Important Safety Information for HEMGENIX

Warning and Precautions

Infusion Reactions

Infusion reactions, including hypersensitivity reactions and anaphylaxis, may occur. Monitor during administration and for at least 3 hours after end of infusion. If symptoms occur, slow or interrupt administration. Re-start administration at a slower infusion once resolved.

Hepatotoxicity/Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Post-dose, monitor for elevated transaminase levels. Consider corticosteroid treatment should elevations occur. The integration of liver-targeting AAV vector DNA into the genome may carry the theoretical risk of hepatocellular carcinoma development. For patients with preexisting risk factors for hepatocellular carcinogenicity, perform regular (eg, annual) abdominal ultrasound and alpha-fetoprotein testing following administration.

Immune-mediated neutralization of the AAV5 vector capsid

Preexisting neutralizing anti-AAV antibodies may impede transgene expression at desired levels.

Monitoring Laboratory Tests

In addition to monitoring liver function, monitor for Factor IX activity and Factor IX inhibitors after administration.

Adverse Reactions

The most common adverse reactions (incidence ≥5%) were elevated ALT, headache, blood creatine kinase elevations, flu-like symptoms, infusion-related reactions, fatigue, nausea, malaise, and elevated AST.

Indication for HEMGENIX

HEMGENIX®, etranacogene dezaparvovec-drlb, is an adeno-associated virus vector-based gene therapy indicated for the treatment of adults with Hemophilia B (congenital Factor IX deficiency) who:

  • Currently use Factor IX prophylaxis therapy, or
  • Have current or historical life-threatening hemorrhage, or
  • Have repeated, serious spontaneous bleeding episodes.

HEMGENIX is for single use intravenous infusion only.

Contraindications: None.

Please see full prescribing information for HEMGENIX.
