Warnings
Black Box Warnings
Long-acting beta2-adrenergic agonists (LABAs) increase the risk of asthma-related death
Data from a large placebo-controlled US study that compared the safety of another long-acting beta2-adrenergic agonist (salmeterol) or placebo added to usual asthma therapy showed an increase in asthma-related deaths in patients receiving salmeterol
This finding with salmeterol is considered a class effect of LABA, including indacaterol
The safety and efficacy of indacaterol in patients with asthma have not been established
Indacaterol is NOT indicated for the treatment of asthma
Contraindications
Hypersensitivity
Use of a long-acting beta2-adrenergic agonists (LABAs) without an inhaled corticosteroid in patients with asthma
Cautions
Do not initiate in acutely deteriorating COPD patients
Do not use for relief of acute symptoms; prescribe concomitant short-acting beta2-agonists for acute exacerbations
Do not exceed recommended daily dose; excessive doses may result in cardiovascular effects and may be fatal
Life-threatening paradoxical bronchospasm can occur; discontinue use immediately
Immediate hypersensitivity reactions may occur after administration of therapy; if signs suggesting allergic reactions (in particular, difficulties in breathing or swallowing, swelling of tongue, lips and face, urticaria, skin rash, anaphylaxis) occur, discontinue therapy and institute alternative therapy
Safety and efficacy in patients with asthma not established; not indicated for asthma
Data from a large placebo-controlled study in asthma patients showed that long-acting beta2-adrenergic agonists may increase the risk of asthma-related death (see Black Box Warnings)
Caution with CV disease, epilepsy, thyrotoxicosis, or sensitivity to sympathomimetics
Contains trace levels of milk protein
Tolerance to the effects of inhaled beta-agonists can occur with regularly-scheduled, chronic use
Increased sympathomimetic effects may occur if coadministered with other adrenergic drugs
May cause hypokalemia; this effect may be potentiated if coadministered with xanthine derivatives, corticosteroids, or diuretics
ECG changes or hypokalemia that may result from non-potassium sparing diuretics (eg, thiazides or loop diuretics) can be acutely worsened by beta-agonists, especially with high doses; use caution
Caution with coadministration of MOAIs, TCAs, and drugs that prolong QTc interval
Beta blockers may antagonize the effect of indacaterol
Strong dual inhibitors of CYP3A4 and P-gp (ie, ketoconazole, erythromycin, verapamil, ritonavir) may delay systemic clearance of indacaterol (AUC increased 1.9-fold); no dose adjustment is warranted with 75 mcg/day
Beta2 agonists may increase serum glucose; use caution in patients with diabetes mellitus
Use caution in patients with seizure disorders
Pregnancy & Lactation
Pregnancy
There are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women; women should be advised to contact their physician if they become pregnant while receiving therapy
There are no adequate and well-controlled human studies that have investigated effects during labor and delivery; because beta-agonist may potentially interfere with uterine contractility, drug should be used during labor only if potential benefit justifies potential risk
Animal data
- In animal reproduction studies, there was no evidence of fetal harm or structural abnormalities following subcutaneous administration of indacaterol maleate to pregnant Wistar rats and New Zealand White rabbits during the period of organogenesis at exposures approximately 180 and 410 times the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD of 75 mcg), respectively, on an exposure area under the curve (AUC) basis
Lactation
There is no data on presence of indacaterol in human milk, effect on breastfed infant, or on milk production; drug is present in milk of lactating rats; developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with mother’s clinical need for therapy and any potential adverse effects on breastfed child from drug or underlying maternal condition
Pregnancy Categories
A: Generally acceptable. Controlled studies in pregnant women show no evidence of fetal risk.
B: May be acceptable. Either animal studies show no risk but human studies not available or animal studies showed minor risks and human studies done and showed no risk. C: Use with caution if benefits outweigh risks. Animal studies show risk and human studies not available or neither animal nor human studies done. D: Use in LIFE-THREATENING emergencies when no safer drug available. Positive evidence of human fetal risk. X: Do not use in pregnancy. Risks involved outweigh potential benefits. Safer alternatives exist. NA: Information not available.Pharmacology
Mechanism of Action
Long-acting beta2-adrenergic agonist; when inhaled, acts locally in the lung as a bronchodilator
Stimulates intracellular adenyl cyclase, causing conversion of ATP to cyclic AMP; increased cyclic AMP levels cause relaxation of bronchial smooth muscle
In vitro studies have shown that indacaterol has more than 24-fold greater agonist activity at beta2-receptors compared to beta1-receptors (selectivity profile is similar to formoterol)
Absorption
Bioavailability: 43-45% following inhalation (composite of pulmonary and intestinal absorption)
Peak Plasma Time: 15 min
Distribution
Protein Bound: 95% (after IV administration)
Vd: 2361-2557 L (after IV administration)
Metabolism
Metabolized by UGT1A1, CYP3A4 (predominant for hydroxylation), CYP1A1, CYP2D6
Low affinity for efflux pump P-gp
In vitro investigations indicated that indacaterol has negligible potential to cause metabolic interactions with medications (by inhibition or induction of cytochrome P450 enzymes, or induction of UGT1A1)
Elimination
Half-life (terminal): 45.5-126 hr, multiphasic half-life
Half-life (effective): 40-56 hr, calculated from accumulation after repeated dosing
Renal clearance: 0.46-1.2 L/hr
Total body clearance: 18.8-23.3 L/hr
Excretion: feces (54% unchanged, 23% hydroxylated metabolites), urine (<2%)
Pharmacogenomics
Pharmacokinetics were prospectively investigated in individuals with the UGT1A1 (TA)7/(TA)7 genotype (low UGT1A1 expression; also referred to as *28) and the (TA)6, (TA)6 genotype
Steady-state AUC and Cmax were 1.2-fold higher in the [(TA)7, (TA)7] genotype, suggesting no relevant effect of UGT1A1 genotype of indacaterol exposure
