Adults The information below is derived from an integrated clinical study database for lurasidone hydrochloride consisting of 3799 adult patients exposed to one or more doses of lurasidone hydrochloride for the treatment of schizophrenia, and bipolar depression in placebo-controlled studies. This experience corresponds with a total experience of 1250.9 patient-years. A total of 1106 lurasidone hydrochloride-treated patients had at least 24 weeks and 371 lurasidone hydrochloride -treated patients had at least 52 weeks of exposure. Adverse events during exposure to study treatment were obtained by general inquiry and voluntarily reported adverse experiences, as well as results from physical examinations, vital signs, ECGs, weights and laboratory investigations. Adverse experiences were recorded by clinical investigators using their own terminology. In order to provide a meaningful estimate of the proportion of individuals experiencing adverse events, events were grouped in standardized categories using MedDRA terminology. Schizophrenia The following findings are based on the short-term, placebo-controlled premarketing adult studies for schizophrenia in which lurasidone hydrochloride was administered at daily doses ranging from 20 to 160 mg (n=1508). Commonly Observed Adverse Reactions : The most common adverse reactions (incidence ≥ 5% and at least twice the rate of placebo) in patients treated with lurasidone hydrochloride were somnolence, akathisia, extrapyramidal symptoms, and nausea. Adverse Reactions Associated with Discontinuation of Treatment: A total of 9.5% (143/1508) lurasidone hydrochloride-treated patients and 9.3% (66/708) of placebo-treated patients discontinued due to adverse reactions. There were no adverse reactions associated with discontinuation in subjects treated with lurasidone hydrochloride that were at least 2% and at least twice the placebo rate. Adverse Reactions Occurring at an Incidence of 2% or More in Lurasidone Hydrochloride-Treated Patients: Adverse reactions associated with the use of lurasidone hydrochloride (incidence of 2% or greater, rounded to the nearest percent and lurasidone hydrochloride incidence greater than placebo) that occurred during acute therapy (up to 6 weeks in patients with schizophrenia) are shown in Table 19.

Pediatric Patients (10 to 17 years): The mean change from baseline for lurasidone hydrochloride - treated pediatric patients 10 to 17 years with bipolar depression for the SAS, BAS and AIMS was comparable to placebo-treated patients. The percentage of patients who shifted from normal to abnormal was greater lurasidone hydrochloride-treated patients and placebo for the BAS (lurasidone hydrochloride, 4.6%; placebo, 2.4%), the SAS (lurasidone hydrochloride, 0.6%; placebo, 0%) and was the same for the AIMS (lurasidone hydrochloride, 0%; placebo, 0%). Dystonia: Class Effect: Symptoms of dystonia, prolonged abnormal contractions of muscle groups, may occur in susceptible individuals during the first few days of treatment. Dystonic symptoms include: spasm of the neck muscles, sometimes progressing to tightness of the throat, swallowing difficulty, difficulty breathing, and/or protrusion of the tongue. While these symptoms can occur at low doses, they occur more frequently and with greater severity with high potency and at higher doses of first-generation antipsychotic drugs. An elevated risk of acute dystonia is observed in males and younger age groups. Schizophrenia: Adults In the short-term, placebo-controlled schizophrenia clinical studies, dystonia occurred in 4.2% of lurasidone hydrochloride-treated subjects (0.0% lurasidone hydrochloride 20 mg, 3.5% lurasidone hydrochloride 40 mg, 4.5% lurasidone hydrochloride 80 mg, 6.5% lurasidone hydrochloride 120 mg and 2.5% lurasidone hydrochloride 160 mg) compared to 0.8% of subjects receiving placebo. Seven subjects (0.5%, 7/1508) discontinued clinical trials due to dystonic events – four were receiving lurasidone hydrochloride 80 mg/day and three were receiving lurasidone hydrochloride 120 mg/day. Adolescents In the short-term, placebo-controlled, adolescent schizophrenia study, dystonia occurred in 1% of lurasidone hydrochloride-treated patients (1% lurasidone hydrochloride 40 mg and 1% Lurasidone hydrochloride 80 mg) compared to 0% of patients receiving placebo. No patients discontinued the clinical study due to dystonic events. Bipolar Depression: Adults Monotherapy In the adult short-term, flexible-dose, placebo-controlled monotherapy bipolar depression study, dystonia occurred in 0.9% of lurasidone hydrochloride-treated subjects (0.0% and 1.8% for lurasidone hydrochloride 20 to 60 mg/day and lurasidone hydrochloride 80 to 120 mg/day, respectively) compared to 0.0% of subjects receiving placebo. No subject discontinued the clinical study due to dystonic events. Adjunctive Therapy with Lithium or Valproate In the adult short-term, flexible-dose, placebo-controlled adjunctive therapy bipolar depression studies, dystonia occurred in 1.1% of lurasidone hydrochloride-treated subjects (20 to 120 mg) compared to 0.6% of subjects receiving placebo. No subject discontinued the clinical study due to dystonic events. Pediatric Patients (10 to 17 years): In the 6-week, placebo-controlled bipolar depression study in pediatric patients 10 to 17 years, dystonia occurred in 0.6% of lurasidone hydrochloride-treated patients compared to 1.2% of patients receiving placebo. No patients discontinued the clinical study due to dystonic events. Other Adverse Reactions Observed During the Premarketing Evaluation of Lurasidone Hydrochloride: Following is a list of adverse reactions reported by adult patients treated with lurasidone hydrochloride at multiple doses of ≥ 20 mg once daily within the premarketing database of 2905 patients with schizophrenia. The reactions listed are those that could be of clinical importance, as well as reactions that are plausibly drug-related on pharmacologic or other grounds.

