LACTATION SECTION.


8.2 Lactation. Risk SummaryLuspatercept-aamt was detected in milk of lactating rats. When drug is present in animal milk, it is likely that the drug will be present in human milk. There are no data on the presence of REBLOZYL in human milk, the effects on the breastfed child, or the effects on milk production. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in the breastfed child, advise patients that breastfeeding is not recommended during treatment with REBLOZYL, and for months after the last dose.

MECHANISM OF ACTION SECTION.


12.1 Mechanism of Action. Luspatercept-aamt is recombinant fusion protein that binds several endogenous TGF- superfamily ligands, thereby diminishing Smad2/3 signaling. Luspatercept-aamt promoted erythroid maturation through differentiation of late-stage erythroid precursors (normoblasts) in mice. In models of -thalassemia and MDS, luspatercept-aamt decreased abnormally elevated Smad2/3 signaling and improved hematology parameters associated with ineffective erythropoiesis in mice.

12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY. 12.1 Mechanism of Action. Luspatercept-aamt is recombinant fusion protein that binds several endogenous TGF- superfamily ligands, thereby diminishing Smad2/3 signaling. Luspatercept-aamt promoted erythroid maturation through differentiation of late-stage erythroid precursors (normoblasts) in mice. In models of -thalassemia and MDS, luspatercept-aamt decreased abnormally elevated Smad2/3 signaling and improved hematology parameters associated with ineffective erythropoiesis in mice.. 12.2 Pharmacodynamics. Increases in Hemoglobin in Patients with Low RBC Transfusion BurdenIn patients having received 4 units of RBC transfusion within weeks prior to study, hemoglobin increased within days of initiating REBLOZYL and correlated with the time to luspatercept-aamt maximum serum concentration (Cmax). The greatest Hgb increase occurred after the first dose; approximately 0.75 g/dL at dose of 0.6 to 1.25 times the recommended starting dose for beta thalassemia, or approximately g/dL at dose of 0.75 to 1.75 times the recommended starting dose for MDS. Additional smaller increases were observed after subsequent doses. Hemoglobin levels returned to baseline approximately to weeks from the last dose following administration of luspatercept-aamt (0.6 to 1.75 mg/kg). Increasing luspatercept-aamt serum exposure (AUC) was associated with greater Hgb increase in patients with beta thalassemia or MDS who had baseline transfusion burden 4 units/8 weeks. Increasing luspatercept-aamt serum exposure (time-averaged AUC) was associated with greater probability of achieving transfusion independence for at least consecutive weeks in patients with MDS requiring transfusions (>= units of RBC transfusion within weeks). 12.3 Pharmacokinetics. Luspatercept-aamt exhibited linear pharmacokinetics (PK) over the dose range of 0.2 to 1.25 mg/kg (0.2 to 1.25 times the recommended starting dosage) in patients with beta thalassemia, and from 0.125 mg/kg to 1.75 mg/kg in patients with MDS. The mean (% coefficient of variation [%CV]) steady-state AUC at the starting dose of mg/kg was 126 (35.9%) dayug/mL for patients with beta thalassemia and 145 (38.3%) dayug/mL for patients with MDS. Luspatercept-aamt serum concentration reached steady state after doses when administered every weeks. The accumulation ratio of luspatercept-aamt was approximately 1.5.. AbsorptionThe median (range) time to maximum concentration (Tmax) of luspatercept-aamt was observed at approximately [6 to 10] days post-dose in adult patients with beta thalassemia or [5 to 21] days post-dose in adult patients with MDS. The absorption of luspatercept-aamt was not significantly affected by the subcutaneous injection sites (upper arm, thigh, or abdomen). DistributionThe mean (%CV) apparent volume of distribution (Vd/F) of luspatercept-aamt was 7.1 (26.7%) for patients with beta thalassemia, and 9.7 (26.5%) for patients with MDS. EliminationThe mean (%CV) half-life (t1/2) of luspatercept-aamt was approximately 11 (25.7%) days and the mean (%CV) apparent total clearance (CL/F) was 0.44 (38.5%) L/day in patients with beta thalassemia. The mean (%CV) t1/2 of luspatercept-aamt was approximately 13 (31.6%) days and the mean (%CV) CL/F was 0.52 (41.2%) L/day in patients with MDS.. MetabolismLuspatercept-aamt is expected to be catabolized into amino acids by general protein degradation processes in multiple tissues.. Specific PopulationsNo clinically significant differences in the luspatercept-aamt PK was observed based on age (18 to 95 years), sex, race/ethnicity (Asian, White), mild to severe hepatic impairment (total bilirubin <= upper limit of normal [ULN] and aspartate aminotransaminase [AST] or alanine transaminase [ALT] ULN, or total bilirubin ULN and any AST or ALT), mild to moderate renal impairment (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] 30 to 89 mL/min/1.73 m2), baseline albumin (30 to 56 g/L), baseline serum erythropoietin (2.4 to 2450 U/L), red blood cell (RBC) transfusion burden (0 to 43 units/24 weeks), beta thalassemia genotype (0/0 vs. non-0/0), splenectomy, and ring sideroblasts status in MDS (negative vs. positive). The effect of AST or ALT >3 ULN and the effect of severe renal impairment (eGFR <30 mL/min/1.73 m2) on luspatercept-aamt PK is unknown. Body WeightThe apparent CL/F and Vd/F of luspatercept-aamt increased with increasing body weight in patients with beta thalassemia (34 to 97 kg) and in patients with MDS (46 to 124 kg). Drug Interaction Studies. Effect of Iron-chelating Agents on Luspatercept-aamtNo clinically significant differences in luspatercept-aamt PK were observed when used concomitantly with iron-chelating agents.

