Drug interactions

UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGT) Inducers and Strong CYP3A Inducers Acoramidis is metabolized by UGT enzyme-mediated glucuronidation. Concomitant use of UGT inducers can potentially decrease acoramidis exposure. While acoramidis is not metabolized by CYP3A, strong CYP3A inducers can also induce UGT enzymes. Avoid concomitant use of ATTRUBY with UGT inducers and strong CYP3A inducers. Sensitive Cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) substrates Acoramidis inhibits CYP2C9 and may result in an increase in CYP2C9 substrate concentrations when these drugs are co administered. Consider more frequent monitoring of patients for evidence of increased exposure (for example, signs of exposure related toxicity) when ATTRUBY is co administered with sensitive CYP2C9 substrates.

Adverse reactions

6.1 Clinical Trials 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. The safety data reflect the exposure of 421 participants with ATTR-CM to ATTRUBY 712 mg (administered as two 356 mg tablets) administered orally twice daily in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of 30 months fixed treatment duration. The median duration of exposure to ATTRUBY in the safety population was 29 months. There was a higher frequency of gastrointestinal (GI) adverse reactions such as diarrhea 11.6% versus 7.6% and upper abdominal pain 5.5% versus 1.4% in the ATTRUBY versus placebo group, respectively. The majority of these GI adverse reactions were categorized as mild and resolved without drug discontinuation. A similar proportion of ATTRUBY-treated and placebo-treated participants discontinued study drug because of an adverse event (9.3% and 8.5%, respectively). Laboratory Tests Increase in Serum Creatinine and Decrease in eGFR Initiation of ATTRUBY causes an increase in serum creatinine and decrease in eGFR which generally occurs within 4 weeks of starting therapy and stabilizes. In a trial of adults with ATTR-CM, a mean increase in serum creatinine of 0.2 and 0.0 mg/dL and a mean decrease in eGFR of 8.2 and 0.7 mL/min/1.73 m 2 was observed in the ATTRUBY and placebo groups, respectively, at Day 28. The changes in serum creatinine and eGFR were reversible after treatment discontinuation.

Overdosage

There is no clinical experience with overdose. In case of suspected overdose, treatment should be symptomatic and supportive.

Use in specific populations

8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Available data with acoramidis use in pregnant women are insufficient to establish a drug associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage or other adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. In animal reproductive studies in rats and rabbits, no embryofetal abnormalities were observed at exposures up to 34 times and 13 times the clinical exposure at the maximum recommended human dose, 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 defects, loss, or 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. Report pregnancies to the BridgeBio reporting line at 1-844-550-2246. Data Animal Data In pregnant rats, oral administration of acoramidis (0, 50, 350, and 1,000 mg/kg/day) throughout organogenesis did not result in any adverse effects on embryofetal development at up to 1,000 mg/kg/day, approximately 34 times the clinical exposure at the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) based on AUC. In pregnant rabbits, oral administration of acoramidis (0, 25, 75, and 200 mg/kg/day) throughout organogenesis resulted in increased pre-implantation loss at 200 mg/kg/day, a dose that caused maternal toxicity (26% reduced body weight gain). No embryofetal abnormalities were observed at 200 mg/kg/day, approximately 13 times the clinical exposure at the MRHD based on AUC. In a pre- and postnatal developmental toxicity study, pregnant rats received oral administration of acoramidis at doses of 0, 50, 350, or 1,000 mg/kg/day throughout pregnancy and lactation (Gestation Day 6 to Lactation Day 20). Maternal death, body weight reduction, and decreased number of females with live born pups (due to increase in resorbed litters) were observed at 1,000 mg/kg/day, approximately 43 times the clinical exposure at the MRHD based on AUC. Decreased body weight gain from the neonatal period to weaning and learning deficits were observed in the offspring of dams given 1,000 mg/kg/day. No adverse effects on pre- and postnatal development were observed at 350 mg/kg/day, approximately 18 times the clinical exposure at the MRHD based on AUC.

8.2 Lactation Risk Summary There are no available data on the presence of acoramidis in either human or animal milk or the effects of the drug on the breastfed infant or maternal milk production. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother's clinical need for ATTRUBY and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed child from ATTRUBY or from the underlying maternal condition.

8.4 Pediatric Use The safety and effectiveness of ATTRUBY have not been established in pediatric patients.

8.5 Geriatric Use No dosage adjustment is required for elderly patients (≥65 years) [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] . Of the total number of participants randomized in the clinical study (n=632), 97% were 65 years and over, with a median age of 78 years.

Structural Formula

Clinical pharmacology

12.1 Mechanism of Action Acoramidis is a selective stabilizer of transthyretin (TTR). Acoramidis binds TTR at thyroxine binding sites and slows dissociation of the TTR tetramer into its constituent monomers, the rate-limiting step in amyloidogenesis.

