Warnings
General
Exercise caution when handling Profilnine due to the limited risk of exposure to viral infection. Discard any unused Profilnine vial contents. Discard administration equipment after single use. Do not resterilize components. Do not reuse components.
Information for Patients
After repeated treatment with Profilnine, patients should be monitored for the development of neutralizing antibodies (inhibitors) that should be quantified in Bethesda Units (BU) using appropriate biological testing. Hypersensitivity and allergic type hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, have been reported for all factor IX complex concentrate products. Patients must be informed of the early symptoms and signs of hypersensitivity reaction, including hives, generalized urticaria, angioedema, chest tightness, dyspnea, wheezing, faintness, hypotension, tachycardia and anaphylaxis. Patients must be advised to discontinue use of the product and contact their physician and/or seek immediate emergency care if these symptoms occur.
Pregnancy Category C
Animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with Profilnine. It is also not known whether Profilnine can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman or can affect reproduction capacity. Profilnine should be given to a pregnant woman only if clearly indicated.
Pediatric Use
Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients below the age of 16 have not been established. However, across a well controlled half-life and recovery clinical trial in patients previously treated with factor IX concentrates for Hemophilia B, the two pediatric patients receiving Profilnine responded similarly when compared with the adult patients.
Adverse Reactions
Clinical Trials Experience
There is limited information regarding Factor ix complex Clinical Trials Experience in the drug label.
Postmarketing Experience
In addition, during post-approval use of Profilnine, cases of allergic/hypersensitivity reactions (including urticaria, shortness of breath, hypotension, and pruritus) and adverse reactions characterized by either thrombosis or disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) have been reported. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.
Drug Interactions
