2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION • For oral inhalation only. ( 2.3 ) • Maintenance treatment of COPD: 1 actuation of Fluticasone Furoate/Vilanterol ELLIPTA 100/25 mcg once daily administered by oral inhalation. ( 2.1 ) • Maintenance treatment of asthma in adult patients aged 18 years and older: 1 actuation of Fluticasone Furoate/Vilanterol ELLIPTA 100/25 mcg or Fluticasone Furoate/Vilanterol ELLIPTA 200/25 mcg once daily administered by oral inhalation. ( 2.2 ) • Maintenance treatment of asthma in pediatric patients aged 12 to 17 years: 1 actuation of Fluticasone Furoate/Vilanterol ELLIPTA 100/25 mcg once daily administered by oral inhalation. ( 2.2 ) • Maintenance treatment of asthma in pediatric patients aged 5 to 11 years: 1 actuation of fluticasone furoate/vilanterol ELLIPTA 50/25 mcg once daily administered by oral inhalation. ( 2.2 ) 2.1 Recommended Dosage for Maintenance Treatment of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease The recommended dosage of Fluticasone Furoate/Vilanterol ELLIPTA 100/25 mcg (containing fluticasone furoate 100 mcg and vilanterol 25 mcg) is 1 actuation once daily by oral inhalation. If shortness of breath occurs in the period between doses, an inhaled, short-acting beta 2 -agonist (rescue medicine, e.g., albuterol) should be used for immediate relief. 2.2 Recommended Dosage for Maintenance Treatment of Asthma Adult Patients Aged 18 Years and Older The recommended dosage of Fluticasone Furoate/Vilanterol ELLIPTA 100/25 mcg (containing fluticasone furoate 100 mcg and vilanterol 25 mcg) is 1 actuation once daily by oral inhalation or Fluticasone Furoate/Vilanterol ELLIPTA 200/25 mcg (containing fluticasone furoate 200 mcg and vilanterol 25 mcg) is 1 actuation once daily by oral inhalation. • When choosing the starting dosage strength of Fluticasone Furoate/Vilanterol ELLIPTA, consider the patients’ disease severity, their previous asthma therapy, including the inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) dosage, as well as the patients’ current control of asthma symptoms and risk of future exacerbation. • The median time to onset, defined as a 100-mL increase from baseline in mean forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV 1 ), was approximately 15 minutes after beginning treatment. Individual patients will experience a variable time to onset and degree of symptom relief. • For patients who do not respond adequately to Fluticasone Furoate/Vilanterol ELLIPTA 100/25 mcg once daily, increasing the dose to Fluticasone Furoate/Vilanterol ELLIPTA 200/25 mcg once daily may provide additional improvement in asthma control. For patients who do not respond adequately to Fluticasone Furoate/Vilanterol ELLIPTA 200/25 mcg once daily, re-evaluate and consider other therapeutic regimens and additional therapeutic options. • The maximum recommended dosage is 1 inhalation of Fluticasone Furoate/Vilanterol ELLIPTA 200/25 mcg once daily. • If asthma symptoms arise in the period between doses, an inhaled, short-acting beta 2 -agonist (rescue medicine, e.g., albuterol) should be used for immediate relief. Pediatric Patients Aged 12 to 17 Years The recommended dosage of Fluticasone Furoate/Vilanterol ELLIPTA 100/25 mcg (containing fluticasone furoate 100 mcg and vilanterol 25 mcg) is 1 actuation once daily by oral inhalation [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.14 )] . Pediatric Patients Aged 5 to 11 Years The recommended dosage of Fluticasone Furoate/Vilanterol ELLIPTA 50/25 mcg (containing fluticasone furoate 50 mcg and vilanterol 25 mcg) is 1 actuation once daily by oral inhalation [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.14 )] . 2.3 Administration Information • After inhalation, the patient should rinse his/her mouth with water without swallowing to help reduce the risk of oropharyngeal candidiasis [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.4 )] . • Fluticasone Furoate/Vilanterol ELLIPTA should be used at the same time every day. Do not use Fluticasone Furoate/Vilanterol ELLIPTA more than 1 time every 24 hours. • More frequent administration or a greater number…

