ADVERSE REACTIONS SECTION.


6 ADVERSE REACTIONS. The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling:Cystitis and Pyelonephritis [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ]. Cystitis and Pyelonephritis [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ]. Most common adverse reactions (>=2%) were vulvovaginal burning sensation, vulvovaginal pruritus, vulvovaginal mycotic infection, urinary tract infection, vulvovaginal discomfort, bacterial vaginosis, vaginal discharge, genital discomfort, dysuria, and vulvovaginal pain. (6.1)To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Evofem at toll-free phone 1-833-EVFMBIO 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 the clinical trials of drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.The safety of PHEXX (pre-filled applicator with 5-gram dose) has been evaluated in two clinical trials (Study and Study 2) in 2804 subjects (over 19,000 cycles of exposure). The racial/ethnic distribution was 66% White, 27% Black or African American, 2% Asian, 1% American Indian or Alaska Native, 0.3% Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander, and 5% other; 32% of the study population was Hispanic. Study included one-year extension phase where 342 U.S. subjects were exposed to PHEXX for 13 cycles.. Hypersensitivity ReactionOf the 2804 PHEXX-treated subjects in Studies and 2, one subject reported suspected drug hypersensitivity. Avoid PHEXX use in females of reproductive potential with suspected hypersensitivity to the ingredients in PHEXX.The most common adverse reactions (>=10%) in the U.S. population in Studies and (n=2480) were: vulvovaginal burning sensation (18.0%) and vulvovaginal pruritus (14.5%). The majority of these adverse reactions were mild and few led to discontinuation. Table summarizes the most common adverse reactions (>=2%) reported by subjects using PHEXX in the U.S.Table 1.

The most common adverse reactions leading to study discontinuation were vulvovaginal burning sensation (0.7%); and vulvovaginal pruritus and vulvovaginal discomfort (0.1% each).. Adverse Reactions in Male PartnersAmong male partners of subjects who used PHEXX for contraception in Study 2, 9.8% (131 of 1330) reported symptoms of local discomfort (burning, itching, pain, and other). Of these local discomfort symptoms, 74.7% were mild, 21.4% were moderate, and 3.9% were severe. Two subjects discontinued participation in the study due to male partner symptoms.

CARCINOGENESIS & MUTAGENESIS & IMPAIRMENT OF FERTILITY SECTION.


13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility. CarcinogenesisLong-term carcinogenicity studies have not been performed with PHEXX.. MutagenesisMutagenic studies have not been performed with PHEXX.. Impairment of FertilityReproductive studies have not been performed with PHEXX. Upon discontinuation of PHEXX, pregnancy may occur.

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY SECTION.


12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY. 12.1 Mechanism of Action. In in vitro studies, PHEXX produced normal vaginal pH range (pH 3.5 4.5) in the presence of semen. In clinical studies, post-coital testing demonstrated pH <5 in the majority of subjects, and sperm motility reduction.. 12.2 Pharmacodynamics. Pharmacodynamic studies in humans have not been performed.. 12.3 Pharmacokinetics. Pharmacokinetic studies in humans have not been performed. Systemic exposures of lactic acid, citric acid, and potassium bitartrate following vaginal administration of PHEXX are not expected to lead to safety concerns.In vitro studies with commonly used vaginal preparations (miconazole, metronidazole, tioconazole, and product for maintaining normal vaginal pH) showed no significant effect on the pH or buffering capacity of PHEXX.

CLINICAL STUDIES SECTION.


14 CLINICAL STUDIES. The efficacy of PHEXX for the prevention of pregnancy was evaluated in multi-center, open-label, single-arm clinical trial in the United States (AMP002; NCT03243305). The study enrolled females of reproductive potential 18 to 35 years of age with regular menstrual cycles (21 to 35 days). The median age was 27.8 years. The racial distribution was 70.6% White, 23.7% Black or African American, 2.5% Asian, 0.4% American Indian or Alaska Native, 0.2% Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander, and 2.7% other. Subjects agreed to engage in at least acts of heterosexual, vaginal intercourse per cycle. Subjects self-administered 5 gram dose of PHEXX intravaginally up to one hour before each episode of intercourse for up to cycles.The primary efficacy endpoint was the 7-cycle typical use cumulative pregnancy rate as derived by Kaplan-Meier life-table analysis. total of 101 on-treatment pregnancies occurred in 1183 subjects contributing 4769 evaluable natural cycles. The 7-cycle cumulative pregnancy rate was 13.7% (95% CI: 10.0%, 17.5%), excluding cycles with back-up contraception, cycles <21 days or >35 days in length and cycles in which no intercourse was reported. The estimated Pearl Index, calculated based on data from the 7-cycle study, was 27.5 (95% CI: 22.4%, 33.5%).
