EYLEA

Aflibercept is a recombinant fusion protein consisting of portions of human VEGF receptors 1 and 2 extracellular domains fused to the Fc portion of human IgG1 formulated as an iso-osmotic solution for intravitreal administration. Aflibercept is a dimeric glycoprotein with a protein molecular weight of 97 kilodaltons (kDa) and contains glycosylation, constituting an additional 15% of the total molecular mass, resulting in a total molecular weight of 115 kDa. Aflibercept is produced in recombinant Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. EYLEA (aflibercept) Injection is a sterile, clear, and colorless to pale yellow solution. EYLEA does not contain anti-microbial preservative and is supplied as a sterile, aqueous solution for intravitreal injection in a single-dose pre-filled glass syringe or a single-dose glass vial designed to deliver 0.05 mL (50 microliters) of solution containing 2 mg of aflibercept in polysorbate 20 (0.015 mg), sodium chloride (0.117 mg), sodium phosphate monobasic monohydrate (0.055 mg), sodium phosphate dibasic heptahydrate (0.027 mg), sucrose (2.5 mg) and water for injection with a pH of 6.2.

EYLEA is indicated for the treatment of: EYLEA is a vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitor indicated for the treatment of patients with: Neovascular (Wet) Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) ( 1.1 ) Macular Edema Following Retinal Vein Occlusion (RVO) ( 1.2 ) Diabetic Macular Edema (DME) ( 1.3 ) Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) ( 1.4 ) Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) ( 1.5 ) 1.1 Neovascular (Wet) Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) 1.2 Macular Edema Following Retinal Vein Occlusion (RVO) 1.3 Diabetic Macular Edema (DME) 1.4 Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) 1.5 Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP)

Neovascular (Wet) Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) The recommended dose for EYLEA is 2 mg (0.05 mL of 40 mg/mL solution) administered by intravitreal injection every 4 weeks (approximately every 28 days, monthly) for the first 3 months, followed by 2 mg (0.05 mL of 40 mg/mL solution) via intravitreal injection once every 8 weeks (2 months). ( 2.5 ) Although EYLEA may be dosed as frequently as 2 mg every 4 weeks (approximately every 25 days, monthly), additional efficacy was not demonstrated in most patients when EYLEA was dosed every 4 weeks compared to every 8 weeks. Some patients may need every 4 week (monthly) dosing after the first 12 weeks (3 months). ( 2.5 ) Although not as effective as the recommended every 8 week dosing regimen, patients may also be treated with one dose every 12 weeks after one year of effective therapy. Patients should be assessed regularly. ( 2.5 ) Macular Edema Following Retinal Vein Occlusion (RVO) The recommended dose for EYLEA is 2 mg (0.05 mL of 40 mg/mL solution) administered by intravitreal injection once every 4 weeks (approximately every 25 days, monthly). ( 2.6 ) Diabetic Macular Edema (DME) and Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) The recommended dose for EYLEA is 2 mg (0.05 mL of 40 mg/mL solution) administered by intravitreal injection every 4 weeks (approximately every 28 days, monthly) for the first 5 injections followed by 2 mg (0.05 mL of 40 mg/mL solution) via intravitreal injection once every 8 weeks (2 months). ( 2.7 , 2.8 ) Although EYLEA may be dosed as frequently as 2 mg every 4 weeks (approximately every 25 days, monthly), additional efficacy was not demonstrated in most patients when EYLEA was dosed every 4 weeks compared to every 8 weeks. Some patients may need every 4 week (monthly) dosing after the first 20 weeks (5 months). (2.7 , 2.8 ) Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) The recommended dose for EYLEA is 0.4 mg (0.01 mL or 10 microliters of 40 mg/mL solution) administered by intravitreal injection. Treatment may be given bilaterally on the same day. Injections may be repeated in each eye. The treatment interval between doses injected into the same eye should be at least 10 days. ( 2.9 ) 2.1 Important Injection Instructions For ophthalmic intravitreal injection. EYLEA must only be administered by a qualified physician. Pre-filled Syringe: A 30-gauge × ½-inch sterile injection needle is needed but not provided. Vial: A 5-micron sterile filter needle (18-gauge × 1½-inch), a 1-mL Luer lock syringe and a 30-gauge × ½-inch sterile injection needle are needed. EYLEA is available packaged as follows: Pre-filled Syringe Vial Kit with Injection Components (filter needle, syringe, injection needle) [see How Supplied/Storage and Handling (16) ]. 