Laboratories received approval for their NDA, ELYXYB
solution) 25 mg/mL, in the U.S.
Hyderabad, India and Princeton, NJ,
USA., May 6, 2020 - Dr. Reddy's Laboratories Ltd. (BSE: 500124, NSE: DRREDDY, NYSE: RDY, along with its subsidiaries together
referred to as "Dr. Reddy's") today announced approval of ELYXYB (celecoxib oral solution 25 mg/mL) by the U.S.
Food and Drug Administration (USFDA). ELYXYB (previously known as DFN-15) is indicated for the acute treatment of migraine with
or without aura in adults. ELYXYB is the latest product emerging from Dr. Reddy's portfolio of successful acute migraine
treatments. The company is working to commercialize this product through partners.
Erez Israeli, CEO of Dr. Reddy's Laboratories, commented,
"We are excited about the approval of ELYXYB. It reaffirms our commitment to innovation and to develop meaningfully differentiated
products that address significant unmet needs of patients and physicians, leading to better health outcomes."
According to Anil Namboodiripad, PhD, Sr. Vice President of
the Proprietary Products Group, Dr. Reddy's Laboratories, "ELYXYB is an oral solution of celecoxib formulated using
a self-micro emulsifying drug delivery system that improves solubility and bioavailability of the drug leading to better absorption1.
This allows for administration of a lower dose without affecting bioavailability. In pivotal studies, ELYXYB demonstrated a rapid
onset of action which is critically important to patients suffering from acute migraine attacks. The results from pivotal studies
with ELYXYB established efficacy of celecoxib in the treatment of migraine with very few adverse events. For patients who suffer
from the debilitating and disruptive effects of migraine, there continues to be a need for reliable and efficacious treatment options.
ELYXYB's oral solution dosage form makes it convenient for patients to take it immediately upon emergence of migraine attacks."
INDICATION AND USAGE
ELYXYB is indicated in adults for the acute treatment of migraine
with or without aura.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION:
RISK OF SERIOUS CARDIOVASCULAR AND GASTROINTESTINAL EVENTS
Cardiovascular Thrombotic Events
Gastrointestinal Bleeding, Ulceration, and Perforation
ELYXB is contraindicated in patients with:
To minimize the potential risk for an adverse cardiovascular
(CV) event in NSAID-treated patients, use ELYXYB for the fewest number of days per month as needed, based on individual treatment
goals. Physicians and patients should remain alert for the development of such events, throughout the entire treatment course,
even in the absence of previous CV symptoms. Patients should be informed about the symptoms of serious CV events and the steps
to take if they occur.
Avoid the use of ELYXYB in patients with a recent myocardial
infarction (MI) unless the benefits are expected to outweigh the risk of recurrent CV thrombotic events. If ELYXYB is used in patients
with a recent MI, monitor patients for signs of cardiac ischemia.
NSAIDs, including ELYXYB, can cause serious gastrointestinal
(GI) adverse events including inflammation, bleeding, ulceration, and perforation of the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, or
large intestine, which can be fatal. These serious adverse events can occur at any time, with or without warning symptoms, in patients
treated with celecoxib. Only one in five patients who develop a serious upper GI adverse event on NSAID therapy is symptomatic.
Upper GI ulcers, gross bleeding, or perforation caused by NSAIDs occurred in approximately 1% of patients treated for 3 to 6 months,
and in about 2% to 4% of patients treated for one year. However, even short-term NSAID therapy is not without risk.
Avoid the use of ELYXYB in patients with severe heart failure
unless the benefits are expected to outweigh the risk of worsening heart failure. If ELYXYB is used in patients with severe heart
failure, monitor patients for signs of worsening heart failure.
Elevations of ALT or AST (less than three times ULN) may occur
in up to 15% of patients treated with NSAIDs, including ELYXYB.
Long-term administration of NSAIDs, including celecoxib, the
active ingredient in ELYXYB, has resulted in renal papillary necrosis and other renal injury.
No information is available from controlled clinical studies
regarding the use of celecoxib in patients with severe renal impairment. The renal effects of celecoxib may hasten the progression
of renal dysfunction in patients with preexisting renal disease.
Overuse of acute migraine drugs (e.g., ergotamine, triptans,
opioids, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or combination of these drugs for 10 or more days per month), including ELYXYB, may
lead to exacerbation of headache (medication overuse headache). Medication overuse headache may present as migraine-like daily
headaches or as a marked increase in frequency of migraine attacks. Detoxification of patients, including withdrawal of the overused
drugs and treatment of withdrawal symptoms (which often includes a transient worsening of headache) may be necessary.
NSAIDs, including ELYXYB, may increase the risk of bleeding
events. Co-morbid conditions such as coagulation disorders or concomitant use of warfarin, other anticoagulants, antiplatelet drugs
(e.g., aspirin), SSRIs, and serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) may increase this risk.
Most common adverse reaction (at least 3% and greater than placebo)
These are not all the side effects associated with ELYXYB.
Please see Patient Information, Instructions For Use, Medication
Guide and Full Prescribing Information for ELYXYB.
You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription
drugs. To report SUSPECTED SIDE EFFECTS, call Promius Pharma at 1-888-966-8766 or contact the FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 (1-800-332-1088)
