`
`FULL PRESCRIBING INFORMATION
`
`INDICATIONS AND USAGE
`1
`
`STEGLUJAN™ is indicated as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults
`with type 2 diabetes mellitus when treatment with both ertugliflozin and sitagliptin is appropriate.
`
`Limitations of Use
`STEGLUJAN is not recommended in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus or for the treatment of
`diabetic ketoacidosis.
`
`
`
`STEGLUJAN has not been studied in patients with a history of pancreatitis. It is unknown whether
`
`
`
`patients with a history of pancreatitis are at increased risk for the development of pancreatitis while using
`STEGLUJAN. [See Warnings and Precautions (5.1).]
`2
`DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
`2.1 Recommended Dosage
`
`x The recommended starting dose of STEGLUJAN is 5 mg ertugliflozin/100 mg sitagliptin once
`
`
`daily, taken in the morning, with or without food. In patients tolerating STEGLUJAN, the dose may
`
`be increased to a maximum recommended dose of 15 mg ertugliflozin/100 mg sitagliptin, once
`daily, if additional glycemic control is needed.
`
`
`
`
`
`x For patients treated with ertugliflozin who are being switched to STEGLUJAN, the dose of
`ertugliflozin can be maintained.
`
`x In patients with volume depletion, correct this condition prior to initiation of STEGLUJAN [see
`Warnings and Precautions (5.2)].
`
`
`3
`
`2.2 Patients with Renal Impairment
`
`
`
`
`
`x Assess renal function prior to initiation of STEGLUJAN and periodically thereafter [see Warnings
`
`and Precautions (5.4)].
`
`x Use of STEGLUJAN is contraindicated in patients with an eGFR less than 30 mL/min/1.73 m2
`[see Contraindications (4)].
`x Initiation of STEGLUJAN is not recommended in patients with an eGFR of 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 to
`
`
`less than 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4) and Use in Specific
`
`Populations (8.6)].
`x Continued use of STEGLUJAN is not recommended when eGFR is persistently between 30 and
`
`
`
`
`less than 60 mL/min/1.73 m2.
`x No dose adjustment is needed in patients with mild renal impairment.
`
`DOSAGE FORMS AND STRENGTHS
`
`x STEGLUJAN 5 mg/100 mg: ertugliflozin 5 mg and sitagliptin 100 mg tablets are beige, almond-
`shaped debossed with “554” on one side and plain on the other side.
`x STEGLUJAN 15 mg/100 mg: ertugliflozin 15 mg and sitagliptin 100 mg tablets are brown,
`
`almond-shaped debossed with “555” on one side and plain on the other side.
`CONTRAINDICATIONS
`x Severe renal impairment, end-stage renal disease (ESRD), or dialysis [see Warnings and
`
`Precautions (5.4) and Use in Specific Populations (8.6)].
`x History of a serious hypersensitivity reaction to sitagliptin, such as anaphylaxis or angioedema
`
`
`
`[see Warnings and Precautions (5.10) and Adverse Reactions (6.2)].
`x History of a serious hypersensitivity reaction to ertugliflozin.
`
`5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
`5.1 Pancreatitis
`There have been postmarketing reports of acute pancreatitis, including fatal and non-fatal
`
`hemorrhagic or necrotizing pancreatitis, in patients taking sitagliptin, a component of STEGLUJAN. After
`
`
`initiation of STEGLUJAN, patients should be observed carefully for signs and symptoms of pancreatitis. If
`
`pancreatitis is suspected, STEGLUJAN should promptly be discontinued and appropriate management
`
`

`
`Novo Nordisk Exhibit 2466
`Mylan Pharms. Inc. v. Novo Nordisk A/S
`IPR2023-00724
`Page 00003
`
`
`
`
`
`should be initiated. It is unknown whether patients with a history of pancreatitis are at increased risk for
`
`the development of pancreatitis while using STEGLUJAN.
