INDICATIONS AND USAGE
Rebinyn ® , Coagulation Factor IX (Recombinant),
GlycoPEGylated, is a recombinant DNA derived coagulation
Factor IX concentrate indicated for use in adults and
children with hemophilia B for on demand treatment
and control of bleeding episodes and perioperative
management of bleeding.
Limitations of Use: Rebinyn ® is not indicated for routine
prophylaxis or for immune tolerance induction in patients
with hemophilia B.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Contraindications
• Rebinyn ® is contraindicated in patients with a known
hypersensitivity to Rebinyn ® or its components, including
hamster proteins.
Warnings and Precautions
• Hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, may
occur. Signs may include angioedema, chest tightness,
difficulty breathing, wheezing, urticaria, and itching.
Discontinue Rebinyn ® if allergic or anaphylactic-type
reactions occur and initiate appropriate treatment.
• Development of neutralizing antibodies (inhibitors) to
Factor IX may occur. Monitor patients for development of
factor IX inhibitors if bleeding is not controlled with the
recommended dose of Rebinyn ® or if expected Factor IX
activity plasma levels are not attained. Factor IX activity
assay results may vary with the type of activated partial
thromboplastin time reagent used.
• The use of Factor IX-containing products has been
associated with thrombotic complications. Monitor
for thrombotic and consumptive coagulopathy when
administering Rebinyn ® to patients with liver disease,
post-operatively, to newborn infants, or to patients at risk of
thrombosis or disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC).
• Nephrotic syndrome has been reported following
immune tolerance induction therapy with Factor IX
products in hemophilia B patients with Factor IX
inhibitors, often with a history of allergic reactions to
Factor IX. The safety and efficacy of using Rebinyn ® for
immune tolerance induction have not been established.
Adverse Reactions
• The most common adverse reactions reported in clinical
trials (≥1%) were itching and injection site reactions.
• Animals administered repeat doses of Rebinyn ® showed
accumulation of PEG in the choroid plexus. The potential
clinical implications of these animal findings are unknown.
