Drug Interactions (FDA Label)

INTERACTIONS Strong CYP3A4 I nducers: Increase CRENESSITY morning and evening dosage 2-fold. (Section 2.3 , 7.1 ) Moderate CYP3A4 Inducers: Increase CRENESSITY evening dosage 2-fold. ( 2.4 , 7.1 )

7.1 Effects of Other Drugs on CRENESSITY Strong CYP3A4 Inducers Increase CRENESSITY morning and evening dosages 2-fold when CRENESSITY is used concomitantly with a strong CYP3A4 inducer <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Dosage and Administration ( 2.3 )]</span>. Moderate CYP3A4 Inducers Increase CRENESSITY evening dosage 2-fold when CRENESSITY is used concomitantly with a moderate CYP3A4 inducer. Do not increase the morning dosage <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Dosage and Administration ( 2.4 )]</span>. Mechanism of Drug Interaction and Clinical Effect CRENESSITY is a CYP3A4 substrate. Concomitant use of CRENESSITY with a strong or moderate CYP3A4 inducer decreases crinecerfont exposure <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 ) ]</span>, which may reduce CRENESSITY efficacy.

Contraindications

CRENESSITY is contraindicated in patients with hypersensitivity to crinecerfont or any excipients of CRENESSITY. Reactions have included throat tightness, angioedema, and generalized rash [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )] . Hypersensitivity to crinecerfont or any excipients of CRENESSITY. ( 4 )

Related Warnings

AND PRECAUTIONS Hypersensitivity Reactions: Include throat tightness, angioedema, and generalized rash. If clinically significant hypersensitivity occurs, initiate appropriate therapy and discontinue CRENESSITY. ( 5.1 ) Risk of Acute Adrenal Insufficiency or Adrenal Crisis with Inadequate Concomitant Glucocorticoid Therapy: Continue glucocorticoids upon initiation of and during treatment with CRENESSITY. Do not reduce the glucocorticoid dose below the dose required for cortisol replacement. Any adjustment of daily glucocorticoid dosage after initiation of CRENESSITY should be performed under the supervision of a health care provider. Use glucocorticoid stress doses in cases of increased cortisol need (e.g., acute intercurrent illness, serious trauma, surgical procedures). ( 5.2 )

5.1 Hypersensitivity Reactions A hypersensitivity reaction, including throat tightness, angioedema, and generalized rash, occurred in a subject after 3 days of treatment with CRENESSITY. If a clinically significant hypersensitivity reaction occurs, initiate appropriate therapy and discontinue CRENESSITY. 5. 2 Risk of Acute Adrenal Insufficiency or Adrenal Crisis w ith Inadequate Concomitant Glucocorticoid Therapy Continue glucocorticoids upon initiation of and during treatment with CRENESSITY. Do not reduce the glucocorticoid dose below the dose required for cortisol replacement. Acute adrenal insufficiency or adrenal crisis, which can potentially be fatal or life-threatening, can occur in patients with underlying adrenal insufficiency who are on inadequate daily glucocorticoid doses, especially in situations associated with increased cortisol need, such as acute intercurrent illness, serious trauma, or surgical procedures. Any adjustment of daily glucocorticoid dosage after initiation of CRENESSITY should be performed under the supervision of a health care provider. Use glucocorticoid stress doses in case of increased cortisol need (e.g., acute intercurrent illness, serious trauma, surgical procedures ). In the placebo-controlled clinical study of adults with classic CAH, the incidence of adrenal crisis was 1.6% in subjects treated with CRENESSITY and 0% in subjects treated with placebo. In the placebo-controlled clinical study of pediatric subjects with classic CAH, there were no events of adrenal crisis.
