The data described below reflect exposure of 80 patients with type 1 Gaucher disease in two open-label, uncontrolled, monotherapy trials, one open-label, active-controlled trial, and two extensions, who received miglustat at doses ranging from 50 mg to 200 mg three times daily. Patients were aged 18 to 69 years at first treatment. The population was evenly distributed by gender. The most common serious adverse reaction reported with miglustat treatment in clinical trials was peripheral neuropathy [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ]. The most commonly reported adverse reactions in patients treated with miglustat (occurring in ≥5%) that were considered related to miglustat are shown in Tables 1 and 2 [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2 , 5.3) ]. The most common adverse reactions requiring intervention were diarrhea and tremor [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2 , 5.3) ]. In two open-label, uncontrolled monotherapy trials, adult type 1 Gaucher disease patients were treated with miglustat at a starting dose of 100 mg three times daily (dose range 100 to 200 mg three times daily) for up to 12 months in 28 patients [Study 1], or at a dose of 50 mg three times daily for up to 6 months in 18 patients [Study 2].

11 DESCRIPTION Miglustat (miglustat capsules, 100 mg) is a glucosylceramide synthase inhibitor, which is a glucosyl transferase enzyme responsible for the first step in the synthesis of most glycosphingolipids. miglustat is an N-alkylated imino sugar, a synthetic analog of D-glucose. The chemical name for miglustat is 1,5-(butylimino)-1,5-dideoxy-D-glucitol with the chemical formula C 10 H 21 NO 4 and a molecular weight of 219.28. Miglustat is a white to off-white crystalline solid and has a bitter taste. It is highly soluble in water (>1000 mg/mL as a free base). Miglustat is supplied in hard gelatin capsules each containing 100 mg miglustat for oral administration. Each miglustat 100 mg capsule also contains magnesium stearate, povidone (K30), and sodium starch glycolate. Ingredients in the capsule shell include gelatin and titanium dioxide, and the shells are printed with edible ink consisting of black iron oxide and shellac. Chemical Structure

2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION Recommended dosage is 100 mg administered orally three times a day at regular intervals ( 2.1 ). May reduce dosage to 100 mg once or twice a day in some patients due to tremor or diarrhea ( 2.1 ). Adjust in patients with renal impairment ( 2.2 ): Renal Impairment Adjusted Creatinine Clearance (in mL/min/1.73 m 2 ) Recommendations Mild 50 – 70 Start dose at 100 mg twice a day Moderate 30 – 50 Start dose at 100 mg once a day Severe <30 Use is not recommended 2.1 Instructions for Administration Therapy should be directed by physicians who are knowledgeable in the management of Gaucher disease. The recommended dose for the treatment of adult patients with type 1 Gaucher disease is one 100 mg capsule administered orally three times a day at regular intervals. If a dose is missed, the next miglustat capsule should be taken at the next scheduled time. It may be necessary to reduce the dose to one 100 mg capsule once or twice a day in some patients due to adverse reactions, such as tremor or diarrhea. 2.2 Patients with Renal Insufficiency In patients with mild renal impairment (adjusted creatinine clearance 50–70 mL/min/1.73 m 2 ), initiate miglustat treatment at a dose of 100 mg twice per day. In patients with moderate renal impairment (adjusted creatinine clearance of 30–50 mL/min/1.73 m 2 ), initiate miglustat treatment at a dose of one 100 mg capsule per day. Miglustat is not recommended for use in patients with severe renal impairment (creatinine clearance <30 mL/min/1.73 m 2 ) [ see Use in Specific Populations (8.6) ].

1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE Miglustat is a glucosylceramide synthase inhibitor indicated as monotherapy for treatment of adult patients with mild/moderate type 1 Gaucher disease for whom enzyme replacement therapy is not a therapeutic option ( 1.1 ). 1.1 Type 1 Gaucher Disease Miglustat is indicated as monotherapy for the treatment of adult patients with mild to moderate type 1 Gaucher disease for whom enzyme replacement therapy is not a therapeutic option (e.g. due to allergy, hypersensitivity, or poor venous access).

7 DRUG INTERACTIONS While co-administration of miglustat appeared to increase the clearance of imiglucerase by 70%, these results are not conclusive because of the small number of patients studied and because patients took variable doses of imiglucerase [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]. Co-administration of miglustat and imiglucerase may lead to increased clearance of imiglucerase ( 7 ).

