`The intravitreal injection procedure should be carried out under controlled aseptic conditions,
`which include surgical hand disinfection and the use of sterile gloves, a sterile drape, and a
`
`sterile eyelid speculum (or equivalent). Adequate anesthesia and a topical broad–spectrum
`microbicide should be given prior to the injection.
`Pre-filled syringe: Inject by pressing the plunger carefully and with constant pressure. Do not
`
`apply additional pressure once the plunger has reached the bottom of the syringe. A small
`residual volume may remain in the syringe after a full dose has been injected. This is normal. Do
`
`not administer any residual solution observed in the syringe.

`Page 13
`
`Immediately following the intravitreal injection, patients should be monitored for elevation in
`intraocular pressure. Appropriate monitoring may consist of a check for perfusion of the optic
`nerve head or tonometry. If required, a sterile paracentesis needle should be available.
`
`
`Following intravitreal injection, patients and/or caregivers should be instructed to report any
`signs and/or symptoms suggestive of endophthalmitis or retinal detachment (e.g., eye pain,
`
`redness of the eye, photophobia, blurring of vision) without delay [see Patient Counseling
`
`Information (17)].
`
`
`Each sterile, pre-filled syringe or vial should only be used for the treatment of a single eye. If the
`contralateral eye requires treatment, a new sterile, pre-filled syringe or vial should be used and
`the sterile field, syringe, gloves, drapes, eyelid speculum, filter, and injection needles should be
`changed before EYLEA is administered to the other eye.
`
`After injection, any unused product must be discarded.
`
`Neovascular (Wet) Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD)
`2.5
`The recommended dose for EYLEA is 2 mg (0.05 mL or 50 microliters) administered by
`intravitreal injection every 4 weeks (approximately every 28 days, monthly) for the first
`12 weeks (3 months), followed by 2 mg (0.05 mL) via intravitreal injection once every 8 weeks
`(2 months). Although EYLEA may be dosed as frequently as 2 mg every 4 weeks
`(approximately every 25 days, monthly), additional efficacy was not demonstrated in most
`patients when EYLEA was dosed every 4 weeks compared to every 8 weeks [see Clinical
`Studies (14.1)]. Some patients may need every 4 week (monthly) dosing after the first 12 weeks
`(3 months). Although not as effective as the recommended every 8 week dosing regimen,
`patients may also be treated with one dose every 12 weeks after one year of effective therapy.
`Patients should be assessed regularly.
`
`Macular Edema Following Retinal Vein Occlusion (RVO)
`2.6
`The recommended dose for EYLEA is 2 mg (0.05 mL or 50 microliters) administered by
`intravitreal injection once every 4 weeks (approximately every 25 days, monthly) [see
`Clinical Studies (14.2), (14.3)].
`
`Diabetic Macular Edema (DME)
`2.7
`The recommended dose for EYLEA is 2 mg (0.05 mL or 50 microliters) administered by
`intravitreal injection every 4 weeks (approximately every 28 days, monthly) for the first
`5 injections, followed by 2 mg (0.05 mL) via intravitreal injection once every 8 weeks
`(2 months). Although EYLEA may be dosed as frequently as 2 mg every 4 weeks
`(approximately every 25 days, monthly), additional efficacy was not demonstrated in most
`patients when EYLEA was dosed every 4 weeks compared to every 8 weeks [see Clinical
`Studies (14.4)]. Some patients may need every 4 week (monthly) dosing after the first 20 weeks
`(5 months).

`Studies (14.5)]. Some patients may need every 4 week (monthly) dosing after the first 20 weeks
`(5 months).
`
`Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP)
`2.9
`Recommended Dosage
`
`The recommended dose for EYLEA is 0.4 mg (0.01 mL or 10 microliters) administered by
`intravitreal injection. Treatment is initiated with a single injection per eligible eye and may be
`
`given bilaterally on the same day. Injections may be repeated in each eye. The treatment interval
`between doses injected into the same eye should be at least 10 days [see Clinical Pharmacology
`
`(12.3) and Clinical Studies (14.6)].
`
`Administration Instructions in Pre-Term Infants with ROP
`
`The intravitreal injection procedure should be carried out under controlled aseptic conditions,
`which include surgical hand disinfection and the use of sterile gloves, a sterile drape, and a
`
`sterile eyelid speculum (or equivalent). Adequate anesthesia and a topical broad–spectrum
`microbicide should be given prior to the injection.
`
`Immediately following the intravitreal injection, patients should be monitored for elevation in
`intraocular pressure. Appropriate monitoring may consist of a check for perfusion of the optic
`nerve head or tonometry. If required, a sterile paracentesis needle should be available.
`
`
`Following intravitreal injection, patients and/or caregivers should be instructed to report any
`signs and/or symptoms suggestive of endophthalmitis or retinal detachment (e.g., eye pain,
`
`redness of the eye, photophobia, blurring of vision) without delay [see Patient Counseling
`
`Information (17)].
`
`Each sterile vial should only be used for the treatment of a single eye. Do not use the EYLEA
`
`pre-filled syringe for the treatment of ROP. If the contralateral eye requires treatment, a new
`sterile vial should be used and the sterile field, syringe, gloves, drapes, eyelid speculum, filter,
`and injection needles should be changed before EYLEA is administered to the other eye.
`
`Follow steps 1-10 listed in 2.3 Preparation for Administration – Vial.
`
`To eliminate all of the bubbles and to expel excess drug, SLOWLY depress the plunger rod so
`that the plunger edge aligns with the line that marks 0.01 mL on the syringe (see Figure 13a and
`
`Reference ID: 5121900

