aMost patients achieved initial control in 1 or 2 infusions.
bThe efficacy analysis did not meet the prespecified statistically defined superiority criterion. However, the percentages of subjects showing prespecified criteria for coagulopathic effect on either Day 5 and/or Day 8 were 10.3% and 5.3% in the Groups 1 and 2 when compared to 29.7% in Group 3 indicating efficacy of ANAVIP in management of coagulopathic effect in patients with North American Pit Viper envenomation.

ANAVIP CONTROLLED LATE VENOM EFFECTS FOR UP TO 8 DAYS1,3,b

Study design: In a randomized, prospective, blinded, controlled, multicenter study of 121 patients experiencing envenomation in the United States, two ANAVIP regimens were compared with the approved regimen for the Fab Comparator. After achieving initial control, maintenance dosing was administered every 6 hours with either blinded study drug (Group 1 and Group 3) or placebo (Group 2). The efficacy endpoint was the proportion of patients experiencing a coagulopathic effect (defined as absolute platelet levels <150,000/mm3, absolute fibrinogen levels <150mg/dL, or clinical coagulopathy requiring intervention) on Day 5 or Day 8.1,3

bThe efficacy analysis did not meet the prespecified statistically defined superiority criterion. However, the percentages of subjects showing prespecified criteria for coagulopathic effect on either Day 5 and/or Day 8 were 10.3% and 5.3% in the Groups 1 and 2 when compared to 29.7% in Group 3 indicating efficacy of ANAVIP in management of coagulopathic effect in patients with North American Pit Viper envenomation.

ANAVIP is indicated for all North American Pit Viper envenomations1

Cottonmouth

Copperhead

Rattlesnake

 

  • Phase 3 study enrolled 99 Rattlesnake or Unknown Pit Viper bites, 21 Copperhead bites, and 1 Cottonmouth bite2,3
  • ANAVIP controlled local, systemic, and hematologic symptoms for all patients studied2
  • Zero patients in clinical trials required retreatment with ANAVIP for late venom effects (n=83)2-4

 

Swelling at the bite site was the only potential serious adverse event2,f

  • While 9 patients experienced serious adverse events after receiving ANAVIP, all were considered unrelated to ANAVIP3,f
  • The most common adverse reactions observed in more than 2 percent (2%) of patients in the clinical trials for ANAVIP were: pruritus, nausea, rash, arthralgia, peripheral edema, erythema, headache, myalgia, pain in extremity, and vomiting1
  • 1 patient in each study group experienced acute serum reaction. All patients tolerated subsequent doses after resolution3
  • 1 patient in each study group experienced symptoms suggestive of serum sickness. No immune reaction was severe3

Please see full Important Safety Information below and accompanying complete Prescribing Information for ANAVIP.

fOnly 1 serious adverse reaction (swelling in the bitten limb) was considered to be possibly related to ANAVIP, although the investigator subsequently wrote a note to file that attributed the symptoms to the North American Pit Viper envenomation.2

DESIGNED TO CIRCULATE FOR WEEKS1

Antivenoms are not built the same

F(ab′)2 – ANAVIP1,5

F(ab’)2 antivenom shows 2 venom binding sites

Single Fab Antivenom5,6

Fab antivenom shows 1 venom binding site

Study design: Randomized, open-label study in 12 adult subjects aged 18 to 70 to assess quantum serum venom levels.

PK, pharmacokinetic.

 

A difference in half-life has been attributed to molecular mass5,7

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
INDICATION

ANAVIP® [crotalidae immune F(ab′)2 (equine)] is an equine-derived antivenin indicated for the management of adult and pediatric patients with North American Pit Viper envenomation.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
CONTRAINDICATIONS

None.

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

Hypersensitivity
ANAVIP may cause allergic reactions.

  • Patients with known allergies to horse protein are particularly at risk for an anaphylactic reaction. If signs or symptoms of anaphylaxis or hypersensitivity reactions (including urticaria, rash, tightness of the chest, wheezing, hypotension) occur, discontinue immediately and institute appropriate treatment.
  • Monitor patients with follow-up visits for signs and symptoms of delayed allergic reactions or serum sickness (rash, fever, myalgia, arthralgia, pruritus, urticarial rash) and treat appropriately if necessary.

Transmissible Infectious Agents
ANAVIP is made from equine (horse) plasma and may therefore carry a risk of transmitting infectious agents, e.g., viruses.

Reactions to Cresol
Trace amounts of cresol from the manufacturing process are contained in ANAVIP. Localized reactions and generalized myalgias have been reported with the use of cresol as an injectable excipient.

ADVERSE REACTIONS

The most common adverse reactions observed in more than 2 percent (2%) of patients in the clinical trials for ANAVIP were: pruritus, nausea, rash, arthralgia, peripheral edema, erythema, headache, myalgia, pain in extremity, and vomiting.

USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS
  • Pediatric Use: Twenty-four percent (21/86) of patients studied in clinical trials were 16 years of age or younger (6 patients were 2 years of age to 5 years of age, 15 patients ranged from at least 5 years of age to 16 years of age). None of the pediatric patients in the phase 3 study experienced a recurrent coagulopathic effect. All adverse reactions in the pediatric patients were non-serious. The most frequent adverse reactions among pediatric patients were nausea and vomiting, itching, and fever. Thus, the safety and efficacy in the pediatric population was not different from the adults.

Please see complete Prescribing Information.
