Drug Details [pdf]

  • 1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE

    CARDAMYST is indicated for the conversion of acute symptomatic episodes of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT) to sinus rhythm in adults.

  • 2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION

    2.1 Recommended Dosage

    Administer as soon as possible after PSVT symptom onset.

    Administer CARDAMYST by the nasal route only.

    Each CARDAMYST device delivers two sprays for a total of 70 mg.

    Recommended Dosage:

    Using one nasal spray device, administer one spray into each nostril for a total initial dose of 70 mg. If symptoms persist after 10 minutes, use the second nasal spray device to administer a second dose of one spray into each nostril (70 mg total). Patients and caregivers should call their healthcare provider or seek emergency medical help if symptoms do not improve within 20 minutes after a second dose. Do not exceed 140 mg in a 24-hour period. See Instructions for Use for proper nasal spray technique.

    If a full initial dose (i.e., 2 sprays, one in each nostril) is not administered due to device malfunction or misuse, the patient should wait at least 10 minutes before self-administering a second dose, if needed.

  • 3 DOSAGE FORMS AND STRENGTHS

    Nasal Spray: Clear colorless to yellow solution. 70 mg of etripamil per device.

  • 4 CONTRAINDICATIONS

    CARDAMYST is contraindicated in patients with:

    • Hypersensitivity to CARDAMYST or any of its components.
    • Heart failure – New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class II to IV.
    • Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW), Lown-Ganong-Levine (LGL) syndromes, or manifest pre-excitation (delta wave) on a 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG).
    • Sick sinus syndrome without a permanent pacemaker.
    • Second degree atrioventricular (AV) Mobitz 2 block or higher degree of AV block.
  • 5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

    5.1 Syncope Related to Hemodynamic Effects

    Because of effects on blood pressure, heart rate, and cardiac conduction, CARDAMYST may cause dizziness and/or syncope, especially in patients with a history of syncope and high-grade AV block or sinus node dysfunction, or those with a history of syncope during an episode of PSVT. In clinical trials, a small percentage of patients (0.4%) experienced clinically significant hypotension during test dosing prior to randomization, which precluded further participation in the study. Patients with a history of hypotensive episodes or those at increased risk for hemodynamic instability should be monitored appropriately when initiating CARDAMYST.

    If syncope occurs, patients should be placed in the recumbent position and treated supportively.

    Patients should be cautioned about these possible adverse effects and advised to administer CARDAMYST in a sitting position, and in a location where the risk of fall is minimal.

  • 6 ADVERSE REACTIONS

    The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling:

    • Risk of syncope [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]

    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 of CARDAMYST was evaluated using pooled data from double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trials including NODE-1, NODE-301 Part 1, RAPID, and RAPID Extension. A total of 321 patients were treated with CARDAMYST in randomized controlled studies.

    In the RAPID and RAPID Extension studies, in which patients had the option of self-administering a second dose of CARDAMYST for a perceived episode of PSVT, the majority of patients (65%) self-administered a second dose of CARDAMYST (2x70mg).

    In NODE-301 Part 1, RAPID, and RAPID Extension, to assess tolerability, a test dose(s) was given prior to randomization. A small percentage of patients failed the test dose due to hypotension (0.4%) [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].

    The majority of treatment-related adverse reactions reported in clinical studies with CARDAMYST have been related to local reactions to, at, or near the nasal administration site, including the nose, throat, and eyes. These local reactions included nasal discomfort, nasal congestion, throat irritation, oropharyngeal pain, lacrimation, rhinorrhea, bleeding from the nose, upper-airway cough syndrome, and sneezing.

  • 8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS

    8.1 Pregnancy

    Risk Summary

    There are no available data on the use of CARDAMYST during pregnancy to inform a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or other adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. Reproductive studies conducted with intravenous administration of etripamil in pregnant rats and rabbits during organogenesis did not show any evidence of fetal harm or malformations in rats at exposures up to approximately 3x the maximum concentration (Cmax) and 0.4x the AUC at the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) and in rabbits at exposures approximately equivalent to the Cmax and 10x the AUC at the MRHD, at which maternal toxicities were observed (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 estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2%-4% and 15%-20%, respectively.

