`EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
`
`. _ _
`
`The sponsor has previded a summary of published and unpublished literature
`that makes a persuasive case for the usefulness and need of Risperdal Consta.
`The safety data updated in this submission is similar to that of the original NDA
`for Risperdal Consta. No new pattern of events was uncovered that would alter
`the risk/benefit profile of Risperdal Consta as pesented in the original NDA. From
`a clinical viewpoint | recommend that Risperdai Consta be approved.
`
`I . REVIEW:
`
`BACKGROUND
`
`Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research 8. Development (JaJPRD),
`submitted a New Drug Application for RlSPERDAL CONSTA (NDA 21-346). a
`long-acting injection formulation of risperidone, in the treatment of schizophrenia
`On August 31, 2001.
`
`The Division of Neuropharmacological Drug Products (DNDP) notified
`J&JPRD on June 28, 2002 that the application for RlSPERDAL CONSTA
`was not approvable under Section 505(d) of the Act and 21 CFR 314.125(b).
`Three Pharmacology/Toxicology deficiencies were cited in the letter as the
`primary factors influencing the decision by the Division to not approve NDA 21-
`346: (1) differences in the tumor profiles in the 24-month carcinogenicity studies
`with RlSPERDAL CONSTA and RlSPERDAL tablets; (2) no reproductive
`toxicology studies with RlSPERDAL CONSTA; and (3) no data to support that
`impurities
`“
`were qualified in the oral nonclinical studies.
`The Division elaborated further by concluding. “These findings would preclude
`approval of this application in the absence of any demonstration of a ciinical
`advantage of this product".
`
`J&JPRD met with DNDP on July 26. 2002 to discuss plans to address each
`of the pharmacology/toxicology issues cited in the Action Letter and to
`initiate discussion regarding the clinicai benefit of RISPERDAL CONSTA
`J&JPRD again met with DNDP on February 25, 2003 to discuss plans for the
`complete response to the Action Letter. Three main topics were discussed at
`the meeting: (1) the potentia! clinical benefit of a long-acting intramuscular (IM)
`formulation of an atypical antipsychotic; (2) nonclinical studies that would be
`submitted in the complete response to address pharmacology/toxicology issues
`raised in the Action Letter; and (3) plans to conduct an embryofetal toxicity study
`with RlSPERDAL CONSTA.
`
`Following a presentation of the potential clinical benefit of RlSPERDAL
`CONSTA, the Division agreed that there is a potential clinical benefit of a
`depot atypical antipsychotic and suggested that the complete response should
`contain a detailed review 6f the existing data for IM depot and oral
`formulations that make a compelling argument for improved compliance and
`
`3
`
`IPR Page 4
`
`IPR Page 4
`
`

`

`decreased relapse of psychotic symptoms with depot antipsychotics. The
`Division further agreed to consider approving RISPERDAL CONSTA
`without a complete resolution of the carcinogenicity findings in rat if the
`data demonstrate that the M depot formulation provides clinical benefit.
`J&JPRD provided alist of nonclinicai studies that would be included in the
`complete response to address the pharmacology/toxicology deficiencies cited
`in the Action Letter. In addition to these studies. the Division requested
`summary and individual data listings for the incidence of adrenomedullary
`findings (including adrenal pheochromocytoma) from the oral
`carcinogenicity study in rat. The Division noted that if J&JPRD proposed
`strain or substrain differences as an explanation for the differences in tumor
`profiles between the oral and IM depot studies, it would be important to
`provide data by which to compare the relevance of each strain or substrain
`for assessing human risk.
`
`At the February 25, 2003 meeting, the Division stated their position that the
`complete study report for the IM depot embryofetal developmental toxicity
`study should be submitted to NBA 21-346 prior to approval. However, the
`Division agreed to consider the potential for a clinical benefit when making a
`decision as to the need for the embryofetal developmental toxicity study
`prior to approval. The Division further agreed to continue discussions related
`to the design of the embryofetal toxicity study at a later time.
`
`At a teleconference held on March 25, 2003 with J&JPRD and Dr. Lois
`Freed. Pharmacology/'l'oxicoiogy Reviewer for DNDP, the following
`agreements were reached on the design of the embryofetal toxicity study:
`
`-Dr. Freed agreed that the 80 mglkg dose was too high because it
`impairs mating, and suggested that J&JPRD consider a dose
`between 20 mglkg and 80 mg/kg. An additional dose-ranging
`study will be conducted to evaluate possible higher doses than
`20 mg/kg.
`‘
`
`-A third dose (below 20 mg/kg) group will be added to the study.
`
`-An oral treatment group is required to provide a reference to the
`previous study with RISPERDAL. tablets (NDA 20-272). in addition to
`agreements reached on the design of the study. J&JPRD agreed to include a
`proposal in the complete response regarding the timing of the submission of the
`embryofetal toxicity study.
`
`Organization of the Response to the Action Letter‘
`
`This document contains the responses from J&JPRD to issues identified by
`DNDP in the Action LetterLgated June 29, 2002, for RISPERDAL
`CONSTA, (NDA 21-346, submitted August 31 ,' 2001). The organization

