FDA批准第一个对罕见遗传形式的佝偻病,x-连接的低磷血症
2018年4月17日美国食品和药品监管局今天批准Crysvita(burosumab),第一被批准药物治疗成年和儿童年龄1岁和以上有x-连接的低磷血症(XLH),a一种罕见,遗传形式的佝偻病. XLH致在血中磷的低水平。它导致被损害的骨生长和发育在儿童和青少年和患者终生至始至终骨矿物质问题。
FDA的药品评价和研究中心中药品评价III办公室主任Julie Beitz,M.D说“XLH 不同于其他形式的佝偻病在于维生素D治疗是无效,” “这是第一个 FDA-批准的药物为XLH治疗的药物和一个真正突破对那些有这种严重疾病活着的患者。”
XLH是一种严重的疾病影响大约3,000儿童和12,000成年在美国。大多数有XLH 儿童有经受弓样弯曲或弯腿,身材矮小,骨痛和严重牙痛。有些成年XLH经受持续不适或并发症,例如关节痛,运动受损,牙脓肿和听力丧失。
在四项临床试验中研究Crysvita的安全性和疗效。在安慰剂-对照试验,94 %成年接受 Crysvita一月一次实现正常磷水平,与之比较接受安慰剂为8%。在儿童中,94至100 %用Crysvita每两周治疗患者实现正常磷水平。在儿童和成年两者,X-线发现伴随XLH用Crysvita治疗改善。结果与自然史队列的比较提供对Crysvita有效性的支持。
在成年中服用Crysvita最常见不良反应为背痛,头痛,静坐不适综合证,减低维生素D,眩晕和便秘。在儿童中最常见不良反应为头痛,注射部位反应,呕吐,减低的维生素D和发热。
Crysvita被授予突破性治疗指定,在它下FDA提供强指导对公司有效药物开发,和加速它的药物审评是意向治疗严重条件其中临床证据显示药物可能一种实质上改善超过其他可得到的治疗。Crysvita还接受孤儿药物指定,它提供鼓励帮助和鼓励对罕见疾病药物的开发。
承办单位正在在一个程序意向鼓励新药和生物制品为预防和治疗罕见儿童疾病下接受一个罕见儿童疾病优先审评证件。一个证件可被履行在以后日期对一个不同产品的上市申请接受优先审评一个随后上市申请 优先审评。这是自程序开始FDA发出的第14个儿童疾病优先审评证件。
FDA 授权Crysvita的批准给予Ultragenyx Pharmaceutical Inc有限公司。
Crysvita是阻断成纤维细胞生长因子23(FGF23)的一种抗体,FGF23是一种可导致磷酸盐随尿液排出并抑制肾脏活性维生素D产生的激素。Crysvita旨在结合XLH患者过量的FGF23,使其磷水平正常化,从而改善骨矿化,以及儿童的软骨病和成人的骨折。Crysvita曾获得FDA颁发的突破性疗法认定以及孤儿药资格。

4. CLINICAL PARTICULARS 4.1 Therapeutic indications
CRYSVITA is indicated for the treatment of X-linked hypophosphataemia with radiographic evidence of bone disease in children 1 year of age and older and adolescents with growing skeletons.
4.2 Posology and method of administration
Treatment should be initiated by a physician experienced in the management of patients with metabolic bone diseases.
2
Posology
Oral phosphate and vitamin D analogues should be discontinued 1 week prior to initiation of treatment. At initiation, fasting serum phosphate concentration should be below the reference range for age (see section 4.3).
The recommended starting dose is 0.4 mg/kg of body weight and the normal maintenance dose is 0.8 mg/kg burosumab given every two weeks. The maximum dose is 90 mg. All doses should be rounded to the nearest 10 mg.
After initiation of treatment with burosumab, fasting serum phosphate should be measured every
2 weeks for the first month of treatment, every 4 weeks for the following 2 months and thereafter as appropriate. Fasting serum phosphate should also be measured 4 weeks after any dose adjustment. If fasting serum phosphate is within the reference range for age, the same dose should be maintained.
To decrease the risk for ectopic mineralisation, it is recommended that fasting serum phosphate is targeted in the lower end of the normal reference range for age (see section 4.4).
