抗艾滋病新型复方制剂Evotaz(ATAZANAVIR SULFATE; COBICISTAT)获FDA批准上市
b See Drug Interactions, Table 5 (7) for sildenafil when administered for erectile dysfunction. 5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS 5.1 Cardiac Conduction Abnormalities Atazanavir prolongs the PR interval of the electrocardiogram in some patients. In healthy volunteers and in patients, abnormalities in atrioventricular (AV) conduction were asymptomatic and generally limited to first-degree AV block. There have been reports of second-degree AV block and other conduction abnormalities [see Adverse Reactions (6.2) and Overdosage (10)]. In clinical trials of atazanavir that included electrocardiograms, asymptomatic first-degree AV block was observed in 6% of atazanavir-treated patients (n=920) and 5% of patients (n=118) treated with atazanavir coadministered with ritonavir. Because of limited clinical experience in patients with preexisting conduction system disease (e.g., marked first-degree AV block or second- or third-degree AV block), consider ECG monitoring in these patients. [See Clinical Pharmacology (12.2).] 5.2 Rash Cases of Stevens-Johnson syndrome, erythema multiforme, and toxic skin eruptions, including drug rash, eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) syndrome, have been reported in patients receiving atazanavir. [See Contraindications (4) and Adverse Reactions (6.1).] EVOTAZ should be discontinued if severe rash develops. Mild-to-moderate maculopapular skin eruptions have also been reported in atazanavir clinical trials. These reactions had a median time to onset of 7.3 weeks and median duration of 1.4 weeks and generally did not result in treatment discontinuation. 5.3 Effects on Serum Creatinine Cobicistat decreases estimated creatinine clearance due to inhibition of tubular secretion of creatinine without affecting actual renal glomerular function. This effect should be considered when interpreting changes in estimated creatinine clearance in patients initiating EVOTAZ, particularly in patients with medical conditions or receiving drugs needing monitoring with estimated creatinine clearance. Prior to initiating therapy with EVOTAZ, assess estimated creatinine clearance [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)]. Dosage recommendations are not available for drugs that require dosage adjustments in cobicistat-treated patients with renal impairment [see Adverse Reactions (6.1), Drug Interactions (7.3), and Clinical Pharmacology (12.2)]. Consider alternative medications that do not require dosage adjustments in patients with renal impairment. Although cobicistat may cause modest increases in serum creatinine and modest declines in estimated creatinine clearance without affecting renal glomerular function, patients who experience a confirmed increase in serum creatinine of greater than 0.4 mg/dL from baseline should be closely monitored for renal safety. 5.4 New Onset or Worsening Renal Impairment When Used with Tenofovir DF Renal impairment, including cases of acute renal failure and Fanconi syndrome, has been reported when cobicistat was used in an antiretroviral regimen that contained tenofovir DF. Therefore, coadministration of EVOTAZ and tenofovir DF is not recommended in patients who have an estimated creatinine clearance below 70 mL/min [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)]. • When EVOTAZ is used with tenofovir DF, document urine glucose and urine protein at baseline and perform routine monitoring of estimated creatinine clearance, urine glucose, and urine protein during treatment. • Measure serum phosphorus in patients at risk for renal impairment. • Coadministration of EVOTAZ and tenofovir DF in combination with concomitant or recent use of a nephrotoxic agent is not recommended. In the clinical trials over 48 weeks (N=771), six (1.5%) subjects treated with atazanavir coadministered with cobicistat and tenofovir DF discontinued study drug due to a renal adverse event, five of which had laboratory findings consistent with proximal renal tubulopathy. None of the five subjects had renal impairment at baseline (e.g., estimated creatinine clearance less than 70 mL/min). The laboratory findings in these five subjects with evidence of proximal tubulopathy improved but did not completely resolve in all subjects upon discontinuation of cobicistat coadministered with atazanavir and tenofovir DF. Renal replacement therapy was not required in any subject. 5.5 Nephrolithiasis and Cholelithiasis Cases of nephrolithiasis and/or cholelithiasis have been reported during postmarketing surveillance in HIV-infected patients receiving atazanavir therapy. Some patients required hospitalization for additional management and some had complications. Because these events were reported voluntarily during clinical practice, estimates of frequency cannot be made. If signs or symptoms of nephrolithiasis and/or cholelithiasis occur, temporary interruption or discontinuation of therapy may be considered. [See Adverse Reactions (6.1, 6.2).] 5.6 Hepatotoxicity Patients with underlying hepatitis B or C viral infections or marked elevations in transaminases may be at increased risk for developing further transaminase elevations or hepatic decompensation. In these patients, hepatic laboratory testing should be conducted prior to initiating therapy with EVOTAZ and during treatment. [See Dosage and Administration (2.4) and Use in Specific Populations (8.7).] 5.7 Risk of Serious Adverse Reactions or Loss of Virologic Response Due to Drug Interactions Initiation of EVOTAZ, a CYP3A inhibitor, in patients receiving medications metabolized by CYP3A or initiation of medications metabolized by CYP3A in patients already receiving EVOTAZ, may increase plasma concentrations of medications metabolized by CYP3A. Initiation of medications that inhibit or induce CYP3A may increase or decrease concentrations of EVOTAZ, respectively. These interactions may lead to: • clinically significant adverse reactions, potentially leading to severe, life threatening, or fatal events from greater exposures of concomitant medications. • clinically significant adverse reactions from greater exposures of EVOTAZ. • loss of therapeutic effect of EVOTAZ and possible development of resistance. See Table 5 for steps to prevent or manage these possible and known significant drug interactions, including dosing recommendations [see Drug Interactions (7)]. Consider the potential for drug interactions prior to and during EVOTAZ therapy; review concomitant medications during EVOTAZ therapy; and monitor for the adverse reactions associated with the concomitant medications [see Contraindications (4) and Drug Interactions (7)]. 