Contraindications
4 CONTRAINDICATIONS YORVIPATH is contraindicated in patients with severe hypersensitivity to palopegteriparatide or to any of its excipients. Hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, angioedema, and urticaria, have been observed with parathyroid hormone (PTH) analogs. Severe hypersensitivity to palopegteriparatide or any components of YORVIPATH. ( 4 )
Pregnancy & Breastfeeding
8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Available data from reports of pregnancies in the clinical trials from drug development are insufficient to identify a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or other adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. There are disease-associated risks to the mother and fetus related to hypocalcemia in pregnancy (see Clinical Considerations ). In animal reproduction studies, administration of palopegteriparatide to pregnant rats and rabbits during the period of organogenesis resulted in no significant adverse effects up to doses 16- and 13-fold, respectively, the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD), based on PTH(1-34) and active metabolite PTH(1-33) exposure by area under the curve (AUC) (see Data ). The background risk of birth defects and miscarriages 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 miscarriages in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively. If YORVIPATH is administered during pregnancy, or if a patient becomes pregnant while receiving YORVIPATH, healthcare providers should report YORVIPATH exposure by calling1-877-229-2184. Clinical Considerations Disease-Associated Maternal and Embryo/Fetal Risk Maternal hypocalcemia can result in an increased rate of spontaneous abortion, premature and dysfunctional labor, and possibly preeclampsia. Infants born to mothers with hypocalcemia can have associated fetal and neonatal hyperparathyroidism, which may cause fetal and neonatal skeletal demineralization, subperiosteal bone resorption, osteitis fibrosa cystica, and neonatal seizures. Infants born to mothers with hypocalcemia should be monitored for signs of hypocalcemia or hypercalcemia, including neuromuscular irritability (e.g., myotonic jerks, seizures), apnea, cyanosis, and cardiac arrhythmias.

PALOPEGTERIPARATIDE increases serum calcium, which may predispose patients to digitalis toxicity if hypercalcemia develops. Digoxin efficacy may be reduced if hypocalcemia is present. Serum calcium and digoxin levels should be monitored.
