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.. Overview of Safety EvaluationThe safety of NULIBRY was assessed in 37 pediatric patients and healthy adults who received at least one intravenous infusion of NULIBRY or an E. coli derived non-salt, anhydrous form of cPMP (recombinant cPMP or rcPMP, which has the same active moiety and therefore the same biologic activity as NULIBRY). Of these 37 patients/healthy adults, 13 were pediatric patients with MoCD Type in Studies 1, 2, and [see Clinical Studies (14)], were pediatric patients with presumptive MoCD Type but who were later confirmed to not have MoCD Type A, and 18 were healthy adults (without MoCD Type A) in Phase study.. Adverse ReactionsAssessment of adverse reactions for NULIBRY is based on data from two open-label, single-arm studies, Study (n=8) and Study (n=1), in patients with confirmed diagnosis of MoCD Type (8 of the patients were previously treated with rcPMP). In these studies, patients received daily intravenous infusion of NULIBRY. The median exposure to NULIBRY was 4.3 years and ranged from days to 5.6 years [see Clinical Studies (14)]. In these studies, 44% of patients were males and 56% were females, 67% were White and 33% were Asian. The mean age was 14 days and ranged from day to 69 days at time of first infusion.Table presents the most common adverse reactions that occurred in NULIBRY-treated patients in Studies and 2.Table 2Common Adverse Reactions Reported in Two or More NULIBRY-Treated Patients with MoCD Type (Studies and 2)Adverse ReactionsNULIBRY-Treated Patients (N=9) (%)Abbreviations: MoCD molybdenum cofactor deficiencyCatheter-related complicationsCatheter-related complications included complication associated with device, catheter site abscess, catheter site discharge, catheter site extravasation, catheter site pain, catheter site infection, catheter site inflammation, device dislocation, device leakage, device occlusion, and vascular device infection.

The median time on rcPMP treatment was 1.5 years and ranged from days to 4.4 years. In Study 3, the patient population was evenly distributed between males and females with mean age of 18 days (range 1, 69) at time of first infusion, 70% were White, and 30% were Asian.In Study 3, one patient died of necrotizing enterocolitis. Adverse reactions for the rcPMP-treated patients were similar to the NULIBRY-treated patients, except for the following additional adverse reactions that were reported in more than one patient: sepsis, oral candidiasis, varicella, fungal skin infection, and eczema.

ANIMAL PHARMACOLOGY & OR TOXICOLOGY SECTION.


13.2 Animal Toxicology and/or Pharmacology. Fosdenopterin has demonstrated phototoxic potential in an animal study at doses equal to and greater than 4.5 times the maximum recommended human dose (based on human equivalent dose comparison). In this study, which was conducted in pigmented rats, intravenous (bolus) administration of fosdenopterin for three consecutive days followed by ultraviolet radiation (UVR) exposure resulted in dose-dependent cutaneous skin reactions (erythema, edema, flaking, and eschar) and ophthalmic and histopathologic changes indicative of phototoxicity [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].

CARCINOGENESIS & MUTAGENESIS & IMPAIRMENT OF FERTILITY SECTION.


13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility. Carcinogenicity studies have not been conducted with fosdenopterin.Fosdenopterin was not genotoxic in standard battery of in vitro (bacterial reverse mutation and human lymphocyte chromosomal aberration) and in vivo (rodent bone marrow micronucleus) assays.Fertility studies have not been conducted with fosdenopterin.

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY SECTION.