5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS • LABA monotherapy increases the risk of serious asthma-related events. ( 5.1 ) • Do not initiate in acutely deteriorating COPD or asthma. Do not use to treat acute symptoms. ( 5.2 ) • Do not use in combination with additional therapy containing a LABA because of risk of overdose. ( 5.3 ) • Candida albicans infection of the mouth and pharynx may occur. Monitor patients periodically. Advise the patient to rinse his/her mouth with water without swallowing after inhalation to help reduce the risk. ( 5.4 ) • Increased risk of pneumonia in patients with COPD. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of pneumonia. ( 5.5 ) • Potential worsening of infections (e.g., existing tuberculosis; fungal, bacterial, viral, or parasitic infections; ocular herpes simplex). Use with caution in patients with these infections. More serious or even fatal course of chickenpox or measles can occur in susceptible patients. ( 5.6 ) • Risk of impaired adrenal function when transferring from systemic corticosteroids. Wean patients slowly from systemic corticosteroids if transferring to Fluticasone Furoate/Vilanterol ELLIPTA. ( 5.7 ) • Hypercorticism and adrenal suppression may occur with very high dosages or at the regular dosage in susceptible individuals. If such changes occur, discontinue Fluticasone Furoate/Vilanterol ELLIPTA slowly. ( 5.8 ) • If paradoxical bronchospasm occurs, discontinue Fluticasone Furoate/Vilanterol ELLIPTA and institute alternative therapy. ( 5.10 ) • Use with caution in patients with cardiovascular disorders because of beta-adrenergic stimulation. ( 5.12 ) • Assess for decrease in bone mineral density (BMD) initially and periodically thereafter. ( 5.13 ) • Monitor growth of pediatric patients ( 5.14 ) • Glaucoma and cataracts may occur with long-term use of Inhaled Corticosteroid (ICS). Consider referral to an ophthalmologist in patients who develop ocular symptoms or use Fluticasone Furoate/Vilanterol ELLIPTA long term. ( 5.15 ) • Use with caution in patients with convulsive disorders, thyrotoxicosis, diabetes mellitus, and ketoacidosis. ( 5.16 ) • Increased blood glucose levels have been reported. Also, be alert to hypokalemia. ( 5.17 ) 5.1 Serious Asthma-Related Events – Hospitalizations, Intubations, Death Use of Long-acting Beta 2 -adrenergic Agonist (LABA) as monotherapy (without ICS) for asthma is associated with an increased risk of asthma-related death [see Salmeterol Multicenter Asthma Research Trial (SMART)] . Available data from controlled clinical trials also suggest that use of LABA as monotherapy increases the risk of asthma-related hospitalization in pediatric patients. These findings are considered a class effect of LABA monotherapy. When LABA are used in fixed-dose combination with ICS, data from large clinical trials do not show a significant increase in the risk of serious asthma‑related events (hospitalizations, intubations, death) compared with ICS alone (see Serious Asthma-Related Events with Inhaled Corticosteroid/Long-Acting Beta 2 -Adrenergic Agonists) . Serious Asthma-Related Events with Inhaled Corticosteroid/Long-Acting Beta 2 -Adrenergic Agonists Four (4) large, 26-week, randomized, double-blind, active-controlled clinical safety trials were conducted to evaluate the risk of serious asthma-related events when LABA were used in fixed‑dose combination with ICS compared with ICS alone in patients with asthma. Three (3) trials included adult and pediatric patients aged 12 years and older: 1 trial compared budesonide/formoterol with budesonide, 1 trial compared fluticasone propionate/salmeterol inhalation powder with fluticasone propionate inhalation powder, and 1 trial compared mometasone furoate/formoterol with mometasone furoate. The fourth trial included pediatric patients aged 4 to 11 years and compared fluticasone propionate/salmeterol inhalation powder with fluticasone propionate inhalation powder. The primary safety endpoint for all 4 trials was serious asthma-related e…

