2.1 General Dosing Information Fosamprenavir calcium tablets may be taken with or without food. Adults should take fosamprenavir calcium oral suspension without food. Pediatric patients should take fosamprenavir calcium oral suspension with food <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]</span> . If emesis occurs within 30 minutes after dosing, re-dosing of fosamprenavir calcium oral suspension should occur. Higher-than-approved dose combinations of fosamprenavir calcium tablets plus ritonavir are not recommended due to an increased risk of transaminase elevations <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Overdosage (10)]</span> . When fosamprenavir calcium tablets are used in combination with ritonavir, prescribers should consult the full prescribing information for ritonavir.

2.2 Adults Therapy-Naive Adults Fosamprenavir calcium tablets 1,400 mg twice daily (without ritonavir). Fosamprenavir calcium tablets 1,400 mg once daily plus ritonavir 200 mg once daily. Fosamprenavir calcium tablets 1,400 mg once daily plus ritonavir 100 mg once daily. Fosamprenavir calcium tablets 700 mg twice daily plus ritonavir 100 mg twice daily. Dosing of fosamprenavir calcium tablets 1,400 mg once daily plus ritonavir 100 mg once daily is supported by pharmacokinetic data <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]</span> . Dosing of fosamprenavir calcium tablets 700 mg twice daily plus ritonavir 100 mg twice daily is supported by pharmacokinetic and safety data <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]</span> .

Protease

Inhibitor-Experienced Adults Fosamprenavir calcium tablets 700 mg twice daily plus ritonavir 100 mg twice daily.

Pregnancy

Fosamprenavir calcium tablets 700 mg twice daily plus ritonavir 100 mg twice daily. Dosing of fosamprenavir calcium tablets 700 mg twice daily plus ritonavir 100 mg twice daily should only be considered in pregnant patients who are already on a stable twice-daily regimen of fosamprenavir calcium /ritonavir 700 mg/100 mg prior to pregnancy and who are virologically suppressed (HIV-1 RNA less than 50 copies per mL). Lower exposures of amprenavir were observed during pregnancy; therefore, viral load should be monitored closely to ensure viral suppression is maintained [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1), Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]. Data regarding use of other regimens of fosamprenavir calcium tablets (with or without ritonavir) in pregnancy are not available.

2.3 Pediatric Patients (Aged at Least 4 Weeks to 18 Years) The recommended dosage of fosamprenavir calcium in patients aged at least 4 weeks to 18 years should be calculated based on body weight (kg) and should not exceed the recommended adult dose (Table 1).

Fosamprenavir calcium should only be administered to infants born at 38 weeks’ gestation or greater and who have attained a postnatal age of 28 days. For pediatric patients, pharmacokinetic and clinical data: do not support once-daily dosing of fosamprenavir calcium alone or in combination with ritonavir [see Clinical Studies (14.3)] . do not support administration of fosamprenavir calcium alone or in combination with ritonavir for protease inhibitor-experienced children younger than 6 months [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)] . do not support twice-daily dosing of fosamprenavir calcium without ritonavir in pediatric patients younger than 2 years [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)] .

Other Dosing Considerations

When administered without ritonavir, the adult regimen of fosamprenavir calcium tablets 1,400 mg twice daily may be used for pediatric patients weighing at least 47 kg. When administered in combination with ritonavir, fosamprenavir calcium tablets may be used for pediatric patients weighing at least 39 kg; ritonavir capsules may be used for pediatric patients weighing at least 33 kg.

2.4 Patients with Hepatic Impairment See Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) .

Mild Hepatic

Impairment (Child-Pugh Score Ranging from 5 to 6) Fosamprenavir calcium tablets should be used with caution at a reduced dosage of 700 mg twice daily without ritonavir (therapy-naive) or 700 mg twice daily plus ritonavir 100 mg once daily (therapy-naive or protease inhibitor-experienced).

