ENJAYMO HCP Indication and Important Safety Information

INDICATION

ENJAYMO^® (sutimlimab-jome) is indicated for the treatment of hemolysis in adults with cold agglutinin disease (CAD).

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

CONTRAINDICATIONS

ENJAYMO is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to sutimlimab-jome or any of the inactive ingredients.

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

Serious Infections Including Those Caused by Encapsulated Bacteria

• ENJAYMO, a proximal classical complement C1s inhibitor, increases susceptibility to serious infections, including those caused by encapsulated bacteria e.g. Neisseria meningitidis (any serogroup, including non-groupable strains), Streptococcus pneumoniae, and Haemophilus influenzae type B.
• Life-threatening and fatal infections with encapsulated bacteria have occurred in both vaccinated and unvaccinated patients treated with complement inhibitors.
• Serious infections (bacterial and viral) were reported in 15% (10/66) of patients receiving ENJAYMO in the two phase 3 trials. These infections included urinary tract infection with sepsis, respiratory tract infection, pneumonia, otomastoiditis, and skin infections. One patient (1.5%) died due to Klebsiella pneumoniae.
• Complete or update vaccination against encapsulated bacteria at least 2 weeks prior to administration of the first dose of ENJAYMO, according to the most current ACIP recommendations for patients receiving a complement inhibitor.
• If urgent ENJAYMO therapy is indicated in a patient who is not up to date on their vaccine(s), administer as soon as possible.
• Vaccination does not eliminate the risk of serious encapsulated bacterial infections. Closely monitor patients for early signs and symptoms of serious infection and evaluate patients immediately if an infection is suspected.
• If ENJAYMO treatment is administered to patients with active systemic infections, monitor closely for signs and symptoms of worsening infection. Some infections may become rapidly life-threatening or fatal if not recognized and treated promptly. Inform patients of these signs and symptoms and steps to be taken to seek immediate medical care.
  • Consider interruption of ENJAYMO treatment in patients who are undergoing treatment for serious infection.
  • Consider patients’ immune status when initiating treatment with ENJAYMO.

Infusion-Related Reactions

• Administration of ENJAYMO may result in infusion-related reactions. In the two phase 3 trials, 29% (19/66) of patients treated with ENJAYMO experienced infusion-related reactions. One patient permanently discontinued ENJAYMO due to an infusion-related reaction.
• Monitor patients for infusion-related reactions and interrupt if a reaction occurs.
• Discontinue ENJAYMO infusion and institute appropriate supportive measures if signs of hypersensitivity reactions, such as cardiovascular instability or respiratory compromise, occur.

Risk of Autoimmune Disease

• Based on its mechanism of action, ENJAYMO may potentially increase the risk for developing autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Development of SLE has been associated with inherited classical complement deficiency.
• In clinical trials, 4.5% (3/66) of patients developed a relapse or worsening of previously diagnosed autoimmune disease.
• Monitor ENJAYMO patients for signs and symptoms and manage medically.

Recurrent Hemolysis After ENJAYMO Discontinuation

• If treatment with ENJAYMO is interrupted, closely monitor patients for signs and symptoms of recurrent hemolysis, eg, elevated levels of total bilirubin or lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) accompanied by a decrease in hemoglobin, or reappearance of symptoms such as fatigue, dyspnea, palpitations, or hemoglobinuria. Consider restarting ENJAYMO if signs and symptoms of hemolysis occur after discontinuation.

ADVERSE REACTIONS

• The most common adverse reactions in the CADENZA trial (Part A) (incidence ≥18%) are rhinitis, headache, hypertension, acrocyanosis, and Raynaud’s phenomenon. The most common adverse reactions in the CARDINAL trial (incidence ≥25%) are urinary tract infection, respiratory tract infection, bacterial infection, dizziness, fatigue, peripheral edema, arthralgia, cough, hypertension, and nausea.
