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 serious adverse reactions are discussed in greater detail in other sections of the labeling: Infusion Reactions [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )] Infections [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 )] Reduction in Immunoglobulins [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.4 )] The most common adverse reactions (≥10%) were infusion reactions and upper respiratory tract infections ( 6.1 ). To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact TG Therapeutics at 1-877-848-9462 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 clinical practice. In active-controlled clinical trials (Study 1 and Study 2), 545 patients with RMS received BRIUMVI [see Clinical Studies ( 14 )]. The most common adverse reactions in RMS trials (incidence of at least 10%) were infusion reactions and upper respiratory tract infections. Table 2 summarizes the adverse reactions that occurred in RMS trials (Study 1 and Study 2). The most common cause of discontinuation in patients treated with BRIUMVI was infection (1.3%). Table 2: Adverse Reactions in Adult Patients with RMS with an Incidence of at least 5% for BRIUMVI and Higher than Teriflunomide from Study 1 and Study 2 Adverse Reactions BRIUMVI 450 mg IV a (N=545) % Teriflunomide 14 mg PO (N=548) % a The first dose of BRIUMVI was given as an intravenous (IV) infusion of 150 mg. The second dose was given as an IV infusion of 450 mg two weeks after the first infusion. b Includes the following: nasopharyngitis, upper respiratory tract infection, respiratory tract infection, respiratory tract infection viral, pharyngitis, rhinitis, sinusitis, acute sinusitis, tonsillitis, laryngitis, chronic sinusitis, viral pharyngitis, viral rhinitis, viral upper respiratory tract infection, chronic tonsillitis, pharyngitis streptococcal, sinusitis bacterial, and tonsillitis bacterial. c Includes the following: bronchitis, pneumonia, tracheitis, tracheobronchitis, COVID-19 pneumonia, bronchitis bacterial, and pneumonia viral. d Includes several related terms. Infusion reactions 48 12 Upper respiratory tract infections b 45 41 Lower respiratory tract infections c 9 7 Herpes virus-associated infections d 6 5 Pain in extremity 6 4 Insomnia 6 3 Fatigue 5 4 Infusion Reactions The incidence of infusion reactions was highest with the first infusion (43%), decreasing with subsequent infusions (10% with second, 8% with third infusion). Three (0.6%) patients treated with BRIUMVI reported serious infusion reactions. Most frequently reported symptoms (greater than 5%) included pyrexia, chills, headache, and influenza-like illness [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )] . Laboratory Abnormalities Decreased Immunoglobulins BRIUMVI decreased total immunoglobulins with the greatest decline seen in IgM levels. The proportion of BRIUMVI-treated patients at baseline reporting IgG, IgA, and IgM below the LLN was 6.3%, 0.6%, and 1.1%, respectively. Following treatment, the proportion of BRIUMVI-treated patients reporting IgG, IgA, and IgM below the LLN at 96 weeks was 6.5%, 2.4%, and 20.9%, respectively. Decreased Neutrophil Levels In Studies 1 and 2, decreased neutrophil counts (<LLN) occurred in 15% of BRIUMVI-treated patients compared to 22% in teriflunomide-treated patients. The majority of decreased neutrophil counts were observed once for a given patient treated with BRIUMVI, and were between 1.0 and 1.5 x 10 9 /L. In RMS studies, 3% of patients in the BRIUMVI group had neutrophil counts less than 1.0 x 10 9 /L, compared to 2% of patients in the teriflunomide group. Overall, 1% of patients in the BRIUMVI group had neutrophil counts less than 0.5 x 10 9 /L, compared to 0% of patients in the teriflunomide group, and these were not associated with an infection.

BRIUMVI Drug Interactions
Information about and practical guidance on preventing clinically significant drug/drug and drug/food interactions that may occur in people taking the drug.7 DRUG INTERACTIONS 7.1 Immunosuppressive or Immune-Modulating Therapies The concomitant usage of BRIUMVI with other immune-modulating or immunosuppressant drugs, including immunosuppressant doses of corticosteroids, may increase the risk of infection. Consider the risk of additive immune system effects when co-administering immunosuppressive therapies with BRIUMVI. When switching from therapies with immune effects, the duration and mechanism of action of these therapies should be taken into account because of potential additive immunosuppressive effects when initiating BRIUMVI.
