LURASIDONE HYDROCHLORIDE- lurasidone hydrochloride_tablet, coated

The mechanism of action of lurasidone in the treatment of schizophrenia and bipolar depression is unclear. However, its efficacy in schizophrenia and bipolar depression could be mediated through a combination of central dopamine D 2 2A Lurasidone is an antagonist with high affinity binding at the dopamine D 2 2A 7 2C 1A 2A 1 1 50 ECG Changes The effects of lurasidone hydrochloride on the QTc interval were evaluated in a randomized, double-blind, multiple-dose, parallel-dedicated thorough QT study in 43 patients with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder, who were treated with lurasidone hydrochloride tablets doses of 120 mg daily, 600 mg daily and completed the study. The maximum mean (upper 1-sided, 95% CI) increase in baseline-adjusted QTc intervals based on individual correction method (QTcI) was 7. 7) ms and 4. 5) ms, for the 120 mg and 600 mg dose groups respectively, observed at 2 to 4 hours after dosing. In this study, there was no apparent dose (exposure)-response relationship. In short-term, placebo-controlled studies in schizophrenia and bipolar depression, no post-baseline QT prolongations exceeding 500 msec were reported in patients treated with lurasidone hydrochloride or placebo. Adults The activity of lurasidone hydrochloride is primarily due to the parent drug. The pharmacokinetics of lurasidone hydrochloride tablets is dose-proportional within a total daily dose range of 20 mg to 160 mg. Steady-state concentrations of lurasidone hydrochloride are reached within 7 days of starting lurasidone hydrochloride. Following administration of 40 mg of lurasidone hydrochloride tablets, the mean (%CV) elimination half-life was 18 (7) hours. Absorption and Distribution: In a food effect study, lurasidone hydrochloride mean C max [ Dosage and Administration ( 2. 3 In clinical studies, establishing the safety and efficacy of lurasidone hydrochloride, patients were instructed to take their daily dose with food [see Dosage and Administration ( 2. 3 Metabolism and Elimination: N S in vitro Transporter proteins: In vitro In vitro Total excretion of radioactivity in urine and feces combined was approximately 89%, with about 80% recovered in feces and 9% recovered in urine, after a single dose of [ 14 Following administration of 40 mg of lurasidone hydrochloride tablets, the mean (%CV) apparent clearance was 3,902 (18. Drug Interaction Studies Effects of other drugs on the exposure of lurasidone are summarized in Figure 1. A population PK analyses concluded that coadministration of lithium 300 mg/day to 2,400 mg/day or valproate 300 mg/day to 2,000 mg/day with lurasidone for up to 6 weeks has minimal effect on lurasidone exposure. And the effects of lurasidone hydrochloride on the exposures of other drugs are summarized in Figure 2. A population PK analyses concluded that coadministration of lurasidone has minimal effect on lithium and valproate exposure when it is coadministered with lithium 300 mg/day to 2,400 mg/day or valproate 300 mg/day to 2,000 mg/day. Figure 1 Impact of Other Drugs on Lurasidone Hydrochloride Pharmacokinetics Figure 2 Impact of Lurasidone Hydrochloride on Other Drugs Studies in Specific Populations The effect of intrinsic patient factors on the pharmacokinetics of lurasidone hydrochloride is presented in Figure 3. Pediatric Patients Lurasidone hydrochloride exposure (i. , steady-state Cmax and AUC) in children and adolescent patients (10 to 17 years of age) was generally similar to that in adults across the dose range from 40 to 160 mg, without adjusting for body weight.

