Gadoxetate disodium: lo que dice la advertencia en recuadro

Cita de la advertencia en recuadro (Boxed Warning) de la etiqueta aprobada por la FDA. Se muestra en inglés.

WARNING: RISK ASSOCIATED WITH INTRATHECAL USE and NEPHROGENIC SYSTEMIC FIBROSIS Risk Associated with Intrathecal Use Intrathecal administration of gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) can cause serious adverse reactions including death, coma, encephalopathy, and seizures. EOVIST is not approved for intrathecal use [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].

Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis GBCAs increase the risk for nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) among patients with impaired elimination of the drugs. Avoid use of EOVIST in these patients unless the diagnostic information is essential and not available with non-contrasted MRI or other modalities. NSF may result in fatal or debilitating fibrosis affecting the skin, muscle and internal organs. The risk for NSF appears highest among patients with: Chronic, severe kidney disease (GFR < 30 mL/min/1.73m 2), or Acute kidney injury. Screen patients for acute kidney injury and other conditions that may reduce renal function. For patients at risk for chronically reduced renal function (for example, age > 60 years, hypertension or diabetes), estimate the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) through laboratory testing. For patients at highest risk for NSF, do not exceed the recommended EOVIST dose and allow a sufficient period of time for elimination of the drug from the body prior to any re-administration [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)].

(6.1) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceuticals Inc. at 1-888-84-BAYER (1-888-842-2937) 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. Adverse Reactions in Adults The safety of EOVIST was evaluated in 1,989 adult subjects who received EOVIST in clinical trials. Overall, 59% of the subjects were male, and the racial and ethnic distribution was 64% White, 22% Asian, 3% Hispanic or Latino, 2% Black or African American, and 0.5% other ethnic groups. The average age was 57 years (age range from 19 to 84 years). Table 1 lists adverse reactions that occurred in ≥ 0.1% of subjects who received the recommended dose of EOVIST in clinical trials. Table 1: Adverse Reactions Reported in ≥ 0.1% of Adult Subjects who Received EOVIST in Clinical Trials Adverse Reaction EOVIST n = 1,581 Rate (%) Nausea 1.1 Headache 1.1 Feeling hot 0.8 Dizziness 0.6 Back pain 0.6 Vomiting 0.4 Blood pressure increased 0.4 Injection site reactions (pain, burning, coldness, extravasation, irritation) 0.4 Dysgeusia 0.4 Paresthesia 0.3 Flushing 0.3 Parosmia 0.3 Pruritus (generalized, eye) 0.3 Rash 0.3 Respiratory disorders (dyspnea, respiratory distress) 0.2 Fatigue 0.2 Chest pain 0.1 Vertigo 0.1 Dry mouth 0.1 Chills 0.1 Feeling abnormal 0.1 Adverse reactions that occurred with a frequency of < 0.1% in subjects who received EOVIST include: tremor, akathisia, bundle branch block, palpitation, oral discomfort, salivary hypersecretion, maculopapular rash, hyperhidrosis, discomfort, and malaise. Elevation of serum iron values and serum bilirubin laboratory values were reported in < 1% of subjects after administration of EOVIST. The values did not exceed more than 3 times the baseline values and returned to baseline within 1 to 4 days. Adverse Reactions in Pediatric Patients In a study of EOVIST in 52 pediatric patients between 2 months of age and 18 years of age, no new safety signals were observed [see Use in Specific Populations (8.4)]. 6.2 Postmarketing Experience The following additional adverse reactions have been identified during the postmarketing use of EOVIST or other GBCAs. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.