`
`Clinical response:
`
`We have previously acknowledged a clinical need for a long acting injectable
`form of risperidone. We asked the sponsor to summarize and provide
`documentation to support this belief. The sponsor supplies 64 research papers
`supporting their position. There are reference links to refer the reader to the
`literature papers that supportthe following points.
`l have included the references
`in the appendix to this review. Several papers are summarized below.
`
`Mentschel, Leucht, and Kane have recently completed an unpublished meta-
`analysis involving studies of at least 10 months in duration comparing long-acting
`v5 oral antipsychotics. Overall relapse rates on oral medications were 45%
`compared with 30% on depots, with an absolute risk reduction of 14% and a
`relative risk reductEOn of 32% (p=0.002). See studies beiow:

`Reviews of adherence suggest nonadherence rates of 26% with depot
`medication and nonadherence rates of 40 to 50% with oral medication. The use
`
`of long-acting injectable antipsychotics appears to increase adherence by
`between 10 and 40%. See below.

`Our undersiznding of depot neuralepfitcs has pmgressed

`i. Depot neurolepucs represent an attentive but likely

`United States.
`2. Depot Demolepiics offer distinct afivmmges associated
`with unavailability and titration of action. Yet, they also

`5. Depots appear equally effective in terms of clinical

`
`6. The conversion from oral to depot neurolepfics is not
`well established fur any of the depot nanoleptiu. and is
`Influenced, at least in part, by the recent trend towmls

`To this end, we need In expand our knowledge of depot
`ncumlepties. particularly in terms of pharmacokinetlcs.
`dosing and clinical demographics. In light of the
`development of newer oral neurolepties with atypical
`features. it will also be important to pursue the developmnl

`A recent unpublished meta-analysis found a 23% risk of relapse with first-
`generation medications compared with a 15% risk with second- generation
`medications (p=0.0001), Kane, JM et al
`
`Abstract:
`
`Objective: The objective was in perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of the
`
`pmnlial of the new generalion antipch drugs (NA) to improve adherence and
`
`decrease relapse was in patients with schizophrenia.
`
`Mm Randomizul, controlled trials comparing NA with placebo end/or conventional
`
`antipsychotics were identified. Dam on relapse. general We! failure and drop-outs
`
`due to adverse events were extracted, and combined in a meta-analysis. Mg; Pew
`
`trials were availabie for each individual drug. therefore NA were analyzed as a group in
`
`an exploitative manner. The panalysis of six pimebo comparisons. involving a total of 983
`
`patients. clearly demnstrated that NA are effective for relapse prevention. Eleven studies
`
`with a total of 2032 patients provided comparative data on mlapsduemmm failure for
`
`new and conventions: anlipnychnties. The analysis revealed a modest but slalisiicaliy
`
`significam reduction in relapse rates and overall nutrient failure with the new drugs.
`
`Whether this advantage was partly mediated by improved adherence no treatment remains
`
`unclear. No significant superiority in mm; of fewer dropouts due to adverse events was
`
`found. Funhcmiom. a number of methodological problems were identified. Conciusions:
`
`Overall, the currently available data suggest a potenlial for the new drugs to reduce
`
`relapse rates. Methodological issues to be addressed in future trials include the choice of
`
`comparator. appropriate dosage, the application of clinically-relevant relapse criteria.
`
`monitoring of adherence, and the minimization of drop-outs.

`
`
`l have reviewed all the papers and agree that the following sponsor supplied
`conclusions are a fair presentation of the literature.
`
`Relapse in schizophrenia is serious. Relapse is characterized not only
`by decreased social and vocational functioning and increased
`caregiver burden, but also by homelessness, self-harm (including
`suicide), and aggressive or violent behavior. Moreover, patients with
`frequent relapse may accumulate morbidity in the form of residual or
`persistent symptoms and decrements in function from their
`premorbid status.
`
`60% to 75% of patients with schizophrenia relapse within 1 to 2
`years without antipsychotic medication. The nonadherence rate with
`oral medications in schizophrenia is on average 42%.
`
`Continuous medication reduces the risk of relapse to 20 to 30%.
`
`Patients without gaps in medication therapy have 2 to 4 times less
`risk of rehospitalization.
`
`Patients with a :30-day gap in medication therapy have >4 times the
`risk of suicide attempts.
`
`Depot antipsychotic treatment, a method of attaining continuous
`medication, has been shown to reduce relapse rates and
`rehospitalization to a significant degree compared with treatment
`using oral antipsychotics.
`
`Only first-generation antipsychotics (haloperidol and fluphenazine)
`are available in depot formulations for those patients who can benefit
`from treatment with a long-acting injectable antipsychotic.
`
`Risperidone long-acting injectable has been shown to be an effective
`and well-tolerated antipsychotic medication in both short— and long-term
`heahnent
`
`They conclude that Risperidone is the only second-generation antipsychotic with
`a long-acting injectable form in late—stage development, and therefore represents
`a unique and significant addition to the treatment armamentarium of
`schizophrenia and an important means for improving treatment outcomes.
`
`It is my belief that Risperdal Consta would be a useful addition for the treatment
`of schizophrenia and persuasive data has been provided by the sponsor;

