( 2.6 ) 2.1 Recommended Testing, Evaluations, and Procedures Prior to Treatment Initiation Perform the following tests and evaluations prior to CIBINQO initiation: • Tuberculosis (TB) infection evaluation – CIBINQO initiation is not recommended in patients with active TB. For patients with latent TB or those with a negative latent TB test who are at high risk for TB, start preventive therapy for latent TB prior to initiation of CIBINQO [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] . • Viral hepatitis screening in accordance with clinical guidelines – CIBINQO initiation is not recommended in patients with active hepatitis B or hepatitis C [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] . • A complete blood count (CBC) – CIBINQO initiation is not recommended in patients with a platelet count <150,000/mm 3 , an absolute lymphocyte count <500/mm 3 , an absolute neutrophil count <1,000/mm 3 , or a hemoglobin value <8 g/dL [see Warnings and Precautions (5.7) ] . Complete any necessary immunizations, including herpes zoster vaccinations, in agreement with current immunization guidelines prior to CIBINQO initiation [see Warnings and Precautions (5.8) ] . 2.2 Recommended Dosage The recommended dosage is 100 mg once daily. If an adequate response is not achieved with CIBINQO 100 mg once daily, consider increasing the dosage to 200 mg once daily. Discontinue CIBINQO if an adequate response is not achieved with 200 mg once daily. Use the lowest efficacious dosage to maintain response. CIBINQO can be used with or without topical corticosteroids. If a dose is missed, administer the dose as soon as possible unless it is less than 12 hours before the next dose, in which case, skip the missed dose. Thereafter, resume dosing at the regular scheduled time. 2.3 Recommended Dosage in Patients with Renal Impairment or Hepatic Impairment Renal Impairment CIBINQO dosage recommendations for patients with renal impairment are provided in Table 1 [see Use in Specific Populations (8.6) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] . In patients with mild and moderate renal impairment, if an adequate response is not achieved with initial dose, the dose of CIBINQO can be doubled. Table 1. Recommended Dosage in Patients with Renal Impairment Renal Impairment Stage Estimated Glomerular Filtration (eGFR) Glomerular filtration rate was estimated by the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) formula. Recommended Dosage Mild 60 – 89 mL/minute CIBINQO 100 mg once daily Moderate 30 – 59 mL/minute CIBINQO 50 mg once daily Severe Severe Renal Impairment and End-Stage Renal Disease include patients on renal replacement therapy. 15 – 29 mL/minute Not recommended for use End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) <15 mL/minute Hepatic Impairment CIBINQO is not recommended for use in patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh C).

Discontinue therapy if inadequate response is seen after dosage increase to 100 mg once daily . 2.5 Dosage Modifications for Strong CYP2C19 Inhibitors In patients who concomitantly use strong inhibitors of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C19, reduce the dosage of CIBINQO to 50 mg once daily [see Drug Interactions (7.1) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] . If an adequate response is not achieved with CIBINQO 50 mg daily, consider increasing the dosage to 100 mg once daily. Discontinue therapy if inadequate response is seen after dosage increase to 100 mg once daily. Dosage modification is not required in patients taking moderate inhibitors of CYP2C19. 2.6 Treatment Discontinuation due to Serious Infections or Hematologic Adverse Reactions Serious or Opportunistic Infections If a patient develops a serious or opportunistic infection, discontinue CIBINQO and control the infection. The risks and benefits of treatment with CIBINQO should be carefully considered prior to reinitiating therapy with CIBINQO [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) ] .

The safety of CIBINQO was evaluated in four randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trials (2 monotherapy, 1 combination therapy with topical corticosteroid, and 1 dose-ranging) [see Clinical Studies (14) ] and one long-term extension trial in subjects with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis (AD). A total of 1623 subjects with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis were treated with CIBINQO in these clinical trials representing 1428 patient-years of exposure. There were 634 subjects with at least 1 year of exposure to CIBINQO. In the placebo-controlled clinical trials, a total of 1198 subjects were exposed to CIBINQO with 608 subjects receiving CIBINQO 100 mg once daily and 590 subjects receiving CIBINQO 200 mg once daily for up to 16 weeks. The median age of subjects was 33.0 years, 124 subjects (8.1%) were 12 to less than 18 years old and 94 subjects (6.1%) were 65 years of age or older. The majority of subjects were White (68.7%) and male (53.9%). Adverse reactions occurring at ≥1% in any of the treated groups and at a higher rate than in the placebo group are presented in Table 3. A total of 61 (5.1%) subjects treated with CIBINQO were discontinued from the trials due to adverse reactions. The safety profile of CIBINQO in the monotherapy and the combination trial(s) were similar. Table 3.

Both cases occurred in the first 4 weeks of exposure. Lipid Elevations In the placebo-controlled trials, for up to 16 weeks, there was a dose-related percent increase in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c), total cholesterol, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c) relative to placebo at Week 4 which remained elevated through the final visit in the treatment period. Adverse reactions related to hyperlipidemia occurred in 1 subject (0.6 per 100 patient-years) exposed to CIBINQO 100 mg, 3 subjects (2.0 per 100 patient-years) exposed to CIBINQO 200 mg. Retinal Detachment In the placebo-controlled trials, for up to 16 weeks, retinal detachment occurred in 1 subject (0.6 per 100 patient-years) treated with CIBINQO 100 mg. In all 5 clinical trials, including the long-term extension trial, retinal detachment occurred in 2 subjects (0.3 per 100 patient-years) treated with CIBINQO 100 mg. Creatine Phosphokinase Elevations (CPK) In the placebo-controlled trials, for up to 16 weeks, events of blood CPK increased were reported in 6 subjects (7.5 per 100 patient-years) treated with placebo, 11 subjects (6.9 per 100 patient-years) treated with 100 mg of CIBINQO and 19 subjects (12.3 per 100 patient-years) treated with 200 mg of CIBINQO. Most elevations were transient, there were no reported adverse reactions of rhabdomyolysis. Pediatric Subjects (12 to less than 18 years of age) The safety of CIBINQO was assessed in a trial of 284 subjects 12 to less than 18 years of age with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (Trial-AD-4). The safety profile of CIBINQO in these subjects, assessed through the initial treatment period of 12 weeks and the long-term period (213 with at least 52 weeks of abrocitinib exposure), was comparable to the safety profile from trials in adults with atopic dermatitis.
