MECHANISM OF ACTION SECTION.


12.1 Mechanism of Action. Risankizumab-rzaa is humanized IgG1 monoclonal antibody that selectively binds to the p19 subunit of human IL-23 cytokine and inhibits its interaction with the IL-23 receptor. IL-23 is naturally occurring cytokine that is involved in inflammatory and immune responses. Risankizumab-rzaa inhibits the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines.

NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY SECTION.


13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY. 13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility. Carcinogenicity and mutagenicity studies have not been conducted with SKYRIZI. No effects on male fertility parameters were observed in sexually mature male cynomolgus monkeys subcutaneously treated with 50 mg/kg risankizumab-rzaa (at 20 times the clinical exposure at the MRHD, based on mg/kg comparison) once weekly for 26 weeks.

OVERDOSAGE SECTION.


10 OVERDOSAGE. In the event of overdosage, monitor the patient for any signs or symptoms of adverse reactions and administer appropriate symptomatic treatment immediately.

LACTATION SECTION.


8.2 Lactation. Risk SummaryThere are no data on the presence of risankizumab-rzaa in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. Maternal IgG is known to be present in human milk. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mothers clinical need for SKYRIZI and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from SKYRIZI or from the underlying maternal condition.

ADVERSE REACTIONS SECTION.


6 ADVERSE REACTIONS. The following adverse reactions are discussed in other sections of labeling: Hypersensitivity Reactions [see Warnings and Precautions 5.1 )] Infections [see Warnings and Precautions 5.2 )] Hypersensitivity Reactions [see Warnings and Precautions 5.1 )] Infections [see Warnings and Precautions 5.2 )] Most common adverse reactions (>= 1%) are upper respiratory infections, headache, fatigue, injection site reactions, and tinea infections. (6.1) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact AbbVie Inc. at 1-800-633-9110 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 drug reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of drug cannot be directly compared with rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice. Plaque PsoriasisA total of 2234 subjects were treated with SKYRIZI in clinical development trials in plaque psoriasis. Of these, 1208 subjects with psoriasis were exposed to SKYRIZI for at least one year. Data from placebo- and active-controlled trials were pooled to evaluate the safety of SKYRIZI for up to 16 weeks. In total, 1306 subjects were evaluated in the SKYRIZI 150 mg group. Table summarizes the adverse drug reactions that occurred at rate of at least 1% and at higher rate in the SKYRIZI group than the placebo group during the 16-week controlled period of pooled clinical trials. Table 1.

