    Tyvaso® (treprostinil) inhalation solution

    For Oral Inhalation Only

  • 1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE

    Tyvaso is indicated for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) (WHO Group 1) to improve exercise ability. Studies establishing effectiveness included predominately patients with NYHA Functional Class III symptoms and etiologies of idiopathic or heritable PAH (56%) or PAH associated with connective tissue diseases (33%).

    The effects diminish over the minimum recommended dosing interval of 4 hours; treatment timing can be adjusted for planned activities.

    While there are long-term data on use of treprostinil by other routes of administration, nearly all controlled clinical experience with inhaled treprostinil has been on a background of bosentan (an endothelin receptor antagonist) or sildenafil (a phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitor). The controlled clinical experience was limited to 12 weeks in duration [see Clinical Studies (14)].

  • 2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION

    2.1 Usual Dosage in Adults

    Tyvaso is intended for oral inhalation using the Tyvaso Inhalation System, which consists of an ultrasonic, pulsed delivery device and its accessories.

    Tyvaso is dosed in 4 separate, equally spaced treatment sessions per day, during waking hours. Each treatment session will take 2 to 3 minutes. The treatment sessions should be approximately 4 hours apart.

    Initial Dosage:

    Therapy should begin with 3 breaths of Tyvaso (18 mcg of treprostinil), per treatment session, 4 times daily. If 3 breaths are not tolerated, reduce to 1 or 2 breaths and subsequently increase to 3 breaths, as tolerated.

    Maintenance Dosage:

    Dosage should be increased by an additional 3 breaths per treatment session at approximately 1- to 2- week intervals, if tolerated, until the target dose of 9 breaths (54 mcg of treprostinil) is reached, 4 times daily. If adverse effects preclude titration to target dose, Tyvaso should be continued at the highest tolerated dose.

    If a scheduled treatment session is missed or interrupted, therapy should be resumed as soon as possible at the usual dose.

    The maximum recommended dosage is 9 breaths per treatment session, 4 times daily.

    2.2 Patients with Hepatic Insufficiency

    Plasma clearance of treprostinil is reduced in patients with hepatic insufficiency. Patients with hepatic insufficiency may therefore be at increased risk of dose-dependent adverse reactions because of an increase in systemic exposure [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3), Use in Specific Populations (8.6) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].

    2.3 Patients with Renal Insufficiency

    Plasma clearance of treprostinil may be reduced in patients with renal insufficiency, since treprostinil and its metabolites are excreted mainly through the urinary route. Patients with renal insufficiency may therefore be at increased risk of dose-dependent adverse reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3), Use in Specific Populations (8.7) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].

    2.4 Administration

    Tyvaso must be used only with the Tyvaso Inhalation System. Patients should follow the instructions for use for operation of the Tyvaso Inhalation System and for daily cleaning of the device components after the last treatment session of the day. To avoid potential interruptions in drug delivery because of equipment malfunction, patients should have access to a back-up Tyvaso Inhalation System device.

    Do not mix Tyvaso with other medications in the Tyvaso Inhalation System. Compatibility of Tyvaso with other medications has not been studied.

    The Tyvaso Inhalation System should be prepared for use each day according to the instructions for use. One ampule of Tyvaso contains a sufficient volume of medication for all 4 treatment sessions in a single day. Prior to the first treatment session, the patient should twist the top off a single Tyvaso ampule and squeeze the entire contents into the medicine cup. Between each of the 4 daily treatment sessions, the device should be capped and stored upright with the remaining medication inside.

    At the end of each day, the medicine cup and any remaining medication must be discarded. The device must be cleaned each day according to the instructions for use.

    Avoid skin or eye contact with Tyvaso solution. Do not orally ingest the Tyvaso solution.

  • 3 DOSAGE FORMS AND STRENGTHS

    Sterile solution for oral inhalation: 2.9 mL ampule containing 1.74 mg of treprostinil (0.6 mg per mL).

  • 4 CONTRAINDICATIONS

    None.

  • 5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

    5.1 Patients with Pulmonary Disease or Pulmonary Infections

    The efficacy of Tyvaso has not been established in patients with significant underlying lung disease (e.g., asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease). Patients with acute pulmonary infections should be carefully monitored to detect any worsening of lung disease and loss of drug effect.

