`• Severe hypersensitivity reactions may occur. In case of severe
`hypersensitivity, discontinue HAEGARDA administration and institute
`appropriate treatment. Epinephrine should be immediately available for
`treatment of severe hypersensitivity reaction. (5.1)
`• At the recommended subcutaneous (S.C.) dose, a causal relationship between
`thromboembolic events (TEEs) and the use of HAEGARDA has not been
`established. However, thrombosis has occurred in treatment attempts with
`high doses of C1-INH intravenous (I.V.) for prevention or therapy of
`capillary leak syndrome before, during or after cardiac surgery (unapproved
`indication and dose). (5.2)
`• Because HAEGARDA is made from human blood, it may carry a risk of
`transmitting infectious agents, e.g., viruses, the variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob
`disease (vCJD) agent and, theoretically, the Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD)
`agent. (5.3)
`
`--------------------------------- ADVERSE REACTIONS --------------------------------
`• Adverse reactions occurring in more than 4% of subjects treated with
`HAEGARDA were injection site reaction, hypersensitivity, nasopharyngitis
`and dizziness. (6.1)

`
`3
`
`HAEGARDA is available as a white lyophilized powder supplied in single-use vials containing
`2000 or 3000 IU of C1-INH.
`• The 2000 IU vial must be reconstituted with 4 mL of Sterile Water for Injection, USP.
`• The 3000 IU vial must be reconstituted with 6 mL of Sterile Water for Injection, USP.
`
`

`
`HAEGARDA is contraindicated in individuals who have experienced life-threatening
`hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, to C1-INH preparations or its excipients [see
`Description (11)].
`
`
`5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
`
`The physician should discuss the risks and benefits of this product with the patient before
`prescribing or administering it to the patient [see Patient Counseling Information (17)].
`
`Initiate individualized treatment in case of an acute HAE attack.
`
`5.1 Hypersensitivity
`Severe hypersensitivity reactions may occur. The signs and symptoms of hypersensitivity
`reactions may include hives (local and generalized), tightness of the chest, difficulty breathing,
`wheezing, hypotension, and/or anaphylaxis during or after injection of HAEGARDA. In case of
`severe hypersensitivity, discontinue HAEGARDA administration and institute appropriate
`treatment. Epinephrine should be immediately available for treatment of severe hypersensitivity
`reaction [see Patient Counseling Information (17)].
`
`5.2 Thromboembolic Events
`At the recommended subcutaneous dose, a causal relationship between thromboembolic events
`(TEEs) and the use of HAEGARDA has not been established [see Patient Counseling
`Information (17)]. Thrombosis has occurred in treatment attempts with high doses of C1-INH
`intravenous (I.V.) for prevention or therapy of capillary leak syndrome before, during or after
`cardiac surgery (unapproved indication and dose).
`
`5.3 Transmissible Infectious Agents
`Because HAEGARDA is made from human blood, it may carry a risk of transmitting infectious
`agents, e.g., viruses, the variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD) agent and, theoretically, the
`Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) agent. The risk that such products will transmit an infectious
`agent has been reduced by screening plasma donors for prior exposure to certain viruses, by
`testing for the presence of certain current virus infections, and by processes demonstrated to
`inactivate and/or remove certain viruses during manufacturing [see Description (11) and Patient
`Counseling Information (17)]. Despite these measures, such products may still contain human

`
`pathogenic agents, including those not yet known or identified. Thus, the risk of transmission of
`infectious agents cannot be totally eliminated.
`
`All infections thought by a physician possibly to have been transmitted by HAEGARDA should
`be reported by lot number, by the physician or other healthcare provider, to the CSL Behring
`Pharmacovigilance Department at 1-866-915-6958.
`

`
`Adverse reactions occurring in more than 4% of subjects treated with HAEGARDA were
`injection site reaction, hypersensitivity, nasopharyngitis and dizziness.
`
`6.1 Clinical Trials Experience
`Because clinical studies are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates
`observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials
`of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.
`
`Of the 90 subjects randomized in the double-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-over study [see
`Clinical Studies (14)], 86 subjects received at least one dose of HAEGARDA and 86 subjects
`received at least one dose of placebo (Table 2). A total of 5081 injections of HAEGARDA and
`placebo were administered over a range of 3 to 19 weeks (median of 16.6 weeks for
`HAEGARDA; median of 16.3 weeks for placebo).

