Warnings

5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Increases in Blood Pressure: Can increase blood pressure in adult or pediatric patients. Periodically monitor blood pressure, especially in hypertensive patients. Mirabegron extended-release tablets are not recommended in patients with severe uncontrolled hypertension. ( 5.1 ) Urinary Retention in Patients with Bladder Outlet Obstruction and in Patients Taking Muscarinic Antagonist Drugs for Overactive Bladder: Administer with caution in these patients because of risk of urinary retention. ( 5.2 ) Angioedema: Angioedema of the face, lips, tongue and/or larynx has been reported with mirabegron. ( 5.3 , 6.2 ) 5.1 Increases in Blood Pressure Increases in Blood Pressure in Adults Mirabegron can increase blood pressure. Periodic blood pressure determinations are recommended, especially in hypertensive patients. Mirabegron is not recommended for use in patients with severe uncontrolled hypertension (defined as systolic blood pressure greater than or equal to 180 mm Hg and/or diastolic blood pressure greater than or equal to 110 mm Hg) [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.2 )] . In two, randomized, placebo-controlled, healthy adult volunteer studies, mirabegron was associated with dose-related increases in supine blood pressure. In these studies, at the maximum recommended dose of 50 mg, the mean maximum increase in systolic/diastolic blood pressure was approximately 3.5/1.5 mm Hg greater than placebo. In contrast, in adult OAB patients in clinical trials, mirabegron, taken as monotherapy, the mean increase in systolic and diastolic blood pressure at the maximum recommended mirabegron dose of 50 mg was approximately 0.5 to 1 mm Hg greater than placebo. Worsening of pre-existing hypertension was reported infrequently in patients taking mirabegron. Increases in Blood Pressure in Pediatric Patients 3 Years and Older Mirabegron can increase blood pressure in pediatric patients. Blood pressure increases may be larger in children (3 to less than 12 years of age) than in adolescents (12 to less than 18 years of age). Periodic blood pressure determinations are recommended. Mirabegron is not recommended for use in pediatric patients with severe uncontrolled hypertension, defined as a systolic and/or diastolic blood pressure above the 99 th percentile plus 5 mm Hg for age, sex, and stature using appropriate reference values [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ] . 5.2 Urinary Retention in Patients with Bladder Outlet Obstruction and in Patients Taking Muscarinic Antagonist Medications for OAB In patients taking mirabegron, urinary retention has been reported to occur in patients with bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) and in patients taking muscarinic antagonist medications for the treatment of OAB. A controlled clinical safety study in patients with BOO did not demonstrate increased urinary retention in patients treated with mirabegron; however, mirabegron should still be administered with caution to patients with clinically significant BOO. For example, monitor these patients for signs and symptoms of urinary retention. Mirabegron should also be administered with caution to patients taking muscarinic antagonist medications for the treatment of OAB [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.2 )] . 5.3 Angioedema Angioedema of the face, lips, tongue, and/or larynx has been reported with mirabegron. In some cases, angioedema occurred after the first dose, however, cases have been reported to occur hours after the first dose or after multiple doses. Angioedema, associated with upper airway swelling, may be life-threatening. If involvement of the tongue, hypopharynx, or larynx occurs, promptly discontinue mirabegron and provide appropriate therapy and/or measures necessary to ensure a patent airway [see Adverse Reactions ( 6.2 )]. 5.4 Patients Taking Drugs Metabolized by CYP2D6 Since mirabegron is a moderate CYP2D6 inhibitor, the systemic exposure to CYP2D6 substrates is increased when coadministered with mirabegron. Therefore, appropriate monit…

Contraindications

4 CONTRAINDICATIONS Mirabegron extended-release tablets are contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity reactions to mirabegron or any inactive ingredients of the tablet [see Adverse Reactions ( 6.1 , 6.2 )]. Hypersensitivity to mirabegron or any inactive ingredients. ( 4 )

