Praluent® (Alirocumab) Praluent® (alirocumab) – New orphan indication • On April 1, 2021, the FDA approved Regeneron’s Praluent (alirocumab), as an adjunct to other low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)-lowering therapies in adult patients with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH) to reduce LDL-C. • Praluent is also approved: — To reduce the risk of myocardial infarction, stroke, and unstable angina requiring hospitalization in adults with established cardiovascular disease. — As an adjunct to diet, alone or in combination with other LDL-C-lowering therapies, in adults with primary hyperlipidemia, including heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH), to reduce LDL-C. • The approval of Praluent for the new indication was based on ODYSSEY HoFH, a double-blind, placebo-controlled study in 45 adult patients with HoFH. Patients were taking maximally tolerated doses of statins with or without other lipid-lowering therapy and required additional LDL-C reduction. Patients were randomized to Praluent or placebo. — At week 12, the treatment difference between Praluent and placebo in mean LDL-C percent change from baseline was -36% (95% CI: -51, -20; p < 0.0001). • The recommended dose of Praluent for the treatment of HoFH is 150 mg once every 2 weeks administered subcutaneously. — LDL-C should be assessed when clinically appropriate. The LDL-lowering effect of Praluent may be measured as early as 4 weeks after initiation. — Refer to the Praluent drug label for dosing for its other indications optumrx.com ® OptumRx specializes in the delivery, clinical management and affordability of prescription medications and consumer health products. ® We are an Optum company — a leading provider of integrated health services.

McGovern, Ph.D., ODE Associate Director for Pharmacology and Toxicology, OND IO BLA: 125559 Agency receipt date: November 24, 2014 Drug: PRALUENT (alirocumab) Sponsor: Sanofi-Aventis U.S. LLC Indication: Adult patients with primary hypercholesterolemia (non-familial and heterozygous familial) or mixed dyslipidemia Reviewing Division: Division of Metabolism and Endocrinology Products Introductory Comments: The pharmacology/toxicology reviewer and supervisor concluded that the nonclinical data support approval of PRALUENT (alirocumab) for the indication listed above. Alirocumab is a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody that binds to human PCSK9 (Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin Kexin Type 9). The recommended Established Pharmacologic Class for alirocumab is PCSK9 inhibitor antibody. There are no approved products in this class currently. An appropriate nonclinical program was conducted by the sponsor to support approval of alirocumab. Alirocumab elicited expected pharmacological responses in rats, hamsters, and monkeys; alirocumab lowered total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol in the species tested and decreased HDL-cholesterol in rats and hamsters. The primary nonclinical toxicity studies of alirocumab were conducted in rats and monkeys for up to 6 months duration with weekly subcutaneous and intravenous dosing. No significant adverse findings were observed at the doses tested which achieved exposure multiples up to 11-fold in rats and 103-fold in monkeys compared to the maximum recommended human dose of 150 mg alirocumab administered subcutaneously once every two weeks. Findings in the liver and adrenal glands of rats were associated with exaggerated pharmacologic effects.

  • Lipid-Lowering Therapy and Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol
    Kristensen et al. BMC Cardiovascular Disorders (2020) 20:336 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12872-020-01616-9 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Lipid-lowering therapy and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol goal attainment after acute coronary syndrome: a Danish population-based cohort study Marie Skov Kristensen1, Anders Green2,3, Mads Nybo4, Simone Møller Hede2, Kristian Handberg Mikkelsen5, Gunnar Gislason1,6,7,8, Mogens Lytken Larsen9 and Annette Kjær Ersbøll1* Abstract Background: Patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) are at high risk of recurrent cardiovascular (CV) event. The European guidelines recommend low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels < 1.8 mmol/L and early initiation of intensive lipid-lowering therapy (LLT) to reduce CV risk. In order to reduce the risk of further cardiac events, the study aimed to evaluate LDL-C goal attainment and LLT intensity in an incident ACS population. Methods: A cohort study of patients with residency at Funen in Denmark at a first-ever ACS event registered within the period 2010–2015. Information on LLT use and LDL-C levels was extracted from national population registers and a Laboratory database at Odense University Hospital. Treatments and lipid patterns were evaluated during index hospitalization, at 6-month and 12-month follow-up. Results: Among 3040 patients with an LDL-C measurement during index hospitalization, 40.7 and 39.0% attained the recommended LDL-C target value (< 1.8 mmol/L) within 6- and 12-month follow-up, respectively. During 6- and 12-month follow-up, a total of 89.2% (20.2%) and 88.4% (29.7%) used LLT (intensive LLT).