2.2 Preparation for Administration – Pre-filled Syringe The EYLEA pre-filled glass syringe is sterile and for one-time use in one eye only. Do not use the EYLEA pre-filled syringe for the treatment of ROP. The pre-filled syringe should be inspected visually prior to administration. Do not use if particulates, cloudiness, or discoloration are visible, or if the package is open or damaged. The appearance of the syringe cap on the pre-filled syringe may vary (for example, color and design). Do not use if any part of the pre-filled syringe is damaged or if the syringe cap is detached from the Luer lock. The intravitreal injection should be performed with a 30-gauge × ½-inch injection needle (not provided). The pre-filled syringe contains more than the recommended dose of 2 mg aflibercept (equivalent to 50 microliters). The excess volume must be discarded prior to the administration. PRE-FILLED SYRINGE DESCRIPTION – Figure 1: Use aseptic technique to carry out the following steps: 1. PREPARE When ready to administer EYLEA, open the carton and remove sterilized blister pack. Carefully peel open the sterilized blister pack ensuring the sterility of its contents. Keep the syringe in the sterile tray until you are ready for assembly. 2. REMOVE SYRINGE Using aseptic technique, remove the syringe from the sterilized blister pack. 3. TWIST OFF SYRINGE CAP Twist off (do not snap off) the syringe cap by holding the syringe in one hand and the syringe cap with the thumb and forefinger of the other hand (see Figure 2 ). Note: To avoid compromising the sterility of the product, do not pull back on the plunger. Figure 2: 4. ATTACH NEEDLE Using aseptic technique, firmly twist a 30-gauge × ½-inch injection needle onto the Luer lock syringe tip (see Figure 3 ). Figure 3: Note: When ready to administer EYLEA, remove the plastic needle shield from the needle. 5. DISLODGE AIR BUBBLES Holding the syringe with the needle pointing up, check the syringe for bubbles. If there are bubbles, gently tap the syringe with your finger until the bubbles rise to the top (see Figure 4 ). Figure 4: 6. EXPEL AIR AND SET THE DOSE To eliminate all bubbles and to expel excess drug, slowly depress the plunger rod to align the plunger dome edge (see Figure 5a ) with the black dosing line on the syringe (equivalent to 50 microliters) (see Figure 5b ). Figure 5a: Figure 5b: 7. The pre-filled syringe is for one-time use in one eye only. After injection any unused product must be discarded. Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 3 Figure 4 Figure 5a Figure 5b 2.3 Preparation for Administration - Vial EYLEA should be inspected visually prior to administration. If particulates, cloudiness, or discoloration are visible, the vial must not be used. The glass vial is for one-time use in one eye only. Use aseptic technique to carry out the following preparation steps: Prepare for intravitreal injection with the following medical devices for single use: a 5-micron sterile filter needle (18-gauge × 1½-inch) a 1-mL sterile Luer lock syringe with marking to measure 0.05 mL for adults or 0.01 mL for pre-term infants with ROP a sterile injection needle (30-gauge × ½-inch) Remove the protective plastic cap from the vial (see Figure 6 ). Figure 6: Clean the top of the vial with an alcohol wipe (see Figure 7 ). Figure 7: Remove the 18-gauge × 1½-inch, 5-micron, filter needle and the 1-mL syringe from their packaging. Attach the filter needle to the syringe by twisting it onto the Luer lock syringe tip (see Figure 8 ). Figure 8: Push the filter needle into the center of the vial stopper until the needle is completely inserted into the vial and the tip touches the bottom or bottom edge of the vial. Using aseptic technique withdraw all of the EYLEA vial contents into the syringe, keeping the vial in an upright position, slightly inclined to ease complete withdrawal. To deter the introduction of air, ensure the bevel of the filter needle is submerged into the liquid. Continue to tilt the vial during withdrawal keeping the bevel of the filter needle submerged in the liquid (see Figure 9a and Figure 9b ). Figure 9a: Figure 9b: Ensure that the plunger rod is drawn sufficiently back when emptying the vial in order to completely empty the filter needle. Remove the filter needle from the syringe and properly dispose of the filter needle. Note : Filter needle is not to be used for intravitreal injection. Remove the 30-gauge × ½-inch injection needle from its packaging and attach the injection needle to the syringe by firmly twisting the injection needle onto the Luer lock syringe tip (see Figure 10 ). Figure 10: When ready to administer EYLEA, remove the plastic needle shield from the needle. Holding the syringe with the needle pointing up, check the syringe for bubbles. If there are bubbles, gently tap the syringe with your finger until the bubbles