Boxed Warning 7/2024 Dosage and Administration ( 2.1 ) 7/2024 Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 ) 7/2024

1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE STRENSIQ ® is indicated for the treatment of patients with perinatal/infantile- and juvenile-onset hypophosphatasia (HPP). STRENSIQ is a tissue nonspecific alkaline phosphatase indicated for the treatment of patients with perinatal/infantile- and juvenile-onset hypophosphatasia (HPP). ( 1 )

2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION Perinatal/Infantile-Onset HPP ( 2.2 ) Recommended dosage regimen is 2 mg/kg administered subcutaneously three times per week, or 1 mg/kg administered six times per week. Injection site reactions may limit the tolerability of the six times per week regimen. The dose may be increased to 3 mg/kg three times per week for insufficient efficacy. Juvenile-Onset HPP ( 2.3 ) Recommended dosage regimen is 2 mg/kg administered subcutaneously three times per week, or 1 mg/kg administered six times per week. Injection site reactions may limit the tolerability of the six times per week regimen. Preparation and Weight-Based Dosing ( 2.4 ): Caution: Do not use the 80 mg/0.8 mL vial in pediatric patients weighing less than 40 kg because the systemic asfotase alfa exposure achieved with the 80 mg/0.8 mL vial (higher concentration) is lower than that achieved with the other strength vials (lower concentration). A lower exposure may not be adequate for this subgroup of patients. See full prescribing information for tables of weight-based dosing by treatment regimen. Administration ( 2.5 ): For subcutaneous injection only. Rotate injection sites. Do not administer to areas that are reddened, inflamed or swollen. 2.1 Recommendations Prior to STRENSIQ Treatment Initiate STRENSIQ under the supervision of a healthcare provider with appropriate medical monitoring and support measures [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ]. 2.2 Dosage for Perinatal/Infantile-Onset HPP The recommended dosage regimen of STRENSIQ for the treatment of perinatal/infantile-onset HPP is 6 mg/kg per week administered subcutaneously as either: 2 mg/kg three times per week, or 1 mg/kg six times per week. Injection site reactions may limit the tolerability of the six times per week regimen [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ]. The dose of STRENSIQ may be increased for lack of efficacy (e.g., no improvement in respiratory status, growth, or radiographic findings) up to 9 mg/kg per week administered subcutaneously as 3 mg/kg three times per week. 2.3 Dosage for Juvenile-Onset HPP The recommended dosage regimen of STRENSIQ for the treatment of juvenile-onset HPP is 6 mg/kg per week administered subcutaneously as either: 2 mg/kg three times per week, or 1 mg/kg six times per week. Injection site reactions may limit the tolerability of the six times per week regimen [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) ]. 2.4 Preparation and Weight-Based Dosing Tables Caution: Do not use the 80 mg/0.8 mL vial of STRENSIQ in pediatric patients weighing less than 40 kg because the systemic exposure of asfotase alfa achieved with the 80 mg/0.8 mL vial (higher concentration) is lower than that achieved with the other strength vials (lower concentration). A lower exposure may not be adequate for this subgroup of patients [see Dosage Forms and Strengths (3) , Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] . 1. Determine the total weekly volume needed for the prescribed dosage based on the patient's weight and recommended dosage. Follow these steps to determine the patient dose. Total weekly dose (mg) = patient's weight (kg) × prescribed dose (mg/kg/week) Total injection volume (mL) per week = Total dose (mg/week) divided by the STRENSIQ concentration (40 mg/mL or 100 mg/mL). Note product concentrations are: 40 mg/mL (vial strengths 18 mg/0.45 mL, 28 mg/0.7 mL, 40 mg/mL) or 100 mg/mL (vial strength 80 mg/0.8 mL). Round total injection volume to the nearest hundredth of a mL Total number of vials per week = Total injection volume divided by vial volume (mL) 2. Determine the number of injection days per week (three or six per week). 3. Determine dose per injection day. Patient weights should be rounded to the nearest kilogram when determining dose. Use the following tables for guidance, for patients administering 2 mg/kg three times per week (Table 1), 1 mg/kg six times per week (Table 2) and for dose escalations to 3 mg/kg three times per week, recommended only for patients with perinatal/infantile-onset HPP [see …

6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following adverse reactions are described below and elsewhere in the labeling: Hypersensitivity Reactions [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] Lipodystrophy [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ] Ectopic Calcifications [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ] Possible Immune-Mediated Clinical Effects [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4) ] Most common adverse reactions (≥ 10%) are injection site reactions, lipodystrophy, ectopic calcifications and hypersensitivity reactions. ( 6.1 ) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. at 1-844-259-6783 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch. 6.1 Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice. The data described below reflect exposure to STRENSIQ in 99 patients with perinatal/infantile- or juvenile onset HPP (age 1 day to 58 years) treated with STRENSIQ, most for more than 2 years (range 1 day to 312 weeks [78 months]): 51 patients received at least 96 weeks (24 months) of treatment and 39 patients received 168 weeks (42 months) or more of treatment [see Clinical Studies (14) ] . Common Adverse Reactions Overall, the most common adverse reactions reported were injection site reactions (63%) . Other common adverse reactions included lipodystrophy (28%), ectopic calcifications (14%), and hypersensitivity reactions (12%). Table 4 summarizes the adverse reactions that occurred at a rate of at least 10% in clinical trials following subcutaneous injection of STRENSIQ by patient population and STRENSIQ dosage regimen. The frequency of injection site reactions, lipodystrophy and ectopic calcification were higher in patients with juvenile-onset HPP as compared to perinatal/infantile-onset HPP patients. The majority of injection site reactions resolved within a week. Two patients experienced injection site reactions that led to reductions of their STRENSIQ dose. One patient switched from six times per week dosing to 3 times per week dosing as a result of injection site reactions. One other patient experienced a severe injection site reaction of injection site discoloration and withdrew from the trial.

