ADVERSE REACTIONS SECTION.
6 ADVERSE REACTIONS. The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling:Elevated Liver Transaminase Levels [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)] Gastrointestinal Adverse Reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)] Elevated Liver Transaminase Levels [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)] Gastrointestinal Adverse Reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)] Most common adverse reactions (incidence >=5%) are diarrhea, abdominal pain (including abdominal pain upper), vomiting, alanine aminotransferase increased (ALT), and aspartate aminotransferase increased (AST). 6.1) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact UCB, Inc. at 1-844-599-2273 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 KYGEVVI was evaluated in prospective, open-label, single-arm study in pediatric and adult patients with genetically confirmed TK2d previously treated with pyrimidine nucleosides (Trial 1). Additional safety information was derived from retrospective chart review studies (Study 1, Study 2) and from an expanded access program [see Clinical Studies (14)] Permanent discontinuation of KYGEVVI due to an adverse reaction occurred in 9% of patients (Trial 1, Study 1, and Study 2). The adverse reactions which resulted in permanent discontinuation of KYGEVVI in >2% of patients were diarrhea (3%) and elevated liver enzymes (3%). In the expanded access program, diarrhea resulted in permanent discontinuation in patients.Dose reductions of KYGEVVI due to an adverse reaction occurred in 22% of patients (Trial 1, Study 1, and Study 2). Adverse reactions which required dose reduction in >2% of patients included diarrhea (21%) and abdominal pain (3%).Diarrhea resulted in hospitalization in pediatric patients (Study and expanded access program).Adverse Reactions from Trial 1A total of 47 patients, between the ages of 0.7 and 74 years of age at enrollment, received KYGEVVI or pyrimidine nucleosides dosages up to 800 mg/kg/day [see Clinical Studies (14)] KYGEVVI is not approved for use in patients with an age of TK2d symptom onset 12 years. The mean (SD) KYGEVVI or pyrimidine nucleosides exposure during Trial was 6.6 (2) years. Table summarizes the adverse reactions reported in >= 5% patients treated with KYGEVVI or pyrimidine nucleosides.Table 3: Adverse Reactions That Occurred in >=5% Adult and Pediatric Patients with TK2d Treated with KYGEVVI or Pyrimidine Nucleosides (Trial 1)Adverse reactionsTreated Patients (N=47) (%) Diarrhea34 (72)Abdominal pain (including abdominal pain upper)11 (23)Vomiting10 (21)Alanine aminotransferase increased (ALT)10 (21)Aspartate aminotransferase increased (AST)8 (17)Adverse reactions, vomiting and elevated liver transaminases, were observed in higher percentage of pediatric patients than in adult patients. In Trial 1, vomiting occurred in 28% (9/32) of pediatric patients compared to 7% (1/15) of adult patients. Elevated liver transaminases occurred in 25% (8/32) for ALT and 22% (7/32) for AST of pediatric patients compared to 13% (2/15) for ALT and 7% (1/15) for AST of adult patients.Laboratory Adverse ReactionElevated liver enzymes have been observed as clinical manifestation of TK2d. In Trial and Study 1, elevations in alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and/or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) occurred in 28% (14/50) and 22% (11/50) of patients respectively. In Trial 1, of all the patients who started treatment with elevated AST/ALT at baseline, 5% had last post-baseline ALT values that were higher severity than the baseline severity while continuing treatment [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].

CARCINOGENESIS & MUTAGENESIS & IMPAIRMENT OF FERTILITY SECTION.
13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility. CarcinogenesisAnimal studies to evaluate the carcinogenic potential of doxecitine and doxribtimine have not been conducted.MutagenesisDoxecitine and doxribtimine were not mutagenic or clastogenic in an in vitrobacterial reverse mutation (Ames) and an in vivorat micronucleus assay. Doxecitine and doxribtimine induced chromosomal aberrations in the absence of metabolic activation in an in vitrocytogenetic study in human lymphocytes. One compound (alpha-hydroxythymidine) originating from doxribtimine starting material and present in the final drug product was positive for mutagenesis in the Ames assay and positive for clastogenesis in human peripheral lymphocytes when tested alone. Impairment of FertilityDoxecitine and doxribtimine had no effect on male or female fertility or early embryonic development at doses up to 2000 mg/kg/day in rats (1131 times and 1223 times the MRHD in males and females respectively for 400 mg/kg/day doxecitine and 1056 times and 425 times the MRHD in males and females respectively for 400 mg/kg/day doxribtimine, based on plasma exposure).