Dose increase
If fasting serum phosphate is below the reference range for age, the dose may be increased stepwise by 0.4 mg/kg up to a maximum dose of 2.0 mg/kg (maximum dose of 90 mg). Fasting serum phosphate should be measured 4 weeks after dose adjustment. Burosumab should not be adjusted more frequently than every 4 weeks.
Dose decrease
If fasting serum phosphate is above the reference range for age, the next dose should be withheld and the fasting serum phosphate reassessed within 4 weeks. The patient must have fasting serum phosphate below the reference range for age to restart burosumab at approximately half of the previous dose.
Missed dose
If a patient misses a dose, burosumab should be resumed as soon as possible at previously prescribed dose.
Special populations
Renal impairment
Burosumab has not been studied in patients with renal impairment. Burosumab must not be given to patients with severe or end stage renal disease (see section 4.3).
Paediatric population
The safety and efficacy of burosumab in children aged less than one year have not been established.
No data are available.
Method of administration
For subcutaneous use.
Burosumab should be injected in the arm, abdomen, buttock or thigh. The maximum volume of medicinal product per injection site is 1.5 ml. If more than 1.5 ml is required on a given dosing day, the total volume of medicinal product should be split and should be administered at two different injection sites. Injections sites should be rotated and carefully monitored for signs of potential reactions (see section 4.4).
For handling of burosumab before administration, see section 6.6.
3
4.3 Contraindications
Hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients listed in section 6.1.
Concurrent administration with oral phosphate, vitamin D analogues (see section 4.5).
Fasting serum phosphate above the normal range for age due to the risk of hyperphosphatemia (see section 4.4).
Patients with severe renal impairment or end stage renal disease. 4.4 Special warnings and precautions for use Ectopic mineralisation
Ectopic mineralisation, as manifested by nephrocalcinosis, has been observed in patients with XLH treated with oral phosphorous and vitamin D analogues; these medicinal products should be stopped at least 1 week prior to initiating burosumab treatment (see section 4.2).
Monitoring for signs and symptoms of nephrocalcinosis, e.g. by renal ultrasonography, is recommended at the start of treatment and every 6 months for the first 12 months of treatment, and annually thereafter. Monitoring of plasma alkaline phosphatases, Calcium, PTH and creatinine is recommended every 6 months (every 3 months for children 1- 2 years) or as indicated. Monitoring of urine calcium and phosphate is suggested every 3 months.
Hyperphosphataemia
Patient’s fasting serum phosphate level should be monitored due to the risk of hyperphosphatemia. To decrease the risk for ectopic mineralisation, it is recommended that fasting serum phosphate is targeted in the lower end of the normal reference range for age. Dose interruption and/or dose reduction may be required (see section 4.2). Periodic measurement of post prandial serum phosphate is advised.
Serum parathyroid hormone
Increases in serum parathyroid hormone have been observed in some XLH patients during treatment with burosumab. Periodic measurement of serum parathyroid hormone is advised.
Injection site reactions
Administration of burosumab may result in local injection site reactions. Administration should be interrupted in any patient experiencing severe injection site reactions (see section 4.8) and appropriate medical therapy administered.
Hypersensitivity
Burosumab must be discontinued if serious hypersensitivity reactions occur and appropriate medical treatment should be initiated.
Excipient with known effect
This medicine contains 45.91 mg of sorbitol in each vial which is equivalent to 45.91 mg/ml.
4.5 Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction
Concurrent administration of burosumab with oral phosphate and vitamin D analogues is contraindicated as it may cause an increased risk of hyperphosphatemia and hypercalcaemia (see section 4.3).
4
Caution should be exercised when combining burosumab with calcimimetic medicinal products (i.e. agents that mimic the effect of calcium on tissues by activating the calcium receptor). Co-administration of these medicinal products has not been studied in clinical trials and could potentially exacerbate hypocalcaemia.
4.6 Fertility, pregnancy and lactation
Pregnancy
There are no or limited amount of data from the use of burosumab in pregnant women.
Studies in animals have shown reproductive toxicity (see section 5.3).
CRYSVITA is not recommended during pregnancy and in women of childbearing potential not using contraception.
Breast-feeding
It is unknown whether burosumab/metabolites are excreted in human milk.
A risk to newborns/infants cannot be excluded.
A decision must be made whether to discontinue breast-feeding or to discontinue/abstain from CRYSVITA therapy taking into account the benefit of breast feeding for the child and the benefit of therapy for the woman.
