Warnings

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Severe, potentially life threatening and fatal skin reactions have been reported. This includes cases of Stevens-Johnson syndrome, hypersensitivity reaction, toxic epidermal necrolysis and erythema multiforme. Immediately discontinue treatment if severe hypersensitivity, severe rash or rash with systemic symptoms or liver transaminase elevations develops and monitor clinical status, including liver transaminases closely. ( 5.1 ) Monitor for immune reconstitution syndrome and fat redistribution. ( 5.3, 5.4 ) 5.1 Severe Skin and Hypersensitivity Reactions Severe, potentially life-threatening and fatal skin reactions have been reported. In clinical trials, these include cases of Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis and erythema multiforme. Hypersensitivity reactions including Drug Rash with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms (DRESS) have also been reported and were characterized by rash, constitutional findings, and sometimes organ dysfunction, including hepatic failure. In Phase 3 clinical trials, Grade 3 and 4 rashes were reported in 1.3% of subjects receiving etravirine compared to 0.2% of placebo subjects. A total of 2.2% of HIV-1-infected subjects receiving etravirine discontinued from Phase 3 trials due to rash [see Adverse Reactions (6.1 )] . Rash occurred most commonly during the first 6 weeks of therapy. The incidence of rash was higher in females [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] . Stevens-Johnson syndrome was reported in 1.1% (2/177) of pediatric patients less than 18 years of age receiving etravirine in combination with other HIV-1 antiretroviral agents in an observational study. Discontinue etravirine immediately if signs or symptoms of severe skin reactions or hypersensitivity reactions develop (including, but not limited to, severe rash or rash accompanied by fever, general malaise, fatigue, muscle or joint aches, blisters, oral lesions, conjunctivitis, facial edema, hepatitis, eosinophilia, angioedema). Clinical status including liver transaminases should be monitored and appropriate therapy initiated. Delay in stopping etravirine treatment after the onset of severe rash may result in a life-threatening reaction. 5.2 Risk of Adverse Reactions or Loss of Virologic Response Due to Drug Interactions The concomitant use of etravirine and other drugs may result in potentially significant drug interactions, some of which may lead to [see Drug Interactions (7.3) ]: Loss of therapeutic effect of concomitant drug or etravirine and possible development of resistance. Possible clinically significant adverse reactions from greater exposures of etravirine or other concomitant drugs. See Table 4 for steps to prevent or manage these possible and known significant drug interactions, including dosing recommendations. Consider the potential for drug interactions prior to and during etravirine therapy and review concomitant medications during etravirine therapy. 5.3 Immune Reconstitution Syndrome Immune reconstitution syndrome has been reported in patients treated with combination antiretroviral therapy, including etravirine. During the initial phase of combination antiretroviral treatment, patients whose immune system responds may develop an inflammatory response to indolent or residual opportunistic infections (such as Mycobacterium avium infection, cytomegalovirus, Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia (PCP) or tuberculosis), which may necessitate further evaluation and treatment. Autoimmune disorders (such as Graves' disease, polymyositis, Guillain-Barré syndrome, and autoimmune hepatitis) have also been reported to occur in the setting of immune reconstitution; however, the time to onset is more variable, and can occur many months after initiation of treatment. 5.4 Fat Redistribution Redistribution/accumulation of body fat, including central obesity, dorsocervical fat enlargement (buffalo hump), peripheral wasting, facial wasting, breast enlargement, and "cushingoid appearance" have been observed in patients receiving antiretroviral therapy. The mechanism and long-term consequences of these events are currently unknown. A causal relationship has not been established. 5.1 Severe Skin and Hypersensitivity Reactions Severe, potentially life-threatening and fatal skin reactions have been reported. In clinical trials, these include cases of Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis and erythema multiforme. Hypersensitivity reactions including Drug Rash with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms (DRESS) have also been reported and were characterized by rash, constitutional findings, and sometimes organ dysfunction, including hepatic failure.