CLINICAL STUDIES SECTION.


14 CLINICAL STUDIES. 14.1Beta Thalassemia. The efficacy of REBLOZYL was evaluated in adult patients with beta thalassemia in the BELIEVE trial (NCT02604433). BELIEVE was multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in which (n=336) patients with beta thalassemia requiring regular red blood cell transfusions (6-20 RBC units per 24 weeks) with no transfusion-free period greater than 35 days during that period were randomized 2:1 to REBLOZYL (n=224) or placebo (n=112). In BELIEVE, REBLOZYL was administered subcutaneously once every weeks as long as reduction in transfusion requirement was observed or until unacceptable toxicity. All patients were eligible to receive best supportive care, which included RBC transfusions; iron-chelating agents; use of antibiotic, antiviral, and antifungal therapy; and/or nutritional support, as needed.The BELIEVE trial excluded patients with diagnosis of Hemoglobin S/-thalassemia or isolated alpha ()-thalassemia (e.g., Hemoglobin H) or who had major organ damage (liver disease, heart disease, lung disease, renal insufficiency). Patients with recent deep vein thrombosis or stroke or recent use of ESA, immunosuppressant, or hydroxyurea therapy were also excluded. The median age was 30 years (range: 18-66). The trial was comprised of patients who were 42% male, 54.2% White, 34.8% Asian, and 0.3% Black or African American. The percent of patients reporting their race as other was 7.7%, and race was not collected or reported for 3% of patients.

The efficacy of REBLOZYL was evaluated in the MEDALIST trial (NCT02631070), multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in patients with IPSS-R very low, low, or intermediate-risk myelodysplastic syndromes who have ring sideroblasts and require red blood cell transfusions (2 or more RBC units over weeks). For eligibility, patients were required to have had an inadequate response to prior treatment with an erythropoiesis-stimulating agent (ESA), be intolerant of ESAs, or have serum erythropoietin 200 U/L. The MEDALIST trial excluded patients with deletion 5q (del 5q), white blood cell count 13 Gi/L, neutrophils 0.5 Gi/L, platelets 50 Gi/L, or with prior use of disease modifying agent for treatment of MDS. The MEDALIST trial included 229 patients randomized 2:1 to REBLOZYL (n=153) or placebo (n=76). Randomization was stratified by baseline RBC transfusion burden and baseline IPSS-R. Treatment was started at mg/kg subcutaneously every weeks; the dose could be increased after completion of the first cycles if the patient had at least one RBC transfusion in the prior weeks. Two dose level increases were allowed (to 1.33 mg/kg and to 1.75 mg/kg). Doses were held and subsequently reduced for adverse reactions, reduced if the hemoglobin increased by >= g/dL from the prior cycle, and held if the predose hemoglobin was >= 11.5 g/dL. All patients received best supportive care, which included RBC transfusions as needed. The primary efficacy assessment was conducted after completion of 24 weeks on study drug. Patients with decrease in transfusion requirement or increase in hemoglobin could continue on blinded study drug thereafter until unacceptable toxicity, loss of efficacy, or disease progression.The median age of the 229 study participants was 71 years (range: 26, 95 years). The trial population was 63% male and 69% White.