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY SECTION.
12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY. 12.1 Mechanism of Action. Administration of KYGEVVI is intended to incorporate the pyrimidine nucleosides, deoxycytidine and deoxythymidine, into skeletal muscle mitochondrial deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). This action restores mitochondrial DNA copy number in TK2d mutant mice.. 12.2 Pharmacodynamics. The exposure-response relationship and time course of pharmacodynamic response for the safety and effectiveness of KYGEVVI have not been fully characterized.. 12.3 Pharmacokinetics. Following oral administration of doxecitine and doxribtimine in healthy adult subjects, the baseline-adjusted maximum plasma concentration (C max) and area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) increased in less than dose proportional manner for doxecitine at doses ranging from 43 mg/kg to 133 mg/kg and more than dose proportional manner for doxribtimine at doses ranging from 43 mg/kg to 133 mg/kg. There is minimal or no accumulation of doxecitine and doxribtimine following multiple dose administrations. Following oral administration of doxecitine and doxribtimine at the recommended maintenance dosage of 800 mg/kg/day under fed conditions in 18 TK2d pediatric and adult subjects, the estimated baseline-unadjusted geometric mean maxat steady state was 12 ng/mL and 19 ng/mL for doxecitine and doxribtimine, respectively, and the geometric mean AUC from time to 24 hours (AUC 0-24hr) was 108 ngh/mL and 191 ngh/mL for doxecitine and doxribtimine, respectively. Inter-subject variability (geometric CV%) in maxand AUC 0-24hvalues of doxecitine and doxribtimine were greater than 70%. AbsorptionThe absolute bioavailability of doxecitine and doxribtimine following oral administration has not been determined. The median time to peak plasma concentration (T max) was approximately hours for doxecitine and hours for doxribtimine. Effect of FoodFollowing an oral administration of 133 mg/kg doxecitine and 133 mg/kg doxribtimine with high-fat, high-calorie meal in healthy adult subjects, baseline-adjusted plasma maxand AUC 0-tincreased by 79% and 137%, respectively, for doxecitine; and increased by 27% and 74%, respectively, for doxribtimine, compared to fasted conditions [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)] DistributionIn vitro plasma protein binding of doxecitine and doxribtimine was less than 10% over the concentration range between 0.23 mcg/mL and 23 mcg/mL.EliminationThe mean half-life was approximately hour for doxecitine and hours for doxribtimine following single oral administration of 133 mg/kg doxecitine and 133 mg/kg doxribtimine under fed conditions in healthy adult subjects.MetabolismDoxecitine and doxribtimine are primarily degraded (catabolized) by cytidine deaminase and thymidine phosphorylase, respectively, to their nucleobases and the 2-deoxy--D-ribose 1-phosphate moiety. Intermediate products of doxecitine catabolism are deoxyuridine, uracil, and dihydrouracil with the end products -alanine, ammonia, and carbon dioxide (CO 2). Thymine, the pyrimidine nucleobase of doxribtimine, is subsequently catabolized to dihydrothymine and ultimately to -amino-isobutyric acid and CO 2. Doxecitine and doxribtimine are not known to be metabolized by cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms.ExcretionUrinary excretion of intact doxecitine and doxribtimine was <1% of the dose in healthy subjects following an oral administration of doxecitine and doxribtimine.Specific PopulationsMale and Female PatientsThe pharmacokinetics of doxecitine and doxribtimine were not significantly different between male and female subjects.Patients with Renal ImpairmentThe pharmacokinetics of doxecitine and doxribtimine in subjects with moderate (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] >= 30 and <= 59 mL/min/1.73 2) or severe (eGFR >= 15 and <= 29 mL/min/1.73 2) renal impairment were compared with healthy subjects with normal renal function following single oral administration of 133 mg/kg doxecitine and 133 mg/kg doxribtimine. Baseline-adjusted plasma doxecitine AUC was 122% and 66% higher in subjects with moderate and severe renal impairment, respectively, compared with matched control subjects with normal renal function. Baseline adjusted plasma doxribtimine AUC was 447% and 148% higher in subjects with moderate and severe renal impairment, respectively, compared with matched control subjects with normal renal function [see Use in Specific Populations (8.6)] Patients with Hepatic ImpairmentNo studies have been conducted to evaluate the effect of hepatic impairment on the pharmacokinetics of doxecitine and doxribtimine.Drug Interaction StudiesIn Vitro StudiesCYP enzymes: Doxecitine and doxribtimine are not inducers, inhibitors, or substrates of CYP isozymes at clinically relevant concentrations. Transporter systems: Doxecitine and doxribtimine do not inhibit P-glycoprotein (P-gp), BCRP, BSEP, OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OAT1, OAT3, OCT1, OCT2, MATE1, or MATE2-K at clinically relevant concentrations. Doxribtimine may be substrate of BCRP, but its clinical significance is unknown.

