Pregnancy and lactation
Pregnancy
8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary There are no available data on BRINSUPRI use in pregnant women to evaluate for a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or other adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. In animal embryo fetal development (EFD) studies, oral administration of brensocatib to pregnant rats during organogenesis at maternal exposures 128 times the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) on an AUC basis was associated with malformations. Oral administration of brensocatib to pregnant rabbits during organogenesis demonstrated no adverse developmental effects at doses that produced maternal exposures up to 20 times the MRHD.
No adverse development effects were observed after oral administration of brensocatib to pregnant rats from the period of organogenesis through lactation at doses that produced maternal exposures 17 times the MRHD on an AUC basis (see Data ) . The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defect, loss, or other adverse outcomes. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively.
Data Animal Data In a rat fertility and EFD study, brensocatib was administered at oral doses of 3, 20, and 100 mg/kg/day to female rats 2 weeks prior to mating, during mating, and through organogenesis until gestation Day 16. The malformation of bent scapula was observed at a maternal dose of 100 mg/kg/day (128 times the MRHD on an AUC basis). There were no adverse findings at maternal oral doses of 20 mg/kg/day (42 times the MRHD on an AUC basis). In a rabbit EFD study, brensocatib was administered at oral doses of 5, 15, or 50 mg/kg/day from gestation Days 7 to 19, a period that covers implantation and major organogenesis.
Brensocatib was not associated with adverse effects on the fetus at maternal exposures up to 20 times the MRHD on an AUC basis. Maternal toxicity as indicated by reductions in body weight gain and food consumption was noted at maternal doses of 15 mg/kg/day and greater (greater than 5 times the MRHD on an AUC basis). In a pre- and postnatal development study, oral administration of brensocatib to pregnant rats at doses of 3, 9, or 20 mg/kg/day from gestation Day 6 through lactation Day 20 resulted in no adverse developmental effects in pups at maternal doses up to 20 mg/kg/day (17 times the MRHD on an AUC basis).
Breastfeeding (LactMed)
No information is available on the clinical use of brensocatib during breastfeeding. Because brensocatib is about 87% bound to plasma proteins, the amount in milk is likely to be low. If a mother requires brensocatib, it is not a reason to discontinue breastfeeding. Until more data become available, brensocatib should be used with caution during breastfeeding, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant.