The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling:oThrombosis/Thromboembolism [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]oHypertension [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)]. oThrombosis/Thromboembolism [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]. oHypertension [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)]. The most common (>10%) adverse reactions were fatigue, headache, musculoskeletal pain, arthralgia, dizziness/vertigo, nausea, diarrhea, cough, abdominal pain, dyspnea, and hypersensitivity (6.1).To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Bristol-Myers Squibb at 1-888-423-5436 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 data in the WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS reflect exposure to REBLOZYL as single agent administered across range of doses (0.125 mg/kg to 1.75 mg/kg) in 571 patients in trials.. Beta ThalassemiaThe safety of REBLOZYL in patients with beta thalassemia was evaluated in the BELIEVE trial [see Clinical Studies (14.1)]. Key eligibility criteria included adult patients with beta thalassemia (with the exception of patients with hemoglobin or alpha-thalassemia disease) without major organ damage or recent DVT stroke and platelet counts less than or equal to 1000 109/L.Patients received starting dose of REBLOZYL mg/kg subcutaneous injection every weeks. Overall, 53% of patients had their dose increased to 1.25 mg/kg (46% REBLOZYL, = 223) or placebo (66%, = 109). The median duration of treatment was similar between the REBLOZYL and placebo arms (63.3 weeks vs. 62.1 weeks, respectively). Per protocol, patients in the REBLOZYL and placebo arms were to remain on therapy for at least 48 weeks in the double-blind phase of the trial. Among patients receiving REBLOZYL, 94% were exposed for months or longer and 72% were exposed for greater than one year.The median age of patients who received REBLOZYL was 30 years (range: 18, 66); 59% female; 54% White and 36% Asian.Serious adverse reactions occurred in 3.6% of patients on REBLOZYL. Serious adverse reactions reported in 1% of patients were cerebrovascular accident and deep vein thrombosis. fatal adverse reaction occurred in one patient treated with REBLOZYL who died due to an unconfirmed case of AML (M6).Permanent discontinuation due to an adverse reaction (Grades 1-4) occurred in 5.4% of patients who received REBLOZYL. Most frequent adverse reactions requiring permanent discontinuation in patients who received REBLOZYL included arthralgia (1%), back pain (1%), bone pain (<1%), and headache (<1%).Dosage reductions due to an adverse reaction occurred in 2.7% of patients who received REBLOZYL. Most frequent adverse reactions requiring dosage reduction in >0.5% of patients who received REBLOZYL included hypertension and headache.Dosage interruptions due to an adverse reaction occurred in 15.2% of patients who received REBLOZYL. Most frequent adverse reactions requiring dosage interruption in >1% of patients who received REBLOZYL included upper respiratory tract infection, ALT increase, and cough.The most common adverse reactions (at least 10% for REBLOZYL and 1% more than placebo) were headache (26%), bone pain (20%), arthralgia (19%), fatigue (14%), cough (14%), abdominal pain (14%), diarrhea (12%), and dizziness (11%).Table summarizes the adverse reactions in BELIEVE.Table 6: Adverse Drug Reactions (>5%) in Patients with Beta Thalassemia Receiving REBLOZYL with Difference Between Arms of 1% in BELIEVE TrialBody SystemREBLOZYL(N=223)Placebo(N=109) Adverse ReactionAll Gradesn (%)Grades >=3a (%)All Gradesn (%)Grades >=3n (%)a Limited to Grade reactions with the exception of events of Grade hyperuricemia.