Fertility
Studies in animals have shown effects on male reproductive organs (see section 5.3). There are no clinical data available on the effect of burosumab on human fertility. No specific fertility studies in animals with burosumab were conducted.
4.7 Effects on ability to drive and use machines
Burosumab may have a minor influence on the ability to drive and use machines. Dizziness may occur following administration of burosumab.
4.8 Undesirable effects
Summary of the safety profile
The most common adverse drug reaction (ADR) reported in paediatric patients up to 64 weeks was injection site reactions (57%), headache (54%), pain in extremity (42%), vitamin D decreased (28%), rash (23%), toothache (19%), tooth abscess (14%), myalgia (14%), and dizziness (11%) (See section 4.4 and ‘Description of selected adverse reactions’ below).

Description of selected adverse reactions
Injection site reactions
Local reactions (e.g. injection site urticaria, erythema, rash, swelling, bruising, pain, pruritus, and haematoma) have occurred at the site of injection. In the paediatric studies, approximately 57% of the patients had an injection site reaction. The injection site reactions were generally mild in severity, occurred within 1 day of medicinal product administration, lasted approximately 1 to 3 days, required no treatment, and resolved in almost all instances.
Skin reactions
In paediatric patients, the most frequent potential hypersensitivity events were rash (22%), injection site rash (6%), and urticaria (4%). The events were mild or moderate in severity.
Immunogenicity
Anti -drug antibodies (ADA) have been detected in a small percentage of patients receiving burosumab who had also tested positive for ADA prior to dosing; no adverse events or loss of efficacy was associated with these findings.
Reporting of suspected adverse reactions
Reporting suspected adverse reactions after authorisation of the medicinal product is important. It allows continued monitoring of the benefit/risk balance of the medicinal product. Healthcare professionals are asked to report any suspected adverse reactions via the national reporting system listed in Appendix V.
4.9 Overdose
There is no experience with overdose of burosumab. Burosumab has been administered in paediatric clinical trials without dose limiting toxicity using doses up to 2.0 mg/kg body weight with a maximal dose of 90 mg every two weeks. In adult clinical trials no dose limiting toxicity has been observed using doses up to 1.0 mg/kg or a maximal total dose of 128 mg every 4 weeks.
Management
In case of overdose, it is recommended to stop burosumab and to monitor biochemical response.

5. PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES 5.1 Pharmacodynamic properties
Pharmacotherapeutic group: Drugs for the treatment of bone diseases, other drugs affecting bone
structure and mineralisation, ATC code: M05BX05.
Mechanism of action
Burosumab is a recombinant human monoclonal antibody (IgG1) that binds to and inhibits the activity of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). By inhibiting FGF23, burosumab increases tubular reabsorption of phosphate from the kidney and increases serum concentration of 1, 25 dihydroxy-Vitamin D.
Clinical efficacy and safety
Study UX023-CL201
In paediatric Study UX023-CL201, 52 paediatric patients aged 5 to 12 years (mean 8.5 years; SD 1.87) with XLH were treated for 64 weeks. Nearly all patients had radiographic evidence of rickets at baseline and had received prior oral phosphate and vitamin D analogues for a mean (SD) duration of 7 (2.4) years. This conventional therapy was discontinued 2-4 weeks prior to burosumab initiation. The burosumab dose was adjusted to target a fasting serum phosphorous concentration of 1.13 to
1.62 mmol/L. Twenty six of 52 patients received burosumab every 4 weeks (Q4W). Twenty six of
52 patients received burosumab every two weeks (Q2W) at an average dose (min, max) of 0.73 (0.3, 1.5), 0.98 (0.4, 2.0) and 1.04 (0.4, 2.0) mg/kg at weeks 16, 40 and 60 respectively, and up to a maximum dose of 2.0 mg/kg.
Burosumab increased serum phosphate concentration and increased TmP/GFR). Changes in serum phosphate concentration over time are shown in Figure 1. In the group that received burosumab every 2 weeks, mean (SD) serum phosphate concentration increased from 0.77 (0.13) mmol/L at baseline, to 1.07 (0.13) mmol/L at Week 40 and was maintained to Week 64 at 1.08 (0.14) mmol/L.

