In the Japanese sub-population, adjunctive fe= nfluramine, at a dose of 0.7 mg/kg/day, provided a greater reduction in the= frequency of drop seizures compared to placebo. The most common (=E2=89=A5= 10%) non-cardiovascular treatment=E2=80=93emergent adverse events (TEAEs) w= ere decreased appetite, somnolence, weight decreased, diarrhea, and nasopha= ryngitis. No cases of valvular heart disease or pulmonary arterial hyperten= sion were observed.^2 =E2=80=9CWe know that the unmet needs in Lennox-Gastaut syndrome are great,= and we look forward to bringing this important treatment advancement to pe= ople and families impacted by this condition in Japan.

In addition to being associated with bodily injury and hospitaliz= ations, GTC seizures are a primary risk factor of sudden unexpected death i= n epilepsy (SUDEP). Patients with epilepsy with GTC seizures have an approx= imately 10-fold greater risk for SUDEP than patients with other seizure typ= es.^2 Fenfluramine is marketed in Japan by Nippon Shinyaku Co., Ltd. based on the= exclusive sales agreement signed in 2019 between Zogenix Inc., (acquired b= y UCB in 2022) and Nippon Shinyaku Co., Ltd.

Shoul= d be initiated and supervised by physicians with experience in the treatmen= t of epilepsy. Fintepla is prescribed and dispensed according to the Fintep= la controlled access programme. Dravet syndrome: Patients who are not takin= g stiripentol: Starting dose is 0.1 mg/kg twice daily (0.2 mg/kg/day). Afte= r 7 days, if tolerated, can increase dose to 0.2 mg/kg twice daily (0.4 mg/= kg/day). After an additional 7 days, if tolerated and further seizure reduc= tion required, can increase dose to a maximum of 0.35 mg/kg twice daily (0.= 7 mg/kg/day), which is the recommended maintenance dose. Patients requiring= more rapid titration may increase the dose every 4 days. Do not exceed max= imum daily dose of 26 mg (13 mg twice daily). Patients who are taking stiri= pentol: Starting dose is 0.1 mg/kg twice daily (0.2 mg/kg/day). After 7 day= s, if tolerated, can increase dose to 0.2 mg/kg twice daily (0.4 mg/kg/day)= , which is the recommended maintenance dose. Patients requiring more rapid = titration may increase the dose every 4 days. Do not exceed a total dose of= 17 mg (8.6 mg twice daily). Lennox-Gastaut syndrome: Starting dose is 0.1 = mg/kg twice daily (0.2 mg/kg/day). After 7 days, the dose should be increas= ed to 0.2 mg/kg twice daily (0.4 mg/kg/day), if tolerated. After an additio= nal 7 days, if tolerated, dose should be increased to 0.35 mg/kg twice dail= y (0.7 mg/kg/day), which is the recommended maintenance dose. Do not exceed= maximum daily dose of 26 mg (13 mg twice daily). Discontinuation: When dis= continuing treatment, decrease the dose gradually. As with all anti-epilept= ic medicines, avoid abrupt discontinuation when possible to minimize the ri= sk of increased seizure frequency and status epilepticus. A final echocardi= ogram should be conducted 3-6 months after the last dose of treatment with = fenfluramine. Renal impairment: Generally, no dose adjustment is recommende= d when administered to patients with mild to severe renal impairment, howev= er, a slower titration may be considered. If adverse reactions are reported= , a dose reduction may be needed. Has not been studied in patients with end= -stage renal disease. Not known if fenfluramine or its active metabolite, n= orfenfluramine, is dialyzable. Hepatic impairment: Hepatic impairment: Gene= rally, no dose adjustment is recommended when Fintepla is administered with= out concomitant stiripentol to patients with mild and moderate hepatic impa= irment (Child-Pugh Class A and B). In patients with severe hepatic impairme= nt (Child-Pugh C) not receiving concomitant stiripentol, the maximum dosage= is 0.2mg/kg twice daily, and the maximal total daily dose is 17 mg. There = are limited clinical data on the use of Fintepla with stiripentol in patien= ts with mild impaired hepatic function. A slower titration may be considere= d in patients with hepatic impairment and a dose reduction may be needed if= adverse reactions are reported. No clinical data is available on the use o= f Fintepla with stiripentol in moderate and severe hepatic impairment, ther= efore not recommended for use. Elderly: No data available. Paediatric popul= ation: Safety and efficacy in children below 2 years of age not yet establi= shed. No data available.=C2=A0 Contraindications: Hypersensitivity to active substance or any excipients. = Aortic or mitral valvular heart disease and pulmonary arterial hypertension= . Within 14 days of the administration of monoamine oxidase inhibitors due = to an increased risk of serotonin syndrome.