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 the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.
The safety data described below reflect exposure to LAMPIT in one prospective, randomized, double-blind trial (Trial 1).
330 pediatric patients with serologic evidence of T.
cruzi infection and without Chagas disease-related cardiac or gastrointestinal symptoms were randomly assigned in a 2:1 fashion to a 60-day (n=219) or a 30-day (n=111) LAMPIT treatment regimen and were followed up for one year after end of treatment.
LAMPIT was administered three times a day with food using a body weight-based dosing.
The median treatment duration was 61 days for subjects in the 60-day regimen.
The majority (86.7%) of the study population was ≥2 to <18 years of age at randomization.
5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS • Potential for Genotoxicity and Carcinogenicity.
( 5.1 ) • Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: May cause fetal harm.
Pregnancy testing is recommended for females of reproductive potential.
Advise females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to a fetus and to use effective contraception.
Advise males to use condoms with female partners of reproductive potential.
Like all medications, Lampit 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.