Adults The information below is derived from an integrated clinical study database for lurasidone hydrochloride consisting of 3,799 adult patients exposed to one or more doses of lurasidone hydrochloride for the treatment of schizophrenia and bipolar depression in placebo-controlled studies. This experience corresponds with a total experience of 1,250. 9 patient-years. A total of 1,106 lurasidone hydrochloride-treated patients had at least 24 weeks and 371 lurasidone hydrochloride-treated patients had at least 52 weeks of exposure. Adverse events during exposure to study treatment were obtained by general inquiry and voluntarily reported adverse experiences, as well as results from physical examinations, vital signs, ECGs, weights and laboratory investigations. Adverse experiences were recorded by clinical investigators using their own terminology. In order to provide a meaningful estimate of the proportion of individuals experiencing adverse events, events were grouped in standardized categories using MedDRA terminology. Schizophrenia The following findings are based on the short-term, placebo-controlled premarketing adult studies for schizophrenia in which lurasidone hydrochloride tablets was administered at daily doses ranging from 20 mg to 160 mg (n=1,508). Commonly Observed Adverse Reactions: The most common adverse reactions (incidence >= 5% and at least twice the rate of placebo) in patients treated with lurasidone hydrochloride were somnolence, akathisia, extrapyramidal symptoms, and nausea. Adverse Reactions Associated with Discontinuation of Treatment: A total of 9. 5% (143/1,508) lurasidone hydrochloride-treated patients and 9. 3% (66/708) of placebo-treated patients discontinued due to adverse reactions.

Dystonia Class Effect: Schizophrenia Adults In the short-term, placebo-controlled schizophrenia clinical studies, dystonia occurred in 4. 2% of lurasidone hydrochloride-treated subjects (0. 0% lurasidone hydrochloride tablets 20 mg, 3. 5% lurasidone hydrochloride tablets 40 mg, 4. 5% lurasidone hydrochloride tablets 80 mg, 6. 5% lurasidone hydrochloride tablets 120 mg and 2. 5% lurasidone hydrochloride tablets 160 mg) compared to 0. 8% of subjects receiving placebo. Seven subjects (0. 5%, 7/1,508) discontinued clinical trials due to dystonic events en dash four were receiving lurasidone hydrochloride tablets 80 mg/day and three were receiving lurasidone hydrochloride tablets 120 mg/day. Adolescents In the short-term, placebo-controlled, adolescent schizophrenia study, dystonia occurred in 1% of lurasidone hydrochloride -treated patients (1% lurasidone hydrochloride 40 mg and 1% lurasidone hydrochloride 80 mg) compared to 0% of patients receiving placebo. No patients discontinued the clinical study due to dystonic events. Bipolar Depression Adults Monotherapy In the adult short-term, flexible-dose, placebo-controlled monotherapy bipolar depression study, dystonia occurred in 0. 9% of lurasidone hydrochloride-treated subjects (0. 8% for lurasidone hydrochloride tablets 20 mg/day to 60 mg/day and lurasidone hydrochloride tablets 80 mg/day to 120 mg/day, respectively) compared to 0. No subject discontinued the clinical study due to dystonic events. Adjunctive Therapy with Lithium or Valproate In the adult short-term, flexible-dose, placebo-controlled adjunctive therapy bipolar depression studies, dystonia occurred in 1. 1% of lurasidone hydrochloride tablets-treated subjects (20 mg to 120 mg) compared to 0. 6% of subjects receiving placebo.

