Reduction in lesion growth rate through Month 301

Month 0-24 data include SYFOVRE patients who completed the OAKS and DERBY trials and enrolled in GALE. The first 6-month analysis of GALE used a projected sham that assumes linear growth rate from Months 24-30 (GALE Month 6) based on the average of the mean rate of change of each 6-month period of OAKS and DERBY sham treatment. This is a prespecified analysis with no statistical testing hierarchy.1

This GALE analysis compared first 6-month slope for patients who started treatment in GALE (previously received sham EOM or monthly in OAKS or DERBY through Month 24) vs average 6-month sham slope during OAKS and DERBY.1

GALE (N=790) is a multi-center, 36-month, Phase 3, open-label extension study to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of pegcetacoplan in subjects with geographic atrophy secondary to age-related macular degeneration. Patients enrolled in GALE include those who completed OAKS or DERBY after 24 months and 10 patients from Phase 1b Study 103. Patients with GA (atrophic nonexudative age-related macular degeneration) with or without subfoveal involvement, secondary to AMD were assigned to receive 15 mg/0.1 mL intravitreal SYFOVRE monthly or SYFOVRE every other month for 36 months. The first visit was required to be within 60 days of the final visit in OAKS and DERBY.1

EOM=every other month.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

CONTRAINDICATIONS

  • SYFOVRE is contraindicated in patients with ocular or periocular infections, and in patients with active intraocular inflammation

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

  • Endophthalmitis and Retinal Detachments
    • Intravitreal injections, including those with SYFOVRE, may be associated with endophthalmitis and retinal detachments. Proper aseptic injection technique must always be used when administering SYFOVRE to minimize the risk of endophthalmitis. Patients should be instructed to report any symptoms suggestive of endophthalmitis or retinal detachment without delay and should be managed appropriately.
  • Neovascular AMD
    • In clinical trials, use of SYFOVRE was associated with increased rates of neovascular (wet) AMD or choroidal neovascularization (12% when administered monthly, 7% when administered every other month and 3% in the control group) by Month 24. Patients receiving SYFOVRE should be monitored for signs of neovascular AMD. In case anti-Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (anti-VEGF) is required, it should be given separately from SYFOVRE administration.
  • Intraocular Inflammation
    • In clinical trials, use of SYFOVRE was associated with episodes of intraocular inflammation including: vitritis, vitreal cells, iridocyclitis, uveitis, anterior chamber cells, iritis, and anterior chamber flare. After inflammation resolves, patients may resume treatment with SYFOVRE.
  • Increased Intraocular Pressure
    • Acute increase in IOP may occur within minutes of any intravitreal injection, including with SYFOVRE. Perfusion of the optic nerve head should be monitored following the injection and managed as needed.

ADVERSE REACTIONS

  • Most common adverse reactions (incidence ≥5%) are ocular discomfort, neovascular age-related macular degeneration, vitreous floaters, conjunctival hemorrhage.

INDICATION

SYFOVRE® (pegcetacoplan injection) is indicated for the treatment of geographic atrophy (GA) secondary to age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

Please see full Prescribing Information for more information.