4 CONTRAINDICATIONS Fluticasone Furoate/Vilanterol ELLIPTA is contraindicated in the following conditions: • Primary treatment of status asthmaticus or other acute episodes of COPD or asthma where intensive measures are required [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 )] . • Severe hypersensitivity to milk proteins or demonstrated hypersensitivity to fluticasone furoate, vilanterol, or any of the excipients [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.11 ), Description ( 11 )] . • Primary treatment of status asthmaticus or acute episodes of COPD or asthma requiring intensive measures. ( 4 ) • Severe hypersensitivity to milk proteins or any ingredients. ( 4 )

7 DRUG INTERACTIONS • Strong cytochrome P450 3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole): Use with caution. May cause systemic corticosteroid and cardiovascular effects. ( 7.1 ) • Monoamine oxidase inhibitors and tricyclic antidepressants: Use with extreme caution. May potentiate effect of vilanterol on cardiovascular system. ( 7.2 ) • Beta-blockers: Use with caution. May block bronchodilatory effects of beta-agonists and produce severe bronchospasm. ( 7.3 ) • Diuretics: Use with caution. Electrocardiographic changes and/or hypokalemia associated with non–potassium-sparing diuretics may worsen with concomitant beta-agonists. ( 7.4 ) 7.1 Inhibitors of Cytochrome P450 3A4 Fluticasone furoate and vilanterol are both substrates of CYP3A4. Concomitant administration of the strong CYP3A4 inhibitor ketoconazole increases the systemic exposure to fluticasone furoate and vilanterol. Caution should be exercised when considering the coadministration of Fluticasone Furoate/Vilanterol ELLIPTA with ketoconazole and other known strong CYP3A4 inhibitors [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.9 ), Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] . 7.2 Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors, Tricyclic Antidepressants, and QTc Prolonging Drugs Vilanterol, like other beta 2 -agonists, should be administered with extreme caution to patients being treated with monoamine oxidase inhibitors, tricyclic antidepressants, or drugs known to prolong the QTc interval or within 2 weeks of discontinuation of such agents, because the effect of adrenergic agonists on the cardiovascular system may be potentiated by these agents. Drugs that are known to prolong the QTc interval have an increased risk of ventricular arrhythmias. 7.3 Beta-Adrenergic Receptor Blocking Agents Beta-blockers not only block the pulmonary effect of beta-agonists, such as vilanterol, but may also produce severe bronchospasm in patients with COPD or asthma. Therefore, patients with COPD or asthma should not normally be treated with beta-blockers. However, under certain circumstances, there may be no acceptable alternatives to the use of beta-adrenergic blocking agents for these patients; cardioselective beta-blockers could be considered, although they should be administered with caution. 7.4 Non–Potassium-Sparing Diuretics The electrocardiographic changes and/or hypokalemia that may result from the administration of non–potassium-sparing diuretics (such as loop or thiazide diuretics) can be acutely worsened by beta-agonists, especially when the recommended dose of the beta-agonist is exceeded. Although the clinical significance of these effects is not known, caution is advised in the coadministration of beta-agonists with non–potassium-sparing diuretics.

