`DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
`2.1
`General Dosing Information
`FOR OPl-:ITHALMIC INTRA VITREAL INJECTION.
`Vials: A 5-micron sterile filter needle (19-gauge x 1-1/2 inch), a 1-mL Luer lock syringe and a
`30-gauge x ½ inch sterile injection needle are needed but not included.
`2.2
`Neovascular (\Vet) Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD)
`LUCENTJS 0.5 mg (0.05 mL of l O mg/mL solution) is recommended to be administered by intravitreal
`injection once a month (approximately 28 days).
`
`Although not as effective, patients may be treated with 3 monthly doses followed by less frequent dosing with
`regular assessment. In the 9 months after three initial monthly doses, less frequent dosing with 4-5 doses on
`average is expected to maintain visual acuity while monthly dosing may be expected to result in an additional
`average 1-2 letter gain. Patients should be assessed regularly [see Clinical Studies (14.1)].
`
`Although not as effective, patients may also be treated with one dose every 3 months after 4 monthly doses.
`Compared with continued monthly dosing, dosing every 3 months over the next 9 months will lead to an
`approximate 5-letter (I-line) loss of visual acuity benefit, on average. Patients should be assessed regularly [see
`Clinical Studies (14.1)].
`2.3 Macular Edema FoHowing Retinal Vein Occlusion (RVO)
`LUCENTJS 0.5 mg (0.05 mL of l O mg/mL solution) is recommended to be administered by intravitreal
`injection once a month (approximately 28 days).
`
`In Studies RVO-1 and RVO-2, patients received monthly injections of LUCENTIS for 6 months. ln spite of
`being guided by optical coherence tomography and visual acuity re-treatment criteria, patients who were then
`not treated at Month 6 experienced on average, a loss of visual acuity at Month 7, whereas patients who were
`treated at Month 6 did not. Patients should be treated monthly [see Clinical Studies (] 4.2)].
`2.4
`Diabetic Macular Edema (DME) and Diabetic RetinoJ)athy (DR)
`LUCENTIS 0.3 mg (0.05 mL of 6 mg/mL solution) is recommended to be administered by intravitreal injection
`once a month (approximately 28 days).
`
`2.5 Myopic Choroidal Neovascufa.rization (mCNV)
`LUCENTlS 0.5 mg (0.05 mL of 10 mg/mL LUCENTIS solution) is recommended to be initially administered
`by intravitreal injection once a month (approximately 28 days) for up to 3 months. Patients may be retreated if
`needed [(see Clinical Studies 14.5)].

`
`Administration
`2. 7
`The intravitreal injection procedure should be carried out under controlled aseptic conditions, which include the
`use of sterile gloves, a sterile drape, and a sterile eyelid speculum ( or equivalent). Adequate anesthesia and a
`broad-spectmm microbicide should be given prior to the injection.
`
`Prior to and 30 minutes following the intravitreal injection, patients should be monitored for elevation in
`intraocular pressure using tonometry. Monitoring may also consist of a check for perfusion of the optic nerve
`head immediately after the injection [see VVarnings and Precautions (5.2)]. Patients should also be monitored
`for and instructed to report any symptoms suggestive of endophthalmitis without delay following the injection
`[see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].
`
`Each prefilled syringe or vial should only be used for the treatment of a single eye. If the contralateral eye
`requires treatment, a new prefilled syringe or vial should be used and the sterile field, syringe, gloves, drapes,
`eyelid speculum, filter needle (vial only), and injection needles should be changed before LUCENTIS is
`administered to the other eye.
`
`No special dosage modification is required for any of the populations that have been studied (e.g., gender,
`elderly).

