6 ADVERSE REACTIONS
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.
In two multicenter, randomized, double-blind, vehicle-controlled trials (DERMIS-1 and DERMIS-2), 881 adult and pediatric subjects 6 years of age or older with plaque psoriasis were treated with ZORYVE cream or vehicle topically once daily for 8 weeks.
The median age was 47 years (range 6 to 88). The majority of the subjects were male (64%) and White (82%). The median body surface area (BSA) affected was 5.5% (range 2% to 20%).
The proportion of subjects who discontinued treatment due to an adverse reaction was 1.0% for subjects treated with ZORYVE cream and 1.3% for subjects treated with vehicle cream. The most common adverse reaction that led to discontinuation of ZORYVE cream was application site urticaria (0.3%).
Table 1 presents adverse reactions that occurred in at least 1% of subjects treated with ZORYVE cream, and for which the rate exceeded the rate for vehicle cream.

7 DRUG INTERACTIONS
Drugs that Inhibit Cytochrome P450 (CYP) Enzymes
The co-administration of roflumilast with systemic CYP3A4 inhibitors or dual inhibitors that inhibit both CYP3A4 and CYP1A2 simultaneously (e.g., erythromycin, ketoconazole, fluvoxamine, enoxacin, cimetidine) may increase roflumilast systemic exposure and may result in increased adverse reactions. If these products are co-administered with ZORYVE cream, weigh the potential for increased adverse reactions against benefit [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].

8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS
8.1 Pregnancy
Risk Summary
There are insufficient data available on the use of ZORYVE cream in pregnant women to inform a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or other adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. In animal reproduction studies, roflumilast administered orally to pregnant rats and rabbits during the period of organogenesis produced no fetal structural abnormalities at doses up to 36 and 31 times the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD), respectively. Roflumilast induced post-implantation loss in rats at oral doses greater than or equal to 12 times the MRHD. Roflumilast induced stillbirth and decreased pup viability in mice at oral doses 19 and 59 times the MRHD, respectively. Roflumilast has been shown to adversely affect pup post-natal development when dams were treated with an oral dose 59 times the MRHD during pregnancy and lactation periods in mice (see Data).
The background risk of major 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% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively.
Data
Animal data
In an embryo-fetal development study, pregnant rats were dosed orally during the period of organogenesis with up to 1.8 mg/kg/day roflumilast (36 times the MRHD on a mg/m2 basis). No evidence of structural abnormalities or effects on survival rates were observed. Roflumilast did not affect embryo-fetal development at a maternal oral dose of 0.2 mg/kg/day (4 times the MRHD on a mg/m2 basis).
In a fertility and embryo-fetal development study, male rats were dosed orally with up to 1.8 mg/kg/day roflumilast for 10 weeks and females for 2 weeks prior to pairing and throughout the organogenesis period. Roflumilast induced pre- and post-implantation loss at maternal oral doses greater than or equal to 0.6 mg/kg/day (12 times the MRHD on a mg/m2 basis). Roflumilast did not cause fetal structural abnormalities at maternal oral doses up to 1.8 mg/kg/day (35 times the MRHD on a mg/m2 basis).
In an embryo-fetal development study in rabbits, pregnant does were dosed orally with 0.8 mg/kg/day roflumilast during the period of organogenesis. Roflumilast did not cause fetal structural abnormalities at the maternal oral doses of 0.8 mg/kg/day (31 times the MRHD on a mg/m2 basis).
In pre- and post-natal developmental studies in mice, dams were dosed orally with up to 12 mg/kg/day roflumilast during the period of organogenesis and lactation. Roflumilast induced stillbirth and decreased pup viability at maternal oral doses greater than 2 mg/kg/day and 6 mg/kg/day, respectively (19 and 59 times the MRHD on a mg/m2 basis, respectively). Roflumilast induced delivery retardation in pregnant mice at maternal oral doses greater than 2 mg/kg/day (19 times the MRHD on a mg/m2 basis). Roflumilast decreased pup rearing frequencies at a maternal oral dose of 6 mg/kg/day during pregnancy and lactation (59 times the MRHD on a mg/m2 basis). Roflumilast also decreased survival and forelimb grip reflex and delayed pinna detachment in mouse pups at a maternal oral dose of 12 mg/kg/day (116 times the MRHD on a mg/m2 basis).
8.2 Lactation
Risk Summary
There are no data on the presence of roflumilast or its metabolite in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production.
Roflumilast and/or its metabolites are excreted into the milk of lactating rats (see Data). When a drug is present in animal milk, it is likely that the drug will present in human milk. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother's clinical need for ZORYVE cream and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from ZORYVE cream or from the underlying maternal condition.
