EXONDYS 51

Following single or multiple intravenous infusions of EXONDYS 51 in male pediatric DMD patients, plasma concentration-time profiles of eteplirsen were generally similar and showed multi-phasic decline. The majority of drug elimination occurred within 24 hours. Approximate dose-proportionality and linearity in PK properties were observed following multiple-dose studies (0.5 mg/kg/week [0.017 times the recommended dosage] to 50 mg/kg/week [1.7 times the recommended dosage]). There was no significa...

EXONDYS 51 was evaluated in three clinical studies in patients who have a confirmed mutation of the DMD gene that is amenable to exon 51 skipping. In Study 1, patients were randomized to receive weekly infusions of EXONDYS 51 (30 mg/kg, n=4); EXONDYS 51 (50 mg/kg, n=4), or placebo (n=4) for 24 weeks. The primary endpoint was dystrophin production; a clinical outcome measure, the 6-minute walk test (6MWT), was also assessed. The 6MWT measures the distance that a patient can walk on a flat, hard surface in a period of 6 minutes. Patients had a mean age of 9.4 years, a mean 6-minute walk distance...

The most common adverse reactions (incidence ≥35% and higher than placebo) were balance disorder and vomiting ( 6.1 ) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Sarepta Therapeutics, Inc. at 1-888-SAREPTA (1-888-727-3782) 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 clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials ...

Hypersensitivity Reactions: Hypersensitivity reactions, including bronchospasm, chest pain, cough, tachycardia, and urticaria, have occurred in patients treated with EXONDYS 51. If hypersensitivity reactions occur, institute appropriate medical treatment and consider slowing the infusion or interrupting the EXONDYS 51 therapy. ( 2.3 , 5.1 ) 5.1 Hypersensitivity Reactions Hypersensitivity reactions, including bronchospasm, chest pain, cough, tachycardia, and urticaria, have occurred in patients w...
