SELZENTRY Film-coated tablet / Oral solution Ref.[50720] Active ingredients: Maraviroc

2.1 Testing prior to Initiation of SELZENTRY

Prior to initiation of SELZENTRY for treatment of HIV-1 infection, test all patients for CCR5 tropism using a highly sensitive tropism assay. SELZENTRY is recommended for patients with only CCR5-tropic HIV-1 infection. Outgrowth of pre-existing low-level CXCR4- or dual/mixed-tropic HIV-1 not detected by tropism testing at screening has been associated with virologic failure on SELZENTRY [see Microbiology (12.4), Clinical Studies (14.1)].

Monitor patients for alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and bilirubin prior to initiation of SELZENTRY and at other time points during treatment as clinically indicated [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)].

2.2 General Dosing Recommendations

• SELZENTRY tablets and oral solution are taken twice daily by mouth and may be taken with or without food.
• SELZENTRY must be given in combination with other antiretroviral medications.
• The recommended dosage of SELZENTRY differs based on concomitant medications due to drug interactions.

2.3 Recommended Dosage in Adult Patients with Normal Renal Function

Table 1 displays oral dosage of SELZENTRY based on different concomitant medications [see Drug Interactions (7.1)].

Table 1. Recommended Dosage in Adults:

^a Potent CYP3A inhibitors (with or without a potent CYP3A inducer) including: clarithromycin, cobicistat, elvitegravir/ritonavir, itraconazole, ketoconazole, nefazodone, protease inhibitors (except tipranavir/ritonavir), telithromycin.
^b Noninteracting concomitant medications include all medications that are not potent CYP3A inhibitors or inducers such as: dolutegravir, enfuvirtide, nevirapine, all nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs), raltegravir, and tipranavir/ritonavir.
^c Potent and moderate CYP3A inducers (without a potent CYP3A inhibitor) including: carbamazepine, efavirenz, etravirine, phenobarbital, phenytoin, and rifampin.

2.4 Recommended Dosage in Pediatric Patients with Normal Renal Function

The recommended dosage of SELZENTRY should be based on body weight (kg) and should not exceed the recommended adult dose. The recommended dosage also differs based on concomitant medications due to drug interactions (Table 2 and Table 3) [see Drug Interactions (7.1), Use in Specific Populations (8.4)].

Before prescribing SELZENTRY tablets, assess children for the ability to swallow tablets. If a child is unable to reliably swallow SELZENTRY tablets, the oral solution formulation should be prescribed.

The recommended oral dosage of SELZENTRY tablets in pediatric patients aged 2 years and older weighing at least 10 kg is presented in Table 2.

Table 2. Recommended Dosage in Pediatric Patients Aged 2 Years and Older Weighing at Least 10 kg (Tablets):

^a Potent CYP3A inhibitors (with or without a CYP3A inducer) including: clarithromycin, cobicistat, elvitegravir/ritonavir, itraconazole, ketoconazole, nefazodone, protease inhibitors (except tipranavir/ritonavir), telithromycin.
^b Noninteracting concomitant medications including all medications that are not potent CYP3A inhibitors or inducers such as: dolutegravir, enfuvirtide, nevirapine, all NRTIs, raltegravir, and tipranavir/ritonavir.
^c Potent and moderate CYP3A inducers (without a potent CYP3A inhibitor) including: carbamazepine, efavirenz, etravirine, phenobarbital, phenytoin, and rifampin.
^d Insufficient data are available to recommend use.

The recommended oral dosage of SELZENTRY oral solution in pediatric patients weighing at least 2 kg is presented in Table 3.

Table 3. Recommended Dosage in Pediatric Patients Weighing at Least 2 kg (Oral Solution):

^a Potent CYP3A inhibitors (with or without a CYP3A inducer) including: clarithromycin, cobicistat, elvitegravir/ritonavir, itraconazole, ketoconazole, nefazodone, protease inhibitors (except tipranavir/ritonavir), telithromycin.
^b Insufficient data are available to recommend use.
^c Noninteracting concomitant medications including all medications that are not potent CYP3A inhibitors or inducers such as: dolutegravir, enfuvirtide, nevirapine, all NRTIs, raltegravir, and tipranavir/ritonavir.
^d Potent and moderate CYP3A inducers (without a potent CYP3A inhibitor) including: carbamazepine, efavirenz, etravirine, phenobarbital, phenytoin, and rifampin.

Administer the oral solution using the included press-in bottle adapter and the appropriate oral dosing syringe: for doses of 2.5 mL or less, use the 3-mL syringe; for doses greater than 2.5 mL, use the 10-mL syringe.

Care should be taken when measuring neonate doses due to the small volumes of oral solution required.

2.5 Recommended Dosage in Patients with Renal Impairment

Adult Patients

Table 4 provides dosing recommendations for patients based on renal function and concomitant medications.

Table 4. Recommended Dosage in Adults Based on Renal Function:

CrCl = Creatinine clearance.
^a Potent CYP3A inhibitors (with or without a CYP3A inducer) including: clarithromycin, cobicistat, elvitegravir/ritonavir, itraconazole, ketoconazole, nefazodone, protease inhibitors (except tipranavir/ritonavir), telithromycin.
^b Noninteracting concomitant medications include all medications that are not potent CYP3A inhibitors or inducers such as: dolutegravir, enfuvirtide, nevirapine, all NRTIs, raltegravir, and tipranavir/ritonavir.
^c Dosage of SELZENTRY should be reduced to 150 mg twice daily if there are any symptoms of postural hypotension [see Contraindications (4), Warnings and Precautions (5.3)].
^d Potent and moderate CYP3A inducers (without a potent CYP3A inhibitor) including: carbamazepine, efavirenz, etravirine, phenobarbital, phenytoin, and rifampin.

Pediatric Patients

There are no data to recommend specific doses of SELZENTRY in pediatric patients with mild or moderate renal impairment [see Use in Specific Populations (8.6)]. Additionally, SELZENTRY is contraindicated for pediatric patients with severe renal impairment or end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on regular hemodialysis who are receiving potent CYP3A inhibitors or inducers [see Contraindications (4)].

The highest single dose administered in clinical trials was 1,200 mg. The dose-limiting adverse event was postural hypotension, which was observed at 600 mg. While the recommended dose for SELZENTRY in patients receiving a CYP3A inducer without a CYP3A inhibitor is 600 mg twice daily, this dose is appropriate due to enhanced metabolism.

Prolongation of the QT interval was seen in dogs and monkeys at plasma concentrations 6 and 12 times, respectively, those expected in humans at the intended exposure of 300-mg equivalents twice daily. However, no significant QT prolongation was seen in the trials in treatment-experienced subjects with HIV using the recommended doses of maraviroc, or in a specific pharmacokinetic trial to evaluate the potential of maraviroc to prolong the QT interval [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.2)].

There is no specific antidote for overdose with maraviroc. Treatment of overdose should consist of general supportive measures including keeping the patient in a supine position, careful assessment of patient vital signs, blood pressure, and electrocardiogram.

Administration of activated charcoal may also be used to aid in removal of unabsorbed drug. Hemodialysis had a minimal effect on maraviroc clearance and exposure in a trial in subjects with ESRD [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].

SELZENTRY film‑coated tablets should be stored at 20°C to 25°C (68°F to 77°F); excursions permitted between 15°C and 30°C (59°F and 86°F) [see USP Controlled Room Temperature].