Drug interactions

7 DRUG INTERACTIONS Drug interaction studies were conducted in adult patients to investigate the effect of coadministered drugs on the pharmacokinetics of mirabegron and the effect of mirabegron on the pharmacokinetics of coadministered drugs (e.g., ketoconazole, rifampin, solifenacin succinate, tamsulosin, and oral contraceptives) [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] . No dose adjustment is recommended when these drugs are coadministered with mirabegron. The following are drug interactions for which monitoring is recommended: Drugs Metabolized by CYP2D6: Mirabegron is a CYP2D6 inhibitor and, when used concomitantly with drugs metabolized by CYP2D6, especially narrow therapeutic index drugs, appropriate monitoring and possible dose adjustment of those drugs may be necessary. ( 5.4 , 7.1 , 12.3 ) Digoxin: When initiating a combination of mirabegron and digoxin, use the lowest dose of digoxin; monitor serum digoxin concentrations to titrate digoxin dose to desired clinical effect. ( 7.2 , 12.3 ) 7.1 Drugs Metabolized by CYP2D6 Since mirabegron is a moderate CYP2D6 inhibitor, the systemic exposure of drugs metabolized by CYP2D6 enzyme is increased when coadministered with mirabegron. Therefore, appropriate monitoring and dose adjustment may be necessary when mirabegron is coadministered with these drugs, especially with narrow therapeutic index CYP2D6 substrates [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.4 ) and Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] . 7.2 Digoxin When given in combination, 100 mg mirabegron increased mean digoxin C max from 1.01 ng/mL to 1.3 ng/mL (29%) and AUC from 16.7 ng.h/mL to 19.3 ng.h/mL (27%). For patients who are initiating a combination of mirabegron and digoxin, the lowest dose for digoxin should initially be considered. Serum digoxin concentrations should be monitored and used for titration of the digoxin dose to obtain the desired clinical effect [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] . 7.3 Warfarin The mean C max of S- and R- warfarin was increased by approximately 4% and AUC by approximately 9% when administered as a single dose of 25 mg after multiple doses of 100 mg mirabegron. Following a single dose administration of 25 mg warfarin, mirabegron had no effect on the warfarin pharmacodynamic endpoints such as International Normalized Ratio (INR) and prothrombin time. However, the effect of mirabegron on multiple doses of warfarin and on warfarin pharmacodynamic end points such as INR and prothrombin time has not been fully investigated [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] .

Pregnancy

8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary There are no studies with the use of mirabegron in pregnant women or adolescents to inform a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriages, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. Mirabegron administration to pregnant animals during organogenesis resulted in reversible skeletal variations (in rats) at 22-fold (via AUC) the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) of 50 mg/day and decreased fetal body weights (in rabbits) at 14-fold the MRHD. At maternally-toxic exposures in rats (96-fold), decreased fetal weight and increased fetal mortality were observed and, in rabbits (36-fold), cardiac findings (fetal cardiomegaly and fetal dilated aortae) were observed [see Data]. The estimated background risks of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated populations are unknown. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risks of major birth defects or miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies are 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively. Data Animal Data No embryo-fetal lethality or morphological fetal developmental abnormalities were produced in pregnant rats following daily oral administration of mirabegron during the period of organogenesis (Days 7 to 17 of gestation) at 0, 10, 30, 100, or 300 mg/kg, doses which were associated with systemic exposures (AUC) 0, 1, 6, 22, and 96-fold the MRHD. Skeletal variations (wavy ribs, delayed ossification) were observed in fetuses at doses 22-fold the systemic exposure at the MRHD and were reversible during development. Exposures 96-fold the MRHD were maternally-toxic (mortality, decreased body weight gain) and associated with fetal growth reduction. Pregnant rabbits were treated with daily oral doses of mirabegron at 0, 3, 10, or 30 mg/kg/day during the period of organogenesis (Days 6 to 20 of gestation), which resulted in plasma exposures that were 0, 1, 14, or 36-fold the MRHD based on AUC. At 10 mg/kg/day (14-fold the MRHD) and higher, fetal body weights were reduced. At 30 mg/kg/day, maternal toxicity (increased heart rate, mortality, reduced body weight gain, reduced food consumption) occurred, and fetal deaths, fetal cardiomegaly and fetal dilated aortae were observed at systemic exposure levels (AUC) 36-fold the MRHD. In a pre-and postnatal developmental study, rats were treated with daily oral doses of mirabegron at 0, 10, 30, or 100 mg/kg/day (0, 1, 6, or 22-fold the MRHD) from day 7 of gestation until day 20 after birth. Decreased maternal body weight was observed along with decreased pup survival in the first few days after birth (92.7% survival) compared to the control group (98.8% survival), at 100 mg/kg/day (22-fold the MRHD). Pup body weight gain was reduced until postnatal day 7 but not further affected throughout the remainder of the lactation period. In utero and lactational exposure did not affect developmental milestones, behavior or fertility of offspring. No effects were observed at 30 mg/kg/day.

