About This Medication
11 DESCRIPTION ADZYNMA is a purified bivariant human recombinant “A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 13” (rADAMTS13) expressed in Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells using recombinant DNA technology (a mixture of Native rADAMTS13 Q23 and Variant rADAMTS13 R23 with a controlled range of the two variants ratio). ADZYNMA is produced and formulated without the addition of any exogenous raw materials of human or animal origin in the cell culture, purification, or formulation of the final product. The purification process for rADAMTS13 does not include use of a monoclonal antibody reagent. To enhance viral safety, the production process also incorporates two dedicated viral clearance steps – a solvent/detergent treatment step for inactivation and a 20 nm filtration step for removal of viruses. Recombinant ADAMTS13 has a molecular weight of approximately 172 kDa. Proteins that may be present in the final product, other than rADAMTS13, are trace quantities of host cell (CHO) proteins. ADZYNMA (rADAMTS13) is a sterile, nonpyrogenic, preservative free, white powder supplied in single-dose vials for IV use after reconstitution. Each single-dose vial contains nominally 500 IU or 1500 IU of rADAMTS13, sodium chloride (9.4 mg), calcium chloride dihydrate (1.6 mg), L-histidine (16.7 mg), mannitol (161.4 mg), sucrose (53.8 mg), and polysorbate 80 (2.7 mg). Each vial of ADZYNMA is labeled with the specific number of units of ADAMTS13 potency expressed in IU as measured with a fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) assay using a synthetic 73-amino-acid peptide (FRETS-VWF73). The potency assignment employs an ADAMTS13 concentrate standard that is referenced to a WHO (World Health Organization) international standard for ADAMTS13 concentrates and is evaluated by appropriate methodology to ensure accuracy of the results. After reconstitution with 5 mL of Sterile Water for Injection, USP, the 500 IU and the 1500 IU vials result in a nominal potency of 100 IU/mL and 300 IU/mL, respectively. All dosage strengths yield a clear, colorless solution, free from particles with a pH of approximately 7.0.

5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Hypersensitivity reactions may occur. Discontinue ADZYNMA if hypersensitivity symptoms occur and administer appropriate emergency treatment. ( 5.1 ) Immunogenicity: Patients may develop antibodies to rADAMTS13 which could potentially result in a decreased or lack of response to rADAMTS13. Patients may develop antibodies to host cell proteins which could potentially result in adverse reactions. There are no data on risk in previously untreated patients (subjects naïve to plasma-based products). ( 5.2 ) 5.1 Hypersensitivity Allergic-type hypersensitivity including anaphylactic reactions may occur with ADZYNMA. Patients should be informed of the early signs of hypersensitivity including but not limited to tachycardia, tightness of the chest, wheezing and/or acute respiratory distress, hypotension, generalized urticaria, pruritus, rhinoconjunctivitis, angioedema, lethargy, nausea, vomiting, paresthesia, and restlessness. If signs and symptoms of severe allergic reactions occur, immediately discontinue administration of ADZYNMA and provide appropriate supportive care. 5.2 Immunogenicity There is a potential for immunogenicity with ADZYNMA. Patients may develop neutralizing antibodies to ADAMTS13, which could potentially result in a decreased or lack of response to ADAMTS13. Neutralizing antibodies were not reported in the cTTP clinical trials. All subjects had been previously exposed to ADAMTS13 through plasma-based products. There are no data on immunogenicity with ADZYNMA in previously untreated patients (subjects naïve to plasma-based products) [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.6) ] . Patients may develop antibodies to host cell proteins which could potentially result in adverse reactions. There are no data on immunogenicity to host cell proteins in previously untreated patients (subjects naïve to plasma-based products).
