PRALUENT

Alirocumab is a human monoclonal antibody (IgG1 isotype) that targets proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 (PCSK9). Alirocumab is a PCSK9 inhibitor produced by recombinant DNA technology in Chinese Hamster Ovary cell suspension culture. Alirocumab consists of two disulfide-linked human heavy chains, each covalently linked through a disulfide bond to a human kappa light chain. A single N-linked glycosylation site is located in each heavy chain within the CH2 domain of the Fc constant region of the molecule. The variable domains of the heavy and light chains combine to form the PCSK9 binding site within the antibody. Alirocumab has an approximate molecular weight of 146 kDa. PRALUENT is a sterile, preservative-free, clear, colorless to pale yellow solution for subcutaneous use. PRALUENT 75 mg/mL or 150 mg/mL solution for subcutaneous injection in a single-dose pre-filled pen is supplied in a siliconized 1 mL Type-1 clear glass syringe. Each 75 mg/mL pre-filled pen contains 75 mg alirocumab, histidine (8 mM), polysorbate 20 (0.1 mg), sucrose (100 mg), and Water for Injection USP, to pH 6.0. Each 150 mg/mL pre-filled pen contains 150 mg alirocumab, histidine (6 mM), polysorbate 20 (0.1 mg), sucrose (100 mg), and Water for Injection USP, to pH 6.0.

In adults with hypercholesterolemia, including HeFH ( 2.1 ): The recommended starting dosage of PRALUENT is either 75 mg once every 2 weeks or 300 mg once every 4 weeks administered subcutaneously. For patients receiving PRALUENT 300 mg every 4 weeks, measure LDL-C just prior to the next scheduled dosage, because LDL-C can vary between dosages in some patients. If the LDL-C response is inadequate, the dosage may be adjusted 150 mg subcutaneously every 2 weeks. In adults with HeFH undergoing LDL apheresis or in adults with HoFH ( 2.1 ): The recommended dosage of PRALUENT is 150 mg once every 2 weeks administered subcutaneously. PRALUENT can be administered without regard to the timing of LDL apheresis. In pediatric patients with HeFH ( 2.2 ): The recommended dosage of PRALUENT for patients with a body weight less than 50 kg is 150 mg once every 4 weeks administered subcutaneously. The recommended dosage of PRALUENT for patients with a body weight of 50 kg or more is 300 mg once every 4 weeks administered subcutaneously. If the LDL-C response is inadequate, the dosage may be adjusted for patients with a body weight less than 50 kg to 75 mg subcutaneously once every 2 weeks or for patients with a body weight of 50 kg or more to 150 mg subcutaneously once every 2 weeks. Assess LDL-C when clinically appropriate. The LDL-lowering effect of PRALUENT may be measured as early as 4 weeks after initiation. ( 2.1 ) Administer PRALUENT subcutaneously into areas of the thigh, abdomen, or upper arm that are not tender, bruised, red, or indurated. Rotate injection sites for each administration. ( 2.4 ) To administer the 300 mg dosage, give two 150 mg PRALUENT injections consecutively at two different injection sites.

The LDL-lowering effect of PRALUENT may be measured as early as 4 weeks after initiation. 2.3 Missed Doses If a dose is missed: Within 7 days from the missed dose, instruct the patient to administer PRALUENT and resume the patient's original schedule. More than 7 days after the missed dose: For every 2-week dosage, instruct the patient to wait until the next dose on the original schedule. For every 4-week dosage, instruct the patient to administer the dose and start a new schedule based on this date. 2.4 Important Administration Instructions Train patients and/or caregivers on how to prepare and administer PRALUENT, according to the Instructions for Use and instruct them to read and follow the Instructions for Use each time they use PRALUENT. In children aged 12 to 17 years, it is recommended that PRALUENT be given by or under the supervision of an adult. In children aged 8 to 11 years, PRALUENT should be given by a caregiver. Prior to use, allow PRALUENT to warm to room temperature for 30 to 40 minutes if PRALUENT has been refrigerated [see How Supplied/Storage and Handling (16) ]. Visually inspect PRALUENT prior to administration. PRALUENT is a clear, colorless to pale yellow solution. Do not use if the solution is cloudy, discolored, or contains particles. Administer PRALUENT subcutaneously into areas of the thigh, abdomen, or upper arm that are not tender, bruised, red, or indurated. Rotate injection sites for each administration. It may take up to 20 seconds to inject PRALUENT. To administer the 300 mg dose, give two 150 mg PRALUENT injections consecutively at two different injection sites.

PRALUENT is contraindicated in patients with a history of a serious hypersensitivity reaction to alirocumab or any of the excipients in PRALUENT. Hypersensitivity vasculitis, angioedema, and hypersensitivity reactions requiring hospitalization have occurred [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ]. History of a serious hypersensitivity reaction to alirocumab or any of the excipients in PRALUENT. ( 4 )

The following adverse reactions are also discussed in the other sections of the labeling: Hypersensitivity Reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] Common (>5% of patients treated with PRALUENT and more frequently than placebo) adverse reactions in adults with: Primary hypercholesterolemia : injection site reactions, and influenza. ( 6 ) Established CV disease: myalgia.