Moderate and Severe Hepatic Impairment: Recommended starting dose is 20 mg per day. The maximum recommended dose is 80 mg per day in moderate hepatic impairment and 40 mg per day in severe hepatic impairment ( 2.5 , 8.7 ). Concomitant Use of a Moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor (e.g., diltiazem): Lurasidone hydrochloride tablets dose should be reduced to half of the original dose level. Recommended starting dose is 20 mg per day. Maximum recommended dose is 80 mg per day ( 2.6 , 7.1 ). Concomitant Use of a Moderate CYP3A4 Inducer: It may be necessary to increase the dose of lurasidone hydrochloride tablets ( 2.6 , 7.1 ). 2.1 Schizophrenia Adults The recommended starting dose of Lurasidone hydrochloride tablets is 40 mg once daily. Initial dose titration is not required. Lurasidone hydrochloride tablets have been shown to be effective in a dose range of 40 mg per day to 160 mg per day [see Clinical Studies ( 14.1 )] . The maximum recommended dose is 160 mg per day. Adolescents (13 to 17 years) The recommended starting dose of Lurasidone hydrochloride tablets is 40 mg once daily. Initial dose titration is not required. Lurasidone hydrochloride tablets has been shown to be effective in a dose range of 40 mg per day to 80 mg per day [see Clinical Studies ( 14.1 )]. The maximum recommended dose is 80 mg per day. 2.2 Depressive Episodes Associated with Bipolar I Disorder Adults The recommended starting dose of Lurasidone hydrochloride tablets are 20 mg given once daily as monotherapy or as adjunctive therapy with lithium or valproate. Initial dose titration is not required. Lurasidone hydrochloride tablets have been shown to be effective in a dose range of 20 mg per day to 120 mg per day as monotherapy or as adjunctive therapy with lithium or valproate [see Clinical Studies ( 14.2 )] . The maximum recommended dose, as monotherapy or as adjunctive therapy with lithium or valproate, is 120 mg per day. In the monotherapy study, the higher dose range (80 mg to 120 mg per day) did not provide additional efficacy, on average, compared to the lower dose range (20 to 60 mg per day) [see Clinical Studies ( 14.2 )] . Pediatric Patients (10 to 17 years) The recommended starting dose of Lurasidone hydrochloride tablets is 20 mg given once daily as monotherapy. Initial dose titration is not required. The dose may be increased after one week based on clinical response. Lurasidone hydrochloride tablets has been shown to be effective in a dose range of 20 mg per day to 80 mg per day as monotherapy. At the end of the clinical study, most of the patients (67%) received 20 mg or 40 mg once daily [see Clinical Studies ( 14.2 )]. The maximum recommended dose is 80 mg per day. The efficacy of lurasidone hydrochloride tablets in the treatment of mania associated with bipolar disorder has not been established. 2.3 Administration Information Lurasidone hydrochloride tablets should be taken with food (at least 350 calories). Administration with food substantially increases the absorption of lurasidone hydrochloride. Administration with food increases the AUC approximately 2-fold and increases the Cmax approximately 3-fold. In the clinical studies, lurasidone hydrochloride tablets were administered with food [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] . The effectiveness of lurasidone hydrochloride tablets for longer-term use, that is, for more than 6 weeks, has not been established in controlled studies. Therefore, the physician who elects to use lurasidone hydrochloride tablets for extended periods should periodically re-evaluate the long-term usefulness of the drug for the individual patient [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.1 and 2.2 )] . 2.4 Dose Modifications for Renal Impairment Dose adjustment is recommended in moderate (creatinine clearance: 30 to <50 mL/min) and severe renal impairment (creatinine clearance <30 mL/min) patients. The recommended starting dose is 20 mg per day. The dose in these patients should not exceed 80 mg per day [see Use in Specific Populations ( 8.6 )]. 2.5 Dose Modifications for Hepatic Impairment Dose adjustment is recommended in moderate (Child-Pugh Score = 7 to 9) and severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh Score = 10 to 15) patients. The recommended starting dose is 20 mg per day. The dose in moderate hepatic impairment patients should not exceed 80 mg per day and the dose in severe hepatic impairment patients should not exceed 40 per mg/day [see Use in Specific Populations ( 8.7 )]. 2.6 Dose Modifications Due to Drug Interactions of CYP3A4 Inhibitors and CYP3A4 Inducers Concomitant Use with CYP3A4 Inhibitors Lurasidone hydrochloride tablets should not be used concomitantly with a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor (e.g., ketoconazole, clarithromycin, ritonavir, voriconazole, mibefradil, etc.) [see Contraindications ( 4 )] . If lurasidone hydrochloride tablets are being prescribed and a moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor (e.g. diltiazem, atazanavir, erythromycin, fluconazole, verapamil etc.) is added to the therapy, the lurasidone hydrochloride tablets dose should be reduced to half of the original dose level. Similarly, if a moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor is being prescribed and lurasidone hydrochloride is added to the therapy, the recommended starting dose of lurasidone hydrochloride tablets is 20 mg per day, and the maximum recommended dose of lurasidone hydrochloride tablets is 80 mg per day [see Contraindications ( 4 ), Drug Interactions ( 7.1 )] . Grapefruit and grapefruit juice should be avoided in patients taking lurasidone hydrochloride tablets, since these may inhibit CYP3A4 and alter lurasidone hydrochloride tablets concentrations [ see Drug Interactions ( 7.1 ) ]. Concomitant Use with CYP3A4 Inducers Lurasidone hydrochloride tablets should not be used concomitantly with a strong CYP3A4 inducer (e.g., rifampin, avasimibe, St. John's wort, phenytoin, carbamazepine, etc.) [see Contraindications ( 4 ); Drug Interactions ( 7.1 )] . If lurasidone hydrochloride tablets are used concomitantly with a moderate CYP3A4 inducer, it may be necessary to increase the lurasidone hydrochloride tablets dose after chronic treatment (7 days or more) with the CYP3A4 inducer.

