Demonstrated tolerability in patients with PAH^1,2

Adverse events were mild to moderate in severity, and overall, did not result in treatment discontinuation^1,2*

*This was observed in the safety population, which included all patients who received at least 1 dose of Yutrepia.

SAFETY PROFILE FOR YUTREPIA FROM THE INSPIRE TRIAL^1,2

Adverse reactions occurring in >4% if patients at Month 2 in the safety population.¹

Patients were on stable doses of inhaled treprostinil solution for at least 3 months prior to enrollment in the study and transitioned to treatment with YUTREPIA.¹

Patients were prostacyclin naïve and were taking no more than 2 approved oral PAH therapies for at least 3 months at time of enrollment and addition of treatment with YUTREPIA.¹

INDICATION AND IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

INDICATION

YUTREPIA® is a prostacyclin mimetic indicated for the treatment of:

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH; WHO Group 1) to improve exercise ability. Studies establishing effectiveness predominately included patients with NYHA Functional Class III symptoms and etiologies of idiopathic or heritable PAH (56%) or PAH associated with connective tissue diseases (33%).
Pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD; WHO Group 3) to improve exercise ability. The study establishing effectiveness predominately included patients with etiologies of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (IIP) (45%) inclusive of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema (CPFE) (25%), and WHO Group 3 connective tissue disease (22%).

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

Treprostinil is a pulmonary and systemic vasodilator. In patients with low systemic arterial pressure, treatment with treprostinil may produce symptomatic hypotension.
Treprostinil inhibits platelet aggregation and increases the risk of bleeding.
Co-administration of a cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C8 enzyme inhibitor (e.g., gemfibrozil) may increase exposure (both C_max and AUC) to treprostinil. Co-administration of a CYP2C8 enzyme inducer (e.g., rifampin) may decrease exposure to treprostinil. Increased exposure is likely to increase adverse events associated with treprostinil administration, whereas decreased exposure is likely to reduce clinical effectiveness.
Like other inhaled prostaglandins, YUTREPIA may cause acute bronchospasm. Patients with asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), or other bronchial hyperreactivity, are at increased risk for bronchospasm. Ensure that such patients are treated optimally for reactive airway disease prior to and during treatment with YUTREPIA.

DRUG INTERACTIONS/SPECIFIC POPULATIONS

The concomitant use of treprostinil with diuretics, antihypertensives, or other vasodilators may increase the risk of symptomatic hypotension.
Human pharmacokinetic studies with an oral formulation of treprostinil (treprostinil diolamine) indicated that co-administration of the cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C8 enzyme inhibitor, gemfibrozil, increases exposure (both C_max and AUC) to treprostinil. Co-administration of the CYP2C8 enzyme inducer, rifampin, decreases exposure to treprostinil. It is unclear if the safety and efficacy of treprostinil by the inhalation route are altered by inhibitors or inducers of CYP2C8.
Limited case reports of treprostinil use in pregnant women are insufficient to inform a drug-associated risk of adverse developmental outcomes. However, pulmonary arterial hypertension is associated with an increased risk of maternal and fetal mortality. There are no data on the presence of treprostinil in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production.
Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established.
Placebo-controlled clinical studies of treprostinil inhalation solution did not include sufficient numbers of patients aged 65 years and over to determine whether they respond differently from younger patients. The open label INSPIRE study in patients with PAH included 28 patients aged 65 and over in which no age-related differences were noted. In general, dose selection for an elderly patient should be cautious, reflecting the greater frequency of hepatic, renal, or cardiac dysfunction, and of concomitant diseases or other drug therapy.
Uptitrate slowly when treating patients with hepatic insufficiency because of the risk of an increase in systemic exposure which may lead to an increase in dose-dependent adverse effects. Treprostinil has not been studied in patients with severe hepatic insufficiency.
No dose adjustments are required in patients with renal impairment. Treprostinil is not cleared by dialysis.

ADVERSE REACTIONS

PAH (WHO Group 1): The safety and tolerability of YUTREPIA was evaluated in an open label study (INSPIRE) of 121 patients with PAH (WHO Group 1 and NYHA Functional Class II [80 patients] and Class III [41 patients]) followed for up to 2 months. The most commonly reported adverse reactions included cough, headache, throat irritation, dizziness, which are known side effects of treprostinil inhalation solution. The adverse reactions in the INSPIRE study were consistent with those observed in previous studies of inhaled treprostinil.
PH-ILD (WHO Group 3): In a 16-week, placebo-controlled study of 326 patients with PH-ILD (WHO Group 3), adverse reactions with inhaled treprostinil were similar to the experience in studies of PAH.