5.8 Antiretrovirals that are Not Recommended EVOTAZ is not recommended in combination with other antiretroviral drugs that require CYP3A inhibition to achieve adequate exposures (e.g., other HIV protease inhibitors or elvitegravir) because dosing recommendations for such combinations have not been established and coadministration may result in decreased plasma concentrations of the antiretroviral agents, leading to loss of therapeutic effect and development of resistance. EVOTAZ is not recommended in combination with products containing the individual components of EVOTAZ (atazanavir or cobicistat). EVOTAZ is not recommended in combination with ritonavir or products containing ritonavir due to similar effects of cobicistat and ritonavir on CYP3A. See Drug Interactions (7) for additional recommendations on use with other antiretroviral agents. 5.9 Hyperbilirubinemia Most patients taking atazanavir experience asymptomatic elevations in indirect (unconjugated) bilirubin related to inhibition of UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT). This hyperbilirubinemia is reversible upon discontinuation of atazanavir. Hepatic transaminase elevations that occur with hyperbilirubinemia should be evaluated for alternative etiologies. No long-term safety data are available for patients experiencing persistent elevations in total bilirubin greater than 5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN). Alternative antiretroviral therapy to EVOTAZ may be considered if jaundice or scleral icterus associated with bilirubin elevations presents cosmetic concerns for patients. [See Adverse Reactions (6.2).] 5.10 Immune Reconstitution Syndrome Immune reconstitution syndrome has been reported in patients treated with combination antiretroviral therapy, including atazanavir, a component of EVOTAZ. During the initial phase of combination antiretroviral treatment, patients whose immune system responds may develop an inflammatory response to indolent or residual opportunistic infections (such as Mycobacterium avium infection, cytomegalovirus, Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia, or tuberculosis), which may necessitate further evaluation and treatment. Autoimmune disorders (such as Graves’ disease, polymyositis, and Guillain-Barré syndrome) have also been reported to occur in the setting of immune reconstitution; however, the time to onset is more variable, and can occur many months after initiation of treatment. 5.11 Diabetes Mellitus/Hyperglycemia New-onset diabetes mellitus, exacerbation of preexisting diabetes mellitus, and hyperglycemia have been reported during postmarketing surveillance in HIV-infected patients receiving protease inhibitor therapy. Some patients required either initiation or dose adjustments of insulin or oral hypoglycemic agents for treatment of these events. In some cases, diabetic ketoacidosis has occurred. In those patients who discontinued protease inhibitor therapy, hyperglycemia persisted in some cases. Because these events have been reported voluntarily during clinical practice, estimates of frequency cannot be made and a causal relationship between protease inhibitor therapy and these events has not been established. 5.12 Fat Redistribution Redistribution/accumulation of body fat including central obesity, dorsocervical fat enlargement (buffalo hump), peripheral wasting, facial wasting, breast enlargement, and “cushingoid appearance” have been observed in patients receiving antiretroviral therapy. The mechanism and long-term consequences of these events are currently unknown. A causal relationship has not been established. 5.13 Hemophilia There have been reports of increased bleeding, including spontaneous skin hematomas and hemarthrosis, in patients with hemophilia type A and B treated with protease inhibitors. In some patients additional factor VIII was given. In more than half of the reported cases, treatment with protease inhibitors was continued or reintroduced. A causal relationship between protease inhibitor therapy and these events has not been established. 6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following adverse reactions are discussed in greater detail in other sections of the labeling: • cardiac conduction abnormalities [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] • rash [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] • effects on serum creatinine [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ] • new onset or worsening renal impairment when used with tenofovir DF [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4) ] • nephrolithiasis and cholelithiasis [see Warnings and Precautions (5.5)] • hepatotoxicity [see Warnings and Precautions (5.6)] • hyperbilirubinemia [see Warnings and Precautions (5.9)] For additional safety information about atazanavir and cobicistat consult the full prescribing information for these individual products. 6.1 Clinical Trial Experience in Adults 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 of atazanavir and cobicistat coadministered as single agents has been established from a Phase 2 trial, Study 105, and a Phase 3 trial, Study 114. In the pooled analysis, 771 HIV-1 infected, antiretroviral treatment-naive adults received for at least 48 weeks: • atazanavir coadministered with cobicistat and emtricitabine/tenofovir DF (N=394) or • atazanavir coadministered with ritonavir and emtricitabine/tenofovir DF (N=377). The most common adverse reactions (all Grades) and reported in >10% of subjects in the atazanavir coadministered with cobicistat group were jaundice (13%), ocular icterus (15%), and nausea (12%); the most common adverse reactions in the atazanavir coadministered with ritonavir group were jaundice (11%), ocular icterus (17%), nausea (11%), and diarrhea (11%). The proportion of subjects who discontinued study treatment due to adverse events, regardless of severity, was 7% in both the atazanavir coadministered with cobicistat and atazanavir coadministered with ritonavir groups. Table 2 lists the frequency of adverse reactions (Grades 2-4) occurring in at least 2% of subjects in the atazanavir coadministered with cobicistat group in pooled Studies 105 and 114. Table 2: Selected Adverse Reactionsa (Grades 2-4) Reported in ≥2% of HIV-1 Infected Treatment-Naive Adults in the Atazanavir Coadministered with Cobicistat Group in Studies 105 and 114 (Week 48 pooled analysis)