Monotherapy treatment of adult and pediatric patients (10 to 17 years) with major depressive episode associated with bipolar I disorder (bipolar depression) [see Clinical Studies ( 14.2 )] . Adjunctive treatment with lithium or valproate in adult patients with major depressive episode associated with bipolar I disorder (bipolar depression) [see Clinical Studies ( 14.2 )] . Lurasidone hydrochloride is an atypical antipsychotic indicated for the treatment of: Schizophrenia in adults and adolescents (13 to 17 years) ( 1 , 14.1 ) Depressive episode associated with Bipolar I Disorder (bipolar depression) in adults and pediatric patients (10 to 17 years) as monotherapy ( 1 , 14.2 ) Depressive episode associated with Bipolar I Disorder (bipolar depression) in adults as adjunctive therapy with lithium or valproate ( 1 , 14.2 )

Abuse

9.2 Abuse Lurasidone hydrochloride has not been systematically studied in humans for its potential for abuse or physical dependence or its ability to induce tolerance. While clinical studies with lurasidone hydrochloride did not reveal any tendency for drug-seeking behavior, these observations were not systematic and it is not possible to predict the extent to which a CNS-active drug will be misused, diverted and/or abused once it is marketed. Patients should be evaluated carefully for a history of drug abuse, and such patients should be observed carefully for signs of lurasidone hydrochloride misuse or abuse (e.g., development of tolerance, drug-seeking behavior, increases in dose).

Controlled Substance

9.1 Controlled Substance Lurasidone hydrochloride is not a controlled substance.

Drug Abuse And Dependence

9 DRUG ABUSE AND DEPENDENCE 9.1 Controlled Substance Lurasidone hydrochloride is not a controlled substance. 9.2 Abuse Lurasidone hydrochloride has not been systematically studied in humans for its potential for abuse or physical dependence or its ability to induce tolerance. While clinical studies with lurasidone hydrochloride did not reveal any tendency for drug-seeking behavior, these observations were not systematic and it is not possible to predict the extent to which a CNS-active drug will be misused, diverted and/or abused once it is marketed. Patients should be evaluated carefully for a history of drug abuse, and such patients should be observed carefully for signs of lurasidone hydrochloride misuse or abuse (e.g., development of tolerance, drug-seeking behavior, increases in dose).

Overdosage

10 OVERDOSAGE 10.1 Human Experience In premarketing clinical studies, accidental or intentional overdosage of lurasidone hydrochloride was identified in one patient who ingested an estimated 560 mg of lurasidone hydrochloride. This patient recovered without sequelae. This patient resumed lurasidone hydrochloride treatment for an additional two months. 10.2 Management of Overdosage No specific antidotes for lurasidone hydrochloride are known. In managing overdose, provide supportive care, including close medical supervision and monitoring, and consider the possibility of multiple drug involvement. If an overdose occurs, consult a Certified Poison Control Center (1-800-222-1222 or www.poison.org). Cardiovascular monitoring should commence immediately, including continuous electrocardiographic monitoring for possible arrhythmias. If antiarrhythmic therapy is administered, disopyramide, procainamide, and quinidine carry a theoretical hazard of additive QT-prolonging effects when administered in patients with an acute overdose of lurasidone hydrochloride. Similarly, the alpha-blocking properties of bretylium might be additive to those of lurasidone hydrochloride, resulting in problematic hypotension. Hypotension and circulatory collapse should be treated with appropriate measures. Epinephrine and dopamine should not be used, or other sympathomimetics with beta-agonist activity, since beta stimulation may worsen hypotension in the setting of lurasidone hydrochloride-induced alpha blockade. In case of severe extrapyramidal symptoms, anticholinergic medication should be administered. Gastric lavage (after intubation if patient is unconscious) and administration of activated charcoal together with a laxative should be considered. The possibility of obtundation, seizures, or dystonic reaction of the head and neck following overdose may create a risk of aspiration with induced emesis.

