Klisyri Drug Information

KLISYRI is indicated for the topical field treatment of actinic keratosis on the face or scalp. KLISYRI is a microtubule inhibitor indicated for the topical treatment of actinic keratosis of the face or scalp.

For topical use only; not for oral or ophthalmic use. Wash hands immediately with soap and water after application. Avoid washing and touching the treated area for approximately 8 hours after application of KLISYRI.

Following this time, the area may be washed with a mild soap. Avoid transfer of KLISYRI to the periocular area. Avoid application near and around the mouth and lips.

Apply KLISYRI to the treatment field on the face or scalp once daily for 5 consecutive days using 1 unit-dose packet per application.

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. Two double-blind, vehicle-controlled clinical trials were conducted in 702 adult subjects with actinic keratosis on the face or scalp. Subjects were randomized 1:1 to KLISYRI or vehicle.

Treatment groups were comparable across all demographics and baseline characteristics, including AK lesion count and distribution on the face or scalp. In the controlled trials, local skin reactions (LSRs) were collected independent of adverse events. Local skin reactions including erythema, flaking/scaling, crusting, swelling, vesiculation/pustulation, erosions/ulcerations were assessed by the investigators using a grading scale of 0 = absent, 1 = mild (slightly, barely perceptible), 2 = moderate (distinct presence), and 3 = severe (marked, intense).

The percentages of subjects with the maximal post-baseline grades for each local skin reaction (LSR) greater than baseline by treatment group are provided in Table 1. LSRs were mostly mild to moderate in severity ( Table 1 ). No subject withdrew from the trials due to adverse reactions.

In a multicenter, open-label safety trial of 105 subjects where KLISYRI was applied to a treatment field of 100 cm 2 on the face or balding scalp, the results were comparable to the safety profile established by the controlled trials in subjects with a 25 cm 2 treatment area. Dermal Safety Studies Clinical studies in healthy subjects demonstrated KLISYRI did not cause contact sensitization (261 subjects), phototoxic skin reactions (31 subjects), or photoallergic skin reactions (64 subjects).

Pregnancy Risk Summary There are no available data with KLISYRI use in pregnant women to evaluate for a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. In animal reproduction studies, oral administration of tirbanibulin to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis resulted in an increased incidence of fetal deaths and malformations at a systemic exposure that was at least 19 times the exposure associated with the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD). Oral administration of tirbanibulin to pregnant rabbits during the period of organogenesis resulted in reduced mean fetal weight and size at a systemic exposure that was 41 times the exposure associated with the MRHD ( see Data ).

The 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 risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is respectively.

Data Animal Data Tirbanibulin induced fetal deaths and external, visceral, and skeletal malformations when administered orally to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis at doses greater than or equal to 1.25 mg/kg/day, which resulted in systemic exposures at least 19 times the exposure associated with the MRHD on an Area Under the Curve (AUC) comparison basis. Tirbanibulin had no apparent effects on fetal development in rats at a dose of 0.5 mg/kg/day, which resulted in systemic exposures 5 times the exposure associated with the MRHD. Tirbanibulin reduced mean fetal weight and size (crown-rump length) when administered orally to pregnant rabbits during the period of organogenesis at a dose of 3 mg/kg/day, which resulted in a systemic exposure 41 times the exposure associated with the MRHD on an AUC comparison basis.

Tirbanibulin was assessed for effects on peri- and post-natal development of rats in a study that involved oral administration to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis through lactation at dosages up to 1.25 mg/kg/day. These dosages resulted in systemic exposures up to 19 times the exposure associated with the MRHD on an AUC comparison basis. No adverse effects on maternal function or developmental, neurobehavioral, or reproductive performance of offspring were observed.

Pediatric Use The safety and effectiveness of KLISYRI for actinic keratosis in subjects less than 18 years of age have not been established. Actinic keratosis is not a condition generally seen within the pediatric population.