12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY 12.1 Mechanism of Action Type 1 Gaucher disease is caused by a functional deficiency of glucocerebrosidase, the enzyme that mediates the degradation of the glycosphingolipid glucosylceramide. Miglustat functions as a competitive and reversible inhibitor of the enzyme glucosylceramide synthase, the initial enzyme in a series of reactions which results in the synthesis of most glycosphingolipids. Miglustat helps reduce the rate of glycosphingolipid biosynthesis so that the amount of glycosphingolipid substrate is reduced to a level which allows the residual activity of the deficient glucocerebrosidase enzyme to be more effective (substrate reduction therapy). In vitro and in vivo studies have shown that miglustat can reduce the synthesis of glucosylceramide-based glycosphingolipids. 12.3 Pharmacokinetics Absorption After a 100 mg oral dose, the time to maximum observed plasma concentration of miglustat (t max ) ranged from 2 to 2.5 hours in Gaucher patients. Plasma concentrations show a biexponential decline, characterized by a short distribution phase and a longer elimination phase. The effective half-life of miglustat is approximately 6 to 7 hours, which predicts that steady-state will be achieved by 1.5 to 2 days following the start of three times daily dosing. Miglustat, dosed at 50 and 100 mg three times daily in Gaucher patients, exhibits dose-proportional pharmacokinetics. The pharmacokinetics of miglustat were not altered after repeated dosing three times daily for up to 12 months. In healthy subjects, co-administration of miglustat with food results in a decrease in the rate of absorption of miglustat (maximum plasma concentration [C max ] was decreased by 36% and t max delayed 2 h) but had no statistically significant effect on the extent of absorption of miglustat (area-under-the-plasma-concentration time curve [AUC] was decreased by 14%). The mean oral bioavailability of a 100-mg miglustat capsule is about 97% relative to an oral solution administered under fasting conditions. The pharmacokinetics of miglustat were similar between adult type 1 Gaucher disease patients and healthy subjects after a single dose administration of miglustat 100 mg. Distribution Miglustat does not bind to plasma proteins. Mean apparent volume of distribution of miglustat is 83–105 liters in Gaucher patients. At steady state, the concentration of miglustat in cerebrospinal fluid of six non-Gaucher patients was 31.4–67.2% of that in plasma, indicating that miglustat crosses the blood brain barrier. Metabolism and Excretion The major route of excretion of miglustat is via kidney. Following administration of a single dose of 100 mg 14 C-miglustat to healthy volunteers, 83% of the radioactivity was recovered in urine and 12% in feces. In healthy subjects, 67% of the administered dose was excreted unchanged in urine over 72 hours. The most abundant metabolite in urine was miglustat glucuronide accounting for 5% of the dose. The terminal half-life of radioactivity in plasma was 150 hours, suggesting the presence of one or more metabolites with a prolonged half-life. The metabolite accounting for this observation has not been identified, but may accumulate and reach concentrations exceeding those of miglustat at steady state. Specific Populations Gender There was no statistically significant gender difference in miglustat pharmacokinetics, based on pooled data analysis. Race Ethnic differences in miglustat pharmacokinetics have not been evaluated in Gaucher patients. However, apparent oral clearance of miglustat in patients of Ashkenazi Jewish descent was not statistically different to that in others (1 Asian and 15 Caucasians), based on a cross-study analysis. Hepatic Impairment No studies have been performed to assess the pharmacokinetics of miglustat in patients with hepatic impairment. Renal Impairment Limited data in non-Gaucher patients with impaired renal function indicate that the apparent oral clearance (CL/F) of miglustat decreases with decreasing renal function. While the number of subjects with mild and moderate renal impairment was very small, the data suggest an approximate decrease in the apparent oral clearance of 40% and 60% respectively, in mild and moderate renal impairment, justifying the need to decrease the dosing of miglustat in such patients dependent upon creatinine clearance levels [see Dosage and Administration (2.2) ]. Data in severe renal impairment are limited to two patients with creatinine clearances in the range 18–29 mL/min and cannot be extrapolated below this range. These data suggest a decrease in CL/F by at least 70% in patients with severe renal impairment [see Dosage and Administration (2.2) and Use in Specific Populations (8.6) ]. Drug Interaction Studies Miglustat does not inhibit the metabolism of various substrates of cytochrome P450 enzymes including, CYP1A2, CYP2A6, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP2E1, CYP3A4 and CYP4A11 in vitro ; consequently, significant interactions via inhibition of these enzymes are unlikely with drugs that are substrates of cytochrome P450 enzymes. Drug interaction between miglustat (miglustat 100 mg orally three times daily) and imiglucerase 7.5 or 15 U/kg/day was assessed in imiglucerase-stabilized patients after one month of co-administration. There was no significant effect of imiglucerase on the pharmacokinetics of miglustat, with the co-administration of imiglucerase and miglustat resulting in a 22% reduction in C max and a 14% reduction in the AUC for miglustat. While miglustat appeared to increase the clearance of imiglucerase by 70%, these results are not conclusive because of the small number of subjects studied and because patients took variable doses of imiglucerase [see Drug Interactions (7) ]. Concomitant therapy with loperamide during clinical trials did not appear to significantly alter the pharmacokinetics of miglustat.