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 to luspatercept in the studies described below with the incidence of antibodies in other studies or to other products may be misleading.Of 284 patients with beta thalassemia who were treated with REBLOZYL and evaluable for the presence of anti-luspatercept-aamt antibodies, patients (1.4%) tested positive for treatment-emergent anti-luspatercept-aamt antibodies, including patients (0.7%) who had neutralizing antibodies.Of 260 patients with MDS who were treated with REBLOZYL and evaluable for the presence of anti-luspatercept-aamt antibodies, 23 patients (8.9%) tested positive for treatment-emergent anti-luspatercept-aamt antibodies, including patients (3.5%) who had neutralizing antibodies.Luspatercept-aamt serum concentration tended to decrease in the presence of neutralizing antibodies. There were no severe acute systemic hypersensitivity reactions reported for patients with anti-luspatercept-aamt antibodies in REBLOZYL clinical trials, and there was no association between hypersensitivity type reaction or injection site reaction and presence of anti-luspatercept-aamt antibodies.

CARCINOGENESIS & MUTAGENESIS & IMPAIRMENT OF FERTILITY SECTION.


13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility. No carcinogenicity or mutagenicity studies have been conducted with luspatercept-aamt.In repeat-dose toxicity study, juvenile rats were administered luspatercept-aamt subcutaneously at 1, 3, or 10 mg/kg once every weeks from postnatal day to 91. Hematologic malignancies (granulocytic leukemia, lymphocytic leukemia, malignant lymphoma) were observed at 10 mg/kg resulting in exposures (based on area under the curve [AUC]) approximately 4.4 times the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) of 1.75 mg/kg.In combined male and female fertility and early embryonic development study in rats, luspatercept-aamt was administered subcutaneously to animals at doses of to 15 mg/kg. There were significant reductions in the average numbers of corpora lutea, implantations, and viable embryos in luspatercept-aamt-treated females. Effects on female fertility were observed at the highest dose with exposures (based on AUC) approximately 7-times the MRHD of 1.75 mg/kg. Adverse effects on fertility in female rats were reversible after 14-week recovery period. No adverse effects were noted in male rats.

DESCRIPTION SECTION.


11 DESCRIPTION. Luspatercept-aamt is an erythroid maturation agent. Luspatercept-aamt is receptor fusion protein consisting of modified extracellular domain of the human activin receptor type IIB linked to human IgG1 Fc domain with calculated molecular mass of approximately 76 kD.

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 to luspatercept in the studies described below with the incidence of antibodies in other studies or to other products may be misleading.Of 284 patients with beta thalassemia who were treated with REBLOZYL and evaluable for the presence of anti-luspatercept-aamt antibodies, patients (1.4%) tested positive for treatment-emergent anti-luspatercept-aamt antibodies, including patients (0.7%) who had neutralizing antibodies.Of 260 patients with MDS who were treated with REBLOZYL and evaluable for the presence of anti-luspatercept-aamt antibodies, 23 patients (8.9%) tested positive for treatment-emergent anti-luspatercept-aamt antibodies, including patients (3.5%) who had neutralizing antibodies.Luspatercept-aamt serum concentration tended to decrease in the presence of neutralizing antibodies. There were no severe acute systemic hypersensitivity reactions reported for patients with anti-luspatercept-aamt antibodies in REBLOZYL clinical trials, and there was no association between hypersensitivity type reaction or injection site reaction and presence of anti-luspatercept-aamt antibodies.

NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY SECTION.


13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY. 13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility. No carcinogenicity or mutagenicity studies have been conducted with luspatercept-aamt.In repeat-dose toxicity study, juvenile rats were administered luspatercept-aamt subcutaneously at 1, 3, or 10 mg/kg once every weeks from postnatal day to 91. Hematologic malignancies (granulocytic leukemia, lymphocytic leukemia, malignant lymphoma) were observed at 10 mg/kg resulting in exposures (based on area under the curve [AUC]) approximately 4.4 times the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) of 1.75 mg/kg.In combined male and female fertility and early embryonic development study in rats, luspatercept-aamt was administered subcutaneously to animals at doses of to 15 mg/kg. There were significant reductions in the average numbers of corpora lutea, implantations, and viable embryos in luspatercept-aamt-treated females. Effects on female fertility were observed at the highest dose with exposures (based on AUC) approximately 7-times the MRHD of 1.75 mg/kg. Adverse effects on fertility in female rats were reversible after 14-week recovery period. No adverse effects were noted in male rats.