12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY. 12.1 Mechanism of Action. Patients with MoCD Type have mutations in the MOCS1 gene leading to deficient MOCS1A/B dependent synthesis of the intermediate substrate, cPMP. Substrate replacement therapy with NULIBRY provides an exogenous source of cPMP, which is converted to molybdopterin. Molybdopterin is then converted to molybdenum cofactor, which is needed for the activation of molybdenum-dependent enzymes, including sulfite oxidase (SOX), an enzyme that reduces levels of neurotoxic sulfites.. 12.2 Pharmacodynamics. In MoCD Type A, the lack of effective SOX leads to elevated levels of the neurotoxic sulfite, S-sulfocysteine (SSC). Treatment with NULIBRY resulted in reduction in the level of urinary SSC normalized to creatinine and the reduction was sustained with long-term treatment with NULIBRY [see Clinical Studies (14)].. Cardiac ElectrophysiologyA thorough QT study of NULIBRY has not been conducted.. 12.3 Pharmacokinetics. The pharmacokinetics of fosdenopterin in healthy adult subjects following single intravenous NULIBRY infusion are summarized in Table 3. The area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) and the maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) of fosdenopterin increased in an approximately proportional manner with increasing doses.Table 3Mean (SD) Pharmacokinetic Parameters Following Single Intravenous Dose of Fosdenopterin in Healthy SubjectsParameter0.075 mg/kg0.075 mg/kg, 0.24 mg/kg, and 0.68 mg/kg doses are 0.08, 0.27, and 0.76 times the recommended maximum dose, respectively. 0.24 mg/kg 0.68 mg/kg Cmax (ng/mL)285 (57)873 (99)2800 (567)AUC0-inf (ngh/mL)523 (75)1790 (213)5960 (1820). DistributionThe volume of distribution (Vd) of fosdenopterin was approximately 300 mL/kg. The plasma protein binding of fosdenopterin ranged from to 12%.. EliminationThe mean total body clearance (CL) of fosdenopterin ranged from 167 to 195 mL/h/kg. The mean half-life of fosdenopterin ranged from 1.2 to 1.7 hours.. MetabolismFosdenopterin is predominantly metabolized through nonenzymatic degradation processes to Compound Z, an inactive oxidation product of endogenous cPMP.. ExcretionRenal clearance of fosdenopterin accounts for approximately 40% of total body clearance.. Specific PopulationsThe effect of renal and hepatic impairment on the pharmacokinetics of fosdenopterin is unknown.. Pediatric PatientsPharmacokinetic properties of fosdenopterin in pediatric MoCD Type patients are similar to healthy adult subjects.. Drug Interaction Studies. In Vitro Studies. Cytochrome P450 (CYP) Enzymes: Fosdenopterin does not inhibit CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, or CYP3A4/5. Fosdenopterin does not induce CYP1A2, CYP2B6, or CYP3A4.. Transporter Systems: Fosdenopterin is weak inhibitor of MATE2-K and OAT1, but does not inhibit P-gp, BCRP, OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OCT2, OAT3, and MATE1. Fosdenopterin is weak substrate for MATE1, but is not substrate of P-gp, BCRP, OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OCT2, OAT1, OAT3, or MATE2-K.

CLINICAL STUDIES SECTION.


14 CLINICAL STUDIES. The efficacy of NULIBRY for the treatment of patients with MoCD Type was established based on data from three clinical studies (Studies 1, 2, and 3) that were compared to data from natural history study.. Study 1Study (NCT02047461) was prospective, open-label, single-arm, dose escalation study in patients with MoCD Type who were receiving treatment with rcPMP prior to treatment with NULIBRY. Study included patients, of whom previously participated in Study 3. The initial NULIBRY dosage was matched to the patients rcPMP dosage upon entering the study. The NULIBRY dosage was then titrated over period of months to maximum dosage of 0.9 mg/kg administered once daily as an intravenous infusion.. Study 2Study (NCT02629393) was prospective, open-label, single-arm, dose escalation study in one patient with MoCD Type who had not been previously treated with rcPMP. The initial dosage of NULIBRY in Study was based on the gestational age of the patient (i.e., 36 weeks). The initial dosage was then incrementally escalated up to maximum dosage of 0.98 mg/kg administered once daily as an intravenous infusion (1.1 times the maximum approved recommended dosage) [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)]. Study 3Study was retrospective, observational study that included 10 patients with confirmed diagnosis of MoCD Type who received rcPMP. Six of these 10 patients were later enrolled in Study to receive treatment with NULIBRY.. Efficacy ResultsThe efficacy of NULIBRY and rcPMP were assessed in combined analysis of the 13 patients with genetically confirmed MoCD Type from Study (n=8), Study (n=1), and Study (n=4) who received substrate replacement therapy with NULIBRY or rcPMP. Of the 13 treated patients included in the combined analysis, 54% were male, 77% were White and 23% were Asian; the median gestational age was 39 weeks (range 35 to 41 weeks). Of these 13 treated patients, the age at first dose was <= 14 days for 10 patients (with patients initiating treatment at day of age) and >= 32 days and 69 days for the remaining patients. Overall SurvivalEfficacy was assessed by comparing overall survival in pediatric patients treated with NULIBRY or rcPMP (n=13) with an untreated natural history cohort of pediatric patients with genetically confirmed MoCD Type who were genotype-matched to the treated patients (n=18). Patients treated with NULIBRY or rcPMP had an improvement in overall survival compared to the untreated, genotype-matched, historical control group (Table and Figure 1). Results were similar when comparing treated patients with all patients in the untreated natural history cohort with genetically confirmed MoCD Type (n=37, includes the 18 genotype-matched untreated patients as well as 19 additional untreated patients who were not genotype-matched).Table 4Overall Survival in Patients with MoCD Type Treated with NULIBRY or rcPMP Versus Genotype-Matched Untreated Patients in Historical Control NULIBRY (or rcPMP) (n=13)Untreated Genotype-Matched Historical Control (n=18)Treatment Difference (95% CI)Abbreviations: CI=confidence interval; NE=not estimable; rcPMP=recombinant Escherichia coli-derived cPMP.Number of Deaths (%)2 (15%)12 (67%)50th Percentile (Median) Survival Time in MonthsNE (16, NE) months48 (10, 99) months (95% CI)Quartile estimates from product-limit (Kaplan-Meier) method, with associated log-log confidence intervals.