Serum alkaline phosphatase activity
Mean (SD) serum total alkaline phosphatase activity was 459 (105) U/L at baseline and decreased to 369 (76) U/L at Week 64 (-19.6%, p < 0.0001).
Bone-derived serum alkaline phosphatase content was 165 (52) μg/L [mean (SD)] at Baseline and 115 (31) μg/L at Week 64 (mean change: -28.5%).
Rickets Severity Score (RSS)
The severity of paediatric rickets in Study UX023-CL201 was measured using the RSS, a radiographic scoring method developed originally to assess the severity of nutritional rickets in the wrists and knees based on the degree of metaphyseal fraying, concavity, and the proportion of the growth plate affected. In Study UX023 -CL201, the RSS was scored using a predefined scale looking at specific abnormalities in the wrists and knees. Results are summarised in table 2. The negative change in the Rickets Severity Score reflects resolution of the x-ray appearance of rickets.
Radiographic Global Impression of Change (RGI-C)
As a complement to the RSS system to assess the severity of paediatric rickets in Study UX023CL201, the RGI-C is a relative rating scale that compares a patient’s rickets before and after treatment utilising a 7-point ordinal scale to evaluate change in the same abnormalities rated in the RSS. Scores range from -3 (indicating severe worsening of rickets) to +3 (indicating complete healing of rickets). Results are summarised in Table 2. The positive change in the RGI-C score reflects resolution of the x-ray appearance of rickets.

Study UX023-CL205
In paediatric Study UX023-CL205, burosumab was evaluated in 13 XLH patients, aged 1 to
4 years (mean 2.9 years; SD 1.1) for 40 weeks. All patients had radiographic evidence of rickets at baseline and twelve patients had received oral phosphate and vitamin D analogues for a mean (SD) duration of 16.7 (14.4) months. This conventional therapy was discontinued 2-6 weeks prior burosumab initiation. Patients received burosumab at a dose of 0.8 mg/kg every two weeks.
In Study UX023-CL205, mean (SD) fasting serum phosphate concentration increased from 0.81 (0.092) mmol/L at baseline to 1.12 (0.158) mmol/L at Week 40.

Serum alkaline phosphatase activity
Mean (SD) serum total alkaline phosphatase activity was 549 (193.8) U/L at baseline and decreased to 335 (87.6) U/L at Week 40 (mean change: -36.3%).
Rickets Severity Score (RSS)
After 40 weeks of treatment with burosumab, mean total RSS improved from 2.92 (1.367) at baseline to 1.19 (0.522), corresponding to a change from baseline in LS mean (SE) change of -1.73 (0.132) (p<0.0001).
Radiographic Global Impression of Change (RGI-C)
After 40 weeks of treatment with burosumab, the LS mean (SE) RGI-C Global score was +2.33 (0.08) in all 13 patients (p < 0.0001) demonstrating healing of rickets. All 13 patients were considered RGI-C responders as defined by RGI-C global score ≥ +2.0.

5.2 Pharmacokinetic properties
Absorption
Burosumab absorption from subcutaneous injection sites to blood circulation is nearly complete. Following subcutaneous administration, the time to reach maximum serum concentrations (Tmax) of burosumab is approximately 5-10 days. The peak serum concentration (Cmax) and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of serum burosumab is dose proportional over the dose range of 0.1-2.0 mg/kg.
Distribution
In XLH patients, the observed volume of distribution of burosumab approximates the volume of plasma, suggesting limited extravascular distribution.
Biotransformation
Burosumab is composed solely of amino acids and carbohydrates as a native immunoglobulin and is unlikely to be eliminated via hepatic metabolic mechanisms. Its metabolism and elimination are expected to follow the immunoglobulin clearance pathways, resulting in degradation to small peptides and individual amino acids.
Elimination
Due to its molecular size, burosumab is not expected to be directly excreted. The clearance of burosumab is dependent on body weight and estimated to be 0.290 L/day and 0.136 L/day in a typical adult (70 kg) and paediatric (30 kg) XLH patient, respectively, with corresponding disposition half-life (t1/2) in the serum of approximately 19 days.
Linearity/non-linearity
Burosumab displays time-invariant pharmacokinetics that is linear to dose over the subcutaneous dose range of 0.1 to 2.0 mg/kg.
