Trelegy Ellipta Drug Information

• For oral inhalation only. ( 2.1 )
• Maintenance treatment of COPD: 1 actuation of TRELEGY ELLIPTA 100/62.5/25 mcg once daily administered by oral inhalation. ( 2.2 )
• Maintenance treatment of asthma: 1 actuation of TRELEGY ELLIPTA 100/62.5/25 mcg or TRELEGY ELLIPTA 200/62.5/25 mcg once daily administered by oral inhalation. ( 2.3 ) 2.1 Dosage and Administration Overview
• Administer 1 actuation of TRELEGY ELLIPTA once daily by oral inhalation.
• After inhalation, rinse the mouth with water without swallowing to help reduce the risk of oropharyngeal candidiasis.
• TRELEGY ELLIPTA should be used at the same time every day. Do not use TRELEGY ELLIPTA more than 1 time every 24 hours.
• No dosage adjustment is required for geriatric patients, patients with renal impairment, or patients with moderate hepatic impairment [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] . 2.2 Recommended Dosage for Maintenance Treatment of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease The recommended dosage of TRELEGY ELLIPTA for maintenance treatment of COPD is fluticasone furoate 100 mcg, umeclidinium 62.5 mcg, and vilanterol 25 mcg (1 actuation of TRELEGY ELLIPTA 100/62.5/25 mcg) once daily by oral inhalation.
• TRELEGY ELLIPTA 100/62.5/25 mcg is the only strength indicated for the treatment of COPD.
• If shortness of breath occurs in the period between doses, an inhaled, short-acting beta 2 -agonist (rescue medicine, e.g., albuterol) should be used for immediate relief. 2.3 Recommended Dosage for Maintenance Treatment of Asthma The recommended starting dosage of TRELEGY ELLIPTA for maintenance treatment of asthma is fluticasone furoate 100 mcg, umeclidinium 62.5 mcg, and vilanterol 25 mcg (1 actuation of TRELEGY ELLIPTA 100/62.5/25 mcg) or fluticasone furoate 200 mcg, umeclidinium 62.5 mcg, and vilanterol 25 mcg (1 actuation of TRELEGY ELLIPTA 200/62.5/25 mcg) once daily, by oral inhalation.
• When choosing the starting dosage strength of TRELEGY ELLIPTA, consider the patients’ disease severity; their previous asthma therapy, including the inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) dosage; as well as the patients’ current control of asthma symptoms and risk of future exacerbation.
• The maximum recommended dosage is 1 inhalation of TRELEGY ELLIPTA 200/62.5/25 mcg once daily.
• For patients who do not respond adequately to TRELEGY ELLIPTA 100/62.5/25 mcg once daily, increasing the dose to TRELEGY ELLIPTA 200/62.5/25 mcg once daily may provide additional improvement in asthma control. For patients who do not respond adequately to TRELEGY ELLIPTA 200/62.5/25 mcg once daily, re-evaluate and consider other therapeutic regimens and additional therapeutic options.
• If asthma symptoms arise in the period between doses, an inhaled, short-acting beta2-agonist (rescue medicine, e.g., albuterol) should be used for immediate relief.

Trials 1 and 2 Two 12-week treatment trials (Trial 1 and Trial 2) evaluated the coadministration of umeclidinium + fluticasone furoate/vilanterol, the components of TRELEGY ELLIPTA, compared with placebo + fluticasone furoate/vilanterol. A total of 824 subjects with COPD across two 12-week, randomized, double-blind clinical trials received at least 1 dose of umeclidinium 62.5 mcg + fluticasone furoate/vilanterol 100/25 mcg or placebo + fluticasone furoate/vilanterol 100/25 mcg administered once daily (mean age: 64 years, 92% White, 66% male across all treatments) [see Clinical Studies ( 14.1 )] . The incidence of adverse reactions associated with the use of umeclidinium 62.5 mcg + fluticasone furoate/vilanterol 100/25 mcg presented in Table 2 is based on the two 12-week trials. Table 2.