Moderate Hepatic

Impairment (Child-Pugh Score Ranging from 7 to 9) Fosamprenavir calcium tablets should be used with caution at a reduced dosage of 700 mg twice daily without ritonavir (therapy-naive) or 450 mg twice daily plus ritonavir 100 mg once daily (therapy-naive or protease inhibitor-experienced).

Severe Hepatic

Impairment (Child-Pugh Score Ranging from 10 to 15) Fosamprenavir calcium tablets should be used with caution at a reduced dosage of 350 mg twice daily without ritonavir (therapy-naive) or 300 mg twice daily plus ritonavir 100 mg once daily (therapy-naive or protease inhibitor-experienced). There are no data to support dosing recommendations for pediatric patients with hepatic impairment.

REACTIONS Severe or life-threatening skin reactions have been reported with the use of fosamprenavir calcium [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)]. The most common moderate to severe adverse reactions in clinical trials of fosamprenavir calcium were diarrhea, rash, nausea, vomiting, and headache. Treatment discontinuation due to adverse events occurred in 6.4% of subjects receiving fosamprenavir calcium and in 5.9% of subjects receiving comparator treatments. The most common adverse reactions leading to discontinuation of fosamprenavir calcium (incidence less than or equal to 1% of subjects) included diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, AST increased, ALT increased, and rash. In adults the most common adverse reactions (incidence greater than or equal to 4%) are diarrhea, rash, nausea, vomiting, and headache. (6.1) Vomiting and neutropenia were more frequent in pediatrics than in adults.

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 with rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in clinical practice.

Adult Trials

The data for the 3 active-controlled clinical trials described below reflect exposure of 700 HIV-1-infected subjects to fosamprenavir calcium tablets, including 599 subjects exposed to fosamprenavir calcium for greater than 24 weeks, and 409 subjects exposed for greater than 48 weeks. The population age ranged from 17 to 72 years. Of these subjects, 26% were female, 51% white, 31% black, 16% American Hispanic, and 70% were antiretroviral-naive. Sixty-one percent received fosamprenavir calcium 1,400 mg once daily plus ritonavir 200 mg once daily; 24% received fosamprenavir calcium 1,400 mg twice daily; and 15% received fosamprenavir calcium 700 mg twice daily plus ritonavir 100 mg twice daily. Selected adverse reactions reported during the clinical efficacy trials of fosamprenavir calcium are shown in Tables 2 and 3. Each table presents adverse reactions of moderate or severe intensity in subjects treated with combination therapy for up to 48 weeks.

Skin rash (without regard to causality) occurred in approximately 19% of subjects treated with fosamprenavir calcium in the pivotal efficacy trials. Rashes were usually maculopapular and of mild or moderate intensity, some with pruritus. Rash had a median onset of 11 days after initiation of fosamprenavir calcium and had a median duration of 13 days. Skin rash led to discontinuation of fosamprenavir calcium in less than 1% of subjects. In some subjects with mild or moderate rash, dosing with fosamprenavir calcium was often continued without interruption; if interrupted, reintroduction of fosamprenavir calcium generally did not result in rash recurrence. The percentages of subjects with Grade 3 or 4 laboratory abnormalities in the clinical efficacy trials of fosamprenavir calcium are presented in Tables 4 and 5.