8.4 Pediatric Use. Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established. Based on findings in juvenile animals, REBLOZYL is not recommended for use in pediatric patients [see Nonclinical Toxicology (13.1)].

PHARMACODYNAMICS SECTION.


12.2 Pharmacodynamics. Increases in Hemoglobin in Patients with Low RBC Transfusion BurdenIn patients having received 4 units of RBC transfusion within weeks prior to study, hemoglobin increased within days of initiating REBLOZYL and correlated with the time to luspatercept-aamt maximum serum concentration (Cmax). The greatest Hgb increase occurred after the first dose; approximately 0.75 g/dL at dose of 0.6 to 1.25 times the recommended starting dose for beta thalassemia, or approximately g/dL at dose of 0.75 to 1.75 times the recommended starting dose for MDS. Additional smaller increases were observed after subsequent doses. Hemoglobin levels returned to baseline approximately to weeks from the last dose following administration of luspatercept-aamt (0.6 to 1.75 mg/kg). Increasing luspatercept-aamt serum exposure (AUC) was associated with greater Hgb increase in patients with beta thalassemia or MDS who had baseline transfusion burden 4 units/8 weeks. Increasing luspatercept-aamt serum exposure (time-averaged AUC) was associated with greater probability of achieving transfusion independence for at least consecutive weeks in patients with MDS requiring transfusions (>= units of RBC transfusion within weeks).

PHARMACOKINETICS SECTION.


12.3 Pharmacokinetics. Luspatercept-aamt exhibited linear pharmacokinetics (PK) over the dose range of 0.2 to 1.25 mg/kg (0.2 to 1.25 times the recommended starting dosage) in patients with beta thalassemia, and from 0.125 mg/kg to 1.75 mg/kg in patients with MDS. The mean (% coefficient of variation [%CV]) steady-state AUC at the starting dose of mg/kg was 126 (35.9%) dayug/mL for patients with beta thalassemia and 145 (38.3%) dayug/mL for patients with MDS. Luspatercept-aamt serum concentration reached steady state after doses when administered every weeks. The accumulation ratio of luspatercept-aamt was approximately 1.5.. AbsorptionThe median (range) time to maximum concentration (Tmax) of luspatercept-aamt was observed at approximately [6 to 10] days post-dose in adult patients with beta thalassemia or [5 to 21] days post-dose in adult patients with MDS. The absorption of luspatercept-aamt was not significantly affected by the subcutaneous injection sites (upper arm, thigh, or abdomen). DistributionThe mean (%CV) apparent volume of distribution (Vd/F) of luspatercept-aamt was 7.1 (26.7%) for patients with beta thalassemia, and 9.7 (26.5%) for patients with MDS. EliminationThe mean (%CV) half-life (t1/2) of luspatercept-aamt was approximately 11 (25.7%) days and the mean (%CV) apparent total clearance (CL/F) was 0.44 (38.5%) L/day in patients with beta thalassemia. The mean (%CV) t1/2 of luspatercept-aamt was approximately 13 (31.6%) days and the mean (%CV) CL/F was 0.52 (41.2%) L/day in patients with MDS.. MetabolismLuspatercept-aamt is expected to be catabolized into amino acids by general protein degradation processes in multiple tissues.. Specific PopulationsNo clinically significant differences in the luspatercept-aamt PK was observed based on age (18 to 95 years), sex, race/ethnicity (Asian, White), mild to severe hepatic impairment (total bilirubin <= upper limit of normal [ULN] and aspartate aminotransaminase [AST] or alanine transaminase [ALT] ULN, or total bilirubin ULN and any AST or ALT), mild to moderate renal impairment (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] 30 to 89 mL/min/1.73 m2), baseline albumin (30 to 56 g/L), baseline serum erythropoietin (2.4 to 2450 U/L), red blood cell (RBC) transfusion burden (0 to 43 units/24 weeks), beta thalassemia genotype (0/0 vs. non-0/0), splenectomy, and ring sideroblasts status in MDS (negative vs. positive). The effect of AST or ALT >3 ULN and the effect of severe renal impairment (eGFR <30 mL/min/1.73 m2) on luspatercept-aamt PK is unknown. Body WeightThe apparent CL/F and Vd/F of luspatercept-aamt increased with increasing body weight in patients with beta thalassemia (34 to 97 kg) and in patients with MDS (46 to 124 kg). Drug Interaction Studies. Effect of Iron-chelating Agents on Luspatercept-aamtNo clinically significant differences in luspatercept-aamt PK were observed when used concomitantly with iron-chelating agents.