  • Effect of Alirocumab on Individuals with Type 2 Diabetes, High
    Colhoun et al. Cardiovasc Diabetol (2020) 19:14 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12933-020-0991-1 Cardiovascular Diabetology ORIGINAL INVESTIGATION Open Access Efect of alirocumab on individuals with type 2 diabetes, high triglycerides, and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol Helen M. Colhoun1*, Lawrence A. Leiter2, Dirk Müller‑Wieland3, Bertrand Cariou4, Kausik K. Ray5, Francisco J. Tinahones6, Catherine Domenger7, Alexia Letierce8, Marc Israel9, Rita Samuel9 and Stefano Del Prato10 Abstract Background: Mixed dyslipidemia [elevated non‑high‑density lipoprotein cholesterol (non‑HDL‑C) and triglycerides (TGs), and decreased HDL‑C] is common in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and is associated with increased cardio‑ vascular risk. Non‑HDL‑C and apolipoprotein B (ApoB) are the preferred therapeutic targets for mixed dyslipidemia. Alirocumab is a monoclonal antibody to proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) that efectively reduces low‑density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL‑C), non‑HDL‑C, ApoB, and lipoprotein(a) (Lp[a]), and is well‑tolerated in indi‑ viduals with T2DM. Methods: The previously reported open‑label ODYSSEY DM‑DYSLIPIDEMIA trial data demonstrated the efects of alirocumab on individuals with non‐HDL‑C 100 mg/dL and TGs 150 and < 500 mg/dL receiving stable maximally tolerated statin (n 413). This post hoc subgroup≥ analysis of the primary≥ trial investigated the efects of alirocumab [75 mg every 2 weeks= (Q2W) with possible increase to 150 mg Q2W at Week 12] versus usual care [ezetimibe, fenof‑ brate, or no additional lipid‑lowering therapy (LLT)] on non‑HDL‑C and other lipids in individuals with T2DM and baseline TGs 200 mg/dL and HDL‑C < 40 mg/dL (men) or < 50 mg/dL (women).

  • PRALUENT (Alirocumab) RATIONALE for INCLUSION in PA PROGRAM
    PRALUENT (alirocumab) RATIONALE FOR INCLUSION IN PA PROGRAM Background Praluent (alirocumab) is a human monoclonal antibody that binds to proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 (PCSK9). PCSK9 binds to the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) receptors (LDLR) on the surface of hepatocytes to promote LDLR degradation within the liver. By blocking PCSK9’s ability to work, more receptors are available to clear LDL cholesterol from the blood, thereby lowering LDL cholesterol levels (1). Regulatory Status FDA-approved indications: Praluent is a PCSK9 (Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin Kexin Type 9) inhibitor indicated: (1) • To reduce the risk of myocardial infarction, stroke, and unstable angina requiring hospitalization in adults with established cardiovascular disease. • As adjunct to diet, alone or in combination with other low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)-lowering therapies, in adults with primary hyperlipidemia, including heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH), to reduce LDL-C. As an adjunct to other LDL-C-lowering therapies in adult patients with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH) to reduce LDL-C. Physicians often measure creatine kinase (CK) in patients about to begin statins or already on statins. CK is an enzyme that leaks out of damaged muscle. Many physicians will not start or continue statins to lower LDL-C in asymptomatic patients with high CK because of concern regarding possible statin-induced myositis-rhabdomyolysis. High pretreatment CK, predominantly 1 to 5 times the upper normal limit (UNL), should not be an impediment to start or continue statins to lower LDL-C (2). Spectrum of statin-associated muscle adverse events: (3) 1. Myalgia: unexplained muscle discomfort often described as ‘‘flu-like’’ symptoms with normal CK level.