Specific Adverse Drug ReactionsInfectionsIn the first 16 weeks, infections occurred in 22.1% of the SKYRIZI group (90.8 events per 100 subject-years) compared with 14.7% of the placebo group (56.5 events per 100 subject-years) and did not lead to discontinuation of SKYRIZI. The rates of serious infections for the SKYRIZI group and the placebo group were <=0.4%. Serious infections in the SKYRIZI group included cellulitis, osteomyelitis, sepsis, and herpes zoster. In Studies PsO-1 and PsO-2, through Week 52, the rate of infections (73.9 events per 100 subject-years) was similar to the rate observed during the first 16 weeks of treatment. Safety Through Week 52Through Week 52, no new adverse reactions were identified, and the rates of the adverse reactions were similar to those observed during the first 16 weeks of treatment. During this period, serious infections that led to study discontinuation included pneumonia. Psoriatic ArthritisThe overall safety profile observed in subjects with psoriatic arthritis treated with SKYRIZI is generally consistent with the safety profile in subjects with plaque psoriasis. Additionally, in the Phase placebo-controlled trials the incidence of hepatic events was higher in the SKYRIZI group (5.4%, 16.7 events per 100 patient years) compared to the placebo group (3.9%, 12.6 events per 100 patient years). Of these, the most common events that were reported more frequently in both the placebo group and the SKYRIZI group were ALT increased (placebo: n=12 (1.7%); SKYRIZI: n=16 (2.3%)), AST increased (placebo: n=9 (1.3%); SKYRIZI: n=13 (1.8%)), and GGT increased (placebo: n=5 (0.7%); SKYRIZI: n=8 (1.1%)). There were no serious hepatic events reported. The incidence of hypersensitivity reactions was higher in the SKYRIZI group (n=16, 2.3%) compared to the placebo group (n=9, 1.3%). In the Phase placebo-controlled trials, hypersensitivity reactions reported at higher rate in the SKYRIZI group included rash (placebo: n=4 (0.6%); SKYRIZI: n=5 (0.7%), allergic rhinitis (placebo: n=1 (0.1%); SKYRIZI: n=2 (0.3%), and facial swelling (placebo: n=0 (0.0%); SKYRIZI n=1 (0.1%). One case of anaphylaxis was reported in subject who received SKYRIZI in the Phase clinical trial.. 6.2 Immunogenicity. As with all therapeutic proteins, there is potential for immunogenicity. The detection of antibody formation is highly dependent on the sensitivity and specificity of the assay. Additionally, the observed incidence of antibody (including neutralizing antibody) positivity in an assay may be influenced by several factors including assay methodology, sample handling, timing of sample collection, concomitant medications, and underlying disease. For these reasons, comparison of the incidence of antibodies in the studies described below with the incidence of antibodies in other studies or to other products, including other risankizumab products, may be misleading. Plaque PsoriasisBy Week 52, approximately 24% (263/1079) of subjects treated with SKYRIZI at the recommended dose developed antibodies to risankizumab-rzaa. Of the subjects who developed antibodies to risankizumab-rzaa, approximately 57% (14% of all subjects treated with SKYRIZI) had antibodies that were classified as neutralizing. Higher antibody titers in approximately 1% of subjects treated with SKYRIZI were associated with lower risankizumab-rzaa concentrations and reduced clinical response. Psoriatic ArthritisBy Week 28, approximately 12.1% (79/652) of subjects treated with SKYRIZI at the recommended dose developed antibodies to risankizumab-rzaa. None of the subjects who developed antibodies to risankizumab-rzaa had antibodies that were classified as neutralizing. Antibodies to risankizumab-rzaa were not associated with changes in clinical response for psoriatic arthritis. higher proportion of subjects with anti-drug antibodies experienced hypersensitivity reactions (6.3% (5/79)) and injection site reactions (2.5% (2/79)) compared to subjects without anti-drug antibodies (3.8% (22/574) with hypersensitivity reactions and 0.7% (4/574) with injection site reactions). None of these hypersensitivity and injection site reactions led to discontinuation of risankizumab-rzaa.. 6.3 Postmarketing Experience. The following adverse reactions have been reported during post-approval of SKYRIZI. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish causal relationship to SKYRIZI exposure:Skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders: eczema and rash Skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders: eczema and rash.

CARCINOGENESIS & MUTAGENESIS & IMPAIRMENT OF FERTILITY SECTION.


13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility. Carcinogenicity and mutagenicity studies have not been conducted with SKYRIZI. No effects on male fertility parameters were observed in sexually mature male cynomolgus monkeys subcutaneously treated with 50 mg/kg risankizumab-rzaa (at 20 times the clinical exposure at the MRHD, based on mg/kg comparison) once weekly for 26 weeks.

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY SECTION.