Nursing mothers

8.2 Lactation Risk Summary There are no data on the presence of mirabegron in human milk, the effects on the breastfed child, or the effects on milk production. Mirabegron-related material was present in rat milk and in the stomach of nursing pups following administrations of a single 10 mg/kg oral dose of 14 C-labeled mirabegron to lactating rats. When a drug is present in animal milk, it is likely that the drug will be present in human milk. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother's clinical need for mirabegron and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed child from mirabegron or from the underlying maternal condition.

6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following adverse reactions are discussed in more detail in other sections of the labeling. Hypertension [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )] Urinary Retention [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 )] Angioedema [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.3 )] Most commonly reported adverse reactions with mirabegron monotherapy in adult patients with OAB (> 2% and > placebo) were hypertension, nasopharyngitis, urinary tract infection, and headache. ( 6.1 ) Most commonly reported adverse reactions with mirabegron in pediatric patients with NDO (≥ 3%) were UTI, nasopharyngitis, constipation, and headache.

Mirabegron Monotherapy for Adult OAB In three, 12-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled, safety and efficacy studies in patients with OAB (Studies 1, 2, and 3), mirabegron was evaluated for safety in 2,736 patients [see Clinical Studies ( 14.1 )]. Study 1 also included an active control. For the combined Studies 1, 2, and 3,432 patients received mirabegron 25 mg, 1,375 received mirabegron 50 mg, and 929 received mirabegron 100 mg once daily. In these studies, the majority of the patients were Caucasian (94%), and female (72%) with a mean age of 59 years (range 18 to 95 years). Mirabegron was also evaluated for safety in 1,632 patients who received mirabegron 50 mg once daily (n=812 patients) or mirabegron 100 mg (n=820 patients) in a 1-year, randomized, fixed- dose, double-blind, active-controlled, safety study in patients with OAB (Study 4). Of these patients, 731 received mirabegron in a previous 12-week study. In Study 4, 1385 patients received mirabegron continuously for at least 6 months, 1,311 patients received mirabegron for at least 9 months, and 564 patients received mirabegron for at least 1 year. The most frequent adverse events (0.2%) leading to discontinuation in Studies 1, 2 and 3 for the 25 mg or 50 mg dose were nausea, headache, hypertension, diarrhea, constipation, dizziness, and tachycardia. Atrial fibrillation (0.2%) and prostate cancer (0.1%) were reported as serious adverse events by more than 1 patient and at a rate greater than placebo. Table 3 the lists adverse reactions, derived from all adverse events that were reported in Studies 1, 2 and 3 at an incidence greater than placebo and in 1% or more of patients treated with mirabegron 25 mg or 50 mg once daily for up to 12 weeks. The most commonly reported adverse reactions (greater than 2% of mirabegron patients and greater than placebo) were hypertension, nasopharyngitis, urinary tract infection, and headache.
