Yorvipath Drug Information

is indicated for the treatment of hypoparathyroidism in adults. YORVIPATH is a parathyroid hormone analog (PTH(1-34)) indicated for the treatment of hypoparathyroidism in adults. Limitations of Use : Not studied for acute post-surgical hypoparathyroidism.

Titration scheme only evaluated in adults who first achieved an albumin-corrected serum calcium of at least 7.8 mg/dL using calcium and active vitamin D treatment. Limitations of Use YORVIPATH was not studied for acute post-surgical hypoparathyroidism. YORVIPATH's titration scheme was only evaluated in adults who first achieved an albumin-corrected serum calcium of at least 7.8 mg/dL using calcium and active vitamin D treatment .

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 practice. The phase 3 trial included 82 subjects with hypoparathyroidism with a median YORVIPATH treatment duration of 182 days (Study 1) . Adverse reactions associated with YORVIPATH in Study 1 during the 26-week blinded period (incidence ≥5% and occurring ≥2% more frequently than placebo) are shown in Table 3.

Injection site reactions Injection site reactions includes the preferred terms injection site bruising, injection site erythema, injection site rash, and injection site reaction. 24 1 Vasodilatory signs and symptoms Vasodilatory signs and symptoms includes the preferred terms blood pressure orthostatic decreased, dizziness, dizziness postural, orthostatic hypotension, palpitations, postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, presyncope, syncope, and vertigo. 17 0 Headache 13 2 Diarrhea 6 1 Back pain Back pain includes the preferred terms back pain, flank pain, and spinal pain. 5 0 Hypercalcemia 5 0 Oropharyngeal pain 4 0 Description of Selected Adverse Reactions Hypercalcemia Table 4 summarizes the number of subjects who had at least one serum calcium measurement greater than the upper limit of the reference range at a post-baseline visit in Study 1. The incidence of hypercalcemia was greater in subjects treated with YORVIPATH. Symptomatic hypercalcemia was reported in 8% of subjects treated with YORVIPATH, and all occurred within the first 3 months after initiation of YORVIPATH.

Drugs Affected by Serum Calcium Digoxin

YORVIPATH increases serum calcium, therefore, concomitant use with digoxin (which has a narrow therapeutic index) may predispose patients to digitalis toxicity if hypercalcemia develops. Digoxin efficacy may be reduced if hypocalcemia is present. When YORVIPATH is used concomitantly with digoxin, measure serum calcium and digoxin levels, and monitor for signs and symptoms of digoxin toxicity.

Adjustment of the digoxin and/or YORVIPATH dose may be needed.

Drugs Known to Affect Serum Calcium Drugs that affect serum calcium may

alter the therapeutic response to YORVIPATH. Measure serum calcium more frequently when YORVIPATH is used concomitantly with these drugs, particularly after these drugs are initiated, discontinued, or dose-adjusted.

Pregnancy Risk Summary Available data from reports of pregnancies in the clinical trials from drug development are insufficient to identify a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or other adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. There are disease-associated risks to the mother and fetus related to hypocalcemia in pregnancy (see Clinical Considerations ). In animal reproduction studies, administration of palopegteriparatide to pregnant rats and rabbits during the period of organogenesis resulted in no significant adverse effects up to doses 16- and 13-fold, respectively, the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD), based on PTH(1-34) and active metabolite PTH(1-33) exposure by area under the curve (AUC) (see Data ). The background risk of birth defects and miscarriages 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 miscarriages in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively. If YORVIPATH is administered during pregnancy, or if a patient becomes pregnant while receiving YORVIPATH, healthcare providers should report YORVIPATH exposure by calling1-877-229-2184. Clinical Considerations Disease-Associated Maternal and Embryo/Fetal Risk Maternal hypocalcemia can result in an increased rate of spontaneous abortion, premature and dysfunctional labor, and possibly preeclampsia. Infants born to mothers with hypocalcemia can have associated fetal and neonatal hyperparathyroidism, which may cause fetal and neonatal skeletal demineralization, subperiosteal bone resorption, osteitis fibrosa cystica, and neonatal seizures.

Infants born to mothers with hypocalcemia should be monitored for signs of hypocalcemia or hypercalcemia, including neuromuscular irritability (e.g., myotonic jerks, seizures), apnea, cyanosis, and cardiac arrhythmias. Data Animal Data In an embryo-fetal developmental toxicity study in rats, palopegteriparatide was administered subcutaneously during the period of organogenesis (gestation days (GD) 6 to 17) at doses of 2, 8, and 30 mcg/kg/day. In pregnant rats, there was no evidence of embryo-lethality, fetotoxicity, or fetal malformations up to the highest dose tested corresponding to 16-fold the MRHD, based on PTH(1-34) and active metabolite PTH(1-33) exposure by AUC. In an embryo-fetal developmental toxicity study in rabbits, palopegteriparatide was administered subcutaneously to pregnant female rabbits during the period of organogenesis (GD 7 to 19) at doses of 1, 3, and 6 mcg/kg/day.

There was no evidence of any palopegteriparatide-related embryo-lethality, fetotoxicity, or fetal malformations at any dose level up to 13-fold the MRHD, based on PTH(1-34) exposure by AUC.

Pediatric Use The safety and effectiveness of YORVIPATH have not been established in pediatric patients.

is contraindicated in patients with severe hypersensitivity to palopegteriparatide or to any of its excipients. Hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, angioedema, and urticaria, have been observed with parathyroid hormone (PTH) analogs. Severe hypersensitivity to palopegteriparatide or any components of YORVIPATH.

Accidental overdose of YORVIPATH may cause hypercalcemia that can be severe and require medical intervention. One subject in Study 1 accidentally received approximately 3-fold the prescribed dose of YORVIPATH for more than 7 consecutive days and developed albumin-corrected serum calcium as high as 16.1 mg/dL, requiring hospitalization.