12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY. 12.1 Mechanism of Action. Risankizumab-rzaa is humanized IgG1 monoclonal antibody that selectively binds to the p19 subunit of human IL-23 cytokine and inhibits its interaction with the IL-23 receptor. IL-23 is naturally occurring cytokine that is involved in inflammatory and immune responses. Risankizumab-rzaa inhibits the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines. 12.2 Pharmacodynamics. No formal pharmacodynamics studies have been conducted with risankizumab-rzaa. 12.3 Pharmacokinetics. Risankizumab-rzaa plasma concentrations increased dose-proportionally from 90 to 180 mg and from 18 to 300 mg (0.6 to 1.2 and 0.12 to 2.0 times the approved recommended dosage) following subcutaneous administration in subjects with plaque psoriasis and healthy volunteers, respectively. Steady-state concentrations were achieved by Week 16 following subcutaneous administration of risankizumab-rzaa at Weeks 0, 4, and every 12 weeks thereafter. At the 150 mg dose, the estimated steady-state peak concentration (Cmax) and trough concentration (Ctrough) were approximately 12 mcg/mL and mcg/mL, respectively. With the same dosing regimen, the pharmacokinetics of risankizumab-rzaa in subjects with psoriatic arthritis was similar to that in subjects with plaque psoriasis.AbsorptionThe absolute bioavailability of risankizumab-rzaa was estimated to be 89% following subcutaneous injection. Cmax was reached by 3-14 days. DistributionThe estimated steady-state volume of distribution (inter-subject CV%) was 11.2 (34%) in subjects with plaque psoriasis. EliminationThe estimated systemic clearance (inter-subject CV%) was 0.31 L/day (24%) and terminal elimination half-life was approximately 28 days in subjects with plaque psoriasis. MetabolismThe metabolic pathway of risankizumab-rzaa has not been characterized. As humanized IgG1 monoclonal antibody, risankizumab-rzaa is expected to be degraded into small peptides and amino acids via catabolic pathways in manner similar to endogenous IgG. Specific PopulationsNo clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of risankizumab-rzaa were observed based on age (>=18 years). No specific studies have been conducted to determine the effect of renal or hepatic impairment on the pharmacokinetics of risankizumab-rzaa. Body WeightRisankizumab-rzaa clearance and volume of distribution increase and plasma concentrations decrease as body weight increases; however, no dose adjustment is recommended based on body weight. Drug Interaction StudiesCytochrome P450 SubstratesNo clinically significant changes in exposure of caffeine (CYP1A2 substrate), warfarin (CYP2C9 substrate), omeprazole (CYP2C19 substrate), metoprolol (CYP2D6 substrate), or midazolam (CYP3A substrate) were observed when used concomitantly with risankizumab-rzaa 150 mg administered subcutaneously at Weeks 0, 4, and 12 (more frequent than the approved recommended dosing frequency) in subjects with plaque psoriasis.

CLINICAL STUDIES SECTION.


14 CLINICAL STUDIES. Figure 1. Percent of Subjects Achieving ACR20 Responses in Study PsA-1 through Week 24. 14.1 Plaque Psoriasis. Four multicenter, randomized, double-blind studies [PsO-1 (NCT02684370), PsO-2 (NCT02684357), PsO-3 (NCT02672852), and PsO-4 (NCT02694523)] enrolled 2109 subjects 18 years of age and older with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis who had body surface area (BSA) involvement of >=10%, static Physicians Global Assessment (sPGA) score of >=3 (moderate) in the overall assessment (plaque thickness/induration, erythema, and scaling) of psoriasis on severity scale of to 4, and Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score >=12. Overall, subjects had median baseline PASI score of 17.8 and median BSA of 20%. Baseline sPGA score was (severe) in 19% of subjects. total of 10% of study subjects had history of diagnosed psoriatic arthritis. Across all studies, 38% of subjects had received prior phototherapy, 48% had received prior non-biologic systemic therapy, and 42% had received prior biologic therapy for the treatment of psoriasis. Studies PsO-1 and PsO-2In studies PsO-1 and PsO-2, 997 subjects were enrolled (including 598 subjects randomized to the SKYRIZI 150 mg group, 200 subjects randomized to the placebo group, and 199 to the biologic active control group). Subjects received treatment at Weeks 0, 4, and every 12 weeks thereafter. Both studies assessed the responses at Week 16 compared with placebo for the two co-primary endpoints: the proportion of subjects who achieved an sPGA score of (clear) or (almost clear) the proportion of subjects who achieved at least 90% reduction from baseline PASI (PASI 90)Secondary endpoints included the proportion of subjects who achieved PASI 100, sPGA 0, and Psoriasis Symptom Scale (PSS) at Week 16. The results are presented in Table 2. Table 2.