    5.2 Risk of Symptomatic Hypotension

    Treprostinil is a pulmonary and systemic vasodilator. In patients with low systemic arterial pressure, treatment with Tyvaso may produce symptomatic hypotension.

    5.3 Patients with Hepatic or Renal Insufficiency

    Titrate slowly in patients with hepatic or renal insufficiency, because such patients will likely be exposed to greater systemic concentrations relative to patients with normal hepatic or renal function [see Dosage and Administration (2.2, 2.3), Use in Specific Populations (8.6, 8.7) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].

    5.4 Risk of Bleeding

    Tyvaso inhibits platelet aggregation and increases the risk of bleeding.

    5.5 Effect of Other Drugs on Treprostinil

    Co-administration of a cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C8 enzyme inhibitor (e.g., gemfibrozil) may increase exposure (both Cmax and AUC) to treprostinil. Co-administration of a CYP2C8 enzyme inducer (e.g., rifampin) may decrease exposure to treprostinil. Increased exposure is likely to increase adverse events associated with treprostinil administration, whereas decreased exposure is likely to reduce clinical effectiveness [see Drug Interactions (7.3) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].

  • 6 ADVERSE REACTIONS

    The following potential adverse reactions are described in Warnings and Precautions (5):

    -
    Decrease in systemic blood pressure [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)].
    -
    Bleeding [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4)].

    6.1 Adverse Reactions Identified in Clinical Trials

    Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.

    In a 12-week placebo-controlled study (TRIUMPH I) of 235 patients with PAH (WHO Group 1 and nearly all NYHA Functional Class III), the most commonly reported adverse reactions on Tyvaso included: cough and throat irritation, headache, gastrointestinal effects, muscle, jaw or bone pain, dizziness, flushing and syncope. Table 1 lists the adverse reactions that occurred at a rate of at least 4% and were more frequent in patients treated with Tyvaso than with placebo.

    The safety of Tyvaso was also studied in a long-term, open-label extension study in which 206 patients were dosed for a mean duration of 2.3 years, with a maximum exposure of 5.4 years. Eighty-nine percent (89%) of patients achieved the target dose of nine breaths, four times daily. Forty-two percent (42%) achieved a dose of 12 breaths four times daily. The adverse events during this chronic dosing study were qualitatively similar to those observed in the 12-week placebo controlled trial.

    In a prospective, observational study comparing patients taking Tyvaso (958 patient-years of exposure) and a control group (treatment with other approved therapies for PAH; 1094 patient-years), Tyvaso was associated with a higher rate of cough (16.2 vs. 10.9 per 100 patient-years), throat irritation (4.5 vs. 1.2 per 100 pt-years), nasal discomfort (2.6 vs. 1.3 per 100 pt-years), and hemoptysis (2.5 vs. 1.3 per 100 pt-years) compared to the control group.

    Adverse Events Associated with Route of Administration

    Adverse events in the treated group during the double-blind and open-label phase reflecting irritation to the respiratory tract included: cough, throat irritation, pharyngeal pain, epistaxis, hemoptysis and wheezing. Serious adverse events during the open-label portion of the study included pneumonia in fifteen subjects. There were three serious episodes of hemoptysis (one fatal) noted during the open-label experience.

    6.2 Adverse Reactions Identified in Post-Marketing Experience

    The following adverse reaction has been identified during the post-approval use of Tyvaso. Because this reaction is reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate the frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure:

    Angioedema.

  • 7 DRUG INTERACTIONS

    7.1 Bosentan

    In a human pharmacokinetic study conducted with bosentan (250 mg/day) and an oral formulation of treprostinil (treprostinil diolamine), no pharmacokinetic interactions between treprostinil and bosentan were observed.

    7.2 Sildenafil

    In a human pharmacokinetic study conducted with sildenafil (60 mg/day) and an oral formulation of treprostinil (treprostinil diolamine), no pharmacokinetic interactions between treprostinil and sildenafil were observed.

    7.3 Effect of Cytochrome P450 Inhibitors and Inducers

    In vitro studies of human hepatic microsomes showed that treprostinil does not inhibit cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoenzymes CYP1A2, CYP2A6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP2E1 and CYP3A. Additionally, treprostinil does not induce cytochrome P450 isoenzymes CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, and CYP3A.