Pregnancy: May cause extrapyramidal and or/withdrawal symptoms in neonates with third trimester exposure ( 8. 1 Pregnancy Exposure Registry There is a pregnancy exposure registry that monitors pregnancy outcomes in women exposed to lurasidone hydrochloride during pregnancy. For more information, contact the National Pregnancy Registry for Atypical Antipsychotics at 1-866-961-2388 or visit http://womensmentalhealth. org/clinical-andresearchprograms/pregnancyregistry/. Risk Summary Neonates exposed to antipsychotic drugs during the third trimester of pregnancy are at risk for extrapyramidal and/or withdrawal symptoms following delivery [see Clinical Considerations] 2 [see Data] The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population(s) is unknown. All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defect, loss or other adverse outcomes. 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. Clinical Considerations Fetal/Neonatal Adverse Reactions Extrapyramidal and/or withdrawal symptoms, including agitation, hypertonia, hypotonia, tremor, somnolence, respiratory distress and feeding disorder have been reported in neonates who were exposed to antipsychotic drugs during the third trimester of pregnancy. These symptoms have varied in severity. Some neonates recovered within hours or days without specific treatment; others required prolonged hospitalization. Monitor neonates for extrapyramidal and/or withdrawal symptoms and manage symptoms appropriately. Data Animal Data Pregnant rats were treated with oral lurasidone at doses of 3 mg/kg/day, 10 mg/kg/day, and 25 mg/kg/day during the period of organogenesis. These doses are 0. 6 times, and 1. 5 times the MRHD of 160 mg/day based on mg/m 2 2 Pregnant rabbits were treated with oral lurasidone at doses of 2 mg/kg/day, 10 mg/kg/day, and 50 mg/kg/day during the period of organogenesis. 2 times and 6 times the MRHD of 160 mg/day based on mg/m 2 2 Pregnant rats were treated with oral lurasidone at doses of 0. 4 mg/kg/day, 2 mg/kg/day, and 10 mg/kg/day during the periods of organogenesis and lactation. 02 times, 0. 1 times and 0. 6 times the MRHD of 160 mg/day based on mg/m 2 2 Risk Summary Lactation studies have not been conducted to assess the presence of lurasidone in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. Lurasidone is present in rat milk. The development and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother's clinical need for lurasidone hydrochloride and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from lurasidone hydrochloride or from the underlying maternal condition. Schizophrenia The safety and effectiveness of lurasidone hydrochloride tablets 40-mg/day and 80-mg/day for the treatment of schizophrenia in adolescents (13 to 17 years) was established in a 6-week, placebo-controlled clinical study in 326 adolescent patients [see Dosage and Administration ( 2. 1 The safety and effectiveness of lurasidone hydrochloride has not been established in pediatric patients less than 13 years of age with schizophrenia. Bipolar Depression The safety and effectiveness of lurasidone hydrochloride tablets 20 to 80 mg/day for the treatment of bipolar depression in pediatric patients (10 to 17 years) was established in a 6-week, placebo-controlled clinical study in 347 pediatric patients [ see Dosage and Administration ( 2. 2 ), Adverse Reactions ( 6. 1 ), and Clinical Studies ( 14. The safety and effectiveness of lurasidone hydrochloride has not been established in pediatric patients less than 10 years of age with bipolar depression. Irritability Associated with Autistic Disorder The effectiveness of lurasidone hydrochloride in pediatric patients for the treatment of irritability associated with autistic disorder has not been established. Efficacy was not demonstrated in a 6-week study evaluating lurasidone hydrochloride 20 mg/day and 60 mg/day for the treatment of pediatric patients 6 years to 17 years of age with irritability associated with autistic disorder diagnosed by Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th Ed. , Text Revision [DSM-IV-TR] criteria. The primary objective of the study as measured by improvement from Baseline in the irritability subscale of the Aberrant Behavior Checklist (ABC) at Endpoint (Week 6) was not met. A total of 149 patients were randomized to lurasidone hydrochloride or placebo. Vomiting occurred at a higher rate than reported in other lurasidone hydrochloride studies (4/49 or 8% for 20 mg, 14/51 or 27% for 60 mg, and 2/49 or 4% for placebo), particularly in children ages 6 to 12 (13 out of 18 patients on lurasidone hydrochloride with vomiting). In a long-term, open-label study that enrolled pediatric patients (age 6 to 17 years) with schizophrenia, bipolar depression, or autistic disorder from three short-term, placebo-controlled trials, 54% (378/701) received lurasidone for 104 weeks. There was one adverse event in this trial that was considered possibly drug-related and has not been reported in adults receiving lurasidone: a 10 year old male experienced a prolonged, painful erection, consistent with priapism, that led to treatment discontinuation. In this trial, the mean increase in height from open-label baseline to Week 104 was 4. To adjust for normal growth, z-scores were derived (measured in standard deviations [SD]), which normalize for the natural growth of children and adolescents by comparisons to age- and sex-matched population standards. A z-score change <0. 