rise to the top (see Figure 11 ). Figure 11: Administration in Adults: To eliminate all of the bubbles and to expel excess drug, SLOWLY depress the plunger rod so that the plunger edge aligns with the line that marks 0.05 mL on the syringe (see Figure 12a and Figure 12b ). Figure 6 Figure 7 Figure 8 Figure 9a Figure 9b Figure 10 Figure 11 Figure 12a and b 2.4 Injection Procedure for Adults The intravitreal injection procedure should be carried out under controlled aseptic conditions, which include surgical hand disinfection and the use of sterile gloves, a sterile drape, and a sterile eyelid speculum (or equivalent). Adequate anesthesia and a topical broad–spectrum microbicide should be given prior to the injection. Pre-filled syringe : Inject by pressing the plunger carefully and with constant pressure. Do not apply additional pressure once the plunger has reached the bottom of the syringe. A small residual volume may remain in the syringe after a full dose has been injected. This is normal. Do not administer any residual solution observed in the syringe. Immediately following the intravitreal injection, patients should be monitored for elevation in intraocular pressure. Appropriate monitoring may consist of a check for perfusion of the optic nerve head or tonometry. If required, a sterile paracentesis needle should be available. Following intravitreal injection, patients and/or caregivers should be instructed to report any signs and/or symptoms suggestive of endophthalmitis or retinal detachment (e.g., eye pain, redness of the eye, photophobia, blurring of vision) without delay [see Patient Counseling Information (17) ]. Each sterile, pre-filled syringe or vial should only be used for the treatment of a single eye. If the contralateral eye requires treatment, a new sterile, pre-filled syringe or vial should be used and the sterile field, syringe, gloves, drapes, eyelid speculum, filter, and injection needles should be changed before EYLEA is administered to the other eye. After injection, any unused product must be discarded. 2.5 Neovascular (Wet) Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) The recommended dose for EYLEA is 2 mg (0.05 mL of 40 mg/mL solution) administered by intravitreal injection every 4 weeks (approximately every 28 days, monthly) for the first 12 weeks (3 months), followed by 2 mg (0.05 mL of 40 mg/mL solution) via intravitreal injection once every 8 weeks (2 months). Although EYLEA may be dosed as frequently as 2 mg every 4 weeks (approximately every 25 days, monthly), additional efficacy was not demonstrated in most patients when EYLEA was dosed every 4 weeks compared to every 8 weeks [see Clinical Studies (14.1) ] . Some patients may need every 4 week (monthly) dosing after the first 12 weeks (3 months). Although not as effective as the recommended every 8 week dosing regimen, patients may also be treated with one dose every 12 weeks after one year of effective therapy. Patients should be assessed regularly. 2.6 Macular Edema Following Retinal Vein Occlusion (RVO) The recommended dose for EYLEA is 2 mg (0.05 mL of 40 mg/mL solution) administered by intravitreal injection once every 4 weeks (approximately every 25 days, monthly) [see Clinical Studies (14.2) , (14.3) ]. 2.7 Diabetic Macular Edema (DME) The recommended dose for EYLEA is 2 mg (0.05 mL of 40 mg/mL solution) administered by intravitreal injection every 4 weeks (approximately every 28 days, monthly) for the first 5 injections, followed by 2 mg (0.05 mL of 40 mg/mL solution) via intravitreal injection once every 8 weeks (2 months). Although EYLEA may be dosed as frequently as 2 mg every 4 weeks (approximately every 25 days, monthly), additional efficacy was not demonstrated in most patients when EYLEA was dosed every 4 weeks compared to every 8 weeks [see Clinical Studies (14.4) ]. Some patients may need every 4 week (monthly) dosing after the first 20 weeks (5 months). 2.8 Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) The recommended dose for EYLEA is 2 mg (0.05 mL of 40 mg/mL solution) administered by intravitreal injection every 4 weeks (approximately every 28 days, monthly) for the first 5 injections, followed by 2 mg (0.05 mL of 40 mg/mL solution) via intravitreal injection once every 8 weeks (2 months). Although EYLEA may be dosed as frequently as 2 mg every 4 weeks (approximately every 25 days, monthly), additional efficacy was not demonstrated in most patients when EYLEA was dosed every 4 weeks compared to every 8 weeks [see Clinical Studies (14.5) ] . Some patients may need every 4 week (monthly) dosing after the first 20 weeks (5 months). 