CLINICAL STUDIES SECTION.
14 CLINICAL STUDIES. The efficacy of KYGEVVI for the treatment of patients with TK2d, with an age of symptom onset on or before 12 years of age, was established based on data from one Phase clinical study (Trial 1), two retrospective chart review studies (Study 1, Study 2), and an expanded access program. The survival in treated patients was compared with survival in an untreated external control group comprised of untreated patients from published literature and Study 2.Trial (NCT03845712) is prospective, open-label, single-arm study in 47 patients with genetically confirmed TK2d previously treated with pyrimidine nucleosides. Thirty-eight of these 47 patients have an age of TK2d symptom onset <=12 years; none of the 38 patients discontinued treatment. The initial oral dose of KYGEVVI was matched to the patients pyrimidine nucleoside dose of 260-800 mg/kg/day upon entering the study in patients with an age of TK2d symptom onset <= 12 years, and dosage was titrated, as needed, over maximum of weeks to the maintenance dose of 800 mg/kg/day.Study (NCT03701568) was retrospective chart review study in 38 patients with genetically confirmed TK2d treated with pyrimidine nucleosides. Twenty-nine of these patients had an age of TK2d symptom onset <=12 years; none of the 29 patients discontinued treatment. Thirty-five of these 38 patients were later enrolled in Trial to receive treatment with KYGEVVI and one was later enrolled in Study 2. KYGEVVI was not administered in Study 1. Patients enrolled in Study were receiving pyrimidine nucleoside treatment at doses 160-800 mg/kg/day.Study (NCT05017818) was retrospective chart review study in 61 patients with genetically confirmed TK2d (43 untreated patients and 18 patients treated with pyrimidine nucleoside therapy). Nine of these 61 patients were also included in the expanded access program and patient was included in Study 1. Twenty-seven of the 43 untreated patients had an age of TK2d symptom onset <=12 years, and 13 of the 18 treated patients had an age of TK2d symptom onset <=12 years. Twenty-two untreated patients were included in the untreated external control group used to evaluate survival. Of the 18 treated patients, (33%) discontinued treatment due to an adverse reaction. KYGEVVI was not administered in Study 2. Patients enrolled in Study were receiving pyrimidine nucleoside treatment at doses 200-1200 mg/kg/day.Expanded Access ProgramThe expanded access program data included 43 patients receiving KYGEVVI; patients were included in Study 2.Efficacy ResultsA total of 82 patients with genetically confirmed TK2d and the age of symptom onset <=12 years were treated with KYGEVVI or pyrimidine nucleosides. Efficacy was assessed by comparing overall survival in the treated patients to an external control group of untreated patients matched to treated patients using age of TK2d symptom onset (<= years or >2 to <= 12 years). total of 78 matched pairs were identified.Of the 78 treated patients included in the survival analysis, 54% were male and 36% were of Hispanic or Latino ethnicity. Eighty-two percent of patients were White, 4% Black or African American, 5% Asian, 3% Other, and 1% American Indian or Alaska Native. The median age of TK2d symptom onset was 1.5 years (range: 0.01 to 12 years). The median duration of treatment was years (range: day to 12 years) and the median dose received was 762 mg/kg/day (range: 260 to 800 mg/kg/day).Treatment reduced the overall risk of death from treatment start by approximately 86% (95% CI: 61%, 96%) (Table 4, Figure 1).Table 4: Overall Survival in Patients with TK2d (Age of Symptom Onset <=12 Years) Treated with KYGEVVI Versus Matched Untreated Patients (External Control) Treated patients were originally from Trial (n=9), Study (n=27), Study (n=11), and the expanded access program (n=31). Untreated patients were from published literature (n=57) and Study (n=21).

NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY SECTION.
13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY. 13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility. CarcinogenesisAnimal studies to evaluate the carcinogenic potential of doxecitine and doxribtimine have not been conducted.MutagenesisDoxecitine and doxribtimine were not mutagenic or clastogenic in an in vitrobacterial reverse mutation (Ames) and an in vivorat micronucleus assay. Doxecitine and doxribtimine induced chromosomal aberrations in the absence of metabolic activation in an in vitrocytogenetic study in human lymphocytes. One compound (alpha-hydroxythymidine) originating from doxribtimine starting material and present in the final drug product was positive for mutagenesis in the Ames assay and positive for clastogenesis in human peripheral lymphocytes when tested alone. Impairment of FertilityDoxecitine and doxribtimine had no effect on male or female fertility or early embryonic development at doses up to 2000 mg/kg/day in rats (1131 times and 1223 times the MRHD in males and females respectively for 400 mg/kg/day doxecitine and 1056 times and 425 times the MRHD in males and females respectively for 400 mg/kg/day doxribtimine, based on plasma exposure).

PHARMACOKINETICS SECTION.
12.3 Pharmacokinetics. Following oral administration of doxecitine and doxribtimine in healthy adult subjects, the baseline-adjusted maximum plasma concentration (C max) and area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) increased in less than dose proportional manner for doxecitine at doses ranging from 43 mg/kg to 133 mg/kg and more than dose proportional manner for doxribtimine at doses ranging from 43 mg/kg to 133 mg/kg. There is minimal or no accumulation of doxecitine and doxribtimine following multiple dose administrations. Following oral administration of doxecitine and doxribtimine at the recommended maintenance dosage of 800 mg/kg/day under fed conditions in 18 TK2d pediatric and adult subjects, the estimated baseline-unadjusted geometric mean maxat steady state was 12 ng/mL and 19 ng/mL for doxecitine and doxribtimine, respectively, and the geometric mean AUC from time to 24 hours (AUC 0-24hr) was 108 ngh/mL and 191 ngh/mL for doxecitine and doxribtimine, respectively. Inter-subject variability (geometric CV%) in maxand AUC 0-24hvalues of doxecitine and doxribtimine were greater than 70%. AbsorptionThe absolute bioavailability of doxecitine and doxribtimine following oral administration has not been determined. The median time to peak plasma concentration (T max) was approximately hours for doxecitine and hours for doxribtimine. Effect of FoodFollowing an oral administration of 133 mg/kg doxecitine and 133 mg/kg doxribtimine with high-fat, high-calorie meal in healthy adult subjects, baseline-adjusted plasma maxand AUC 0-tincreased by 79% and 137%, respectively, for doxecitine; and increased by 27% and 74%, respectively, for doxribtimine, compared to fasted conditions [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)] DistributionIn vitro plasma protein binding of doxecitine and doxribtimine was less than 10% over the concentration range between 0.23 mcg/mL and 23 mcg/mL.EliminationThe mean half-life was approximately hour for doxecitine and hours for doxribtimine following single oral administration of 133 mg/kg doxecitine and 133 mg/kg doxribtimine under fed conditions in healthy adult subjects.MetabolismDoxecitine and doxribtimine are primarily degraded (catabolized) by cytidine deaminase and thymidine phosphorylase, respectively, to their nucleobases and the 2-deoxy--D-ribose 1-phosphate moiety. Intermediate products of doxecitine catabolism are deoxyuridine, uracil, and dihydrouracil with the end products -alanine, ammonia, and carbon dioxide (CO 2). Thymine, the pyrimidine nucleobase of doxribtimine, is subsequently catabolized to dihydrothymine and ultimately to -amino-isobutyric acid and CO 2. Doxecitine and doxribtimine are not known to be metabolized by cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms.ExcretionUrinary excretion of intact doxecitine and doxribtimine