5 SD is considered not clinically significant. In this trial, the mean change in height z-score from open-label baseline to Week 104 was +0. 05 SD, indicating minimal deviation from the normal growth curve. Juvenile animal studies Adverse effects were seen on growth, physical and neurobehavioral development at doses as low as 0. 2 times the MRHD based on mg/m 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 Clinical studies with lurasidone hydrochloride did not include sufficient numbers of patients aged 65 and older to determine whether or not they respond differently from younger patients. In elderly patients with psychosis (65 to 85), lurasidone hydrochloride concentrations (20 mg/day) were similar to those in young subjects. It is unknown whether dose adjustment is necessary on the basis of age alone. Elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis treated with lurasidone hydrochloride are at an increased risk of death compared to placebo. Lurasidone hydrochloride is not approved for the treatment of patients with dementia-related psychosis [ see Boxed Warning Warnings and Precautions ( 5. 3 Reduce the maximum recommended dosage in patients with moderate or severe renal impairment (CLcr<50 mL/minute). Patients with impaired renal function (CLcr<50 mL/minute) had higher exposure to lurasidone than patients with normal renal function [ see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12. 3 see Dosage and Administration ( 2. 4 Reduce the maximum recommended dosage in patients with moderate to severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh score >=7). Patients with moderate to severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh score >=7) generally had higher exposure to lurasidone than patients with normal hepatic function [ see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12. 5 No dosage adjustment for lurasidone hydrochloride is required on the basis of a patient's sex, race, or smoking status [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.

Table 34 Clinically Important Drug Interactions with Lurasidone Hydrochloride Strong CYP3A4 Inhibitors Clinical Impact: Concomitant use of lurasidone hydrochloride with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors increased the exposure of lurasidone compared to the use of lurasidone hydrochloride alone [ see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12. 3 Intervention: Lurasidone hydrochloride should not be used concomitantly with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors [ see Contraindications ( 4 Examples: Ketoconazole, clarithromycin, ritonavir, voriconazole, mibefradil Moderate CYP3A4 Inhibitors Clinical Impact: Concomitant use of lurasidone hydrochloride with moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors increased the exposure of lurasidone compared to the use of lurasidone hydrochloride alone [ see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12. 3 Intervention: Lurasidone hydrochloride dose should be reduced to half of the original level when used concomitantly with moderate inhibitors of CYP3A4 [ see Dosage and Administration ( 2. 6 Examples: Diltiazem, atazanavir, erythromycin, fluconazole, verapamil Strong CYP3A4 Inducers Clinical Impact: Concomitant use of lurasidone hydrochloride with strong CYP3A4 inducers decreased the exposure of lurasidone compared to the use of lurasidone hydrochloride alone [ see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12. 3 Intervention: Lurasidone hydrochloride should not be used concomitantly with strong CYP3A4 inducers [ see Contraindications ( 4 Examples: Rifampin, avasimibe, St. John's wort, phenytoin, carbamazepine Moderate CYP3A4 Inducers Clinical Impact: Concomitant use of lurasidone hydrochloride with moderate CYP3A4 inducers decreased the exposure of lurasidone compared to the use of lurasidone hydrochloride alone [ see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12. 3 Intervention: Lurasidone hydrochloride dose should be increased when used concomitantly with moderate inducers of CYP3A4 [ see Dosage and Administration ( 2. 6 Examples: Bosentan, efavirenz, etravirine, modafinil, nafcillin Based on pharmacokinetic studies, no dosage adjustment of Lurasidone hydrochloride is required when administered concomitantly with lithium, valproate, or substrates of P-gp or CYP3A4 [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.