Clinical pharmacology
Information about the clinical pharmacology and actions of the drug in humans.12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY 12.1 Mechanism of Action The precise mechanism by which ublituximab-xiiy exerts its therapeutic effects in multiple sclerosis is unknown, but is presumed to involve binding to CD20, a cell surface antigen present on pre-B and mature B lymphocytes. Following cell surface binding to B lymphocytes, ublituximab-xiiy results in cell lysis through mechanisms including antibody-dependent cellular cytolysis and complement-dependent cytolysis. 12.2 Pharmacodynamics For B-cell counts, assays for CD19 + B-cells are used because the presence of ublituximab-xiiy interferes with the CD20 assay. Treatment with BRIUMVI reduced CD19 + B-cell counts in blood by the first measured timepoint of 24 hours after infusion. In clinical studies (Study 1 and Study 2), B-cell counts rose to above the LLN or above baseline counts between infusions of BRIUMVI at least one time in 30 of 545 (5.5%) of patients. The median time for CD19 + B-cell counts to return to either baseline or LLN was 70.3 weeks (range 0.1-75.1 weeks) after the last BRIUMVI infusion. Within 1.5 years after the last infusion, B-cell counts rose to either baseline or LLN in 58% of patients. 12.3 Pharmacokinetics Ublituximab-xiiy exposures increased proportionally over a dose range of 150 mg (0.33 times approved recommended dosage) to 600 mg (1.33 times the approved recommended dosage) in patients with RMS. Following administration of the approved recommended dosage of BRIUMVI, the geometric mean steady-state AUC was 3000 mcg/mL per day (CV=28%) and the mean maximum concentration was 139 mcg/mL (CV=15%). Distribution The estimated central volume of distribution of ublituximab-xiiy was 3.18 L. Elimination The estimated mean terminal half-life of ublituximab-xiiy was 22 days. Metabolism Ublituximab-xiiy is a protein for which the expected metabolic pathway is degradation to small peptides and amino acids by ubiquitous proteolytic enzymes. Specific Populations There were no clinically meaningful differences in the pharmacokinetics of ublituximab-xiiy based on age, sex, body weight, anti-drug antibodies (ADAs) presence, mild renal impairment, or mild hepatic impairment. The effect of moderate to severe renal impairment or moderate to severe hepatic impairment on the pharmacokinetics of ublituximab-xiiy is unknown. Drug Interaction Studies No studies evaluating the drug interaction potential of ublituximab-xiiy have been conducted. 12.6 Immunogenicity The observed incidence of ADAs is highly dependent on the sensitivity and specificity of the assay. Differences in assay methods preclude meaningful comparisons of the incidence of ADAs in the studies described below with the incidence of ADAs in other studies, including those of ublituximab-xiiy or of other ublituximab products. In clinical studies (Study 1 and Study 2), serum samples from patients with RMS were tested for antibodies to ublituximab-xiiy during the 96-week treatment period. Of the 534 BRIUMVI-treated patients, 434 (81%) tested positive for ADAs at one or more timepoints, and 34 (6.4%) tested positive for neutralizing antibodies (NAbs). However, the assay used to measure NAbs is subject to interference from serum ublituximab-xiiy, possibly resulting in underestimation of the incidence of NAb formation and limiting the ability to characterize the clinical impact of NAbs. The presence of ADAs had no observable impact on the safety or efficacy of BRIUMVI.
Mechanism of action
Information about the established mechanism(s) of the drugÕs action in humans at various levels (for example receptor, membrane, tissue, organ, whole body). If the mechanism of action is not known, this field contains a statement about the lack of information.12.1 Mechanism of Action The precise mechanism by which ublituximab-xiiy exerts its therapeutic effects in multiple sclerosis is unknown, but is presumed to involve binding to CD20, a cell surface antigen present on pre-B and mature B lymphocytes. Following cell surface binding to B lymphocytes, ublituximab-xiiy results in cell lysis through mechanisms including antibody-dependent cellular cytolysis and complement-dependent cytolysis.
