Safety data in PsA

Adverse reaction rates observed in clinical trials may not fully characterize the risks of RINVOQ. Certain adverse events may require longer observation periods and longer-term patient exposure to ascertain risk.

bTEAEs were defined as AEs with an onset date that is on or after the first dose of study drug, and no more than 30 days after the last dose of RINVOQ and placebo if subject discontinued study drug prematurely.5

Overall, the safety profile observed in patients with active PsA treated with RINVOQ 15 mg is consistent with the safety profile observed in patients with RA, with the addition of herpes zoster, herpes simplex, acne, and bronchitis.
 

Adverse reaction rates observed in clinical trials may not fully characterize the risks of RINVOQ. Certain adverse events may require longer observation periods and longer-term patient exposure to ascertain risk.
 

RINVOQ is taken once daily.

Lab monitoring and
Dosing considerations1

Lab monitoring

TREATMENT WITH RINVOQ SHOULD NOT BE INITIATED, OR SHOULD BE INTERRUPTED IF:

Absolute neutrophil count
<1000 cells/mm3*

Absolute lymphocyte count
<500 cells/mm3*

Hemoglobin levels
<8 g/dL*

Liver enzyme elevations
and a
drug-induced liver
injury is suspected*

Patient has or develops
a serious or
opportunistic infection*

*Treatment can be initiated or restarted after levels return above specified values, drug-induced liver injury diagnosis is excluded, or infection is controlled.

In RA, PsA, AS, and nr-axSpA:

No dose adjustment is required for mild, moderate, or severe renal impairment.1

No dose adjustment is required for mild or moderate hepatic impairment.1

RINVOQ is not recommended in patients with:

  • Active hepatitis B or hepatitis C

  • Severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh C)

RINVOQ has not been studied in end-stage renal disease (eGFR <15 mL/min/1.73m2)

HYPERSENSITIVITY:RINVOQ is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to upadacitinib or any of its excipients. If a clinically significant hypersensitivity reaction occurs, discontinue RINVOQ and institute appropriate therapy.

Lab Abnormalities from the Package Insert1

Neutropenia: Decreases in absolute neutrophil count (<1000 cells/mm3) were associated with RINVOQ treatment.

Lymphopenia: Decreases in lymphocyte counts (<500 cells/mm3) were reported with RINVOQ treatment.

Anemia: Hemoglobin decreases below 8 g/dL were reported with RINVOQ treatment.

Lipid Elevations: Increases in lipid parameters including total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL, and HDL were observed in patients treated with RINVOQ. Elevations in LDL and HDL cholesterol peaked by week 8 and remained stable thereafter.

Liver Enzyme Elevations: Increased incidences in liver enzyme elevations were associated with RINVOQ compared to placebo.
