WHAT IS EXONDYS 51 (eteplirsen)?

EXONDYS 51 is used to treat patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) who have a confirmed mutation in the dystrophin gene that can be treated by skipping exon 51.

EXONDYS 51 was approved under accelerated approval. Accelerated approval allows for drugs to be approved based on a marker that is considered reasonably likely to predict a clinical benefit. EXONDYS 51 treatment increased the marker, dystrophin, in skeletal muscle in some patients. Verification of a clinical benefit may be needed for EXONDYS 51 to continue to be approved.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Hypersensitivity Reactions: Allergic reactions, including wheezing, chest pain, cough, rapid heart rate, and hives have occurred in patients who were treated with EXONDYS 51. Seek immediate medical care if signs and symptoms of allergic reactions occur.

Adverse Reactions: Side effects that have occurred at least 25% more often in patients treated with EXONDYS 51 than in patients treated with an inactive intravenous (IV) infusion were problems with balance (38%, 0%), vomiting (38%, 0%), and skin irritation (25%, 0%). The most common side effects were problems with balance and vomiting.

The most common side effects that occurred in greater than 10% of patients receiving EXONDYS 51 in other clinical trials were headache, cough, rash, and vomiting.

What do I do if I have side effects?