13.2 Animal Toxicology and/or Pharmacology Histopathology findings in the absence of clinical signs in the central nervous system of the monkey (brain, spine) that included vascular mineralization, in addition to mineralization and necrosis of white matter were observed at >750 mg/kg/day (4 times the human therapeutic systemic exposure based on area-under-the-plasma-concentration curve [AUC] comparisons) in a 52-week oral toxicity study using doses of 750 and 2000 mg/kg/d. Vacuolization of white matter was observed in rats dosed orally by gavage at ≥180 mg/kg/d (6 times the human therapeutic exposure based on surface area comparisons, mg/m 2 ) in a 4-week study using doses of 180, 840, and 4200 mg/kg/d. Vacuolization can sometimes occur as an artifact of tissue processing. Findings in dogs included tremor and absent corneal reflexes at 105 mg/kg/day (10 times the human therapeutic systemic exposure, based on body surface area comparisons, mg/m 2 ) after a 4-week oral gavage toxicity study using doses of 35, 70, 105, and 140 mg/kg/d. Ataxia, diminished/absent pupillary, palpebral, or patellar reflexes were observed in a dog at ≥495 mg/kg/day (50 times the human therapeutic systemic exposure based on body surface area comparisons, mg/m 2 ), in a 2-week oral gavage toxicity study using doses of 85, 165, 495, and 825 mg/kg/d. Cataracts were observed in rats at ≥180 mg/kg/day (4 times the human therapeutic systemic exposure, based on AUC) in a 52-week oral gavage toxicity study using doses of 180, 420, 840, and 1680 mg/kg/d. Gastrointestinal necrosis, inflammation, and hemorrhage were observed in dogs at ≥85 mg/kg/day (9 times the human therapeutic systemic exposure based on body surface area comparisons, mg/m 2 ) after a 2-week oral (capsule) toxicity study using doses of 85, 165, 495, and 825 mg/kg/d. Similar GI toxicity occurred in rats at 1200 mg/kg/day (7 times the human therapeutic systemic exposure, based on AUC) in a 26-week oral gavage toxicity study using doses of 300, 600, and 1200 mg/kg/d. In monkeys, similar GI toxicity occurred at ≥750 mg/kg/day (6 times the human therapeutic systemic exposure based on AUC) following a 52-week oral gavage toxicity study using doses of 750 and 2000 mg/kg/d.