`
`W ARl'lINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
`
`Endophthalmitis and Retinal Detachments
`5.1
`Intravitreal injections, including those with LUCENTIS, have been associated with endophthalmitis and retinal
`detachments. Proper aseptic injection technique should always be used when administering LUCENTJS. In
`addition, patients should be monitored following the injection to permit early treatment should an infection
`occur [see Dosage and Administration (2. 6, 2. 7) and Patient C'ounseling l!?fhrmation (17)].
`5.2
`Increases in IntraocuJar Pressure
`Increases in intraocular pressure have been noted both pre-injection and post-injection (at 60 minutes) while
`being treated with LUCENTIS. Monitor intraocular pressure prior to and following intravitreal injection with
`LUCENTIS and manage appropriately [see Dosage and Administration (2. 7)],
`
`Thrornboernbolic Events
`5.3
`Although there was a low rate of arterial thromboembolic events (A TEs) observed in the LUCENTIS clinical
`trials, there is a potential risk of ATEs following intravitreal use ofVEGF inhibitors. Arterial thromboembolic
`events are defined as nonfatal stroke, nonfatal myocardial infarction, or vascular death (including deaths of
`unknown cause).
`
`Neovascu!ar (FVet) Age-Related Macular Degeneration
`The ATE rate in the three controlled neovascular AMD studies (AMD-1, AMD-2, AMD-3) during the first year
`was 1.9% (17 of 874) in the combined group of patients treated with 0.3 mg or 0.5 mg LUCENTIS compared
`with 1. 1 % (5 of 441) in patients from the control arms [see Clinical Studies(] 4.1)]. ln the second year of
`Studies AMD-1 and AMD-2, the ATE rate was 2.6% (19 of721) in the combined group ofLUCENTlS-treated
`patients compared with 2.9% ( 10 of 344) in patients from the control arms. In Study AMD-4, the ATE rates
`observed in the 0.5 mg arms during the first and second year were similar to rates observed in Studies AMD-1,
`AMD-2, and AMD-3.
`
`In a pooled analysis of 2-year controlled studies [AMD-1, AMD-2, and a study ofLUCENTlS used
`adjunctively with verteporfin photodynamic therapy (PDT)], the stroke rate (including both ischemic and
`hemorrhagic stroke) was 2.7% (13 of 484) in patients treated with 0.5 mg LUCENTIS compared to l.1 % (5 of
`435) in patients in the control arms [odds ratio 2.2 (95% confidence interval (0.8-7. l)].
`
`A1acular Edema Following Retinal Vein Occlusion
`The ATE rate in the two controlled RVO studies during the first 6 months was 0.8% in both the LUCENTIS
`and control arms of the studies ( 4 of 525 in the combined group of patients treated with 0.3 mg or 0.5 mg
`LUCENTIS and 2 of 260 in the control arms) [see Clinical Studies (14.2)]. The stroke rate was 0.2% (1 of 525)
`in the combined group of LUCENT IS-treated patients compared to 0.4%) ( 1 of 260) in the control arms.
`
`Diabetic Macular Edema and Diabetic Retinopathy
`Safety data are derived from studies D-1 and D-2. All enrolled patients had DME and DR at baseline [ see
`Clinical Studies (14.3, 1-:f..4)].
`
`In a pooled analysis of Studies D-1 and D-2 [see Clinical Studies (14.3)], the A TE rate at 2 years was 7.2% ( 18
`of 250) with 0.5 mg LUCENTIS, 5.6% (14 of250) with 0.3 mg LUCENTIS, and 5.2% (13 of250) with control.
`The stroke rate at 2 years was 3.2% (8 of 250) with 0.5 mg LUCENTIS, 1.2% (3 of 250) with 0.3 mg
`LUCENTJS, and 1.6% (4 of 250) with control. At 3 years, the ATE rate was 10.4% (26 of249) with 0.5 mg
`LUCENTIS and 10.8% (27 of 250) with 0.3 mg LUCENTIS; the stroke rate was 4.8% (12 of 249) with 0.5 mg
`LUCENTIS and 2.0% (5 of 250) with 0.3 mg LUCENTIS.
`
`Fatal Events in Patients with Diabetic MacuJar Edema and Diabetic Retinopathy at Baseline
`5.4
`Diabetic }vfacular Edema and Diabetic Retinopathy
`Safety data are derived from studies D-1 and D-2. All enrolled patients had DME and DR at baseline [see
`Clinical Studies (14.3, 14.4)].

`Regeneron v. Novartis, IPR2021-00816
`
`

`

`A pooled analysis of Studies D-1 and D-2 [see Clinical Studies (l-1.3)], showed that fatalities in the first 2 years
`occurred in 4.4% (1 l of 250) of patients treated with 0.5 mg LUCENTIS, in 2.8% (7 of 250) of patients treated
`with 0.3 mg LUCENTIS, and in 1.2% (3 of 250) of control patients. Over 3 years, fatalities occurred in 6.4%
`(16 of 249) of patients treated with 0.5 mg LUCENTIS and in 4.4% (l 1 of 250) of patients treated with 0.3 mg
`LUCENTIS. Although the rate of fatal events was low and included causes of death typical of patients with
`advanced diabetic complications, a potential relationship between these events and intravitreal use ofVEGF
`inhibitors cannot be excluded.
`
`ADVERSE REACTIONS
`6
`The following adverse reactions are discussed in greater detail in other sections of the label:
`• Endophthalmitis and Retinal Detachments [see FVamings and Precautions (5.1)]
`• Increases in Intraocular Pressure [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)]
`• Thromboembolic Events [see FVarnings and Precautions (5.3)]
`• Fatal Events in patients with DME and DR at baseline /see Warnings and Precautions (5.4)}
`
`Injection Procedure
`6.1
`Serious adverse reactions related to the injection procedure have occurred in< 0.1 % of intravitreal injections,
`including endophthalmitis [see FVamings and Precautions (5.1)], rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, and
`iatrogenic traumatic cataract.
`
`Clinical Studies Experience
`6.2
`Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in one
`clinical trial of a drug cannot be directly compared with rates in the clinical trials of the same or another drug
`and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.
`
`The data below reflect exposure to 0.5 mg LUCENTIS in 440 patients with neovascular AMD in Studies
`AMD-1, AMD-2, and AMD-3; in 259 patients with macular edema following RVO. The data also reflect
`exposure to 0.3 mg LUCENTIS in 250 patients with DME and DR at baseline [see Clinical Studies (I 4)].
`
`Safety data observed in 224 patients with mCNV, as well as Studies AMD-4 and D-3, were consistent with
`these results. On average, the rates and types of adverse reactions in patients were not significantly affected by
`dosing regimen.
`
`Ocular Reactions
`Table 1 shows frequently reported ocular adverse reactions in LUCENTIS-treated patients compared with the
`control group.