Pediatric Trials

Fosamprenavir calcium with and without ritonavir was studied in 237 HIV-1-infected pediatric subjects aged at least 4 weeks to 18 years in 3 open-label trials; APV20002, APV20003, and APV29005 [see Clinical Studies (14.3)] . Vomiting and neutropenia occurred more frequently in pediatric subjects compared with adults. Other adverse events occurred with similar frequency in pediatric subjects compared with adults. The frequency of vomiting among pediatric subjects receiving fosamprenavir calcium twice daily with ritonavir was 20% in subjects aged at least 4 weeks to younger than 2 years and 36% in subjects aged 2 to 18 years compared with 10% in adults. The frequency of vomiting among pediatric subjects receiving fosamprenavir calcium twice daily without ritonavir was 60% in subjects aged 2 to 5 years compared with 16% in adults. The median duration of drug-related vomiting episodes in APV29005 was 1 day (range: 1 to 3 days), in APV20003 was 16 days (range: 1 to 38 days), and in APV20002 was 9 days (range: 4 to 13 days). Vomiting was treatment limiting in 4 pediatric subjects across all 3 trials. The incidence of Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia (neutrophils less than 750 cells per mm 3 ) seen in pediatric subjects treated with fosamprenavir calcium with and without ritonavir was higher (15%) than the incidence seen in adult subjects (3%).

Grade

3/4 neutropenia occurred in 10% (5 of 51) of subjects aged at least 4 weeks to younger than 2 years and 16% (28 of 170) of subjects aged 2 to 18 years.

6.2 Postmarketing Experience The following adverse reactions have been identified during postapproval use of fosamprenavir calcium. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of unknown size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure. These reactions have been chosen for inclusion due to a combination of their seriousness, frequency of reporting, or potential causal connection to fosamprenavir calcium.

AND PRECAUTIONS The concomitant use of fosamprenavir calcium with ritonavir and certain other drugs may result in known or potentially significant drug interactions. Consult the full prescribing information prior to and during treatment for potential drug interactions. (5.1, 7.3) Fosamprenavir calcium should be discontinued for severe skin reactions, including Stevens-Johnson syndrome. (5.2) Fosamprenavir calcium should be used with caution in patients with a known sulfonamide allergy. (5.3) Use of higher-than-approved doses may lead to transaminase elevations. Patients with hepatitis B or C are at increased risk of transaminase elevations. (5.4) Patients receiving fosamprenavir calcium may develop new onset or exacerbations of diabetes mellitus, hyperglycemia (5.5), immune reconstitution syndrome (5.6), increase of body fat (5.7), and elevated triglyceride and cholesterol concentrations (5.8). Monitor cholesterol and triglycerides prior to therapy and periodically thereafter. Acute hemolytic anemia has been reported with amprenavir. (5.9) Hemophilia: Spontaneous bleeding may occur, and additional factor VIII may be required. (5.10) Nephrolithiasis: Cases of nephrolithiasis have been reported with fosamprenavir. (5.11)

5.1 Risk of Serious Adverse Reactions Due to Drug Interactions Initiation of fosamprenavir calcium/ritonavir, a CYP3A inhibitor, in patients receiving medications metabolized by CYP3A, or initiation of medications metabolized by CYP3A in patients already receiving fosamprenavir calcium/ritonavir may increase plasma concentrations of medications metabolized by CYP3A. Initiation of medications that inhibit or induce CYP3A may increase or decrease concentrations of fosamprenavir calcium/ritonavir, respectively. These interactions may lead to: clinically significant adverse reactions, potentially leading to severe, life-threatening, or fatal events from greater exposures of concomitant medications. clinically significant adverse reactions from greater exposures of fosamprenavir calcium/ritonavir. loss of therapeutic effect of fosamprenavir calcium/ritonavir and possible development of resistance.

See Table

6 for steps to prevent or manage these possible and known significant drug interactions, including dosing recommendations [see Drug Interactions (7)] . Consider the potential for drug interactions prior to and during therapy with fosamprenavir calcium/ritonavir; review concomitant medications during therapy with fosamprenavir calcium/ritonavir, and monitor for the adverse reactions associated with the concomitant medications [see Contraindications (4), Drug Interactions (7)] .

5.2 Skin Reactions Severe and life-threatening skin reactions, including 1 case of Stevens-Johnson syndrome among 700 subjects treated with fosamprenavir calcium in clinical trials. Treatment with fosamprenavir calcium should be discontinued for severe or life-threatening rashes and for moderate rashes accompanied by systemic symptoms <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Adverse Reactions (6)]</span> .