`
`5.2 Hypotension
`Ertugliflozin, a component of STEGLUJAN, causes intravascular volume contraction. Therefore,
`
`
`symptomatic hypotension may occur after initiating STEGLUJAN [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)]
`particularly in patients with impaired renal function (eGFR less than 60 mL/min/1.73 m2) [see Use in
`
`
`Specific Populations (8.6)] HOGHUO\ SDWLHQWV years), in patients with low systolic blood pressure, and
`
`
`
`
`
`in patients on diuretics. Before initiating STEGLUJAN, volume status should be assessed and corrected if
`
`indicated. Monitor for signs and symptoms of hypotension after initiating therapy.
`
`5.3 Ketoacidosis
`
`Reports of ketoacidosis, a serious life-threatening condition requiring urgent hospitalization, have
`
`
`been identified in clinical trials and postmarketing surveillance in patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes
`
`mellitus receiving medicines containing sodium glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors and cases
`
`have been reported in ertugliflozin-treated patients in clinical trials. Across the clinical program,
`
`
`ketoacidosis was identified in 3 of 3,409 (0.1%) of ertugliflozin-treated patients and 0% of comparator-
`
`treated patients. Fatal cases of ketoacidosis have been reported in patients taking medicines containing
`
`
`
`SGLT2 inhibitors. STEGLUJAN is not indicated for the treatment of patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus
`[see Indications and Usage (1)].
`
`
`
`Patients treated with STEGLUJAN who present with signs and symptoms consistent with severe
`
`
`metabolic acidosis should be assessed for ketoacidosis regardless of presenting blood glucose levels, as
`
`
`ketoacidosis associated with STEGLUJAN may be present even if blood glucose levels are less than
`
`250 mg/dL. If ketoacidosis is suspected, STEGLUJAN should be discontinued, patient should be
`
`
`evaluated, and prompt treatment should be instituted. Treatment of ketoacidosis may require insulin, fluid,
`and carbohydrate replacement.
`
`
`In many of the reported cases, and particularly in patients with type 1 diabetes, the presence of
`
`
`ketoacidosis was not immediately recognized and institution of treatment was delayed because
`
`
`
`
`presenting blood glucose levels were below those typically expected for diabetic ketoacidosis (often less
`
`
`
`than 250 mg/dL). Signs and symptoms at presentation were consistent with dehydration and severe
`metabolic acidosis and included nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, generalized malaise, and shortness of
`
`
`breath. In some but not all cases, factors predisposing to ketoacidosis such as insulin dose reduction,
`
`acute febrile illness, reduced caloric intake due to illness or surgery, pancreatic disorders suggesting
`
`
`insulin deficiency (e.g., type 1 diabetes, history of pancreatitis or pancreatic surgery), and alcohol abuse
`were identified.
`
`Before initiating STEGLUJAN, consider factors in the patient history that may predispose to
`ketoacidosis, including pancreatic insulin deficiency from any cause, caloric restriction, and alcohol
`
`abuse. In patients treated with STEGLUJAN consider monitoring for ketoacidosis and temporarily
`
`discontinuing STEGLUJAN in clinical situations known to predispose to ketoacidosis (e.g., prolonged
`fasting due to acute illness or surgery).
`
`5.4 Acute Kidney Injury and Impairment in Renal Function
`
`STEGLUJAN causes intravascular volume contraction and can cause renal impairment [see
`
`
`
`Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. There have been postmarketing reports of acute kidney injury some requiring
`
`hospitalization and dialysis in patients receiving SGLT2 inhibitors.
`
`
`Before initiating STEGLUJAN, consider factors that may predispose patients to acute kidney injury
`
`including hypovolemia, chronic renal insufficiency, congestive heart failure and concomitant medications
`
`(diuretics, ACE inhibitors, ARBs, NSAIDs). Consider temporarily discontinuing STEGLUJAN in any setting
`
`of reduced oral intake (such as acute illness or fasting) or fluid losses (such as gastrointestinal illness or
`
`excessive heat exposure); monitor patients for signs and symptoms of acute kidney injury. If acute kidney
`
`injury occurs, discontinue STEGLUJAN promptly and institute treatment.