Pharmacodynamics
Information about any biochemical or physiologic pharmacologic effects of the drug or active metabolites related to the drugÕs clinical effect in preventing, diagnosing, mitigating, curing, or treating disease, or those related to adverse effects or toxicity.12.2 Pharmacodynamics For B-cell counts, assays for CD19 + B-cells are used because the presence of ublituximab-xiiy interferes with the CD20 assay. Treatment with BRIUMVI reduced CD19 + B-cell counts in blood by the first measured timepoint of 24 hours after infusion. In clinical studies (Study 1 and Study 2), B-cell counts rose to above the LLN or above baseline counts between infusions of BRIUMVI at least one time in 30 of 545 (5.5%) of patients. The median time for CD19 + B-cell counts to return to either baseline or LLN was 70.3 weeks (range 0.1-75.1 weeks) after the last BRIUMVI infusion. Within 1.5 years after the last infusion, B-cell counts rose to either baseline or LLN in 58% of patients.
Pharmacokinetics
Information about the clinically significant pharmacokinetics of a drug or active metabolites, for instance pertinent absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion parameters.12.3 Pharmacokinetics Ublituximab-xiiy exposures increased proportionally over a dose range of 150 mg (0.33 times approved recommended dosage) to 600 mg (1.33 times the approved recommended dosage) in patients with RMS. Following administration of the approved recommended dosage of BRIUMVI, the geometric mean steady-state AUC was 3000 mcg/mL per day (CV=28%) and the mean maximum concentration was 139 mcg/mL (CV=15%).

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 Hepatitis B virus screening and quantitative serum immunoglobulin screening are required before first dose ( 2.1 ). Pre-medicate with methylprednisolone (or an equivalent corticosteroid) and an antihistamine (e.g., diphenhydramine) prior to each infusion ( 2.2 ). Administer BRIUMVI by intravenous infusion. First Infusion: 150 mg intravenous infusion ( 2.3 ) Second Infusion: 450 mg intravenous infusion two weeks after the first infusion ( 2.3 ) Subsequent Infusions: 450 mg intravenous infusion 24 weeks after the first infusion and every 24 weeks thereafter ( 2.3 ) Must be diluted in 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP prior to administration ( 2.3 , 2.6 ). Monitor patients closely during and for at least one hour after the completion of the first two infusions. Post-infusion monitoring of subsequent infusions is at physician discretion unless infusion reaction and/or hypersensitivity has been observed ( 2.3 , 5.1 ). 2.1 Assessments Prior to First Dose of BRIUMVI Hepatitis B Virus Screening Prior to initiating BRIUMVI, perform Hepatitis B virus (HBV) screening. BRIUMVI is contraindicated in patients with active HBV confirmed by positive results for Hepatitis B surface antigen [HBsAg] and anti-HBV tests. For patients who are negative for HBsAg and positive for Hepatitis B core antibody [HBcAb+] or are carriers of HBV [HBsAg+], consult liver disease experts before starting and during treatment with BRIUMVI [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 )] . Serum Immunoglobulins Prior to initiating BRIUMVI, perform testing for quantitative serum immunoglobulins [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.4 )]. For patients with low serum immunoglobulins, consult immunology experts before initiating treatment with BRIUMVI. Vaccinations Because vaccination with live-attenuated or live vaccines is not recommended during treatment and after discontinuation until B-cell repletion, administer all immunizations according to immunization guidelines at least 4 weeks prior to initiation of BRIUMVI for live or live-attenuated vaccines and, whenever possible, at least 2 weeks prior to initiation of BRIUMVI for non-live vaccines [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 ) and Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.2 )] . 2.2 Assessment and Premedication Before Every Infusion Infection Assessment Prior to every infusion of BRIUMVI, determine whether there is an active infection. In case of active infection, delay infusion of BRIUMVI until the infection resolves [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 )] . Recommended Premedication Pre-medicate with 100 mg of methylprednisolone administered intravenously (or an equivalent oral dosage or equivalent corticosteroid) approximately 30 minutes prior to each BRIUMVI infusion to reduce the frequency and severity of infusion reactions [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )] . Pre-medicate with an antihistamine (e.g., diphenhydramine) administered orally or intravenously approximately 30-60 minutes prior to each BRIUMVI infusion to further reduce the frequency and severity of infusion reactions. The addition of an antipyretic (e.g., acetaminophen) may also be considered. Pregnancy Testing Pregnancy testing is recommended for females of reproductive potential prior to each infusion with BRIUMVI [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.3 ) and Use in Specific Populations ( 8.1 , 8.3 )]. 