`
`
`Data
`In a retrospective case collection study, 22 pregnant women with type I HAE and ranging in age
`from 20 to 38 years received C1-INH doses of 500 or 1000 IU per I.V. administration for the
`treatment of acute attacks before, during, and/or after pregnancy (total of 35 pregnancies). No
`adverse events were associated with C1-INH treatment before, during, or after pregnancy.1
`
`In an observational registry (overall 318 subjects) data were collected on 11 pregnancies in
`10 subjects (16 to 40 years old) receiving up to 3000 IU C1-INH (I.V. administration) to treat or
`prevent HAE attacks. No adverse events were associated with C1-INH treatment.2
`
`8.2 Lactation
`
`Risk Summary
`There is no information regarding the excretion of HAEGARDA in human milk, the effect on the
`breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. The developmental and health benefits of
`breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for HAEGARDA and
`any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from HAEGARDA or from the underlying
`maternal condition.
`
`Data
`In a retrospective case collection study, breastfeeding was documented for neonates from 21 of
`35 births with a median duration of 4.8 months (ranging from 1 to 34 months). Mothers were
`treated postpartum with C1-INH doses up to 1000 IU per I.V. administration for the treatment of
`acute HAE attacks. No adverse events to the mothers were associated with C1-INH treatment
`after pregnancy. No information regarding the effect on the breastfed infant was reported.1
`
`8.4 Pediatric Use
`The safety and effectiveness of HAEGARDA were evaluated in a subgroup of six patients 12 to
`<17 years of age in the randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover, routine
`prophylaxis trial. Results of subgroup analysis by age were consistent with overall study results.
`
`8.5 Geriatric Use
`The safety and effectiveness of HAEGARDA were evaluated in a subgroup of eight patients 65
`to 72 years of age in the randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover, routine
`prophylaxis trial. Results of subgroup analysis by age were consistent with overall study results.
`
`
`10 OVERDOSAGE
`
`No case of overdose has been reported. Doses corresponding to up to 117 IU/kg S.C. have been
`administered twice weekly in a fixed-dose clinical study.

`1.14.1.3 Draft Labeling Text
`
`
`11 DESCRIPTION
`
`HAEGARDA is a human plasma-derived, purified, pasteurized, lyophilized concentrate of
`C1-INH to be reconstituted for S.C. administration. HAEGARDA is prepared from large pools
`of human plasma from U.S. donors. The potency of C1-INH is expressed in International Units
`(IU), which is related to the current WHO Standard for C1-INH products.
`
`Reconstituted HAEGARDA has a concentration of 500 IU/mL C1-INH, 65 mg/mL total protein,
`10 mg/mL glycine, 8.5 mg/mL sodium chloride and 2.7 mg/mL sodium citrate.
`
`C1 Esterase Inhibitor
`C1-INH is a soluble, single-chain highly glycosylated protein containing 478 amino acid
`residues which belongs to the serine protease inhibitor (serpin) family.
`
`All plasma used in the manufacturing of C1-INH is obtained from U.S. donors and is tested
`using serological assays for hepatitis B surface antigen and antibodies to HIV-1/2 and HCV.
`Additionally, the plasma is tested with Nucleic Acid Testing (NAT) for HBV, HCV, HIV-1 and
`HAV and found to be non-reactive (negative). The plasma is also tested by NAT for Human
`Parvovirus B19. Only plasma that has passed virus screening is used for production, and the limit
`for Parvovirus B19 in the fractionation pool is set not to exceed 104 IU of Parvovirus B19 DNA
`per mL.
`
`The manufacturing process for HAEGARDA includes multiple steps that reduce the risk of virus
`transmission. The virus inactivation/reduction capacity consists of three steps:
`• Pasteurization in aqueous solution at 60°C for 10 hours
`• Hydrophobic interaction chromatography
`• Virus filtration (also called nanofiltration) by two filters, 20 nm and 15 nm, in series.
`
`Viral inactivation and reduction were evaluated in a series of in vitro spiking experiments. The
`total mean cumulative virus inactivation/reduction is shown in Table 3.

`12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
`
`12.1 Mechanism of Action
`C1-INH is a normal constituent of human plasma and belongs to the group of serine protease
`inhibitors (serpins) that includes antithrombin III, alpha1-protease inhibitor, alpha2-antiplasmin,
`and heparin cofactor II. As with the other inhibitors in this group, C1-INH has an important
`inhibiting potential on several of the major human cascade systems, including the complement,
`fibrinolytic and coagulation systems. Regulation of these systems is performed through the
`formation of complexes between the protease and the inhibitor, resulting in inactivation of both
`and consumption of the C1-INH.
`
`C1-INH, which is usually activated during the inflammatory process, inactivates its substrate by
`covalently binding to the reactive site. C1-INH is the only known inhibitor for the C1r and C1s
`subcomponents of complement component 1 (C1), coagulation factor XIIa, and plasma
`kallikrein. Additionally, C1-INH is the main inhibitor for coagulation factor XIa of the intrinsic
`coagulation cascade.