    Data

    Animal Data

    In pregnant rats, intravenous administration of etripamil throughout the period of organogenesis did not result in any adverse effects on embryofetal development at doses up to 0.375 mg/kg/day, approximately 3x the Cmax and 0.4x the AUC at the MRHD.

    In pregnant rabbits, intravenous administration of etripamil throughout the period of organogenesis did not result in embryofetal abnormalities at doses up to 0.1 mg/kg/day, approximately equivalent to the Cmax and 10x the AUC at the MRHD. Abortion in one animal was noted at the high dose of 0.1 mg/kg/day, a dose that caused maternal toxicity.

    In the pre- and post-natal toxicity study in rats, intravenous administration of etripamil from gestation day 7 through the lactation period (post-partum day 20), did not show any adverse effects on pre- and postnatal development at doses up to 0.374 mg/kg/day, approximately 3x the Cmax and 0.4x the AUC at the MRHD. Post-implantation loss was noted at 0.374 mg/kg/day, a dose that also caused significant maternal toxicity, including mortality, transient adverse clinical signs, and body weight reduction.

    8.2 Lactation

    Risk Summary

    There are no data on the presence of etripamil in human milk or animal milk. However, the structurally related compound, verapamil, is known to be present in human milk. There are no data on the effects of etripamil on the breastfed infant or on milk production. Because the presence of etripamil in breastmilk has not been characterized, and there is a potential for adverse reactions in the breastfed infant including hypotension and bradycardia, lactating women should interrupt breastfeeding and pump and discard milk for 12 hours (approximately 5 terminal half-lives) after treatment with CARDAMYST.

    8.4 Pediatric Use

    The safety and effectiveness of CARDAMYST have not been established in the pediatric population.

    Etripamil is structurally similar to another drug in the same pharmacologic class that has been associated with a high risk of potentially non-reversible electromechanical dissociation or cardiovascular collapse in pediatric patients less than 1 year of age, including neonates.

    8.5 Geriatric Use

    Of the total number of patients in clinical trials of CARDAMYST, 41% (681/1662) were 60 years of age and over, and 14% (238/1662) were 70 years of age and over. No meaningful differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between these patients and younger groups.

  • 10 OVERDOSAGE

    Overdosage is expected to cause peripheral vasodilation with possible symptomatic hypotension and reflex tachycardia. AV block and /or pauses may also occur.

    Treatment of overdosage should be supportive. Beta-adrenergic stimulation or parenteral administration of calcium solutions may increase calcium ion flux across the slow calcium channel. Clinically significant hypotensive reactions or high degree AV block should be treated with fluid administration or vasopressor agents, or cardiac pacing, respectively. Asystole should be handled by the usual measures including cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

    It is unknown whether etripamil is dialyzable. However, the structurally related compound, verapamil cannot be removed by hemodialysis.

  • 11 DESCRIPTION

    Etripamil, the active ingredient of CARDAMYST is a calcium channel blocker.

    The chemical name of etripamil is benzoic acid, 3-[2-[[(4S)-4-cyano-4-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-5-methylhexyl]methylamino]ethyl]-, methyl ester.

    Its molecular weight is 452.59 and its molecular formula is C27H36N2O4.

    The structural formula is:

    Structural Formula

    Etripamil is a colorless to slightly yellow oil. Etripamil has a pKa of 8.57 and is very soluble in methyl tert-butyl ether, freely soluble in methanol, dichloromethane and acetone, sparingly soluble in ethanol and hexane, and insoluble in water.

    CARDAMYST is a spray intended for nasal administration. Each device of CARDAMYST delivers two metered sprays of etripamil with a total of 70 mg. CARDAMYST contains 350 mg/mL of etripamil and the following inactive ingredients: acetic acid, edetate disodium, sulfuric acid for pH adjustment, and water for injection.

