SELECT IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Vaccinations

EBGLYSS may alter a patient's immunity and increase the risk of infection following administration of live vaccines. Prior to therapy with EBGLYSS, complete all age-appropriate vaccinations according to current immunization guidelines. Avoid use of live vaccines immediately prior to or during treatment with EBGLYSS. No data are available on the response to live vaccines.

MAINTAIN MONTHLY
Recommended Q4W maintenance dosing can deliver long-lasting efficacy1*

*After a 16-week Q2W induction period or later when adequate clinical response is achieved.1

Administering EBGLYSS

Device designed with patient insight2

In a study of adult patients with AD, 96% agreed that the EBGLYSS Pen was easy to use and were confident in their ability to use it.3,4*

The purpose of this study was to assess the ease of use of the lebrikizumab-lbkz Pen. Participants were provided device training and used a practice pad to simulate administration of a dose. Participants completed the modified Subcutaneous Administration Assessment Questionnaire (mSQAAQ) following the simulated injection.4

Study was open label, single site, single visit, and included 55 adult patients diagnosed with AD who had not used an autoinjector or pen previously.4

*The mSQAAQ is a modified questionnaire comprised of 10 questions including the overall ease of use and confidence in the ability to use an autoinjector. Responses are scored on a 7-point Likert scale ranging from ‘strongly disagree' to ‘strongly agree:' (1) Strongly disagree; (2) Disagree; (3) Slightly disagree; (4) Neither agree nor disagree; (5) Slightly agree; (6) Agree; (7) Strongly agree.4

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Contraindication: EBGLYSS is contraindicated in patients with prior serious hypersensitivity to lebrikizumab-lbkz or any excipients of EBGLYSS.

Warnings and Precautions

Hypersensitivity
Hypersensitivity reactions, including angioedema and urticaria, have been reported with use of EBGLYSS. If a serious hypersensitivity reaction occurs, discontinue EBGLYSS and institute appropriate therapy.

Conjunctivitis and Keratitis
Conjunctivitis and keratitis adverse reactions have been reported in clinical trials. Conjunctivitis and keratitis occurred more frequently in atopic dermatitis subjects who received EBGLYSS compared to those who received placebo. Conjunctivitis was the most frequently reported eye disorder. Most subjects with conjunctivitis or keratitis recovered during the treatment period. Advise patients to report new onset or worsening eye symptoms to their healthcare provider.

Parasitic (Helminth) Infections
Patients with known helminth infections were excluded from participation in clinical studies. It is unknown if EBGLYSS will influence the immune response against helminth infections by inhibiting IL-13 signaling. Treat patients with pre-existing helminth infections before initiating treatment with EBGLYSS. If patients become infected while receiving EBGLYSS and do not respond to antihelminth treatment, discontinue treatment with EBGLYSS until the infection resolves.

Vaccinations
EBGLYSS may alter a patient’s immunity and increase the risk of infection following administration of live vaccines. Prior to therapy with EBGLYSS, complete all age-appropriate vaccinations according to current immunization guidelines. Avoid use of live vaccines immediately prior to or during treatment with EBGLYSS. No data are available on the response to live vaccines.

Adverse Reactions

The most common (≥1%) adverse reactions are conjunctivitis, injection site reactions, and herpes zoster.

EBGLYSS is available as a 250mg/2mL subcutaneous injection prefilled pen or prefilled syringe.