8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary There are insufficient data on the use of fluticasone furoate/vilanterol ELLIPTA or its individual components, fluticasone furoate and vilanterol, in pregnant women to inform a drug-associated risk. (See Clinical Considerations .) In an animal reproduction study, fluticasone furoate and vilanterol administered by inhalation alone or in combination to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis produced no fetal structural abnormalities. The highest fluticasone furoate and vilanterol doses in this study were approximately 5 and 40 times the maximum recommended human daily inhalation doses (MRHDID) of 200 and 25 mcg, respectively. (See Data .) The estimated risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated populations is unknown. In the U.S. general population, the estimated risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively. Clinical Considerations Disease-Associated Maternal and/or Embryofetal Risk: In women with poorly or moderately controlled asthma, there is an increased risk of several perinatal outcomes such as pre-eclampsia in the mother and prematurity, low birth weight, and small for gestational age in the neonate. Pregnant women should be closely monitored, and medication adjusted as necessary to maintain optimal control of asthma. Labor or Delivery: Fluticasone Furoate/Vilanterol ELLIPTA should be used during late gestation and labor only if the potential benefit justifies the potential for risks related to beta-agonists interfering with uterine contractility. Data Animal Data: Fluticasone Furoate and Vilanterol: In an embryofetal developmental study, pregnant rats received fluticasone furoate and vilanterol during the period of organogenesis at doses up to approximately 5 and 40 times the MRHDID of 200 and 25 mcg, respectively, alone or in combination (on a mcg/m 2 basis at inhalation doses up to approximately 95 mcg/kg/day). No evidence of structural abnormalities was observed. Fluticasone Furoate: In 2 separate embryofetal developmental studies, pregnant rats and rabbits received fluticasone furoate during the period of organogenesis at doses up to approximately 4 and 1 times, respectively, the MRHDID of 200 mcg (on a mcg/m 2 basis at maternal inhalation doses up to 91 and 8 mcg/kg/day, respectively). No evidence of structural abnormalities in fetuses was observed in either species. In a perinatal and postnatal developmental study in rats, dams received fluticasone furoate during late gestation and lactation periods at doses up to approximately 1 time the MRHDID of 200 mcg (on a mcg/m 2 basis at maternal inhalation doses up to 27 mcg/kg/day). No evidence of effects on offspring development was observed. Vilanterol: In 2 separate embryofetal developmental studies, pregnant rats and rabbits received vilanterol during the period of organogenesis at doses up to approximately 13,000 and 1,000 times, respectively, the MRHDID (on a mcg/m 2 basis at maternal inhalation doses up to 33,700 mcg/kg/day in rats and on an AUC basis at maternal inhaled doses up to 5,740 mcg/kg/day in rabbits). No evidence of structural abnormalities was observed at any dose in rats or in rabbits up to approximately 160 times the MRHDID (on an AUC basis at maternal doses up to 591 mcg/kg/day). However, fetal skeletal variations were observed in rabbits at approximately 1,000 times the MRHDID (on an AUC basis at maternal inhaled or subcutaneous doses of 5,740 or 300 mcg/kg/day, respectively). The skeletal variations included decreased or absent ossification in cervical vertebral centrum and metacarpals. In a perinatal and postnatal developmental study in rats, dams received vilanterol during late gestation and the lactation periods at doses up to approximately 3,900 times the MRHDID (on a mcg/m 2 basis at maternal oral doses up to 10,000 mcg/kg/day). No evidence of effects in offspring development was observed.

In these studies, 5,356 patients with COPD received at least 1 dose of fluticasone furoate/vilanterol ELLIPTA 100/25 mcg. Adverse reactions observed in other studies of fluticasone furoate/vilanterol ELLIPTA in COPD patients were similar to those observed in these 5 trials. 6-Month Trials The incidence of adverse reactions associated with fluticasone furoate/vilanterol ELLIPTA 100/25 mcg in Table 2 is based on 2 placebo-controlled, 6-month clinical trials (Trials 1 and 2; n = 1,224 and n = 1,030, respectively). Of the 2,254 patients, 70% were male and 84% were White. They had a mean age of 62 years and an average smoking history of 44 pack years, with 54% identified as current smokers. At screening, the mean postbronchodilator percent predicted FEV 1 was 48% (range: 14% to 87%), the mean postbronchodilator FEV 1 /forced vital capacity (FVC) ratio was 47% (range: 17% to 88%), and the mean percent reversibility was 14% (range: -41% to 152%). Patients received 1 inhalation once daily of the following: fluticasone furoate/vilanterol ELLIPTA 100/25 mcg, fluticasone furoate/vilanterol ELLIPTA 200/25 mcg, fluticasone furoate/vilanterol 50/25 mcg, fluticasone furoate 100 mcg, fluticasone furoate 200 mcg, vilanterol 25 mcg, or placebo.