13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility Carcinogenesis Two-year carcinogenicity studies have been conducted with miglustat in CD-1 mice at oral doses up to 500 mg/kg/day and in Sprague Dawley rats at oral doses up to 180 mg/kg/day. Oral administration of miglustat for 104 weeks produced mucinous adenocarcinomas of the large intestine at 210, 420 and 500 mg/kg/day (about 3, 6 and 7 times the recommended human dose, respectively, based on the body surface area) in male mice and at 420 and 500 mg/kg/day (about 6 and 7 times the recommended human dose, based on the body surface area) in female mice. The adenocarcinomas were considered rare in CD-1 mice and occurred in the presence of inflammatory and hyperplastic lesions in the large intestine of both males and females. In rats, oral administration of miglustat for 100 weeks produced increased incidences of interstitial cell adenomas of the testis at 30, 60 and 180 mg/kg/day (about 1, 2 and 5 times the recommended human dose, respectively, based on the body surface area). Mutagenesis Miglustat was not mutagenic or clastogenic in a battery of in vitro and in vivo assays including the bacterial reverse mutation (Ames), chromosomal aberration (in human lymphocytes), gene mutation in mammalian cells (Chinese hamster ovary), and mouse micronucleus assays. Impairment of Fertility Miglustat was administered by oral gavage to male rats at doses of 20, 60, 180 mg/kg/day beginning at least 14 days prior to mating and continuing through mating. Effects on sperm parameters (concentration, motility and morphology) resulting in decreased fertility were observed at all dose levels (the lowest dose level was 0.65 times the human therapeutic dose on a mg/m 2 basis). Reversibility was demonstrated following 6 weeks of drug withdrawal. Findings of, seminiferous tubule degeneration and atrophy were observed in the testes in rat repeat-dose toxicity studies. Miglustat was administered by oral gavage to female rats at doses of 20, 60, 180 mg/kg/day beginning 14 days before mating and continuing through gestation day 17. There were no effects on mating performance or fertility in female rats at doses up to 180 mg/kg/day. However, increased post implantation loss and decreased embryo-fetal survival were observed at doses ≥60 mg/kg/day (≥2 times the human therapeutic dose on a mg/m 2 basis).

