GERIATRIC USE SECTION.

8.5 Geriatric Use. Clinical studies of KABIVEN (R) did not include sufficient numbers of patients aged 65 and over to determine whether they respond differently from other younger patients. Other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients. In general, dose selection for an elderly patient should be cautious, usually starting at the low end of the dosing range, reflecting the greater frequency of decreased hepatic, renal, or cardiac function, and of concomitant disease or drug therapy.

DRUG INTERACTIONS SECTION.

7 DRUG INTERACTIONS. Coumarin and coumarin derivatives, including warfarin: Anticoagulant activity may be counteracted; monitor laboratory parameters. 7.1) 7.1 Coumarin and Coumarin Derivatives. The soybean oil present in KABIVEN (R) has vitamin 1. Vitamin 1 can reverse the anticoagulant activity of coumarin and coumarin derivatives, including warfarin, which work by blocking recycling of vitamin 1. Monitor laboratory parameters for anticoagulant activity in patients who are on both KABIVEN (R) and coumarin or coumarin derivatives.

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY SECTION.

12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY. 12.1 Mechanism of Action. KABIVEN (R) is used as supplement or as the sole source of nutrition in patients, providing macronutrients (amino acids, dextrose and lipids) and micronutrients (electrolytes) parenterally. The amino acids provide the structural units that make up proteins and are used to synthesize proteins and other biomolecules or are oxidized to urea and carbon dioxide as source of energy. The administered dextrose is oxidized to carbon dioxide and water, yielding energy.Intravenously administered lipids provide biologically utilizable source of calories and essential fatty acids. Fatty acids serve as an important substrate for energy production. The most common mechanism of action for energy derived from fatty acid metabolism is beta- oxidation. Fatty acids are important for membrane structure and function, precursors for bioactive molecules (such as prostaglandins), and as regulators of gene expression.. 12.3 Pharmacokinetics. The infused lipid particles provided by KABIVEN (R) are expected to be cleared from the blood stream in manner thought to be comparable to the clearing of chylomicrons. In healthy volunteers, the maximum clearance rate of the triglycerides after fasting overnight has been found to be 3.8 +- 1.5 g/kg per 24 hours. Both elimination and oxidation rates are dependent on the patients clinical condition; elimination is faster and utilization is increased in postoperative patients, in sepsis, burns and trauma, while patients with renal impairment and hypertriglyceridemia may show lower utilization of exogenous lipid emulsions. Due to differences in elimination, patients with these conditions should be closely monitored during KABIVEN (R) administration [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3, 5.11)] The disposition of infused amino acids, dextrose and electrolytes are essentially the same as those supplied by ordinary food. clinical study in healthy volunteers employing high intravenous doses (80 mmol) of either sodium glycerophosphate used in KABIVEN (R) or reference, inorganic sodium phosphate demonstrated that both compounds resulted in comparable serum inorganic phosphate concentrations after single intravenous dose. Changes from baseline in the serum levels of sodium, potassium and total calcium were comparable across the two phosphate sources in this study.

