`ADVAIR DJSKUS 100/50, ADVAJR DISKUS 250/SO, and ADVAIR DISKUS 500/50 are specially
`designed plastic devices containing 1 double-foD blister strip Qf a powder fonnulaUon of nuticasone
`propionate and salmeterol xinafoate Intend~ for oral lnhalatlon only. Each bUster on the doubt~yoll
`strip within the device contains 100. 250, or 500 mcg of mlcrofine flutJcasone propionate and · ~
`~
`72.5 meg of mtcrofine sarmeterol xlnafoate salt. equivalent to 50 mcg of safmeterof base. In
`i
`12.5 mg of fonnufatlon containing lactose. Each blister contains 1 complete dose of both
`medications. After a bHster containing medication ls o~ed by activating the device, the
`medication is dispersed Into the alrstream created by the patient lnhaltng through the mouthpiece.
`Under standardized In vittO test conditions, ADVAIR OISKUS delivers 93, 233, and 465 mog of
`fJuticasone propionate and 45 mcg Of satmete"°' base per blister from ADVAfR DISKU.s 100/50,
`250/50. and 500/50, respectively, when tested at a flow rate of 60 Umin for 2 seconds. In adult
`patients (n a 9) with obstructive lung disease and severely compromised Jung f\lnctJon (mean
`forced exi>fratory volume Jn 1 second [FEVd 20% to 30% of predicted), mean peak lnspiratory flow
`(PJF) through a DISKus• device was 80.0 Umin (range, 46.1to116.3 llmln).
`Inhalation profd~ for adolescent {n • 13, aged 12 to 17 yeam) and adult (n a 17, aged 18 to
`so years) patients wtth asthma Inhaling maximaltY through the DISKUS device show mean PIF of
`122.2 l!m'n (range, 8t .8 to 152.1 Umin).
`The actual amount of drug delivered to the lung will depend on patient factors, such as
`inspiratory flow-proltle.
`
`CUNICAL-PtlARMACOLOGY:
`Mechanism of Action: ADVAIR D/SKUS: ADVAIR OISKUS is designed to produce a greater
`Improvement Jn pulmonary function and symptom control Ulan either flutJcassme propionate or
`satmeterol used alone at their recommended dosages. SJnce ADVAIR DISKUS contains both
`flutioasone propionate and &almeterot, the mechanisms of adion described below for the Individual
`components apply to ADV/I.JR OISKUS. These drugs represent 2 classes of medications (a
`synthetic corticosteroid and a long.acting beta-adrenerglc receptor agorllst) that have different
`effects on cliilical, physlologJcal, and Inflammatory Indices of asthma.

`
`Flutlc:ilsone Proplon.te: FlutJcasone propionate is a synthetic, trfOuorinated corticosteroid with
`potent anti-inflammatory actJvity, In vitro assays using human lung cytosol J,reparatJons have
`established ft~lcasone propionate as a human glucocortloold receptor agonlst with en aMnlty
`18 times gl88terthan dexamethasone, .,most tWfce that of bedomethdrbne-17-monopropionate
`(BMP), the adNe meblbDOte of beclomathasone dlproplonate, and over 3 times that of bUCfesonfde.
`Data from the McKenzie vasoconstrtctor assay In man are consistent with these results.
`The precise mechanisms of tlutlcasone propionate aatlon la asthma are unknown. Inflammation
`Is recognized as 1n Important component In the pmthogenesil of asthma. Co~rolds'have been
`shown to fnhJbft rnultlple cell types. (e.g •• mast cens, eosinophns, basophns, lymphocytes,
`macrophages, and neutrophlls) and mediator production or sectetJon (e.g., histamine, elcosanoids,
`leukotrienes, and cytokines) Involved In the asthmatic resp0nse. These anti-Inflammatory actions of
`'l
`corticosteroids contribute to thalr.efficacy In asthma.
`Salmetero/ X1nafoate: Salmeteroi' Is a long-acUng beta-edrenerglc agonlst. In vitro studies artif
`In vivo phannsoologlc studies demonstrate that salmeterol ls selective for betar&drenooeptors ~ a
`compared wHh lsoproterenol, which has approximately equal agonlst actMty on beta1• and
`beta2.adrenoceptors. In vitro st:.1dies show salmetarol to be at least 50 times more selective for
`beta2·adrenoceptors than afbuterol. AJthough beta,.adrenoc:eptors are the predominant adtenerglc
`receptors In bronchial smooth muscle and beta1..acfrenoceptors are the predomlaant recep!ors In the
`t\eart, there are also betaradrenoceptors in the human heart comprising 10% to 50% Of the total
`beta-adrenoceptors. The precJse function of these receptors bas not been established, but they raise
`the possi~llity that evan highly selective betaz-agonlsts may have c;ardiao effects.
`The pharmacofoglc effects of betaradrenocejJlor aganJst drugs, Including salmeterol, are at least
`In part attributable to stlmul1Uon of fnttacellular adenyl cyclase, the enzyme that catalyzes the
`conversion of adenaslne triphosphate (ATP) to cyclic-3',6'-adenosine monophosphate (cyclic AMP).
`Increased cyclic AMP levels aause relaxation af bronchJaf Smooth muscle and lnhlbftJon of release
`of mediators of Immediate hypersensJtlvlty from cells, especlally from mast oeUs.
`In vitro tests show that saJmeteroJ Is 1 potent and long-lasting Inhibitor of the release of mast cell
`mediators. such.:-as histamine, leukotr1enes, and prostagtandln ~. from human lung. satmeterol
`Inhibits histamine-lnduoed plasm£ protein extravasation and inhibits platelet-activating
`factor-lncli.11."ect-eastnophR ~lation In the lungs of guinea pigs When administered by the Inhaled
`route. In humans, single doses of salmeterof administered via fnhafaUon aerosol attenuate