14 CLINICAL STUDIES The efficacy of miglustat in type 1 Gaucher disease has been investigated in two open-label, uncontrolled trials and one randomized, open-label, active-controlled trial with enzyme replacement given as imiglucerase. Patients who received miglustat were treated with doses ranging from 100 to 600 mg a day, although the majority of patients were maintained on doses between 200 to 300 mg a day. Efficacy parameters included the evaluation of liver and spleen organ volume, hemoglobin concentration, and platelet count. A total of 80 patients were exposed to miglustat during the three trials and their extension period. Open-Label Uncontrolled Monotherapy Trials In Study 1, miglustat was administered at a starting dose of 100 mg three times daily for 12 months (dose range of 100 once-daily to 200 mg three times daily) to 28 adult patients with type 1 Gaucher disease, who were unable to receive enzyme replacement therapy and who had not taken enzyme replacement therapy in the preceding 6 months. Twenty-two patients completed the trial. After 12 months of treatment, the results showed significant mean percent reductions from baseline in liver volume of 12% and spleen volume of 19%, a non-significant increase from baseline in mean absolute hemoglobin concentration of 0.26 g/dL and a mean absolute increase from baseline in platelet counts of 8×10 9 /L (See Tables 3–6). In Study 2, miglustat was administered at a dose of 50 mg three times daily for 6 months to 18 adult patients with type 1 Gaucher disease who were unable to receive enzyme replacement therapy and who had not taken enzyme replacement therapy in the preceding 6 months. Seventeen patients completed the trial. After 6 months of treatment, the results showed significant mean percent reductions from baseline in liver volume of 6% and spleen volume of 5%. There was a non-significant mean absolute decrease from baseline in hemoglobin concentration of 0.13 g/dL and a non-significant mean absolute increase from baseline in platelet counts of 5×10 9 /L (See Tables 3–6). Extension Period Eighteen patients were enrolled in a 12-month extension to Study 1. A subset of patients continuing in the extension had larger mean baseline liver volumes, and lower mean baseline platelet counts and hemoglobin concentrations than the original study population (See Tables 3–6). After a total of 24 months of treatment, there were significant mean decreases from baseline in liver and spleen organ volumes of 15% and 27%, respectively, and significant mean absolute increases from baseline in hemoglobin concentration and platelet count of 0.9 g/dL and 14×10 9 /L, respectively (See Tables 3–6). Sixteen patients were enrolled in a 6-month extension to Study 2. After a total of 12 months of treatment, there was a mean decrease from baseline in spleen organ volume of 10%, whereas the mean percent decrease in liver organ volume remained at 6%. There were no significant changes in hemoglobin concentrations or platelet counts (See Tables 3–6). Liver volume results from Studies 1 and 2 and their extensions are summarized in Table 3: Table 3: Liver Volume Changes in Two Open-Label Uncontrolled Monotherapy Trials of miglustat with Extension Period Liver Volume n Absolute Mean (L) (2-sided 95% CI) Percent Mean (%) (2-sided 95% CI) Study 1 (starting dose miglustat 100 mg three times daily) Baseline (Month 0) 21 2.39 Month 12 Change from baseline -0.28 (-0.38, -0.18) -12.1% (-16.4, 7.9) Study 1 Extension Phase Baseline (Month 0) 12 2.54 Month 24 Change from baseline -0.36 (-0.48, -0.24) -14.5% (-19.3, 9.7) Study 2 (miglustat 50 mg three times daily) Baseline (Month 0) 17 2.45 Month 6 Change from baseline -0.14 (-0.25, -0.03) -5.9% (-9.9, -1.9) Study 2 Extension Phase Baseline (Month 0) 13 2.35 Month 12 Change from baseline -0.17 (-0.3, -0.0) -6.2% (-12.0, -0.5) Spleen volume results from Studies 1 and 2 and their extensions are summarized in Table 4: Table 4: Spleen Volume Changes in Two Open-Label Uncontrolled Monotherapy Trials of miglustat with Extension Period Spleen Volume n Absolute Mean (L) (2-sided 95% CI) Percent Mean (%) (2-sided 95% CI) Study 1 (starting dose miglustat 100 mg three times daily) Baseline (Month 0) 18 1.64 Month 12 Change from baseline -0.32 (-0.42, -0.22) -19.0% (-23.7, -14.3) Study 1 Extension Phase Baseline (Month 0) 10 1.56 Month 24 Change from baseline -0.42 (-0.53, -0.30) -26.4% (-30.4, -22.4) Study 2 (miglustat 50 mg three times daily) Baseline (Month 0) 11 1.98 Month 6 Change from baseline -0.09 (-0.18, -0.01) -4.5% (-8.2, -0.7) Study 2 Extension Phase Baseline (Month 0) 9 1.98 Month 12 Change from baseline -0.23 (-0.46, 0.00) -10.1% (-20.1, -0.1) Hemoglobin concentration results from Studies 1 and 2 and their extensions are summarized in Table 5: Table 5: Hemoglobin Concentration Changes in Two Open-Label Uncontrolled Monotherapy Trials of miglustat with Extension Period Hemoglobin Concentration n Absolute Mean (g/dL) (2-sided 95% CI) Percent Mean (%) (2-sided 95% CI) Study 1 (starting dose miglustat 100 mg three times daily) Baseline (Month 0) 22 11.94 Month 12 Change from baseline 0.26 (-0.05, 0.57) 2.6% (-0.5, 5.7) Study 1 Extension Phase Baseline (Month 0) 13 11.03 Month 24 Change from baseline 0.91 (0.30, 1.53) 9.1% (2.9, 15.2) Study 2 (miglustat 50 mg three times daily) Baseline (Month 0) 17 11.60 Month 6 Change from baseline -0.13 (-0.51, 0.24) -1.3% (-4.4, 1.8) Study 2 Extension Phase Baseline (Month 0) 13 11.94 Month 12 Change from baseline 0.06 (-0.73, 0.85) 1.2% (-5.2, 7.7) Platelet count results from Studies 1 and 2 and their extensions are summarized in Table 6: Table 6: Platelet Count Changes in Two Open-Label Uncontrolled Monotherapy Trials of miglustat with Extension Period Platelet Count n Absolute Mean (10 9 /L) (2-sided 95% CI) Percent Mean (%) (2-sided 95% CI) Study 1 (starting dose miglustat 100 mg three times daily) Baseline (Month 0) 22 76.58 Month 12 Change from baseline 8.28 (1.88, 14.69) 16.0% (-0.8, 32.8) Study 1 Extension Phase Baseline (Month 0) 13 72.35 Month 24 Change from baseline 13.58 (7.72, 19.43) 26.1% (14.7, 37.5) Study 2 (miglustat 50 mg three times daily) Baseline (Month 0) 17 116.47 Month 6 Change from baseline 5.35 (-6.31, 17.02) 2.0% (-6.9, 10.8) Study 2 Extension Phase Baseline (Month 0) 13 122.15 Month 12 Change from baseline 14.0 (-3.4, 31.4) 14.7% (-1.4, 30.7) Open-Label Active-Controlled Trial Study 3 was an open-label, randomized, active-controlled study of 36 adult patients with type 1 Gaucher disease, who had been receiving enzyme replacement therapy with imiglucerase for a minimum of 2 years prior to study entry. Patients were randomized 1:1:1 to one of three treatment groups, as follows: miglustat 100 mg three times daily alone imiglucerase (patient's usual dose) alone miglustat 100 mg three times daily and imiglucerase (usual dose) Patients were treated for 6 months, and 33 patients completed the study. Because miglustat is only indicated as monotherapy, the results for the monotherapy arms are described below. At Month 6, the results showed a decrease in mean percent change in liver volume in the miglustat treatment group compared to the imiglucerase alone group. There were no significant differences between the groups for mean absolute changes in liver and spleen volume and hemoglobin concentration. However, there was a significant difference between the miglustat alone and imiglucerase alone groups in platelet counts at Month 6, with the miglustat alone group having a mean absolute decrease in platelet count of 21.6×10 9 /L and the imiglucerase alone group having a mean absolute increase in platelet count of 10.1×10 9 /L (See Tables 7–10). Extension Period Twenty-nine patients were enrolled in a 6-month extension to Study 3. In the extension phase, all 29 patients had withdrawn from imiglucerase and received open-label miglustat 100 mg three times daily monotherapy. At Month 12, the results showed non-significant decreases in platelet counts from baseline in all the treatment groups (by original randomization). There was a significant decrease in platelet counts from Month 6 to Month 12 in the group originally randomized to treatment with imiglucerase, and a continued decrease in platelet counts in the group originally randomized to miglustat alone. There were no significant changes in any treatment group for liver volume, spleen volume, or hemoglobin concentration (See Tables 7–10).