`
`
`Ertugliflozin, a component of STEGLUJAN, increases serum creatinine and decreases eGFR.
`Patients with moderate renal impairment (eGFR 30 to less than 60 mL/min/1.73 m2) may be more
`
`
`susceptible to these changes. Renal function abnormalities can occur after initiating STEGLUJAN [see
`
`Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. Renal function should be evaluated prior to initiating STEGLUJAN and
`
`periodically thereafter. Use of STEGLUJAN is not recommended when eGFR is persistently between 30
`
`
`

`
`Novo Nordisk Exhibit 2466
`Mylan Pharms. Inc. v. Novo Nordisk A/S
`IPR2023-00724
`Page 00004
`
`
`
`and less than 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 and is contraindicated in patients with an eGFR less than 30
`
` mL/min/1.73 m2 [see Dosage and Administration (2.2), Contraindications (4), and Use in Specific
`
`
`Populations (8.6)].
`There have been postmarketing reports with sitagliptin of worsening renal function, including acute
`
`renal failure, sometimes requiring dialysis. A subset of these reports involved patients with renal
`
`
`insufficiency, some of whom were prescribed inappropriate doses of sitagliptin. A return to baseline levels
`
`
`
`of renal insufficiency has been observed with supportive treatment and discontinuation of potentially
`
`causative agents. Consideration can be given to cautiously reinitiating STEGLUJAN if another etiology is
`
`
`deemed likely to have precipitated the acute worsening of renal function.
`Sitagliptin has not been found to be nephrotoxic in preclinical studies at clinically relevant doses, or
`
`
`
`in clinical trials.
`
`5.5 Urosepsis and Pyelonephritis
`
`There have been postmarketing reports of serious urinary tract infections, including urosepsis and
`
`
`pyelonephritis, requiring hospitalization in patients receiving medicines containing SGLT2 inhibitors.
`
`
`
`Cases of pyelonephritis also have been reported in ertugliflozin-treated patients in clinical trials.
`
`Treatment with medicines containing SGLT2 inhibitors increases the risk for urinary tract infections.
`
`
`Evaluate patients for signs and symptoms of urinary tract infections and treat promptly, if indicated [see
`
`
`Adverse Reactions (6.1)].
`
`5.6 Lower Limb Amputation
`An increased risk for lower limb amputation (primarily of the toe) has been observed in clinical
`
`
`
`studies with another SGLT2 inhibitor. Across seven Phase 3 clinical trials in the ertugliflozin development
`
`
`program, non-traumatic lower limb amputations were reported in 1 (0.1%) patient in the comparator
`
`group, 3 (0.2%) patients in the ertugliflozin 5 mg group, and 8 (0.5%) patients in the ertugliflozin 15 mg
`
`group. A causal association between ertugliflozin and lower limb amputation has not been definitively
`
`
`established.
`Before initiating STEGLUJAN, consider factors in the patient history that may predispose them to
`
`
`the need for amputations, such as a history of prior amputation, peripheral vascular disease, neuropathy
`
`and diabetic foot ulcers. Counsel patients about the importance of routine preventative foot care. Monitor
`
`patients receiving STEGLUJAN for signs and symptoms of infection (including osteomyelitis), new pain or
`
`tenderness, sores or ulcers involving the lower limbs, and discontinue STEGLUJAN if these complications
`
`occur.
`
`5.7 Heart Failure
`An association between dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor treatment and heart failure has
`
`
`been observed in cardiovascular outcomes trials for two other members of the DPP-4 inhibitor class.
`
`These trials evaluated patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.