The dosage of KABIVEN (R) should be individualized based on the patients clinical condition (ability to adequately metabolize amino acids, dextrose and lipids), body weight and nutritional/fluid requirements, as well as additional energy given orally/enterally to the patient. KABIVEN (R) is combination of amino acids, electrolytes, dextrose, and lipids in fixed volume and concentration. The dosage selection is based upon fluid requirements which can be used in conjunction with the nutritional requirements to determine final dosage [see Table 1]. KABIVEN (R) meets the total nutritional requirements for protein, dextrose and lipids in stable patients, and can be individualized to meet specific needs with the addition of nutrients. The maximum infusion rate is based upon the dextrose component. Prior to administration of KABIVEN (R), correct severe fluid, electrolyte and acid-base disorders. Before starting the infusion, obtain serum triglyceride levels to establish the baseline value. Recommended Adult DosageThe recommended dosage of KABIVEN (R) in adults is 19 to 38 mL/kg/day. The recommended daily nutritional requirements for protein, dextrose and lipids compared to the amount of nutrition provided by KABIVEN (R) are shown in Table 1. The maximum daily dosage of KABIVEN (R) in adults should not exceed 40 mL/kg/day. In patients with serum triglyceride concentrations above 400 mg/dL, stop the KABIVEN (R) infusion and monitor serum triglyceride levels. Once the triglycerides are <400 mg/dL, restart KABIVEN (R) at lower infusion rate and advance rate in smaller increments towards target dosage, checking the triglyceride levels prior to each adjustment [see Contraindications (4) and Warnings and Precautions (5.12) ]. Table 1: Nutritional Comparison Nutrition Provided by KABIVEN (R) recommended dosage Recommended Nutritional Requirements Stable Patients Critically Ill Patients Fluid mL/kg/day 19 to 38 30 to 40 Minimum needed to deliver adequate macronutrients Protein g/kg/day Nitrogen g/kg/day 0.6 to 1.3 0.1 to 0.2 0.8 to 1.0 0.13 to 0.16 1.5 to 0.24 to 0.3 Dextrose g/kg/day 1.9 to 3.7 <=10 <=5.8 Lipids g/kg/day 0.7 to 1.5 <=1 Total Energy Requirement kcal/kg/day 16 to 32 20 to 30 25 to 30 Do not use in patients with conditions that are contraindicated [see Contraindications (4)]. Protein is provided as amino acids. When infused intravenously amino acids are metabolized and utilized as the building blocks of protein. Treatment with KABIVEN (R) may be continued for as long as is required by the patients condition. Dosing in Renal ImpairmentIn patients with renal impairment, the dosage of KABIVEN (R) should be the recommended adult dosage (see above). Prior to administration, correct severe fluid or electrolyte imbalances. Closely monitor serum electrolyte levels and adjust the volume of KABIVEN (R) administered as required [see Warnings and Precautions (5.11)] Renal patients not needing dialysis require 0.6 to 0.8 of protein/kg/day. Patients on dialysis or continuous renal replacement therapy should receive 1.2 to 1.8 of protein/kg/day up to maximum of 2.5 of protein/kg/day based on nutritional status and estimated protein losses 2. The KABIVEN (R) dosage can be adjusted based on the treatment for the renal impairment, supplementing protein as indicated. If required, additional amino acids may be added to the KABIVEN (R) bag or infused separately. Compatibility of additions should be evaluated by pharmacist and questions may be directed to Fresenius Kabi USA, LLC. Infusion Duration and RateThe recommended duration of infusion for KABIVEN (R) is between 12 and 24 hours, depending on the clinical situation. The maximum infusion rate of KABIVEN (R) is 2.6 mL/kg/hour. This corresponds to 0.09 g/kg/hour of amino acids, 0.25 g/kg/hour of dextrose (the rate limiting factor) and 0.1 g/kg/hour of lipids. Dosing InstructionsDetermine the fluid requirements (19 to 38 mL/kg/day) and the patients nutritional requirements (see Table 1) to be delivered, and then select the corresponding KABIVEN (R) bag. Determine the preferred duration of infusion (12 to 24 hours).Ensure that the rate of infusion (KABIVEN (R) dosage in mL/kg/day divided by the preferred duration of infusion (hours)) does not exceed the maximum infusion rate for the patient (i.e., 2.6 mL/kg/hour). The infusion rate may need to be reduced and duration of infusion increased in order not to exceed the maximum infusion rate. Once the infusion rate in mL/kg/hour has been selected, calculate the infusion rate (mL/hour) using the patients weight.Compare the patients nutrient requirements with the amount supplied by KABIVEN (R). Discuss with pharmacist any additions that may be required.

LACTATION SECTION.

8.2 Lactation. Risk SummaryThere are no data available to assess the presence of KABIVEN (R) and/or its active metabolite(s) in human milk, the effects on the breastfed child or the effects on milk production. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mothers clinical need for KABIVEN (R), and any potential adverse effects of KABIVEN (R) on the breastfed child or from the underlying maternal condition.

MECHANISM OF ACTION SECTION.

12.1 Mechanism of Action. KABIVEN (R) is used as supplement or as the sole source of nutrition in patients, providing macronutrients (amino acids, dextrose and lipids) and micronutrients (electrolytes) parenterally. The amino acids provide the structural units that make up proteins and are used to synthesize proteins and other biomolecules or are oxidized to urea and carbon dioxide as source of energy. The administered dextrose is oxidized to carbon dioxide and water, yielding energy.Intravenously administered lipids provide biologically utilizable source of calories and essential fatty acids. Fatty acids serve as an important substrate for energy production. The most common mechanism of action for energy derived from fatty acid metabolism is beta- oxidation. Fatty acids are important for membrane structure and function, precursors for bioactive molecules (such as prostaglandins), and as regulators of gene expression.

NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY SECTION.