In PsO-1 and PsO-2 at Week 52, subjects receiving SKYRIZI achieved sPGA (58% and 60%, respectively), PASI 90 (82% and 81%, respectively), and PASI 100 (56% and 60%, respectively). Patient Reported OutcomesImprovements in signs and symptoms related to pain, redness, itching and burning at Week 16 compared to placebo were observed in both studies as assessed by the PSS. In PsO-1 and PsO-2, about 30% of the subjects who received SKYRIZI achieved PSS (none) at Week 16 compared to 1% of the subjects who received placebo. Study PsO-3Study PsO-3 enrolled 507 subjects (407 randomized to SKYRIZI 150 mg and 100 to placebo). Subjects received treatment at Weeks 0, 4, and every 12 weeks thereafter. At Week 16, SKYRIZI was superior to placebo on the co-primary endpoints of sPGA or (84% SKYRIZI and 7% placebo) and PASI 90 (73% SKYRIZI and 2% placebo). The respective response rates for SKYRIZI and placebo at Week 16 were: sPGA (46% SKYRIZI and 1% placebo); PASI 100 (47% SKYRIZI and 1% placebo); and PASI 75 (89% SKYRIZI and 8% placebo). Maintenance and Durability of ResponseIn PsO-1 and PsO-2, among the subjects who received SKYRIZI and had PASI 100 at Week 16, 80% (206/258) of the subjects who continued on SKYRIZI had PASI 100 at Week 52. For PASI 90 responders at Week 16, 88% (398/450) of the subjects had PASI 90 at Week 52. In PsO-3, subjects who were originally on SKYRIZI and had sPGA or at Week 28 were re-randomized to continue SKYRIZI every 12 weeks or withdrawal of therapy. At Week 52, 87% (97/111) of the subjects re-randomized to continue treatment with SKYRIZI had sPGA or compared to 61% (138/225) who were re-randomized to withdrawal of SKYRIZI. the proportion of subjects who achieved an sPGA score of (clear) or (almost clear) the proportion of subjects who achieved at least 90% reduction from baseline PASI (PASI 90). 14.2 Psoriatic Arthritis. The safety and efficacy of SKYRIZI were assessed in 1407 subjects in randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies (964 in PsA-1 [NCT03675308] and 443 in PsA-2 [NCT03671148]) in subjects 18 years and older with active psoriatic arthritis (PsA).Subjects in these studies had diagnosis of PsA for at least months based on the Classification Criteria for Psoriatic Arthritis (CASPAR), median duration of PsA of 4.9 years at baseline, >= tender joints and >= swollen joints, and active plaque psoriasis or psoriatic nail disease at baseline. Regarding baseline clinical presentation, 55.9% of subjects had >=3% BSA with active plaque psoriasis; 63.4% and 27.9% of subjects had enthesitis and dactylitis, respectively. In PsA-1 where psoriatic nail disease was further assessed, 67.3% had psoriatic nail disease.In PsA-1, all subjects had previous inadequate response or intolerance to non-biologic DMARD therapy and were biologic naive. In PsA-2, 53.5% of subjects had previous inadequate response or intolerance to non-biologic DMARD therapy, and 46.5% of subjects had previous inadequate response or intolerance to biologic therapy. In both studies, subjects were randomized to receive SKYRIZI 150 mg or placebo at Weeks 0, 4, and 16. Starting from Week 28, all subjects received SKYRIZI every 12 weeks. Both studies included long-term extension for up to an additional 204 weeks. Regarding use of concomitant medications, 59.6% of subjects were receiving concomitant methotrexate (MTX), 11.6% were receiving concomitant non-biologic DMARDs other than MTX, and 28.9% were receiving SKYRIZI monotherapy. For both studies, the primary endpoint was the proportion of subjects who achieved an American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 20 response at Week 24. Clinical Response In both studies, treatment with SKYRIZI resulted in significant improvement in measures of disease activity compared with placebo at Week 24. See Tables and for key efficacy results.In both studies, similar responses were seen regardless of concomitant non-biologic DMARD use, number of prior non-biologic DMARDs, age, gender, race, and BMI. In PsA-2, responses were seen regardless of prior biologic therapy.Table 3.

Other Health Related OutcomesIn both studies, general health status was assessed by the 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36 V2). Fatigue was assessed by Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy Fatigue Scale (FACIT-Fatigue). In both studies at Week 24, subjects treated with SKYRIZI showed improvements in the SF-36 physical component summary scores compared with subjects who received placebo. There were also numerical improvements in subjects treated with SKYRIZI in physical functioning, role physical, bodily pain, general health, vitality, social functioning, mental health, role emotional domain scores and mental component summary scores in both studies at week 24 compared to placebo. In both studies at Week 24, subjects treated with SKYRIZI showed improvements in FACIT-Fatigue scores compared with subjects who received placebo.

CLINICAL TRIALS EXPERIENCE SECTION.


6.1 Clinical Trials Experience. Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse drug reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of drug cannot be directly compared with rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice. Plaque PsoriasisA total of 2234 subjects were treated with SKYRIZI in clinical development trials in plaque psoriasis. Of these, 1208 subjects with psoriasis were exposed to SKYRIZI for at least one year. Data from placebo- and active-controlled trials were pooled to evaluate the safety of SKYRIZI for up to 16 weeks. In total, 1306 subjects were evaluated in the SKYRIZI 150 mg group. Table summarizes the adverse drug reactions that occurred at rate of at least 1% and at higher rate in the SKYRIZI group than the placebo group during the 16-week controlled period of pooled clinical trials. Table 1.

