5DESCRIPTION
Avalglucosidase alfa-ngpt is a hydrolytic lysosomal glycogen-specific recombinant human α-glucosidase enzyme conjugated with multiple synthetic bis-mannose-6-phosphate (bis-M6P)-tetra-mannose glycans resulting in approximately 15 moles of M6P per mole of enzyme (15 M6P) and is produced in Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO). Avalglucosidase alfa-ngpt has a molecular weight of approximately 124 kDa.
NEXVIAZYME (avalglucosidase alfa-ngpt) for injection is a sterile white to pale-yellow lyophilized powder for intravenous use after reconstitution and dilution. Each single-dose vial contains 100 mg of avalglucosidase alfa-ngpt, glycine (200 mg), L-Histidine (10.7 mg), L-Histidine HCl monohydrate (6.5 mg), mannitol (200 mg), and polysorbate 80 (1 mg). After reconstitution with 10 mL of Sterile Water for Injection, USP, the resultant concentration is 100 mg/10 mL (10 mg/mL) with a pH of approximately 6.2.
