Postmarketing Reports
Hypersensitivity: anaphylaxis, angioedema (e.g. swollen face and throat), dyspnea, throat tightness, and chest pain/tightness
Warnings
Contraindications
Documented hypersensitivity to drug or components of the formulation
Patients who do not have a gallbladder
Known or suspected gallbladder obstruction, biliary duct obstruction or sphincter of Oddi disease or dysfunction; increased risk for sphincter of Oddi spasm
Alcoholism, alcohol abuse, alcohol addiction, or in patients who drink >3 alcoholic beverages/day; increased risk of pancreatitis
History of pancreatitis, pancreatic duct obstruction, or structural diseases of the pancreas; increased risk of acute pancreatitis
Severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh C); risk of significantly increased eluxadoline plasma concentrations
History of chronic or severe constipation or sequelae from constipation, or known mechanical GI obstruction; increased risk of bowel obstruction
Cautions
Eluxadoline is a mu opioid receptor agonist; because of this mechanism of action, the potential for increased risk of sphincter of Oddi spasm exists, resulting in pancreatitis or hepatic enzyme elevation associated with acute abdominal pain (see Contraindications)
There is risk of sphincter of Oddi spasm, resulting in pancreatitis or hepatic enzyme elevation associated with acute abdominal pain (e.g., biliary-type pain) in patients receiving therapy; instruct patients to immediately stop therapy and seek medical attention if they experience symptoms suggestive of sphincter of Oddi spasm such as acute worsening of abdominal pain
Increased risk of pancreatitis not associated with sphincter of Oddi spasm reported; most cases were associated with excessive alcohol use
In patients with a gallbladder, evaluate a patient’s alcohol intake prior to starting therapy; instruct patients to avoid chronic or acute excessive alcohol use while in therapy; monitor for new or worsening abdominal pain that may radiate to back or shoulder, with or without nausea and vomiting; instruct patients to immediately stop therapy and seek medical attention if they experience symptoms suggestive of pancreatitis such as acute abdominal or epigastric pain radiating to back or shoulder associated with elevations of pancreatic enzymes with or without nausea and vomiting
Constipation requiring hospitalization reported; severe cases with development of intestinal obstruction, intestinal perforation, and fecal impaction, requiring intervention, also reported; instruct patients to stop therapy and immediately contact their healthcare provider if they experience severe constipation; avoid use with other drugs that may cause constipation
In postmarketing experience, serious hypersensitivity reactions (including anaphylaxis) reported; some of these reactions occurred after first one or two doses of treatment; instruct patients to immediately stop therapy and seek medical attention if they experience symptoms suggestive of a hypersensitivity reaction
Patients who do not have a gallbladder
- Monitor patients without a gallbladder for new or worsening abdominal pain, with or without nausea and vomiting, or acute biliary pain with liver or pancreatic enzyme elevations
- Discontinue therapy and seek medical attention if symptoms develop
- March 2017: An FDA review found patients who do not have a gallbladder are at increased risk of developing serious pancreatitis that could result in hospitalization or death
- Symptoms of pancreatitis have occurred with just 1 or 2 doses of eluxadoline at the recommended dosage for patients who do not have a gallbladder (75 mg) and who do not consume alcohol
- Pancreatitis, with or without sphincter of Oddi spasm, reported in patients taking either the 75 mg or 100 mg dosage, including serious cases resulting in hospitalization, primarily in patients without a gallbladder; fatal cases also reported in patients without a gallbladder
The FDA is recommending the following
- Physicians should not prescribe eluxadoline to patients without a gallbladder
- Patients taking eluxadoline who do not have a gallbladder should talk to their health care professional to consider other treatment options
Data summary
- From May 2015 through February 2017, the FDA received reports of 120 serious cases of pancreatitis or death; 76 of these cases resulted in hospitalization, of which 2 patients died
- Among the 68 cases that reported gallbladder status, 56 cases of pancreatitis or death occurred in patients who do not have a gallbladder
- The majority of patients (n=44/56) received the currently recommended dosage (75 mg) for patients who do not have a gallbladder
- Of the 56 cases in patients who do not have a gallbladder, 21 reported that the patient did not abuse alcohol and 35 did not report alcohol use status
Drug interaction overview
- OATP1B1 inhibitors may increase systemic exposure to eluxadoline
- Strong CYP inhibitors may increase systemic exposure to eluxadoline
- Risk of constipation increased when coadministered with other drugs that cause constipation
- Eluxadoline may increase systemic exposure of coadministered OATP1B1 and BCRP substrates
- Eluxadoline may increase systemic exposure of coadministered CYP3A substrates with a narrow therapeutic index
Pregnancy & Lactation
Pregnancy
No studies in pregnant women
Animal reproduction studies
- Oral and SC administration of eluxadoline to rats and rabbits during organogenesis at doses approximately 51 and 115 times the human exposure after a single oral dose of 100 mg, respectively, demonstrated no teratogenic effects. In a prenatal and postnatal development study in rats
- No adverse effects were observed in offspring with oral administration of eluxadoline at doses approximately 10 times the human exposure
Lactation
Unknown if distributed in human breast milk
Secreted in rat milk
Consider the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding along with the mother’s clinical need for the drug and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from the drug or from the 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
Mu opioid receptor agonist; it also is a delta opioid receptor antagonist and a kappa opioid receptor agonist
The multiple opioid activity is designed to treat the symptoms of IBS-D while reducing the incidence of constipation that can occur with unopposed mu opioid receptor agonists
Absorption
Peak plasma time: 1.5 hr (with food); 2 hr (fasting)
Peak plasma concentration: 2-4 ng/mL (decreased by 50% with high-fat meal)
AUC: 12-22 ng•hr/mL (decreased by 60% with high-fat meal)
Distribution
Protein bound: 81%
Metabolism
Not clearly established; eluxadoline may decrease elimination of CYP3A, OATP1B1, and BCRP substrates
OATP1B1 inhibitors and strong CYP inhibitors may decrease elimination of eluxadoline
Evidence exists that glucuronidation can occur to form an acyl glucuronide metabolite
Elimination
Half-life: 3-7-6 hr
Excretion: 82.2% feces; <1% urine
Administration
Instructions
Take with food
If a dose is missed, take the next dose at the regular time; do not take 2 doses at the same time to make up for a missed dose
Discontinue with severe constipation that lasts >4 days
Storage
Store at controlled room temperature (20-25°C [68-77°F]); excursions permitted to 15-30°C (59-86°F)