b Rash events include dermatitis allergic, drug hypersensitivity, pruritus generalized, eosinophilic pustular folliculitis, rash, rash generalized, rash macular, rash maculopapular, rash morbilliform, rash papular, and urticaria. Nephrolithiasis: Nephrolithiasis has previously been identified in patients receiving atazanavir [see Warnings and Precautions (5.5)]. In the pooled analysis of Studies 105 and 114 through 48 weeks, 8 subjects (2%) receiving atazanavir coadministered with cobicistat developed nephrolithiasis compared with no subjects in the atazanavir coadministered with ritonavir group. Median time to onset of nephrolithiasis in the atazanavir coadministered with cobicistat group was 24 weeks. Causality in these cases could not be determined with certainty, but the majority of renal stone events were not serious and no subject discontinued study drug. Less Common Adverse Reactions Selected adverse reactions of at least moderate severity (≥ Grade 2) occurring in less than 2% of subjects receiving atazanavir coadministered with cobicistat and emtricitabine/tenofovir DF are listed below. These events have been included because of investigator’s assessment of potential causal relationship and were considered serious or have been reported in more than one subject treated with atazanavir coadministered with cobicistat, and reported with greater frequency compared with the atazanavir coadministered with ritonavir group. Gastrointestinal Disorders: diarrhea, vomiting, upper abdominal pain General Disorders and Administration Site Conditions: fatigue Musculoskeletal and Connective Tissue Disorders: rhabdomyolysis Nervous System Disorders: headache Psychiatric Disorders: depression, abnormal dreams, insomnia Renal and Urinary Disorders: nephropathy, Fanconi syndrome Laboratory Abnormalities The frequency of laboratory abnormalities (Grades 3-4) occurring in at least 2% of subjects in the atazanavir coadministered with cobicistat group in Studies 105 and 114 is presented in Table 3. Table 3: Laboratory Abnormalities (Grades 3-4) Reported in ≥2% of HIV-1 Infected Treatment-Naive Adults in the Atazanavir Coadministered with Cobicistat Group in Studies 105 and 114 (Week 48 pooled analysis)
Increase in Serum Creatinine: Cobicistat, a component of EVOTAZ, has been shown to increase serum creatinine and decrease estimated creatinine clearance due to inhibition of tubular secretion of creatinine without affecting actual renal glomerular function [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.2)]. In Studies 105 and 114, increases in serum creatinine and decreases in estimated creatinine clearance occurred early in treatment in the atazanavir coadministered with cobicistat group after which they stabilized. The mean (± SD) change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) by Cockcroft-Gault method after 48 weeks of treatment was −13.4 ± 15.2 mL/min in the atazanavir coadministered with cobicistat group and −9.1 ± 14.7 mL/min in the atazanavir coadministered with ritonavir group. Serum Lipids Changes from baseline in total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, and triglycerides are presented in Table 4. In both groups, mean values for serum lipids remained within the normal range for each laboratory test. The clinical significance of these changes is unknown. Table 4: Lipid Values, Mean Change from Baseline, Reported in HIV-1 Infected Treatment-Naive Adults Receiving Atazanavir Coadministered with Cobicistat and Emtricitabine/Tenofovir DF or Atazanavir Coadministered with Ritonavir and Emtricitabine/Tenofovir DF in Studies 105 and 114 (Week 48 pooled analysis)
6.2 Postmarketing Experience See the full prescribing information for atazanavir for postmarketing information on atazanavir. 7 DRUG INTERACTIONS See also Contraindications (4), Warnings and Precautions (5.7), and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3). 7.1 Potential for EVOTAZ to Affect Other Drugs Atazanavir is an inhibitor of CYP3A and UGT1A1 and a weak inhibitor of CYP2C8. Cobicistat is an inhibitor of CYP3A and CYP2D6. The transporters that cobicistat inhibits include P-glycoprotein (P-gp), BCRP, OATP1B1 and OATP1B3. Coadministration of EVOTAZ with drugs highly dependent on CYP3A for clearance and for which elevated plasma concentrations are associated with serious and/or life-threatening events is contraindicated [see Contraindications (4)]. Coadministration of EVOTAZ and drugs primarily metabolized by CYP3A, UGT1A1 and/or CYP2D6 or drugs that are substrates of P-gp, BCRP, OATP1B1 and/or OATP1B3 may result in increased plasma concentrations of the other drug that could increase or prolong its therapeutic effects and adverse reactions which may require dose adjustments and/or additional monitoring as shown in Table 5. Use of EVOTAZ is not recommended when coadministered with drugs highly dependent on CYP2C8 for clearance with narrow therapeutic indices (e.g., paclitaxel, repaglinide). [See Clinical Pharmacology, Table 7 (12.3).] 7.2 Potential for Other Drugs to Affect EVOTAZ Atazanavir and cobicistat are CYP3A4 substrates; therefore, drugs that induce CYP3A4 may decrease atazanavir and cobicistat plasma concentrations and reduce the therapeutic effect of EVOTAZ, leading to development of resistance to atazanavir (see Table 5). Cobicistat is also metabolized by CYP2D6 to a minor extent. Coadministration of EVOTAZ with other drugs that inhibit CYP3A4 may increase the plasma concentrations of cobicistat and atazanavir (see Table 5). Atazanavir solubility decreases as pH increases. Reduced plasma concentrations of atazanavir are expected if proton-pump inhibitors, antacids, buffered medications, or H2-receptor antagonists are administered with EVOTAZ. [See Dosage and Administration (2.1).] 