13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY. 13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility. Long-term animal studies have not been conducted to evaluate carcinogenic potential of KABIVEN (R) or its effect on fertility. Genotoxicity studies have not been conducted with KABIVEN (R) to assess its mutagenic potential.

OVERDOSAGE SECTION.

10 OVERDOSAGE. In the event of overdose, fat overload syndrome may result [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4)] Stop the infusion of KABIVEN (R) to allow lipids to clear from serum. The effects are usually reversible after the lipid infusion is stopped. If medically appropriate, further intervention may be indicated. The lipid administered and fatty acids produced are not dialyzable.

PEDIATRIC USE SECTION.

8.4 Pediatric Use. The safety and effectiveness of KABIVEN (R) in pediatric patients has not been established. Deaths in preterm infants after infusion of intravenous lipid emulsion have been reported [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ]. Patients, particularly preterm infants, are at risk for aluminum toxicity [see Warnings and Precautions (5.13)] KABIVEN (R) is not recommended for use in pediatric patients under the age of two years, including preterm infants, as the fixed content of the formulation does not meet the nutritional requirements of this age group due to the following reasons: Calcium and dextrose needs are not met and lipids, protein and magnesium exceed requirements. The product does not contain the amino acids cysteine and taurine, considered conditionally essential for neonates and infants. Patients, including pediatric patients, may be at risk for PNALD [see Warnings and Precautions (5.15)] Newborns especially those born premature and with low birth weight are at increased risk of developing hypo or hyperglycemia and therefore need close monitoring during treatment with intravenous dextrose solutions to ensure adequate glycemic control in order to avoid potential long term adverse effects. Hypoglycemia in the newborn can cause prolonged seizures, coma and brain damage. Hyperglycemia has been associated with intraventricular hemorrhage, late onset bacterial and fungal infection, retinopathy of prematurity, necrotizing enterocolitis, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, prolonged length of hospital stay, and death. Calcium and dextrose needs are not met and lipids, protein and magnesium exceed requirements. The product does not contain the amino acids cysteine and taurine, considered conditionally essential for neonates and infants.

PHARMACOKINETICS SECTION.

12.3 Pharmacokinetics. The infused lipid particles provided by KABIVEN (R) are expected to be cleared from the blood stream in manner thought to be comparable to the clearing of chylomicrons. In healthy volunteers, the maximum clearance rate of the triglycerides after fasting overnight has been found to be 3.8 +- 1.5 g/kg per 24 hours. Both elimination and oxidation rates are dependent on the patients clinical condition; elimination is faster and utilization is increased in postoperative patients, in sepsis, burns and trauma, while patients with renal impairment and hypertriglyceridemia may show lower utilization of exogenous lipid emulsions. Due to differences in elimination, patients with these conditions should be closely monitored during KABIVEN (R) administration [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3, 5.11)] The disposition of infused amino acids, dextrose and electrolytes are essentially the same as those supplied by ordinary food. clinical study in healthy volunteers employing high intravenous doses (80 mmol) of either sodium glycerophosphate used in KABIVEN (R) or reference, inorganic sodium phosphate demonstrated that both compounds resulted in comparable serum inorganic phosphate concentrations after single intravenous dose. Changes from baseline in the serum levels of sodium, potassium and total calcium were comparable across the two phosphate sources in this study.

PREGNANCY SECTION.

8.1 Pregnancy. Risk SummaryThe limited available data on the use of KABIVEN (R) in pregnant women are not sufficient to inform drug-associated risk. However, there are clinical considerations if KABIVEN (R) is used in pregnant women [see Clinical Considerations]. Animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with KABIVEN (R). The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population are unknown. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is to 4% and 15 to 20%, respectively. Clinical ConsiderationsDisease-Associated Maternal and/or Embryofetal RiskSevere malnutrition in pregnant woman is associated with preterm delivery, low birth weight, intrauterine growth restriction, congenital malformations and perinatal mortality. Parenteral nutrition should be considered if pregnant womans nutritional requirements cannot be fulfilled by oral or enteral intake.

The safety and effectiveness of KABIVEN (R) in pediatric patients has not been established. Deaths in preterm infants after infusion of intravenous lipid emulsion have been reported [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ].