OVERDOSAGE
In premarketing clinical studies, accidental or intentional overdosage of lurasidone hydrochloride tablets was identified in one patient who ingested an estimated 560 mg of lurasidone hydrochloride. This patient recovered without sequelae. This patient resumed lurasidone hydrochloride treatment for an additional two months. No specific antidotes for lurasidone hydrochloride are known. In managing overdose, provide supportive care, including close medical supervision and monitoring, and consider the possibility of multiple drug involvement. If an overdose occurs, consult a Certified Poison Control Center (1-800-222-1222 or www. Cardiovascular monitoring should commence immediately, including continuous electrocardiographic monitoring for possible arrhythmias. If antiarrhythmic therapy is administered, disopyramide, procainamide, and quinidine carry a theoretical hazard of additive QT-prolonging effects when administered in patients with an acute overdose of lurasidone hydrochloride. Similarly, the alpha-blocking properties of bretylium might be additive to those of lurasidone hydrochloride, resulting in problematic hypote nsion. Hypotension and circulatory collapse should be treated with appropriate measures. Epinephrine and dopamine should not be used, or other sympathomimetics with beta-agonist activity, since beta stimulation may worsen hypotension in the setting of lurasidone hydrochloride-induced alpha blockade. In case of severe extrapyramidal symptoms, anticholinergic medication should be administered. Gastric lavage (after intubation if patient is unconscious) and administration of activated charcoal together with a laxative should be considered. The possibility of obtundation, seizures, or dystonic reaction of the head and neck following overdose may create a risk of aspiration with induced emesis.
NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY
Carcinogenesis: Lurasidone increased the incidence of mammary gland carcinomas in female rats orally dosed at 12 mg/kg/day and 36 mg/kg/day: the lowest dose; 3 mg/kg/day is the no-effect dose which produced plasma levels (AUC) 0.4 times those in humans receiving the MRHD. No increases in tumors were seen in male rats up to the highest dose tested, which produced plasma levels (AUC) 6 times those in humans receiving the MRHD. Proliferative and/or neoplastic changes in the mammary and pituitary glands of rodents have been observed following chronic administration of antipsychotic drugs and are considered to be prolactin-mediated [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.7 Mutagenesis: in vitro in vivo test battery in vivo 2 Impairment of Fertility: 2 2 Lurasidone had no effect on fertility in male rats treated orally for 64 consecutive days prior to mating and during the mating period at doses up to 9 times the MRHD based on mg/m 2
CLINICAL STUDIES
Adults The efficacy of lurasidone hydrochloride for the treatment of schizophrenia was established in five short-term (6-week), placebo-controlled studies in adult patients (mean age of 38. 4 years, range 18 to 72) who met DSM-IV criteria for schizophrenia. An active-control arm (olanzapine or quetiapine extended-release) was included in two studies to assess assay sensitivity. Several instruments were used for assessing psychiatric signs and symptoms in these studies: Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS), is a multi-item inventory of general psychopathology used to evaluate the effects of drug treatment in schizophrenia. PANSS total scores may range from 30 to 210. Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale derived (BPRSd), derived from the PANSS, is a multi-item inventory primarily focusing on positive symptoms of schizophrenia, whereas the PANSS includes a wider range of positive, negative and other symptoms of schizophrenia. The BPRSd consists of 18 items rated on a scale of 1 (not present) to 7 (severe). BPRSd scores may range from 18 to 126. The Clinical Global Impression severity scale (CGI-S) is a clinician-rated scale that measures the subject''s current illness state on a 1- to 7-point scale. The endpoint associated with each instrument is change from baseline in the total score to the end of week 6. These changes are then compared to placebo changes for the drug and control groups. The results of the studies follow: Study 1: In a 6-week, placebo-controlled trial (N=145) involving two fixed doses of lurasidone hydrochloride tablets (40 mg/day or 120 mg/day), both doses of lurasidone hydrochloride tablets at Endpoint were superior to placebo on the BPRSd total score, and the CGI-S. Study 2: In a 6-week, placebo-controlled trial (N=180) involving a fixed dose of lurasidone hydrochloride tablets (80 mg/day), lurasidone hydrochloride tablets at Endpoint was superior to placebo on the BPRSd total score, and the CGI-S. Study 3: In a 6-week, placebo- and active-controlled trial (N=473) involving two fixed doses of lurasidone hydrochloride tablets (40 mg/day or 120 mg/day) and an active control (olanzapine), both lurasidone hydrochloride tablets doses and the active control at Endpoint were superior to placebo on the PANSS total score, and the CGI-S. Study 4: In a 6-week, placebo-controlled trial (N=489) involving three fixed doses of lurasidone hydrochloride tablets (40 mg/day, 80 mg/day or 120 mg/day), only the 80 mg/day dose of lurasidone hydrochloride tablets at Endpoint was superior to placebo on the PANSS total score, and the CGI-S. Study 5: In a 6-week, placebo- and active-controlled trial (N=482) involving two fixed doses of lurasidone hydrochloride tablets (80 mg/day or 160 mg/day) and an active control (quetiapine extended-release), both lurasidone hydrochloride tablets doses and the active control at Endpoint were superior to placebo on the PANSS total score, and the CGI-S. Thus, the efficacy of lurasidone hydrochloride tablets at doses of 40 mg/day, 80 mg/day, 120 mg/day and 160 mg/day has been established (Table 35).