Clinical Pharmacology

12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY 12.1 Mechanism of Action The mechanism of action of lurasidone in the treatment of schizophrenia and bipolar depression is unclear. However, its efficacy in schizophrenia and bipolar depression could be mediated through a combination of central dopamine D 2 and serotonin Type 2 (5HT 2A ) receptor antagonism. 12.2 Pharmacodynamics Lurasidone is an antagonist with high affinity binding at the dopamine D 2 receptors (Ki of 1 nM) and the serotonin 5-HT 2A (Ki of 0.5 nM) and 5-HT 7 (Ki of 0.5 nM) receptors. It also binds with moderate affinity to the human α 2C adrenergic receptors (Ki of 11 nM), is a partial agonist at serotonin 5-HT1A (Ki of 6.4 nM) receptors, and is an antagonist at the α 2A adrenergic receptors (Ki of 41 nM). Lurasidone exhibits little or no affinity for histamine H1 and muscarinic M 1 receptors (IC 5 0 > 1,000 nM). ECG Changes The effects of lurasidone hydrochloride on the QTc interval were evaluated in a randomized, double-blind, multiple-dose, parallel-dedicated thorough QT study in 43 patients with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder, who were treated with lurasidone hydrochloride doses of 120 mg daily, 600 mg daily and completed the study. The maximum mean (upper 1-sided, 95% CI) increase in baseline-adjusted QTc intervals based on individual correction method (QTcI) was 7.5 (11.7) ms and 4.6 (9.5) ms, for the 120 mg and 600 mg dose groups respectively, observed at 2 to 4 hours after dosing. In this study, there was no apparent dose (exposure)-response relationship. In short-term, placebo-controlled studies in schizophrenia and bipolar depression, no post- baseline QT prolongations exceeding 500 msec were reported in patients treated with lurasidone hydrochloride or placebo. 12.3 Pharmacokinetics Adults The activity of lurasidone hydrochloride is primarily due to the parent drug. The pharmacokinetics of lurasidone hydrochloride is dose-proportional within a total daily dose range of 20 mg to 160 mg. Steady-state concentrations of lurasidone hydrochloride are reached within 7 days of starting lurasidone hydrochloride. Following administration of 40 mg of lurasidone hydrochloride, the mean (%CV) elimination half-life was 18 (7) hours. Absorption and Distribution: Lurasidone hydrochloride is absorbed and reaches peak serum concentrations in approximately 1to 3 hours. It is estimated that 9 to 19% of an administered dose is absorbed. Following administration of 40 mg of lurasidone hydrochloride, the mean (%CV) apparent volume of distribution was 6173 (17.2) L. Lurasidone hydrochloride is highly bound (~99%) to serum proteins. In a food effect study, lurasidone hydrochloride mean C max and AUC were about 3-times and 2-times, respectively, when administered with food compared to the levels observed under fasting conditions. Lurasidone hydrochloride exposure was not affected as meal size was increased from 350 to 1000 calories and was independent of meal fat content [ see Dosage and Administration ( 2.3 )] . In clinical studies, establishing the safety and efficacy of lurasidone hydrochloride, patients were instructed to take their daily dose with food [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.3 )] . Metabolism and Elimination: Lurasidone hydrochloride is metabolized mainly via CYP3A4. The major biotransformation pathways are oxidative N -dealkylation, hydroxylation of norbornane ring, and S -oxidation. Lurasidone hydrochloride is metabolized into two active metabolites (ID-14283 and ID-14326) and two major non-active metabolites (ID-20219 and ID-20220). Based on in vitro studies, lurasidone hydrochloride is not a substrate of CYP1A1, CYP1A2, CYP2A6, CYP4A11, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6 or CYP2E1 enzymes. Because lurasidone hydrochloride is not a substrate for CYP1A2, smoking is not expected to have an effect on the pharmacokinetics of lurasidone hydrochloride. Transporter proteins: In vitro studies suggest lurasidone hydrochloride is not a substrate of OATP1B1 or OATP1B3, however, is probably a substrate of P-gp and BCRP. In vitro studies indicate that lurasidone hydrochloride is not expected to inhibit transporters OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OCT1, OCT2, OAT1, OAT3, MATE1, MATE2-K and BSEP at clinically relevant concentrations. Lurasidone hydrochloride is not a clinically significant inhibitor of P-gp. However, it may inhibit BCRP. Total excretion of radioactivity in urine and feces combined was approximately 89%, with about 80% recovered in feces and 9% recovered in urine, after a single dose of [ 14 C]-labeled lurasidone hydrochloride. Following administration of 40 mg of lurasidone hydrochloride, the mean (%CV) apparent clearance was 3902 (18.0) mL/min. Drug Interaction Studies Effects of other drugs on the exposure of lurasidone are summarized in Figure 5. A population PK analyses concluded that coadministration of lithium 300 to 2400 mg/day or valproate 300 to 2000 mg/day with lurasidone for up to 6 weeks has minimal effect on lurasidone exposure. And the effects of lurasidone hydrochloride on the exposures of other drugs are summarized in Figure 2.

Mechanism Of Action

12.1 Mechanism of Action The mechanism of action of lurasidone in the treatment of schizophrenia and bipolar depression is unclear. However, its efficacy in schizophrenia and bipolar depression could be mediated through a combination of central dopamine D 2 and serotonin Type 2 (5HT 2A ) receptor antagonism.

Pharmacodynamics

12.2 Pharmacodynamics Lurasidone is an antagonist with high affinity binding at the dopamine D 2 receptors (Ki of 1 nM) and the serotonin 5-HT 2A (Ki of 0.5 nM) and 5-HT 7 (Ki of 0.5 nM) receptors. It also binds with moderate affinity to the human α 2C adrenergic receptors (Ki of 11 nM), is a partial agonist at serotonin 5-HT1A (Ki of 6.4 nM) receptors, and is an antagonist at the α 2A adrenergic receptors (Ki of 41 nM). Lurasidone exhibits little or no affinity for histamine H1 and muscarinic M 1 receptors (IC 5 0 > 1,000 nM). ECG Changes The effects of lurasidone hydrochloride on the QTc interval were evaluated in a randomized, double-blind, multiple-dose, parallel-dedicated thorough QT study in 43 patients with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder, who were treated with lurasidone hydrochloride doses of 120 mg daily, 600 mg daily and completed the study. The maximum mean (upper 1-sided, 95% CI) increase in baseline-adjusted QTc intervals based on individual correction method (QTcI) was 7.5 (11.7) ms and 4.6 (9.5) ms, for the 120 mg and 600 mg dose groups respectively, observed at 2 to 4 hours after dosing. In this study, there was no apparent dose (exposure)-response relationship. In short-term, placebo-controlled studies in schizophrenia and bipolar depression, no post- baseline QT prolongations exceeding 500 msec were reported in patients treated with lurasidone hydrochloride or placebo.