=C2=A0 Warnings and Precautions: Aortic or mitral valvular heart disease and pulmo= nary arterial hypertension: Prior to starting treatment, patients must unde= rgo an echocardiogram to establish a baseline and exclude any pre-existing = valvular heart disease or pulmonary hypertension. Conduct echocardiogram mo= nitoring every 6 months for the first 2 years and annually thereafter. If a= n echocardiogram indicates pathological valvular changes, consider follow-u= p earlier to evaluate whether the abnormality is persistent. If pathologica= l abnormalities seen on echocardiogram, evaluate the benefit versus risk of= continuing fenfluramine treatment with the prescriber, caregiver and cardi= ologist. Once treatment is discontinued for any reasons, a final echocardio= gram should be conducted 3-6 months after the last dose of treatment with f= enfluramine. If echocardiogram findings suggestive of pulmonary arterial hy= pertension, perform a repeat echocardiogram as soon as possible and within = 3 months to confirm these findings. If echocardiogram finding is confirmed = suggestive of an increased probability of pulmonary arterial hypertension d= efined as intermediate probability, conduct a benefit-risk evaluation of co= ntinuation of Fintepla by the prescriber, carer and cardiologist. If echoca= rdiogram suggests a high probability, it is recommended fenfluramine treatm= ent should be stopped. Decreased appetite and weight loss: Fenfluramine can= cause decreased appetite and weight loss - an additive effect can occur in= combination with other anti-epileptic medicines such as stiripentol. Monit= or the patient=E2=80=99s weight. Undertake risk-benefit evaluation before s= tarting treatment if history of anorexia nervosa or bulimia nervosa. Fintep= la controlled access programme: A controlled access programme has been crea= ted to 1) prevent off-label use in weight management in obese patients and = 2) confirm that prescribing physicians have been informed of the need for p= eriodic cardiac monitoring in patients taking Fintepla. Somnolence: Fenflur= amine can cause somnolence which could be potentiated by other central nerv= ous system depressants. Suicidal behaviour and ideation: Suicidal behaviour= and ideation have been reported in patients treated with anti-epileptic me= dicines in several indications. Advise patients and caregivers to seek medi= cal advice should any signs of suicidal behaviour and ideation emerge. Sero= tonin syndrome: Serotonin syndrome, a potentially life-threatening conditio= n, may occur with fenfluramine treatment, particularly with concomitant use= of other serotonergic agents; with agents that impair metabolism of seroto= nin such as MAOIs; or with antipsychotics that may affect the serotonergic = neurotransmitter systems. Carefully observe the patient, particularly durin= g treatment initiation and dose increases. Increased seizure frequency: A c= linically relevant increase in seizure frequency may occur during treatment= , which may require adjustment in the dose of fenfluramine and/or concomita= nt anti-epileptic medicines, or discontinuation of fenfluramine, should the= benefit-risk be negative. Cyproheptadine: Cyproheptadine is a potent serot= onin receptor antagonist and may therefore decrease the efficacy of fenflur= amine. If cyproheptadine is added to treatment with fenfluramine, monitor p= atient for worsening of seizures. If fenfluramine treatment is initiated in= a patient taking cyproheptadine, fenfluramine=E2=80=99s efficacy may be re= duced. Glaucoma: Fenfluramine can cause mydriasis and can precipitate angle= closure glaucoma. Discontinue therapy in patients with acute decreases in = visual acuity. Consider discontinuation if ocular pain of unknown origin. E= ffect of CYP1A2 or CYP2B6 inducers: Co-administration with strong CYP1A2 in= ducers or CYP2B6 inducers will decrease fenfluramine plasma concentrations,= which may lower the efficacy of fenfluramine. If co-administration is cons= idered necessary, the patient should be monitored for reduced efficacy and = a dose increase of fenfluramine could be considered provided that it does n= ot exceed twice the maximum daily dose (52 mg/day). If a strong CYP1A2 or C= YP2B6 inducer is discontinued during maintenance treatment with fenfluramin= e, consider gradual reduction of the fenfluramine dosage to the dose admini= stered prior to initiating the inducer. Effect of CYP1A2 or CYP2D6 inhibito= rs: Initiation of concomitant treatment with a strong CYP1A2 or CYP2D6 inhi= bitor may result in higher exposure and, therefore, adverse events should b= e monitored, and a dose reduction may be needed in some patients. Excipient= s: Contains sodium ethyl para-hydroxybenzoate (E 215) and sodium methyl par= a-hydroxybenzoate (E 219) - may cause allergic reactions (possibly delayed)= . It also contains sulfur dioxide (E 220) which may rarely cause severe hyp= ersensitivity reactions and bronchospasm. Patients with rare glucose-galact= ose malabsorption should not take this medicine. The product contains less = than 1 mmol sodium (23 mg) per the maximum daily dose of 12 mL; essentially= =E2=80=98sodium-free=E2=80=99. Contains glucose - may be harmful to teeth.