  • 12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY

    12.1 Mechanism of Action

    Etripamil is an L-type calcium influx inhibitor (slow channel blocker or calcium ion antagonist). Etripamil exerts its pharmacologic effect by modulating the influx of ionic calcium across the cell membrane of the AV nodal cells as well as arterial smooth muscles and contractile myocardial cells. By interrupting reentry at the AV node, etripamil can restore sinus rhythm in patients with PSVT.

    12.2 Pharmacodynamics

    Cardiac Electrophysiology

    Etripamil prolonged the baseline PR interval by 8% to 10% approximately 5 minutes following an intranasal dose of 70 mg. This PR interval prolongation begins to decline shortly after the etripamil maximum concentration (Cmax) and falls below the 8 to 10% threshold between 25 and 50 minutes. Etripamil mean maximum change from baseline PR interval was approximately 13% following a single 70 mg dose and 20% following two 70 mg doses in the NODE-103 trial. At a dose of 1 to 2 times the maximum recommended therapeutic dose, etripamil does not prolong the QTc interval.

    Hemodynamics

    In patients with induced supraventricular tachycardia in an electrophysiology laboratory, a single intranasal etripamil administration was associated with a maximal systolic blood pressure reduction of approximately 21 mm Hg with 140 mg (2 x maximum approved dose), 17 mm Hg with 105 mg (1.5 x maximum approved dose), and 3 mm Hg with 70 mg dose. No reduction in blood pressure was observed with etripamil 35 mg dose.

    12.3 Pharmacokinetics

    After one 70 mg dose of etripamil, mean (%CV) area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) is approximately 5461 (51.6%) ng*min/mL and the Cmax is approximately 99 (64.6%) ng/mL. After a second 70 mg dose of etripamil administered 10 minutes after the first dose, mean (%CV) AUC is approximately 7721 (50.3%) ng*min/mL and the Cmax is approximately 132 (59.1%) ng/mL.

    Absorption

    Etripamil median (range) time to Cmax (Tmax) is 7 minutes (3 to 20 minutes) following a single intranasal administration of 70 mg. Median Tmax is 13 minutes (3 to 35 minutes) following a second intranasal administration of 70 mg.

    Distribution

    Etripamil mean apparent volume of distribution ranges from approximately 2200 to 3500 L. Etripamil plasma protein binding is approximately 50%.

    Elimination

    Average etripamil concentration fell by approximately 60% of its peak value (Cmax) at 25 minutes and 80% of the Cmax by 60 minutes after dosing. Subsequently, concentrations decrease at a slower rate, and this decline is associated with a half-life of approximately 2.5 hours.

    Metabolism: Etripamil metabolic pathways include hydrolysis, demethylation, N-dealkylation, and secondary oxidation, glucuronidation, and taurine conjugation. Etripamil is primarily metabolized by blood esterases and hepatic metabolism, primarily via CYP3A4, and CYP3A5. Etripamil contains a methyl ester which renders it metabolically sensitive to bloodborne esterases.

    Excretion: After a single dose of radiolabeled intranasal etripamil 70 mg to healthy subjects, approximately 29% of the dose was recovered in urine (<0.05% unchanged), 26% was recovered in feces (<0.05% unchanged), and the remainder was recovered on nose and face tissues. Approximately 71% of the total administered dose was recovered in 7-10 days.

    Specific Populations

    No clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of etripamil were observed based on age (19 to 56 years old), body weight (49 to 91 kg), height (157 to 194 cm), sex, or race (Caucasian, Asian, or African American). The effect of renal impairment (eGFR < 90 mL/min) or hepatic impairment (Child Pugh A, B, or C) on etripamil pharmacokinetics is unknown. It is unknown whether etripamil is dialyzable.

    Drug Interaction Studies

    Clinical Studies and Model-Informed Approaches

    Negative chronotropic and inotropic agents: CARDAMYST was safely administered to patients taking beta blockers or calcium channel blockers. In RAPID, 107 (42%) patients were on beta blockers and 81 (32%) patients were on calcium channel blockers.

    In Vitro Studies

    Cytochrome P450 (CYP) Enzymes: Etripamil is a CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 substrate. Etripamil inhibits CYP2D6, CYP3A4, and CYP2C9 but does not inhibit CYP2B6 or CYP2C8. Etripamil does not induce CYP1A2, CYP2B6, or CYP3A4.