Pharmacokinetics

12.3 Pharmacokinetics Adults The activity of lurasidone hydrochloride is primarily due to the parent drug. The pharmacokinetics of lurasidone hydrochloride is dose-proportional within a total daily dose range of 20 mg to 160 mg. Steady-state concentrations of lurasidone hydrochloride are reached within 7 days of starting lurasidone hydrochloride. Following administration of 40 mg of lurasidone hydrochloride, the mean (%CV) elimination half-life was 18 (7) hours. Absorption and Distribution: Lurasidone hydrochloride is absorbed and reaches peak serum concentrations in approximately 1to 3 hours. It is estimated that 9 to 19% of an administered dose is absorbed. Following administration of 40 mg of lurasidone hydrochloride, the mean (%CV) apparent volume of distribution was 6173 (17.2) L. Lurasidone hydrochloride is highly bound (~99%) to serum proteins. In a food effect study, lurasidone hydrochloride mean C max and AUC were about 3-times and 2-times, respectively, when administered with food compared to the levels observed under fasting conditions. Lurasidone hydrochloride exposure was not affected as meal size was increased from 350 to 1000 calories and was independent of meal fat content [ see Dosage and Administration ( 2.3 )] . In clinical studies, establishing the safety and efficacy of lurasidone hydrochloride, patients were instructed to take their daily dose with food [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.3 )] . Metabolism and Elimination: Lurasidone hydrochloride is metabolized mainly via CYP3A4. The major biotransformation pathways are oxidative N -dealkylation, hydroxylation of norbornane ring, and S -oxidation. Lurasidone hydrochloride is metabolized into two active metabolites (ID-14283 and ID-14326) and two major non-active metabolites (ID-20219 and ID-20220). Based on in vitro studies, lurasidone hydrochloride is not a substrate of CYP1A1, CYP1A2, CYP2A6, CYP4A11, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6 or CYP2E1 enzymes. Because lurasidone hydrochloride is not a substrate for CYP1A2, smoking is not expected to have an effect on the pharmacokinetics of lurasidone hydrochloride. Transporter proteins: In vitro studies suggest lurasidone hydrochloride is not a substrate of OATP1B1 or OATP1B3, however, is probably a substrate of P-gp and BCRP. In vitro studies indicate that lurasidone hydrochloride is not expected to inhibit transporters OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OCT1, OCT2, OAT1, OAT3, MATE1, MATE2-K and BSEP at clinically relevant concentrations. Lurasidone hydrochloride is not a clinically significant inhibitor of P-gp. However, it may inhibit BCRP. Total excretion of radioactivity in urine and feces combined was approximately 89%, with about 80% recovered in feces and 9% recovered in urine, after a single dose of [ 14 C]-labeled lurasidone hydrochloride. Following administration of 40 mg of lurasidone hydrochloride, the mean (%CV) apparent clearance was 3902 (18.0) mL/min. Drug Interaction Studies Effects of other drugs on the exposure of lurasidone are summarized in Figure 5. A population PK analyses concluded that coadministration of lithium 300 to 2400 mg/day or valproate 300 to 2000 mg/day with lurasidone for up to 6 weeks has minimal effect on lurasidone exposure. And the effects of lurasidone hydrochloride on the exposures of other drugs are summarized in Figure 2. A population PK analyses concluded that coadministration of lurasidone has minimal effect on lithium and valproate exposure when it is coadministered with lithium 300 to 2400 mg/day or valproate 300 to 2000 mg/day.

Carcinogenesis And Mutagenesis And Impairment Of Fertility

13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility Carcinogenesis: Lurasidone increased incidences of malignant mammary gland tumors and pituitary gland adenomas in female mice orally dosed with 30, 100, 300, or 650 mg/kg/day. The lowest dose produced plasma levels (AUC) approximately equal to those in humans receiving the MRHD of 160 mg/day. No increases in tumors were seen in male mice up to the highest dose tested, which produced plasma levels (AUC) 14 times those in humans receiving the MRHD. Lurasidone increased the incidence of mammary gland carcinomas in female rats orally dosed at 12 and 36 mg/kg/day: the lowest dose; 3 mg/kg/day is the no-effect dose which produced plasma levels (AUC) 0.4 times those in humans receiving the MRHD. No increases in tumors were seen in male rats up to the highest dose tested, which produced plasma levels (AUC) 6 times those in humans receiving the MRHD. Proliferative and/or neoplastic changes in the mammary and pituitary glands of rodents have been observed following chronic administration of antipsychotic drugs and are considered to be prolactin-mediated. [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.7 )]. Mutagenesis: Lurasidone did not cause mutation or chromosomal aberration when tested in vitro and in vivo test battery . Lurasidone was negative in the Ames gene mutation test, the Chinese Hamster Lung (CHL) cells, and in the in vivo mouse bone marrow micronucleus test up to 2000 mg/kg which is 61 times the MRHD of 160 mg/day based on mg/m 2 body surface area. Impairment of Fertility: Estrus cycle irregularities were seen in rats orally administered lurasidone at 1.5, 15 and 150 mg/kg/day for 15 consecutive days prior to mating, during the mating period, and through gestation day 7. No effect was seen at the lowest dose of 0.1 mg/kg which is approximately 0.006 times the MRHD of 160 mg/day based on mg/m 2 . Fertility was reduced only at the highest dose, which was reversible after a 14 day drug-free period. The no- effect dose for reduced fertility was approximately equal to the MRHD based on mg/m 2 . Lurasidone had no effect on fertility in male rats treated orally for 64 consecutive days prior to mating and during the mating period at doses up to 9 times the MRHD based on m g/m 2 .

