  • Follistim AQ Cartridge should be used only by physicians who are experienced in infertility treatment. Follistim AQ Cartridge contains a potent gonadotropic substance capable of causing Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome (OHSS) with or without pulmonary or vascular complications and multiple births . Gonadotropin therapy requires the availability of appropriate monitoring facilities.
  • Careful attention should be given to the diagnosis of infertility and in the selection of candidates for Follistim AQ Cartridge therapy .
  • Switching to Follistim AQ Cartridge from other brands (manufacturer), types (recombinant, urinary), and/or methods of administration (Follistim Pen, conventional syringe) may necessitate an adjustment of the dose n
  • Treatment with Follistim AQ may result in:
  • Abnormal Ovarian Enlargement: Monitor ovarian response carefully. ()
  • Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome (OHSS): Follow current clinical practice for reducing the risk of OHSS during IVF or ICSI. Adherence to recommended dose and treatment regimen and careful monitoring of ovarian response is important to reduce the risk. The OHSS risk increases with 18 or more follicles of 11 mm or more in diameter. If OHSS develops, standard management should be implemented. ()
  • Pulmonary and Vascular Complications: Before treatment with Follistim AQ Cartridge, weigh benefits versus risk in women with generally recognized risk factors for thromboembolic events. Pregnancy itself may increase this risk. ()
  • Ovarian Torsion: Diagnose and treat immediately. ()
  • Multi-fetal Gestation and Birth: Advise patients of the potential risks associated with multiple births. ()
  • Congenital Anomalies: Slightly higher incidence after IVF or ICSI than spontaneous conception that may be due to parental characteristics or multiple pregnancies. ()
  • Ectopic Pregnancy: Monitor for possible extrauterine pregnancy. ()
  • Spontaneous Abortion: Reported for all gonadotropin treatments, including Follistim AQ Cartridge. ()
  • Ovarian and Other Reproductive System Neoplasms: Reported for all gonadotropin treatments, including Follistim AQ Cartridge. Increased risk of these tumors in women undergoing infertility treatment has not been established. ()
  • The following serious adverse reactions are discussed elsewhere in the labeling:
  • The most common adverse reactions (u22652%) in women undergoing ovulation induction are ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, ovarian cyst, abdominal discomfort, abdominal pain and lower abdominal pain. ()
  • The most common adverse reactions (u22652%) in women undergoing controlled ovarian stimulation as part of an IVF or ICSI cycle are pelvic discomfort, headache, ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, pelvic pain, nausea and fatigue. ()
  • The most common (u22652%) adverse reactions in men undergoing induction of spermatogenesis are headache, acne, injection site reaction, injection site pain, gynecomastia, rash and dermoid cyst. ()
  • To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Merck Sharp & Dohme Corp., a subsidiary of Merck & Co., Inc., at 1-877-888-4231 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatchn
  • No drug-drug interaction studies have been performed.
  • Nursing Mothers: It is not known whether this drug is excreted in human milk. ()
  • Aside from the possibility of Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome and multiple gestations , there is no additional information concerning the consequences of acute overdosage with Follistim AQ Cartridge.
  • Follistim AQ Cartridge contains human follicle-stimulating hormone (hFSH), a glycoprotein hormone which is manufactured by recombinant DNA (rDNA) technology. The active drug substance, follitropin beta, has a dimeric structure containing two glycoprotein subunits (alpha and beta). Both the 92 amino acid alpha-chain and the 111 amino acid beta-chain have complex heterogeneous structures arising from two N-linked oligosaccharide chains. Follitropin beta is synthesized in a Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell line that has been transfected with a plasmid containing the two subunit DNA sequences encoding for hFSH. The purification process results in a highly purified preparation with a consistent hFSH isoform profile and high specific activity [as determined by the Ph. Eur. test for FSH bioactivity and on the basis of the molar extinction coefficient at 277 nm (u03b5:mgcm) = 1.066].
  • The biological activity is determined by measuring the increase in ovary weight in female rats. The intrinsic luteinizing hormone (LH) activity in follitropin beta is less than 1 international unit per 40,000 international units FSH. The compound is considered to contain no LH activity.
  • The amino acid sequence and tertiary structure of the product are indistinguishable from that of hFSH of urinary source. Also, based on available data derived from physico-chemical tests and bioassay, follitropin beta and follitropin alfa, another recombinant follicle-stimulating hormone product, are indistinguishable.
  • Follistim AQ Cartridge is a ready for use, prefilled with solution, disposable cartridge containing either 175 IU of follitropin beta in 0.210 mL (833 IU/mL), 350 IU in 0.420 mL (833 IU/mL), 650 IU in 0.780 mL (833 IU/mL) or 975 IU in 1.170 mL (833 IU/mL) of aqueous solution for multiple dose use, with a maximal deliverable dose of either 150 IU, 300 IU, 600 IU or 900 IU, respectively. Inactive ingredients in the cartridges include: benzyl alcohol NF 10 mg/mL; L-methionine USP 0.5 mg/mL; polysorbate 20 NF 0.2 mg/mL; sodium citrate (dihydrate) USP 14.7 mg/mL; sucrose NF 50 mg/mL; and water for injection USP. Hydrochloric acid NF and/or sodium hydroxide NF are used to adjust the pH to 7.
  • Follistim AQ Cartridge is for use only with the Follistim Pen, which features an adjustable dosing system for administering the drug in a microvolume of solution. The Follistim Pen with Follistim AQ Cartridge is intended for SUBCUTANEOUS USE ONLY. The recombinant protein in Follistim AQ Cartridge has been standardized for FSH bioactivity in terms of the WHO International Standard for Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) Recombinant, Human for Bioassay (code 92/642), issued by the World Health Organization Expert Committee on Biological Standardization (1995). Under current storage conditions, Follistim AQ may contain up to 11% of oxidized follitropin beta.
  • In clinical trials with Follistim, serum antibodies to FSH or anti-CHO cell derived proteins were not detected in any of the treated patients after exposure to Follistim for up to three cycles.
  • No data
  • Long-term toxicity studies in animals have not been performed with Follistim to evaluate the carcinogenic potential of the drug. Follistim was not mutagenic in the Ames test using and tester strains and did not produce chromosomal aberrations in an in vitro assay using human lymphocytes.
