`
`Darunavir ethanolate is a white to off—white powder with a solubility of approximately
`0.15 mg/mL in water at 20°C.
`
`PREZISTA is available as an orange, oval—shaped, film—coated tablet for oral administration.
`Each tablet contains darunavir ethanolate equivalent to 300 mg of darunavir. Each tablet also
`contains the inactive ingredients colloidal silicon dioxide, crospovidone, magnesium stearate,
`and microcrystalline cellulose. The tablet film coating, OPADRY® Orange, contains FD&C
`Yellow No. 6, polyethylene glycol 3350, polyvinyl alcohol—partially hydrolyzed,
`talc, and
`titanium dioxide.
`
`All dosages for PREZISTA are expressed in terms of the free form of darunavir.
`
`MICROBIOLOGY
`
`Mechanism ofA ction
`
`Darunavir is an inhibitor of the HIV—1 protease. It selectivelyinhibits the cleavage of HIV
`encoded Gag—Pol polyproteins in infected cells, thereby preventing the formation of mature virus
`particles.
`
`
`
`Antiviral Activity
`
`isolates of HIV—1 and
`laboratory strains and clinical
`Darunavir exhibits activity against
`laboratory strains of HIV-2 in acutely infected T—cell lines, human peripheral blOOd mononuclear
`cells and human monoCytes/macrophages with median EC50 values ranging from 1.2 to 8.5 nM
`(0.7 to 5.0 ng/mL). Darunavir demonstrates antiviral activity in cell culture against a broad panel
`of HIV—1 group M (A, B, C, D, E, F, G), and group 0 primary isolates with EC50 values ranging
`from < 0.1 to 4.3 nM. The EC50 value of darunavir increases by a median factor of 5.4 in the
`presence of human serum. Darunavir did not show antagonism when studied in combination with
`the protease inhibitors amprenavir, atazanavir,
`indinavir,
`lopinavir, nelfinavir,
`ritonavir,
`saquinavir, or
`tipranavir,
`the N(t)RT1s abacavir, didanosine, emtricitabine,
`lamivudine,
`stavudine,
`tenofovir, zalcitabine, or zidovudine,
`the NNRTls delavirdine, efavirenz, or
`nevirapine, and the fusion inhibitor enfuvirtide.
`
`Resistance
`
`Cell Culture: HIV—l isolates with a decreased susceptibility to darunavir have been selected in
`cell culture and obtained from subjects treated with darunavir/Iitonavir. Darunavir-resistant virus
`derived in cell culture from wild—type HIV had 6— to 21—fold decreased susceptibility to darunavir
`and harbored 3 to 6 of the following amino acid substitutions S37N/D, R41E/S/T, K55Q, K70E,
`A71T, T74S, V771, or 185V in the protease. Selection in cell culture of darunavir resistant HIV-1
`from nine HIV-1 strains harboring multiple protease inhibitor resistance-associated mutations
`resulted in the overall emergence of 22 mutations in the protease gene, including L10F, V111,
`113V, 115V, G16E, L231, V321, L33F, S37N, M461, I47V, 150V, F53L, L63P, A71V, G73S,
`L76V, V821, 184V, T91A/S, and Q92R, of which L10F, V321, L33F, S37N, M461, I47V, 150V,
`L63P, A71V, and 184V were the most prevalent. These darunavir—resistant viruses had at least
`eight protease mutations and exhibited 50- to 641 -fold decreasesin darunavir susceptibility with
`final EC50 values ranging from 125 nM to 3461 nM.