`
`
`HAE patients have absence or low levels of endogenous or functional C1-INH. Although the
`events that cause attacks of angioedema in HAE patients are not well defined, it has been
`postulated that increased vascular permeability and the clinical manifestation of HAE attacks
`may be primarily mediated through contact system activation. Suppression of contact system
`activation by C1-INH through the inactivation of plasma kallikrein and factor XIIa is thought to
`modulate this vascular permeability by preventing the generation of bradykinin. Administration
`of HAEGARDA replaces the missing or malfunctioning C1-INH protein in patients with HAE.
`
`12.2 Pharmacodynamics
`In untreated patients, insufficient levels of functional C1-INH lead to increased activation of C1,
`which results in decreased levels of complement component 4 (C4). The administration of
`HAEGARDA increases plasma levels of C1-INH in a dose-dependent manner and subsequently
`increases plasma concentrations of C4. The C4 plasma concentrations after S.C. administration
`of 60 IU/kg HAEGARDA were in the normal range (16 to 38 mg/dL).
`
`12.3 Pharmacokinetics
`The pharmacokinetics (PK) of C1-INH were described using population PK analysis.
`
`The PK parameters of C1-INH following twice weekly subcutaneous 60 IU/kg dosing are
`shown in Table 4.

`
`The steady state PK of S.C. C1-INH is independent of dose between 20-80 IU/kg in HAE
`subjects.
`
`Studies have not been conducted to evaluate the PK of C1-INH in specific patient populations
`stratified by gender, race, age, or the presence of renal or hepatic impairment. The PK of C1-INH
`was not influenced at the age range of 12-72 years.

`13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility
`No animal studies have been conducted to evaluate the effects of C1-INH on carcinogenesis,
`mutagenesis, and impairment of fertility.
`
`13.2 Animal Toxicology and/or Pharmacology
`Single subcutaneous administration of HAEGARDA in rabbits at dose levels up to
`approximately 670 IU/kg did not result in adverse findings.
`
`
`14 CLINICAL STUDIES
`
`The efficacy and safety of HAEGARDA for routine prophylaxis to prevent HAE attacks were
`demonstrated in a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study.
`The study assessed 90 adult and adolescent subjects with symptomatic HAE type I or II. The
`median (range) age of subjects was 40 (12 to 72) years ; 60 subjects were female and 30 subjects
`were male. Subjects were randomized to receive either 60 IU/kg or 40 IU/kg HAEGARDA in
`one 16-week treatment period and placebo in the other 16-week treatment period. Patients
`self-administered HAEGARDA or placebo subcutaneously 2 times per week. Efficacy was
`evaluated for the last 14 weeks of each treatment period.
`
`Twice per week S.C. doses of 60 IU/kg or 40 IU/kg HAEGARDA resulted in a significant
`difference in the time-normalized number of HAE attacks (the rate of attacks) relative to placebo
`(Table 5). The time normalized number of HAE attacks in subjects dosed with 60 IU/kg was
`0.52 attacks per month compared to 4.03 attacks per month while receiving placebo (p <0.001).
`The time normalized number of HAE attacks in subjects dosed with 40 IU/kg was 1.19 attacks
`per month compared to 3.61 attacks per month while receiving placebo (p <0.001).

`
`The median (25th, 75th percentile) percentage reduction in the time-normalized number of HAE
`attacks relative to placebo was 95% (79, 100) on 60 IU/kg HAEGARDA and 89% (70, 100) on
`40 IU/kg HAEGARDA among subjects with evaluable data in both treatment periods.
`
`The percentage of responders (95% CI) with a ≥50% reduction in the time‑normalized number
`of HAE attacks on HAEGARDA relative to placebo was 83% (73%, 90%). Ninety percent
`(90%) of subjects on 60 IU/kg responded to treatment and 76% of subjects on 40 IU/kg
`responded to treatment.
`
`The percentages of subjects (95% CI) with ≥70% and ≥90% reductions in the time‑normalized
`number of HAE attacks on HAEGARDA relative to placebo were 74% (64%, 83%) and 50%
`(39%, 61%), respectively. The percentages of subjects with ≥70% and ≥90% reductions in
`comparison to placebo in the time-normalized number of HAE attacks were 83% and 58% on
`60 IU/kg and 67% and 43% on 40 IU/kg. Seventy-one percent (71%) of subjects on 60 IU/kg and
`53% of subjects on 40 IU/kg had ≥1 HAE attack per 4 week period on placebo and <1 HAE
`attack per 4 week period on HAEGARDA.
`
`A total of 40% of subjects on 60 IU/kg and 38% of subjects on 40 IU/kg were attack-free, and
`the median rate of HAE attacks per month was 0.3 on both doses.
`
`HAEGARDA resulted in a significant difference in the time-normalized number of uses of
`rescue medication (the rate of rescue medication use) relative to placebo. A dose of 60 IU/kg
`resulted in a mean rate of rescue medication of 0.3 uses per month, compared to 3.9 uses per