Clinical Studies

14 CLINICAL STUDIES 14.1 Schizophrenia Adults The efficacy of lurasidone hydrochloride for the treatment of schizophrenia was established in five short-term (6-week), placebo-controlled studies in adult patients (mean age of 38.4 years, range 18 to 72) who met DSM-IV criteria for schizophrenia. An active-control arm (olanzapine or quetiapine extended-release) was included in two studies to assess assay sensitivity. Several instruments were used for assessing psychiatric signs and symptoms in these studies: Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS), is a multi-item inventory of general psychopathology used to evaluate the effects of drug treatment in schizophrenia. PANSS total scores may range from 30 to 210. Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale derived (BPRSd), derived from the PANSS, is a multi-item inventory primarily focusing on positive symptoms of schizophrenia, whereas the PANSS includes a wider range of positive, negative and other symptoms of schizophrenia. The BPRSd consists of 18 items rated on a scale of 1 (not present) to 7 (severe). BPRSd scores may range from 18 to 126. The Clinical Global Impression severity scale (CGI-S) is a clinician-rated scale that measures the subject's current illness state on a 1- to 7-point scale. The endpoint associated with each instrument is change from baseline in the total score to the end of week 6. These changes are then compared to placebo changes for the drug and control groups. The results of the studies follow: Study 1: In a 6-week, placebo-controlled trial (N=145) involving two fixed doses of lurasidone hydrochloride (40 or 120 mg/day), both doses of lurasidone hydrochloride at Endpoint were superior to placebo on the BPRSd total score, and the CGI-S. Study 2: In a 6-week, placebo-controlled trial (N=180) involving a fixed dose of lurasidone hydrochloride (80 mg/day), lurasidone hydrochloride at Endpoint was superior to placebo on the BPRSd total score, and the CGI-S. Study 3: In a 6-week, placebo- and active-controlled trial (N=473) involving two fixed doses of lurasidone hydrochloride (40 or 120 mg/day) and an active control (olanzapine), both lurasidone hydrochloride doses and the active control at Endpoint were superior to placebo on the PANSS total score, and the CGI-S. Study 4: In a 6-week, placebo-controlled trial (N=489) involving three fixed doses of lurasidone hydrochloride (40, 80 or 120 mg/day), only the 80 mg/day dose of lurasidone hydrochloride at Endpoint was superior to placebo on the PANSS total score, and the CGI-S. Study 5: In a 6-week, placebo- and active-controlled trial (N=482) involving two fixed doses of lurasidone hydrochloride (80 or 160 mg/day) and an active control (quetiapine extended-release), both lurasidone hydrochloride doses and the active control at Endpoint were superior to placebo on the PANSS total score, and the CGI-S. Thus, the efficacy of lurasidone hydrochloride at doses of 40, 80, 120 and 160 mg/day has been established (Table 35).

Adolescents (13-17 years) The efficacy of lurasidone hydrochloride, was established in a 6-week, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of adolescents (13 to 17 years) who met DSM-IV-TR criteria for schizophrenia (N=326). Patients were randomized to one of two fixed-doses of Lurasidone hydrochloride (40 or 80 mg/day) or placebo. The primary rating instrument used to assess psychiatric signs and symptoms was the PANSS. The key secondary instrument was the CGI-S. For both dose groups, lurasidone hydrochloride was superior to placebo in reduction of PANSS and CGI-S scores at Week 6. On average, the 80 mg/day dose did not provide additional benefit compared to the 40 mg/day dose. The primary efficacy results are provided in Table 36.

Patients were randomized to one of two flexible-dose ranges of lurasidone hydrochloride (20 to 60 mg/day, or 80 to 120 mg/day) or placebo. The primary rating instrument used to assess depressive symptoms in this study was the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS), a 10-item clinician-rated scale with total scores ranging from 0 (no depressive features) to 60 (maximum score). The primary endpoint was the change from baseline in MADRS score at Week 6. The key secondary instrument was the Clinical Global Impression-Bipolar-Severity of Illness scale (CGI-BP-S), a clinician-rated scale that measures the subject's current illness state on a 7-point scale, where a higher score is associated with greater illness severity. For both dose groups, lurasidone hydrochloride was superior to placebo in reduction of MADRS and CGI-BP-S scores at Week 6. The primary efficacy results are provided in Table 37. The high dose range (80 to 120 mg per day) did not provide additional efficacy on average, compared to the low dose range (20 to 60 mg per day). Adjunctive Therapy with Lithium or Valproate The efficacy of lurasidone hydrochloride, as an adjunctive therapy with lithium or valproate, was established in a 6-week, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of adult patients (mean age of 41.7 years, range 18 to 72) who met DSM-IV-TR criteria for major depressive episodes associated with bipolar I disorder, with or without rapid cycling, and without psychotic features (N=340). Patients who remained symptomatic after treatment with lithium or valproate were randomized to flexibly dosed lurasidone hydrochloride 20 to 120 mg/day or placebo. The primary rating instrument used to assess depressive symptoms in this study was the MADRS. The primary endpoint was the change from baseline in MADRS score at Week 6. The key secondary instrument was the CGI-BP-S scale. Lurasidone hydrochloride was superior to placebo in reduction of MADRS and CGI-BP-S scores at Week 6, as an adjunctive therapy with lithium or valproate (Table 37).

Patients were randomized to flexibly dosed Lurasidone hydrochloride 20 to 80 mg/day or placebo. At the end of the clinical study, most patients (67%) received 20 mg/day or 40 mg/day. The primary rating scale used to assess depressive symptoms in this study was the Children's Depression Rating Scale, Revised (CDRS-R) total score. The CDRS-R is a 17-item clinicianrated scale with total scores ranging from 17 to 113. The primary endpoint was the change from baseline in CDRS-R score at Week 6. The key secondary endpoint was the change from baseline in CGIBP-S depression score. Lurasidone hydrochloride was superior to placebo in reduction of CDRS-R total score and CGIBP- S depression score at Week 6. The primary efficacy results are provided in Table 38.