Specific Adverse Drug ReactionsInfectionsIn the first 16 weeks, infections occurred in 22.1% of the SKYRIZI group (90.8 events per 100 subject-years) compared with 14.7% of the placebo group (56.5 events per 100 subject-years) and did not lead to discontinuation of SKYRIZI. The rates of serious infections for the SKYRIZI group and the placebo group were <=0.4%. Serious infections in the SKYRIZI group included cellulitis, osteomyelitis, sepsis, and herpes zoster. In Studies PsO-1 and PsO-2, through Week 52, the rate of infections (73.9 events per 100 subject-years) was similar to the rate observed during the first 16 weeks of treatment. Safety Through Week 52Through Week 52, no new adverse reactions were identified, and the rates of the adverse reactions were similar to those observed during the first 16 weeks of treatment. During this period, serious infections that led to study discontinuation included pneumonia. Psoriatic ArthritisThe overall safety profile observed in subjects with psoriatic arthritis treated with SKYRIZI is generally consistent with the safety profile in subjects with plaque psoriasis. Additionally, in the Phase placebo-controlled trials the incidence of hepatic events was higher in the SKYRIZI group (5.4%, 16.7 events per 100 patient years) compared to the placebo group (3.9%, 12.6 events per 100 patient years). Of these, the most common events that were reported more frequently in both the placebo group and the SKYRIZI group were ALT increased (placebo: n=12 (1.7%); SKYRIZI: n=16 (2.3%)), AST increased (placebo: n=9 (1.3%); SKYRIZI: n=13 (1.8%)), and GGT increased (placebo: n=5 (0.7%); SKYRIZI: n=8 (1.1%)). There were no serious hepatic events reported. The incidence of hypersensitivity reactions was higher in the SKYRIZI group (n=16, 2.3%) compared to the placebo group (n=9, 1.3%). In the Phase placebo-controlled trials, hypersensitivity reactions reported at higher rate in the SKYRIZI group included rash (placebo: n=4 (0.6%); SKYRIZI: n=5 (0.7%), allergic rhinitis (placebo: n=1 (0.1%); SKYRIZI: n=2 (0.3%), and facial swelling (placebo: n=0 (0.0%); SKYRIZI n=1 (0.1%). One case of anaphylaxis was reported in subject who received SKYRIZI in the Phase clinical trial.

GERIATRIC USE SECTION.


8.5 Geriatric Use. Of the 2234 subjects with plaque psoriasis exposed to SKYRIZI, 243 subjects were 65 years or older and 24 subjects were 75 years or older. No overall differences in risankizumab-rzaa exposure, safety or effectiveness were observed between older and younger subjects who received SKYRIZI. However, the number of subjects aged 65 years and older was not sufficient to determine whether they respond differently from younger subjects.

IMMUNOGENICITY.


6.2 Immunogenicity. As with all therapeutic proteins, there is potential for immunogenicity. The detection of antibody formation is highly dependent on the sensitivity and specificity of the assay. Additionally, the observed incidence of antibody (including neutralizing antibody) positivity in an assay may be influenced by several factors including assay methodology, sample handling, timing of sample collection, concomitant medications, and underlying disease. For these reasons, comparison of the incidence of antibodies in the studies described below with the incidence of antibodies in other studies or to other products, including other risankizumab products, may be misleading. Plaque PsoriasisBy Week 52, approximately 24% (263/1079) of subjects treated with SKYRIZI at the recommended dose developed antibodies to risankizumab-rzaa. Of the subjects who developed antibodies to risankizumab-rzaa, approximately 57% (14% of all subjects treated with SKYRIZI) had antibodies that were classified as neutralizing. Higher antibody titers in approximately 1% of subjects treated with SKYRIZI were associated with lower risankizumab-rzaa concentrations and reduced clinical response. Psoriatic ArthritisBy Week 28, approximately 12.1% (79/652) of subjects treated with SKYRIZI at the recommended dose developed antibodies to risankizumab-rzaa. None of the subjects who developed antibodies to risankizumab-rzaa had antibodies that were classified as neutralizing. Antibodies to risankizumab-rzaa were not associated with changes in clinical response for psoriatic arthritis. higher proportion of subjects with anti-drug antibodies experienced hypersensitivity reactions (6.3% (5/79)) and injection site reactions (2.5% (2/79)) compared to subjects without anti-drug antibodies (3.8% (22/574) with hypersensitivity reactions and 0.7% (4/574) with injection site reactions). None of these hypersensitivity and injection site reactions led to discontinuation of risankizumab-rzaa.