`
`
`studies completed after the 4—month Safety Update Report was derived from
`the finalized/locked clinical databases.
`
`The safety information for the ongoing extension studies came from the
`phannacovigilance database (CiOMS Narrative/line listings) for RISPERDAL
`CONSTA up to 25 March 2003. In addition, some specific analyses (i.e.,
`exposure and discontinuations due to adverse events) for the ongoing extension
`studies were determined from the unlocked clinical databases as of 16-18 March
`
`2003 to provide the requested information. Therefore. the safety information from
`the ongoing studies is limited as of the cutoff date and as these studies are not
`finalized, is subject to potential future alterations.
`
`Other non-IND clinical research studies
`
`The safety data for this section was derived from a search of the
`phannacovigilance database that excluded all J&JPRD studies and all events
`unrelated to a clinical study. The majority of these studies were sponsored by
`Janssen-Cilag Medical Affairs Europe and Janssen Pharmaceutica, Medical
`Affairs Division in USA. As with all pharmacovigilance data, this information
`might be subject to change and is not as complete as the data derived from
`locked clinical databases. Exposure calculations included these types of studies
`as well as two J&JPRD sponsored studies (RlS-JPN-16 and RlS-SlV-101) that
`are being conducted in Japan.
`
`Clinical studies
`
`Since the submission of the 4-month Safety Update Report of 4 December,
`2001 (cutoff date 15 May 2001 ), three Phase 3 clinical studies were completed
`(RIS—lNT-85, RlS-USA-259 and RlS-lNT-BZ). in addition, 4 Phase 3 open-label
`extension studies (RlS—lNT-63, RlS-USA—196, RlS-INT~80, and RIS»USA-
`265) are ongoing and provide up to 3 years of clinical safety information.
`Two of the ongoing studies are extensions of the Phase 3 studies described in
`NBA 21-346 submission for RISPERDAL CONSTA. Study RlS—USA—1 96
`is the extension of RlS-USA—121; RlS-lNT-63 is the extension of RlS-lNT-61,
`and RlS-lNT-57. Data from these two open-label extension studies until the
`cutoff date of 15 May 2001 were presented in the 4-month Safety Update.
`
`Estimate of Exposure to RISPERDAL CONSTA
`(Clinical Studies)
`
`Table 14 summarizes patient-years of exposure in the studies conducted since
`the ISS plus the ongoing extension studies. In total, 1664 patients have been
`treated with RISPERDAL CONSTA in these studies for a total exposure of
`749456 days or 2053.30 patient-years.

`Total exposure in the pooled, multiple-dose studies included in the ISS was
`230546 patient-days or 631.63 patient—years in 1499 patients. The multiple-dose
`studies included in the lSS were: RES-USA-121, RlS-INT-61, RIS—lNT-57, RIS-
`INT-31, RIS-lNT-32, RIS-SWE-17. RlS-lNT—63 is the extension study of RIS-INT-
`61 and RIS-lNT-57. RIS-USA-196 is the extension study of RiS-USA-121.
`The total number of patients treated with RISPERDAL CONSTA in clinical
`studies can be determined by adding the following to 1499:
`
`-The number of RISPERDAL CONSTA—treated patients in INT-62, INT-85,
`and USA-259 (309 + 166 + 141 = 616).
`
`-The number of patients in the placebo arm of USA-121 who entered USA—196

`Deaths (Completed Clinical Studies)
`
`There were 2 patients who died in the completed RISPERDAL CONSTA
`clinical studies since the 4-month Safety Update Report (Table 2). Both deaths
`occurred in the RISPERDAL CONSTA group in the one year comparative
`study RIS—lNT—62. In this study 6 patients died in the comparative olanzapine
`group. Only the RISPERDAL CONSTA treated patients will be described
`here.

`Serious Adverse Events (Completed Clinical
`Studies)
`There was a similar incidence of serious adverse events reported with
`RISPERDAL CONSTA in the Phase 3 completed clinical studies compared
`to that reported with RISPERDAL CONSTA and placebo treatment in the
`ISS of the NDA (Table 4). SAEs are mainly psychiatric in nature with no unusual
`pattern to the occasional medical SAE.