7.3 Established and Other Potentially Significant Drug Interactions Drug interaction trials were not conducted for EVOTAZ. Drug interaction trials were conducted with cobicistat in combination with desipramine, digoxin, or efavirenz and with cobicistat coadministered with elvitegravir in combination with other drugs including rosuvastatin and rifabutin. Table 5 provides dosing recommendations as a result of drug interactions with the components of EVOTAZ. These recommendations are based either on observed drug interactions in studies of cobicistat, atazanavir, or atazanavir coadministered with ritonavir or predicted drug interactions based on the expected magnitude of interaction and potential for serious events or loss of therapeutic effect of EVOTAZ. Table 5: Established and Other Potentially Significant Drug Interactions: Alteration in Dose or Regimen May Be Recommended Based on Drug Interaction Studiesa or Predicted Interactions
7.4 Drugs with No Observed or Predicted Interactions with the Components of EVOTAZ Based on known metabolic profiles, clinically significant drug interactions are not expected between EVOTAZ and acetaminophen, atenolol, dapsone, fluconazole, trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole, or azithromycin. [See Clinical Pharmacology, Table 7 (12.3).] 8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS 8.1 Pregnancy Pregnancy Category B There are no adequate and well-controlled studies of EVOTAZ in pregnant women. Because animal reproduction studies are not always predictive of human response, EVOTAZ should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. Do not give EVOTAZ to treatment-experienced pregnant patients taking an H2-receptor antagonist and/or tenofovir DF during the second or third trimester. See atazanavir prescribing information for clinical trial data on use of atazanavir coadministered with ritonavir in pregnancy. Antiretroviral Pregnancy Registry: To monitor maternal-fetal outcomes of pregnant women exposed to EVOTAZ, an Antiretroviral Pregnancy Registry has been established. Physicians are encouraged to register patients by calling 1-800-258-4263. See atazanavir prescribing information for antiretroviral pregnancy registry data on atazanavir-containing regimens. Risk Summary Atazanavir coadministered with ritonavir has been evaluated in a limited number of women during pregnancy and postpartum. Available human and animal data suggest that atazanavir does not increase the risk of major birth defects overall compared to the background rate. Cases of lactic acidosis syndrome, sometimes fatal, and symptomatic hyperlactatemia have occurred in pregnant women using atazanavir in combination with nucleoside analogues. Nucleoside analogues are associated with an increased risk of lactic acidosis syndrome. Hyperbilirubinemia occurs frequently in patients who take atazanavir, including pregnant women. All infants, including neonates exposed to atazanavir in utero, should be monitored for the development of severe hyperbilirubinemia during the first few days of life. Animal Data Atazanavir: In animal reproduction studies, there was no evidence of teratogenicity in offspring born to animals at systemic drug exposure levels (AUC) 0.7 (in rabbits) to 1.2 (in rats) times those observed at the human clinical dose (300 mg/day atazanavir coadministered with 100 mg/day ritonavir). In pre- and postnatal development studies in the rat, atazanavir caused body weight loss or weight gain suppression in the animal offspring with maternal drug exposure (AUC) 1.3 times the human exposure at this clinical dose. However, maternal toxicity also occurred at this exposure level. Cobicistat: Studies in animals have shown no evidence of teratogenicity or an effect on reproductive function. In offspring from rat and rabbit dams treated with cobicistat during pregnancy, there were no toxicologically significant effects on developmental endpoints. The exposures at the embryo-fetal No Observed Adverse Effects Levels (NOAELs) in rats and rabbits were respectively 1.4 and 3.3 times higher than the exposure in humans at the recommended daily dose of 150 mg. 8.3 Nursing Mothers The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend that HIV-infected mothers not breastfeed their infants to avoid risking postnatal transmission of HIV. It is not known whether atazanavir or cobicistat is present in human milk. Because of both the potential for HIV transmission and the potential for serious adverse reactions in nursing infants, instruct mothers not to breastfeed. 8.4 Pediatric Use The safety and efficacy of EVOTAZ in pediatric patients less than 18 years of age have not been established. Atazanavir, and thus EVOTAZ, is not recommended for use in patients below the age of 3 months due to the risk of kernicterus. 8.5 Geriatric Use Clinical studies with the components of EVOTAZ did not include sufficient numbers of patients aged 65 and over to determine whether they respond differently from younger patients. In general, appropriate caution should be exercised in the administration and monitoring of EVOTAZ in elderly patients reflecting the greater frequency of decreased hepatic, renal, or cardiac function, and of concomitant disease or other drug therapy [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]. 8.6 Renal Impairment EVOTAZ is not recommended for use in HIV-treatment-experienced patients with end-stage renal disease managed with hemodialysis [see Dosage and Administration (2.3), Warnings and Precautions (5.3), and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]. 8.7 Hepatic Impairment EVOTAZ is not recommended for use in patients with hepatic impairment [see Dosage and Administration (2.4), Warnings and Precautions (5.6), and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]. 