was <1% of the dose in healthy subjects following an oral administration of doxecitine and doxribtimine.Specific PopulationsMale and Female PatientsThe pharmacokinetics of doxecitine and doxribtimine were not significantly different between male and female subjects.Patients with Renal ImpairmentThe pharmacokinetics of doxecitine and doxribtimine in subjects with moderate (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] >= 30 and <= 59 mL/min/1.73 2) or severe (eGFR >= 15 and <= 29 mL/min/1.73 2) renal impairment were compared with healthy subjects with normal renal function following single oral administration of 133 mg/kg doxecitine and 133 mg/kg doxribtimine. Baseline-adjusted plasma doxecitine AUC was 122% and 66% higher in subjects with moderate and severe renal impairment, respectively, compared with matched control subjects with normal renal function. Baseline adjusted plasma doxribtimine AUC was 447% and 148% higher in subjects with moderate and severe renal impairment, respectively, compared with matched control subjects with normal renal function [see Use in Specific Populations (8.6)] Patients with Hepatic ImpairmentNo studies have been conducted to evaluate the effect of hepatic impairment on the pharmacokinetics of doxecitine and doxribtimine.Drug Interaction StudiesIn Vitro StudiesCYP enzymes: Doxecitine and doxribtimine are not inducers, inhibitors, or substrates of CYP isozymes at clinically relevant concentrations. Transporter systems: Doxecitine and doxribtimine do not inhibit P-glycoprotein (P-gp), BCRP, BSEP, OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OAT1, OAT3, OCT1, OCT2, MATE1, or MATE2-K at clinically relevant concentrations. Doxribtimine may be substrate of BCRP, but its clinical significance is unknown.

PREGNANCY SECTION.
8.1 Pregnancy. Risk SummaryThere are no available data on KYGEVVI use during pregnancy to evaluate for drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or other adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. Endogenous pyrimidine nucleosides are transported across the placenta. There are risks for adverse maternal and fetal outcomes during pregnancy with mitochondrial myopathies, including TK2 deficiency see Clinical Considerations ). In animal reproduction studies, oral administration of doxecitine and doxribtimine to pregnant rats and rabbits during organogenesis resulted in maternal and fetal toxicities in the rabbit at dose exposures 1233 and 811 times the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) of 400 mg/kg/day doxecitine and 400 mg/kg/day doxribtimine, respectively, based on plasma exposure, but were not observed in the rat see Data ). The 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 is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20% respectively.Clinical ConsiderationsDisease-Associated Maternal and/or Embryo/Fetal RiskMitochondrial myopathies are associated with increased adverse perinatal outcomes, including preterm birth, pre-eclampsia and gestational diabetes.DataAnimal DataIn an embryofetal development study in pregnant rats, once daily oral doses of 200, 600, and 2000 mg/kg/day doxecitine and doxribtimine were administered throughout organogenesis between gestation day (GD) to 17. No maternal or embryofetal toxicity was observed up to 2000 mg/kg/day (1223 times and 425 times the MRHD of doxecitine and doxribtimine, respectively, based on plasma exposure).In an embryofetal development study in pregnant rabbits, once daily oral doses of 200, 600, and 2000 mg/kg/day doxecitine and doxribtimine were administered throughout organogenesis between GD and GD 19. Marked maternal toxicity and fetal malformations (dilated aorta with an associated narrow pulmonary trunk) were observed at the highest dose (1233 times and 811 times the MRHD of doxecitine and doxribtimine, respectively, based on plasma exposure). The maternal and fetal no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) in rabbits (600 mg/kg/day) was associated with maternal plasma exposures 729 times and 126 times the MRHD of 400 mg/kg/day doxecitine and 400 mg/kg/day doxribtimine, respectively.

