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 to rates in clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.
Adverse Reactions for Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis The safety of JASCAYD was based on a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial (FIBRONEER-IPF), which included 1,177 adult patients with IPF who were randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive JASCAYD 9 mg twice daily, JASCAYD 18 mg twice daily, or matching placebo.
Patients received JASCAYD or placebo with or without background antifibrotic treatment (nintedanib or pirfenidone) for at least 52 weeks [see Clinical Studies (14.1) ] .
The median duration of exposure was 14 months in each treatment arm.
Discontinuation due to adverse reactions occurred more frequently in patients treated with JASCAYD (with or without background antifibrotic treatment) 18 mg (15%) and 9 mg (12%) compared to placebo (11%).
The most frequent adverse reaction leading to discontinuation of JASCAYD 18 mg and 9 mg was diarrhea (6% and 2%, respectively).
Table 1 lists the most common adverse reactions from the studied population with an incidence of greater than or equal to 5% in JASCAYD-treated patients and more common than the placebo group.
Like all medications, Jascayd 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.