`
`Phannacokinetics: ADVAJR DISKUS: Following admlnlstratlon of AOVAJR DISICUS to healthy
`subjects, peak plasma .concentrations of fluticasone propionate were achJeved In 1 to 2 hours and
`those of salmeterof were achieved In about 5 minutes.
`In a single-dose crossover study, a higher than recommended dose df AOVAIR OISKUS was

`
`metabolJzed~ and eftmfnated Independently. Salmeterol acts locally In the l~ng: therefore, plasma
`levels do not predict th~peutlc effect.
`Absorption: Because of the small therapeutic dose, systemic levels of salmeterol are low or
`undetectable after inhalation of recommended doses (50 mcg of salmetwol inhalation powder twice
`dally). Fonowlng chronic ad.ministration of an Inhaled dose of 50 mcg of salmetarol lnhalatl~n
`powder twice daily, salmeterol was detected In plasma within 5 to 411 ~utes In 7 asthmatic
`patients; plasma concentrations were very loW, with mean peak concentrations Of 187 pg/mL at
`.
`.
`20 minutes and no aocumutatJon with repeated doses.
`Dlsttfbutlon: Binding of salmeterol to human plasma proteins averages ge;c. fn vitro over the
`concentration range of 8 to T122 ng of ~eterol base per mlDJlltar, much. higher concentrations
`than tho.se achieved following therapeutic doses of salmeterol.
`Metabolism: Salmeterol base Is extensively metabotlzed by hydroxylation, with subsequent
`ellmlnation predominantly In the feces. No significant amount of unchanged salmeterol base was-l
`t
`detected In either urine or feces.
`j
`Effmlnation: In 2 healthy subjects who received 1 mg of radlolabeled salmeterol (as
`salmeterol xlnafoate) orally, approximately 25% and 60% of the radiofabefed salmeterol was
`eliminated In urine and feces, respectively, over a period of 7 days~ The termlnaJ elimination half-life
`wes about 6.5 hours (1 volunteer only).
`The ~nafoate moiety has no apparent pharmacologic activity. The xlnafoate moiety Is highly
`protein t>ound (>99%) and has a long eUmlnatlon half.life of 11 days.
`Spec/al Popufatlons: Formal pbannacoklnetic studies of saJmetarol base have not been
`conducted In special populations. Since nlmeterol ls predomfnanUy deared by hepatic metabolism,
`lmpainnent of Jlver function may lead to accumulation of satmeterol ln plasma. Therefore, patients
`Ylrth hepatic disease should be closely monitored.
`Pharmacodynamlcs: ADVAIR DISKUS: Since systemic phannacodynamlc effects of salmeterol
`are not normany seen at the therapeutic dose, higher doses were used to produce 01easun1hle
`effects. Four studies~ aoaducted In healthy subjects: (1) a sJngle-dose crossover study using
`2 inhalations of AD\IAIR OISKUS 500/50, flutlcasone propionate powder 500 mcg and salmeterol
`powder 50 mcg given concurrently, or flutlcasone propionate powder 500 mcg given alone, (2) a
`c:;umulatlvidose study using 50 t~ 400 mcg of sa_lmeterol powder given alone or as ADVAIR
`DISKUS 500/50, (3) a repeat-dose study for 11 days using 2 Inhalations twice daily of ADVAIR
`OISt<US 250/SO, flutlcasane propionate powder 250 mcg, or salmeterol poWder 50 mcg, and (4) a
`single-dose sludy using 5 lnhalaUons of AOVAIR DISKUS 100/50, fluticasone propionate powder
`100 mcg alone, or placebo. In these studies no slgnfficant differences were observed In the
`pharmacodynamic effects of salmeterol (pulse rate, blood pressure, QTc Interval, potassium. and

`In a 12-w-eek study In patients With as1hma, AOVAIR DISKUS 250/50 twice dally was compared
`with fluUcasone propionate powder 250 mc:g alone, salmeterol powder SO mcg alone, and placebo.
`For most patients. the ablllty to Jncrease cortJsol production In response to stress, as assessed by
`3D-mlnut~ c:osyntropin stimulation, remained Intact with AOVAJ~ DlSKUS. One patient (3%) who
`receJved ADVAIR DISKUS 250/50 had an abnonnar 1'9Sponse (peak serum cortisol <18 mcg/dL)
`after-dosing, compared with 2 patients (6%) who received placebo, 2 patients (6%) who received
`flutlcasone propionate 250 mcg, aDd no patients who received salmeterol.
`Flutlcasone Ptoplonate: In cftnlcal trials With ftutk;asone propionate lnhalaUon powder using
`doses up to and including 250 mcg twice dally, occasional abnormal short cosyntropln tests (peak
`serum cortisol <18 mcg/dL) were noted both In patients receiving fluticasone propionate and In
`patients receiving placebo. Tbe incldence of abnormal tests at 500 mcg twice dally was greater than
`placebo. In a 2-yesr ~earned out In 64 paUents w'lth mild, persistent asthma (mean FEV1 91 %
