    DURYSTA (bimatoprost)
    1INDICATIONS AND USAGE
    DURYSTA
    2DOSAGE FORMS AND STRENGTHS
    Intracameral implant containing 10 mcg of bimatoprost in a drug delivery system.
    3ADVERSE REACTIONS
    The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in labeling:
    • Implant migration
    • Hypersensitivity
    • Corneal adverse reactions
    • Macular edema 
    • Intraocular inflammation
    • Pigmentation
    • Endophthalmitis
    3.1Clinical TrialsExperience
    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 most common ocular adverse reaction observed in two randomized, active-controlled clinical trials with DURYSTA in patients with OAG or OHT was conjunctival hyperemia, which was reported in 27% of patients. Other common ocular adverse reactions reported in 5-10% of patients were foreign body sensation, eye pain, photophobia, conjunctival hemorrhage, dry eye, eye irritation, intraocular pressure increased, corneal endothelial cell loss, vision blurred, and iritis. Ocular adverse reactions occurring in 1-5% of patients were anterior chamber cell, lacrimation increased, corneal edema, aqueous humor leakage, iris adhesions, ocular discomfort, corneal touch, iris hyperpigmentation, anterior chamber flare, anterior chamber inflammation, and macular edema. The following additional adverse drug reactions occurred in less than 1% of patients: hyphema, iridocyclitis, uveitis, corneal opacity, corneal thickening, product administered at inappropriate site, corneal decompensation, cystoid macular edema, and drug hypersensitivity.
    The most common nonocular adverse reaction was headache, which was observed in 5% of patients.
    3.2PostmarketingExperience
    The following adverse reactions have been identified during postapproval use of DURYSTA. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.
    Eye disorders: endophthalmitis
    4DESCRIPTION
    DURYSTA is a sterile intracameral implant containing 10 mcg of bimatoprost, a prostaglandin analog, in a solid polymer sustained-release drug delivery system (DDS). The drug delivery system consists of poly (D,L-lactide), poly (D,L-lactide-co-glycolide), poly (D,L-lactide) acid end, and polyethylene glycol 3350. DURYSTA is preloaded into a single-use, DDS applicator to facilitate injection of the rod-shaped implant directly into the anterior chamber of the eye. The chemical name for bimatoprost is (
    The chemical name for bimatoprost is (Z)-7-[(1R,2R,3R,5S)-3,5-dihydroxy-2-[(1E,3S)-3-hydroxy-5-phenyl-1-pentenyl]cyclopentyl]-N-ethyl-5-heptenamide, and its molecular weight is 415.57. Its molecular formula is C25H37NO4.
    Bimatoprost is a white to off-white powder, soluble in ethyl alcohol and methyl alcohol and slightly soluble in water. The polymer matrix slowly degrades to lactic acid and glycolic acid.
    5CLINICAL STUDIES
    Efficacy was evaluated in two multicenter, randomized, parallel-group, controlled 20-month (including 8-month extended follow-up) studies of DURYSTA compared to twice daily topical timolol 0.5% drops, in patients with OAG or OHT. DURYSTA demonstrated an IOP reduction of approximately 5-8 mmHg in patients with a mean baseline IOP of 24.5 mmHg (see Figures 3 and 4).

    7PATIENT COUNSELING INFORMATION
    Treatment-related Effects
    Advise patients about the potential risk for complications including, but not limited to, the development of corneal adverse events, intraocular inflammation or endophthalmitis
    Potential for Pigmentation
    Advise patients about the potential for increased brown pigmentation of the iris, which may be permanent
    When to Seek Physician Advice
    Advise patients that if the eye becomes red, sensitive to light, painful, or develops a change in vision, they should seek immediate care from an ophthalmologist
