- PK modeling data provide insights into potential dosing
conversions and strategies for switching to UZEDY from a
long-acting injectable (LAI) formulation of risperidone
microspheres (R064766)
- Additional UZEDY data include a new analysis from the Phase
3 RISE trial reinforcing its efficacy and safety profile in adults
with schizophrenia
- ADVANCE, a global survey study, will also provide real-world
findings on LAI utilization from healthcare professionals,
caregivers and patients
Teva Pharmaceuticals, a U.S. affiliate of Teva Pharmaceutical
Industries Ltd. (NYSE and TASE: TEVA), today announced the
presentation of eight studies from its LAI schizophrenia research
program, including data evaluating UZEDY, an extended-release
injectable suspension of risperidone for subcutaneous use every one
or two months for the treatment of schizophrenia in adults. The
data were presented at the 2024 Congress of the Schizophrenia
International Research Society (SIRS) taking place from April 3-7,
2024 in Florence, Italy.
“As part of Teva’s commitment to advancing treatment innovation
for schizophrenia patients, this research provides clinical
insights into how healthcare providers may switch appropriate
patients to UZEDY, a subcutaneous risperidone LAI option with
flexible dosing,” said Eric Hughes, MD, Ph.D, Executive Vice
President of Global R&D and Chief Medical Officer at Teva.
“Schizophrenia is a complex mental health condition where the
treatment needs and preferences of those living with it may evolve
over time. These data collectively demonstrate the efficacy and
safety profile of UZEDY – reinforcing its potential as a treatment
option that may help lower rates of relapse and
hospitalization.”
Presented data include population pharmacokinetic (PopPK)
modeling to investigate dosing conversion strategies for switching
patients to a once-monthly or once every two-months subcutaneous
dose of UZEDY from a biweekly intramuscular LAI formulation of
risperidone microspheres (R064766). The analysis aims to address
the knowledge gap as limited clinical data currently exist on
optimal strategies for switching between the various available LAI
treatment options, which have differing pharmacokinetic (PK)
properties.
In the PopPK analysis, patient model simulations showed that
switching to UZEDY at 4-6 weeks after the last dose of R064766
provided comparable PK exposures by the second dose. Specifically,
switching patients to UZEDY 5 weeks after the last dose of R064766
achieved PK exposures similar to those achieved with R064766 at a
steady state. The optimal switching strategy should be determined
by clinicians on an individual basis, considering factors such as
patient preference, scheduling convenience, and potential
tolerability issues or risk of symptom breakthrough.
Additional key data being presented at the SIRS Annual Meeting
include:
New data from RISE (Risperidone Subcutaneous Extended-Release
Study), the Phase 3 pivotal trial that supported the FDA approval
of UZEDY. An analysis estimated the number needed to treat (NNT)
and the number needed to harm (NNH), clinically relevant measures
that help provide healthcare providers with an understanding of the
benefits and risks of UZEDY and inform clinical
decision-making.
Qualitative data from two ADVANCE (Attitudes Driving Regional
Differences in LAI Antipsychotic Utilization for Schizophrenia
Among Healthcare Professionals, Patients, and Caregivers)
surveys:
- In the healthcare provider survey, ten psychiatrists (spending
an average of 45% of their time at hospital-based outpatient
clinics) and seven psychiatric nurses (averaging 47% of time at
community mental health centers) were interviewed. Findings suggest
that regional differences in LAI utilization rates are likely
influenced by a combination of factors, including systemic, HCP,
and patient factors.
- In the patient survey, approximately 20 patients and 19
caregivers completed a 60-minute interview regarding the use of
LAIs in schizophrenia. Unfavorable early experiences, especially in
the inpatient setting, can negatively impact patients’ perception
of and willingness to accept LAIs. The survey findings offer
further key insights into addressing global adherence and
inconsistent utilization challenges with LAIs.

injectable suspension for subcutaneous use and is not approved by
any regulatory authority for any use and its safety and efficacy
are not established.
