Repatha

 Recommended Dosage

• In adults with established cardiovascular disease or with primary hyperlipidemia:
  • The recommended dosage of REPATHA is either 140 mg every 2 weeks OR 420 mg once monthly administered subcutaneously [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)].
  • If switching dosage regimens, administer the first dose of the new regimen on the next scheduled date of the prior regimen.
• In pediatric patients aged 10 years and older with HeFH:
  • The recommended dosage of REPATHA is either 140 mg every 2 weeks OR 420 mg once monthly administered subcutaneously [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)].
  • If switching dosage regimens, administer the first dose of the new regimen on the next scheduled date of the prior regimen.
• In adults and pediatric patients aged 10 years and older with HoFH:
  • The initial recommended dosage of REPATHA is 420 mg once monthly administered subcutaneously [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)].
  • The dosage can be increased to 420 mg every 2 weeks if a clinically meaningful response is not achieved in 12 weeks.
  • Patients on lipid apheresis may initiate treatment with 420 mg every 2 weeks to correspond with their apheresis schedule. Administer REPATHA after the apheresis session is complete.
• Assess LDL-C when clinically appropriate. The LDL-lowering effect of REPATHA may be measured as early as 4 weeks after initiation.
• When monitoring LDL-C for patients receiving REPATHA 420 mg once monthly, note that LDL-C can vary during the dosing interval in some patients; recommend measuring LDL-C just prior to the next scheduled dose [see Clinical Studies (14)].

 Missed Doses

If a dose is missed:

• Within 7 days from the missed dose, instruct the patient to administer REPATHA and resume the patient's original schedule.
• More than 7 days after the missed dose:
  • For an every 2-week dose, instruct the patient to wait until the next dose on the original schedule.
  • For a once-monthly dose, instruct the patient to administer the dose and start a new schedule based on this date.

 Important Administration Instructions

• Advise latex-sensitive patients that the needle cover of the glass single-dose prefilled syringe and the single-dose prefilled autoinjector contain dry natural rubber (a derivative of latex) that may cause allergic reactions in individuals sensitive to latex [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].
• Train patients and/or caregivers on how to prepare and administer REPATHA, according to the Instructions for Use and instruct them to read and follow the Instructions for Use each time they use REPATHA.
• Prior to use, allow REPATHA to warm to room temperature for at least 30 minutes for the prefilled autoinjector or syringe and for at least 45 minutes for the on-body infusor with prefilled cartridge if REPATHA has been refrigerated [see How Supplied/Storage and Handling (16)].
• Visually inspect REPATHA prior to administration. REPATHA is a clear to opalescent, colorless to pale yellow solution. Do not use if the solution is cloudy, discolored, or contains particles.
• Administer REPATHA subcutaneously into areas of the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm that are not tender, bruised, red, or indurated. Avoid injecting into areas with scars or stretch marks. Rotate injection sites for each administration.
• The 420 mg dose of REPATHA can be administered:
  • over 5 minutes by using the single-dose on-body infusor with prefilled cartridge, or
  • by giving 3 injections consecutively within 30 minutes using the single-dose prefilled autoinjector or single-dose prefilled syringe.

Pediatric Use

The safety and effectiveness of REPATHA in combination with diet and other LDL-C-lowering therapies for the treatment of HoFH have been established in pediatric patients aged 10 years and older. Use of REPATHA for this indication is supported by evidence from an adequate and well-controlled trial in adults and pediatric patients aged 13 years and older with HoFH (including 7 pediatric patients treated with REPATHA) and from open-label studies which included an additional 19 pediatric patients aged 11 years and older with HoFH not previously treated with REPATHA [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) and Clinical Studies (14)].

The safety and effectiveness of REPATHA as an adjunct to diet and other LDL-C-lowering therapies for the treatment of HeFH have been established in pediatric patients aged 10 years and older. Use of REPATHA for this indication is based on data from a 24-week, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial in pediatric patients with HeFH. In the trial, 104 patients received REPATHA 420 mg subcutaneously once monthly and 53 patients received placebo; 39 patients (25%) were 10 to 11 years of age [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) and Clinical Studies (14)].

