1. What is REZZAYO and what is it used for

What is REZZAYO

REZZAYO contains the active substance rezafungin, which is an antifungal. Rezafungin belongs to a group of medicines called echinocandins.

What REZZAYO is used for

This medicine is given to adults to treat invasive candidiasis, a serious fungal infection in tissues or organs caused by a type of yeast called Candida.

How REZZAYO works

This medicine blocks the action of an enzyme (a type of protein) that fungal cells need to produce a molecule that strengthens their cell walls. This makes the fungal cells fragile and prevents the growth of the fungus. This prevents the infection from spreading and gives the body's natural defenses a chance to eliminate the infection.

Doctor consultation

Discuss your symptoms and treatment with a doctor online.

2. What you need to know before you are given REZZAYO

Warnings and precautions

Infusion-related reactions

REZZAYO may cause infusion-related reactions, which could include flushing of the skin (redness), feeling of warmth, nausea (feeling sick), and chest tightness. Your doctor may decide to monitor you during the infusion to detect signs of an infusion-related reaction. Your doctor may decide to slow down the infusion (drip) if an infusion-related reaction occurs.

Sensitivity to light

REZZAYO may increase the risk of phototoxicity (a disorder in which the skin and eyes become very sensitive to sunlight or other types of light). During treatment and for 7 days after receiving the last dose of this medicine, you should avoid exposure to the sun or use of sunlamps without protection (such as sunscreen).

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or think you may be pregnant, talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using this medicine.

REZZAYO should be given once a week, by infusion (drip) into a vein. The infusion will last at least 1 hour. Your doctor will decide the duration of the infusion and may extend it up to 3 hours to avoid infusion-related reactions.

Detailed information on this medicine is available on the European Medicines Agency website: http://www.ema.europa.eu.

The leaflet can be found in all languages of the European Union/European Economic Area on the European Medicines Agency website.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This information is intended only for healthcare professionals:

REZZAYO should be administered as a single agent by intravenous infusion in sodium chloride 9 mg/ml (0.9%) injection solution, sodium chloride 4.5 mg/ml (0.45%) injection solution, or glucose 5%.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE IN ADULT PATIENTS

REZZAYO should be reconstituted and diluted before administration.

From a microbiological point of view, the reconstituted solution and the diluted infusion solution should be used immediately. If not used immediately, the storage conditions prior to use are the responsibility of the user and would normally not exceed 24 hours between 2 and 8°C from the first opening, unless the reconstitution and dilution are performed in controlled and validated aseptic conditions.

Using aseptic techniques, reconstitute each vial with 9.5 ml of water for injection. The concentration of the reconstituted vial will be 20 mg/ml. Do not use sterile sodium chloride 9 mg/ml (0.9%) injection solution to reconstitute the vial; use only water for injection.

To minimize foam formation, do not shake or mix vigorously. The white to pale yellow powder will dissolve completely. Gently mix with circular movements for a maximum of 5 minutes until the reconstituted solution is a clear, colorless to pale yellow solution. The reconstituted solution should be inspected visually for particles or color changes. If irregularities are detected, do not use the vial.

The vial is for single use only. Therefore, the reconstituted concentrate not used should be discarded immediately.

For the 400 mg loading dose, the reconstitution step should be repeated for the additional vial of REZZAYO (see dosing table).

The total volume to be infused should be 250 ml; therefore, the volume of the infusion bag (or bottle) should be adjusted accordingly, as shown in the dosing table. Aseptically transfer 10 ml from each of the reconstituted vials to an infusion bag (or bottle) containing sodium chloride 9 mg/ml (0.9%) injection solution, sodium chloride 4.5 mg/ml (0.45%) injection solution, or glucose 5%. The total reconstituted volume to be added to the infusion bag or bottle is indicated in the dosing table. Mix the solution by gently inverting the infusion bag (or bottle). Avoid excessive agitation.

After dilution, the solution should be discarded if particles or color changes are detected.
