Paltusotine Interactions

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary The available data with PALSONIFY use in pregnant women are insufficient to identify a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or other adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. In animal reproduction studies, no malformations were observed with oral administration of paltusotine to pregnant rats and rabbits during organogenesis at exposures 11 and 3 times the human exposure at the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) of 60 mg once daily, respectively (see Data ) . 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 background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively. Data Animal Data In an embryo-fetal development study in pregnant rats, paltusotine was administered orally at 25, 75, and 500 mg/kg/day during the period of organogenesis from gestation Day 7 to 17. The NOAEL for maternal and embryo-fetal developmental toxicity was 500 mg/kg/day, as no paltusotine-related effects were observed on any ovarian, uterine or litter parameters (approximately 11 times the MRHD based on AUC). In an embryo-fetal development study in pregnant rabbits, paltusotine was administered orally at 10, 25, and 75 mg/kg/day during the period of organogenesis from gestation Day 7 to 19. Maternal findings included an increased incidence of spontaneous abortions at 75 mg/kg/day, with decreased body weight gain, body weights, and food consumption. No fetal abnormalities were observed at any dose. Lower fetal body weight was noted at 75 mg/kg/day. The NOAEL for maternal and embryo-fetal developmental toxicity was 25 mg/kg/day (approximately 3 times the MRHD based on AUC). In a pre- and postnatal development study, pregnant rats were given paltusotine orally at the doses of 25, 75, and 500 mg/kg/day from