10 OVERDOSAGE Treatment for overdosage with EVOTAZ should consist of general supportive measures, including monitoring of vital signs and ECG, and observations of the patient’s clinical status. There is no specific antidote for overdose with EVOTAZ. Since atazanavir is extensively metabolized by the liver and both atazanavir and cobicistat are highly bound plasma proteins, it is unlikely that EVOTAZ will be significantly removed by hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis. Atazanavir: Human experience of acute overdose with atazanavir is limited. A single self-administered overdose of 29.2 g of atazanavir in an HIV-infected patient (73 times the 400-mg recommended dose of atazanavir administered without a CYP3A inhibitor) was associated with asymptomatic bifascicular block and PR interval prolongation. These events resolved spontaneously. At atazanavir doses resulting in high atazanavir exposures, jaundice due to indirect (unconjugated) hyperbilirubinemia (without associated liver function test changes) or PR interval prolongation may be observed. [See Warnings and Precautions (5.1, 5.9) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.2).] 11 DESCRIPTION EVOTAZ™ is a fixed-dose combination tablet for oral administration containing the active ingredients atazanavir and cobicistat. Atazanavir is an HIV-1 protease inhibitor. Cobicistat is a mechanism-based inhibitor of cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes of the CYP3A family. EVOTAZ tablets contain 342 mg of atazanavir sulfate, equivalent to 300 mg of atazanavir, and 150 mg of cobicistat, as well as the following inactive ingredients in the tablet core: croscarmellose sodium, crospovidone, hydroxypropyl cellulose, magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose, silicon dioxide, sodium starch glycolate, and stearic acid. The tablets are film-coated with a coating material containing the following inactive ingredients: hypromellose, red iron oxide, talc, titanium dioxide, triacetin. Atazanavir: Atazanavir is present as the sulfate salt. The chemical name for atazanavir sulfate is (3S,8S,9S,12S)-3,12-bis(1,1-dimethylethyl)-8-hydroxy-4,11-dioxo-9-(phenylmethyl)-6-[[4-(2-pyridinyl)phenyl]methyl]-2,5,6,10,13-pentaazatetradecanedioic acid dimethyl ester, sulfate (1:1). Its molecular formula is C38H52N6O7•H2SO4, which corresponds to a molecular weight of 802.9 (sulfuric acid salt). The free base molecular weight is 704.9. Atazanavir sulfate has the following structural formula:
Cobicistat is adsorbed onto silicon dioxide. Cobicistat on silicon dioxide is a white to pale yellow solid with a solubility of 0.1 mg/mL in water at 20°C.
Atazanavir: Atazanavir is rapidly absorbed with a median Tmax of approximately 3.5 hours following multiple daily doses of atazanavir 300 mg with cobicistat 150 mg in HIV-infected subjects. Cobicistat: In a trial where subjects were instructed to take coadministered atazanavir and cobicistat with food, the median cobicistat Tmax was approximately 3.0 hours post-dose. Steady-state cobicistat Cmax, AUCtau, and Ctau (mean ± SD), values were 1.5 ± 0.5 μg/mL, 11.1 ± 4.5 μg•hr/mL, and 0.05 ± 0.07 μg/mL, respectively (n=22). Food Effect Administration of a single dose of EVOTAZ with a light meal (336 kcal, 5.1 g fat, 9.3 g protein) resulted in a 42% increase in atazanavir Cmax, a 28% increase in atazanavir AUC, a 31% increase in cobicistat Cmax, and a 24% increase in cobicistat AUC relative to the fasting state. Administration of a single dose of EVOTAZ with a high fat meal (1,038 kcal, 59 g fat, 37 g protein) resulted in a 14% reduction in atazanavir Cmax with no change in atazanavir AUC or cobicistat exposures (Cmax, AUC) relative to the fasting state. The 24-hour atazanavir concentration following a high fat meal was increased by approximately 23% due to delayed absorption; the median Tmax increased from 2.0 to 3.5 hours. Distribution Atazanavir: Atazanavir is 86% bound to human serum proteins and protein binding is independent of concentration. Cobicistat: Cobicistat is 97% to 98% bound to human plasma proteins and the mean blood-to-plasma ratio was approximately 0.5. Metabolism Atazanavir: Atazanavir is extensively metabolized in humans by CYP3A. Other minor biotransformation pathways for atazanavir or its metabolites consisted of glucuronidation, N-dealkylation, hydrolysis, and oxygenation with dehydrogenation. Cobicistat: Cobicistat is metabolized by CYP3A and to a minor extent by CYP2D6 enzymes and does not undergo glucuronidation. Elimination Atazanavir: The mean elimination half-life of atazanavir in healthy volunteers (n=62) and HIV-infected adult patients (n=13) was approximately 7.5 hours at steady state following a single dose of EVOTAZ with a light meal. Cobicistat: The median terminal plasma half-life of cobicistat following administration is approximately 3 to 4 hours. With single dose administration of [14C] cobicistat after multiple dosing of cobicistat for six days, 86.2% and 8.2% of the administered dose was excreted in feces and urine, respectively. Specific Populations Renal Impairment EVOTAZ is not recommended for use in HIV-treatment-experienced adults with end-stage renal disease managed with hemodialysis. [See Dosage and Administration (2.3).] Atazanavir: In healthy subjects, the renal elimination of unchanged atazanavir was approximately 7% of the administered dose. Atazanavir has been studied in adult subjects with severe renal impairment (n=20), including those on hemodialysis, at multiple doses of 400 mg once daily. The mean atazanavir Cmax was 9% lower, AUC was 19% higher, and Cmin was 96% higher in subjects with severe renal impairment not undergoing hemodialysis (n=10), than in age-, weight-, and gender-matched subjects with normal renal function. In a 4-hour dialysis session, 2.1% of the administered dose was removed. When atazanavir was administered either prior to, or following hemodialysis (n=10), the geometric means for Cmax, AUC, and Cmin were approximately 25% to 43% lower compared to subjects with normal renal function. The mechanism of this decrease is unknown. Cobicistat: A study of the pharmacokinetics of cobicistat was performed in non−HIV-1 infected subjects with severe renal impairment (estimated creatinine clearance below 30 mL/min). No clinically relevant differences in cobicistat pharmacokinetics were observed between subjects with severe renal impairment and healthy subjects. [See Use in Specific Populations (8.6).] Hepatic Impairment EVOTAZ has not been studied in patients with hepatic impairment and is not recommended for use in patients with hepatic impairment. [See Dosage and Administration (2.4).] Atazanavir: Atazanavir is primarily metabolized and eliminated by the liver. Increased concentrations of atazanavir are expected in patients with moderately or severely impaired hepatic function. Cobicistat: Cobicistat is primarily metabolized and eliminated by the liver. No clinically relevant differences in cobicistat pharmacokinetics were observed between subjects with moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh Class B) and healthy subjects. The effect of severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh Class C) on the pharmacokinetics of cobicistat has not been studied. [See Use in Specific Populations (8.7).] Gender and Age Atazanavir: There were no clinically important pharmacokinetic differences observed due to age or gender. Cobicistat: No clinically relevant pharmacokinetic differences have been observed between men and women for cobicistat. Assessment of Drug Interactions Atazanavir has been shown in vivo not to induce its own metabolism, nor to increase the biotransformation of some drugs metabolized by CYP3A. In a multiple-dose study, atazanavir decreased the urinary ratio of endogenous 6β-OH cortisol to cortisol versus baseline, indicating that CYP3A production was not induced. Drug interaction studies were not conducted for EVOTAZ or for atazanavir coadministered with cobicistat. Drug interaction studies of cobicistat were conducted with desipramine, digoxin, and efavirenz. Drug interaction studies of cobicistat coadministered with elvitegravir included rosuvastatin and rifabutin. The effects of cobicistat on the exposure of coadministered drugs are summarized in Table 7. For information regarding clinical recommendations, see Drug Interactions (7). Table 7: Drug Interactions: Pharmacokinetic Parameters for Coadministered Drugs in the Presence of Cobicistata

ATV is an azapeptide HIV-1 protease inhibitor (PI) that selectively inhibits the virus-specific processing of viral Gag and Gag-Pol polyproteins in HIV-1 infected cells, thus preventing formation of mature virions. Cobicistat is a mechanism-based inhibitor of cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A). Inhibition of CYP3A-mediated metabolism by cobicistat increases the systemic exposure of the CYP3A substrate atazanavir. Antiviral Activity in Cell Culture Atazanavir exhibits anti−HIV-1 activity with a mean 50% effective concentration (EC50 value) in the absence of human serum of 2 to 5 nM against a variety of laboratory and clinical HIV-1 isolates grown in peripheral blood mononuclear cells, macrophages, CEM-SS cells, and MT‑2 cells. ATV has activity against HIV-1 Group M subtype viruses A, B, C, D, AE, AG, F, G, and J isolates in cell culture. ATV has variable activity against HIV-2 isolates (1.9-32 nM), with EC50 values above the EC50 values of failure isolates. Two-drug combination antiviral activity studies with ATV showed no antagonism in cell culture with NNRTIs (delavirdine, efavirenz, and nevirapine), PIs (amprenavir, indinavir, lopinavir, nelfinavir, ritonavir, and saquinavir), NRTIs (abacavir, didanosine, emtricitabine, lamivudine, stavudine, tenofovir, zalcitabine, and zidovudine), the HIV-1 fusion inhibitor enfuvirtide, and two compounds used in the treatment of viral hepatitis, adefovir and ribavirin, without enhanced cytotoxicity. Cobicistat does not inhibit recombinant HIV-1 protease in a biochemical assay and has no detectable antiviral activity in cell culture against HIV-1, HBV, or HCV. The antiviral activity in cell culture of selected HIV-1 antiretroviral drugs was not antagonized by cobicistat. Resistance In Cell Culture: HIV-1 isolates with a decreased susceptibility to ATV have been selected in cell culture and obtained from patients treated with ATV or atazanavir coadministered with ritonavir. HIV-1 isolates with 93- to 183-fold reduced susceptibility to ATV from three different viral strains were selected in cell culture by 5 months. The substitutions in these HIV-1 viruses that contributed to ATV resistance include I50L, N88S, I84V, A71V, and M46I. Changes were also observed at the protease cleavage sites following drug selection. Recombinant viruses containing the I50L substitution without other major PI substitutions were growth impaired and displayed increased susceptibility in cell culture to other PIs (amprenavir, indinavir, lopinavir, nelfinavir, ritonavir, and saquinavir). The I50L and I50V substitutions yielded selective resistance to ATV and amprenavir, respectively, and did not appear to be cross-resistant. Clinical Studies: Resistance to EVOTAZ is driven by atazanavir as cobicistat lacks antiviral activity. For the complete atazanavir resistance-associated substitutions, refer to the atazanavir full prescribing information. Clinical Studies of Treatment-Naive Patients Receiving Atazanavir 300 mg Coadministered with Cobicistat 150 mg: In an analysis of treatment-failure subjects who received atazanavir coadministered with cobicistat in Study 114 through Week 48, evaluable genotypic data from paired baseline and treatment-failure isolates were available for 11 of the 12 virologic failures in this group (3%, 11/344). Among the 11 subjects, 2 developed the emtricitabine-associated resistance substitution M184V. No subject developed the tenofovir-associated resistance substitution K65R or any primary resistance substitution associated with protease inhibitors. In the ritonavir group, evaluable genotypic data was available for all 12 virologic failures (3%, 12/348) and no subject had emergent resistance to any component of the regimen. Cross-Resistance Cross-resistance among PIs has been observed. Baseline phenotypic and genotypic analyses of clinical isolates from ATV clinical trials of PI-experienced patients showed that isolates cross-resistant to multiple PIs were cross-resistant to ATV. Greater than 90% of the isolates with substitutions that included I84V or G48V were resistant to ATV. Greater than 60% of isolates containing L90M, G73S/T/C, A71V/T, I54V, M46I/L, or a change at V82 were resistant to ATV, and 38% of isolates containing a D30N substitution in addition to other changes were resistant to ATV. Isolates resistant to ATV were also cross-resistant to other PIs with >90% of the isolates resistant to indinavir, lopinavir, nelfinavir, ritonavir, and saquinavir, and 80% resistant to amprenavir. In treatment-experienced patients, PI-resistant viral isolates that developed the I50L substitution in addition to other PI resistance-associated substitution were also cross-resistant to other PIs. International AIDS Society (IAS)-defined PI resistance substitutions, depending on the number and type, may confer a reduced virologic response to atazanavir. Please refer to the “Baseline Genotype/Phenotype and Virologic Outcome Analyses” section in the atazanavir full prescribing information. 