PEDIATRIC USE SECTION.


8.4 Pediatric Use. The safety and efficacy of SKYRIZI in pediatric patients younger than 18 years of age have not yet been established.

PHARMACODYNAMICS SECTION.


12.2 Pharmacodynamics. No formal pharmacodynamics studies have been conducted with risankizumab-rzaa.

PHARMACOKINETICS SECTION.


12.3 Pharmacokinetics. Risankizumab-rzaa plasma concentrations increased dose-proportionally from 90 to 180 mg and from 18 to 300 mg (0.6 to 1.2 and 0.12 to 2.0 times the approved recommended dosage) following subcutaneous administration in subjects with plaque psoriasis and healthy volunteers, respectively. Steady-state concentrations were achieved by Week 16 following subcutaneous administration of risankizumab-rzaa at Weeks 0, 4, and every 12 weeks thereafter. At the 150 mg dose, the estimated steady-state peak concentration (Cmax) and trough concentration (Ctrough) were approximately 12 mcg/mL and mcg/mL, respectively. With the same dosing regimen, the pharmacokinetics of risankizumab-rzaa in subjects with psoriatic arthritis was similar to that in subjects with plaque psoriasis.AbsorptionThe absolute bioavailability of risankizumab-rzaa was estimated to be 89% following subcutaneous injection. Cmax was reached by 3-14 days. DistributionThe estimated steady-state volume of distribution (inter-subject CV%) was 11.2 (34%) in subjects with plaque psoriasis. EliminationThe estimated systemic clearance (inter-subject CV%) was 0.31 L/day (24%) and terminal elimination half-life was approximately 28 days in subjects with plaque psoriasis. MetabolismThe metabolic pathway of risankizumab-rzaa has not been characterized. As humanized IgG1 monoclonal antibody, risankizumab-rzaa is expected to be degraded into small peptides and amino acids via catabolic pathways in manner similar to endogenous IgG. Specific PopulationsNo clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of risankizumab-rzaa were observed based on age (>=18 years). No specific studies have been conducted to determine the effect of renal or hepatic impairment on the pharmacokinetics of risankizumab-rzaa. Body WeightRisankizumab-rzaa clearance and volume of distribution increase and plasma concentrations decrease as body weight increases; however, no dose adjustment is recommended based on body weight. Drug Interaction StudiesCytochrome P450 SubstratesNo clinically significant changes in exposure of caffeine (CYP1A2 substrate), warfarin (CYP2C9 substrate), omeprazole (CYP2C19 substrate), metoprolol (CYP2D6 substrate), or midazolam (CYP3A substrate) were observed when used concomitantly with risankizumab-rzaa 150 mg administered subcutaneously at Weeks 0, 4, and 12 (more frequent than the approved recommended dosing frequency) in subjects with plaque psoriasis.

POSTMARKETING EXPERIENCE SECTION.


6.3 Postmarketing Experience. The following adverse reactions have been reported during post-approval of SKYRIZI. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish causal relationship to SKYRIZI exposure:Skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders: eczema and rash Skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders: eczema and rash.

PREGNANCY SECTION.


