(6.1) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Genzyme at 1-800-633-1610, option 1 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch. 6.1 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. In clinical trials, the most common adverse reactions (≥5%) following intravenous alglucosidase alfa treatment were hypersensitivity reactions, and included anaphylaxis, rash, pyrexia, flushing/feeling hot, urticaria, headache, hyperhidrosis, nausea, cough, decreased oxygen saturation, tachycardia, tachypnea, chest discomfort, dizziness, muscle twitching, agitation, cyanosis, erythema, hypertension/increased blood pressure, pallor, rigors, tremor, vomiting, fatigue, and myalgia. Adverse Reactions in Clinical Trials in Infantile-Onset and Juvenile-Onset Pompe Disease Two multicenter, open-label clinical trials (Trials 1 and 2) [see Clinical Studies (14.1)] were conducted in 39 patients with infantile-onset Pompe disease (IOPD), aged 1 month to 3.5 years old. Approximately half of the patients (54%) were male. Patients were treated with intravenous alglucosidase alfa 20 or 40 mg/kg every other week for periods ranging from 1 to 106 weeks (mean: 61 weeks). The most serious adverse reactions reported with alglucosidase alfa treatment included anaphylaxis and acute cardiorespiratory failure. The most common adverse reactions requiring intervention in these clinical trials were hypersensitivity reactions, that occurred in 20 of 39 (51%) patients treated with alglucosidase alfa, and included rash, pyrexia, urticaria, flushing, decreased oxygen saturation, cough, tachypnea, tachycardia, hypertension/increased blood pressure, pallor, rigors, vomiting, cyanosis, agitation, and tremor. These reactions were more likely to occur with higher infusion rates or doses. Some patients who were pretreated with antihistamines, antipyretics and/or corticosteroids still experienced hypersensitivity reactions. Table 2 summarizes all adverse reactions that occurred in ≥5% of patients (2 or more patients) treated with alglucosidase alfa in clinical trials described above.

(2.3) See full prescribing information for storage of the reconstituted and diluted product and administration instructions (2.4, 2.5) 2.1 Recommendations prior to LUMIZYME Treatment Administration of LUMIZYME should be supervised by a healthcare provider knowledgeable in the management of hypersensitivity reactions including anaphylaxis [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]. Initiate LUMIZYME in a healthcare setting with appropriate medical monitoring and support measures, including access to cardiopulmonary resuscitation equipment [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]. Prior to LUMIZYME administration, consider pretreating with antihistamines, antipyretics, and/or corticosteroids [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1, 5.2)]. LUMIZYME must be reconstituted and diluted prior to use [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)]. Appropriate medical monitoring and support measures, including cardiopulmonary resuscitation equipment, should be readily available during LUMIZYME administration [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]. 2.2 Recommended Dosage and Administration The recommended dosage of LUMIZYME is 20 mg/kg body weight administered every 2 weeks as an intravenous infusion. The initial infusion rate should be no more than 1 mg/kg/hour [see Dosage and Administration (2.5)]. Missed Dose If one or more doses are missed, restart LUMIZYME treatment as soon as possible, maintaining the 2-week interval between infusions thereafter. 2.3 Reconstitution and Dilution Instructions Reconstitute and dilute LUMIZYME in the following manner. Use aseptic technique during preparation. Do not use filter needles during preparation. Reconstitute the Lyophilized Powder Determine the number of LUMIZYME vials to be reconstituted based on the actual body weight in kg and the recommended dose of 20 mg/kg. Round the number of vials up to the next whole number. Remove the required number of LUMIZYME vials from the refrigerator and allow the vials to sit for approximately 30 minutes at room temperature 20°C to 25°C (68°F to 77°F) prior to reconstitution. Reconstitute each vial by slowly injecting 10.3 mL of Sterile Water for Injection, down the inside wall of each vial. Avoid adding the Sterile Water for Injection to the vial forcefully or directly onto the lyophilized powder to minimize foaming. Gently tilt and roll each vial. Do not invert, swirl, or shake the vial. Each vial will yield a concentration of 5 mg/mL of LUMIZYME. The total extractable dose per vial is 50 mg per 10 mL. Visually inspect the reconstituted solution in the vials for particulate matter and discoloration. Discard if particles are present or the solution is discolored.

Risk Summary Data from postmarketing reports and published case reports with alglucosidase alfa use in pregnant women have not identified a LUMIZYME-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. The continuation of treatment for Pompe disease during pregnancy should be individualized to the pregnant woman. Untreated Pompe disease may result in worsening disease symptoms in pregnant women (see Clinical Considerations). Reproduction studies performed in mice and rabbits at doses resulting in exposures up to 0.4 or 0.5 times the human steady-state AUC (area under the plasma concentration-time curve), respectively, during the period of organogenesis revealed no evidence of effects on embryo-fetal development. In mice there was an increase in pup mortality during lactation at maternal exposures 0.4 times the human steady-state AUC (see Data). The background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in the indicated population is unknown. All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defect, loss or other adverse outcomes. In the U.S. 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 Disease-associated Maternal and/or Embryo-fetal Risk Untreated Pompe disease has been associated with worsening respiratory and musculoskeletal symptoms in some pregnant women. Data Animal Data All reproductive studies included pretreatment with diphenhydramine to prevent or minimize hypersensitivity reactions. The effects of alglucosidase alfa were evaluated based on comparison to a control group treated with diphenhydramine alone. Daily intravenous administration of alglucosidase alfa up to 40 mg/kg in mice and rabbits (0.4 and 0.5 times the human steady-state AUC, respectively, at the recommended biweekly dose) during the period of organogenesis had no effects on embryo-fetal development. Administration of 40 mg/kg intravenously every other day in mice (0.4 times the human steady-state AUC at the recommended biweekly dose) during the period of organogenesis through lactation produced an increase in mortality of offspring during the lactation period.