`
`Clinical studies of darunavir/ritonavir in treatment—experienced subjects
`
`In the Phase 2b Studies TMC114—C213 and TMC114-C202 and the TMC114—C215/C208
`
`analysis, multiple protease inhibitor—resistant HIV-1 isolates from highly treatment—experienced
`subjects who received PREZISTA/rtv 600/100 mg b.i.d. and experienced virologic failure, either
`by rebound, or by never being suppressed, developed amino acid substitutions that were
`associated with a decrease in susceptibility to darunavir. The amino acid substitution V321
`developed on PREZISTA/rtv 600/ 100 mg b.i.d. in greater than 30% of virologic failure isolates
`and substitutions at amino acid position 154 developed in greater than 20% of virologic failure
`isolates. Other substitutions that developed in 10% to 20% of PREZISTA/rtv virologic failure
`isolates occurred at amino acid positions 115, L33, I47, G73 and L89. The median darunavir
`phenotype (fold change from reference) of the virologic failure isolates was 21—fold at baseline
`and 94—fold at failure. Amino acid substitutions were also observed in the protease cleavage sites
`of some darunavir virologic failure isolates. The resistance profile in treatment—naive subjects
`has not been characterized.
`
`
`
`Cross—resistance
`
`Cross—resistance among protease inhibitors has been observed. Darunavir has a <10—fold
`decreased susceptibility in cell culture against 90% of 3309 clinical
`isolates resistant
`to
`amprenavir, atazanavir,
`indinavir, lopinavir, nelfinavir, ritonavir, saquinavir and/or tipranavir
`showing that viruses resistant to these protease inhibitors remain susceptible to darunavir. In
`Studies TMC114—C213 and TMC114—C202 and the TMC114—C215/C208 analysis, 60% (88/147)
`of subjects on darunavir/rtv whose baseline isolates had decreased susceptibility to tipranavir
`(tipranavir fold change > 3) demonstrated a decrease of 2 1 logo in viral load at week 24, and
`36% (53/147) achieved < 50 copies/mL plasma HIV RNA levels.
`
`Darunavir-resistant viruses were not susceptible to amprenavir, atazanavir, indinavir, lopinavir,
`nelfinavir, iitonavir or saquinavir in cell culture. However, six of nine darunavir—resistant viruses
`selected in cell culture from protease inhibitor—resistant viruses showed a fold change in EC50
`values < 3 for tipranavir, indicative of limited cross—resistance between darunavir and tipranavir.
`Of the viruses isolated from subjects experiencing virologic failure on darunavir/ritonavir
`600/100 mg b.i.d., greater than 50% were still susceptible to tipranavir while less than 5% were
`susceptible to other protease inhibitors (amprenavir, atazanavir, indinavir, lopinavir, nelfinavir,
`ritonavir, or saquinavir).

`conducted to evaluate the impact of specific baseline protease inhibitor resistance—associated
`mutations and the number of protease inhibitor resistance-associated mutations at baseline on
`virologic response. Both specific mutations and the number of baseline mutations, as well as
`susceptible drugs

`PREZISTA/rtv response rates in Phase 2b Studies TMC114—C213 and TMC114—C202.
`
`The presence at baseline of the mutations V321, I47V, or 154L or M, was associated with a
`decreased virologic response to darunavir and decreased susceptibility to darunavir. In addition,
`
`a diminished virologic response was observed in subjects with 2 7 protease inhibitor resistance—
`associated mutations (any change at amino acid positions 30, 32, 36, 46, 47, 48, 50, 53, 54, 73,
`82, 84, 88, or 90) at baseline (see Table 1). In a supportive analysis of Studies TMC114-C213
`and TMC114-C202 and the TMCI l4-C215/C208 analysis, the presence at baseline of three or
`more of the mutations V111, V321, L33F, 147V, ‘150V, 154L or M, G738, L76V, I84V or L89V
`
`was associated with a decreased virologic response to PREZISTA/rtv (the proportion of subjects
`achieving viral load < 50 plasma HIV RNA copies/mL at week 24 was 50%, 22% and 10% when
`the baseline genotype had 0—2, 3 and 24 of these mutations, respectively). Conclusions regarding

`CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
`
`Pharmacokinetics in Adults
`
`The pharmacokinetics of darunavir, co-administered with low dose ritonavir (100 mg twice
`daily), have been evaluated in healthy adult volunteers and in HIV—1 infected subjects. Table 3
`displays the population pharmacokinetic estimates of darunavir from an analysis of integrated
`data from Studies TMC114—C213 and TMCl 14—C202 of 119 subjects administered the
`darunavir/ritonavir 600/100 mg b.i.d. dose. Darunavir is primarily metabolized by CYP3A.
