INDICATIONS AND USAGE ORLADEYO ® is indicated for prophylaxis to prevent attacks of hereditary angioedema (HAE) in adults and pediatric patients 2 years of age and older. ORLADEYO is a plasma kallikrein inhibitor indicated for prophylaxis to prevent attacks of hereditary angioedema (HAE) in adults and pediatric patients 2 years and older. ( 1 ) Limitations of Use : ORLADEYO should not be used for treatment of acute HAE attacks. ( 1 ) Limitations of Use : The safety and effectiveness of ORLADEYO for the treatment of acute HAE attacks have not been established. ORLADEYO should not be used for treatment of acute HAE attacks. Additional doses or doses of ORLADEYO higher than the prescribed once-daily dose are not recommended due to the potential for QTc interval prolongation [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] .

Table 1: Recommended Dosage of ORLADEYO Oral Pellets by Body Weight in Pediatric Patients 2 Years to Less than 12 Years of Age Body Weight (kg) Recommended Dosage of ORLADEYO Oral Pellets 12 kg to less than 24 kg 72 mg (one packet) once daily 24 kg to less than 32 kg 96 mg (one packet) once daily 32 kg to less than 40 kg 108 mg (one packet) once daily 40 kg or greater 132 mg (one packet) once daily 2.3 Recommended Dosage in Patients with Hepatic Impairment Mild Hepatic Impairment (Child-Pugh Class A) Adult and Pediatric Patients 2 Years of Age and Older No dosage modification of ORLADEYO is recommended [see Use in Specific Populations (8.7) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] . Moderate or Severe Hepatic Impairment (Child-Pugh Class B or C) Adult and Pediatric Patients 12 Years of Age and Older Recommended dosage of ORLADEYO capsules is 110 mg taken orally once daily with food [see Use in Specific Populations (8.7) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] . Pediatric Patients 2 Years to Less than 12 Years of Age Avoid use of ORLADEYO [see Use in Specific Populations (8.7) ] . 2.4 Dosage Modification in Patients with Persistent GI Adverse Reactions Gastrointestinal (GI) reactions may occur in patients receiving ORLADEYO [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] . For adults and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older, if GI adverse reactions persist, consider a lower ORLADEYO capsules dosage of 110 mg once daily with food. For pediatric patients 2 to less than 12 years of age with persistent GI adverse reactions, consider the risks and benefits of continuing treatment with ORLADEYO. 2.5 Administration Instructions for Oral Pellets Do not chew or crush ORLADEYO oral pellets because this will affect the film coating (taste masking) and result in bitter taste. Administer one packet of oral pellets as follows: Pour the entire contents of one packet directly into the mouth and swallow immediately with non-acidic liquid (e.g., water or milk). OR Sprinkle the entire contents of one packet over approximately one tablespoon (15 mL) of soft, non-acidic food and consume immediately. Food should be at or below room temperature. Examples of soft, non-acidic foods include pudding, mashed potatoes, creamed corn, pureed peas, pureed bananas, and pureed carrots. Acidic foods such as yogurt and applesauce should not be used because they can dissolve the film coating (taste masking) and result in a bitter taste . The film coating (taste masking) remains intact for 10 minutes. If the pellets are not consumed within 10 minutes of sprinkling over food, they should be discarded.

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS An increase in QTc interval prolongation can occur at dosages higher than the recommended dosage. Additional doses or doses of ORLADEYO higher than the recommended dosage are not recommended. ( 5.1 ) 5.1 Risk of QTc Interval Prolongation with Higher-Than-Recommended Dosages ORLADEYO should not be used for treatment of acute attacks of HAE. Additional doses or doses of ORLADEYO higher than the recommended dosage are not recommended. An increase in QTc interval was observed in adults at dosages higher than 150 mg once daily and was concentration dependent [see Dosage and Administration (2) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.2) ] .

CONTRAINDICATIONS None. None. ( 4 )

Mechanism of Action Berotralstat is a plasma kallikrein inhibitor that binds to plasma kallikrein and inhibits its proteolytic activity. Plasma kallikrein is a protease that cleaves high-molecular-weight kininogen (HMWK) to generate cleaved HMWK (cHMWK) and bradykinin, a potent vasodilator that increases vascular permeability resulting in swelling and pain associated with HAE. In patients with HAE due to C1-inhibitor (C1-INH) deficiency or dysfunction, normal regulation of plasma kallikrein activity is not present, which leads to uncontrolled increases in plasma kallikrein activity and results in angioedema attacks. Berotralstat decreases plasma kallikrein activity to control excess bradykinin generation in patients with HAE.