12.2 Pharmacodynamics TTR Stabilization Changes in serum TTR level or in vitro TTR stabilization assays were utilized as pharmacodynamic markers of TTR stabilization. Increases in mean serum TTR levels were observed by Day 28 in ATTR-CM patients treated with ATTRUBY. Near-complete in vitro TTR stabilization was observed as early as Day 28 and through completion of a 30-month study of patients with ATTR-CM (wild-type and variant) treated with the recommended dosage [see Clinical Studies ( 14 )] . Free thyroxine ATTRUBY may decrease serum concentrations of free thyroxine without an accompanying change in thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH). A reduction in free thyroxine values has been observed with transthyretin stabilizers probably due to reduced thyroxine binding to or displacement from transthyretin (TTR). NT-proBNP and Troponin I In a clinical study of ATTRUBY in patients with ATTR-CM, at Month 30, the increase in N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide [NT-proBNP] and troponin I was lower with ATTRUBY versus placebo. The increase in NT-proBNP at Month 30 for ATTRUBY was about half that of placebo [see Clinical Studies ( 14 )] . Cardiac Electrophysiology At approximately 1.2 times the steady state peak plasma concentrations (C max ) at the recommended dose, ATTRUBY does not prolong the QTc interval to any clinically relevant extent.

12.3 Pharmacokinetics The systemic exposures (C max and AUC) increase in a less than dose proportional manner following single and multiple doses of acoramidis. Over the dose range from 89 mg twice daily to 712 mg twice daily, AUC increases only 130%. Acoramidis steady state is achieved by 4 days with approximately 1.3-fold accumulation at the approved recommended dosage. At steady state, a dose of 712 mg twice daily results in a mean (SD) C max of 13700 (6090) ng/mL and AUC 0-12h of 47200 (10300) ng.h/mL. Absorption The time to C max of acoramidis (T max ) is approximately 1 hour following oral administration. Effect of Food No clinically significant differences in acoramidis pharmacokinetics were observed following administration of a high-fat meal (800-1000 total calories, ≥ 50% fat). Distribution The apparent steady-state volume of distribution for acoramidis is 654 liters. Acoramidis is 96% bound to human plasma proteins in vitro. Acoramidis primarily binds to TTR. Elimination The effective half-life of acoramidis is approximately 6 hours with a steady state apparent clearance of 16 L/hr. Metabolism Acoramidis is primarily metabolized by glucuronidation via UGT1A9, UGT1A1 and UGT2B7. Acoramidis-β-D-glucuronide (Acoramidis-AG) is the predominant metabolite of acoramidis (8% of total circulating drug related moieties). Acoramidis-AG is approximately 1/3 as pharmacologically active compared with acoramidis, has a low potential for covalent binding, and does not contribute to pharmacological activity. Excretion After a single oral dose of radiolabeled acoramidis 712 mg to healthy adult subjects, approximately 32% of the dose radioactivity was recovered in feces (15% unchanged), and approximately 68% was recovered in urine (<10% unchanged). Specific Populations No clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of acoramidis were observed based on age, race/ethnicity (including Japanese and non-Japanese), sex, or renal impairment. The effect of hepatic impairment (Child Pugh A, B, or C) on acoramidis pharmacokinetics is unknown. Drug Interaction Studies Clinical Studies Following the administration of acoramidis (712 mg, BID) in a clinical study in healthy adult volunteers, there was not a clinically significant increase in exposure to the organic anion transporter-1 (OAT1) substrate (adefovir) and to OAT3 substrate (oseltamivir carboxylate). Concomitant diuretic use in patients does not affect steady-state plasma acoramidis concentrations. In Vitro Studies Cytochrome P450 Enzymes: Acoramidis is a time-dependent inhibitor of CYP2C9, but does not inhibit CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, or CYP3A4/5. Acoramidis does not induce CYP1A2, CYP2B6, or CYP3A4. UDP-Glucuronosyl Transferase (UGT): Acoramidis is a substrate of multiple UGT enzymes including UGT1A9, UGT1A1, and UGT2B7. Transporter Systems: Acoramidis is a substrate for OAT1 and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP). Acoramidis inhibits OAT1 and OAT3, but does not inhibit MATE1, OCT1, OCT2, OATP1B1, OATP1B3, MATE2-K, BCRP, P-gp, or BSEP.

Carcinogenesis, mutagenesis, fertility

, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility Carcinogenesis There was no evidence of increased incidence of neoplasia in a 2-year carcinogenicity study in male rats dosed up to 50 mg/kg and in female rats dosed up to 350 mg/kg, which provided exposures approximately equivalent to and 11 times the AUC at the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD), respectively. There was no evidence of an increased incidence of neoplasia in transgenic (Tg.rasH2) mice following repeated daily administration for 26 weeks at daily doses up to 300 mg/kg. Mutagenesis There was no evidence of mutagenicity or clastogenicity for acoramidis in an Ames assay or in vivo rat micronucleus and alkaline comet assay. Impairment of Fertility In a male and female fertility study, rats were orally administered acoramidis at 0, 50, 350, and 1,000 mg/kg/day. Male rats were given acoramidis prior to and during cohabitation for a total of up to 52 days. Female rats were given acoramidis prior to and during cohabitation until implantation of the embryo (Gestational Day 7) for a total of up to 34 days. There were no effects on fertility, reproductive performance, or mating behavior in male or female rats at doses up to 1,000 mg/kg/day, approximately 38-times the AUC at the MRHD.