LACTATION SECTION.


8.2 Lactation. Risk SummaryThere are no human or animal data available to assess the presence of NULIBRY or its metabolites in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production for the mother.The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mothers clinical need for NULIBRY and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from NULIBRY or from the underlying maternal condition.

MECHANISM OF ACTION SECTION.


12.1 Mechanism of Action. Patients with MoCD Type have mutations in the MOCS1 gene leading to deficient MOCS1A/B dependent synthesis of the intermediate substrate, cPMP. Substrate replacement therapy with NULIBRY provides an exogenous source of cPMP, which is converted to molybdopterin. Molybdopterin is then converted to molybdenum cofactor, which is needed for the activation of molybdenum-dependent enzymes, including sulfite oxidase (SOX), an enzyme that reduces levels of neurotoxic sulfites.

NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY SECTION.


13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY. 13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility. Carcinogenicity studies have not been conducted with fosdenopterin.Fosdenopterin was not genotoxic in standard battery of in vitro (bacterial reverse mutation and human lymphocyte chromosomal aberration) and in vivo (rodent bone marrow micronucleus) assays.Fertility studies have not been conducted with fosdenopterin.. 13.2 Animal Toxicology and/or Pharmacology. Fosdenopterin has demonstrated phototoxic potential in an animal study at doses equal to and greater than 4.5 times the maximum recommended human dose (based on human equivalent dose comparison). In this study, which was conducted in pigmented rats, intravenous (bolus) administration of fosdenopterin for three consecutive days followed by ultraviolet radiation (UVR) exposure resulted in dose-dependent cutaneous skin reactions (erythema, edema, flaking, and eschar) and ophthalmic and histopathologic changes indicative of phototoxicity [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].

PEDIATRIC USE SECTION.


8.4 Pediatric Use. Safety and effectiveness of NULIBRY for the treatment of MoCD Type have been established in pediatric patients starting from birth. Use of NULIBRY for this indication is supported by evidence from two open-label studies (Studies and 2) and one observational study (Study 3), in which 13 pediatric patients aged birth to years of age were treated with NULIBRY or rcPMP. Pediatric use information is discussed throughout the labeling.Animal studies have identified that NULIBRY has phototoxic potential. Advise NULIBRY-treated patients or their caregivers to avoid patient exposure to direct sunlight and artificial UV light exposure (i.e., UVA or UVB phototherapy) and adopt precautionary measures [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) and Nonclinical Toxicology (13.2)].

PHARMACODYNAMICS SECTION.


12.2 Pharmacodynamics. In MoCD Type A, the lack of effective SOX leads to elevated levels of the neurotoxic sulfite, S-sulfocysteine (SSC). Treatment with NULIBRY resulted in reduction in the level of urinary SSC normalized to creatinine and the reduction was sustained with long-term treatment with NULIBRY [see Clinical Studies (14)].. Cardiac ElectrophysiologyA thorough QT study of NULIBRY has not been conducted.

PHARMACOKINETICS SECTION.