9
Pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic relationship(s)
With the subcutaneous route of administration, a direct PK-PD relationship between serum burosumab concentrations and increases in serum phosphate concentration is observed and well described by an Emax/EC50 model. Serum burosumab and phosphate concentrations, as well as TmP/GFR, increased and decreased in parallel and reached maximum levels at approximately the same time point after each dose, supporting a direct PK-PD relationship. The AUC for the change from baseline in serum phosphate, TmP/GFR and 1,25(OH)2D increased linearly with increasing burosumab AUC.
Paediatric PK/PD
No significant difference has been observed in paediatric patient pharmacokinetics or pharmacodynamics as compared with PK/PD in the adult population. Burosumab clearance and volume of distribution are body weight dependent.
5.3 Preclinical safety data
Adverse reactions in non-clinical studies with normal animals were observed at exposures which resulted in serum phosphate concentration greater than normal limits. These effects were consistent with an exaggerated response to the inhibition of normal FGF23 levels resulting in a supraphysiologic increase in serum phosphate beyond the upper limit of normal.
Studies in rabbits and adult and juvenile cynomolgus monkeys demonstrated dose-dependent elevations of serum phosphate and 1,25 (OH)2D confirming the pharmacologic actions of burosumab in these species. Ectopic mineralisation of multiple tissues and organs (e.g. kidney, heart, lung, and aorta), and associated secondary consequences (e.g. nephrocalcinosis) in some cases, due to hyperphosphataemia, was observed in normal animals at doses of burosumab that resulted in serum phosphate concentrations in animals greater than approximately 2.58 mmol/L. In a murine model of XLH, a significant reduction in the incidence of ectopic mineralisation was observed at equivalent levels of serum phosphate, suggesting that the risk of mineralisation is less in the presence of excess FGF23.
Bone effects seen in adult and juvenile monkeys included changes in bone metabolism markers, increases in thickness and density of cortical bone, increased density of total bone and thickening of long bone. These changes were a consequence of higher than normal serum phosphate levels, which accelerated bone turnover and also led to periosteal hyperostosis and a decrease in bone strength in adult animals, but not in juvenile animals at the doses tested. Burosumab did not promote abnormal bone development, as no changes in femur length or bone strength were noted in juvenile animals. Bone changes were consistent with the pharmacology of burosumab and the role of phosphate in bone mineralization, metabolism and turnover.
In repeat-dose toxicology studies of up to 40 weeks duration in cynomolgus monkeys, mineralisation of the rete testis/seminiferous tubules was observed in male monkeys; however, no changes were observed in semen analysis. No adverse effects on female reproductive organs were observed in these studies.
In the reproductive and developmental toxicology study performed in pregnant cynomolgus monkeys, moderate mineralisation of the placenta was seen in pregnant animals given 30 mg/kg of burosumab and occurred in animals with peak serum phosphate concentration greater than approximately
2.58 mmol/L. Shortening of the gestation period and associated increased incidence of premature births were observed in pregnant monkeys at doses of ≥ 0.3 mg/kg which corresponded to burosumab exposures that are ≥0.875- to 1.39-fold anticipated clinical levels. Burosumab was detected in serum from fetuses indicating that burosumab was transported across the placenta to the fetus. There was no evidence of teratogenic effects. Ectopic mineralisation was not observed in foetuses or offspring and burosumab did not affect pre- and postnatal growth including survivability of the offspring.
10
In preclinical studies, ectopic mineralisation has been observed in normal animals, most frequently in the kidney, given burosumab at doses that resulted in serum phosphate concentrations greater than
2.58 mmol/L (see section 5.3). Neither new or clinically meaningful worsening of nephrocalcinosis nor ectopic mineralisation have been observed in clinical trials of patients with XLH treated with burosumab to achieve normal serum phosphate levels.

4. Possible side effects
5. How to store CRYSVITA
6. Contents of the pack and other information
1. What CRYSVITA is and what it is used for
What CRYSVITA is
CRYSVITA contains the active substance burosumab. This is a type of medicine called a human monoclonal antibody.
What is CRYSVITA used for
CRYSVITA is used to treat X-linked hypophosphataemia (XLH). It is used in children of 1 year and older, and adolescents who are still growing.
What is X-Linked Hypophosphataemia (XLH) X-Linked Hypophosphataemia (XLH) is a genetic disease.
• People with XLH have higher levels of a hormone called fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23).