8.5 Geriatric Use Clinical studies of miglustat did not include sufficient numbers of patients aged 65 and over to determine whether they respond differently than younger patients. Other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between elderly and younger patients. In general, dose selection for an elderly patient should be cautious, usually starting at the low end of the dosing range, reflecting the greater frequency of decreased hepatic, renal, and cardiac function and of concomitant disease or other drug therapy.

8.4 Pediatric Use The safety and effectiveness of miglustat in pediatric patients have not been established. In a combined clinical trial safety data set of 45 patients less than 18 years of age exposed to miglustat in indications other than type 1 Gaucher disease, the median weight and height percentiles adjusted for age and gender decreased during the first year of treatment but then stabilized. The mean length of exposure in these studies ranged from 2 to 2.6 years; some pediatric patients were exposed for up to 4 years. However, the effect of miglustat on long-term gain in weight and height in pediatric patients is unclear.

8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Based on findings from animal reproduction studies, miglustat may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. Available data from postmarketing case reports with miglustat use in pregnancy are insufficient to assess a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. There are risks associated with symptomatic Type I Gaucher disease in pregnancy, including hepatosplenomegaly and thrombocytopenia (see Clinical Considerations ). Advise pregnant women of the potential risks to the fetus. In animal reproduction studies, miglustat was maternally toxic in rabbits at exposures near the expected human therapeutic dose and caused embryo-fetal toxicities in rats at doses twice the recommended human dose. No adverse developmental outcomes were observed with administration of miglustat to pregnant rats at dose levels 6 times the recommended human dose. (see Data ). The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defect, loss, or other adverse outcomes. 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. Clinical Considerations Disease-associated Maternal and Embryo-Fetal Risk Pregnancy may exacerbate existing Type 1 Gaucher disease symptoms or result in new disease manifestations. Type 1 Gaucher disease manifestations may lead to adverse pregnancy outcomes including, hepatosplenomegaly which can interfere with the normal growth of a pregnancy and thrombocytopenia which can lead to increased bleeding and possible hemorrhage. Data Animal Data In female rats given miglustat by oral gavage at doses of 20, 60, 180 mg/kg/day beginning 14 days before mating and continuing through gestation day 17 (organogenesis), increased post implantation loss, decreased embryo-fetal survival and decreased fetal and pup weights were observed at doses ≥60 mg/kg/day (≥2 times the human therapeutic dose on a mg/m 2 basis). Miglustat was also administered to pregnant rats by oral gavage at doses of 20, 60, 180 mg/kg/day from gestation day 6 through lactation (postpartum day 20). Delayed and prolonged parturition with decreased live births were observed at doses ≥60 mg/kg/day (≥2 times the human therapeutic dose on a mg/m 2 basis). In pregnant rabbits given miglustat by oral gavage at doses of 15, 30, 45 mg/kg/day during gestation days 6–18 (organogenesis), maternal toxicity, including maternal deaths (all doses), reduced food consumption (30 and 45 mg/kg/day), and decreased body weight gain (15 and 30 mg/kg/day), was observed. The 15 mg/kg/day dose level was 0.97 times the human therapeutic dose on a mg/m 2 basis. In a pre- and postnatal development study in rats, miglustat was administered by oral gavage at doses of 20, 60, 180 mg/kg/day from gestation day 6 through day 20 of lactation, decreased live births were observed in dams, as well as decreased body weight gain in the offspring at doses ≥60 mg/kg/day (≥2 times the human therapeutic dose on a mg/m 2 basis). There was no effect on behavioral and learning assessments, sexual maturation or reproductive performance of the offspring at doses up to 180 mg/kg/day (about 6 times the human therapeutic dose on a mg/m 2 basis).