About Schizophrenia
Schizophrenia is a chronic, progressive and severely
debilitating mental disorder that affects how one thinks, feels and
acts.1 Patients experience an array of symptoms, which
may include delusions, hallucinations, disorganized speech or
behavior and impaired cognitive ability.1,2,3
Approximately 1% of the world’s population will develop
schizophrenia in their lifetime, and 3.5 million people in the U.S.
are currently diagnosed with the condition.2,3 Although
schizophrenia can occur at any age, the average age of onset tends
to be in the late teens to the early 20s for men, and the late 20s
to early 30s for women.3 The long-term course of
schizophrenia is marked by episodes of partial or full remission
broken by relapses that often occur in the context of psychiatric
emergency and require hospitalization.3 Approximately
80% of patients experience multiple relapses over the first five
years of treatment, and each relapse carries a biological risk of
loss of function, treatment refractoriness, and changes in brain
morphology.4,5,6 Patients are often unaware of their
illness and its consequences, contributing to treatment
nonadherence, high discontinuation rates, and ultimately,
significant direct and indirect healthcare costs from subsequent
relapses and hospitalizations.1,2,3,4,5,6
About UZEDY
UZEDY (risperidone) extended-release injectable suspension, for
subcutaneous use, is indicated for the treatment of schizophrenia
in adults. In clinical trials, UZEDY significantly reduced the risk
of schizophrenia relapse.7,8 UZEDY administers
risperidone through copolymer technology under license from
MedinCell that allows for absorption and sustained release after
subcutaneous injection. UZEDY is the only long-acting, subcutaneous
formulation of risperidone available in both one- and two-month
dosing intervals.7 For full prescribing information,

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION CONTINUED
CONTRAINDICATIONS: UZEDY is contraindicated in patients
with a known hypersensitivity to risperidone, its metabolite,
paliperidone, or to any of its components. Hypersensitivity
reactions, including anaphylactic reactions and angioedema, have
been reported in patients treated with risperidone or
paliperidone.
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
Cerebrovascular Adverse Reactions: In trials of elderly
patients with dementia-related psychosis, there was a significantly
higher incidence of cerebrovascular adverse events (e.g., stroke,
transient ischemic attack), including fatalities, in patients
treated with oral risperidone compared to placebo. UZEDY is not
approved for use in patients with dementia-related psychosis.
Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome (NMS): NMS, a potentially
fatal symptom complex, has been reported in association with
antipsychotic drugs. Clinical manifestations of NMS are
hyperpyrexia, muscle rigidity, altered mental status including
delirium, and autonomic instability (irregular pulse or blood
pressure, tachycardia, diaphoresis, and cardiac dysrhythmia).
Additional signs may include elevated creatine phosphokinase,
myoglobinuria (rhabdomyolysis), and acute renal failure. If NMS is
suspected, immediately discontinue UZEDY and provide symptomatic
treatment and monitoring.
Tardive Dyskinesia (TD): TD, a syndrome consisting of
potentially irreversible, involuntary, dyskinetic movements, may
develop in patients treated with antipsychotic drugs. Although the
prevalence of the syndrome appears to be highest among the elderly,
especially elderly women, it is impossible to predict which
patients will develop the syndrome. Whether antipsychotic drug
products differ in their potential to cause TD is unknown.
The risk of developing TD and the likelihood that it will become
irreversible are believed to increase with the duration of
treatment and the cumulative dose. The syndrome can develop, after
relatively brief treatment periods, even at low doses. It may also
occur after discontinuation. TD may remit, partially or completely,
if antipsychotic treatment is discontinued. Antipsychotic
treatment, itself, however, may suppress (or partially suppress)
the signs and symptoms of the syndrome, possibly masking the
underlying process. The effect that symptomatic suppression has
upon the long-term course of the syndrome is unknown.
If signs and symptoms of TD appear in a patient treated with
UZEDY, drug discontinuation should be considered. However, some
patients may require treatment with UZEDY despite the presence of
the syndrome. In patients who do require chronic treatment, use the
lowest dose and the shortest duration of treatment producing a
satisfactory clinical response. Periodically reassess the need for
continued treatment.
Metabolic Changes: Atypical antipsychotic drugs have been
associated with metabolic changes that may increase
cardiovascular/cerebrovascular risk. These metabolic changes
include hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, and body weight gain. While
all of the drugs in the class have been shown to produce some
metabolic changes, each drug has its own specific risk profile.