`
`WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
`
`Endophthalmitis and Retinal Detachments
`5.1
`Intravitreal injections, including those with EYLEA, have been associated with endophthalmitis
`and retinal detachments [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. Proper aseptic injection technique must
`always be used when administering EYLEA. Patients and/or caregivers should be instructed to
`
`
`report any signs and/or symptoms suggestive of endophthalmitis or retinal detachment without
`delay and should be managed appropriately [see Dosage and Administration (2.4) and
`Patient Counseling Information (17)].
`
`Increase in Intraocular Pressure
`5.2
`Acute increases in intraocular pressure have been seen within 60 minutes of intravitreal injection,
`
`including with EYLEA [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. Sustained increases in intraocular pressure
`have also been reported after repeated intravitreal dosing with vascular endothelial growth factor
`(VEGF) inhibitors. Intraocular pressure and the perfusion of the optic nerve head should be
`monitored and managed appropriately [see Dosage and Administration (2.4)].
`
`Extended Monitoring and Additional Treatment in ROP
`5.3
`Reactivation of abnormal angiogenesis and tortuosity may occur following treatment with
`EYLEA. Infants should be monitored closely after injection with EYLEA until retinal
`vascularization has completed or until the examiner is assured that reactivation of ROP will not
`occur. In infants with ROP, treatment with EYLEA will necessitate extended periods of ROP
`monitoring and additional EYLEA injections and/or laser treatments may be necessary.
`
`Thromboembolic Events
`5.4
`There is a potential risk of arterial thromboembolic events (ATEs) following intravitreal use of
`VEGF inhibitors, including EYLEA. ATEs are defined as nonfatal stroke, nonfatal myocardial
`infarction, or vascular death (including deaths of unknown cause). The incidence of reported
`thromboembolic events in wet AMD studies during the first year was 1.8% (32 out of 1824) in
`the combined group of patients treated with EYLEA compared with 1.5% (9 out of 595) in
`patients treated with ranibizumab; through 96 weeks, the incidence was 3.3% (60 out of 1824) in
`the EYLEA group compared with 3.2% (19 out of 595) in the ranibizumab group. The incidence
`in the DME studies from baseline to week 52 was 3.3% (19 out of 578) in the combined group of

`
`ADVERSE REACTIONS
`
`The following potentially serious adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling:
`
`Hypersensitivity [see Contraindications (4.3)]
`
`
`
`Endophthalmitis and retinal detachments [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]
`
`
`Increase in intraocular pressure [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)]
`
`
`Thromboembolic events [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4)]
`
`
`Clinical Trials Experience
`6.1
`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 other clinical trials
`of the same or another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.
`
`
`
`A total of 2980 adult patients treated with EYLEA constituted the safety population in eight
`phase 3 studies. Among those, 2379 patients were treated with the recommended dose of 2 mg.
`
`
`Serious adverse reactions related to the injection procedure have occurred in <0.1% of
`intravitreal injections with EYLEA including endophthalmitis and retinal detachment. The most
`
`
`common adverse reactions (≥5%) reported in patients receiving EYLEA were conjunctival
`
`hemorrhage, eye pain, cataract, vitreous detachment, vitreous floaters, and intraocular pressure
`increased.
`
`Neovascular (Wet) Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD)
`The data described below reflect exposure to EYLEA in 1824 patients with wet AMD, including
`1223 patients treated with the 2-mg dose, in 2 double-masked, controlled clinical studies
`(VIEW1 and VIEW2) for 24 months (with active control in year 1) [see Clinical Studies (14.1)].
`
`Safety data observed in the EYLEA group in a 52-week, double-masked, Phase 2 study were
`consistent with these results.

`
`Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP)
`The data described below reflect exposure to EYLEA in 168 pre-term infants with ROP
`
`randomized to EYLEA and treated with the 0.4 mg dose in 2 clinical studies (BUTTERFLEYE
`and FIREFLEYE/FIREFLEYE NEXT) from time of first administration up to 52 weeks of
`