The safety and effectiveness of REPATHA have not been established in pediatric patients with HeFH or HoFH who are younger than 10 years old or in pediatric patients with other types of hyperlipidemia.

Geriatric Use

In controlled trials, 7656 (41%) patients treated with REPATHA were ≥ 65 years old and 1500 (8%) were ≥ 75 years old. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between these patients and younger patients, and other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients, but greater sensitivity of some older individuals cannot be ruled out.

Renal Impairment

No dose adjustment is needed in patients with renal impairment [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].

Hepatic Impairment

No dose adjustment is needed in patients with mild to moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh A or B). No data are available in patients with severe hepatic impairment [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].

 Hypersensitivity Reactions

Hypersensitivity reactions, including angioedema, have been reported in patients treated with REPATHA. If signs or symptoms of serious hypersensitivity reactions occur, discontinue treatment with REPATHA, treat according to the standard of care, and monitor until signs and symptoms resolve. REPATHA is contraindicated in patients with a history of serious hypersensitivity reactions to evolocumab or any excipient in REPATHA [see Contraindications (4)].

The needle cover of the glass single-dose prefilled syringe and the single-dose prefilled autoinjector contain dry natural rubber (a derivative of latex) which may cause an allergic reaction in individuals sensitive to latex.

 Clinical Trials Experience

Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in clinical practice.

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 REPATHA in the studies described below with the incidence of antibodies in other studies or to other products may be misleading.

The immunogenicity of REPATHA has been evaluated using an electrochemiluminescent bridging screening immunoassay for the detection of binding anti-drug antibodies. For patients whose sera tested positive in the screening immunoassay, an in vitro biological assay was performed to detect neutralizing antibodies.

In a pool of placebo- and active-controlled clinical trials, 0.3% (48 out of 17,992) of adult patients treated with at least one dose of REPATHA tested positive for the development of binding antibodies. Patients whose sera tested positive for binding antibodies were further evaluated for neutralizing antibodies; none of the patients tested positive for neutralizing antibodies.

The development of anti-evolocumab antibodies was not detected in clinical trials of pediatric patients treated with REPATHA.

There was no evidence that the presence of anti-drug binding antibodies impacted the pharmacokinetic profile, clinical response, or safety of REPATHA.

Postmarketing Experience

The following additional adverse reactions have been identified during post-approval use of REPATHA. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.

• Hypersensitivity reactions: Angioedema
• Influenza-like illness

Mechanism of Action

Evolocumab is a human monoclonal IgG2 directed against human proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 (PCSK9). PCSK9 binds to the low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) on the surface of hepatocytes to promote LDLR degradation within the liver. By inhibiting the binding of PCSK9 to LDLR, evolocumab increases the number of LDLRs available to clear LDL from the blood, thereby lowering LDL-C levels.

Pharmacodynamics

Following single subcutaneous administration of 140 mg or 420 mg of evolocumab, maximum suppression of circulating unbound PCSK9 occurred by 4 hours. Unbound PCSK9 concentrations returned toward baseline when evolocumab concentrations decreased below the limit of quantitation. Maximum LDL-C reduction occurred by 2 weeks after a single-dose of 140 mg of evolocumab and by 3 weeks after a single-dose of 420 mg of evolocumab.

Pharmacokinetics

Evolocumab exhibits non-linear kinetics as a result of binding to PCSK9. Administration of the 140 mg dose in healthy volunteers resulted in a Cmax mean of 18.6 μg/mL and AUClast mean of 188 day∙μg/mL. Administration of the 420 mg dose in healthy volunteers resulted in a Cmax mean of 59.0 μg/mL and AUClast mean of 924 day∙μg/mL. Following a single 420 mg intravenous dose, the mean systemic clearance was estimated to be 12 mL/hr. An approximate 2- to 3-fold accumulation was observed in trough serum concentrations (Cmin 7.21) following 140 mg doses administered subcutaneously every 2 weeks or following 420 mg doses administered subcutaneously monthly (Cmin 11.2), and serum trough concentrations approached steady-state by 12 weeks of dosing.

Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility

The carcinogenic potential of evolocumab was evaluated in a lifetime study conducted in the hamster at dose levels of 10, 30, and 100 mg/kg administered every 2 weeks. There were no evolocumab-related tumors at the highest dose at systemic exposures up to 38- and 15-fold the recommended human doses of 140 mg every 2 weeks and 420 mg once monthly, respectively, based on plasma AUC. The mutagenic potential of evolocumab has not been evaluated; however, monoclonal antibodies are not expected to alter DNA or chromosomes.

There were no adverse effects on fertility (including estrous cycling, sperm analysis, mating performance, and embryonic development) at the highest dose in a fertility and early embryonic developmental toxicology study in hamsters when evolocumab was subcutaneously administered at 10, 30, and 100 mg/kg every 2 weeks. The highest dose tested corresponds to systemic exposures up to 30- and 12-fold the recommended human doses of 140 mg every 2 weeks and 420 mg once monthly, respectively, based on plasma AUC. In addition, there were no adverse evolocumab-related effects on surrogate markers of fertility (reproductive organ histopathology, menstrual cycling, or sperm parameters) in a 6-month chronic toxicology study in sexually mature monkeys subcutaneously administered evolocumab at 3, 30, and 300 mg/kg once weekly. The highest dose tested corresponds to 744- and 300-fold the recommended human doses of 140 mg every 2 weeks and 420 mg once monthly, respectively, based on plasma AUC.

Animal Toxicology and/or Pharmacology

During a 3-month toxicology study of 10 and 100 mg/kg once every 2 weeks evolocumab in combination with 5 mg/kg once daily rosuvastatin in adult monkeys, there were no effects of evolocumab on the humoral immune response to keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) after 1 to 2 months exposure. The highest dose tested corresponds to exposures 54- and 21-fold higher than the recommended human doses of 140 mg every 2 weeks and 420 mg once monthly, respectively, based on plasma AUC. Similarly, there were no effects of evolocumab on the humoral immune response to KLH (after 3 to 4 months exposure) in a 6-month study in cynomolgus monkeys at dose levels up to 300 mg/kg once weekly evolocumab corresponding to exposures 744- and 300-fold greater than the recommended human doses of 140 mg every 2 weeks and 420 mg once monthly, respectively, based on plasma AUC.

Adult Patients with Established Cardiovascular Disease

Study 1 (FOURIER, NCT01764633) was a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, event-driven trial in 27,564 (13,784 REPATHA, 13,780 placebo) adult patients with established cardiovascular disease and with LDL-C ≥ 70 mg/dL and/or non-HDL-C ≥ 100 mg/dL despite high- or moderate-intensity statin therapy. Patients were randomly assigned 1:1 to receive either subcutaneous injections of REPATHA (140 mg every 2 weeks or 420 mg once monthly) or placebo; 86% used the every-2-week regimen throughout the trial. The median follow-up duration was 26 months. Overall, 99.2% of patients were followed until the end of the trial or death.

The mean (SD) age at baseline was 63 (9) years, with 45% being at least 65 years old; 25% were women. The trial population was 85% White, 2% Black, and 10% Asian; 8% identified as Hispanic ethnicity. Regarding prior diagnoses of cardiovascular disease, 81% had prior myocardial infarction, 19% prior non-hemorrhagic stroke, and 13% had symptomatic peripheral arterial disease. Selected additional baseline risk factors included hypertension (80%), diabetes mellitus (1% type 1; 36% type 2), current daily cigarette smoking (28%), New York Heart Association class I or II congestive heart failure (23%), and eGFR < 60 mL/min per 1.73 m2 (6%). Most patients were on a high- (69%) or moderate-intensity (30%) statin therapy at baseline, and 5% were also taking ezetimibe. Most patients were taking at least one other cardiovascular medication including anti-platelet agents (93%), beta blockers (76%), angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors (56%), or angiotensin receptor blockers (23%). On stable background lipid-lowering therapy, the median [Q1, Q3] LDL-C at baseline was 92 [80, 109] mg/dL; the mean (SD) was 98 (28) mg/dL.