Clinical Considerations
To minimize potential exposure to the breastfed infant via breast milk, use ZORYVE cream on the smallest area of skin and for the shortest duration possible while breastfeeding. To avoid direct infant exposure, advise breastfeeding women not to apply ZORYVE cream directly to the nipple or areola. If applied to the patient's chest, avoid exposure via direct contact with the infant's skin.
8.4 Pediatric Use
The safety and effectiveness of ZORYVE cream for the treatment of plaque psoriasis have been established in pediatric patients 6 years of age and older. Use of ZORYVE cream in pediatric patients 6 to less than 18 years of age is supported by data from two 8-week, vehicle-controlled safety and efficacy trials which included 18 pediatric subjects 6 to 17 years of age, of whom 11 received ZORYVE cream. Use of ZORYVE cream in pediatric patients 12 to 17 years of age is also supported by data from open-label trials of 2 and 24 weeks duration which included 18 pediatric subjects 12 to 17 years of age treated with ZORYVE cream. Use of ZORYVE cream in pediatric patients 6 to less than 12 years of age is also supported by data from one 4-week, open-label, safety and pharmacokinetic (PK) study which included 20 pediatric subjects 6 to less than 12 years of age. The adverse reaction profile in subjects 6 to less than 18 years of age was consistent with that observed in adults [see Adverse Reactions (6.1), Clinical Pharmacology (12.3), Clinical Studies (14)].
The safety and effectiveness of ZORYVE cream in pediatric patients below the age of 6 years have not been established.
8.5 Geriatric Use
Of the 881 subjects with psoriasis exposed to ZORYVE cream or vehicle for up to 8 weeks in 2 controlled clinical trials, 106 were 65 years of age or older. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between these subjects and younger subjects. Other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the geriatric and younger patients, but greater sensitivity of some older individuals cannot be ruled out. Based on available data for roflumilast, no adjustment of dosage in geriatric patients is warranted [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].
8.6 Hepatic Impairment
Oral roflumilast 250 mcg once daily for 14 days was studied in subjects with hepatic impairment. The systemic exposure of roflumilast and roflumilast N-oxide were increased in subjects with moderate (Child-Pugh B) hepatic impairment. ZORYVE cream is contraindicated in patients with moderate to severe liver impairment (Child-Pugh B or C). No dosage adjustment is needed in patients with mild (Child-Pugh A) hepatic impairment [see Contraindications (4), Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].

12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
12.1 Mechanism of Action
Roflumilast and its active metabolite (roflumilast N-oxide) are inhibitors of PDE4. Roflumilast and roflumilast N-oxide inhibition of PDE4 (a major cyclic 3',5'-adenosine monophosphate (cyclic AMP) metabolizing enzyme) activity leads to accumulation of intracellular cyclic AMP. The specific mechanism(s) by which roflumilast exerts its therapeutic action is not well defined.
12.2 Pharmacodynamics
Pharmacodynamics of ZORYVE cream in the treatment of plaque psoriasis is unknown.
12.3 Pharmacokinetics
Absorption
The PK of ZORYVE cream was investigated in 18 adult and 6 adolescent (13 to 16 years of age) subjects with plaque psoriasis and a mean ± SD body surface area (BSA) involvement of 26.8 ± 6.80% and 13.0 ± 3.58% in adults and adolescents, respectively. In this study, on average, subjects applied 3 to 6.5 g of ZORYVE cream once daily for 15 days. Plasma concentrations of roflumilast and roflumilast N-oxide (see Metabolism) were quantifiable in all but two subjects at Day 15. Following application of ZORYVE cream, the plasma concentration versus time profile was relatively flat, generally with a peak-to-trough ratio less than 2. In adults, the mean ± SD systemic exposure (AUC0-24) was 72.7 ± 53.1 and 628 ± 648 h∙ng/mL for roflumilast and the N-oxide metabolite, respectively. In adolescents, the mean ± SD AUC0-24 was 25.1 ± 24.0 and 140 ± 179 h∙ng/mL for roflumilast and the N-oxide metabolite, respectively.
The PK of ZORYVE cream was investigated in 10 pediatric subjects (6 to less than 12 years of age) with at least mild plaque psoriasis and a mean ± SD BSA involvement of 10.9 ± 6.56%. The 14-day mean ± SD extrapolated AUC0-24 was 75.6 ± 87.3 and 693 ± 986 h∙ng/mL for roflumilast and the N-oxide metabolite, respectively. In another study, the PK of ZORYVE cream was investigated in 9 pediatric subjects (2 to less than 6 years of age) with at least mild plaque psoriasis and a mean ± SD BSA involvement of 9.44 ± 5.57%. The 14-day mean ± SD extrapolated AUC0-24 was 51.6 ± 29.9 and 539 ± 372 h∙ng/mL for roflumilast and the N-oxide metabolite, respectively.