`
`
`
`Consider the risks and benefits of STEGLUJAN prior to initiating treatment in patients at risk for heart
`
`
`failure, such as those with a prior history of heart failure and a history of renal impairment, and observe
`
`
`these patients for signs and symptoms of heart failure during therapy. Advise patients of the characteristic
`
`
`
`
`symptoms of heart failure and to immediately report such symptoms. If heart failure develops, evaluate
`
`
`and manage according to current standards of care and consider discontinuation of STEGLUJAN.
`
`
`5.8 Hypoglycemia with Concomitant Use with Insulin and Insulin Secretagogues
`Insulin and insulin secretagogues (e.g., sulfonylurea) are known to cause hypoglycemia.
`Ertugliflozin, a component of STEGLUJAN, may increase the risk of hypoglycemia when used in
`
`combination with insulin and/or an insulin secretagogue [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. When sitagliptin, a
`
`
`
`component of STEGLUJAN, was used in combination with a sulfonylurea or with insulin, medications
`
`known to cause hypoglycemia, the incidence of hypoglycemia was increased over that of placebo used in
`
`combination with a sulfonylurea or with insulin. [See Adverse Reactions (6.1).] Therefore, a lower dose of
`
`
`insulin or insulin secretagogue may be required to minimize the risk of hypoglycemia when used in
`
`
`combination with STEGLUJAN.

`IPR2023-00724
`Page 00005
`
`
`
`5.9 Genital Mycotic Infections
`Ertugliflozin, a component of STEGLUJAN, increases the risk of genital mycotic infections. Patients
`
`
`
`who have a history of genital mycotic infections or who are uncircumcised are more likely to develop
`
`
`genital mycotic infections [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. Monitor and treat appropriately.
`
`
`5.10 Hypersensitivity Reactions
`There have been postmarketing reports of serious hypersensitivity reactions in patients treated with
`
`sitagliptin, a component of STEGLUJAN. These reactions include anaphylaxis, angioedema, and
`
`exfoliative skin conditions including Stevens-Johnson syndrome. Onset of these reactions occurred within
`
`the first 3 months after initiation of treatment with sitagliptin, with some reports occurring after the first
`dose. If a hypersensitivity reaction is suspected, discontinue STEGLUJAN, assess for other potential
`
`
`causes for the event, and institute alternative treatment for diabetes. [See Adverse Reactions (6.2).]
`Angioedema has also been reported with other dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors. Use
`
`caution in a patient with a history of angioedema with another DPP-4 inhibitor because it is unknown
`
`
`
`
`
`whether such patients will be predisposed to angioedema with STEGLUJAN.
`
`
`5.11 Increases in Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C)
`Dose-related increases in LDL-C can occur with ertugliflozin, a component of STEGLUJAN [see
`Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. Monitor and treat as appropriate.
`
`5.12 Severe and Disabling Arthralgia
`There have been postmarketing reports of severe and disabling arthralgia in patients taking DPP-4
`inhibitors. The time to onset of symptoms following initiation of drug therapy varied from one day to years.
`
`
`
`
`Patients experienced relief of symptoms upon discontinuation of the medication. A subset of patients
`
`experienced a recurrence of symptoms when restarting the same drug or a different DPP-4 inhibitor.
`
`
`Consider DPP-4 inhibitors as a possible cause for severe joint pain and discontinue drug if appropriate.
`
`
`5.13 Bullous Pemphigoid
`Postmarketing cases of bullous pemphigoid requiring hospitalization have been reported with DPP
`
`4
`topical or systemic
`inhibitor use.
`In
`reported cases, patients
`typically
`recovered with
`
`immunosuppressive treatment and discontinuation of the DPP-4 inhibitor. Tell patients to report
`
`development of blisters or erosions while receiving STEGLUJAN. If bullous pemphigoid is suspected,
`
`
`STEGLUJAN should be discontinued and referral to a dermatologist should be considered for diagnosis
`
`and appropriate treatment.