    Human pharmacokinetic studies with an oral formulation of treprostinil (treprostinil diolamine) indicated that co-administration of the cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C8 enzyme inhibitor gemfibrozil increases exposure (both Cmax and AUC) to treprostinil. Co-administration of the CYP2C8 enzyme inducer rifampin decreases exposure to treprostinil. It is unclear if the safety and efficacy of treprostinil by the inhalation route are altered by inhibitors or inducers of CYP2C8 [see Warnings and Precautions (5.5)].

    7.4 Effect of Other Drugs on Treprostinil

    Drug interaction studies have been carried out with treprostinil (oral or subcutaneous) co-administered with acetaminophen (4 g/day), warfarin (25 mg/day), and fluconazole (200 mg/day), respectively in healthy volunteers. These studies did not show a clinically significant effect on the pharmacokinetics of treprostinil. Treprostinil does not affect the pharmacokinetics or pharmacodynamics of warfarin. The pharmacokinetics of R- and S- warfarin and the INR in healthy subjects given a single 25 mg dose of warfarin were unaffected by continuous subcutaneous infusion of treprostinil at an infusion rate of 10 ng/kg/min.

  • 8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS

    8.1 Pregnancy

    Risk Summary

    Limited case reports of treprostinil use in pregnant women are insufficient to inform a drug-associated risk of adverse developmental outcomes. However, there are risks to the mother and the fetus associated with pulmonary arterial hypertension (see Clinical Considerations). In animal studies, no adverse reproductive and developmental effects were seen for treprostinil at ≥9 and ≥145 times the human exposure when based on Cmax and AUC following a single treprostinil dose of 54 mcg, respectively.

    The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated populations 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.

    Clinical Considerations

    Disease-associated maternal and embryo-fetal risk

    Pulmonary arterial hypertension is associated with an increased risk of maternal and fetal mortality.

    Data

    Animal reproduction studies have been conducted with treprostinil via continuous subcutaneous administration and with treprostinil diolamine administered orally. In pregnant rats, continuous subcutaneous infusions of treprostinil during organogenesis and late gestational development, at doses as high as 900 ng treprostinil/kg/min (about 117 times the starting human subcutaneous infusion rate, on a ng/m2 basis and about 16 times the average rate achieved in clinical trials), resulted in no evidence of harm to the fetus. In pregnant rabbits, effects of continuous subcutaneous infusions of treprostinil during organogenesis were limited to an increased incidence of fetal skeletal variations (bilateral full rib or right rudimentary rib on lumbar 1) associated with maternal toxicity (reduction in body weight and food consumption) at a dose of 150 ng treprostinil/kg/min (about 41 times the starting human subcutaneous infusion rate, on a ng/m2 basis, and 5 times the average rate used in clinical trials). In rats, continuous subcutaneous infusion of treprostinil from implantation to the end of lactation, at doses of up to 450 ng treprostinil/kg/min, did not affect the growth and development of offspring. In studies with orally administered treprostinil diolamine, no adverse effect doses for fetal viability / growth, fetal development (teratogenicity), and postnatal development were determined in rats. In pregnant rats, no evidence of harm to the fetus was observed following oral administration of treprostinil diolamine at the highest dose tested (20 mg/kg/day), which represents about 154 and 1479 times the human exposure, when based on Cmax and AUC following a single Tyvaso dose of 54 mcg, respectively. In pregnant rabbits, external fetal and soft tissue malformations and fetal skeletal malformation occurred. The dose at which no adverse effects were seen (0.5 mg/kg/day) represents about 9 and 145 times the human exposure, when based on Cmax and AUC following a single Tyvaso dose of 54 mcg, respectively. No treprostinil treatment-related effects on labor and delivery were seen in animal studies. Animal reproduction studies are not always predictive of human response.

    8.2 Lactation

    Risk Summary

    There are no data on the presence of treprostinil in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production.

    8.4 Pediatric Use

    Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established. Clinical studies of Tyvaso did not include patients younger than 18 years to determine whether they respond differently from older patients.

