Important Safety Information
IDELVION is indicated in children and adults with hemophilia B ( congenital Factor IX deficiency ) for :
• On-demand control and prevention of bleeding episodes
• Perioperative management of bleeding
• Routine prophylaxis to prevent or reduce the frequency of bleeding episodes
IDELVION is not indicated for induction of immune tolerance in patients with hemophilia B .
IDELVION is contraindicated in patients who have had life-threatening hypersensitivity to the product or its components , including hamster proteins .
IDELVION is for intravenous use only . IDELVION can be selfadministered or administered by a caregiver with training and approval from a healthcare provider or hemophilia treatment center . Higher dose per kilogram body weight or more frequent dosing may be needed for pediatric patients .
Hypersensitivity reactions , including anaphylaxis , are possible . Advise patients who self-administer to immediately
report symptoms of hypersensitivity , including angioedema , chest tightness , hypotension , generalized urticaria , wheezing , and dyspnea . If symptoms occur , discontinue IDELVION and administer appropriate treatment .
Development of neutralizing antibodies ( inhibitors ) to IDELVION may occur . If expected Factor IX activity plasma levels are not attained or bleeding is not controlled with appropriate dose , perform an assay to measure Factor IX inhibitor concentration . Factor IX activity assay results may vary with the type of activated partial thromboplastin time reagent used .
Thromboembolism ( eg , pulmonary embolism , venous thrombosis , and arterial thrombosis ) can occur when using Factor IX-containing products . In addition , nephrotic syndrome has been reported following immune tolerance induction in hemophilia B patients with Factor IX inhibitors and allergic reactions to Factor IX .
The most common adverse reaction ( incidence ≥1 %) reported in clinical trials was headache .