`
`5.14 Macrovascular Outcomes
`There have been no clinical studies establishing conclusive evidence of macrovascular risk
`
`
`
`reduction with STEGLUJAN.

`
`6.1 Clinical Trials Experience
`
`
`
`Because clinical trials 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.
`
`Ertugliflozin and Sitagliptin
`The safety of concomitantly administered ertugliflozin and sitagliptin has been evaluated in
`
`
`
`990 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus treated for 26 weeks in three studies; a factorial study of
`
`
`ertugliflozin 5 mg or 15 mg in combination with sitagliptin 100 mg once daily compared to the individual
`
`components, a placebo-controlled study of ertugliflozin 5 mg or 15 mg as add-on therapy to sitagliptin
`
`100 mg and metformin once daily, and a placebo-controlled study of initial therapy with ertugliflozin 5 mg
`
`
`or 15 mg once daily in combination with sitagliptin 100 mg once daily [see Clinical Studies (14)]. The
`
`
`
`
`incidence and type of adverse reactions in these three studies were similar to the adverse reactions seen
`
`
`
`
`with ertugliflozin and described below in Table 1.
`
`Ertugliflozin
`Pool of Placebo-Controlled Trials
`
`The data in Table 1 are derived from a pool of three 26-week, placebo-controlled trials. Ertugliflozin
`
`was used as monotherapy in one trial and as add-on therapy in two trials [see Clinical Studies (14)].
`
`These data reflect exposure of 1,029 patients to ertugliflozin with a mean exposure duration of
`
`approximately 25 weeks. Patients received ertugliflozin 5 mg (N=519), ertugliflozin 15 mg (N=510), or
`
`placebo (N=515) once daily. The mean age of the population was 57 years and 2% were older than
`
`
`75 years of age. Fifty-three percent (53%) of the population was male and 73% were Caucasian, 15%
`
`were Asian, and 7% were Black or African American. At baseline the population had diabetes for an
`average of 7.5 years, had a mean HbA1c of 8.1%, and 19.4% had established microvascular
`
`complications of diabetes. Baseline renal function (mean eGFR 88.9 mL/min/1.73 m2) was normal or
`
`mildly impaired in 97% of patients and moderately impaired in 3% of patients.
`
`
`Table 1 shows common adverse reactions associated with the use of ertugliflozin. These adverse
`
`reactions were not present at baseline, occurred more commonly on ertugliflozin than on placebo, and
`
`
`occurred in at least 2% of patients treated with either ertugliflozin 5 mg or ertugliflozin 15 mg.

`
`Þ
`
`Volume Depletion
`
`Ertugliflozin causes an osmotic diuresis, which may lead to intravascular volume contraction and
`
`
`adverse reactions related to volume depletion, particularly in patients with impaired renal function (eGFR
`less than 60 mL/min/1.73 m2). In patients with moderate renal impairment, adverse reactions related to
`
`
`
`volume depletion (e.g., dehydration, dizziness postural, presyncope, syncope, hypotension, and
`
`orthostatic hypotension) were reported in 0%, 4.4%, and 1.9% of patients treated with placebo,
`
`ertugliflozin 5 mg, and ertugliflozin 15 mg, respectively. Ertugliflozin may also increase the risk of
`hypotension in other patients at risk for volume contraction [see Use in Specific Populations (8.5, 8.6)].
`
`
`Ketoacidosis
`Across the clinical program, ketoacidosis was identified in 3 of 3,409 (0.1%) ertugliflozin-treated
`
`
`
`
`patients and 0.0% of comparator-treated patients [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)].
`
`
`Impairment in Renal Function
`Treatment with ertugliflozin was associated with increases in serum creatinine and decreases in
`
`eGFR (see Table 2). Patients with moderate renal impairment at baseline had larger mean changes. In a
`
`
`study in patients with moderate renal impairment, these abnormal laboratory findings were observed to
`
`
`
`reverse after treatment discontinuation [see Use in Specific Populations (8.5, 8.6)].