`Ritonavir inhibits CYP3A, thereby increasing the plasma concentrations of darunavir. When a
`single dose of 600 mg darunavir was given orally in combination with 100 mg ritonavir b.i.d.,
`there was an approximate 14—fold increase in the systemic exposure bf darunavir. Therefore,
`PREZISTA should only be used in combination with 100 mg of ritonavir to achieve sufficient
`exposures of darunavir.

`
`Darunavir
`
`Absorptzbn and Bioavailability: Darunavir, co—administered with 100 mg ritonavir twice daily,
`was absorbed following oral administration with a Tmax of approximately 2.54 hours. The
`absolute oral bioavailability of a single 600 mg dose of darunavir alone and after
`co—
`administration with 100 mg ritonavir twice daily was 37% and 82%, respectively.
`
`the Cmax and AUC of
`Eflects of Food on Oral Absorption: When administered with food,
`darunavir, co—administered with ritonavir, is approximately 30% higher relative to the fasting
`state. Therefore, PREZISTA tablets, co—administered with ritonavir, should always be taken with
`food. Within the range of meals studied, darunavir exposure is similar. The total caloric content
`of the various meals evaluated ranged from 240 Kcal (12 gms fat) to 928 Kcal (56 gms fat).
`
`Distribution: Darunavir is approximately 95% bound to plasma proteins. Darunavir binds
`primarily to plasma alpha l-acid glycoprotein (AAG).
`
`Metabolism: In vitro experiments with human liver microsomes (HLMs) indicate that darunavir
`primarily undergoes oxidative metabolism. Darunavir is extensively metabolized by CYP
`enzymes, primarily by CYP3A. A mass balance study in healthy volunteers showed, that after a
`single dose administration of 400 mg MC—darunavir, co-administered with 100 mg ritonavir, the
`
`
`
`majority of the radioactivity in the plasma was due to darunavir. At least 3 oxidative metabolites
`of darunavir have been identified in humans; all showed activity that was at least 90% less than
`the activity of darunavir against wild-type HIV.
`
`Elimination: A mass balance study in healthy volunteers showed that after single dose
`administration of 400 mg l4C-darunavir, co—administered with 100 mg ritonavir, approximately
`79.5% and 13.9% of the administered dose of 14C-darunavir was recovered in the feces and
`
`urine, respectively. Unchanged darunavir accounted for approximately 41.2% and 7.7% of the
`administered dose in feces and urine, respectively. The terminal elimination half-life of darunavir
`was approximately 15 hours when combined with ritonavir. After intravenous administration, the
`clearance of darunavir, administered alone and co—administered with 100 mg twice daily
`ritonavir, was 32.8 L/h and 5.9 L/h, respectively.
`
`Special Populations
`
`Hepatic Impairment: Darunavir primarily undergoes hepaticmetabolism. PREZISTA has not
`been studied in patients with varying degrees of hepatic impairment (see PRECAUTIONS,
`Patients with
`co-existing
`conditions, Hepatic
`Impairment
`and DOSAGE AND
`ADMINISTRATION).
`
`Hepatitis B or Hepatitis C Virus Co-infection: The primary 24—week analysis of the data from
`Study TMCl l4—C213 in 31 HIV—1 infected subjects indicated that hepatitis B and/or hepatitis C
`virus co—infection status had no apparent effect on the exposure of darunavir.
