SPEVIGO (spesolimab-sbzo)

A population pharmacokinetic model was developed based on data collected from healthy subjects, patients with GPP, and patients with other diseases. After a single intravenous dose of 900 mg of SPEVIGO, the population PK model-estimated AUC 0-∞ (95% CI) and C max (95% CI) in a typical anti-drug antibody (ADA)-negative patient with GPP were 4750 (4510, 4970) mcg ∙ day/mL and 238 (218, 256) mcg/mL, respectively. After subcutaneous SPEVIGO 600 mg LD followed by 300 mg every 4 weeks, the mean steady...

Intravenous SPEVIGO for Treatment of GPP Flare (Study Effisayil-1) A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study (Study Effisayil-1) [NCT03782792] was conducted to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of intravenous SPEVIGO in adult subjects with flares of generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP). Subjects were randomized if they had a flare of GPP of moderate-to-severe intensity, as defined by: A Generalized Pustular Psoriasis Physician Global Assessment (GPPPGA) total score of at least 3 (moderate) [the total GPPPGA score ranges from 0 (clear) to 4 (severe)], The presence of fresh pu...

The following adverse reactions are discussed in greater detail in other sections of the labeling: Infections [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] Hypersensitivity and Infusion-Related Reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ] Treatment of GPP When Not Experiencing a Flare: SPEVIGO has been associated with an increased incidence (≥9 cases per 100 patient-years) of injection site reaction, urinary tract infection, arthralgia, and pruritus. ( 6.1 ) Treatment of GPP Flare: The most common ad...

SPEVIGO is contraindicated in patients with severe or life-threatening hypersensitivity to spesolimab-sbzo or to any of the excipients in SPEVIGO. Reported hypersensitivity reactions have included drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) and anaphylaxis [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) and Adverse Reactions (6) ] . Severe or life-threatening hypersensitivity to spesolimab-s...

Infections: SPEVIGO may increase the risk of infections. Treatment with SPEVIGO is not recommended during any clinically important active infection. Instruct patients to seek medical advice if signs or symptoms of clinically important infection occur during or after treatment. If a clinically important active infection develops, discontinue SPEVIGO until the infection resolves or is adequately treated. ( 5.1 ) Risk of Tuberculosis (TB): Evaluate patients for TB prior to initiating treatment with...