8.1 Pregnancy. Pregnancy Exposure RegistryThere is pregnancy exposure registry that monitors outcomes in women with plaque psoriasis who become pregnant while treated with SKYRIZI. Patients should be encouraged to enroll by calling 1-877-302-2161.Risk SummaryAvailable data with SKYRIZI use in pregnant women are insufficient to evaluate drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcome. Human IgG is known to cross the placental barrier; therefore, SKYRIZI may be transmitted from the mother to the developing fetus. In an enhanced pre- and post-natal developmental toxicity study, pregnant cynomolgus monkeys were administered subcutaneous doses of and 50 mg/kg risankizumab-rzaa once weekly during the period of organogenesis up to parturition. At the 50 mg/kg dose [20 times the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD); 2.5 mg/kg based on administration of 150 mg dose to 60 kg individual], increased fetal/infant loss was noted in pregnant monkeys (see Data). No risankizumab-rzaa-related effects on functional or immunological development were observed in infant monkeys from birth through months of age. The clinical significance of these findings for humans is unknown. All pregnancies have background risk of birth defect, loss, or other adverse outcomes. The background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively. DataAnimal DataAn enhanced pre- and post-natal developmental toxicity study was conducted in cynomolgus monkeys. Pregnant cynomolgus monkeys were administered weekly subcutaneous doses of risankizumab-rzaa of or 50 mg/kg from gestation day 20 to parturition, and the cynomolgus monkeys (mother and infants) were monitored for months after delivery. No maternal toxicity was noted in this study. There were no treatment-related effects on growth and development, malformations, developmental immunotoxicology, or neurobehavioral development. However, dose-dependent increase in fetal/infant loss was noted in the risankizumab-rzaa-treated groups (32% and 43% in the mg/kg and 50 mg/kg groups, respectively) compared with the vehicle control group (19%). The increased fetal/infant loss in the 50 mg/kg group was considered to be related to risankizumab-rzaa treatment. The no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) for maternal toxicity was identified as 50 mg/kg (20 times the MRHD, based on mg/kg comparison) and the NOAEL for developmental toxicity was identified as mg/kg (2 times the MRHD, based on mg/kg comparison). In the infants, mean serum concentrations increased in dose-dependent manner and were approximately 17%-86% of the respective maternal concentrations. Following delivery, most adult female cynomolgus monkeys and all infants from the risankizumab-rzaa-treated groups had measurable serum concentrations of risankizumab-rzaa up to 91 days postpartum. Serum concentrations were below detectable levels at 180 days postpartum.

SPL UNCLASSIFIED SECTION.


1.1 Plaque Psoriasis. SKYRIZI(R) is indicated for the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis in adults who are candidates for systemic therapy or phototherapy.

USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS SECTION.


8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS. 8.1 Pregnancy. Pregnancy Exposure RegistryThere is pregnancy exposure registry that monitors outcomes in women with plaque psoriasis who become pregnant while treated with SKYRIZI. Patients should be encouraged to enroll by calling 1-877-302-2161.Risk SummaryAvailable data with SKYRIZI use in pregnant women are insufficient to evaluate drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcome. Human IgG is known to cross the placental barrier; therefore, SKYRIZI may be transmitted from the mother to the developing fetus. In an enhanced pre- and post-natal developmental toxicity study, pregnant cynomolgus monkeys were administered subcutaneous doses of and 50 mg/kg risankizumab-rzaa once weekly during the period of organogenesis up to parturition. At the 50 mg/kg dose [20 times the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD); 2.5 mg/kg based on administration of 150 mg dose to 60 kg individual], increased fetal/infant loss was noted in pregnant monkeys (see Data). No risankizumab-rzaa-related effects on functional or immunological development were observed in infant monkeys from birth through months of age. The clinical significance of these findings for humans is unknown. All pregnancies have background risk of birth defect, loss, or other adverse outcomes. The background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively. DataAnimal DataAn enhanced pre- and post-natal developmental toxicity study was conducted in cynomolgus monkeys. Pregnant cynomolgus monkeys were administered weekly subcutaneous doses of risankizumab-rzaa of or 50 mg/kg from gestation day 20 to parturition, and the cynomolgus monkeys (mother and infants) were monitored for months after delivery. No maternal toxicity was noted in this study. There were no treatment-related effects on growth and development, malformations, developmental immunotoxicology, or neurobehavioral development. However, dose-dependent increase in fetal/infant loss was noted in the risankizumab-rzaa-treated groups (32% and 43% in the mg/kg and 50 mg/kg groups, respectively) compared with the vehicle control group (19%). The increased fetal/infant loss in the 50 mg/kg group was considered to be related to risankizumab-rzaa treatment. The no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) for maternal toxicity was identified as 50 mg/kg (20 times the MRHD, based on mg/kg comparison) and the NOAEL for developmental toxicity was identified as mg/kg (2 times the MRHD, based on mg/kg comparison). In the infants, mean serum concentrations increased in dose-dependent manner and were approximately 17%-86% of the respective maternal concentrations. Following delivery, most adult female cynomolgus monkeys and all infants from the risankizumab-rzaa-treated groups had measurable serum concentrations of risankizumab-rzaa up to 91 days postpartum. Serum concentrations were below detectable levels at 180 days postpartum. 8.2 Lactation. Risk SummaryThere are no data on the presence of risankizumab-rzaa in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. Maternal IgG is known to be present in human milk. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mothers clinical need for SKYRIZI and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from SKYRIZI or from the underlying maternal condition. 8.4 Pediatric Use. The safety and efficacy of SKYRIZI in pediatric patients younger than 18 years of age have not yet been established. 8.5 Geriatric Use. Of the 2234 subjects with plaque psoriasis exposed to SKYRIZI, 243 subjects were 65 years or older and 24 subjects were 75 years or older. No overall differences in risankizumab-rzaa exposure, safety or effectiveness were observed between older and younger subjects who received SKYRIZI. However, the number of subjects aged 65 years and older was not sufficient to determine whether they respond differently from younger subjects.