The product does not contain the amino acids cysteine and taurine, considered conditionally essential for neonates and infants. 8.5 Geriatric Use. Clinical studies of KABIVEN (R) did not include sufficient numbers of patients aged 65 and over to determine whether they respond differently from other younger patients. Other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients. In general, dose selection for an elderly patient should be cautious, usually starting at the low end of the dosing range, reflecting the greater frequency of decreased hepatic, renal, or cardiac function, and of concomitant disease or drug therapy. 8.6 Hepatic Impairment. In patients with impaired liver function KABIVEN (R) should be administered with caution. Frequent clinical evaluation and laboratory tests to monitor liver function such as bilirubin and liver function parameters should be conducted [s ee Warnings and Precautions (5.10)] . 8.7 Renal Impairment. In patients with impaired renal function, KABIVEN (R) should be administered with caution. Frequent clinical evaluation and laboratory tests to monitor renal function such as serum electrolytes (especially phosphate and potassium) and fluid balance should be conducted [see Dosage and Administration (2.4) and Warnings and Precautions (5.11)].

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS SECTION.

5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS. Hypersensitivity reactions: Monitor for signs or symptoms and discontinue infusion if reactions occur. 5.2) Infection, fat overload, hyperglycemia and refeeding complications: Monitor for signs and symptoms; monitor laboratory parameters. 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 5.7) Hypersensitivity reactions: Monitor for signs or symptoms and discontinue infusion if reactions occur. 5.2) Infection, fat overload, hyperglycemia and refeeding complications: Monitor for signs and symptoms; monitor laboratory parameters. 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 5.7) 5.1 Death in Preterm Infants. Deaths in preterm infants after infusion of intravenous lipid emulsions have been reported. Autopsy findings included intravascular lipid accumulation in the lungs. Preterm and small for gestational age infants have poor clearance of intravenous lipid emulsion and increased free fatty acid plasma levels following lipid emulsion infusion. The safe and effective use of KABIVEN (R) injection in pediatric patients, including preterm infants, has not been established. KABIVEN (R) is not recommended for use in pediatric patients under the age of years including preterm infants. 5.2 Hypersensitivity Reactions. Stop infusion immediately and treat patient accordingly if signs or symptoms of hypersensitivity or allergic reaction develop. Signs or symptoms may include: tachypnea, dyspnea, hypoxia, bronchospasm, tachycardia, hypotension, cyanosis, vomiting, nausea, headache, sweating, dizziness, altered mentation, flushing, rash, urticaria, erythema, pyrexia and chills.. 5.3 Infections. Patients who require parenteral nutrition are at high risk of infections due to malnutrition and their underlying disease state. Infection and sepsis may occur as result of the use of intravenous catheters to administer parenteral nutrition, poor maintenance of catheters, or immunosuppressive effects of illness, drugs, and parenteral formulations. Decrease the risk of septic complications with heightened emphasis on aseptic technique in catheter placement and maintenance, as well as aseptic technique in the preparation of the nutritional formula. Monitor for signs and symptoms (including fever and chills) of early infections, including laboratory test results (including leukocytosis and hyperglycemia) and frequent checks of the parenteral access device. 5.4 Fat Overload Syndrome. Fat overload syndrome is rare condition that has been reported with intravenous lipid formulations. reduced or limited ability to metabolize the lipid contained in KABIVEN (R) accompanied by prolonged plasma clearance may result in syndrome characterized by sudden deterioration in the patients condition accompanied by fever, anemia, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, coagulation disorders, hyperlipidemia, liver fatty infiltration (hepatomegaly), deteriorating liver function, and central nervous system manifestations (e.g., coma). The cause of the fat overload syndrome is unclear. The syndrome is usually reversible when the infusion of the lipid emulsion is stopped. Although it has been most frequently observed when the recommended lipid dosage was exceeded, cases have also been described where the lipid formulation was administered according to instructions. 5.5 Refeeding Syndrome. Refeeding severely undernourished patients with parenteral nutrition may result in the refeeding syndrome, characterized by the intracellular shift of potassium, phosphorus, and magnesium as the patient becomes anabolic. Thiamine deficiency and fluid retention may also develop. Carefully monitor severely undernourished patients and slowly increase their nutrient intakes, while avoiding overfeeding, to prevent these complications.. 5.6 Diabetes/Hyperglycemia. KABIVEN (R) should be used with caution in patients with diabetes mellitus or hyperglycemia. With the administration of KABIVEN (R), hyperglycemia and hyperosmolar syndrome may result. Administration of dextrose at rate exceeding the patients utilization rate may lead to hyperglycemia, coma and death. Monitor blood glucose levels and treat hyperglycemia to maintain optimum levels while infusing KABIVEN (R). Insulin may be administered or adjusted to maintain optimal blood glucose levels during KABIVEN (R) administration. 