Adverse Reactions in Adults with Hypercholesterolemia The data in Table 1 are derived from 9 primary hypercholesterolemia placebo-controlled trials that included 2,476 adult patients treated with PRALUENT 75 mg and/or 150 mg every 2 weeks, including 2,135 exposed for 6 months and 1,999 exposed for more than 1 year (median treatment duration of 65 weeks). The mean age of the population was 59 years, 40% of the population were female, 90% were White, 4% were Black or African American, 3% were Asian, and 3% other races; 6% identified as Hispanic or Latino ethnicity. Adverse reactions reported in at least 2% of PRALUENT-treated patients, and more frequently than in placebo-treated patients, are shown in Table 1. Table 1: Adverse Reactions Occurring in >2% of PRALUENT-Treated Adult Patients and ≥1% More Frequently Than with Placebo Adverse Reactions Placebo (N=1,276) % PRALUENT 75 mg every 2 weeks and 150 mg every 2 weeks combined (N=2,476) % Injection site reactions Includes erythema/redness, itching, swelling, pain/tenderness 5 7 Influenza 5 6 Diarrhea 4 5 Myalgia 3 4 Muscle spasms 2 3 Contusion 1 2 Adverse reactions led to discontinuation of treatment in 5.3% of patients treated with PRALUENT and 5.1% of patients treated with placebo. The most common adverse reactions leading to treatment discontinuation in patients treated with PRALUENT were allergic reactions (0.6% versus 0.2% for PRALUENT and placebo, respectively) and elevated liver enzymes (0.3% versus <0.1%). In an analysis of ezetimibe-controlled trials in which 864 patients were exposed to PRALUENT for a median of 27 weeks and 618 patients were exposed to ezetimibe for a median of 24 weeks, the types and frequencies of common adverse reactions were similar to those listed above. Adverse Reactions in a Cardiovascular Outcomes Trial in Adults In a CV outcomes trial in which 9,451 patients were exposed to PRALUENT for a median of 31 months and 9,443 patients were exposed to placebo for a median of 32 months, common adverse reactions (greater than 5% of patients treated with PRALUENT and occurring more frequently than placebo) included myalgia (6% PRALUENT, 5% placebo). Adverse Reactions in Pediatric Patients with HeFH In a 24-week placebo-controlled clinical trial in which 101 pediatric patients aged 8 to 17 years with HeFH were exposed to PRALUENT and 52 pediatric patients with HeFH were exposed to placebo [see Clinical Studies (14.3) ], the safety profile of PRALUENT observed in this population was consistent with the safety profile observed in adults with HeFH. Other Adverse Reactions Local Injection Site Reactions In a pool of placebo-controlled trials evaluating PRALUENT 75 mg and/or 150 mg administered every 2 weeks in adults, local injection site reactions including erythema/redness, itching, swelling, and pain/tenderness were reported more frequently in patients treated with PRALUENT (7.2% versus 5.1% for PRALUENT and placebo, respectively). Few patients discontinued treatment because of these reactions (0.2% versus 0.4% for PRALUENT and placebo, respectively), but patients receiving PRALUENT had a greater number of injection site reactions, had more reports of associated symptoms, and had reactions of longer average duration than patients receiving placebo. In a 48-week placebo-controlled trial evaluating PRALUENT 300 mg every 4 weeks and 75 mg every 2 weeks in adults, in which all patients received an injection of drug or placebo every 2 weeks, local injection site reactions were reported more frequently in patients treated with PRALUENT 300 mg every 4 weeks as compared to those receiving PRALUENT 75 mg every 2 weeks or placebo (16.6%, 9.6%, and 7.9%, respectively). Three patients (0.7%) treated with PRALUENT 300 mg every 4 weeks discontinued treatment due to local injection site reactions versus no patients (0%) in the other 2 treatment groups. In a CV outcomes trial in adults, local injection site reactions were reported in 3.8% of patients treated with PRALUENT versus 2.1% patients treated with placebo, and led to permanent discontinuation in 26 patients (0.3%) versus 3 patients (<0.1%), respectively. In the trial of pediatric patients with HeFH, local injection site reactions were reported in 5% of patients treated with PRALUENT versus 0% patients treated with placebo; no patients discontinued treatment due to injection site reactions. Hypersensitivity Reactions in Adults Hypersensitivity reactions were reported more frequently in adult patients treated with PRALUENT than in those treated with placebo (8.6% versus 7.8%). The most common hypersensitivity reaction was pruritus (1.1% versus 0.4% for PRALUENT and placebo, respectively). The proportion of patients who discontinued treatment due to allergic reactions was higher among those treated with PRALUENT (0.6% versus 0.2%). Serious allergic reactions, such as hypersensitivity, nummular eczema, and hypersensitivity vasculitis were reported in patients using PRALUENT in controlled clinical trials. Liver Enzyme Abnormalities in Adults In the hypercholesterolemia trials in adults, liver-related disorders (primarily related to abnormalities in liver enzymes) were reported in 2.5% of patients treated with PRALUENT and 1.8% of patients treated with placebo, leading to treatment discontinuation in 0.4% and 0.2% of patients, respectively. Increases in serum transaminases to greater than 3 times the upper limit of normal occurred in 1.7% of patients treated with PRALUENT and 1.4% of patients treated with placebo. 6.2 Postmarketing Experience The following adverse reactions have been reported during post-approval use of PRALUENT. 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. Hypersensitivity reactions: Angioedema Influenza-like illness
