name for bimatoprost is (Z)-7-[(1R,2R,3R,5S)-3,5-dihydroxy-2-[(1E,3S)-3-hydroxy-5-phenyl-1-pentenyl]cyclopentyl]-N-ethyl-5-heptenamide, and its molecular weight is 415.57. Its molecular formula is C25H37NO4.

Dosage and administration

Information about the drug product’s dosage and administration recommendations, including starting dose, dose range, titration regimens, and any other clinically sigificant information that affects dosing recommendations.
2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION For ophthalmic intracameral administration. ( 2.1 ) The intracameral administration should be carried out under standard aseptic conditions. ( 2.2 ) Figure 1 Figure 2 2. 1 General Information DURYSTA is an ophthalmic drug delivery system for a single intracameral administration of a biodegradable implant. DURYSTA should not be readministered to an eye that received a prior DURYSTA. 2.2 Administration The intracameral injection procedure must be performed under magnification that allows clear visualization of the anterior chamber structures and should be carried out using standard aseptic conditions for intracameral procedures, with the patient’s head in a stabilized position. The eye should not be dilated prior to the procedure. Remove the foil pouch from the carton and examine for damage. Then, open the foil pouch over a sterile field and gently drop the applicator on a sterile tray. Once the foil pouch is opened, use the applicator promptly. Figure 1 Perform a detailed visual inspection of the applicator, including ensuring that the actuator button has not been depressed, and the safety tab is in place. Carefully remove the plastic safety cap taking care to avoid contacting the needle tip. Inspect the needle tip for damage under magnification prior to use; the implant retention plug may be visible in the bevel and should not be removed. Prior to use, remove the safety tab by pulling it out perpendicular to the long axis of the applicator (refer to Figure 1a above). Do not twist or bend the tab. Stabilize the eye as the needle is advanced through the cornea. Enter the anterior chamber with the needle bevel visible through clear cornea. Enter parallel to the iris plane, adjacent to the limbus through clear cornea in the superotemporal quadrant. The needle should be inserted approximately 2 bevel lengths with the bevel completely within the anterior chamber; avoid positioning the needle bevel directly over the pupil. Ensure the needle is not bent before depressing the actuator button. See Figure 2. Figure 2 Depress the back half of the actuator button (refer to Figure 1b above) firmly until an audible and/or palpable click is noted. Following the release of the implant, remove the needle via the same track in which it was inserted and tamponade the opening. The implant should not be left in the corneal injection track. Check the injection site for leaks; make sure that it is self-sealing and the anterior chamber is formed. After injection, do not recap the needle. Dispose of the used applicator in a sharps disposal container and in accordance with local requirements. Instruct the patient to remain upright for at least 1 hour after the procedure so the implant can settle. Some degree of eye redness and discomfort is expected following administration. However, it is recommended to instruct patients that if the eye becomes progressively red, sensitive to light, painful, or develops a change in vision, they should immediately contact the physician.

8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary There are no adequate and well-controlled studies of DURYSTA (bimatoprost intracameral implant) administration in pregnant women to inform a drug associated risk. Oral administration of bimatoprost to pregnant rats and mice throughout organogenesis did not produce adverse maternal or fetal effects at clinically relevant exposures. Oral administration of bimatoprost to rats from the start of organogenesis to the end of lactation did not produce adverse maternal, fetal or neonatal effects at clinically relevant exposures [see Animal Data] . Data Animal Data In an embryofetal development rat study, oral administration of bimatoprost to pregnant rats during organogenesis produced abortion at 0.6 mg/kg/day (1770-times the human systemic exposure to bimatoprost from DURYSTA, based on C max and a blood-to plasma partition ratio of 0.858). The No Observed Adverse Effect Level (NOAEL) for abortion was 0.3 mg/kg/day (estimated at 470-times the human systemic exposure to bimatoprost from DURYSTA, based on C max ). No fetal abnormalities were observed at doses up to 0.6 mg/kg/day. In an embryofetal development mouse study, oral administration of bimatoprost to pregnant mice during organogenesis produced abortion and early delivery at 0.3 mg/kg/day (2240-times the human systemic exposure to bimatoprost from DURYSTA, based on plasma C max level; blood-to plasma partition ratio of 0.858). The NOAEL for abortion and early delivery was 0.1 mg/kg/day (400-times the human systemic exposure to bimatoprost from DURYSTA, based on C max ). No fetal abnormalities were observed at doses up to 0.6 mg/kg/day (5200-times the human systemic exposure to bimatoprost from DURYSTA, based on C max ). In a pre/postnatal development study, oral administration of bimatoprost to pregnant rats from gestation day 7 through lactation resulted in reduced gestation length, increased late resorptions, fetal deaths, and postnatal pup mortality, and reduced pup body weight at 0.3 mg/kg/day (estimated 470-times the human systemic exposure to bimatoprost from DURYSTA, based plasma C max and a blood-to plasma partition ratio of 0.858). No adverse effects were observed in rat offspring at 0.1 mg/kg/day (estimated 350-times the human systemic exposure to bimatoprost from DURYSTA, based on plasma C max ).

Use in specific populations

Information about use of the drug by patients in specific populations, including pregnant women and nursing mothers, pediatric patients, and geriatric patients.
8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS 8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary There are no adequate and well-controlled studies of DURYSTA (bimatoprost intracameral implant) administration in pregnant women to inform a drug associated risk. Oral administration of bimatoprost to pregnant rats and mice throughout organogenesis did not produce adverse maternal or fetal effects at clinically relevant exposures.

No adverse effects were observed in rat offspring at 0.1 mg/kg/day (estimated 350-times the human systemic exposure to bimatoprost from DURYSTA, based on plasma C max ). 8.2 Lactation Risk Summary There is no information regarding the presence of bimatoprost in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infants, or the effects on milk production. In animal studies, topical bimatoprost has been shown to be excreted in breast milk. Because many drugs are excreted in human milk, caution should be exercised when DURYSTA is administered to a nursing woman. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered, along with the mother's clinical need for DURYSTA and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed child from DURYSTA. 8.4 Pediatric Use Safety and effectiveness of DURYSTA in pediatric patients have not been established. 8.5 Geriatric Use No overall differences in safety or effectiveness have been observed between elderly and other adult patients.