2.9 Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) Recommended Dosage The recommended dose for EYLEA is 0.4 mg (0.01 mL or 10 microliters of 40 mg/mL solution) administered by intravitreal injection. Treatment is initiated with a single injection per eligible eye and may be given bilaterally on the same day. Injections may be repeated in each eye. The treatment interval between doses injected into the same eye should be at least 10 days [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) and Clinical Studies (14.6) ]. Administration Instructions in Pre-Term Infants with ROP The intravitreal injection procedure should be carried out under controlled aseptic conditions, which include surgical hand disinfection and the use of sterile gloves, a sterile drape, and a sterile eyelid speculum (or equivalent). Adequate anesthesia and a topical broad–spectrum microbicide should be given prior to the injection. Immediately following the intravitreal injection, patients should be monitored for elevation in intraocular pressure. Appropriate monitoring may consist of a check for perfusion of the optic nerve head or tonometry. If required, a sterile paracentesis needle should be available. Following intravitreal injection, patients and/or caregivers should be instructed to report any signs and/or symptoms suggestive of endophthalmitis or retinal detachment (e.g., eye pain, redness of the eye, photophobia, blurring of vision) without delay [see Patient Counseling Information (17) ]. Each sterile vial should only be used for the treatment of a single eye. Do not use the EYLEA pre-filled syringe for the treatment of ROP. If the contralateral eye requires treatment, a new sterile vial should be used and the sterile field, syringe, gloves, drapes, eyelid speculum, filter, and injection needles should be changed before EYLEA is administered to the other eye. Follow steps 1-10 listed in 2.3 Preparation for Administration – Vial. 11 . To eliminate all of the bubbles and to expel excess drug, SLOWLY depress the plunger rod so that the plunger edge aligns with the line that marks 0.01 mL on the syringe (see Figure 13a and Figure 13b ). For the treatment of ROP, the injection needle should be inserted into the eye 1 mm from the limbus with the needle angled to avoid the lens and to avoid the retina. After injection, any unused product must be discarded. Figure 13a and b

Ocular or periocular infection ( 4.1 ) Active intraocular inflammation ( 4.2 ) Hypersensitivity ( 4.3 ) 4.1 Ocular or Periocular Infections EYLEA is contraindicated in patients with ocular or periocular infections. 4.2 Active Intraocular Inflammation EYLEA is contraindicated in patients with active intraocular inflammation. 4.3 Hypersensitivity EYLEA is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to aflibercept or any of the excipients in EYLEA. Hypersensitivity reactions may manifest as rash, pruritus, urticaria, severe anaphylactic/anaphylactoid reactions, or severe intraocular inflammation.

The following potentially serious adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling: Hypersensitivity [see Contraindications (4.3) ] Endophthalmitis, Retinal Detachments, and Retinal Vasculitis with or without Occlusion [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] Increase in intraocular pressure [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] Thromboembolic events [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4) ] The most common adverse reactions (≥5%) reported in patients receiving EYLEA were conjunctival hemorrhage, eye pain, cataract, vitreous detachment, vitreous floaters, and intraocular pressure increased. ( 6.1 ) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Regeneron at 1-855-395-3248 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 other clinical trials of the same or another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice. A total of 2980 adult patients treated with EYLEA constituted the safety population in eight phase 3 studies. Among those, 2379 patients were treated with the recommended dose of 2 mg. Serious adverse reactions related to the injection procedure have occurred in <0.1% of intravitreal injections with EYLEA including endophthalmitis and retinal detachment. The most common adverse reactions (≥5%) reported in patients receiving EYLEA were conjunctival hemorrhage, eye pain, cataract, vitreous detachment, vitreous floaters, and intraocular pressure increased. Neovascular (Wet) Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) The data described below reflect exposure to EYLEA in 1824 patients with wet AMD, including 1223 patients treated with the 2-mg dose, in 2 double-masked, controlled clinical studies (VIEW1 and VIEW2) for 24 months (with active control in year 1) [see Clinical Studies (14.1) ]. Safety data observed in the EYLEA group in a 52-week, double-masked, Phase 2 study were consistent with these results.