5.7 Monitoring/Laboratory Tests. Routine MonitoringFrequent clinical evaluation and laboratory determinations are necessary for proper monitoring during administration.Monitor fluid status closely in patients with heart failure or pulmonary edema.Monitor serum triglycerides, fluid and electrolyte status, serum osmolarity, blood glucose, liver and kidney function, and blood count, including platelet and coagulation parameters, throughout treatment. In situations of severely elevated electrolyte levels stop KABIVEN (R) until levels have been corrected. Essential Fatty AcidsMonitoring patients for signs and symptoms of essential fatty acid deficiency (EFAD) is recommended. Laboratory tests are available to determine serum fatty acids levels. Reference values should be consulted to help determine adequacy of essential fatty acid status. Increasing essential fatty acid intake (enterally or parenterally) is effective in treating and preventing EFAD.In KABIVEN (R), the mean composition of linoleic acid (an omega-6 essential fatty acid) is 21 mg/mL (range 19 to 23 mg/mL) and alpha-linolenic acid (an omega-3 essential fatty acid) is 2.6 mg/mL (range 2.0 to 4.3 mg/mL). There are insufficient long-term data to determine whether KABIVEN (R) can supply essential fatty acids in adequate amounts in patients who may have increased requirements. Frequent clinical evaluation and laboratory determinations are necessary for proper monitoring during administration.. Monitor fluid status closely in patients with heart failure or pulmonary edema.. Monitor serum triglycerides, fluid and electrolyte status, serum osmolarity, blood glucose, liver and kidney function, and blood count, including platelet and coagulation parameters, throughout treatment. In situations of severely elevated electrolyte levels stop KABIVEN (R) until levels have been corrected. 5.8 Vein Damage and Thrombosis. KABIVEN (R) is indicated for administration into central vein only, such as the superior vena cava. The infusion of hypertonic nutrient injections into peripheral vein may result in vein irritation, vein damage, and/or thrombosis. 5.9 Precipitation with Ceftriaxone. Precipitation of ceftriaxone-calcium can occur when ceftriaxone is mixed with calcium-containing parenteral nutrition solutions, such as KABIVEN (R) in the same intravenous administration line. Ceftriaxone must not be administered simultaneously with KABIVEN (R) via Y-site. However, ceftriaxone and KABIVEN (R) may be administered sequentially if the infusion lines are thoroughly flushed between infusions with compatible fluid [s ee Dosage and Administration (2.1)] . 5.10 Hepatobiliary Disorders. Hepatobiliary disorders are known to develop in some patients without preexisting liver disease who receive parenteral nutrition, including cholecystitis, cholelithiasis, cholestasis, hepatic steatosis, fibrosis and cirrhosis, possibly leading to hepatic failure. The etiology of these disorders is thought to be multifactorial and may differ between patients. Increase of blood ammonia levels and hyperammonemia may occur in patients receiving amino acid solutions. In some patients this may indicate hepatic insufficiency or the presence of an inborn error of amino acid metabolism [see Contraindications (4)] or hepatic insufficiency. Monitor liver function parameters and ammonia. Patients developing signs of hepatobiliary disorders should be assessed early by clinician knowledgeable in liver diseases in order to identify causative and contributory factors, and possible therapeutic and prophylactic interventions.. 5.11 Electrolyte Imbalance and Fluid Overload in Renal Impairment. Patients with renal impairment, such as pre-renal azotemia, renal obstruction and protein-losing nephropathy may be at increased risk of electrolyte and fluid volume imbalance. KABIVEN (R) should be used with caution in patients with renal impairment. KABIVEN (R) dosage may require adjustment with specific attention to fluid, protein and electrolyte content in these patients. Monitor renal function parameters. Patients developing signs of renal impairment should be assessed early by clinician knowledgeable in renal disease in order to determine the appropriate KABIVEN (R) dosage and other treatment options. 5.12 Hypertriglyceridemia. To evaluate the patients capacity to eliminate and metabolize the infused lipid emulsion, measure serum triglycerides before the start of infusion (baseline value), with each increase in dosage, and regularly throughout treatment.Reduce dose of KABIVEN (R) and monitor serum triglyceride levels in patients with serum triglyceride concentrations above 400 mg/dL to avoid the clinical consequences associated with hypertriglyceridemia. Serum triglyceride levels above 1,000 mg/dL have been associated with an increased risk of pancreatitis. Impaired lipid metabolism with hypertriglyceridemia may occur in conditions such as inherited lipid disorders, obesity, diabetes mellitus, and metabolic syndrome. In these cases, increased triglycerides can also be increased by dextrose and/or overfeeding. Monitor overall energy intake and other sources of lipid and dextrose, as well as drugs that may interfere with lipid and dextrose metabolism.. 5.13 Aluminum Toxicity. KABIVEN (R) contains no more than 25 mcg/L of aluminum. The aluminum contained in KABIVEN (R) may reach toxic levels with prolonged parenteral administration in patients with impaired kidney function. Preterm infants are at greater risk because their kidneys are immature, and they require large amounts of calcium and phosphate solutions that contain aluminum. Patients with impaired kidney function, including preterm infants, who receive parenteral levels of aluminum at greater than to mcg/kg/day, accumulate aluminum at levels associated with central nervous system and bone toxicity. Tissue loading may occur at even lower rates of administration of total parenteral nutrition products. 5.14 Interference with Laboratory Tests. High levels of lipids in plasma may interfere with some laboratory blood tests such as hemoglobin, triglycerides, bilirubin, LDH, and oxygen saturation, if blood is sampled before lipid has been cleared from the bloodstream. Lipids are normally cleared after lipid-free interval of to hours in most patients. KABIVEN (R) contains Vitamin 1 which may interfere with anticoagulant activity [see Drug Interactions (7.1)] . 5.15 Risk of Parenteral Nutrition Associated Liver Disease. Parenteral Nutrition Associated Liver Disease (PNALD) has been reported in patients who receive parenteral nutrition for extended periods of time, especially preterm infants, and can present as cholestasis or steatohepatitis. The exact etiology is unknown and is likely multifactorial. Intravenously administered phytosterols (plant sterols) contained in plant-derived lipid formulations have been associated with development of PNALD although causal relationship has not been established. If KABIVEN (R) treated patients develop liver test abnormalities consider discontinuation or dosage reduction.

