Seladelpar

1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE LIVDELZI is indicated for the treatment of primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) in combination with ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) in adults who have had an inadequate response to UDCA, or as monotherapy in patients unable to tolerate UDCA. This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on a reduction of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) [see Clinical Studies (14) ] . Improvement in survival or prevention of liver decompensation events have not been demonstrated. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in confirmatory trial(s). LIVDELZI is a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-delta agonist indicated for the treatment of primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) in combination with ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) in adults who have an inadequate response to UDCA, or as monotherapy in patients unable to tolerate UDCA. This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on a reduction of alkaline phosphatase (ALP). Improvement in survival or prevention of liver decompensation events have not been demonstrated. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in confirmatory trial(s). ( 1 ) Limitations of Use Use of LIVDELZI is not recommended in patients who have or develop decompensated cirrhosis (e.g., ascites, variceal bleeding, hepatic encephalopathy).

12.1 Mechanism of Action Seladelpar is a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-delta (δ) agonist. However, the mechanism by which seladelpar exerts its therapeutic effects in patients with PBC is not well understood. Pharmacological activity that is potentially relevant to therapeutic effects includes inhibition of bile acid synthesis through activation of PPARδ, which is a nuclear receptor expressed in most tissues, including the liver. Published studies show that PPARδ activation by seladelpar reduces bile acid synthesis through Fibroblast Growth Factor 21 (FGF21)-dependent downregulation of CYP7A1, the key enzyme for the synthesis of bile acids from cholesterol.

2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION The recommended dosage of LIVDELZI is 10 mg orally once daily. Administer LIVDELZI with or without food. ( 2.1 ) 2.1 Recommended Dosage and Administration The recommended dosage of LIVDELZI is 10 mg orally once daily. Administer LIVDELZI with or without food [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] . 2.2 Administration Modification for Bile Acid Sequestrants Administer LIVDELZI at least 4 hours before or 4 hours after taking bile acid sequestrants, or at as great an interval as possible [see Drug Interactions (7.1) ] .

6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in labeling: Fractures [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] Liver Test Abnormalities [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] Most common adverse reactions (reported in ≥5% and higher compared to placebo) are headache, abdominal pain, nausea, abdominal distension, and dizziness.

In Trial 1, 193 patients were randomized to receive either LIVDELZI 10 mg (N=128) or placebo (N=65) once daily for 12 months [see Clinical Studies (14) ] . LIVDELZI or placebo was administered in combination with UDCA in 94% of patients and as monotherapy in 6% of patients who were unable to tolerate UDCA. Common Adverse Reactions Table 1 presents common adverse reactions that occurred in Trial 1. Table 1: Common Adverse Reactions Occurring Through Week 52 in Adult Patients with PBC (Trial 1) Included 12 patients (6%) who were intolerant to UDCA and initiated treatment as monotherapy: 8 patients (6%) in the LIVDELZI 10 mg arm and 4 patients (6%) in the placebo arm. Adverse Reaction Occurring in greater than or equal to 5% of patients in the LIVDELZI treatment arm and at an incidence greater than or equal to 1% higher than in the placebo arm. LIVDELZI 10 mg Once Daily (N=128) % (n) PLACEBO (N=65) % (n) Headache 8% (10) 3% (2) Abdominal pain The gastrointestinal adverse reactions were mild to moderate without the need for discontinuation of LIVDELZI. 7% (9) 2% (1) Nausea 6% (8) 5% (3) Abdominal distension 6% (8) 3% (2) Dizziness 5% (6) 2% (1) Fractures In Trial 1, fractures occurred in 4% (n=5) of LIVDELZI-treated patients compared to no placebo-treated patients. Baseline bone mineral density was not obtained. The median time to fracture after receiving LIVDELZI was 295 days (range: 89–349). Less Common Adverse Reactions Additional adverse reactions that occurred more frequently in the LIVDELZI-treated patients compared to placebo, but in less than 5% of patients, included dyspepsia, rash, alopecia, anemia, and cough. Laboratory Abnormalities Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate In Trial 1, LIVDELZI-treated patients developed decreased estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (serum creatinine elevations) more frequently compared to placebo-treated patients. Ten percent (n=12) of LIVDELZI-treated patients had a decline in eGFR of at least 25%, compared to 2% (n=1) of placebo-treated patients. None of the patients experienced an eGFR decline of 50% or more. The decline in eGFR stabilized or returned towards baseline with ongoing LIVDELZI treatment. None of the patients required discontinuation of LIVDELZI and there were no clinical findings associated with the observed changes in eGFR.

5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Fractures : Consider the risk of fracture in patients treated with LIVDELZI. Monitor bone health according to current standards of care. ( 5.1 ) Liver Test Abnormalities : Obtain baseline clinical and laboratory liver assessments prior to starting LIVDELZI and monitor during treatment. Interrupt or discontinue LIVDELZI if the liver tests worsen. ( 5.2 ) Biliary Obstruction : Avoid use in patients with complete biliary obstruction. If biliary obstruction is suspected, interrupt LIVDELZI and treat as clinically indicated. ( 5.3 ) 5.1 Fractures Fractures occurred in 4% of LIVDELZI-treated patients compared to no placebo-treated patients [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] . Consider the risk of fracture in the care of patients treated with LIVDELZI and monitor bone health according to current standards of care. 5.2 Liver Test Abnormalities LIVDELZI has been associated with dose-related increases in serum transaminase (aspartate aminotransferase [AST] and alanine aminotransferase [ALT]) levels greater than 3-times upper limit of normal (ULN) in PBC patients receiving 50 mg once daily (5-times higher than the recommended dosage) and 200 mg (20-times higher than the recommended dosage) once daily. Transaminase levels returned to pretreatment levels upon LIVDELZI discontinuation. LIVDELZI 10 mg once daily did not show a similar pattern for increases in transaminase levels [see Overdosage (10) ] . Obtain baseline clinical and laboratory assessments at treatment initiation with LIVDELZI and monitor thereafter according to routine patient management. Interrupt LIVDELZI treatment if the liver tests (ALT, AST, total bilirubin [TB], and/or alkaline phosphatase [ALP]) worsen, or the patient develops signs and symptoms consistent with clinical hepatitis (e.g., jaundice, right upper quadrant pain, eosinophilia). Consider permanent discontinuation if liver tests worsen after restarting LIVDELZI. 5.3 Biliary Obstruction Avoid use of LIVDELZI in patients with complete biliary obstruction. If biliary obstruction is suspected, interrupt LIVDELZI and treat as clinically indicated.

4 CONTRAINDICATIONS None. None.

10 OVERDOSAGE PBC patients who received 5-times the recommended dosage or 20-times the recommended dosage of LIVDELZI experienced an increase in liver transaminases, muscle pain, and/or elevations in creatine phosphokinase, which resolved upon LIVDELZI discontinuation [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] . There is no specific treatment for overdose with LIVDELZI. General supportive care of the patient is indicated, as appropriate. If indicated, elimination of unabsorbed drug should be achieved by emesis or gastric lavage; usual precautions should be observed to maintain the airway. Because seladelpar is highly bound to plasma proteins, hemodialysis should not be considered.