REPATHA significantly reduced the risk for the primary composite endpoint (time to first occurrence of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, hospitalization for unstable angina, or coronary revascularization; p < 0.0001) and the key secondary composite endpoint (time to first occurrence of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, or stroke; p < 0.0001). The Kaplan-Meier estimates of the cumulative incidence of the primary and key secondary composite endpoints over time are shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 below.

The results of primary and secondary efficacy endpoints are shown in Table 3 below.

Figure 1. Estimated Cumulative Incidence of Primary Composite Endpoint Over 3 Years in FOURIER

Figure 2. Estimated Cumulative Incidence of Key Secondary Composite Endpoint Over 3 Years in FOURIER

The difference between REPATHA and placebo in mean percent change in LDL-C from baseline to Week 12 was −63% (95% CI: −63%, −62%) and from baseline to Week 72 was −57% (95% CI: −58%, −56%). At Week 48, the median [Q1, Q3] LDL-C was 26 [15, 46] mg/dL in the REPATHA group, with 47% of patients having LDL-C < 25 mg/dL.

In EBBINGHAUS (NCT02207634), a substudy of 1974 patients enrolled in the FOURIER trial, REPATHA was non-inferior to placebo on selected cognitive function domains as assessed with the use of neuropsychological function tests over a median follow-up of 19 months.

Primary Hyperlipidemia

Study 2 (LAPLACE-2, NCT01763866) was a multicenter, double-blind, randomized controlled 12-week trial in which patients were initially randomized to an open-label specific statin regimen for a 4-week lipid stabilization period followed by random assignment to subcutaneous injections of REPATHA 140 mg every 2 weeks, REPATHA 420 mg once monthly, or placebo for 12 weeks. The trial included 1896 patients with hyperlipidemia who received REPATHA, placebo, or ezetimibe as add-on therapy to daily doses of statins (atorvastatin, rosuvastatin, or simvastatin). Ezetimibe was also included as an active control only among those assigned to background atorvastatin. Overall, the mean age at baseline was 60 years (range: 20 to 80 years), 35% were ≥ 65 years old, 46% women, 94% White, 4% were Black, and 1% Asian; 5% identified as Hispanic or Latino ethnicity. After 4 weeks of background statin therapy, the mean baseline LDL-C ranged between 77 and 127 mg/dL across the five background therapy arms.

The difference between REPATHA and placebo in mean percent change in LDL-C from baseline to Week 12 was −71% (95% CI: −74%, −67%; p < 0.0001) and −63% (95% CI: −68%, −57%; p < 0.0001) for the 140 mg every 2 weeks and 420 mg once monthly dosages, respectively. The difference between REPATHA and ezetimibe in mean percent change in LDL-C from baseline to Week 12 was −45% (95% CI: −52%, −39%; p < 0.0001) and −41% (95% CI: −47%, −35%; p < 0.0001) for the 140 mg every 2 weeks and 420 mg once monthly dosages, respectively. For additional results, see Table 4 and Figure 3.

