severe primary igf-1 deficiency or - growth hormone (gh) gene deletion who have developed neutralizing antibodies to gh. severe primary igf-1 deficiency (igfd) is defined by: - height standard deviation score ≤ –3.0 and - basal igf-1 standard deviation score ≤ –3.0 and - normal or elevated growth hormone (gh). limitations of use: increlex is not a substitute to gh for approved gh indications. increlex is not indicated for use in patients with secondary forms of igf-1 deficiency, such as gh deficiency, malnutrition, hypothyroidism, or chronic treatment with pharmacologic doses of anti-inflammatory corticosteroids. - known hypersensitivity increlex should not be used by patients who are allergic to mecasermin (rhigf-1) or any of the inactive ingredients in increlex, or who have experienced a severe hypersensitivity to increlex [see warnings and precautions (5.2) and adverse reactions (6.3)]. - closed epiphyses increlex should not be used for growth promotion in patients with closed epiphyses. - malignant neoplasia increlex is contraindicated in pediatric patients with malignant neoplasia or a history of malignancy [see warnings and precautions (5.7) and adverse reactions (6.3)]. risk summary there are no available data on increlex use in pregnant women. exposure to increlex during pregnancy is unlikely because the drug is not indicated for use after epiphyseal closure. in animal reproduction studies, there were no observed embryo-fetal development abnormalities with intravenous administration of increlex to pregnant rats and rabbits during fetal organogenesis given at exposures up to 11 and 3 times the maximum recommended human dose (mrhd) of 0.24 mg/kg/day based on body surface area (bsa), respectively (see data) . the estimated background risk of birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. in the u.s. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2-4% and 15-20%, respectively. data animal data studies to assess embryo-fetal toxicity evaluated the effects of increlex during organogenesis in sprague dawley rats given 1, 4, and 16 mg/kg/day and in new zealand white rabbits given 0.125, 0.5, and 2 mg/kg/day, administered intravenously. there were no observed embryo-fetal developmental abnormalities in rats given up to 16 mg/kg/day (11 times the mrhd based on bsa comparison). in the rabbit study, the noael for fetal toxicity was 0.5 mg/kg/day (approximately equivalent to the mrhd based on bsa) due to an increase in fetal death at 2 mg/kg. increlex displayed no teratogenicity or maternal toxicity in rabbits given up to 2 mg/kg (3 times the mrhd based on bsa). risk summary there is no information available on the presence of mecasermin in human or animal milk, the effects of the drug on the breastfed infant, or the effects of the drug on milk production. the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother's clinical need for increlex and any potential adverse effects on the breast-fed child from increlex or from the underlying maternal condition. toxicity (gasping syndrome) with benzyl alcohol serious adverse reactions including fatal reactions and the "gasping syndrome" occurred in premature neonates and infants in the intensive care unit who received drugs containing benzyl alcohol as a preservative. in these cases, benzyl alcohol dosages of 99 mg/kg/day to 234 mg/kg/day produced high levels of benzyl alcohol and its metabolites in the blood and urine (blood levels of benzyl alcohol were 0.61 mmol/l to 1.378 mmol/l). increlex contains 9 mg/ml benzyl alcohol as a preservative. additional adverse reactions included gradual neurological deterioration, seizures, intracranial hemorrhage, hematologic abnormalities, skin breakdown, hepatic and renal failure, hypotension, bradycardia, and cardiovascular collapse. preterm, low-birth weight infants may be more likely to develop these reactions because they may be less able to metabolize benzyl alcohol. use of increlex in infants is not recommended [see warnings and precautions (5.8)] . safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients below the age of 2 years of age have not been established. the safety and effectiveness of increlex in patients aged 65 and over has not been established. instructions for use increlex® (eenk-ruh-lex) (mecasermin) injection for subcutaneous use read this instructions for use before you start using increlex and each time you get a refill. there may be new information. this information does not take the place of talking to your child's doctor about your child's medical condition or treatment. do not share your child's needles and syringes with another person. your child may give another person an infection or your child could get an infection from them. important : -