Geriatric Use

8.5 Geriatric Use Clinical studies with lurasidone hydrochloride did not include sufficient numbers of patients aged 65 and older to determine whether or not they respond differently from younger patients. In elderly patients with psychosis (65 to 85), lurasidone hydrochloride concentrations (20 mg/day) were similar to those in young subjects. It is unknown whether dose adjustment is necessary on the basis of age alone. Elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis treated with lurasidone hydrochloride are at an increased risk of death compared to placebo. Lurasidone hydrochloride is not approved for the treatment of patients with dementia-related psychosis [see Boxed Warning, Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 , 5.3 )] .

Pediatric Use

8.4 Pediatric Use Schizophrenia The safety and effectiveness of lurasidone hydrochloride 40-mg/day and 80-mg/day for the treatment of schizophrenia in adolescents (13 to 17 years) was established in a 6-week, placebocontrolled clinical study in 326 adolescent patients [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.1 ), Adverse Reactions ( 6.1 ), and Clinical Studies ( 14.1 )]. The safety and effectiveness of lurasidone hydrochloride has not been established in pediatric patients less than 13 years of age with schizophrenia. Bipolar Depression The safety and effectiveness of lurasidone hydrochloride 20 to 80 mg/day for the treatment of bipolar depression in pediatric patients (10 to 17 years) was established in a 6-week, placebocontrolled clinical study in 347 pediatric patients [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.2 ), Adverse Reactions ( 6.1 ), and Clinical Studies ( 14.2 )]. The safety and effectiveness of lurasidone hydrochloride has not been established in pediatric patients less than 10 years of age with bipolar depression. Irritability Associated with Autistic Disorder The effectiveness of lurasidone hydrochloride in pediatric patients for the treatment of irritability associated with autistic disorder has not been established. Efficacy was not demonstrated in a 6-week study evaluating lurasidone hydrochloride 20 mg/day and 60 mg/day for the treatment of pediatric patients 6 to 17 years of age with irritability associated with autistic disorder diagnosed by Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th Ed., Text Revision [DSM-IV-TR] criteria. The primary objective of the study as measured by improvement from Baseline in the irritability subscale of the Aberrant Behavior Checklist (ABC) at Endpoint (Week 6) was not met. A total of 149 patients were randomized to lurasidone hydrochloride or placebo. Vomiting occurred at a higher rate than reported in other lurasidone hydrochloride studies (4/49 or 8% for 20mg, 14/51 or 27% for 60mg, and 2/49 or 4% for placebo), particularly in children ages 6 to 12 (13 out of 18 patients on lurasidone hydrochloride with vomiting). In a long-term, open-label study that enrolled pediatric patients (age 6 to 17 years) with schizophrenia, bipolar depression, or autistic disorder from three short-term, placebo-controlled trials, 54% (378/701) received lurasidone for 104 weeks. There was one adverse event in this trial that was considered possibly drug-related and has not been reported in adults receiving lurasidone: a 10 year old male experienced a prolonged, painful erection, consistent with priapism, that led to treatment discontinuation. In this trial, the mean increase in height from open-label baseline to Week 104 was 4.94 cm. To adjust for normal growth, z-scores were derived (measured in standard deviations [SD]), which normalize for the natural growth of children and adolescents by comparisons to age- and sex-matched population standards. A z-score change <0.5 SD is considered not clinically significant. In this trial, the mean change in height z-score from open-label baseline to Week 104 was +0.05 SD, indicating minimal deviation from the normal growth curve. Juvenile animal studies Adverse effects were seen on growth, physical and neurobehavioral development at doses as low as 0.2 times the MRHD based on mg/m 2 . Lurasidone was orally administered to rats from postnatal days 21 through 91 (this period corresponds to childhood, adolescence, and young adulthood in humans) at doses of 3, 30, and 150 (males) or 300 (females) mg/kg/day which are 0.2 to 10 times (males) and 20 times (females) the maximum recommended adult human dose (MRHD) of 160 mg/day based on mg/m 2 . The adverse effects included dose-dependent decreases in femoral length, bone mineral content, body and brain weights at 2 times the MRHD in both sexes, and motor hyperactivity at 0.2 and 2 times the MRHD in both sexes based on mg/m 2 . In females, there was a delay in attainment of sexual maturity at 2 times the MRHD, associated with decreased serum estradiol. Mortality occurred in both sexes during early post- weaning period and some of the male weanlings died after only 4 treatments at doses as low as 2 times the MRHD based on mg/m 2 . Histopathological findings included increased colloid in the thyroids and inflammation of the prostate in males at 10 times MRHD based on mg/m 2 and mammary gland hyperplasia, increased vaginal mucification, and increased ovarian atretic follicles at doses as low as 0.2 times the MRHD based on mg/m 2 . Some of these findings were attributed to transiently elevated serum prolactin which was seen in both sexes at all doses. However, there were no changes at any dose level in reproductive parameters (fertility, conception indices, spermatogenesis, estrous cycle, gestation length, parturition, number of pups born). The no effect dose for neurobehavioral changes in males is 0.2 times the MRHD based on mg/m 2 and could not be determined in females. The no effect dose for growth and physical development in both sexes is 0.2 times the MRHD based on mg/m 2 .