Distribution
Plasma protein binding of roflumilast and its N-oxide metabolite is approximately 99% and 97%, respectively.
Elimination
The plasma clearance after short-term intravenous infusion of roflumilast is on average about 9.6 L/h. Following topical administration, the half-lives of roflumilast and the N-oxide metabolite were 4.0 and 4.6 days, respectively.
Metabolism
Roflumilast is extensively metabolized via Phase I (cytochrome P450) and Phase II (conjugation) reactions. The N-oxide metabolite is the only major metabolite observed in the plasma of humans. Following oral administration, roflumilast and roflumilast N-oxide account for the majority (87.5%) of total dose administered in plasma. Roflumilast was not detectable in urine, while roflumilast N-oxide was only a trace metabolite (less than 1%). Other conjugated metabolites such as roflumilast N-oxide glucuronide and 4-amino-3,5-dichloropyridine N-oxide were detected in urine.
While roflumilast is 3 times more potent than roflumilast N-oxide at inhibition of the PDE4 enzyme in vitro, the plasma AUC of roflumilast N-oxide on average is approximately 8-fold greater than the plasma AUC of roflumilast following topical administration. A similar ratio was observed following intravenous administration, whereas following oral administration the N-oxide metabolite circulated on average about 10-fold higher than the parent drug.
Specific Populations
Following topical administration, no clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of roflumilast and roflumilast N-oxide were observed based on age (2 to 88 years), sex, race, or ethnicity.
Patients with Hepatic Impairment
No studies were conducted with topical roflumilast in subjects with hepatic impairment; however, oral roflumilast 250 mcg once daily for 14 days was studied in subjects with mild to moderate hepatic impairment classified as Child-Pugh A and B (8 subjects in each group). The AUC of roflumilast and roflumilast N-oxide were increased by 51% and 24%, respectively, in Child-Pugh A subjects and by 92% and 41%, respectively, in Child-Pugh B subjects, as compared to age-, weight-, and gender-matched healthy subjects. The Cmax of roflumilast and roflumilast N-oxide were increased by 3% and 26%, respectively, in Child-Pugh A subjects and by 26% and 40%, respectively, in Child-Pugh B subjects, as compared to healthy subjects [see Contraindications (4)].
Patients with Renal Impairment
No studies were conducted with topical roflumilast in subjects with renal impairment. Following oral administration in 12 subjects with severe renal impairment, no clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of roflumilast and roflumilast N-oxide were observed.
Drug Interaction Studies
Clinical Studies
Since a major step in roflumilast metabolism is the N-oxidation of roflumilast to roflumilast N-oxide by CYP3A4 and CYP1A2, drug interaction studies were performed with oral roflumilast and systemic inhibitors of CYP3A4 and CYP1A2 [see Drug Interactions (7)].
Erythromycin: In an open-label crossover study in 16 healthy volunteers, the co-administration of CYP3A4 inhibitor erythromycin (500 mg 3 times daily for 13 days) with a single oral dose of 500 mcg roflumilast resulted in 40% and 70% increase in Cmax and AUC for roflumilast, respectively, and a 34% decrease and a 4% increase in Cmax and AUC for roflumilast N-oxide, respectively.
Ketoconazole: In an open-label crossover study in 16 healthy volunteers, the co-administration of a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor ketoconazole (200 mg twice daily for 13 days) with a single oral dose of 500 mcg roflumilast resulted in 23% and 99% increase in Cmax and AUC for roflumilast, respectively, and a 38% reduction and 3% increase in Cmax and AUC for roflumilast N-oxide, respectively.
Fluvoxamine: In an open-label crossover study in 16 healthy volunteers, the co-administration of dual CYP 3A4/1A2 inhibitor fluvoxamine (50 mg daily for 14 days) with a single oral dose of 500 mcg roflumilast showed a 12% and 156% increase in roflumilast Cmax and AUC along with a 210% decrease and 52% increase in roflumilast N-oxide Cmax and AUC, respectively.
Enoxacin: In an open-label crossover study in 16 healthy volunteers, the co-administration of dual CYP 3A4/1A2 inhibitor enoxacin (400 mg twice daily for 12 days) with a single oral dose of 500 mcg roflumilast resulted in an increased Cmax and AUC of roflumilast by 20% and 56%, respectively. Roflumilast N-oxide Cmax was decreased by 14% while roflumilast N-oxide AUC was increased by 23%.
Cimetidine: In an open-label crossover study in 16 healthy volunteers, the co-administration of a dual CYP 3A4/1A2 inhibitor cimetidine (400 mg twice daily for 7 days) with a single oral dose of 500 mcg roflumilast resulted in a 46% and 85% increase in roflumilast Cmax and AUC; and a 4% decrease in Cmax and 27% increase in AUC for roflumilast N-oxide, respectively.
