5DESCRIPTION
Lotilaner is a member of the isoxazoline family of compounds. Its chemical name is 2-Thiophenecarboxamide, 5-[(5S)-4,5-dihydro-5-(3,4,5-trichlorophenyl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)-3-isoxazolyl]-3-methyl-N-[2-oxo-2-[(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)amino]ethyl]-2-thiophenecarboxamide. The molecular formula is C
Chemical Structure
XDEMVY is a sterile, preserved, multi-dose, slightly yellowish, slightly opalescent, topical ophthalmic solution containing lotilaner, 0.25% as the active ingredient. It is preserved with potassium sorbate and contains the following additional inactive ingredients: edetate disodium, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), polyoxyl 35 castor oil, glycerin, dibasic sodium phosphate, monobasic sodium phosphate, and water for injection.
6CLINICAL STUDIES
The safety and efficacy of XDEMVY for the treatment of Demodex blepharitis was evaluated in a total of 833 patients (415 of which received XDEMVY) in two 6-week, randomized, multicenter, double-masked, vehicle-controlled studies (Saturn-1 and Saturn-2). Patients with Demodex blepharitis were randomized to either XDEMVY or Vehicle at a 1:1 ratio dosed twice daily in each eye.
Efficacy was demonstrated by improvement in lids (reduction of collarettes to no more than 2 collarettes per upper lid) in each study (Saturn-1 and Saturn-2) (see
Figure 1. Saturn-1: Proportion of patients with 2 or less collarettes for the upper eyelid
Figure 1
*Day 43 Primary Endpoint; XDEMVY N=209, Vehicle N=204, p-value <0.01
Figure 2. Saturn-2: Proportion of patients with 2 or less collarettes for the upper eyelid
Figure 2
*Day 43 Primary Endpoint; XDEMVY N=193, Vehicle N=200, p-value <0.01
The endpoints of mite eradication (mite density of 0 mites/lash) and erythema cure (Grade 0) of XDEMVY vs. Vehicle demonstrated statistically significant improvement at Day 43 across both Saturn-1 (Table 1) and Saturn-2 (Table 2) studies.
7HOW SUPPLIED/STORAGE AND HANDLING
XDEMVY is supplied as a sterile ophthalmic solution in a white, opaque, low-density polyethylene (LDPE) multiple-dose bottle with a LDPE dropper tip and tan high-density polyethylene (HDPE) cap.