RENAL IMPAIRMENT SUBSECTION.
8.6 Renal Impairment. Plasma concentrations of doxecitine and doxribtimine increased in patients with moderate or severe renal impairment. The pharmacokinetics (PK) of doxecitine and doxribtimine have not been evaluated in patients with mild renal impairment. An appropriate dosage adjustment of KYGEVVI in patients with renal impairment could not be determined because renal impairment had distinct effects on the PK of doxecitine and PK of doxribtimine, and it is not feasible to separately adjust the dosage for doxecitine or doxribtimine contained in KYGEVVI [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].

The pharmacokinetics (PK) of doxecitine and doxribtimine have not been evaluated in patients with mild renal impairment. An appropriate dosage adjustment of KYGEVVI in patients with renal impairment could not be determined because renal impairment had distinct effects on the PK of doxecitine and PK of doxribtimine, and it is not feasible to separately adjust the dosage for doxecitine or doxribtimine contained in KYGEVVI [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS SECTION.
5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS. Elevated Liver Transaminase Levels: Obtain baseline liver transaminase (ALT, AST) and total bilirubin levels prior to treatment initiation with KYGEVVI. If signs or symptoms consistent with liver injury are observed, interrupt treatment. Consider permanently discontinuing KYGEVVI if signs/symptoms consistent with liver injury persist or worsen. Monitor patients yearly and as clinically indicated. 5.1) Gastrointestinal Adverse Reactions: Reduce KYGEVVI dosage or interrupt treatment based on severity of diarrhea and/or vomiting. If persistent severe diarrhea and/or vomiting occurs, consider discontinuing KYGEVVI permanently. 5.2) Elevated Liver Transaminase Levels: Obtain baseline liver transaminase (ALT, AST) and total bilirubin levels prior to treatment initiation with KYGEVVI. If signs or symptoms consistent with liver injury are observed, interrupt treatment. Consider permanently discontinuing KYGEVVI if signs/symptoms consistent with liver injury persist or worsen. Monitor patients yearly and as clinically indicated. 5.1) Gastrointestinal Adverse Reactions: Reduce KYGEVVI dosage or interrupt treatment based on severity of diarrhea and/or vomiting. If persistent severe diarrhea and/or vomiting occurs, consider discontinuing KYGEVVI permanently. 5.2) 5.1 Elevated Liver Transaminase Levels. Elevated liver transaminase [alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and/or aspartate aminotransferase (AST)] levels were reported in patients treated with KYGEVVI [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)] In Study 1, two patients permanently discontinued treatment with KYGEVVI upon recurrence of elevated liver enzymes after rechallenge at reduced dose. Obtain baseline liver transaminase (ALT, AST) and total bilirubin levels in patients prior to treatment initiation with KYGEVVI. If signs or symptoms consistent with liver injury are observed, interrupt treatment with KYGEVVI until liver transaminase (ALT, AST) and total bilirubin levels have either returned to baseline or stabilized at new baseline value. Consider permanently discontinuing KYGEVVI if signs or symptoms consistent with liver injury persist or worsen. Monitor liver transaminases and total bilirubin levels yearly and as clinically indicated [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)] . 5.2 Gastrointestinal Adverse Reactions. Diarrhea and vomiting leading to hospitalization, dose reduction, and permanent discontinuation were reported in patients treated with KYGEVVI [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)] Based on the severity of the diarrhea and/or vomiting, reduce the dosage of KYGEVVI or interrupt treatment until diarrhea and/or vomiting improves or returns to baseline. Consider restarting KYGEVVI at the last tolerated dose, and increase the dose as tolerated. For persistent or recurring diarrhea and/or vomiting, consider discontinuing KYGEVVI permanently and provide supportive care with electrolyte repletion as clinically indicated.
