Dasiglucagon

1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE ZEGALOGUE ® is indicated for the treatment of severe hypoglycemia in pediatric and adult patients with diabetes aged 6 years and above. ZEGALOGUE is an antihypoglycemic agent indicated for the treatment of severe hypoglycemia in pediatric and adult patients with diabetes aged 6 years and above. ( 1 )

2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION • ZEGALOGUE autoinjector and prefilled syringe are for subcutaneous injection only. ( 2.1 ) • The dose in adults and pediatric patients aged 6 years and older is 0.6 mg. ( 2.2 ) • Administer ZEGALOGUE according to the printed instructions on the protective case label and the Instructions For Use. ( 2.1 ) • Visually inspect ZEGALOGUE prior to administration. The solution should appear clear, colorless, and free from particles. If the solution is discolored or contains particulate matter, do not use. ( 2.1 ) • Administer the injection into the lower abdomen, buttocks, thigh, or outer upper arm. ( 2.1 ) • Call for emergency assistance immediately after administering the dose. ( 2.1 ) • If there has been no response after 15 minutes, an additional dose of ZEGALOGUE from a new device may be administered while waiting for emergency assistance. ( 2.1 ) • When the patient has responded to treatment, give oral carbohydrates. ( 2.1 ) • Do not attempt to reuse ZEGALOGUE. Each device contains a single dose of dasiglucagon and cannot be reused. ( 2.1 ) 2.1 Administration Instructions ZEGALOGUE autoinjector and prefilled syringe are for subcutaneous injection only. Instruct patients and their caregivers on the signs and symptoms of severe hypoglycemia. Because severe hypoglycemia requires the help of others to recover, instruct the patient to inform those around them about ZEGALOGUE and its Instructions For Use. Administer ZEGALOGUE as soon as possible when severe hypoglycemia is recognized. Instruct the patient or caregiver to read the Instructions For Use at the time they receive a prescription for ZEGALOGUE. Emphasize the following instructions to the patient or caregiver: • Administer ZEGALOGUE according to the printed instructions on the protective case label and the Instructions For Use. • Visually inspect ZEGALOGUE prior to administration. The solution should appear clear, colorless, and free from particles. If the solution is discolored or contains particulate matter, do not use. • Administer the injection in the lower abdomen, buttocks, thigh, or outer upper arm. • Call for emergency assistance immediately after administering the dose. • If there has been no response after 15 minutes, an additional dose of ZEGALOGUE may be administered while waiting for emergency assistance. • When the patient has responded to treatment, give oral carbohydrates to restore liver glycogen and prevent recurrence of hypoglycemia. • Do not attempt to reuse ZEGALOGUE. Each ZEGALOGUE device contains a single dose of dasiglucagon and cannot be reused. 2.2 Recommended Dosage The recommended dose of ZEGALOGUE in adults and pediatric patients aged 6 years and older is 0.6 mg administered by subcutaneous injection into the lower abdomen, buttocks, thigh, or outer upper arm. If there has been no response after 15 minutes, an additional 0.6 mg dose of ZEGALOGUE from a new device may be administered.

6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following important adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling: • Hypersensitivity and Allergic Reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ] Most common adverse reactions (≥2%) associated with ZEGALOGUE are: Adults: nausea, vomiting, headache, diarrhea, and injection site pain Pediatrics: nausea, vomiting, headache, and injection site pain ( 6.1 ) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Novo Nordisk Inc., at 1-800-727-6500 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch. 6.1 Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of ZEGALOGUE cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice. In clinical trials, 316 adult patients with type 1 diabetes and 20 pediatric patients with type 1 diabetes were exposed to ZEGALOGUE. The data in Table 1 reflect exposure of 116 adult patients to ZEGALOGUE in 2 placebo-controlled trials (mean age 40 years). Table 2 reflects exposure of 20 pediatric patients exposed to ZEGALOGUE in a placebo-controlled trial. Eight patients were 7 to 11 years old, and 12 were 12 to 17 years old [see Clinical Studies (14) ] . Table 1.

The detection of antibody formation is highly dependent on the sensitivity and specificity of the assay. Additionally, the observed incidence of antibody (including neutralizing antibody) positivity in an assay may be influenced by several factors including assay methodology, sample handling, timing of sample collection, concomitant medications, and underlying disease. For these reasons, comparison of the incidence of antibodies to ZEGALOGUE with the incidence of antibodies to other products may be misleading. In clinical trials, 4/498 (<1%) of ZEGALOGUE-treated patients developed treatment-emergent anti-drug antibodies (ADAs). Two patients receiving a single dose of ZEGALOGUE had detectable ADAs to dasiglucagon for at least 14 months after dosing. One ADA-positive patient receiving multiple doses of ZEGALOGUE had ADAs with transient neutralizing activity and with cross-reactivity against native glucagon. Although no safety or efficacy concerns were noted for these ADA-positive subjects, it is unknown whether ADAs may affect pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, safety, and/or effectiveness of the drug [see Clinical Studies (14) ] .

12.3 Pharmacokinetics Absorption ZEGALOGUE absorption following subcutaneous injection of 0.6 mg resulted in a mean peak plasma concentration of 5110 pg/mL (1510 pmol/L) at around 35 minutes. Distribution The mean apparent volume of distribution was 47 L to 57 L following subcutaneous administration. Elimination The half-life was approximately 30 minutes. Metabolism Metabolism data indicated that dasiglucagon is cleared like native glucagon through proteolytic degradation pathways in blood, liver, and kidney. Specific Populations After administration of ZEGALOGUE in pediatric patients with type 1 diabetes, the mean peak plasma concentration of 3920 pg/mL occurred at around 21 minutes.