    Transporter Systems: Etripamil is a substrate of P-gp and OATP1B1, but not BCRP, OATP1B3, OCT1, OCT2, OAT1, OAT3, MATE1, and MATE2-K. Etripamil inhibits P-gp and MATE1, but not BCRP, BSEP, MATE2-K, OAT1, OAT3, OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OCT1, and OCT2.

  • 13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY

    13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility

    Carcinogenesis

    Long term carcinogenicity studies in rodents have not been conducted with etripamil.

    Mutagenesis

    Etripamil was not genotoxic in a bacterial reverse mutation assay, an in vitro chromosome aberration assay in human peripheral lymphocytes, and an in vivo micronucleus study in rats (IV administration).

    Impairment of Fertility

    In a male and female fertility study, rats were dosed once daily via intravenous administration at etripamil doses of 0.05 to 0.374 mg/kg/day. Male rats were dosed for 28 days prior to mating, and female rats were dosed for 14 days prior to mating and continuing up to day 7 of pregnancy. There was no effect on fertility of male and female rats at doses up to 0.374 mg/kg/day, approximately 3× the Cmax and 0.4× the AUC at the MRHD.

  • 14 CLINICAL STUDIES

    The RAPID study (NCT #03464019) was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, event-driven, phase 3 study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CARDAMYST in patients with a history of symptomatic PSVT. Six hundred ninety-two (692) patients were randomized 1:1 to CARDAMYST 70 mg or placebo. Patients with an episode of perceived PSVT were to self-administer the study drug intranasally in a medically unsupervised setting and self-administer a second dose of the study drug if symptoms persisted at 10 minutes after the first dose. Continuously obtained electrocardiographic data during the episode of PSVT were blindly adjudicated. The primary endpoint was time-to-conversion of confirmed PSVT to sinus rhythm for at least 30 seconds within 30 minutes of the first dose.

    Of the 692 randomized patients, 255 patients perceived an episode of PSVT and self-administered the study drug; 184 (72%) episodes were confirmed by blinded adjudication to be PSVT. Patients had a median age of 54 years (range 19 to 78 years) and were 71% female, 93% Caucasian, 3% Black and 4% other. Sixty-three percent (63%) of patients with confirmed PSVT episode were taking concomitant beta blocker or calcium channel blocker.

    In the study's primary analysis, patients with confirmed episodes of PSVT, Kaplan-Meier Estimates of those who converted to sinus rhythm within 30 minutes were 64% and 31% for CARDAMYST and placebo, respectively, with a hazard ratio of 2.6 [95% CI: (1.7, 4.2)], p-value <0.001. Median time-to-conversion was 17.2 minutes (95% CI: 13.4, 26.5) with CARDAMYST versus 53.5 minutes (95% CI: 38.7, 87.3) with placebo. Kaplan-Meier estimates of conversion remained in favor of CARDAMYST at 300 minutes; hazard ratio 1.7 [95% CI: (1.2, 2.4)].

    Kaplan-Meier plot of estimated probabilities of achieving sinus rhythm following treatment with CARDAMYST are shown in Figure 1.

    Figure 1

    1) 71/255 (28%) patients who self-administered CARDAMYST for a perceived episode of PSVT did not have confirmed PSVT and are excluded.

    Seventy-one (71) of 255 (28%) patients who self-administered CARDAMYST for a perceived episode of PSVT did not have PSVT confirmed due to missing ECG data (4%), resolution of PSVT prior to dosing (5%), or other rhythm diagnoses (19%). In an analysis assuming all 71 of these patients did not convert, the Kaplan-Meier estimates for conversion to sinus rhythm within 30 minutes were 50% and 23% for the CARDAMYST and placebo groups, respectively, with a hazard ratio of 2.6 [95% CI: (1.6, 4.1)].

    In RAPID, the results for the primary efficacy endpoint were generally consistent across major subgroups including geographic region, sex, age group, concomitant medications, and duration from onset of symptoms to first dose (Figure 2).
