About This Medication
11 DESCRIPTION KEBILIDI (eladocagene exuparvovec-tneq) is a gene therapy product that expresses the human aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase enzyme (hAADC). It is a recombinant adeno-associated virus serotype 2 (rAAV2) based vector containing the complementary DNA of the human DDC gene under the control of the cytomegalovirus immediate-early promoter. Eladocagene exuparvovec-tneq is produced in human embryonic kidney cells by recombinant DNA technology. KEBILIDI is a sterile suspension administered by bilateral intraputaminal infusion in one surgical session at two sites (anterior and posterior) per putamen. Each single-dose 2 mL vial contains 2.8×10 11 vg in an extractable volume of 0.5 mL of suspension. Each mL of suspension contains 5.6×10 11 vg. Patients will receive a total dose of 1.8×10 11 vg delivered as four 0.08 mL (0.45×10 11 vg) infusions (two per putamen). KEBILIDI is provided in a single-dose 2 mL vial containing a clear to slightly opaque, colorless to faint white liquid, free of visible particulates following thaw from its frozen state. The excipients include potassium chloride (3 mM), sodium chloride (337 mM), potassium dihydrogen phosphate (2 mM), disodium hydrogen phosphate (8 mM), and poloxamer 188 (0.001%).

Warnings & Precautions
5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Procedural complications: Monitor patients for procedural complications for neurosurgery, including events of respiratory and cardiac arrest after administration of KEBILIDI. ( 5.1 ) Dyskinesia: Monitor patients for dyskinesia after treatment with KEBILIDI. The use of dopamine antagonists can be used to control dyskinesia symptoms. ( 5.2 ) 5.1 Procedural Complications Procedural complications have been reported after neurosurgery required for KEBILIDI administration. These events included respiratory and cardiac arrest which occurred within 24 hours of the neurosurgical procedure and during post-surgical care [see Adverse Reactions (6) ] . KEBILIDI administration has the potential risk for additional procedure related adverse events including cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak, intracranial bleeding, neuroinflammation, acute infarction, and infection. Monitor patients for procedure related adverse events with KEBILIDI administration, including continuous cardiorespiratory monitoring during hospitalization. 5.2 Dyskinesia Dyskinesia was reported after administration of KEBILIDI. All events were reported within 3 months of administration and 2 events required hospitalization [see Adverse Reactions (6) ] . Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of dyskinesia after KEBILIDI treatment which may include involuntary movements of face, arm, leg, or entire body. These may present as fidgeting, writhing, wriggling, head bobbing or body swaying. The use of dopamine antagonists may be considered to control dyskinesia symptoms.
Contraindications
4 CONTRAINDICATIONS KEBILIDI is contraindicated in patients who have not achieved skull maturity assessed by neuroimaging. Skull maturity is needed for stereotactic neurosurgical administration of KEBILIDI. Patients who have not achieved skull maturity assessed by neuroimaging. ( 4 )