Hyperglycemia and diabetes mellitus (DM), in some cases
extreme and associated with ketoacidosis or hyperosmolar coma or
death, have been reported in patients treated with atypical
antipsychotics, including risperidone. Patients with an established
diagnosis of DM who are started on atypical antipsychotics,
including UZEDY, should be monitored regularly for worsening of
glucose control. Patients with risk factors for DM (e.g., obesity,
family history of diabetes) who are starting treatment with
atypical antipsychotics, including UZEDY, should undergo fasting
blood glucose (FBG) testing at the beginning of treatment and
periodically during treatment. Any patient treated with atypical
antipsychotics, including UZEDY, should be monitored for symptoms
of hyperglycemia including polydipsia, polyuria, polyphagia, and
weakness. Patients who develop symptoms of hyperglycemia during
treatment with atypical antipsychotics, including UZEDY, should
undergo FBG testing. In some cases, hyperglycemia has resolved when
the atypical antipsychotic, including risperidone, was
discontinued; however, some patients required continuation of
antidiabetic treatment despite discontinuation of risperidone.
Dyslipidemia has been observed in patients treated with
atypical antipsychotics.
Weight gain has been observed with atypical antipsychotic
use. Monitoring weight is recommended.
Hyperprolactinemia: As with other drugs that antagonize
dopamine D2 receptors, risperidone elevates prolactin
levels and the elevation persists during chronic administration.
Risperidone is associated with higher levels of prolactin elevation
than other antipsychotic agents.
Orthostatic Hypotension and Syncope: UZEDY may induce
orthostatic hypotension associated with dizziness, tachycardia, and
in some patients, syncope. UZEDY should be used with particular
caution in patients with known cardiovascular disease,
cerebrovascular disease, and conditions which would predispose
patients to hypotension and in the elderly and patients with renal
or hepatic impairment. Monitoring of orthostatic vital signs should
be considered in all such patients, and a dose reduction should be
considered if hypotension occurs. Clinically significant
hypotension has been observed with concomitant use of oral
risperidone and antihypertensive medication.
Falls: Antipsychotics, including UZEDY, may cause
somnolence, postural hypotension, motor and sensory instability,
which may lead to falls and, consequently, fractures or other
fall-related injuries. Somnolence, postural hypotension, motor and
sensory instability have been reported with the use of risperidone.
For patients, particularly the elderly, with diseases, conditions,
or medications that could exacerbate these effects, assess the risk
of falls when initiating antipsychotic treatment and recurrently
for patients on long-term antipsychotic therapy.
Leukopenia, Neutropenia, and Agranulocytosis have been
reported with antipsychotic agents, including risperidone. In
patients with a pre-existing history of a clinically significant
low white blood cell count (WBC) or absolute neutrophil count (ANC)
or a history of drug-induced leukopenia or neutropenia, perform a
complete blood count (CBC) frequently during the first few months
of therapy. In such patients, consider discontinuation of UZEDY at
the first sign of a clinically significant decline in WBC in the
absence of other causative factors. Monitor patients with
clinically significant neutropenia for fever or other symptoms or
signs of infection and treat promptly if such symptoms or signs
occur. Discontinue UZEDY in patients with ANC <
1000/mm3) and follow their WBC until recovery.
Potential for Cognitive and Motor Impairment: UZEDY, like
other antipsychotics, may cause somnolence and has the potential to
impair judgement, thinking, and motor skills. Somnolence was a
commonly reported adverse reaction associated with oral risperidone
treatment. Caution patients about operating hazardous machinery,
including motor vehicles, until they are reasonably certain that
treatment with UZEDY does not affect them adversely.
Seizures: During premarketing studies of oral risperidone
in adult patients with schizophrenia, seizures occurred in 0.3% of
patients (9 out of 2,607 patients), two in association with
hyponatremia. Use UZEDY cautiously in patients with a history of
seizures or other conditions that potentially lower the seizure
threshold.
Dysphagia: Esophageal dysmotility and aspiration have
been associated with antipsychotic drug use. Antipsychotic drugs,
including UZEDY, should be used cautiously in patients at risk for
aspiration.