In Vitro Studies
Cytochrome P450 (CYP) Enzymes: In vitro studies suggest that the biotransformation of roflumilast to its N-oxide metabolite is mediated by CYP1A2 and 3A4. Based on further in vitro results in human liver microsomes, roflumilast and roflumilast N-oxide in therapeutic plasma concentrations do not inhibit CYP1A2, 2A6, 2B6, 2C8, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, 2E1, 3A4/5, or 4A9/11; therefore, there is a low probability of relevant interactions with substances metabolized by these P450 enzymes. In addition, in vitro studies demonstrated no induction of the CYP1A2, 2A6, 2C9, 2C19, or 3A4/5 and only a weak induction of CYP2B6 by roflumilast.

13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY
13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility
Long-term studies were conducted in hamsters and mice with roflumilast to evaluate its carcinogenic potential. In 2-year oral gavage carcinogenicity studies, roflumilast treatment resulted in dose-related, statistically significant increases in the incidence of undifferentiated carcinomas of nasal epithelium in hamsters at doses greater than or equal to 8 mg/kg/day (12 times the MRHD on an AUC basis). The tumorigenicity of roflumilast appears to be attributed to a reactive metabolite of 4-amino-3,5-dichloropyridine N-oxide (ADCP N-oxide). No evidence of tumorigenicity was observed in mice at roflumilast oral doses up to 12 and 18 mg/kg/day in females and males, respectively (11 and 17 times the MRHD, respectively, on an AUC basis).
In a 2-year dermal mouse carcinogenicity study, no evidence of carcinogenicity was observed at topical doses of roflumilast cream up to 1% applied at 2 mL/kg/day (4 times the MRHD on an AUC basis).
Roflumilast tested positive in an in vivo mouse micronucleus test, but negative in the following assays: the Ames test, an in vitro chromosome aberration assay in human lymphocytes, an in vitro HPRT assay with V79 cells, an in vitro micronucleus test with V79 cells, a DNA adduct formation assay in rat nasal mucosa, liver, and testes, and an in vivo mouse bone marrow chromosome aberration assay. Roflumilast N-oxide was negative in the Ames test and an in vitro micronucleus test with V79 cells.
In a human spermatogenesis study, oral roflumilast 500 mcg had no effects on semen parameters or reproductive hormones during the 3-month treatment period and the following 3-month off-treatment period. In a fertility study, oral roflumilast decreased fertility rates in male rats at 1.8 mg/kg/day (35 times the MRHD on a mg/m2 basis). The male rats also showed increases in the incidence of tubular atrophy, degeneration in the testis, and spermiogenic granuloma in the epididymides. No effect on rat fertility rate or male reproductive organ morphology was observed at 0.6 mg/kg/day (12 times the MRHD on a mg/m2 basis). In a female fertility study, no effect on fertility was observed up to the highest roflumilast dose of 1.5 mg/kg/day in rats (29 times the MRHD on a mg/m2 basis).

14 CLINICAL STUDIES
Two multicenter, randomized, double-blind, vehicle-controlled trials (DERMIS-1 [NCT04211363] and DERMIS-2 [NCT04211389]) enrolled a total of 881 adult and pediatric subjects with mild to severe plaque psoriasis. Subjects were randomized 2:1 to receive ZORYVE cream or vehicle cream applied topically once daily for 8 weeks. The median age of the trial population was 47 years (range 6 to 88 years of age). The trial population was 64% male and 36% female; 82.3% were White, 7.1% Asian, 3.6% Black or African American, 0.9% Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander, 0.7% American Indian or Alaska Native, 0.5% more than one race, 3.3% Other, and missing in 1.6% of subjects. For ethnicity, 75.7% of subjects identified as Not Hispanic or Latino, 24.1% identified as Hispanic or Latino, and 0.2% were unknown. The median body surface area (BSA) affected of the trial population was 5.5% (range 2% to 20%). At baseline, 16% of subjects had an Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) score of 2 (mild), 76% had an IGA score of 3 (moderate), and 8% had an IGA score of 4 (severe). One hundred seventy-nine (20%) subjects had a baseline intertriginous IGA (I-IGA) score of 2 or higher (mild), and 678 (77%) subjects had a baseline Worst Itch-Numeric Rating Scale (WI-NRS) score of 4 or higher on a scale of 0 to 10.
The primary endpoint was the proportion of subjects who achieved IGA treatment success at Week 8 (Table 2). Success was defined as a score of "Clear" (0) or "Almost Clear" (1), plus a 2-grade improvement from baseline.