13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY 13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility Carcinogenesis Atazanavir: Long-term carcinogenicity studies in mice and rats were carried out with atazanavir for two years. In the mouse study, drug-related increases in hepatocellular adenomas were found in females at 360 mg/kg/day. The systemic drug exposure (AUC) at the NOAEL in females, (120 mg/kg/day) was 2.8 times and in males (80 mg/kg/day) was 2.9 times higher than those in humans at the clinical dose (300 mg/day atazanavir coadministered with 100 mg/day ritonavir, nonpregnant patients). In the rat study, no drug-related increases in tumor incidence were observed at doses up to 1200 mg/kg/day, for which AUCs were 1.1 (males) or 3.9 (females) times those measured in humans at the clinical dose. Cobicistat: In a long-term carcinogenicity study in mice, no drug-related increases in tumor incidence were observed at doses up to 50 and 100 mg/kg/day (males and females, respectively). Cobicistat exposures at these doses were approximately 7 (male) and 16 (females) times, respectively, the human systemic exposure at the therapeutic daily dose. In a long-term carcinogenicity study of cobicistat in rats, an increased incidence of follicular cell adenomas and/or carcinomas in the thyroid gland was observed at doses of 25 and 50 mg/kg/day in males, and at 30 mg/kg/day in females. The follicular cell findings are considered to be rat-specific, secondary to hepatic microsomal enzyme induction and thyroid hormone imbalance, and are not relevant for humans. At the highest doses tested in the rat carcinogenicity study, systemic exposures were approximately 2 times the human systemic exposure at the therapeutic daily dose. Mutagenesis Atazanavir: Atazanavir tested positive in an in vitro clastogenicity test using primary human lymphocytes, in the absence and presence of metabolic activation. Atazanavir tested negative in the in vitro Ames reverse-mutation assay, in vivo micronucleus and DNA repair tests in rats, and in vivo DNA damage test in rat duodenum (comet assay). Cobicistat: Cobicistat was not genotoxic in the reverse mutation bacterial test (Ames test), mouse lymphoma or rat micronucleus assays. Impairment of Fertility Atazanavir: At the systemic drug exposure levels (AUC) 0.9 (in male rats) or 2.3 (in female rats) times that of the human clinical dose, (300 mg/day atazanavir coadministered with 100 mg/day ritonavir) significant effects on mating, fertility, or early embryonic development were not observed. Cobicistat: Cobicistat did not affect fertility in male or female rats at daily exposures (AUC) approximately 3-fold higher than human exposures at the recommended 150 mg daily dose. Fertility was normal in the offspring of rats exposed daily from before birth (in utero) through sexual maturity at daily exposures (AUC) of approximately similar human exposures at the recommended 150 mg daily dose. 14 CLINICAL STUDIES The safety and efficacy of atazanavir coadministered with cobicistat were evaluated in a randomized, double-blind, active-controlled trial (Study 114) in HIV-1 infected treatment-naive subjects with baseline estimated creatinine clearance above 70 mL/min (N=692). In Study 114, subjects were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either atazanavir 300 mg coadministered with cobicistat 150 mg once daily or atazanavir 300 mg coadministered with ritonavir 100 mg once daily. All subjects received concomitant treatment with 300 mg of tenofovir DF and 200 mg of emtricitabine once a day administered as a single tablet. Randomization was stratified by screening HIV-1 RNA level (≤100,000 copies/mL or >100,000 copies/mL). The mean age of subjects was 37 years (range: 19-70); 83% were male, 60% were White, 18% were Black, and 12% were Asian. The mean baseline plasma HIV-1 RNA was 4.8 log10 copies/mL (range: 3.2-6.4). The mean baseline CD4+ cell count was 352 cells/mm3 (range: 1-1455) and 17% had CD4+ cell counts ≤200 cells/mm3. Forty percent (40%) of patients had baseline viral loads >100,000 copies/mL. Virologic outcomes in Study 114 through Week 48 are presented in Table 8. In Study 114, the mean increase from baseline in CD4+ cell count at Week 48 was 213 cells/mm3 in patients receiving atazanavir coadministered with cobicistat and 219 cells/mm3 in patients receiving atazanavir coadministered with ritonavir. Table 8: Virologic Outcomes of Randomized Treatment of Study 114 in HIV-1 Infected Treatment-Naive Adults at Week 48a
b Includes subjects who had ≥50 copies/mL in the Week 48 window; subjects who discontinued early due to lack or loss of efficacy; subjects who discontinued for reasons other than an adverse event, death or lack or loss of efficacy and at the time of discontinuation had a viral value of ≥50 copies/mL. c Includes subjects who discontinued due to adverse event or death at any time point from Day 1 through the time window if this resulted in no virologic data on treatment during the specified window. There were no deaths reported in Study 114. d Includes subjects who discontinued for reasons other than an adverse event, death, or lack or loss of efficacy (e.g., withdrew consent, loss to follow-up, etc). 16 HOW SUPPLIED/STORAGE AND HANDLING EVOTAZ™ tablets, 300 mg atazanavir and 150 mg cobicistat, are oval, biconvex, pink, film-coated, debossed with “3641” on one side and plain on the other side.