A total of 10,355 subjects with COPD with a history of moderate or severe exacerbations within the prior 12 months were randomized (2:2:1) to receive TRELEGY ELLIPTA 100/62.5/25 mcg, fluticasone furoate/vilanterol, or umeclidinium/vilanterol administered once daily in a double‑blind clinical trial (mean age: 65 years, 77% White, 66% male across all treatments) [see Clinical Studies ( 14.1 )] . The incidence of adverse reactions in the long-term trial were consistent with those in Trials 1 and 2. However, in addition to the adverse reactions shown in Table 2 , adverse reactions occurring in ≥1% of the subjects treated with TRELEGY ELLIPTA 100/62.5/25 mcg (n = 4,151) for up to 52 weeks also included upper respiratory tract infection, pneumonia [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.5 )] , bronchitis, oral candidiasis [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.4 )] , arthralgia, influenza, sinusitis, pharyngitis, rhinitis, constipation, urinary tract infection, and dysphonia. 6.2 Clinical Trials Experience in Asthma The safety of TRELEGY ELLIPTA in asthma is based on a randomized, double-blind, parallel‑group, active-controlled trial of 24 to 52 weeks’ duration (Trial 4) that enrolled 2,436 adult subjects inadequately controlled on their current treatment of combination therapy (ICS plus a LABA) [see Clinical Studies ( 14.2 )] . In the overall population, 62% were female and 80% were White; mean age was 53 years. The incidence of adverse reactions occurring in ≥1% of the subjects treated with TRELEGY ELLIPTA 100/62.5/25 mcg or TRELEGY ELLIPTA 200/62.5/25 mcg is shown in Table 3 . Adverse reactions observed for the groups treated with TRELEGY ELLIPTA were similar to those observed for the fluticasone furoate/vilanterol arms. Table 3.

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. These events have been chosen for inclusion due to either their seriousness, frequency of reporting, or causal connection to TRELEGY ELLIPTA or a combination of these factors.

• Strong cytochrome P450 3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole): Use with caution. May cause systemic corticosteroid and cardiovascular effects. ( 7.1 )
• Monoamine oxidase inhibitors and tricyclic antidepressants: Use with extreme caution. May potentiate effect of vilanterol on cardiovascular system. ( 7.2 )
• Beta-blockers: Use with caution. May block bronchodilatory effects of beta-agonists and produce severe bronchospasm. ( 7.3 )
• Diuretics: Use with caution. Electrocardiographic changes and/or hypokalemia associated with non–potassium-sparing diuretics may worsen with concomitant beta-agonists. ( 7.4 )
• Anticholinergics: May interact additively with concomitantly used anticholinergic medications. Avoid administration of TRELEGY ELLIPTA with other anticholinergic-containing drugs. ( 7.5 ) 7.1 Inhibitors of Cytochrome P450 3A4 Fluticasone furoate and vilanterol are substrates of CYP3A4. Concomitant administration of the strong CYP3A4 inhibitor ketoconazole increases the systemic exposure to fluticasone furoate and vilanterol. Caution should be exercised when considering the coadministration of TRELEGY ELLIPTA with ketoconazole and other known strong CYP3A4 inhibitors [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.9 ), Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] . 7.2 Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors, Tricyclic Antidepressants, and QTc Prolonging Drugs Vilanterol, like other beta 2 -agonists, should be administered with extreme caution to patients being treated with monoamine oxidase inhibitors, tricyclic antidepressants, or drugs known to prolong the QTc interval or within 2 weeks of discontinuation of such agents, because the effect of adrenergic agonists on the cardiovascular system may be potentiated by these agents. Drugs that are known to prolong the QTc interval have an increased risk of ventricular arrhythmias. 7.3 Beta-adrenergic Receptor Blocking Agents Beta-blockers not only block the pulmonary effect of beta-agonists, such as vilanterol, but may also produce severe bronchospasm in patients with COPD or asthma. Therefore, patients with COPD or asthma should not normally be treated with beta-blockers. However, under certain circumstances, there may be no acceptable alternatives to the use of beta-adrenergic blocking agents for these patients; cardioselective beta-blockers could be considered, although they should be administered with caution. 7.4 Non–Potassium-Sparing Diuretics The electrocardiographic changes and/or hypokalemia that may result from the administration of non–potassium-sparing diuretics (such as loop or thiazide diuretics) can be acutely worsened by beta-agonists, especially when the recommended dose of the beta-agonist is exceeded. Although the clinical significance of these effects is not known, caution is advised in the coadministration of beta-agonists with non–potassium-sparing diuretics. 7.5 Anticholinergics There is potential for an additive interaction with concomitantly used anticholinergic medicines. Therefore, avoid coadministration of TRELEGY ELLIPTA with other anticholinergic-containing drugs as this may lead to an increase in anticholinergic adverse effects [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.14 , 5.15 )] .

