6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling: Cardiac Toxicities [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] Acute Renal Failure [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] Tumor Lysis Syndrome [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ] Pulmonary Toxicity [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4) ] Pulmonary Hypertension [see Warnings and Precautions (5.5) ] Dyspnea [see Warnings and Precautions (5.6) ] Hypertension [see Warnings and Precautions (5.7) ] Venous Thrombosis [see Warnings and Precautions (5.8) ] Infusion-Related Reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.9) ] Hemorrhage [see Warnings and Precautions (5.10) ] Thrombocytopenia [see Warnings and Precautions (5.11) ] Hepatic Toxicity and Hepatic Failure [see Warnings and Precautions (5.12) ] Thrombotic Microangiopathy [see Warnings and Precautions (5.13) ] Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome [see Warnings and Precautions (5.14) ] Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy [see Warnings and Precautions (5.15) ] The most common adverse reactions occurring in at least 20% of patients treated with Kyprolis in monotherapy trials: anemia, fatigue, thrombocytopenia, nausea, pyrexia, dyspnea, diarrhea, headache, cough, edema peripheral.
( 6 ) The most common adverse reactions occurring in at least 20% of patients treated with Kyprolis in the combination therapy trials: anemia, diarrhea, hypertension, fatigue, upper respiratory tract infection, thrombocytopenia, pyrexia, cough, dyspnea, and insomnia.

6.1 Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared with rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.
The pooled safety population described in the Warnings and Precautions reflect exposure to Kyprolis in 2,239 patients administered in combination with other drugs in ASPIRE, ENDEAVOR, A.R.R.O.W., CANDOR, IKEMA, EQUULEUS, and PLEIADES.
The most common adverse reactions occurring in at least 20% of patients who received Kyprolis in combination were anemia, diarrhea, hypertension, fatigue, upper respiratory tract infection, thrombocytopenia, pyrexia, cough, dyspnea, and insomnia.
Kyprolis in Combination with Lenalidomide and Dexamethasone The safety of Kyprolis 20/27 mg/m 2 twice weekly in combination with lenalidomide and dexamethasone (KRd) was evaluated in ASPIRE [see Clinical Studies (14.1) ] .
The median number of cycles initiated was 22 cycles for the KRd arm and 14 cycles for the Rd arm.
Deaths due to adverse reactions within 30 days of the last dose of any therapy in the KRd arm occurred in 45/392 (12%) patients compared with 42/389 (11%) patients who died due to adverse reactions within 30 days of the last dose of any Rd therapy.
The most frequent cause of deaths occurring in patients (%) in the two arms (KRd versus Rd) included infection 12 (3%) versus 11 (3%), cardiac 10 (3%) versus 9 (2%), and other adverse reactions 23 (6%) versus 22 (6%).
5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Cardiac Toxicities : Monitor for signs and symptoms of cardiac failure or ischemia.
Withhold Kyprolis and evaluate promptly.
( 5.1 ) Acute Renal Failure : Monitor serum creatinine regularly.
( 5.2 ) Tumor Lysis Syndrome (TLS) : Administer pre-treatment hydration.
(2.1 ) Monitor for TLS, including uric acid levels and treat promptly.
Like all medications, Kyprolis can cause side effects. However, not everyone who takes this medication will experience them. Many side effects are dose-dependent and may improve as your body adjusts to the medication. Others may require dose adjustment or medical attention.