    8.5 Geriatric Use

    Clinical studies of Tyvaso did not include sufficient numbers of patients aged 65 years and over to determine whether they respond differently from younger patients. In general, dose selection for an elderly patient should be cautious, reflecting the greater frequency of hepatic, renal, or cardiac dysfunction, and of concomitant diseases or other drug therapy.

    8.6 Patients with Hepatic Insufficiency

    Plasma clearance of treprostinil, delivered subcutaneously, was reduced up to 80% in subjects with mild-to-moderate hepatic insufficiency. Uptitrate slowly when treating patients with hepatic insufficiency because of the risk of an increase in systemic exposure which may lead to an increase in dose-dependent adverse effects. Treprostinil has not been studied in patients with severe hepatic insufficiency [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3), Dosage and Administration (2.2) and Warnings and Precautions (5.3)].

    8.7 Patients with Renal Insufficiency

    No studies have been performed in patients with renal insufficiency. Since treprostinil and its metabolites are excreted mainly through the urinary route, patients with renal insufficiency may have decreased clearance of the drug and its metabolites and consequently, dose-related adverse outcomes may be more frequent [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3), Dosage and Administration (2.3) and Warnings and Precautions (5.3)].

  • 10 OVERDOSAGE

    In general, symptoms of overdose with Tyvaso include flushing, headache, hypotension, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Provide general supportive care until the symptoms of overdose have resolved.

  • 11 DESCRIPTION

    Tyvaso is a sterile formulation of treprostinil intended for administration by oral inhalation using the Tyvaso Inhalation System. Tyvaso is supplied in 2.9 mL low density polyethylene (LDPE) ampules, containing 1.74 mg treprostinil (0.6 mg/mL). Each ampule also contains 18.9 mg sodium chloride, 18.3 mg sodium citrate, 0.58 mg sodium hydroxide, 11.7 mg 1 N hydrochloric acid, and water for injection. Sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid may be added to adjust pH between 6.0 and 7.2.

    Treprostinil is (1R,2R,3aS,9aS)-[[2,3,3a,4,9,9a-hexahydro-2-hydroxy-1-[(3S)-3-hydroxyoctyl]-1H-benz[f]inden-5-yl]oxy]acetic acid. Treprostinil has a molecular weight of 390.52 and a molecular formula of C23H34O5.

    The structural formula of treprostinil is:

    Chemical Structure
  • 12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY

    12.1 Mechanism of Action

    Treprostinil is a prostacyclin analogue. The major pharmacologic actions of treprostinil are direct vasodilation of pulmonary and systemic arterial vascular beds and inhibition of platelet aggregation.

    12.2 Pharmacodynamics

    In a clinical trial of 240 healthy volunteers, single doses of Tyvaso 54 mcg (the target maintenance dose per session) and 84 mcg (supratherapeutic inhalation dose) prolonged the corrected QTc interval by approximately 10 ms. The QTc effect dissipated rapidly as the concentration of treprostinil decreased.

    12.3 Pharmacokinetics

    Pharmacokinetic information for single doses of inhaled treprostinil was obtained in healthy volunteers in three separate studies. Treprostinil systemic exposure (AUC and Cmax) post-inhalation was shown to be proportional to the doses administered (18 mcg – 90 mcg).

    Absorption and Distribution

    In a three-period crossover study, the bioavailability of two single doses of Tyvaso (18 mcg and 36 mcg) was compared with that of intravenous treprostinil in 18 healthy volunteers. Mean estimates of the absolute systemic bioavailability of treprostinil after inhalation were approximately 64% (18 mcg) and 72% (36 mcg).

    Treprostinil plasma exposure data were obtained from two studies at the target maintenance dose, 54 mcg. The mean Cmax at the target dose was 0.91 and 1.32 ng/mL with corresponding mean Tmax of 0.25 and 0.12 hr, respectively. The mean AUC for the 54 mcg dose was 0.81 and 0.97 hr∙ng/mL, respectively.

    Following parenteral infusion, the apparent steady state volume of distribution (Vss) of treprostinil is approximately 14 L/70 kg ideal body weight.

    In vitro treprostinil is 91% bound to human plasma proteins over the 330-10,000 mcg/L concentration range.