Adolescents (13-17 years) The efficacy of lurasidone hydrochloride, was established in a 6-week, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of adolescents (13 to 17 years) who met DSM-IV-TR criteria for schizophrenia (N=326). Patients were randomized to one of two fixed-doses of lurasidone hydrochloride tablets (40 or 80 mg/day) or placebo. The primary rating instrument used to assess psychiatric signs and symptoms was the PANSS. The key secondary instrument was the CGI-S. For both dose groups, lurasidone hydrochloride was superior to placebo in reduction of PANSS and CGI-S scores at Week 6. On average, the 80 mg/day dose did not provide additional benefit compared to the 40 mg/day dose. The primary efficacy results are provided in Table 36.

Patients were randomized to one of two flexible-dose ranges of lurasidone hydrochloride tablets (20 mg/day to 60 mg/day, or 80 mg/day to 120 mg/day) or placebo. The primary rating instrument used to assess depressive symptoms in this study was the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS), a 10-item clinician-rated scale with total scores ranging from 0 (no depressive features) to 60 (maximum score). The primary endpoint was the change from baseline in MADRS score at Week 6. The key secondary instrument was the Clinical Global Impression-Bipolar-Severity of Illness scale (CGI-BP-S), a clinician-rated scale that measures the subject''s current illness state on a 7-point scale, where a higher score is associated with greater illness severity. For both dose groups, lurasidone hydrochloride tablets were superior to placebo in reduction of MADRS and CGI-BP-S scores at Week 6. The primary efficacy results are provided in Table 37. The high dose range (80 mg per day to 120 mg per day) did not provide additional efficacy on average, compared to the low dose range (20 mg per day to 60 mg per day). Adjunctive Therapy with Lithium or Valproate The efficacy of lurasidone hydrochloride, as an adjunctive therapy with lithium or valproate, was established in a 6-week, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of adult patients (mean age of 41. 7 years, range 18 to 72) who met DSM-IV-TR criteria for major depressive episodes associated with bipolar I disorder, with or without rapid cycling, and without psychotic features (N=340). Patients who remained symptomatic after treatment with lithium or valproate were randomized to flexibly dosed lurasidone hydrochloride tablets 20 mg/day to 120 mg/day or placebo. The primary rating instrument used to assess depressive symptoms in this study was the MADRS. The key secondary instrument was the CGI-BP-S scale. Lurasidone hydrochloride was superior to placebo in reduction of MADRS and CGI-BP-S scores at Week 6, as an adjunctive therapy with lithium or valproate (Table 37).

Patients were randomized to flexibly dosed lurasidone hydrochloride tablets 20 to 80 mg/day or placebo. At the end of the clinical study, most patients (67%) received 20 mg/day or 40 mg/day. The primary rating scale used to assess depressive symptoms in this study was the Children''s Depression Rating Scale, Revised (CDRS-R) total score. The CDRS-R is a 17-item clinician-rated scale with total scores ranging from 17 to 113. The primary endpoint was the change from baseline in CDRS-R score at Week 6. The key secondary endpoint was the change from baseline in CGIBP-S depression score. Lurasidone hydrochloride was superior to placebo in reduction of CDRS-R total score and CGI-BP-S depression score at Week 6. The primary efficacy results are provided in Table 38.