Keep container tightly closed. 17 PATIENT COUNSELING INFORMATION Advise the patient to read the FDA-approved patient labeling (Patient Information). A statement to patients and healthcare providers is included on the product’s label: ALERT: Find out about medicines that should NOT be taken with EVOTAZ. Inform patients that EVOTAZ is not a cure for HIV infection and they may continue to experience illnesses associated with HIV infection, including opportunistic infections. Inform patients that sustained decreases in plasma HIV RNA are associated with a reduced risk of progression to AIDS and death. Advise patients they should remain under the care of a healthcare provider when using EVOTAZ. Advise patients to avoid doing things that can spread HIV infection to others. • Do not share or reuse needles or other injection equipment. • Do not share personal items that can have blood or body fluids on them, like toothbrushes and razor blades. • Do not have any kind of sex without protection. Always practice safer sex by using a latex or polyurethane condom to lower the chance of sexual contact with semen, vaginal secretions, or blood. • Do not breastfeed. It is not known if EVOTAZ can be passed to your baby in your breast milk and whether it could harm your baby. Also, mothers with HIV should not breastfeed because HIV can be passed to the baby in breast milk. Dosing Instructions Advise patients to take EVOTAZ with food every day and take other concomitant antiretroviral therapy as prescribed. Inform patients that EVOTAZ must always be used in combination with other antiretroviral drugs. Tell patients not to discontinue therapy without consulting with their healthcare provider. Advise patients not to miss a dose of EVOTAZ, but if they do miss a dose they should follow the guidelines below. • If a dose of EVOTAZ is missed by 12 hours or less, take the missed dose of EVOTAZ right away. Take the next dose of EVOTAZ at the usual time. • If a dose of EVOTAZ is missed by more than 12 hours, wait and take the next dose at the usual time. If a dose of EVOTAZ is missed, do not double the next dose. Advise patients or caregivers to call their healthcare provider or pharmacist if they have any questions. Drug Interactions EVOTAZ may interact with some drugs; therefore, inform patients of the potential for serious drug interactions with EVOTAZ, and that some drugs should not be taken with EVOTAZ, or some drugs may need a change in dose. Advise patients to report to their healthcare provider the use of any other prescription, nonprescription medication, or herbal products, particularly St. John’s wort. Advise patients receiving a PDE5 inhibitor and EVOTAZ that they may be at an increased risk of PDE5 inhibitor-associated adverse events including hypotension, syncope, visual disturbances, and priapism, and to promptly report any symptoms to their doctor. Inform patients that REVATIO® (used to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension) is contraindicated with EVOTAZ and that dose adjustments are necessary when EVOTAZ is used with CIALIS®, LEVITRA®, or VIAGRA® (used to treat erectile dysfunction), or ADCIRCA® (used to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension). Instruct patients receiving hormonal contraceptives to use additional or alternative non-hormonal contraceptive measures during therapy with EVOTAZ because no data are available to make recommendations regarding use of hormonal contraceptives and atazanavir coadministered with cobicistat. Cardiac Conduction Abnormalities Inform patients that EVOTAZ may produce changes in the electrocardiogram (e.g., PR prolongation). Advise patients to consult their healthcare provider if they are experiencing symptoms such as dizziness or lightheadedness. Rash Inform patients that mild rashes without other symptoms have been reported with atazanavir use. These rashes go away within two weeks with no change in treatment. However, inform patients there have been reports of severe skin reactions (e.g., Stevens-Johnson syndrome, erythema multiforme, and toxic skin eruptions) with atazanavir use. Advise patients to seek medical evaluation immediately if signs or symptoms of severe skin reactions or hypersensitivity reactions develop (including, but not limited to, severe rash or rash accompanied by fever, general malaise, muscle or joint aches, blisters, oral lesions, conjunctivitis, or facial edema). Nephrolithiasis and Cholelithiasis Inform patients that kidney stones and/or gallstones have been reported with atazanavir use. Some patients with kidney stones and/or gallstones required hospitalization for additional management and some had complications. Hyperbilirubinemia Inform patients that asymptomatic elevations in indirect bilirubin have occurred in patients receiving atazanavir, a component of EVOTAZ. Tell patients this may be accompanied by yellowing of the skin or whites of the eyes and alternative antiretroviral therapy may be considered if they have cosmetic concerns. Fat Redistribution Inform patients that redistribution or accumulation of body fat may occur in patients receiving antiretroviral therapy including protease inhibitors and that the cause and long-term health effects of these conditions are not known at this time. |