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS SECTION.


5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS. Hypersensitivity Reactions: Serious hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, may occur (5.1) Infections: SKYRIZI may increase the risk of infection. Instruct patients to seek medical advice if signs or symptoms of clinically important infection occur. If such an infection develops, do not administer SKYRIZI until the infection resolves. (5.2) Tuberculosis (TB): Evaluate for TB prior to initiating treatment with SKYRIZI. (5.3) Administration of Vaccines: Avoid use of live vaccines. (5.4) Hypersensitivity Reactions: Serious hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, may occur (5.1) Infections: SKYRIZI may increase the risk of infection. Instruct patients to seek medical advice if signs or symptoms of clinically important infection occur. If such an infection develops, do not administer SKYRIZI until the infection resolves. (5.2) Tuberculosis (TB): Evaluate for TB prior to initiating treatment with SKYRIZI. (5.3) Administration of Vaccines: Avoid use of live vaccines. (5.4) 5.1 Hypersensitivity Reactions Serious hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, have been reported with use of SKYRIZI. If serious hypersensitivity reaction occurs, discontinue SKYRIZI and initiate appropriate therapy immediately [see Adverse Reactions 6.1 )]. 5.2 Infections. SKYRIZI may increase the risk of infections. In clinical studies, infections occurred in 22.1% of the SKYRIZI group compared with 14.7% of the placebo group through 16 weeks of treatment. Upper respiratory tract infections and tinea infections occurred more frequently in the SKYRIZI group than in the placebo group. Subjects with known chronic or acute infections were not enrolled in clinical studies [see Adverse Reactions 6.1 )]. The rate of serious infections for the SKYRIZI group and the placebo group was <= 0.4%. Treatment with SKYRIZI should not be initiated in patients with any clinically important active infection until the infection resolves or is adequately treated. In patients with chronic infection or history of recurrent infection, consider the risks and benefits prior to prescribing SKYRIZI. Instruct patients to seek medical advice if signs or symptoms of clinically important infection occur. If patient develops such an infection or is not responding to standard therapy, monitor the patient closely and do not administer SKYRIZI until the infection resolves. 5.3 Tuberculosis. Evaluate patients for tuberculosis (TB) infection prior to initiating treatment with SKYRIZI. Across the Phase psoriasis clinical studies, of the 72 subjects with latent TB who were concurrently treated with SKYRIZI and appropriate TB prophylaxis during the studies, none developed active TB during the mean follow-up of 61 weeks on SKYRIZI. Two subjects taking isoniazid for treatment of latent TB discontinued treatment due to liver injury. Of the 31 subjects from the PsO-3 study with latent TB who did not receive prophylaxis during the study, none developed active TB during the mean follow-up of 55 weeks on SKYRIZI. Consider anti-TB therapy prior to initiating SKYRIZI in patients with past history of latent or active TB in whom an adequate course of treatment cannot be confirmed. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of active TB during and after SKYRIZI treatment. Do not administer SKYRIZI to patients with active TB. 5.4 Administration of Vaccines. Avoid use of live vaccines in patients treated with SKYRIZI. Medications that interact with the immune system may increase the risk of infection following administration of live vaccines. Prior to initiating therapy with SKYRIZI, complete all age-appropriate vaccinations according to current immunization guidelines. No data are available on the response to live or inactive vaccines.