    Metabolism and Excretion

    Of subcutaneously administered treprostinil, only 4% is excreted unchanged in urine. Treprostinil is substantially metabolized by the liver, primarily by CYP2C8. Metabolites are excreted in urine (79%) and feces (13%) over 10 days. Five apparently inactive metabolites were detected in the urine, each accounting for 10-15% of the dose administered. Four of the metabolites are products of oxidation of the 3-hydroxyloctyl side chain and one is a glucuroconjugated derivative (treprostinil glucuronide).

    The elimination of treprostinil (following subcutaneous administration of treprostinil) is biphasic, with a terminal elimination half-life of approximately 4 hours using a two compartment model.

    Specific Populations

    Hepatic Insufficiency

    Plasma clearance of treprostinil, delivered subcutaneously, was reduced up to 80% in subjects presenting with mild-to-moderate hepatic insufficiency. Treprostinil has not been studied in patients with severe hepatic insufficiency [see Dosage and Administration (2.2), Warnings and Precautions (5.3) and Use in Specific Populations (8.6)].

    Renal Insufficiency

    No studies have been performed in patients with renal insufficiency; therefore, since treprostinil and its metabolites are excreted mainly through the urinary route, there is the potential for an increase in both parent drug and its metabolites and an increase in systemic exposure [see Dosage and Administration (2.3), Warnings and Precautions (5.3) and Use in Specific Populations (8.7)].

  • 13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY

    13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility

    A two-year rat carcinogenicity study was performed with treprostinil inhalation at target doses of 5.26, 10.6, and 34.1 mcg/kg/day. There was no evidence for carcinogenic potential associated with treprostinil inhalation in rats at systemic exposure levels up to 35 times the clinical exposure at the target maintenance dose of 54 mcg. In vitro and in vivo genetic toxicology studies did not demonstrate any mutagenic or clastogenic effects of treprostinil. Treprostinil sodium did not affect fertility or mating performance of male or female rats given continuous subcutaneous (sc) infusions at rates of up to 450 ng treprostinil/kg/min [about 59 times the recommended starting human sc infusion rate (1.25 ng/kg/min) and 8 times the average rate (9.3 ng/kg/min) achieved in clinical trials, on a ng/m2 basis]. In this study, males were dosed from 10 weeks prior to mating and through the 2-week mating period. Females were dosed from 2 weeks prior to mating until gestational day 6.

    Oral administration of treprostinil diolamine to Tg.rasH2 mice at 0, 5, 10 and 20 mg/kg/day in males and 0, 3, 7.5 and 15 mg/kg/day in females daily for 26 weeks did not significantly increase the incidence of tumors. The exposures, when based on AUC, obtained at the highest dose levels used in males and females are about 208- and 460-fold, respectively, the human exposure following a single inhaled dose of 54 mcg.

    Treprostinil diolamine was tested in vivo in a rat micronucleus assay and did not induce an increased incidence of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes.

    13.4 Inhalational Toxicity

    Rats and dogs that received daily administrations of treprostinil by inhalation for 3 months developed respiratory tract lesions (respiratory epithelial degeneration, goblet cell hyperplasia/hypertrophy, epithelial ulceration, squamous epithelial degeneration and necrosis, and lung hemorrhage). Some of the same lesions seen in animals sacrificed at the end of treatment (larynx, lung and nasal cavity lesions in rats, and lesions of the larynx in dogs) were also observed in animals sacrificed after a 4-week recovery period. Rats also developed cardiac changes (degeneration/fibrosis). A no-effect dose level for these effects was not demonstrated in rats (doses as low as 7 µg/kg/day were administered); whereas 107 µg/kg/day was a no-effect dose level in dogs.

    In a 2-year rat study with treprostinil inhalation at target doses of 5.26, 10.6, and 34.1 mcg/kg/day, there were more deaths (11) in the mid and high dose treprostinil groups during the first 9 weeks of the study, compared to 1 in control groups. At the high dose level, males showed a higher incidence of inflammation in teeth and preputial gland, and females showed higher incidences of inflammation and urothelial hyperplasia in the urinary bladder. The exposures in rats at mid and high dose levels were about 15 and 35 times, respectively, the clinical exposure at the target maintenance dose of 54 mcg.