Study 3 (DESCARTES, NCT01516879) was a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, 52-week trial that included 901 patients with hyperlipidemia who received protocol-determined background lipid-lowering therapy of a cholesterol-lowering diet either alone or in addition to atorvastatin (10 mg or 80 mg daily) or the combination of atorvastatin 80 mg daily with ezetimibe. After stabilization on background therapy, patients were randomly assigned to the addition of placebo or REPATHA 420 mg administered subcutaneously once monthly. Overall, the mean age at baseline was 56 years (range: 25 to 75 years), 23% were ≥ 65 years, 52% women, 80% White, 8% Black, and 6% Asian; 6% identified as Hispanic or Latino ethnicity. After stabilization on the assigned background therapy, the mean baseline LDL-C ranged between 90 and 117 mg/dL across the four background therapy groups.

In these patients with hyperlipidemia on a protocol-determined background therapy, the difference between REPATHA 420 mg once monthly and placebo in mean percent change in LDL-C from baseline to Week 52 was −55% (95% CI: −60%, −50%; p < 0.0001) (Table 5 and Figure 4). For additional results, see Table 5.

Figure 4. Effect of REPATHA 420 mg Once Monthly on LDL-C in Patients with Hyperlipidemia in DESCARTES

Study 4 (MENDEL-2, NCT01763827) was a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo- and active-controlled, 12-week trial that included 614 patients with hyperlipidemia who were not taking lipid-lowering therapy at baseline. Patients were randomly assigned to receive subcutaneous injections of REPATHA 140 mg every 2 weeks, REPATHA 420 mg once monthly, or placebo for 12 weeks. Blinded administration of ezetimibe was also included as an active control. Overall, the mean age at baseline was 53 years (range: 20 to 80 years), 18% were ≥ 65 years old, 66% were women, 83% White, 7% Black, and 9% Asian; 11% identified as Hispanic or Latino ethnicity. The mean baseline LDL-C was 143 mg/dL.

The difference between REPATHA and placebo in mean percent change in LDL-C from baseline to Week 12 was −55% (95% CI: −60%, −50%; p < 0.0001) and −57% (95% CI: −61%, −52%; p < 0.0001) for the 140 mg every 2 weeks and 420 mg once monthly dosages, respectively. The difference between REPATHA and ezetimibe in mean percent change in LDL-C from baseline to Week 12 was −37% (95% CI: −42%, −32%; p < 0.0001) and −38% (95% CI: −42%, −34%; p < 0.0001) for the 140 mg every 2 weeks and 420 mg once monthly dosages, respectively. For additional results, see Table 6.

Study 5 (RUTHERFORD-2, NCT01763918) was a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, 12-week trial in 329 patients with HeFH on statins with or without other lipid-lowering therapies. Patients were randomized to receive subcutaneous injections of REPATHA 140 mg every two weeks, 420 mg once monthly, or placebo. HeFH was diagnosed by the Simon Broome criteria (1991). In Study 5, 38% of patients had clinical atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. The mean age at baseline was 51 years (range: 19 to 79 years), 15% of the patients were ≥ 65 years old, 42% were women, 90% were White, 5% were Asian, and 1% were Black. The average LDL-C at baseline was 156 mg/dL with 76% of the patients on high-intensity statin therapy.

The differences between REPATHA and placebo in mean percent change in LDL-C from baseline to Week 12 was −61% (95% CI: −67%, −55%; p < 0.0001) and −60% (95% CI: −68%, −52%; p < 0.0001) for the 140 mg every 2 weeks and 420 mg once monthly dosages, respectively. For additional results, see Table 7 and Figure 5.

Pediatric Patients with HeFH

Study 6 (HAUSER-RCT, NCT02392559) was a randomized, multicenter, placebo-controlled, double-blind, 24-week trial in 157 pediatric patients aged 10 to 17 years with HeFH [see Use in Specific Populations (8.4)]. HeFH was diagnosed by diagnostic criteria for HeFH [Simon Broome Register Group (1991), the Dutch Lipid Clinic Network (1999), MEDPED (1993)] or by genetic testing. Patients were required to be on a low-fat diet and optimized background lipid-lowering therapy. Patients were randomly assigned 2:1 to receive 24 weeks of subcutaneous once monthly 420 mg REPATHA or placebo; 104 patients received REPATHA and 53 patients received placebo. The mean age was 14 years (range: 10 to 17 years), 56% were female, 85% White, 1% Black, 1% Asian, 13% Other, and 8% Hispanic. The mean LDL-C at baseline was 184 mg/dL; 17% of patients were on high-intensity statin, 62% on moderate-intensity statin, and 13% on ezetimibe.

