Rilzabrutinib Interactions

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Based on animal data, WAYRILZ may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. In animal reproduction studies, oral administration of rilzabrutinib to pregnant rats and rabbits during organogenesis at exposures 4- to 10-times the human exposure (based on AUC) at the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) of 400 mg twice daily did not cause adverse developmental effects. However, adverse visceral and skeletal findings occurred in rat fetuses at a maternally toxic dose at exposures 22-times the human exposure (based on AUC) at the MRHD ( see Data ). There are no available clinical data on the use of WAYRILZ during pregnancy to evaluate for a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or other adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus. The background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defects, loss, and 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 Animal Data Rilzabrutinib given to pregnant rats by oral gavage at 50, 150 or 300 mg/kg/day during the period of organogenesis (gestation day 7 to 17) did not cause adverse effects on embryo-fetal development at exposures approximately 10-times the clinical exposure at the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD), based on AUC. Increased incidence of post-implantation loss (25%), delayed ossification associated with a markedly lower (24%) mean fetal weight, and increased skeletal (scoliosis) and visceral malformations (abnormalities of major vessels, urogenital tract, and kidney) occurred in a preliminary study in rats at a maternally toxic dose of 500 mg/kg/day that resulted in exposures 22-times the clinical exposure at the MRHD, based on AUC.