  • 14 CLINICAL STUDIES

    14.1 Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (WHO Group I)

    TRIUMPH I, was a 12-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled multi-center study of patients with PAH. The study population included 235 clinically stable subjects with pulmonary arterial hypertension (WHO Group 1), nearly all with NYHA Class III (98%) symptoms who were receiving either bosentan (an endothelin receptor antagonist) or sildenafil (a phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor) for at least three months prior to study initiation. Concomitant therapy also could have included anticoagulants, other vasodilators (e.g., calcium channel blockers), diuretics, oxygen, and digitalis, but not a prostacyclin. These patients were administered either placebo or Tyvaso in four daily treatment sessions with a target dose of 9 breaths (54 mcg) per session over the course of the 12-week study. Patients were predominantly female (82%), had the origin of PAH as idiopathic/heritable (56%), secondary to connective tissue diseases (33%) or secondary to HIV or previous use of anorexigens (12%); bosentan was the concomitant oral medication in 70% of those enrolled, sildenafil in 30%.

    The primary efficacy endpoint of the trial was the change in six-minute walk distance (6MWD) relative to baseline at 12 weeks. 6MWD was measured at peak exposure (between 10 and 60 minutes after dosing), and 3-5 hours after bosentan or 0.5-2 hours after sildenafil. Patients receiving Tyvaso had a placebo-corrected median change from baseline in peak 6MWD of 20 meters at Week 12 (p<0.001). The distribution of these 6MWD changes from baseline at Week 12 were plotted across the range of observed values (Figure 1). 6MWD measured at trough exposure (defined as measurement of 6MWD at least 4 hours after dosing) improved by 14 meters. There were no placebo-controlled 6MWD assessments made after 12 weeks.

    Figure 1

    Figure 1: Distributions of 6MWD Changes from Baseline at Week 12 during Peak Plasma Concentration of Tyvaso

    The placebo-corrected median treatment effect on 6MWD was estimated (using the Hodges-Lehmann estimator) within various subpopulations defined by age quartile, gender, geographic region of the study site, disease etiology, baseline 6MWD quartile, and type of background therapy (Figure 2).

    Figure 2. Placebo Corrected Median Treatment Effect (Hodges-Lehmann estimate with 95% CI) on 6MWD Change from Baseline at Week 12 During Peak Plasma Concentration of Tyvaso for Various Subgroups

    14.2 Long-term Treatment of PAH

    In long-term follow-up of patients who were treated with Tyvaso in the pivotal study and the open-label extension (N=206), Kaplan-Meier estimates of survival at 1, 2, and 3 years were 97%, 91%, and 82%, respectively. These uncontrolled observations do not allow comparison with a control group not given Tyvaso and cannot be used to determine the long-term effect of Tyvaso on mortality.

  • 16 HOW SUPPLIED/STORAGE AND HANDLING

    Tyvaso (treprostinil) inhalation solution is supplied in 2.9 mL clear LDPE ampules packaged as four ampules in a foil pouch. Tyvaso is a clear colorless to slightly yellow solution containing 1.74 mg treprostinil per ampule at a concentration of 0.6 mg/mL.

    Ampules of Tyvaso are stable until the date indicated when stored in the unopened foil pouch at 25°C (77°F), with excursions permitted to 15-30°C (59-86°F) [see USP Controlled Room Temperature]. Once the foil pack is opened, ampules should be used within 7 days. Because Tyvaso is light-sensitive, unopened ampules should be stored in the foil pouch.

    C: Fill water chamber and medicine cup

    Important:

    • Wash your hands
      Figure
    • Unplug device when filling to avoid damage to cords or connectors.
    • Only use distilled water in the device. Distilled water is highly purified water that is required for the device to function properly. If you use another type of water (such as bottled or tap water), the device might not function properly. You can purchase distilled water at most grocery stores and pharmacies.

    1. Fill water chamber

    Fill the water level cup with distilled water up to the arrow markers on the water cup. Use fresh distilled water each day (ie, do not use water left in the water chamber from the previous day). Pour the distilled water into the water chamber.

    Make sure the water level is above the upper, silver sensor and below the blue ring in the water chamber (about 45 mL of distilled water).

    Do not overfill the water chamber, or else the medicine cup might not fit correctly.

    Figure

    2. Place medicine cup

    Obtain 1 new medicine cup and inspect it. Do not use a medicine cup that is damaged (e.g., cracked or contains holes or dents), dirty, or was used before.

