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.

Acquired HO (Adults and Pediatric Patients Aged 4 Years and Older) The safety of IMCIVREE was evaluated in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial which included a dose titration period of 4 to 8 weeks and a 52-week treatment period, in 142 patients aged 4 years and older with acquired HO (Trial 1) [see Clinical Studies (14.1)] .

The trial duration was 56 to 60 weeks.

Table 5 summarizes the adverse reactions that occurred in 5% or more of the IMCIVREE-treated patients and more frequently than placebo-treated patients in Trial

Other Adverse Reactions in Patients Aged 4 Years and Older with Acquired HO Disturbance in Sexual Arousal Spontaneous penile erections and increased frequency of penile erections were reported in 7% of IMCIVREE-treated patients and 4% of placebo-treated patients.

Acute Adrenal Insufficiency Serious adverse reactions related to acute adrenal insufficiency were reported by 5% of IMCIVREE-treated patients and no placebo-treated patients.

Sodium Imbalance Among patients with acquired HO and concomitant central diabetes insipidus (DI)/arginine vasopressin (AVP) deficiency, hyponatremia was reported in 6% of IMCIVREE-treated patients and 2% of placebo-treated patients, and hypernatremia was reported in 5% of IMCIVREE-treated patients and 4% of placebo-treated patients.

Bardet-Biedl Syndrome (Adults and Pediatric Patients Aged 6 Years and Older) The safety of IMCIVREE was evaluated in a clinical trial, which included a 14‑week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled period followed by a 52-week open-label treatment period, in 44 patients aged 6 years and older with obesity and a clinical diagnosis of BBS (Trial 2) [see Clinical Studies (14.2)] .