`
`Renal Impairment: Results from a mass balance study with l4C-darunavir/ritonavir showed that
`approximately 7.7% of the administered dose of darunavir is excreted in the urine as unchanged
`drug. As darunavir and ritonavir are highly bound to plasma proteins, it is unlikely that they will
`be significantly removed by hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis. Population pharmacokinetic
`analysis showed that the pharmacokinetics of darunavir were not significantly affected in HIV
`infected subjects with moderate renal impairment (CrCL between 30—60 mL/min, n=20). There
`are no pharmacokinetic data available in HIV-1 infected patients with severe renal impairment or
`end stage renal disease: (see PRECAUTIONS, Patients with co-existing conditions, Renal
`Impairment, and DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION).
`
`Gender: Population pharmacokinetic analysis showed higher mean darunavir exposure (16.8%)
`in HIV infected females (n=68) compared to males. This difference is not clinically relevant.
`
`Race: Population pharmacokinetic analysis of darunavir in HIV infected subjects indicated that
`race had no apparent effect on the exposure to darunavir. _
`
`Geriatric Patients: Population pharmacokinetic analysis in HIV infected subjects showed that
`darunavir pharmacokinetics are not considerably different in the age range (18 to 75 years)
`evaluated in HIV infected subjects (n=1 2, age 2 65) (see PRECAUTIONS, Geriatric Use).
`
`Pediatric Patients: The pharmacokinetics of darunavir in combination with ritonavir in pediatric
`patients has not been established. There' are insufficient data at this time to recommend a dose.
`
`
`
`Drug Interactions: See also CONTRAINDICA TIONS, WARNINGS, and PRECA UTIONS, Drug
`Interactions.
`
`Darunavir and ritonavir are both inhibitors of CYP3A. Co—administration of darunavir and
`
`in increased plasma
`ritonavir with drugs primarily metabolized by CYP3A may result
`concentrations of such drugs, which could increase orprolong their therapeutic effect and
`adverse events (see sections CONTRAINDICATIONS, WARNINGS, and PRECAUTIONS,
`Drug Interactions).
`
`Darunavir and ritonavir are metabolized by CYP3A. Drugs that induce CYP3A activity would
`be expected to increase the clearance of darunavir and ritonavir, resulting in lowered plasma
`concentrations of darunavir and ritonavir. Co—administration of darunavir and ritonavir and other
`
`drugs that inhibit CYP3A may decrease the clearance of darunavir and ritonavir and may result
`in increased plasma concentrations of darunavir and ritonavir.
`
`_
`
`Drug interaction studies were performed with darunavir and other drugs likely to be co—
`administered and some drugs commonly used as probes for pharmacokinetic interactions. The
`effects of co—administration of darunavir on the AUC, Cmax, and Cmin values are summarized in
`Table 4 (effect of other drugs on darunavir) and Table 5 (effect of darunavir on other drugs). For
`information regarding clinical recommendations, see PRECAUTIONS, Drug Interactions.

`INDICATIONS AND USAGE
`
`and with other
`(PREZISTA/rtv),
`100 mg ritonavir
`co—administered with
`PREZISTA,
`antiretroviral agents,
`is indicated for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
`infection in antiretroviral treatment-experienced adult patients, such as those with HIV—1 strains
`resistant to more than one protease inhibitor.
`
`This indication is based on Week 24 analyses of plasma HIV RNA levels and CD4+ cell counts
`from 2 controlled trials of PREZISTA/rtv in combination with other antiretroviral drugs. Both
`studies were conducted in clinically advanced, treatment—experienced (NRTIs, NNRTIs, and P15)
`adult patients with evidence of HIV—1 replication despite ongoing antiretroviral therapy.
`
`The following points should be considered when initiating therapy with PREZISTA/rtv:
`
`0 Treatment history and, when available, genotypic or phenotypic testing, should guide the
`use of PREZISTA/rtv (see MICROBIOLOGY).
`
`o The use of other active agents with PREZISTA/rtv is associated with a greater likelihood
`of treatment response (see MICROBIOLOGY and INDICATIONS AND USAGE,
`Description of Clinical Studies).