Pregnancy Risk Summary There are insufficient data on the use of TRELEGY ELLIPTA or its individual components, fluticasone furoate, umeclidinium, and vilanterol, in pregnant women to inform a drug‑associated risk. (See Clinical Considerations.) In an animal reproduction study, fluticasone furoate and vilanterol administered by inhalation alone or in combination to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis produced no fetal structural abnormalities. The highest fluticasone furoate and vilanterol doses in this study were approximately 4.5 and 40 times the maximum recommended human daily inhalation doses (MRHDID) of 200 and 25 mcg, respectively in adults. (See Data.) Umeclidinium administered via inhalation or subcutaneously to pregnant rats and rabbits was not associated with adverse effect on embryofetal development at exposures approximately 40 and 150 times, respectively, the human exposure at the MRHDID of 62.5 mcg. (See Data.) The estimated risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated populations is unknown. In the U.S. general population, the estimated risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively.

Clinical Considerations Disease-Associated Maternal and/or Embryofetal Risk: In women with poorly or moderately controlled asthma, there is an increased risk of several perinatal outcomes such as pre-eclampsia in the mother and prematurity, low birth weight, and small for gestational age in the neonate. Pregnant women should be closely monitored and medication adjusted as necessary to maintain optimal control of asthma. Labor or Delivery: TRELEGY ELLIPTA should be used during late gestation and labor only if the potential benefit justifies the potential for risks related to beta-agonists interfering with uterine contractility.

Data Animal Data: The combination of fluticasone furoate, umeclidinium, and vilanterol has not been studied in pregnant animals. Studies in pregnant animals have been conducted with fluticasone furoate and vilanterol in combination and individually with fluticasone furoate, umeclidinium, or vilanterol. Fluticasone Furoate and Vilanterol: In an embryofetal developmental study, pregnant rats received fluticasone furoate and vilanterol during the period of organogenesis at doses up to approximately 4.5 and 40 times the MRHDID of 200 and 25 mcg, respectively, alone or in combination (on a mcg/m 2 basis at inhalation doses up to approximately 95 mcg/kg/day). No evidence of structural abnormalities was observed.

Fluticasone Furoate: In 2 separate embryofetal developmental studies, pregnant rats and rabbits received fluticasone furoate during the period of organogenesis at doses up to approximately 4.5 times and equal to, respectively, the MRHDID of 200 mcg (on a mcg/m 2 basis at maternal inhalation doses up to 91 and 8 mcg/kg/day, respectively). No evidence of structural abnormalities in fetuses was observed in either species. In a perinatal and postnatal developmental study in rats, dams received fluticasone furoate during late gestation and lactation periods at doses up to approximately 1.5 times the MRHDID of 200 mcg (on a mcg/m 2 basis at maternal inhalation doses up to 27 mcg/kg/day). No evidence of effects on offspring development was observed. Umeclidinium: In 2 separate embryofetal developmental studies, pregnant rats and rabbits received umeclidinium during the period of organogenesis at doses up to approximately 40 and 150 times, respectively the MRHDID of 62.5 mcg (on an AUC basis at maternal inhalation doses up to 278 mcg/kg/day in rats and at maternal subcutaneous doses up to 180 mcg/kg/day in rabbits). No evidence of teratogenic effects was observed in either species.

