Tezspire Side Effects

6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling: • Hypersensitivity Reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] Most common adverse reactions (incidence ≥ 3%) are: • Asthma: pharyngitis, arthralgia, and back pain.

( 6.1 ) • Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps: nasopharyngitis, upper respiratory tract infection, epistaxis, pharyngitis, back pain, influenza, injection site reaction and arthralgia.

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.

Adverse Reactions in Adult and Pediatric Patients 12 Years of Age and Older with Asthma The safety of TEZSPIRE in asthma was based on the pooled safety population from PATHWAY and NAVIGATOR, which consists of 665 adult and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older with severe asthma who received at least one dose of TEZSPIRE 210 mg subcutaneously once every 4 weeks.

The two placebo-controlled clinical trials were of 52 weeks duration.

In addition, a similar safety profile was seen in a trial that enrolled 150 adult patients with severe asthma who required treatment with daily oral corticosteroids [see Clinical Studies (14.1) ] .

Adverse reactions that occurred at an incidence greater than or equal to 3% and more common than in the placebo group from the pooled safety population (PATHWAY and NAVIGATOR) are shown in Table

In the trial, the incidence rates (IR) per 100 patient-years (PY) for serious cardiac adverse events in patients treated with TEZSPIRE or placebo were 1.08 and 0.21, respectively, with an incidence rate difference (IRD) of 0.88 (95% CI: 0.24, 1.53).