Pregnancy

8.1 Pregnancy Pregnancy Exposure Registry There is a pregnancy exposure registry that monitors pregnancy outcomes in women exposed to lurasidone hydrochloride during pregnancy. For more information, contact the National Pregnancy Registry for Atypical Antipsychotics at 1-866-961-2388 or visit http://womensmentalhealth.org/clinical-and-research-programs/pregnancyregistry/. Risk Summary Neonates exposed to antipsychotic drugs during the third trimester of pregnancy are at risk for extrapyramidal and/or withdrawal symptoms following delivery [see Clinical Considerations] . There are no studies of lurasidone hydrochloride use in pregnant women. The limited available data are not sufficient to inform a drug-associated risk of birth defects or miscarriage. In animal reproduction studies, no teratogenic effects were seen in pregnant rats and rabbits given lurasidone during the period of organogenesis at doses approximately 1.5- and 6-times, the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) of 160 mg/day, respectively based on mg/m 2 body surface area [ s e e Data] . The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population(s) 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 to 4% and 15 to20%, respectively. Clinical Considerations Fetal/Neonatal Adverse Reactions: Extrapyramidal and/or withdrawal symptoms, including agitation, hypertonia, hypotonia, tremor, somnolence, respiratory distress and feeding disorder have been reported in neonates who were exposed to antipsychotic drugs during the third trimester of pregnancy. These symptoms have varied in severity. Some neonates recovered within hours or days without specific treatment; others required prolonged hospitalization. Monitor neonates for extrapyramidal and/or withdrawal symptoms and manage symptoms appropriately. Data Animal Data: Pregnant rats were treated with oral lurasidone at doses of 3, 10, and 25 mg/kg/day during the period of organogenesis. These doses are 0.2, 0.6, and 1.5 times the MRHD of 160 mg/day based on mg/m 2 body surface area. No teratogenic or embryo-fetal effects were observed up to 1.5 times the MRHD of 160 mg/day, based on mg/m 2 . Pregnant rabbits were treated with oral lurasidone at doses of 2, 10, and 50 mg/kg/day during the period of organogenesis. These doses are 0.2, 1.2 and 6 times the MRHD of 160 mg/day based on mg/m 2 . No teratogenic or embryo-fetal effects were observed up to 6 times the MRHD of 160 mg/day based on mg/m 2 . Pregnant rats were treated with oral lurasidone at doses of 0.4, 2, and 10 mg/kg/day during the periods of organogenesis and lactation. These doses are 0.02, 0.1 and 0.6 times the MRHD of 160 mg/day based on mg/m 2 . No pre- and postnatal developmental effects were observed up to 0.6 times the MRHD of 160 mg/day, based on mg/m 2 .

Lurasidone is present in rat milk. The development and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother's clinical need for lurasidone hydrochloride and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from lurasidone hydrochloride or from the underlying maternal condition. 8.4 Pediatric Use Schizophrenia The safety and effectiveness of lurasidone hydrochloride 40-mg/day and 80-mg/day for the treatment of schizophrenia in adolescents (13 to 17 years) was established in a 6-week, placebocontrolled clinical study in 326 adolescent patients [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.1 ), Adverse Reactions ( 6.1 ), and Clinical Studies ( 14.1 )].

Juvenile animal studies Adverse effects were seen on growth, physical and neurobehavioral development at doses as low as 0.2 times the MRHD based on mg/m 2 . Lurasidone was orally administered to rats from postnatal days 21 through 91 (this period corresponds to childhood, adolescence, and young adulthood in humans) at doses of 3, 30, and 150 (males) or 300 (females) mg/kg/day which are 0.2 to 10 times (males) and 20 times (females) the maximum recommended adult human dose (MRHD) of 160 mg/day based on mg/m 2 . The adverse effects included dose-dependent decreases in femoral length, bone mineral content, body and brain weights at 2 times the MRHD in both sexes, and motor hyperactivity at 0.2 and 2 times the MRHD in both sexes based on mg/m 2 . In females, there was a delay in attainment of sexual maturity at 2 times the MRHD, associated with decreased serum estradiol. Mortality occurred in both sexes during early post- weaning period and some of the male weanlings died after only 4 treatments at doses as low as 2 times the MRHD based on mg/m 2 . Histopathological findings included increased colloid in the thyroids and inflammation of the prostate in males at 10 times MRHD based on mg/m 2 and mammary gland hyperplasia, increased vaginal mucification, and increased ovarian atretic follicles at doses as low as 0.2 times the MRHD based on mg/m 2 . Some of these findings were attributed to transiently elevated serum prolactin which was seen in both sexes at all doses. However, there were no changes at any dose level in reproductive parameters (fertility, conception indices, spermatogenesis, estrous cycle, gestation length, parturition, number of pups born). The no effect dose for neurobehavioral changes in males is 0.2 times the MRHD based on mg/m 2 and could not be determined in females. The no effect dose for growth and physical development in both sexes is 0.2 times the MRHD based on mg/m 2 . 8.5 Geriatric Use Clinical studies with lurasidone hydrochloride did not include sufficient numbers of patients aged 65 and older to determine whether or not they respond differently from younger patients. In elderly patients with psychosis (65 to 85), lurasidone hydrochloride concentrations (20 mg/day) were similar to those in young subjects. It is unknown whether dose adjustment is necessary on the basis of age alone. Elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis treated with lurasidone hydrochloride are at an increased risk of death compared to placebo. Lurasidone hydrochloride is not approved for the treatment of patients with dementia-related psychosis [see Boxed Warning, Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 , 5.3 )] . 8.6 Renal Impairment Reduce the maximum recommended dosage in patients with moderate or severe renal impairment (CLcr <50 mL/minute). Patients with impaired renal function (CLcr <50 mL/minute) had higher exposure to lurasidone than patients with normal renal function [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] . Greater exposure may increase the risk of lurasidone hydrochloride-associated adverse reactions [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.4 )] 8.7 Hepatic Impairment Reduce the maximum recommended dosage in patients with moderate to severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh score ≥7). Patients with moderate to severe hepatic impairment (Child- Pugh score ≥7) generally had higher exposure to lurasidone than patients with normal hepatic function [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] . Greater exposure may increase the risk of lurasidone hydrochloride-associated adverse reactions [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.5 )]. 8.8 Other Specific Populations No dosage adjustment for lurasidone hydrochloride is required on the basis of a patient's sex, race, or smoking status [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )].