The difference between REPATHA and placebo in mean percent change in LDL-C from baseline to Week 24 was −38% (95% CI: −45%, −31%; p < 0.0001). For additional results, see Table 8 and Figure 6.

Figure 6. Effect of REPATHA on LDL-C in Pediatric Patients with HeFH (Mean % Change from Baseline in HAUSER-RCT)

Adults and Pediatric Patients with HoFH

Study 7 (TESLA, NCT01588496) was a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, 12-week trial in 49 patients (not on lipid-apheresis therapy) with HoFH. In this trial, 33 patients received subcutaneous injections of 420 mg of REPATHA once monthly and 16 patients received placebo as an adjunct to other lipid-lowering therapies (e.g., statins, ezetimibe). The mean age at baseline was 31 years, 49% were women, 90% White, 4% were Asian, and 6% other. The trial included 10 adolescents (ages 13 to 17 years), 7 of whom received REPATHA. The mean LDL-C at baseline was 349 mg/dL with all patients on statins (atorvastatin or rosuvastatin) and 92% on ezetimibe. The diagnosis of HoFH was made by genetic confirmation or a clinical diagnosis based on a history of an untreated LDL-C concentration > 500 mg/dL together with either xanthoma before 10 years of age or evidence of HeFH in both parents.

The difference between REPATHA and placebo in mean percent change in LDL-C from baseline to Week 12 was −31% (95% CI: −44%, −18%; p < 0.0001). For additional results, see Table 9.

Patients known to have two LDL-receptor negative alleles (little to no residual function) did not respond to REPATHA.

Study 8 (TAUSSIG, NCT01624142) was a multicenter, open-label 5-year extension study with REPATHA in 106 patients with HoFH, who were treated with REPATHA as an adjunct to other lipid-lowering therapies. The study included 14 pediatric patients (ages 13 to 17 years). All patients in the study were initially treated with REPATHA 420 mg once monthly except for those receiving lipid apheresis at enrollment, who began with REPATHA 420 mg every 2 weeks. Dose frequency in non-apheresis patients could be titrated up to 420 mg once every 2 weeks based on LDL-C response and PCSK9 levels.

A total of 48 patients with HoFH received REPATHA 420 mg once monthly for at least 12 weeks in Study 8 followed by REPATHA 420 mg every 2 weeks for at least 12 weeks. Mean percent change from baseline in LDL-C were −20% at Week 12 of 420 mg once monthly treatment and −30% at Week 12 of 420 mg every 2 weeks treatment, based on available data.

Study 9 (HAUSER-OLE, NCT02624869) was an open-label, single-arm, multicenter, 80-week study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of REPATHA for LDL-C reduction in pediatric patients aged 10 to 17 years with HoFH [see Use in Specific Populations (8.4)]. Patients were on a low-fat diet and receiving background lipid-lowering therapy. Overall, 12 patients with HoFH received 420 mg REPATHA subcutaneously once monthly. The mean age was 12 years (range 11 to 17 years), 17% were female, 75% White, 17% Asian, and 8% Other. Median (Q1, Q3) LDL-C at baseline was 398 (343, 475) mg/dL, and all patients were on statins (atorvastatin or rosuvastatin) and ezetimibe. No patients were receiving lipid apheresis. The diagnosis of HoFH was made by genetic confirmation in all patients but enrollment by a clinical diagnosis was permitted. The median (Q1, Q3) percent change in LDL-C from baseline to Week 80 was −14% (−41, 4). Two of the 3 subjects with < 5% LDLR activity responded to evolocumab treatment.