12.3 Pharmacokinetics. The pharmacokinetics of fosdenopterin in healthy adult subjects following single intravenous NULIBRY infusion are summarized in Table 3. The area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) and the maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) of fosdenopterin increased in an approximately proportional manner with increasing doses.Table 3Mean (SD) Pharmacokinetic Parameters Following Single Intravenous Dose of Fosdenopterin in Healthy SubjectsParameter0.075 mg/kg0.075 mg/kg, 0.24 mg/kg, and 0.68 mg/kg doses are 0.08, 0.27, and 0.76 times the recommended maximum dose, respectively. 0.24 mg/kg 0.68 mg/kg Cmax (ng/mL)285 (57)873 (99)2800 (567)AUC0-inf (ngh/mL)523 (75)1790 (213)5960 (1820). DistributionThe volume of distribution (Vd) of fosdenopterin was approximately 300 mL/kg. The plasma protein binding of fosdenopterin ranged from to 12%.. EliminationThe mean total body clearance (CL) of fosdenopterin ranged from 167 to 195 mL/h/kg. The mean half-life of fosdenopterin ranged from 1.2 to 1.7 hours.. MetabolismFosdenopterin is predominantly metabolized through nonenzymatic degradation processes to Compound Z, an inactive oxidation product of endogenous cPMP.. ExcretionRenal clearance of fosdenopterin accounts for approximately 40% of total body clearance.. Specific PopulationsThe effect of renal and hepatic impairment on the pharmacokinetics of fosdenopterin is unknown.. Pediatric PatientsPharmacokinetic properties of fosdenopterin in pediatric MoCD Type patients are similar to healthy adult subjects.. Drug Interaction Studies. In Vitro Studies. Cytochrome P450 (CYP) Enzymes: Fosdenopterin does not inhibit CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, or CYP3A4/5. Fosdenopterin does not induce CYP1A2, CYP2B6, or CYP3A4.. Transporter Systems: Fosdenopterin is weak inhibitor of MATE2-K and OAT1, but does not inhibit P-gp, BCRP, OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OCT2, OAT3, and MATE1. Fosdenopterin is weak substrate for MATE1, but is not substrate of P-gp, BCRP, OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OCT2, OAT1, OAT3, or MATE2-K.

PREGNANCY SECTION.


8.1 Pregnancy. Risk SummaryThere are no available data on NULIBRY use in pregnant women to evaluate for drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. Animal reproduction toxicology studies have not been conducted with fosdenopterin.The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. All pregnancies have 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 miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies are 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively.

SPL UNCLASSIFIED SECTION.


2.1 Patient Selection. Start NULIBRY if the patient has diagnosis or presumptive diagnosis of MoCD Type A.In patients with presumptive diagnosis of MoCD Type A, confirm the diagnosis of MoCD Type immediately after initiation of NULIBRY treatment.

Advise NULIBRY-treated patients or their caregivers to avoid patient exposure to direct sunlight and artificial UV light exposure (i.e., UVA or UVB phototherapy) and adopt precautionary measures [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) and Nonclinical Toxicology (13.2)]. 8.5 Geriatric Use. MoCD Type is largely disease of pediatric patients. Clinical studies of NULIBRY did not include patients 65 years of age and older.. 8.6 Adult Use. The safety and effectiveness of NULIBRY for the treatment of adults with MoCD Type have been established. Use of NULIBRY in adults for this indication is based on an adequate and well- controlled clinical investigation in pediatric patients [see Clinical Studies (14)].

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS SECTION.


5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS. Potential for Photosensitivity: Advise patients/caregivers to avoid patient exposure to sunlight, and to have the patient wear sunscreen, protective clothing, and sunglasses when exposed to the sun. If photosensitivity occurs, advise caregivers/patients to seek medical attention immediately and consider dermatological evaluation. (5.1, 13.2). 5.1 Potential for Photosensitivity. Animal studies have identified that NULIBRY has phototoxic potential [see Nonclinical Toxicology (13.2)]. Advise NULIBRY-treated patients or their caregivers to avoid or minimize patient exposure to direct sunlight and artificial UV light exposure (i.e., UVA or UVB phototherapy) and adopt precautionary measures (e.g., have the patient wear protective clothing and hats, use broad spectrum sunscreen with high sun protection factor (SPF) in patients months of age and older, and wear sunglasses when exposed to the sun). If photosensitivity occurs, advise caregivers/patients to seek medical attention immediately and consider dermatological evaluation.