    Place the empty medicine cup into the water chamber of the device, making sure that the cup's bottom tip is in the distilled water.

    Figure

    Figure CAUTION: Make sure you place only 1 medicine cup. Placing multiple cups will prevent the flow of medicine.

    3. Gather one ampule

    Carefully cut open the top of the foil pouch, making sure not to cut the ampules. Each pouch contains 4 ampules. Remove 1 ampule of TYVASO.

    Keep unused ampules in the foil pouch because the TYVASO medicine is sensitive to light. Write the date you first opened the pouch on the foil pouch.

    One ampule contains enough medicine for 1 day of treatment no matter how many breaths your doctor has prescribed.

    Figure

    Figure CAUTION: Ampules must be used within 7 days of opening foil pouch. Open only 1 pouch at a time. Throw away (discard) any unused ampules after 7 days.

    4. Open ampule

    Gently hold the ampule in the upright (top up) position and twist off its top.

    Figure

    Figure CAUTION: If any medicine from the ampule spills on your hands, wash your hands right away. Medicine contact with the skin can cause irritation.

    5. Squeeze ampule

    Point the ampule straight down toward the medicine cup's center to avoid spills.

    Gently squeeze the medicine out of the ampule into the medicine cup. Squeeze until it is empty. Check to see that all of the medicine is in the medicine cup.

    Figure
    D: Assemble inhalation device

    Important: Do not force parts together.

    The TYVASO Inhalation System is designed so the parts only fit together properly one way. When the device is assembled correctly, the parts should fit together easily.

    Figure

    1. Check dome assembly

    Visually check to make sure the black ring is securely placed in the dome assembly. The black ring should look like it does in the pictures below.

    If the black ring is loose or missing, do not use the dome assembly. Throw it away and get a new one. If you need to order a new dome assembly, contact your specialty pharmacy provider.

    Figure

    3. Install new filter membrane

    Each day you will need to use a new filter membrane in each filter shell.

    Note: New filter shells come with fresh filter membranes already installed.

    To install a new filter membrane:
    ▶ a. Open the filter shell by unscrewing the 2 halves.
    ▶ b. Place a new filter membrane in 1 of the filter shell halves.
    ▶ c. Close the filter shell by screwing the 2 halves together until you can twist no further.
    ▶ d. Repeat steps a-c for second filter shell.
    Figure

    4. Attach filter shells

    Insert 1 filter shell into the filter shell port on the side of the dome assembly and insert the second filter shell into the port on the bottom of the inhalation piece. The filter shells are the same and can be used in either port. You can turn the filter shells around to fit into the ports, as needed.

    Make sure to insert filter shells straight into ports, not at an angle.

    Figure

    See next page to start treatment.

    Inhalation tips:

    Technique:

    When breathing each TYVASO treatment, be sure to keep the device level, directing the flow of medicine into the throat and not toward the roof of the mouth.

    Seal your lips around the mouthpiece to ensure that you can inhale the full amount of TYVASO after it is produced by the device.

    Inhalation:

    Each breath should last approximately 3 seconds, breathing "normal full breaths." Do not hold your breath. Remove your lips from the mouthpiece, breathe out (exhale) normally and prepare for the next breath.

    3. Press blue button to start treatment

    If you need to pause treatment, you can press and immediately release (do not hold down) the blue button. Press the button again and immediately release to resume treatment. (Note: If you do not resume treatment after pausing, power off device.)

    Figure

    4. Wait

    Look at the display screen for cues. Wait until you hear 2 short beeps. When you hear 1 long beep, exhale to prepare to inhale.

    Figure

    5. Inhale

    When you hear 1 short beep and the indicator lights flash green, place your lips securely around the mouthpiece and inhale for 3 seconds. When lights stop flashing, remove lips from mouthpiece and exhale normally.

    Figure

    6. Repeat for each breath left

    The screen will decrease the number of breaths left by 1. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for the number of prescribed breaths.

    NOTE UT is the a.c. mains voltage prior to application of the test level.
    NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
    NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.
    *
    Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the Tyvaso Inhalation System is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the Tyvaso Inhalation System should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as re-orienting or relocating the Tyvaso Inhalation System.
    Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than [V1] V/m.