Drug interactions

DRUG INTERACTIONS Co-administration of etravirine with other drugs can alter the concentrations of other drugs and other drugs may alter the concentrations of etravirine. The potential drug-drug interactions must be considered prior to and during therapy. ( 7 , 12.3 ) 7.1 Potential for Other Drugs to Affect Etravirine Tablets Etravirine is a substrate of CYP3A, CYP2C9, and CYP2C19. Therefore, co-administration of etravirine tablets with drugs that induce or inhibit CYP3A, CYP2C9, and CYP2C19 may alter the therapeutic effect or adverse reaction profile of etravirine tablets (see Table 4) [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]. 7.2 Potential for Etravirine Tablets to Affect Other Drugs Etravirine is an inducer of CYP3A and inhibitor of CYP2C9, CYP2C19 and P-glycoprotein (P-gp). Therefore, co-administration of drugs that are substrates of CYP3A, CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 or are transported by P-gp with etravirine tablets may alter the therapeutic effect or adverse reaction profile of the co-administered drug(s) (see Table 4) [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]. 7.3 Significant Drug Interactions Table 4 shows significant drug interactions based on which, alterations in dose or regimen of etravirine tablets and/or co-administered drug may be recommended. Drugs that are not recommended for co-administration with etravirine tablets are also included in Table 4 [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] . Table 4: Significant Drug Interactions Concomitant Drug Class: Drug Name Effect on Concentration of Etravirine or Concomitant Drug Clinical Comment ↑ = increase; ↓ = decrease; ↔ = no change HIV-antiviral agents: integrase strand inhibitors dolutegravir The interaction between INTELENCE and the drug was evaluated in a clinical study. All other drug interactions shown are predicted. ↓ dolutegravir ↔ etravirine Etravirine significantly reduced plasma concentrations of dolutegravir. Using cross - study comparisons to historical pharmacokinetic data for etravirine, dolutegravir did not appear to affect the pharmacokinetics of etravirine. dolutegravir/darunavir/ritonavir ↓ dolutegravir ↔ etravirine The effect of etravirine on dolutegravir plasma concentrations was mitigated by co- administration of darunavir/ritonavir or lopinavir/ritonavir, and is expected to be mitigated by atazanavir/ritonavir. dolutegravir/lopinavir/ritonavir ↔ dolutegravir ↔ etravirine Dolutegravir should only be used with etravirine tablets when co- administered with atazanavir/ritonavir, darunavir/ritonavir, or lopinavir/ritonavir. HIV-antiviral agents: non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) efavirenz nevirapine ↓ etravirine Combining two NNRTIs has not been shown to be beneficial. Concomitant use of etravirine tablets with efavirenz or nevirapine may cause a significant decrease in the plasma concentrations of Etravirine and loss of therapeutic effect of etravirine tablets. Co-administration of etravirine tablets and other NNRTIs is not recommended. delavirdine rilpivirine ↓ etravirine ↓ rilpivirine ↔ etravirine Combining two NNRTIs has not been shown to be beneficial. Etravirine tablets and delavirdine should not be co-administered. Combining two NNRTIs has not been shown to be beneficial. Co- administration of etravirine tablets and rilpivirine is not recommended. HIV-antiviral agents: protease inhibitors (PIs) atazanavir (without ritonavir) atazanavir/ritonavir atazanavir/cobicistat darunavir/ritonavir darunavir/cobicistat fosamprenavir (without ritonavir) fosamprenavir/ritonavir indinavir (without ritonavir) lopinavir/ritonavir ↓ atazanavir ↓ atazanavir ↔ etravirine ↓ atazanavir ↓ cobicistat ↓ etravirine ↓ cobicistat darunavir: effect unknown ↑ amprenavir ↑ amprenavir ↓ indinavir ↓ etravirine Co-administration of etravirine tablets and atazanavir without low- dose ritonavir is not recommended. Concomitant use of etravirine tablets with atazanavir/ritonavir decreased atazanavir Cmin but it is not considered clinically relevant. The mean systemic exposure (AUC) of etravirine after co-administration of etravirine tablets with atazanavir/ritonavir in HIV-infected subjects was similar to the mean systemic exposure of etravirine observed in the Phase 3 trials after co-administration of etravirine tablets and darunavir/ritonavir (as part of the background regimen). Etravirine tablets and atazanavir/ritonavir can be co-administered without dose adjustments. Co-administration of etravirine tablets with atazanavir/cobicistat is not recommended because it may result in loss of therapeutic effect and development of resistance to atazanavir. The mean systemic exposure (AUC) of etravirine was reduced when etravirine tablets was co-administered with darunavir/ritonavir. Because all subjects in the Phase 3 trials received darunavir/ritonavir as part of the background regimen and Etravirine exposures from these trials were determined to be safe and effective, etravirine tablets and darunavir/ritonavir can be co-administered without dose adjustments. Co-administration of etravirine tablets with darunavir/cobicistat is not recommended because it may result in loss of therapeutic effect and development of resistance to darunavir. Concomitant use of etravirine tablets with fosamprenavir without low-dose ritonavir may cause a significant alteration in the plasma concentration of amprenavir. Co-administration of etravirine tablets and fosamprenavir without low-dose ritonavir is not recommended. Due to a significant increase in the systemic exposure of amprenavir, the appropriate doses of the combination of etravirine tablets and fosamprenavir /ritonavir have not been established. Co- administration of etravirine tablets and fosamprenavir/ritonavir is not recommended. Concomitant use of etravirine tablets with indinavir without low-dose ritonavir may cause a significant alteration in the plasma concentration of indinavir. Co-administration of etravirine tablets and indinavir without low- dose ritonavir is not recommended. The mean systemic exposure (AUC) of Etravirine was reduced after co-administration of etravirine tablets with lopinavir/ritonavir (tablet). Because the reduction in the mean systemic exposures of etravirine in the presence of lopinavir/ritonavir is similar to the reduction in mean systemic exposures of etravirine in the presence of darunavir/ritonavir, etravirine tablets and lopinavir/ritonavir can be co-administered without dose adjustments. nelfinavir (without ritonavir) ritonavir saquinavir/ritonavir tipranavir/ritonavir ↑ nelfinavir ↓ etravirine ↓ etravirine ↓ etravirine Concomitant use of etravirine tablets with nelfinavir without low- dose ritonavir may cause a significant alteration in the plasma concentration of nelfinavir. Co- administration of etravirine tablets and nelfinavir without low- dose ritonavir is not recommended. Concomitant use of etravirine tablets with ritonavir 600 mg twice daily may cause a significant decrease in the plasma concentration of Etravirine and loss of therapeutic effect of etravirine tablets. Co-administration of etravirine tablets and ritonavir 600 mg twice daily is not recommended. The mean systemic exposure (AUC) of etravirine was reduced when etravirine tablets were co-administered with saquinavir/ ritonavir. Because the reduction in the mean systemic exposures of etravirine in the presence of saquinavir/ritonavir is similar to the reduction in mean systemic exposures of etravirine in the presence of darunavir/ritonavir, etravirine tablets and saquinavir/ritonavir can be co-administered without dose adjustments. Concomitant use of etravirine tablets with tipranavir/ritonavir may cause a significant decrease in the plasma concentrations of etravirine and loss of therapeutic effect of etravirine tablets. Co-administration of etravirine tablets and tipranavir/ritonavir is not recommended.