2.3 Recommended Dosage and Dose Administration Administer BRIUMVI under the close supervision of an experienced healthcare professional with access to appropriate medical support to manage severe reactions, such as serious infusion reactions. First Infusion: 150 mg intravenous infusion Second Infusion: 450 mg intravenous infusion administered two weeks after the first infusion Subsequent Infusions: 450 mg intravenous infusion administered 24 weeks after the first infusion and every 24 weeks thereafter Observe the patient for at least one hour after the completion of the first two infusions. Post-infusion monitoring of subsequent infusions is at physician discretion unless infusion reaction and/or hypersensitivity has been observed in association with the current or any prior infusion [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )]. Table 1: Recommended Dose, Infusion Rate, and Infusion Duration for MS 1 Withdraw and discard the required volume of 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP from the infusion bag following the preparation instructions in Preparation and Administration ( 2.6 ). 2 Infusion duration may take longer if the infusion is interrupted or slowed. 3 Administer the first subsequent infusion 24 weeks after the first infusion. Dose (mg) and Volume (mL) of BRIUMVI Volume (mL) of 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP 1 Infusion Rate (mL/hour) Duration 2 First Infusion 150 mg (6 mL) 250 mL Start at 10 mL per hour for the first 30 minutes Increase to 20 mL per hour for the next 30 minutes Increase to 35 mL per hour for the next hour Increase to 100 mL per hour for the remaining 2 hours 4 hours Second Infusion (2 weeks later) 450 mg (18 mL) 250 mL Start at 100 mL per hour for the first 30 minutes Increase to 400 mL per hour for the remaining 30 minutes 1 hour Subsequent Infusions (once every 24 weeks) 3 450 mg (18 mL) 250 mL Start at 100 mL per hour for the first 30 minutes Increase to 400 mL per hour for the remaining 30 minutes 1 hour 2.4 Delayed or Missed Doses If a planned infusion of BRIUMVI is missed, administer BRIUMVI as soon as possible; do not wait until the next scheduled infusion. Reset the infusion schedule to administer the next sequential infusion 24 weeks after the missed infusion is administered. Infusions of BRIUMVI must be separated by at least 5 months. 2.5 Dosage Modifications Because of Infusion Reactions Dose modifications in response to infusion reactions depend on the severity. Life-Threatening Infusion Reactions Immediately stop infusion and permanently discontinue BRIUMVI if there are signs of a life-threatening or disabling infusion reaction [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )] . Provide appropriate supportive treatment. Severe Infusion Reactions Immediately interrupt the infusion and administer appropriate supportive treatment, as necessary [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )] . Restart the infusion only after all symptoms have resolved. When restarting, begin at half of the infusion rate at the time of onset of the infusion reaction [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.3 )] . If this rate is tolerated, increase the rate as described in Table 1 . This change in rate will increase the total duration of the infusion but not the total dose. Mild to Moderate Infusion Reactions Reduce the infusion rate to half the rate at the onset of the infusion reaction and maintain the reduced rate for at least 30 minutes [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )] . If the reduced rate is tolerated, increase the rate as described in Table 1 . This change in rate will increase the total duration of the infusion but not the total dose. 2.6 Preparation and Administration Preparation Only use 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP to dilute BRIUMVI. BRIUMVI must be prepared by a healthcare professional using aseptic technique. Prepare the solution for infusion as follows: BRIUMVI should be a clear to opalescent, colorless to slightly yellow solution. Parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration, whenever solution and container permit. Do not use the solution if discolored or if the solution contains discrete foreign particulate matter. Preparation of Solution for First Infusion: Prepare infusion bag for First Infusion (150 mg) using one vial (150 mg/6 mL) of BRIUMVI. Withdraw 6 mL 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP from the 250 mL infusion bag and discard. Withdraw 6 mL BRIUMVI solution from the vial. Add 6 mL (150 mg) BRIUMVI into the infusion bag