In a perinatal and postnatal developmental study in rats, dams received umeclidinium during late gestation and lactation periods at doses up to approximately 20 times the MRHDID (on an AUC basis at maternal subcutaneous doses up to 60 mcg/kg/day). No evidence of effects on offspring development was observed. Vilanterol: In 2 separate embryofetal developmental studies, pregnant rats and rabbits received vilanterol during the period of organogenesis at doses up to approximately 13,000 and 760 times, respectively, the MRHDID (on a mcg/m 2 basis at maternal inhalation doses up to 33,700 mcg/kg/day in rats and on an AUC basis at maternal inhaled doses up to 5,740 mcg/kg/day in rabbits). No evidence of structural abnormalities was observed at any dose in rats or in rabbits up to approximately 120 times the MRHDID (on an AUC basis at maternal doses up to 591 mcg/kg/day). However, fetal skeletal variations were observed in rabbits at approximately 760 or 840 times the MRHDID (on an AUC basis at maternal inhaled or subcutaneous doses of 5,740 or 300 mcg/kg/day, respectively). The skeletal variations included decreased or absent ossification in cervical vertebral centrum and metacarpals. In a perinatal and postnatal developmental study in rats, dams received vilanterol during late gestation and the lactation periods at doses up to approximately 3,900 times the MRHDID (on a mcg/m 2 basis at maternal oral doses up to 10,000 mcg/kg/day). No evidence of effects in offspring development was observed.

Pediatric Use The safety and effectiveness of TRELEGY ELLIPTA have not been established in pediatric patients (aged 17 years and younger). TRELEGY ELLIPTA is not indicated for use in pediatric patients. Effects on Growth Orally inhaled corticosteroids may cause a reduction in growth velocity when administered to children and adolescents. Controlled clinical trials have shown that ICS may cause a reduction in growth in children.

In these trials, the mean reduction in growth velocity was approximately 1 cm/year (range: 0.3 to 1.8 cm/year) and appears to be related to dose and duration of exposure. This effect has been observed in the absence of laboratory evidence of HPA axis suppression, suggesting that growth velocity is a more sensitive indicator of systemic corticosteroid exposure in children than some commonly used tests of HPA axis function. The long-term effects of this reduction in growth velocity associated with orally inhaled corticosteroids, including the impact on final adult height, are unknown.

A randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, multicenter, 1-year, placebo-controlled trial evaluated the effect of once-daily treatment with 110 mcg of fluticasone furoate in the nasal spray formulation on growth velocity assessed by stadiometry. The subjects were 474 prepubescent children (girls aged 5 to 7.5 years and boys aged 5 to 8.5 years). Mean growth velocity over the 52-week treatment period was lower in the subjects receiving fluticasone furoate nasal spray (5.19 cm/year) compared with placebo (5.46 cm/year). The mean reduction in growth velocity was 0.27 cm/year (95% CI: 0.06, 0.48) .

• is contraindicated in the following conditions:
• Primary treatment of status asthmaticus or other acute episodes of COPD or asthma where intensive measures are required [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 )] .
• Severe hypersensitivity to milk proteins or demonstrated hypersensitivity to fluticasone furoate, umeclidinium, vilanterol, or any of the excipients [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.11 ), Description ( 11 )] .
• Primary treatment of status asthmaticus or acute episodes of COPD or asthma requiring intensive measures. ( 4 )

contains fluticasone furoate, umeclidinium, and vilanterol; therefore, the risks associated with overdosage for the individual components described below apply to TRELEGY ELLIPTA. Treatment of overdosage consists of discontinuation of TRELEGY ELLIPTA together with institution of appropriate symptomatic and/or supportive therapy. The judicious use of a cardioselective beta-receptor blocker may be considered, bearing in mind that such medicine can produce bronchospasm. Cardiac monitoring is recommended in cases of overdosage.

Fluticasone Furoate Because of low systemic bioavailability (15.2%) and an absence of acute drug-related systemic findings in clinical trials, overdosage of fluticasone furoate is unlikely to require any treatment other than observation. If used at excessive doses for prolonged periods, systemic effects such as hypercorticism may occur . Umeclidinium High doses of umeclidinium may lead to anticholinergic signs and symptoms. Vilanterol The expected signs and symptoms with overdosage of vilanterol are those of excessive beta‑adrenergic stimulation and/or occurrence or exaggeration of any of the signs and symptoms of beta-adrenergic stimulation (e.g., seizures, angina, hypertension or hypotension, tachycardia with rates up to 200 beats/min, arrhythmias, nervousness, headache, tremor, muscle cramps, dry mouth, palpitation, nausea, dizziness, fatigue, malaise, insomnia, hyperglycemia, hypokalemia, metabolic acidosis). As with all inhaled sympathomimetic medicines, cardiac arrest and even death may be associated with an overdose of vilanterol.