CLINICAL TRIALS EXPERIENCE SECTION.

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 clinical data described for KABIVEN reflects exposure in 145 patients exposed for days to weeks in active-controlled trials. The pooled population exposed to KABIVEN was 25 to 87 years old, 35% female, 99% Caucasian. The enrolled patients had varied underlying conditions such as gastrointestinal disorders (41%) neoplasms (48%), vascular disorders (35%) and other surgical procedures (21%). Most patients received central intravenous infusion doses of >=80% of their target mean daily exposure.Adverse reactions occurring in at least 1% of patients who received KABIVEN are shown in Table 3.Table 3: Adverse Reactions in >1% of Patients Treated with KABIVEN Terms as reported in clinical studiesAdverse reactionKABIVEN N=145 (%)Nausea22 (15)Pyrexia13 (9)Hypertension12 (8)Vomiting8 (6)Hemoglobin decreased8 (6)Protein total decreased6 (4)Hypokalemia6 (4)Blood potassium decreased6 (4)Gamma-glutamyltransferase increased6 (4)Hyperglycemia3 (2)Blood alkaline phosphatase increased2 (1)Blood calcium decreased2 (1)Prothrombin time prolonged2 (1)Pruritus2 (1)Tachycardia2 (1)Less common adverse reactions in <=1% of patients who received KABIVEN were hyperkalemia, hypertriglyceridemia, headache, dizziness, dysgeusia, rash, eczema, blood glucose increased, and increase in blood triglycerides.In randomized active-controlled, double-blind, parallel-group, multi-center study that included 152 neonates and patients ranging in age from 29 to 153 days who were expected to require PN for at least 28 days, parenteral nutrition-associated cholestasis (PNAC), precursor to PNALD, developed more frequently in Intralipid-treated patients than in patients treated with 4-oil mixed lipid emulsion. Intralipid is the lipid emulsion component of KABIVEN.PNAC (defined as direct bilirubin >2mg/dl with second confirmed elevation >2mg/dl at least days later) occurred in 11.5% (9/78) of Intralipid-treated patients and 2.4% (2/83) of patients treated with 4-oil mixed lipid emulsion. Most PNAC events occurred in patients who were treated for longer than 28 days.The estimated cumulative incidence of PNAC is shown in the Kaplan-Meier cumulative incidence curve in Figure 1.Figure 1: Cumulative Incidence Curve of Time to Parenteral Nutrition-Associated Cholestasis (PNAC) with Standard Error BarsMonitor liver tests in patients treated with KABIVEN and consider discontinuation or dosage reduction if abnormalities occur..