PREGNANCY SECTION.


8.1 Pregnancy. Risk SummaryBased on findings in animal reproduction studies, REBLOZYL may cause fetal harm when administered to pregnant woman. There are no available data on REBLOZYL use in pregnant women to inform drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. In animal reproduction studies, administration of luspatercept-aamt to pregnant rats and rabbits during the period of organogenesis resulted in adverse developmental outcomes including embryo-fetal mortality, alterations to growth, and structural abnormalities at exposures (based on area under the curve [AUC]) above those occurring at the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) (see Data ). Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to fetus.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 is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively.. Data. Animal DataIn embryo-fetal development studies, luspatercept-aamt was administered subcutaneously at 5, 15, or 30 mg/kg on gestation days and 10 (rats) or 5, 20, or 40 mg/kg on gestation days and 11 (rabbits). Effects in both species included reductions in numbers of live fetuses and fetal body weights, and increases in resorptions, post-implantation losses, and skeletal variations (such as asymmetric sternal centra in rats and angulated hyoid in rabbits). Effects were observed at exposures (based on AUC) approximately 7-times (rats) and 16-times (rabbits) the MRHD of 1.75 mg/kg.In pre- and postnatal development study, pregnant rats were administered luspatercept-aamt subcutaneously at 3, 10, or 30 mg/kg once every weeks during organogenesis and through weaning, gestation day through postnatal day 20. At all dose levels lower F1 pup body weights and adverse kidney findings (such as membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis, tubular atrophy/hypoplasia, and vessel ectasia occasionally associated with hemorrhage) were observed. These effects were observed at exposures (based on AUC) approximately 1.6-times the MRHD of 1.75 mg/kg.

USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS SECTION.


8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS. Lactation: Advise not to breastfeed (8.2).. 8.1 Pregnancy. Risk SummaryBased on findings in animal reproduction studies, REBLOZYL may cause fetal harm when administered to pregnant woman. There are no available data on REBLOZYL use in pregnant women to inform drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. In animal reproduction studies, administration of luspatercept-aamt to pregnant rats and rabbits during the period of organogenesis resulted in adverse developmental outcomes including embryo-fetal mortality, alterations to growth, and structural abnormalities at exposures (based on area under the curve [AUC]) above those occurring at the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) (see Data ). Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to fetus.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 is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively.. Data. Animal DataIn embryo-fetal development studies, luspatercept-aamt was administered subcutaneously at 5, 15, or 30 mg/kg on gestation days and 10 (rats) or 5, 20, or 40 mg/kg on gestation days and 11 (rabbits). Effects in both species included reductions in numbers of live fetuses and fetal body weights, and increases in resorptions, post-implantation losses, and skeletal variations (such as asymmetric sternal centra in rats and angulated hyoid in rabbits). Effects were observed at exposures (based on AUC) approximately 7-times (rats) and 16-times (rabbits) the MRHD of 1.75 mg/kg.In pre- and postnatal development study, pregnant rats were administered luspatercept-aamt subcutaneously at 3, 10, or 30 mg/kg once every weeks during organogenesis and through weaning, gestation day through postnatal day 20. At all dose levels lower F1 pup body weights and adverse kidney findings (such as membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis, tubular atrophy/hypoplasia, and vessel ectasia occasionally associated with hemorrhage) were observed. These effects were observed at exposures (based on AUC) approximately 1.6-times the MRHD of 1.75 mg/kg.. 8.2 Lactation. Risk SummaryLuspatercept-aamt was detected in milk of lactating rats. When drug is present in animal milk, it is likely that the drug will be present in human milk. There are no data on the presence of REBLOZYL in human milk, the effects on the breastfed child, or the effects on milk production. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in the breastfed child, advise patients that breastfeeding is not recommended during treatment with REBLOZYL, and for months after the last dose. 8.3 Females and Males of Reproductive Potential. Pregnancy TestingPregnancy testing is recommended for females of reproductive potential before starting REBLOZYL treatment.. Contraception. FemalesREBLOZYL may cause embryo-fetal harm when administered to pregnant women [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1)]. Advise female patients of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with REBLOZYL and for at least months after the last dose.. Infertility. Females Based on findings in animals, REBLOZYL may impair female fertility [see Nonclinical Toxicology (13.1)]. Adverse effects on fertility in female rats were reversible after 14-week recovery period.. 8.4 Pediatric Use. Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established. Based on findings in juvenile animals, REBLOZYL is not recommended for use in pediatric patients [see Nonclinical Toxicology (13.1)]. 8.5 Geriatric Use. Clinical studies of REBLOZYL in beta thalassemia did not include sufficient numbers of patients age 65 years and older to determine whether they respond differently from younger patients.Clinical studies of REBLOZYL for treatment of anemia in MDS-RS and MDS/MPN-RS-T included 206 (79%) patients >= 65 years of age and 93 (36%) patients >= 75 years of age. No differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between older (>= 65 years) and younger patients.