`
`0 The risks and benefits of PREZISTA/rtv have not been established in treatment-naive
`
`adult patients or pediatric patients.
`
`-
`
`Description of Clinical Studies
`
`The evidence of efficacy of PREZISTA/rtv is based on the analyses of 24—week data from
`2 ongoing, randomized, controlled trials, TMCll4—C213 and TMC114—C202,
`in antiretroviral
`treatment—experienced HIV—1 infected adult subjects. These efficacy results were supported by
`the 24-week pooled analysis of the open label trials TMCll4—C215 and TMCll4-C208 of
`subjects who initiated PREZISTA/rtv at the recommended dose.
`
`Treatment-Experienced Subjects:
`
`Studies TMC114—C213 and TMC114—C202: These are ongoing randomized, controlled, Phase 2b
`trials consisting of 2 parts: an initial partially—blinded, dose-finding part and a second long-term
`part in which all subjects randomized to PREZISTA/rtv received the recommended dose of
`600/100 mg b.i.d.
`
`these trials had plasma HIV—1 RNA
`infected subjects who were eligible for
`HIV—l
`> 1000 copies/mL, had prior treatment with PI(s), NNRTI(s) and NRTI(s), had at
`least one
`primary PI mutation (D3ON, M46I/L, G48V, ISOL/V, V82A/F/S/T, 184V, L90M) at screening,
`and were on a stable Pl—containing regimen at screening for at least 8 weeks. Randomization was
`stratified by the-number of PI mutations, screening viral
`load, and the use of 'enfiivirtide.
`
`
`
`Analyses included 318 subjects in Study TMC114—C213 and 319 subjects in Study TMC114—
`C202 who had completed 24 weeks of treatment or discontinued earlier.
`
`At 24 weeks, the Virologic response rate was evaluated in subjects receiving PREZISTA/rtv plus
`an optimized background regimen (0BR) versus a control group receiving an investigator—
`selected Pl(s) regimen plus an 0BR. Prior to randomization, Pl(s) and 0BR were selected by the
`investigator based on genotypic resistance testing and prior ARV history. The OBR consisted of
`at
`least 2 NRTIs with or without enfuvirtide. Selected Pl(s) in the control arm included:
`lopinavir/ritonavir in 36%, (fos)amprenavir in 34%, saquinavir in 35% and atazanavir in 17%;
`23% of the control subjects used dual-boosted PIs. Approximately 47% of all subjects used
`enfuvirtide, and 35% of the use was in subjects who were ENF—na’i've. Virologic response was
`defined as a decrease in plasma HIV—1 RNA viral load of at least 1.0 logic versus baseline.
`
`In the pooled analysis for TMC114-C213 andvTMC114-C202, demographics and baseline
`characteristics were balanced between the PREZISTA/rtv arm and the comparator PI arm.
`Table6 compares the demographic characteristics between subjects in the PREZISTA/Itv

`WARNINGS
`
`ALERT: Find out about medicines that should not be taken with PREZISTA/rtv. This
`
`statement is included on the product’s bottle label.
`
`General
`
`-
`
`PREZISTA (darunavir) must be co-administered with ritonavir and food to exert its therapeutic
`effect (see DOSAGE and ADMINISTRATION). Failure to correctly administer PREZISTA with
`ritonavir and food will result
`in reduced plasma concentrations of darunavir that will be
`insufficient to achieve the desired antiviral effect.
`
`Please refer to ritonavir prescribing information for additional
`measures.

`
`Skin Rash
`
`During the clinical development program, severe skin rash, including erythema multiforrne and
`Stevens—Johnson Syndrome, has been reported.
`In some cases,
`fever and elevations of
`transaminases have also been reported. In clinical trials (n=924), rash (all grades, regardless of
`causality) occurred in 7% of subjects treated with PREZISTA; the discontinuation rate due to
`rash was 0.3%. Rashes were
