About
ORLADEYO® (berotralstat)ORLADEYO® (berotralstat)
is the first and only oral therapy designed specifically to prevent
attacks of hereditary angioedema (HAE) in adult and pediatric
patients 12 years and older. One capsule of ORLADEYO per day works
to prevent HAE attacks by decreasing the activity of plasma
kallikrein.
U.S. Indication and Important Safety
Information
INDICATIONORLADEYO® (berotralstat) is a
plasma kallikrein inhibitor indicated for prophylaxis to prevent
attacks of hereditary angioedema (HAE) in adults and pediatric
patients 12 years and older.
Limitations of useThe safety
and effectiveness of ORLADEYO for the treatment of acute HAE
attacks have not been established. ORLADEYO should not be used for
the treatment of acute HAE attacks. Additional doses or dosages of
ORLADEYO higher than 150 mg once daily are not recommended due to
the potential for QT prolongation.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATIONAn
increase in QT prolongation was observed at dosages higher than the
recommended 150 mg once-daily dosage and was concentration
dependent.
The most common adverse reactions (≥10% and
higher than placebo) in patients receiving ORLADEYO were abdominal
pain, vomiting, diarrhea, back pain, and gastroesophageal reflux
disease.
A reduced dosage of 110 mg taken orally once
daily with food is recommended in patients with moderate or severe
hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh B or C).
Berotralstat is a substrate of P-glycoprotein
(P-gp) and breast cancer resistance protein. P-gp inducers (eg,
rifampin, St. John’s wort) may decrease berotralstat plasma
concentration, leading to reduced efficacy of ORLADEYO. The use of
P-gp inducers is not recommended with ORLADEYO.
ORLADEYO at a dose of 150 mg is a moderate
inhibitor of CYP2D6 and CYP3A4. For concomitant medications with a
narrow therapeutic index that are predominantly metabolized by
CYP2D6 or CYP3A4, appropriate monitoring and dose titration is
recommended. ORLADEYO at a dose of 300 mg is a P-gp inhibitor.
Appropriate monitoring and dose titration is recommended for P-gp
substrates (eg, digoxin) when coadministering with ORLADEYO.
The safety and effectiveness of ORLADEYO in
pediatric patients <12 years of age have not been
established.
There are insufficient data available to inform
drug-related risks with ORLADEYO use in pregnancy. There are no
data on the presence of berotralstat in human milk, its effects on
the breastfed infant, or its effects on milk production.