• FGF23 lowers the amount of phosphate in the blood.
• The low level of phosphate may lead to bones that cannot grow and harden properly.
How CRYSVITA works
CRYSVITA attaches to FGF23 in the blood which stops FGF23 from working and increases the phosphate levels in the blood so that normal levels of phosphate can be achieved.
2. What you need to know before you use CRYSVITA
Do not use CRYSVITA if:
• you are allergic to burosumab or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6)
• you are taking any phosphate or vitamin D supplements
• you already have a high level of phosphate in your blood (“hyper-phosphataemia”)
28
• you have severe kidney disease or kidney failure.
Allergic reactions
Stop taking CRYSVITA and tell your doctor straight away if you have any of the following side effects, as they could be signs of an allergic reaction:
• rash and itching all over the body
• severe swelling of eyelids, mouth or lips (angio-oedema)
• shortness of breath
• rapid heartbeat
• sweating.
Do not take CRYSVITA if any of the above apply to you. If you are not sure, talk to your doctor before using CRYSVITA.
Warnings and precautions
Skin reactions
You may get skin reactions where the injection is given, see section 4 for more information. If these reactions are severe, tell your doctor.
Tests and checks
Your doctor will check the phosphate level in your blood and urine and may also do a renal ultrasound during your treatment in order to reduce the risk of hyperphosphataemia (too much phosphate in the blood) and ectopic mineralisation (a build up of calcium in tissues such as the kidneys). Your serum parathyroid hormone level will also be checked from time to time.
Children under 1 year
Crysvita should not be given to children under 1 year of age because the safety and effects of the medicine have not been studied in this age group.
Other medicines and CRYSVITA
Tell your doctor if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicines.
Do not take CRYSVITA and tell your doctor if you are taking:
• phosphates or vitamin D supplements.
Talk to your doctor before taking CRYSVITA if you are taking:
• medicines that work in the same way as calcium in the body (“calcimimetics”). If used together they may lower blood calcium.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
If you are pregnant or breast-feeding, think you might be pregnant or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking this medicine. This is because it is not known if CRYSVITA will affect the baby.
CRYSVITA is not recommended in pregnancy.
If you could get pregnant, you must use an effective method of contraception (birth control) while using CRYSVITA. You should discuss this with your doctor.
It is not known if CRYSVITA passes into breast milk, and a risk to newborns or infants cannot be ruled out. You should discuss this with your doctor.
29
Driving, riding a bike and using machines
It is possible that CRYSVITA could cause dizziness and affect you being able to ride a bike, use any tools or machines or to drive. If you think you are affected, do not ride a bike, use any tools or machines or drive, and tell your doctor.
CRYSVITA contains sorbitol
This medicine contains 45.91 mg of sorbitol in each vial which is equivalent to 45.91 mg/ml.
3. How to use CRYSVITA
CRYSVITA should be given by injection under the skin in the arm, abdomen, buttock or thigh by your doctor or a trained healthcare provider.
How much CRYSVITA you will be given
The dose is based on your body weight. Your doctor will work out the right dose for you.
CRYSVITA will be injected every two weeks.
Your doctor will perform checks to make sure that you are getting the right dose, and may change your dose if needed.
The maximum dose you will be given is 90 mg.
If you have been given more CRYSVITA than you should
If you think that you have been given too much CRYSVITA, tell your doctor straight away. If you miss a dose of CRYSVITA
If a dose is missed, talk to your doctor straight away. The missed dose should be given as soon as possible and your doctor will re-arrange future doses accordingly.
If you have any further questions on the use of this medicine, ask your doctor.
4. Possible side effects
Like all medicines, this medicine can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them. Side effects (very common – may affect more than 1 in 10 children)
• Tooth abscess (infection)
• Headache
• Dizziness
• Toothache
• Rash
• Pain in muscles (myalgia) and hands and feet
• Low vitamin D in your blood
• Reactions where the injection was given, which may include:
o redness or rash o pain or itching
o swelling
o bleeding or bruising
These injection site reactions are usually mild and occur within a day after the injection and usually get better in around 1 to 3 days.
30
Reporting of side effects
If you get any side effects, talk to your doctor or nurse. This includes any possible side effects not listed in this leaflet. You can also report side effects directly via the national reporting system listed in Appendix V. By reporting side effects, you can help provide more information on the safety of this medicine.