Priapism has been reported during postmarketing
surveillance for other risperidone products. A case of priapism was
reported in premarket studies of UZEDY. Severe priapism may require
surgical intervention.
Body temperature regulation. Disruption of the body’s
ability to reduce core body temperature has been attributed to
antipsychotic agents. Both hyperthermia and hypothermia have been
reported in association with oral risperidone use. Strenuous
exercise, exposure to extreme heat, dehydration, and
anticholinergic medications may contribute to an elevation in core
body temperature; use UZEDY with caution in patients who experience
these conditions.
ADVERSE REACTIONS
The most common adverse reactions with risperidone (≥5% and
greater than placebo) were parkinsonism, akathisia, dystonia,
tremor, sedation, dizziness, anxiety, blurred vision, nausea,
vomiting, upper abdominal pain, stomach discomfort, dyspepsia,
diarrhea, salivary hypersecretion, constipation, dry mouth,
increased appetite, increased weight, fatigue, rash, nasal
congestion, upper respiratory tract infection, nasopharyngitis, and
pharyngolaryngeal pain.
The most common injection site reactions with UZEDY (≥5% and
greater than placebo) were pruritus and nodule.
DRUG INTERACTIONS
- Carbamazepine and other strong CYP3A4 inducers decrease plasma
concentrations of risperidone.
- Fluoxetine, paroxetine, and other strong CYP2D6 inhibitors
increase risperidone plasma concentration.
- Due to additive pharmacologic effects, the concomitant use of
centrally-acting drugs, including alcohol, may increase nervous
system disorders.
- UZEDY may enhance the hypotensive effects of other therapeutic
agents with this potential.
- UZEDY may antagonize the pharmacologic effects of dopamine
agonists.
- Concomitant use with methylphenidate, when there is change in
dosage of either medication, may increase the risk of
extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS)
USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS
Pregnancy: May cause EPS and/or withdrawal symptoms in
neonates with third trimester exposure. There is a pregnancy
exposure registry that monitors pregnancy outcomes in women exposed
to atypical antipsychotics, including UZEDY, during pregnancy.
Healthcare providers are encouraged to register patients by
contacting the National Pregnancy Registry for Atypical
Antipsychotics at 1-866-961-2388 or online at
http://womensmentalhealth.org/clinicaland-research-programs/pregnancyregistry/.
Lactation: Infants exposed to risperidone through
breastmilk should be monitored for excess sedation, failure to
thrive, jitteriness, and EPS.
Fertility: UZEDY may cause a reversible reduction in
fertility in females.
Pediatric Use: Safety and effectiveness of UZEDY have not
been established in pediatric patients.
Renal or Hepatic Impairment: Carefully titrate on oral
risperidone up to at least 2 mg daily before initiating treatment
with UZEDY.
Patients with Parkinson’s disease or dementia with Lewy
bodies can experience increased sensitivity to UZEDY.
Manifestations and features are consistent with NMS.
Please see the full Prescribing Information for
UZEDY, including Boxed WARNING.
About AUSTEDO® XR Extended-Release
Tablets and AUSTEDO® Tablets
AUSTEDO XR and AUSTEDO are the first vesicular monoamine
transporter 2 (VMAT2) inhibitors approved by the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration in adults for the treatment of tardive dyskinesia
and for the treatment of chorea associated with Huntington’s
disease. Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not
been established. AUSTEDO XR is the once-daily formulation of
AUSTEDO.
INDICATIONS AND USAGE
AUSTEDO® XR (deutetrabenazine) extended-release
tablets and AUSTEDO® (deutetrabenazine) tablets are
indicated in adults for the treatment of chorea associated with
Huntington’s disease and for the treatment of tardive
dyskinesia.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Depression and Suicidality in Patients with Huntington’s
Disease: AUSTEDO XR and AUSTEDO can increase the risk of
depression and suicidal thoughts and behavior (suicidality) in
patients with Huntington’s disease. Balance the risks of depression
and suicidality with the clinical need for treatment of chorea.