Lactation : Breastfeeding not recommended ( 8.2 ). 8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Based on findings from animal reproduction studies, miglustat may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman.

Delayed and prolonged parturition with decreased live births were observed at doses ≥60 mg/kg/day (≥2 times the human therapeutic dose on a mg/m 2 basis). In pregnant rabbits given miglustat by oral gavage at doses of 15, 30, 45 mg/kg/day during gestation days 6–18 (organogenesis), maternal toxicity, including maternal deaths (all doses), reduced food consumption (30 and 45 mg/kg/day), and decreased body weight gain (15 and 30 mg/kg/day), was observed. The 15 mg/kg/day dose level was 0.97 times the human therapeutic dose on a mg/m 2 basis. In a pre- and postnatal development study in rats, miglustat was administered by oral gavage at doses of 20, 60, 180 mg/kg/day from gestation day 6 through day 20 of lactation, decreased live births were observed in dams, as well as decreased body weight gain in the offspring at doses ≥60 mg/kg/day (≥2 times the human therapeutic dose on a mg/m 2 basis). There was no effect on behavioral and learning assessments, sexual maturation or reproductive performance of the offspring at doses up to 180 mg/kg/day (about 6 times the human therapeutic dose on a mg/m 2 basis). 8.2 Lactation Risk Summary There are no available data on the presence of miglustat in either human or animal milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. Based on the physical properties of miglustat, miglustat is likely to be present in breast milk. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in breastfed infants, advise women that breastfeeding is not recommended. 8.3 Females and Males of Reproductive Potential Infertility Findings from a small clinical study in seven healthy adult males who received miglustat for six weeks did not indicate effects on male fertility. Studies in male rats have shown that miglustat decreased fertility but findings were reversible. Studies in female rats have shown increased post-implantation loss and decreased embryo-fetal survival [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1) , Nonclinical Toxicology (13.1) ] . 8.4 Pediatric Use The safety and effectiveness of miglustat in pediatric patients have not been established. In a combined clinical trial safety data set of 45 patients less than 18 years of age exposed to miglustat in indications other than type 1 Gaucher disease, the median weight and height percentiles adjusted for age and gender decreased during the first year of treatment but then stabilized. The mean length of exposure in these studies ranged from 2 to 2.6 years; some pediatric patients were exposed for up to 4 years. However, the effect of miglustat on long-term gain in weight and height in pediatric patients is unclear. 8.5 Geriatric Use Clinical studies of miglustat did not include sufficient numbers of patients aged 65 and over to determine whether they respond differently than younger patients. Other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between elderly and younger patients. In general, dose selection for an elderly patient should be cautious, usually starting at the low end of the dosing range, reflecting the greater frequency of decreased hepatic, renal, and cardiac function and of concomitant disease or other drug therapy. 8.6 Renal Impairment Miglustat is known to be substantially excreted by the kidney, and the risk of adverse reactions to this drug may be greater in patients with impaired renal function [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]. In patients with mild renal impairment (adjusted creatinine clearance 50–70 mL/min/1.73 m 2 ), miglustat administration should commence at a dose of 100 mg twice per day. In patients with moderate renal impairment (adjusted creatinine clearance of 30–50 mL/min/1.73 m 2 ), miglustat administration should commence at a dose of 100 mg once a day. Use of miglustat in patients with severe renal impairment (creatinine clearance <30 mL/min/1.73 m 2 ) is not recommended. Since elderly patients are more likely to have decreased renal function, care should be taken in dose selection, and it may be useful to monitor renal function. The impact of hemodialysis on the disposition of miglustat has not been investigated.
