Limitations of Use JARDIANCE is not recommended in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus. It may increase the risk of diabetic ketoacidosis in these patients [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]. JARDIANCE is not recommended for use to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus with an eGFR less than 30 mL/min/1.73 m2. JARDIANCE is likely to be ineffective in this setting based upon its mechanism of action. 2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION 2.1 Prior to Initiation of JARDIANCE Assess renal function before initiating JARDIANCE and as clinically indicated [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)]. In patients with volume depletion, correct this condition before initiating JARDIANCE [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2), Use in Specific Populations (8.5, 8.6)]. 2.2 Recommended Dosage The recommended dose of JARDIANCE is 10 mg once daily in the morning, taken with or without food. For additional glycemic control, the dose may be increased to 25 mg in patients tolerating JARDIANCE. Use for glycemic control is not recommended in patients with an eGFR less than 30 mL/min/1.73 m2. Data are insufficient to provide a dosing recommendation in patients; o who have type 2 diabetes and established cardiovascular disease with an eGFR less than 30 mL/min/1.73 m2, or o who have heart failure with reduced ejection fraction with an eGFR less than 20 mL/min/1.73 m2 [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) and Use in Specific Populations (8.6)]. JARDIANCE is contraindicated in patients on dialysis [see Contraindications (4)]. 3 DOSAGE FORMS AND STRENGTHS JARDIANCE tablets available as: 10 mg pale yellow, round, biconvex and bevel-edged, film-coated tablets debossed with “S 10” on one side and the Boehringer Ingelheim company symbol on the other side. 25 mg pale yellow, oval, biconvex, film-coated tablets debossed with “S 25” on one side and the Boehringer Ingelheim company symbol on the other side. 4 CONTRAINDICATIONS Hypersensitivity to empagliflozin or any of the excipients in JARDIANCE, reactions such as angioedema have occurred [see Warnings and Precautions (5.7)]. Patients on dialysis [see Use in Specific Populations (8.6)]. 2 5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS 5.1 Ketoacidosis Reports of ketoacidosis, a serious life-threatening condition requiring urgent hospitalization have been identified in clinical trials and postmarketing surveillance in patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus receiving sodium glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, including JARDIANCE. Fatal cases of ketoacidosis have been reported in patients taking JARDIANCE. In placebo-controlled trials of patients with type 1 diabetes, the risk of ketoacidosis was increased in patients who received SGLT2 inhibitors compared to patients who received placebo. JARDIANCE is not indicated for the treatment of patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus [see Indications and Usage (1)]. Patients treated with JARDIANCE who present with signs and symptoms consistent with severe metabolic acidosis should be assessed for ketoacidosis regardless of presenting blood glucose levels, as ketoacidosis associated with JARDIANCE may be present even

  • Treatment of Diabetes Mellitus
    TREATMENT OF DIABETES MELLITUS DIABETES is a condition that affects how the body makes energy from food. Food is broken down into sugar (glucose) in the body and released into the blood. When the blood sugar level rises after a meal, insulin responds to let the sugar into the cells to be used as energy. In diabetes, the body either does not make enough insulin or it stops responding to insulin as well as it should. This results in sugar staying in the blood and leads to serious health problems over time. DIAGNOSIS OF DIABETES1 • A1C Test: Lab test measuring average blood sugar over past two to three months • Fasting Blood Sugar Test: Lab test measuring blood sugar after eight hours of no food or drink • Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT): Measures blood sugar before and two hours after drinking a specific sugary liquid • Random Blood Sugar Test: Measures blood sugar at a moment in time, without any kind of preparation (like fasting) FASTING BLOOD ORAL GLUCOSE TOLERANCE RANDOM BLOOD RESULT A1C TEST SUGAR TEST TEST SUGAR TEST Diabetes ≥ 6.5% ≥126 mg/dL ≥ 200 mg/dL ≥ 200 mg/dL Prediabetes 5.7 – 6.4% 100 – 125 mg/dL 140 – 199 mg/dL N/A Normal < 5.7% ≤99 mg/dL < 140 mg/dL N/A NON-DRUG TREATMENTS2 THERAPY COST WHAT TO EXPECT Diet (Mediterranean diet) and exercise (30 minutes a day, five days a week of moderate- Weight loss $-$$ intensity exercise); 7% weight loss decreases risk of diabetes3 Psychological intervention $$-$$$ Psychotherapy may reduce diabetic distress and improve glycemic control4,5 nationalcooperativerx.com PRESCRIPTION TREATMENTS

  • A Phase Ib/II Study of Xentuzumab, an IGF-Neutralising Antibody

Breast Cancer Research (2021) 23:8 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13058-020-01382-8 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access A phase Ib/II study of xentuzumab, an IGF-neutralising antibody, combined with exemestane and everolimus in hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative locally advanced/metastatic breast cancer Peter Schmid1*, Marie-Paule Sablin2, Jonas Bergh3, Seock-Ah Im4, Yen-Shen Lu5, Noelia Martínez6, Patrick Neven7, Keun Seok Lee8, Serafín Morales9, J.

This phase Ib/II exploratory trial evaluated xentuzumab plus everolimus and exemestane in hormone receptor-positive, locally advanced and/or metastatic breast cancer (LA/MBC). Methods: Patients with hormone receptor-positive/HER2-negative LA/MBC resistant to non-steroidal aromatase inhibitors were enrolled. Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of xentuzumab/ everolimus/exemestane were determined in phase I (single-arm, dose-escalation). In phase II (open-label), patients were randomised 1:1 to the RP2D of xentuzumab/everolimus/exemestane or everolimus/exemestane alone. Randomisation was stratified by the presence of visceral metastases. Primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS).

    ANALYSIS OF AGREEMENT CONTAINING CONSENT ORDERS TO AID PUBLIC COMMENT In the Matter of Johnson & Johnson and Pfizer Inc. File No. 061-0220, Docket No. C-4180 I. Introduction The Federal Trade Commission (“Commission”) has accepted, subject to final approval, an Agreement Containing Consent Orders (“Consent Agreement”) from Johnson & Johnson (“J&J”) and Pfizer Inc. (“Pfizer”), which is designed to remedy the anticompetitive effects that would otherwise result from J&J’s proposed acquisition of Pfizer Consumer Healthcare. Under the terms of the proposed Consent Agreement, the parties will be required to divest: (1) Pfizer’s Zantac® H-2 blocker business; (2) Pfizer’s Cortizone® hydrocortisone anti-itch business; (3) Pfizer’s Unisom® nighttime sleep-aid business; and (4) J&J’s Balmex® diaper rash treatment business. The proposed Consent Agreement has been placed on the public record for thirty (30) days for receipt of comments by interested persons. Comments received during this period will become part of the public record. After thirty (30) days, the Commission will again review the proposed Consent Agreement and will decide whether it should withdraw from the proposed Consent Agreement, modify it, or make final the Decision and Order (“Order”). Pursuant to a Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement dated June 25, 2006, J&J proposes to acquire certain voting securities and assets comprising Pfizer’s Consumer Healthcare business in a transaction valued at approximately $16.6 billion (“Proposed Acquisition”). The Commission’s complaint alleges that the Proposed Acquisition, if consummated, would violate Section 7 of the Clayton Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C.