5.3 Sulfa Allergy Fosamprenavir calcium should be used with caution in patients with a known sulfonamide allergy. Fosamprenavir contains a sulfonamide moiety. The potential for cross-sensitivity between drugs in the sulfonamide class and fosamprenavir is unknown. In a clinical trial of fosamprenavir calcium used as the sole protease inhibitor, rash occurred in 2 of 10 subjects (20%) with a history of sulfonamide allergy compared with 42 of 126 subjects (33%) with no history of sulfonamide allergy.

In

2 clinical trials of fosamprenavir calcium plus low-dose ritonavir, rash occurred in 8 of 50 subjects (16%) with a history of sulfonamide allergy compared with 50 of 412 subjects (12%) with no history of sulfonamide allergy.

5.4 Hepatic Toxicity Use of fosamprenavir calcium with ritonavir at higher-than-recommended dosages may result in transaminase elevations and should not be used <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Dosage and Administration (2), Overdosage (10)]</span> . Patients with underlying hepatitis B or C or marked elevations in transaminases prior to treatment may be at increased risk for developing or worsening of transaminase elevations. Appropriate laboratory testing should be conducted prior to initiating therapy with fosamprenavir calcium and patients should be monitored closely during treatment.

5.5 Diabetes/Hyperglycemia New onset diabetes mellitus, exacerbation of pre-existing diabetes mellitus, and hyperglycemia have been reported during postmarketing surveillance in HIV-1-infected patients receiving protease inhibitor therapy. Some patients required either initiation or dose adjustments of insulin or oral hypoglycemic agents for treatment of these events. In some cases, diabetic ketoacidosis has occurred. In those patients who discontinued protease inhibitor therapy, hyperglycemia persisted in some cases. Because these events have been reported voluntarily during clinical practice, estimates of frequency cannot be made and causal relationships between protease inhibitor therapy and these events have not been established.

5.6 Immune Reconstitution Syndrome Immune reconstitution syndrome has been reported in patients treated with combination antiretroviral therapy, including fosamprenavir calcium. During the initial phase of combination antiretroviral treatment, patients whose immune systems respond may develop an inflammatory response to indolent or residual opportunistic infections (such as Mycobacterium avium infection, cytomegalovirus, Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia [PCP], or tuberculosis), which may necessitate further evaluation and treatment. Autoimmune disorders (such as Graves’ disease, polymyositis, and Guillain-Barré syndrome) have also been reported to occur in the setting of immune reconstitution; however, the time to onset is more variable, and can occur many months after initiation of treatment.

5.7 Increase in Body Fat Increase of body fat has been observed in patients receiving protease inhibitors, including fosamprenavir calcium. The mechanism and long-term consequences of these events are currently unknown. A causal relationship has not been established.

5.8 Lipid Elevations Treatment with fosamprenavir calcium plus ritonavir has resulted in increases in the concentration of triglycerides and cholesterol <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Adverse Reactions (6)]</span> . Triglyceride and cholesterol testing should be performed prior to initiating therapy with fosamprenavir calcium and at periodic intervals during therapy. Lipid disorders should be managed as clinically appropriate <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Drug Interactions (7)]</span> .

5.9 Hemolytic Anemia Acute hemolytic anemia has been reported in a patient treated with amprenavir.

5.10 Patients with Hemophilia There have been reports of spontaneous bleeding in patients with hemophilia A and B treated with protease inhibitors. In some patients, additional factor VIII was required. In many of the reported cases, treatment with protease inhibitors was continued or restarted. A causal relationship between protease inhibitor therapy and these episodes has not been established.

5.11 Nephrolithiasis Cases of nephrolithiasis were reported during postmarketing surveillance in HIV-1-infected patients receiving fosamprenavir calcium. Because these events were reported voluntarily during clinical practice, estimates of frequency cannot be made. If signs or symptoms of nephrolithiasis occur, temporary interruption or discontinuation of therapy may be considered.