containing 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP. Preparation of Solution for Second Infusion and Subsequent Infusions: Prepare infusion bag for Second Infusion (450 mg) and Subsequent Infusions (450 mg) using three vials (150 mg/6 mL) of BRIUMVI. Withdraw 18 mL 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP from the 250 mL infusion bag and discard. Withdraw 18 mL BRIUMVI solution from the vials (6 mL/vial). Add 18 mL (450 mg) BRIUMVI into the infusion bag containing 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP. Mix diluted solution by gentle inversion. Do not shake. Administration of Infusion Solution Prior to the start of the intravenous infusion, the contents of the infusion bag should be at room temperature [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.7 )] . Administer the diluted infusion solution through a dedicated line. No incompatibilities between BRIUMVI and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or polyolefin (PO) bags and intravenous (IV) administration sets have been observed. 2.7 Storage Instructions for the Prepared Infusion Solution Use the prepared infusion solution immediately. If the diluted solution is not administered immediately, store refrigerated at 2°C to 8°C (36°F to 46°F) for up to 24 hours. Do not freeze. If the diluted solution is stored refrigerated, allow it to equilibrate to room temperature prior to administration (approximately 2 hours). The diluted solution can be stored for an additional 8 hours at room temperature up to 25°C (77°F), which includes the equilibration time and infusion time.

BRIUMVI can cause serious side effects, including: Infusion reactions. Infusion reactions are one of the most common side effects of BRIUMVI. Infusion reactions can be serious and may require you to be hospitalized. You will be monitored during your infusion and may be monitored after each infusion of BRIUMVI for signs and symptoms of an infusion reaction. Tell your healthcare provider if you get any of these symptoms: fever chills headache flu-like symptoms fast heartbeat hives itchy skin dizziness feeling faint swelling of tongue or throat trouble breathing wheezing nausea abdominal pain throat irritation redness of the face or skin These infusion reactions can happen over 24 hours after your infusion. It is important that you call your healthcare provider right away if you get any of the signs or symptoms listed above after each infusion. If you get an infusion reaction, your healthcare provider may need to stop or slow down the rate of your infusion. Infections. Infections are a common side effect, and upper respiratory tract infections are one of the most common side effects of BRIUMVI. BRIUMVI increases your risk of getting infections caused by bacteria or viruses that may be life-threatening or cause death. Tell your healthcare provider if you have an infection or have any of the following signs of infection including fever, chills, a cough that does not go away, or painful urination. Your healthcare provider should delay your treatment with BRIUMVI until your infection is gone. Hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation: Before starting treatment with BRIUMVI, your healthcare provider will do blood tests to check for hepatitis B viral infection. If you have ever had hepatitis B virus infection, the hepatitis B virus may become active again during or after treatment with BRIUMVI. Hepatitis B virus becoming active again (called reactivation) may cause serious liver problems including liver failure or death. Your healthcare provider will monitor you if you are at risk for hepatitis B virus reactivation during treatment and after you stop receiving BRIUMVI. Weakened immune system: BRIUMVI taken before or after other medicines that weaken the immune system could increase your risk of getting infections. Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy (PML): PML may happen with BRIUMVI. PML is a rare, serious brain infection caused by a virus that may get worse over days or weeks. PML can result in death or severe disability. Tell your healthcare provider right away if you have any new or worsening neurologic signs or symptoms. These symptoms may include weakness on one side of your body, loss of coordination in arms and legs, vision problems, changes in thinking and memory which may lead to confusion, and personality changes. Low immunoglobulins: BRIUMVI may cause a decrease in some types of antibodies. Your healthcare provider will do blood tests to check your blood immunoglobulin levels. What is BRIUMVI? BRIUMVI is a prescription medicine used to treat adults with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (MS), including: clinically isolated syndrome relapsing-remitting disease active secondary progressive disease It is not known if BRIUMVI is safe or effective in children.