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS SECTION.


5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS. oThrombosis/Thromboembolism: Increased risk in patients with beta thalassemia. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of thromboembolic events and institute treatment promptly (5.1).oHypertension: Monitor blood pressure (BP) during treatment. Initiate anti-hypertensive treatment if necessary (5.2). oEmbryo-Fetal Toxicity: May cause fetal harm. Advise females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to fetus and use of effective contraception (5.3, 8.1, 8.3).. oThrombosis/Thromboembolism: Increased risk in patients with beta thalassemia. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of thromboembolic events and institute treatment promptly (5.1).. oHypertension: Monitor blood pressure (BP) during treatment. Initiate anti-hypertensive treatment if necessary (5.2). oEmbryo-Fetal Toxicity: May cause fetal harm. Advise females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to fetus and use of effective contraception (5.3, 8.1, 8.3).. 5.1Thrombosis/Thromboembolism. In adult patients with beta thalassemia, thromboembolic events (TEE) were reported in 8/223 (3.6%) REBLOZYL-treated patients. Reported TEEs included deep vein thromboses, pulmonary embolus, portal vein thrombosis, and ischemic strokes. Patients with known risk factors for thromboembolism, e.g. splenectomy or concomitant use of hormone replacement therapy, may be at further increased risk of thromboembolic conditions. Consider thromboprophylaxis in patients with beta thalassemia at increased risk of TEE. Monitor patients receiving REBLOZYL for signs and symptoms of thromboembolic events and institute treatment promptly.. 5.2Hypertension. Hypertension was reported in 10.7% (61/571) of REBLOZYL-treated patients. Across clinical studies, the incidence of grade 3-4 hypertension ranged from 1.8% to 8.6%. In adult patients with beta thalassemia with normal baseline blood pressure, 13 (6.2%) patients developed systolic blood pressure (SBP) >=130 mm Hg and 33 (16.6%) patients developed diastolic blood pressure (DBP) >=80 mm Hg. In adult patients with MDS with normal baseline blood pressure, 26 (29.9%) patients developed SBP >=130 mm Hg and 23 (16.4%) patients developed DBP >=80 mm Hg. Monitor blood pressure prior to each administration. Manage new-onset hypertension or exacerbations of preexisting hypertension using anti-hypertensive agents.. 5.3 Embryo-Fetal Toxicity. Based on findings from animal reproductive studies, REBLOZYL may cause fetal harm when administered to pregnant woman. In animal reproduction studies, administration of luspatercept-aamt to pregnant rats and rabbits during organogenesis resulted in adverse developmental outcomes including increased embryo-fetal mortality, alterations to growth, and structural abnormalities at exposures (based on area under the curve [AUC]) above those occurring at the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) of 1.75 mg/kg.Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use an effective method of contraception during treatment with REBLOZYL and for at least months after the final dose [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1, 8.3)].