7 DRUG INTERACTIONS Drug Interference with Laboratory Tests: Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) is used as a detection reagent in many laboratory tests and the presence of asfotase alfa in clinical laboratory samples could result in erroneous test results. Inform laboratory personnel and discuss use of an alternative testing platform for patients on treatment. ( 7.1 ) Serum Alkaline Phosphatase : Serum ALP measurements are expected to be elevated during treatment and may be unreliable for clinical decision making. ( 7.1 ) 7.1 Drug Interference with Laboratory Tests Laboratory Tests Utilizing Alkaline Phosphatase as a Detection Reagent Studies have shown that there is analytical interference between asfotase alfa and laboratory tests that utilize an alkaline phosphatase (ALP)-conjugated test system, rendering erroneous test results in patients treated with STRENSIQ. ALP-conjugated test systems are utilized to measure substances such as hormones, bacterial antigens and antibodies. Therefore, it is recommended that laboratory assays which do not have ALP-conjugate technology be used when testing samples from patients who are receiving STRENSIQ. To avoid erroneous test results for patients treated with STRENSIQ, inform laboratory personnel that the patient is being treated with STRENSIQ and discuss the use of a testing platform which does not utilize an ALP-conjugated test system. Serum Alkaline Phosphatase High serum ALP measurements detected through clinical laboratory testing are expected in patients receiving STRENSIQ and reflect circulating concentrations of asfotase alfa . Do not rely on serum ALP measurements for clinical decision making in patients treated with STRENSIQ.

8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS 8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary There are no available data on STRENSIQ use in pregnant women to inform a drug associated risk. In animal reproduction studies, asfotase alfa administered intravenously to pregnant rats and rabbits during the period of organogenesis showed no evidence of fetotoxicity, embryolethality or teratogenicity at doses causing plasma exposures up to 21 and 24 times, respectively, the exposure at the recommended human dose (see Data ) . In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2 to 4% and 15 to 20%, respectively. Data Animal Data Asfotase alfa administered during the period of organogenesis to rats (from gestation Day 6 to Day 19 post-partum) and rabbits (on gestation days 7 to 19) at intravenous doses up to 50 mg/kg/day, approximately 21 and 24 times the human AUC of 65486 ng.h/mL at 2 mg/kg dose administered three times weekly for a 50 kg individual, respectively did not cause any adverse effects on embryofetal development. A pre- and post-natal development study in pregnant rats showed no evidence of adverse effects on pre- and post-natal development at intravenous doses (from Day 6 of gestation to Day 19 postpartum) of asfotase alfa up to 50 mg/kg/day approximately 21 times the human AUC of 65486 ng.h/mL at 2 mg/kg dose administered three times weekly for a 50 kg individual. 8.2 Lactation Risk Summary There are no data on the presence of asfotase alfa in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother's clinical need for STRENSIQ and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from asfotase alfa or from the underlying maternal condition. 8.4 Pediatric Use The safety and effectiveness of STRENSIQ for the treatment of perinatal/infantile- and juvenile-onset HPP have been established in pediatric patients. Use of STRENSIQ for this indication is based on 4 prospective, open-label clinical trials conducted in 89 pediatric patients with perinatal/infantile-onset or juvenile-onset HPP [see Clinical Studies (14) ]. 8.5 Geriatric Use No patients with perinatal/infantile- or juvenile-onset HPP aged 65 years were enrolled in clinical trials of STRENSIQ. Therefore, there is no information available to determine whether patients aged 65 years and over respond differently from younger patients.

12.1 Mechanism of Action HPP is caused by a deficiency in TNSALP enzyme activity, which leads to elevations in several TNSALP substrates, including inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi). TNSALP is a metallo-enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of phosphomonoesters with release of inorganic phosphate and alcohol. Elevated extracellular levels of PPi block hydroxyapatite crystal growth which inhibits bone mineralization and causes an accumulation of unmineralized bone matrix which manifests as rickets and bone deformation in infants and children and as osteomalacia (softening of bones) once growth plates close, along with muscle weakness. Replacement of the TNSALP enzyme upon STRENSIQ treatment reduces the enzyme substrate levels.

11 DESCRIPTION Asfotase alfa is a tissue nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP) produced by recombinant DNA technology in a Chinese hamster ovary cell line. Asfotase alfa is a soluble glycoprotein composed of two identical polypeptide chains. Each chain contains 726 amino acids with a theoretical mass of 161 kDa. Each chain consists of the catalytic domain of human TNSALP, the human immunoglobulin G 1 Fc domain and a deca-aspartate peptide used as a bone targeting domain. The two polypeptide chains are covalently linked by two disulfide bonds. STRENSIQ (asfotase alfa) injection is a sterile, preservative-free, nonpyrogenic, clear, slightly opalescent or opalescent, colorless to slightly yellow, with few small translucent or white particles, aqueous solution for subcutaneous administration. STRENSIQ is supplied in glass single-dose vials containing asfotase alfa; dibasic sodium phosphate, heptahydrate; monobasic sodium phosphate, monohydrate; and sodium chloride at a pH between 7.2 and 7.6. Table 5 describes the content of STRENSIQ vial presentations.