Clinical studies
This field may contain references to clinical studies in place of detailed discussion in other sections of the labeling.14 CLINICAL STUDIES The efficacy of BRIUMVI was demonstrated in two randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel group, active comparator-controlled clinical trials of identical design, in patients with RMS treated for 96 weeks [Study 1 (NCT03277261) and Study 2 (NCT03277248)]. Patients were randomized to receive either BRIUMVI, given as an IV infusion of 150 mg for the first infusion, 450 mg two weeks after the first infusion for the second infusion/second dose, and 450 mg every 24 weeks after the first infusion for subsequent doses (third infusion and beyond) with oral placebo administered daily; or teriflunomide, the active comparator, given orally as a 14 mg daily dose with IV placebo administered on the same schedule as BRIUMVI. Both studies enrolled patients who had experienced at least one relapse in the previous year, two relapses in the previous two years, or had the presence of a T1 gadolinium (Gd)-enhancing lesion in the previous year. Patients were also required to have an Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score from 0 to 5.5 at baseline. Neurological evaluations were performed at baseline, every 12 weeks, and at the time of a suspected relapse. Brain MRI scans were performed at baseline and at Weeks 12, 24, 48, and 96. The primary outcome of both Study 1 and Study 2 was the annualized relapse rate (ARR) over the treatment period. Additional outcome measures included: the total number of MRI T1 Gd-enhancing lesions by Week 96, the total number of new or enlarging MRI T2 hyperintense lesions by Week 96, and time to confirmed disability progression for at least 12 weeks. Disability progression was defined as an increase of greater than or equal to 1.0 point from the baseline EDSS score that was attributable to MS when the baseline score was 5.5 or less, and greater than or equal to 0.5 points when the baseline score was above 5.5. Confirmed disability progression was evaluated in a pooled analysis of Studies 1 and 2. Disability progression was considered confirmed when the increase in the EDSS was confirmed at a regularly scheduled visit 12 weeks after the initial documentation of neurological worsening. In Study 1, 274 patients were randomized to BRIUMVI and 275 to teriflunomide. Of those randomized to BRIUMVI, 88% completed the 96-week treatment period; of those randomized to teriflunomide, 92% completed the 96-week treatment period. The baseline demographic and disease characteristics were balanced between the two treatment groups. At baseline, the mean age was 37 years, 97% were White, and 63% were female. In Study 2, 272 patients were randomized to BRIUMVI and 273 to teriflunomide. Of those randomized to BRIUMVI, 93% completed the 96-week treatment period; of those randomized to teriflunomide, 88% completed the 96-week treatment period. The baseline demographic and disease characteristics were balanced between the two treatment groups. At baseline, the mean age was 35 years, 99% were White, and 65% were female. In Study 1 and Study 2, BRIUMVI significantly lowered the ARR compared to teriflunomide. BRIUMVI statistically significantly reduced the number of T1 Gd-enhancing lesions and the number of new or enlarging T2 lesions in both studies compared to teriflunomide. There was no statistically significant difference in disability progression confirmed at 12 weeks between BRIUMVI-treated and teriflunomide-treated patients. Results for Study 1 and Study 2 are presented in Table 3 .

Geriatric use
Information about any limitations on any geriatric indications, needs for specific monitoring, hazards associated with use of the drug in the geriatric population.8.5 Geriatric Use Clinical studies of BRIUMVI did not include sufficient numbers of patients 65 years of age and older to determine whether they respond differently from younger adult patients.