5.12 Resistance/Cross-Resistance Because the potential for HIV cross-resistance among protease inhibitors has not been fully explored, it is unknown what effect therapy with fosamprenavir calcium will have on the activity of subsequently administered protease inhibitors. Fosamprenavir calcium has been studied in patients who have experienced treatment failure with protease inhibitors <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Clinical Studies (14.2)]</span> .

INTERACTIONS

• Coadministration of fosamprenavir with drugs that induce CYP3A4 may decrease amprenavir (active metabolite) concentrations leading to potential loss of virologic activity. ( 7 , 12.3 )
• Coadministration with drugs that inhibit CYP3A4 may increase amprenavir concentrations. ( 7 , 12.3 )
• Coadministration of fosamprenavir or fosamprenavir and ritonavir may result in clinically significant interactions with drugs metabolized by CYP3A4. ( 7 )
• Coadministration of fosamprenavir and ritonavir may result in clinically significant interactions with drugs metabolized by CYP2D6. ( 7 )

7.1 Cytochrome P450 Inhibitors and Inducers Amprenavir, the active metabolite of fosamprenavir, is an inhibitor of CYP3A4 metabolism and therefore should not be administered concurrently with medications with narrow therapeutic windows that are substrates of CYP3A4. Data also suggest that amprenavir induces CYP3A4. Amprenavir is metabolized by CYP3A4. Coadministration of fosamprenavir and drugs that induce CYP3A4, such as rifampin, may decrease amprenavir concentrations and reduce its therapeutic effect. Coadministration of fosamprenavir and drugs that inhibit CYP3A4 may increase amprenavir concentrations and increase the incidence of adverse effects. The potential for drug interactions with fosamprenavir changes when fosamprenavir is coadministered with the potent CYP3A4 inhibitor ritonavir. The magnitude of CYP3A4-mediated drug interactions (effect on amprenavir or effect on coadministered drug) may change when fosamprenavir is coadministered with ritonavir. Because ritonavir is a CYP2D6 inhibitor, clinically significant interactions with drugs metabolized by CYP2D6 are possible when coadministered with fosamprenavir plus ritonavir. Ritonavir also appears to induce CYP3A, CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, and CYP2B6, as well as other enzymes, including glucuronosyl transferase. There are other agents that may result in serious and/or life-threatening drug interactions <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Contraindications (4) ]</span> .

7.2 Established and Other Potentially Significant Drug Interactions If fosamprenavir is used in combination with ritonavir, see full prescribing information for ritonavir for additional information on drug interactions <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Contraindications (4) , Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]</span> .

Drug Interaction

Studies [See Contraindications (4) , Warnings and Precautions (5.1) , Drug Interactions (7) .] Amprenavir, the active metabolite of fosamprenavir, is metabolized in the liver by the cytochrome P450 enzyme system. Amprenavir inhibits CYP3A4. Data also suggest that amprenavir induces CYP3A4. Caution should be used when coadministering medications that are substrates, inhibitors, or inducers of CYP3A4, or potentially toxic medications that are metabolized by CYP3A4. Amprenavir does not inhibit CYP2D6, CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2E1, or uridine glucuronosyltransferase (UDPGT). Amprenavir is both a substrate for and inducer of P-glycoprotein. Drug interaction trials were performed with fosamprenavir and other drugs likely to be coadministered or drugs commonly used as probes for pharmacokinetic interactions. The effects of coadministration on AUC, C max , and C min values are summarized in Table 10 (effect of other drugs on amprenavir) and Table 12 (effect of fosamprenavir on other drugs). In addition, since fosamprenavir delivers comparable amprenavir plasma concentrations as AGENERASE, drug interaction data derived from trials with AGENERASE are provided in Tables 11 and 13. For information regarding clinical recommendations, [see Drug Interactions (7) ] .