Closely monitor patients for the emergence or worsening of
depression, suicidality, or unusual changes in behavior. Inform
patients, their caregivers, and families of the risk of depression
and suicidality and instruct them to report behaviors of concern
promptly to the treating physician. Exercise caution when treating
patients with a history of depression or prior suicide attempts or
ideation. AUSTEDO XR and AUSTEDO are contraindicated in patients
who are suicidal, and in patients with untreated or inadequately
treated depression.
Contraindications: AUSTEDO XR and AUSTEDO are
contraindicated in patients with Huntington’s disease who are
suicidal, or have untreated or inadequately treated depression.
AUSTEDO XR and AUSTEDO are also contraindicated in: patients with
hepatic impairment; patients taking reserpine or within 20 days of
discontinuing reserpine; patients taking monoamine oxidase
inhibitors (MAOIs), or within 14 days of discontinuing MAOI
therapy; and patients taking tetrabenazine or valbenazine.
Clinical Worsening and Adverse Events in Patients with
Huntington’s Disease: AUSTEDO XR and AUSTEDO may cause a
worsening in mood, cognition, rigidity, and functional
capacity. Prescribers should periodically re-evaluate the
need for AUSTEDO XR or AUSTEDO in their patients by assessing the
effect on chorea and possible adverse effects.
QTc Prolongation: AUSTEDO XR and AUSTEDO may prolong the
QT interval, but the degree of QT prolongation is not clinically
significant when AUSTEDO XR or AUSTEDO is administered within the
recommended dosage range. AUSTEDO XR and AUSTEDO should be avoided
in patients with congenital long QT syndrome and in patients with a
history of cardiac arrhythmias.
Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome (NMS), a potentially fatal
symptom complex reported in association with drugs that reduce
dopaminergic transmission, has been observed in patients receiving
tetrabenazine. The risk may be increased by concomitant use of
dopamine antagonists or antipsychotics. The management of NMS
should include immediate discontinuation of AUSTEDO XR and AUSTEDO;
intensive symptomatic treatment and medical monitoring; and
treatment of any concomitant serious medical problems.
Akathisia, Agitation, and Restlessness: AUSTEDO XR and
AUSTEDO may increase the risk of akathisia, agitation, and
restlessness. The risk of akathisia may be increased by concomitant
use of dopamine antagonists or antipsychotics. If a patient
develops akathisia, the AUSTEDO XR or AUSTEDO dose should be
reduced; some patients may require discontinuation of therapy.
Parkinsonism: AUSTEDO XR and AUSTEDO may cause
parkinsonism in patients with Huntington’s disease or tardive
dyskinesia. Parkinsonism has also been observed with other VMAT2
inhibitors. The risk of parkinsonism may be increased by
concomitant use of dopamine antagonists or antipsychotics. If a
patient develops parkinsonism, the AUSTEDO XR or AUSTEDO dose
should be reduced; some patients may require discontinuation of
therapy.
Sedation and Somnolence: Sedation is a common
dose-limiting adverse reaction of AUSTEDO XR and AUSTEDO. Patients
should not perform activities requiring mental alertness, such as
operating a motor vehicle or hazardous machinery, until they are on
a maintenance dose of AUSTEDO XR or AUSTEDO and know how the drug
affects them. Concomitant use of alcohol or other sedating drugs
may have additive effects and worsen sedation and somnolence.
Hyperprolactinemia: Tetrabenazine elevates serum
prolactin concentrations in humans. If there is a clinical
suspicion of symptomatic hyperprolactinemia, appropriate laboratory
testing should be done and consideration should be given to
discontinuation of AUSTEDO XR and AUSTEDO.
Binding to Melanin-Containing Tissues: Deutetrabenazine
or its metabolites bind to melanin-containing tissues and could
accumulate in these tissues over time. Prescribers should be aware
of the possibility of long-term ophthalmologic effects.
Common Adverse Reactions: The most common adverse
reactions for AUSTEDO (>8% and greater than placebo) in a
controlled clinical study in patients with Huntington’s disease
were somnolence, diarrhea, dry mouth, and fatigue. The most common
adverse reactions for AUSTEDO (4% and greater than placebo) in
controlled clinical studies in patients with tardive dyskinesia
were nasopharyngitis and insomnia. Adverse reactions with AUSTEDO
XR extended-release tablets are expected to be similar to AUSTEDO
tablets.