Pediatric use
Information about any limitations on any pediatric indications, needs for specific monitoring, hazards associated with use of the drug in any subsets of the pediatric population (such as neonates, infants, children, or adolescents), differences between pediatric and adult responses to the drug, and other information related to the safe and effective pediatric use of the drug.8.4 Pediatric Use Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established.
Pregnancy
Information about effects the drug may have on pregnant women or on a fetus. This field may be ommitted if the drug is not absorbed systemically and the drug is not known to have a potential for indirect harm to the fetus. It may contain information about the established pregnancy category classification for the drug. (That information is nominally listed in the teratogenic_effects field, but may be listed here instead.)8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary There are no data on the developmental risk associated with the use of BRIUMVI in pregnant women. Data from case reports of pregnancies occurring during clinical trials with BRIUMVI are insufficient to identify a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. Although there are no data on ublituximab-xiiy, monoclonal antibodies can be actively transported across the placenta, and BRIUMVI may cause immunosuppression in the in-utero exposed infant [see Clinical Considerations , Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 , 5.3 ), and Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.1 , 12.2 )]. Weekly intravenous administration of ublituximab-xiiy to pregnant monkeys during the first, second, or third trimester of pregnancy resulted in embryofetal loss; administration during the second trimester resulted in external, skeletal, and visceral abnormalities in infants (see Data ) . The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defect, loss, or other adverse outcomes. 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. Clinical Considerations Fetal/Neonatal Adverse Reactions Transport of endogenous IgG antibodies across the placenta increases as pregnancy progresses and peaks during the third trimester. There are no data on B-cell levels in human neonates following maternal exposure to BRIUMVI. However, transient peripheral B-cell depletion and lymphocytopenia have been reported in infants born to mothers exposed to other anti-CD20 antibodies during pregnancy. Avoid administering live vaccines to neonates and infants exposed to BRIUMVI in utero until B-cell recovery occurs [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 ) and Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.2 )]. Data Animal Data Weekly intravenous administration of ublituximab-xiiy (0 or 30 mg/kg) to separate groups of pregnant monkeys during the first, second, or third trimester of pregnancy produced a severe immunogenic response in dams, resulting in maternal morbidity and death and embryofetal loss. Dosing was terminated in dams after only two doses during the third trimester because of multiple deaths in dams dosed during the first and second trimesters. Ublituximab-related external, viscera, and skeletal abnormalities occurred in two infants from dams exposed during the second trimester of pregnancy. Histopathology evaluations revealed minimal to moderate degeneration/necrosis in the brain. Findings in infants included contractures and abnormal flexion of multiple limbs and tail, shortened mandible, elongate calvarium, enlargement of ears, and/or craniomandibular abnormalities which were attributed to brain necrosis. Abnormalities were absent in infants of dams exposed during the first trimester of pregnancy. A no-effect dose for adverse effects on embryofetal development in monkeys was not identified.
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 data on the developmental risk associated with the use of BRIUMVI in pregnant women. Data from case reports of pregnancies occurring during clinical trials with BRIUMVI are insufficient to identify a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes.

A no-effect dose for adverse effects on embryofetal development in monkeys was not identified. 8.2 Lactation Risk Summary There are no data on the presence of ublituximab-xiiy in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects of the drug on milk production. Human IgG is excreted in human milk, and the potential for absorption of ublituximab-xiiy to lead to B-cell depletion in the infant is unknown. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother's clinical need for BRIUMVI and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from BRIUMVI or from the underlying maternal condition. 8.3 Females and Males of Reproductive Potential Pregnancy Testing Pregnancy testing is recommended for females of reproductive potential prior to each infusion [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.3 ) and Use in Specific Populations ( 8.1 )]. Contraception Females Females of reproductive potential should use effective contraception while receiving BRIUMVI and for 6 months after the last dose of BRIUMVI [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.3 ) and Use in Specific Populations ( 8.1 )] . 8.4 Pediatric Use Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established. 8.5 Geriatric Use Clinical studies of BRIUMVI did not include sufficient numbers of patients 65 years of age and older to determine whether they respond differently from younger adult patients.