Adverse reactions

ADVERSE REACTIONS The following adverse reactions are described in greater detail in other sections: Severe skin and hypersensitivity reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] . Immune reconstitution syndrome [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ] . The most common adverse drug reactions of moderate to severe intensity (at least 2%) which occurred at a higher rate than placebo in adults are rash and peripheral neuropathy. ( 6.1 ) The most common adverse drug reactions in at least 2% of pediatric patients are rash and diarrhea. ( 6.1 ) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Carnegie Pharmaceuticals, LLC at 1-732-783-7010 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch. 6.1 Clinical Trial 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 practice. Clinical Trials Experience in Adults The safety assessment is based on all data from 1203 subjects in the Phase 3 placebo-controlled trials, TMC125-C206 and TMC125-C216, conducted in antiretroviral treatment-experienced HIV-1-infected adult subjects, 599 of whom received etravirine tablets (200 mg twice daily). In these pooled trials, the median exposure for subjects in the etravirine tablets arm and placebo arm was 52.3 and 51.0 weeks, respectively. Discontinuations due to adverse drug reactions (ADRs) were 5.2% in the etravirine tablets arm and 2.6% in the placebo arm. The most frequently reported ADR at least Grade 2 in severity was rash (10.0%). Stevens-Johnson syndrome, drug hypersensitivity reaction and erythema multiforme were reported in less than 0.1% of subjects during clinical development with etravirine tablets [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] . A total of 2.2% of HIV-1-infected subjects in Phase 3 trials receiving etravirine tablets discontinued due to rash. In general, in clinical trials, rash was mild to moderate, occurred primarily in the second week of therapy, and was infrequent after Week 4. Rash generally resolved within 1 to 2 weeks on continued therapy. The incidence of rash was higher in women compared to men in the etravirine tablets arm in the Phase 3 trials (rash ≥ Grade 2 was reported in 9/60 [15.0%] women versus 51/539 [9.5%] men; discontinuations due to rash were reported in 3/60 [5.0%] women versus 10/539 [1.9%] men) [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] . Patients with a history of NNRTI-related rash did not appear to be at increased risk for the development of etravirine tablets-related rash compared to patients without a history of NNRTI- related rash. Common Adverse Reactions Clinical ADRs of moderate intensity or greater (greater than or equal to Grade 2) and reported in at least 2% of subjects treated with etravirine tablets and occurring at a higher rate compared to placebo (excess of 1%) are presented in Table 2. Laboratory abnormalities considered ADRs are included in Table 3.
