  • In the event of overdosage, it is recommended that appropriate supportive treatment be initiated, as dictated by the patientu2019s clinical status, until resolution of the symptoms.

  • SIGNIFOR (pasireotide) injection is prepared as a sterile solution of pasireotide diaspartate in a tartaric acid buffer for administration by subcutaneous injection. SIGNIFOR is a somatostatin analog. Pasireotide diaspartate, chemically known as (2-Aminoethyl)u00a0carbamic acid (2R,5S,8S,11S,14R,17S,19aS)-11-(4-aminobutyl)-5-benzyl-8-(4-benzyloxybenzyl)-14-(1H-indol-3-ylmethyl)-4,7,10,13,16,19-hexaoxo-17-phenyloctadecahydro-3a,6,9,12,15,18-hexaazacyclopentacyclooctadecen-2-yl ester, di[(S)-2-aminosuccinic acid] salt, is a cyclohexapeptide with pharmacologic properties mimicking those of the natural hormone somatostatin.
  • The molecular formula of pasireotide diaspartate is CHNO u2022 2 CHNO and the molecular weight is 1313.41 g/mol. The structural formula is:
  • SIGNIFOR is supplied as a sterile solution in a single-dose, 1 mL colorless glass ampule containing pasireotide in 0.3u00a0mg/mL, 0.6 mg/mL, or 0.9 mg/mL strengths for subcutaneous injection.
  • Each glass ampule contains:
  • No data
  • Carcinogenesis
  • A life-time carcinogenicity study was conducted in rats and transgenic mice.u00a0Rats were given daily subcutaneous doses of pasireotide at 0.01, 0.05, 0.3 mg/kg/day for 104 weeks.u00a0There were no drug-related tumors in rats at exposures up to 7-fold higher than the maximum recommended clinical exposure at the 1.8 mg/day dose.u00a0Mice were given subcutaneous doses of pasireotide at 0.5, 1.0, 2.5 mg/kg/day for 26 weeks and did not identify any carcinogenic potential.
  • Mutagenesis
  • Pasireotide was not genotoxic in a battery of in vitro assays (Ames mutation test in and and mutation test in human peripheral lymphocytes). Pasireotide was not genotoxic in an in vivo rat bone marrow nucleus test.
  • Impairment of Fertility
  • Subcutaneous dosing at 0.1 mg/kg/day before mating and continuing into gestation in rats at exposures less than the human clinical exposure based on body surface area comparisons across species resulted in statistically significant increased implantation loss and decreased viable fetuses, corpora lutea, and implantation sites. Abnormal cycles or acyclicity were observed at 1 mg/kg/day (5-fold higher than the maximum therapeutic exposure based on surface area, comparisons across species).
  • A Phase III, multicenter, randomized study was conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of two dose levels of SIGNIFOR over a 6-month treatment period in Cushingu2019s disease patients with persistent or recurrent disease despite pituitary surgery or patients for whom surgery was not indicated or who had refused surgery.
  • Patients with a baseline 24-hour urine free cortisol (UFC) >1.5 x ULN were randomized to receive a SIGNIFOR dosage of either 0.6 mg subcutaneous twice a day or 0.9u00a0mg subcutaneousu00a0twice a day. After 3 months of treatment, patients with a mean 24-hour UFC u2264 2.0 x ULN and below or equal to their baseline values continued blinded treatment at the randomized dose until Month 6. Patients who did not meet these criteria were unblinded and the dose was increased by 0.3 mg twice a day. After the initial 6 months in the study, patients entered an additional 6-month open-label treatment period. The dosage could be reduced by 0.3u00a0mg twice a day at any time during the study for intolerability.
  • A total of 162 patients were enrolled in this study. The majority of patients were female (78%) and had persistent or recurrent Cushingu2019s disease despite pituitary surgery (83%) with a mean age of 40 years. A few patients (4%) in either treatment group received previous pituitary irradiation. The median value of the baseline 24-hour UFC for all patients was 565 nmol/24 hours (normal range 30 to 145 nmol/24 hours). About two-thirdsu00a0of all randomized patients completed 6 months of treatment.
  • The primary efficacy endpoint was the proportion of patients who achieved normalization of mean 24-hour UFC levels after 6 months of treatment and did not dose increase during this period.
  • 24-Hour Urinary Free Cortisol Results
  • At Month 6, the percentages of responders for the primary endpoint were 15% and 26% in the 0.6 mg twice a day and 0.9 mg twice a day groups, respectively (Table 3).u00a0The percentages of patients with mUFC u2264 ULN or u2265 50% reduction from baseline, a less stringent endpoint than the primary endpoint, were 34% in the 0.6 mg twice a day and 41% in the 0.9 mg twice a day groups.u00a0Dose increases appeared to have minimal effect on 24-hour UFC response. Mean and median percentage changes in UFC from baseline are presented in Table 3.
  • SIGNIFOR resulted in a decrease in the mean 24-hour UFC after 1 month of treatment (Figure 1).u00a0For patients (n = 78) who stayed in the trial, similar UFC lowering was observed at Month 12.
  • Note: Only patients who completed 6 months of treatment are included in this analysis (n = 110). The reference line is the ULN for UFC, which is 145 nmol/24hour; +/-Standard errors are displayed.
  • Other Endpoints
  • Decreases from baseline for blood pressure were observed at Month 6, including patients who did not receive any anti-hypertensive medication. However, due to the fact that the study allowed initiation of anti-hypertensive medication and dose increases in patients already receiving such medications, the individual contribution of SIGNIFOR or of anti-hypertensive medication adjustments cannot be clearly established.
  • The mean decreases from baseline at Month 6 for weight, body mass index, and waist circumference were 4.4 kg, 1.6 kg/m and 2.6 cm, respectively.u00a0Individual patients showed varying degrees of improvement in Cushing's disease manifestations, but because of the variability in response and the absence of a control group in this trial, it is uncertain whether these changes could be ascribed to the effects of SIGNIFOR.