(2.2, 2.3) 2.1 Recommended Dose The recommended dose of EOVIST for adult and pediatric patients, including term neonates, is 0.025 mmol/kg actual body weight (equivalent to 0.1 mL/kg) administered intravenously at a recommended rate of 1 mL/sec to 2 mL/sec. 2.2 Administration and Drug Handling EOVIST is for intravenous use only and must not be administered intrathecally [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]. Use aseptic technique when preparing and administering EOVIST. Visually inspect EOVIST for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration. Do not use the solution if it is discolored or if particulate matter is present. Use EOVIST immediately after obtaining appropriate dose from vial. Pierce the rubber stopper only once. Discard any unused portion of an EOVIST vial. Do not mix EOVIST with other medications and do not administer EOVIST in the same intravenous line simultaneously with other medications. Flush the intravenous cannula with 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection after EOVIST injection. 2.3 Imaging Liver lesions are detected and characterized with pre-contrast MRI and EOVIST MRI obtained during dynamic and hepatocyte imaging phases. Perform a pre-contrast MRI, inject EOVIST, and begin dynamic imaging approximately 15 seconds to 25 seconds after completion of the injection. Dynamic imaging consists of the arterial, the porto-venous (approximately 60 seconds post-injection), and the blood equilibrium (approximately 120 seconds) phases. Begin the hepatocyte imaging phase approximately 20 minutes post-injection. Hepatocyte phase imaging may be performed up to 120 minutes post-injection. Elevated intrinsic levels of bilirubin (>3 mg/dL) or ferritin can reduce the hepatic contrast effect of EOVIST. Perform MR imaging no later than 60 minutes following EOVIST administration to patients with these laboratory abnormalities, including patients who have elevated ferritin levels due to hemodialysis [see Warnings and Precautions (5.8) and Use in Specific Populations (8.6, 8.7)]. Lesions with no or minimal hepatocyte function (cysts, metastases, and the majority of hepatocellular carcinomas) generally will not accumulate EOVIST. Well-differentiated hepatocellular carcinoma may contain functioning hepatocytes and can show some enhancement in the hepatocyte imaging phase. Additional clinical information is therefore needed to support a diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Gadoxetate disodium en el embarazo

Cita de la parte sobre embarazo (Pregnancy) de la etiqueta aprobada por la FDA. Se muestra en inglés. Pregunte a su médico antes de tomar cualquier medicamento si está embarazada o planea estarlo.

Risk Summary GBCAs cross the placenta and result in fetal exposure. In human placental imaging studies, contrast was visualized in the placenta and fetal tissues after maternal GBCA administration. Based on animal studies, use of GBCAs during pregnancy may result in fetal gadolinium retention.

Published epidemiological studies on the association between GBCAs and adverse fetal outcomes have reported inconsistent findings and have important methodological limitations (see Data). In animal reproduction studies, no teratogenicity was observed with repeated daily intravenous administration of gadoxetate disodium to rats during organogenesis at doses up to 32 times the recommended single human dose; however, an increase in preimplantation loss was noted at doses 3.2 times the single human dose. Post implantation loss was observed with repeated daily intravenous administration of gadoxetate disodium to rabbits on gestation days 6 through 18 at doses 26 times the recommended single human dose (see Data). Because of the potential risks of gadolinium to the fetus, use EOVIST only if imaging is essential during pregnancy and cannot be delayed. The background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for 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. Data Human Data Available data regarding exposure to GBCAs during pregnancy from published epidemiological studies are not sufficient to assess the risk of adverse fetal and neonatal effects that may be associated with GBCAs. A retrospective cohort study of over 1.4 million pregnancies in Ontario, Canada, comparing pregnant women who had a GBCA MRI to pregnant women who did not have an MRI, reported a higher occurrence of stillbirths and neonatal deaths in the group receiving GBCA MRI. Limitations of this study include a lack of comparison with non-contrast MRI and lack of information about the maternal indication for MRI. Another retrospective cohort study of over 11 million pregnancies in the Medicaid database found no increased risk of fetal or neonatal death or Neonatal Intensive Care Unit admission when comparing pregnancies exposed to GBCA MRI versus non-contrast MRI. These two retrospective studies assessed a limited number of potential pregnancy outcomes and did not evaluate the full spectrum of potential fetal risk. Animal Data Gadolinium Retention GBCAs administered to pregnant non-human primates (0.1 mmol/kg on gestational days 85 and 135) result in measurable gadolinium concentration in the offspring in bone, brain, skin, liver, kidney, and spleen for at least 7 months. GBCAs administered to pregnant mice (2 mmol/kg daily on gestational days 16 through 19) result in measurable gadolinium concentrations in the pups in bone, brain, kidney, liver, blood, muscle, and spleen at one month postnatal age.
