REACTIONS The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in labeling: Diarrhea [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ]

Weight

Loss [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] Vomiting [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ] The most common adverse reactions (that occurred in at least 10% of DAYBUE-treated patients and at least 2% greater than in placebo) were diarrhea and vomiting. ( 6.1 ) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Acadia Pharmaceuticals Inc. at 1-844-422-2342 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch .

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. In controlled and uncontrolled trials in patients with Rett syndrome, 260 patients ages 2 to 40 years were treated with DAYBUE, including 109 patients treated for more than 6 months, 69 patients treated for more than 1 year, and 4 patients treated for more than 2 years. The safety of DAYBUE STIX has been established from an adequate, well-controlled study, and open-label studies of DAYBUE <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Clinical Studies (14) ]</span> . Below is a display of the adverse reactions of DAYBUE in these studies. Adult and Pediatric Patients with Rett Syndrome 5 Years of Age and Older The safety of DAYBUE was evaluated in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 12-week study of patients with Rett syndrome (Study 1) <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Clinical Studies (14) ]</span> .

In Study

1, 93 patients received DAYBUE and 94 patients received placebo. All patients were female, 92% were White, and the mean age was 11 years (range 5 to 20 years).

Adverse Reactions

Leading to Discontinuation of Treatment Eighteen patients (19%) receiving DAYBUE had adverse reactions that led to withdrawal from the study. The most common adverse reaction leading to discontinuation of treatment with DAYBUE was diarrhea (15%).

Common Adverse Reactions

Adverse reactions that occurred in Study 1 in at least 5% of patients treated with DAYBUE and were at least 2% more frequent than in patients on placebo are presented in Table 5 .

Table

5 Adverse Reactions in at Least 5% of Patients Treated with DAYBUE and at Least 2% Greater than Placebo in Study 1 Adverse Reaction DAYBUE (N=93) % Placebo (N=94) % Diarrhea 82 20 Vomiting 29 12 Fever 9 4 Seizure 9 6 Anxiety 8 1 Decreased appetite 8 2 Fatigue 8 2 Nasopharyngitis 5 1 Pediatric Patients with Rett Syndrome 2 to 4 Years of Age In an open-label study in pediatric patients 2 to 4 years of age with Rett syndrome, a total of 13 patients received DAYBUE for at least 12 weeks and 9 patients received DAYBUE for at least 6 months. Adverse reactions in pediatric patients 2 to 4 years of age treated with DAYBUE were similar to those reported in adult and pediatric patients 5 years of age and older with Rett syndrome in Study 1.

6.2 Postmarketing Experience The following adverse reactions have been identified during postapproval use of DAYBUE. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure. Aspiration and aspiration pneumonia secondary to vomiting <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ]</span> .

AND PRECAUTIONS Diarrhea: Most patients experience diarrhea during treatment with DAYBUE. Advise patients to stop laxatives before starting DAYBUE or DAYBUE STIX. If diarrhea occurs, patients should start antidiarrheal treatment, increase oral fluids, and notify their healthcare provider. Interrupt, reduce dose, or discontinue DAYBUE or DAYBUE STIX if severe diarrhea occurs or if dehydration is suspected. ( 2.4 , 5.1 )

Weight

Loss: Weight loss may occur in patients treated with DAYBUE or DAYBUE STIX. Monitor weight and interrupt, reduce dose, or discontinue DAYBUE or DAYBUE STIX if significant weight loss occurs. ( 2.4 , 5.2 ) Vomiting: Aspiration and aspiration pneumonia have occurred after vomiting in patients treated with DAYBUE. Interrupt, reduce dose, or discontinue DAYBUE or DAYBUE STIX if vomiting is severe or occurs despite medical management. ( 2.5 , 5.3 )

5.1 Diarrhea In Study 1 <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Clinical Studies (14) ]</span> and in long-term studies, 85% of patients treated with DAYBUE experienced diarrhea. In those treated with DAYBUE, 49% either had persistent diarrhea or recurrence after resolution despite dose interruptions, reductions, or concomitant antidiarrheal therapy. Diarrhea severity was of mild or moderate severity in 96% of cases.

In Study

1, antidiarrheal medication was used in 51% of patients treated with DAYBUE. Advise patients to stop laxatives before starting DAYBUE or DAYBUE STIX. If diarrhea occurs, patients should notify their healthcare provider, consider starting antidiarrheal treatment, and monitor hydration status and increase oral fluids, if needed. Interrupt, reduce dose, or discontinue DAYBUE or DAYBUE STIX if severe diarrhea occurs or if dehydration is suspected [see Dosage and Administration (2.4) ] .

5.2 Weight Loss In Study 1, 12% of patients treated with DAYBUE experienced weight loss of greater than 7% from baseline, compared to 4% of patients who received placebo. In long-term studies, 2.2% of patients discontinued treatment with DAYBUE due to weight loss. Monitor weight and interrupt, reduce dose, or discontinue DAYBUE or DAYBUE STIX if significant weight loss occurs <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Dosage and Administration (2.4) ]</span> .

5.3 Vomiting In Study 1, vomiting occurred in 29% of patients treated with DAYBUE and in 12% of patients who received placebo <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ]</span>. Patients with Rett syndrome are at risk for aspiration and aspiration pneumonia. Aspiration and aspiration pneumonia have been reported following vomiting in patients being treated with DAYBUE. Interrupt, reduce dose, or discontinue DAYBUE or DAYBUE STIX if vomiting is severe or occurs despite medical management <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Dosage and Administration (2.5) ]</span> .

INTERACTIONS Orally administered CYP3A and/or P-gp sensitive substrates for which a small change in substrate plasma concentration may lead to serious adverse reactions: closely monitor for adverse reactions with concomitant use. ( 7.1 )

7.1 Effect of DAYBUE and DAYBUE STIX on Other Drugs CYP3A and/or P-gp Substrates Closely monitor patients when DAYBUE or DAYBUE STIX is administered concomitantly with sensitive CYP3A and/or P-gp substrates where minimal increases in the plasma concentration of these substrates may lead to serious adverse reactions. Trofinetide, a weak inhibitor of CYP3A and an inhibitor of P-gp, increased the plasma concentrations of CYP3A and/or P-gp substrates <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]</span> , which may increase the risk of adverse reactions associated with these substrates.