= Interactions: Pharmacodynamic interactions with other CNS depressants incr= ease the risk of aggravated central nervous system depression. An increase = in dose may be necessary when coadministered with rifampicin or a strong CY= P1A2 or CYP2B6 inducer. In in vitro studies co-administration with a strong= CYP1A2 or CYP2D6 inhibitor may result in higher exposure (see section 4.4 = of the SmPC). Co-administration with CYP2D6 substrates or MATE1 substrates = may increase their plasma concentrations. Co-administration with CYP2B6 or = CYP3A4 substrates may decrease their plasma concentrations. Pregnancy and l= actation: Limited data in pregnant women. As a precaution, avoid use of Fin= tepla in pregnancy. It is unknown whether fenfluramine/metabolites are excr= eted in human milk. Animal data have shown excretion of fenfluramine/metabo= lites in milk. A decision must be made whether to discontinue breast-feedin= g or to discontinue/abstain from Fintepla taking into account the benefit o= f breast-feeding for the child and the benefit of therapy for the woman. Dr= ive and use machines.: Fintepla has moderate influence on the ability to dr= ive/ use machines as it may cause somnolence and fatigue. Advise patients n= ot to drive or operate machinery until they have sufficient experience to g= auge whether it adversely affects their abilities.=C2=A0 Adverse effects: Dravet syndrome: Very common (=E2=89=A51/10): Upper respir= atory tract infection, decreased appetite, somnolence, diarrhoea, pyrexia, = fatigue, blood glucose decreased, echocardiogram abnormal (Consisted of tra= ce and mild mitral regurgitation, and trace aortic regurgitation, which are= considered physiologic). Common (=E2=89=A51/100 to <1/10): Bronchitis, abn= ormal behaviour, aggression, agitation, insomnia, mood swings, ataxia, hypo= tonia, lethargy, seizure, status epilepticus, tremor, constipation, salivar= y hypersecretion, weight decreased and blood prolactin increased. Not known= (cannot be estimated from the available data): Pulmonary arterial hyperten= sion. Lennox-Gastaut syndrome: Very common (=E2=89=A51/10): Upper respirato= ry tract infection, decreased appetite, somnolence, diarrhoea, vomiting, fa= tigue. Common (=E2=89=A51/100 to <1/10): Bronchitis, influenza, pneumonia, = aggression, seizure, status epilepticus, lethargy, tremor, constipation, sa= livary hypersecretion, blood prolactin increased, weight decreased, fall.

Important factors that could result in such differences include: change= s in general economic, business and competitive conditions, the inability t= o obtain necessary regulatory approvals or to obtain them on acceptable ter= ms or within expected timing, costs associated with research and developmen= t, changes in the prospects for products in the pipeline or under developme= nt by UCB, effects of future judicial decisions or governmental investigati= ons, safety, quality, data integrity or manufacturing issues; potential or = actual data security and data privacy breaches, or disruptions of our infor= mation technology systems, product liability claims, challenges to patent p= rotection for products or product candidates, competition from other produc= ts including biosimilars, changes in laws or regulations, exchange rate flu= ctuations, changes or uncertainties in tax laws or the administration of su= ch laws, and hiring and retention of its employees. There is no guarantee t= hat new product candidates will be discovered or identified in the pipeline= , will progress to product approval or that new indications for existing pr= oducts will be developed and approved. Movement from concept to commercial = product is uncertain; preclinical results do not guarantee safety and effic= acy of product candidates in humans. So far, the complexity of the human bo= dy cannot be reproduced in computer models, cell culture systems or animal = models. The length of the timing to complete clinical trials and to get reg= ulatory approval for product marketing has varied in the past and UCB expec= ts similar unpredictability going forward. Products or potential products, = which are the subject of partnerships, joint ventures or licensing collabor= ations may be subject to differences disputes between the partners or may p= rove to be not as safe, effective or commercially successful as UCB may hav= e believed at the start of such partnership. UCB=E2=80=99s efforts to acqui= re other products or companies and to integrate the operations of such acqu= ired companies may not be as successful as UCB may have believed at the mom= ent of acquisition.
