Summary of the safety profile In adults, the safety of apixaban has been investigated in 7 Phase III clinical studies including more than 21 000 patients: more than 5 000 patients in VTEp studies, and more than 11 000 patients in NVAF studies and more than 4 000 patients in the VTE treatment (VTEt) studies, for an average total exposure of 20 days, 1.7 years and 221 days respectively (see section 5.1). Common adverse reactions were haemorrhage, contusion, epistaxis, and haematoma (see Table 3 for adverse reaction profile and frequencies by indication). In the NVAF studies, the overall incidence of adverse reactions related to bleeding with apixaban was 24.3% in the apixaban vs warfarin study and 9.6% in the apixaban vs acetylsalicylic acid study. In the apixaban vs warfarin study the incidence of ISTH major gastrointestinal bleeds (including upper GI, lower GI, and rectal bleeding) with apixaban was 0.76%/year. The incidence of ISTH major intraocular bleeding with apixaban was 0.18%/year. In the VTEt studies, the overall incidence of adverse reactions related to bleeding with apixaban was 15.6% in the apixaban vs enoxaparin/warfarin study and 13.3% in the apixaban vs placebo study (see section 5.1). Tabulated list of adverse reactions Table 3 shows the adverse reactions ranked under headings of system organ class and frequency using the following convention: very common (≥ 1/10) common (≥ 1/100 to < 1/10); uncommon (≥ 1/1 000 to < 1/100); rare (≥ 1/10 000 to < 1/1 000); very rare (< 1/10 000); not known (cannot be estimated from the available data) in adults for NVAF and VTEp or VTEt and in paediatric patients from 28 days to < 18 years of age for VTEt and prevention of recurrent VTE. 47 The frequencies of adverse reactions reported in Table 3 for paediatric patients are derived from study CV185325, in which they received apixaban for treatment of VTE and prevention of recurrent VTE.

Common adverse reactions were haemorrhage, contusion, epistaxis, and haematoma (see Table 3 for adverse reaction profile and frequencies by indication). In the VTEp studies, in total, 11% of the patients treated with apixaban 2.5 mg twice daily experienced adverse reactions. The overall incidence of adverse reactions related to bleeding with apixaban was 10% in the apixaban vs enoxaparin studies. In the NVAF studies, the overall incidence of adverse reactions related to bleeding with apixaban was 24.3% in the apixaban vs warfarin study and 9.6% in the apixaban vs acetylsalicylic acid study.

Interaction studies have not been performed in paediatric patients. The below mentioned interaction data was obtained in adults and the warnings in section 4.4 should be taken into account for the paediatric population. Inhibitors of CYP3A4 and P-gp Coadministration of apixaban with ketoconazole (400 mg once a day), a strong inhibitor of both CYP3A4 and P-gp, led to a 2-fold increase in mean apixaban AUC and a 1.6-fold increase in mean apixaban Cmax. The use of apixaban is not recommended in patients receiving concomitant systemic treatment with strong inhibitors of both CYP3A4 and P-gp, such as azole antimycotics (e.g., ketoconazole, itraconazole, voriconazole and posaconazole) and HIV protease inhibitors (e.g., ritonavir) (see section 4.4). Active substances which are not considered strong inhibitors of both CYP3A4 and P-gp, (e.g., amiodarone, clarithromycin, diltiazem, fluconazole, naproxen, quinidine, verapamil) are expected to increase apixaban plasma concentration to a lesser extent. No dose adjustment for apixaban is required when coadministered with agents that are not strong inhibitors of both CYP3A4 and P-gp. For example, diltiazem (360 mg once a day), considered a moderate CYP3A4 and a weak P-gp inhibitor, led to a 1.4-fold increase in mean apixaban AUC and a 1.3-fold increase in Cmax. Naproxen (500 mg, single dose) an inhibitor of P-gp but not an inhibitor of CYP3A4, led to a 1.5-fold and 1.6-fold increase in mean apixaban AUC and Cmax, respectively. Clarithromycin (500 mg, twice a day), an 97 inhibitor of P-gp and a strong inhibitor of CYP3A4, led to a 1.6-fold and 1.3-fold increase in mean apixaban AUC and Cmax respectively. Inducers of CYP3A4 and P-gp Coadministration of apixaban with rifampicin, a strong inducer of both CYP3A4 and P-gp, led to an approximate 54% and 42% decrease in mean apixaban AUC and Cmax, respectively. The concomitant use of apixaban with other strong CYP3A4 and P-gp inducers (e.g., phenytoin, carbamazepine, phenobarbital or St. John’s Wort) may also lead to reduced apixaban plasma concentrations. No dose adjustment for apixaban is required during concomitant therapy with such medicinal products, however in patients receiving concomitant systemic treatment with strong inducers of both CYP3A4 and P-gp apixaban should be used with caution for the prevention of VTE in elective hip or knee replacement surgery, for the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in

As a precautionary measure, it is preferable to avoid the use of apixaban during pregnancy. Breast-feeding It is unknown whether apixaban or its metabolites are excreted in human milk. Available data in animals have shown excretion of apixaban in milk (see section 5.3). A risk to the suckling child cannot be excluded.

Haemorrhage risk As with other anticoagulants, patients taking apixaban are to be carefully observed for signs of bleeding. It is recommended to be used with caution in conditions with increased risk of haemorrhage. Apixaban administration should be discontinued if severe haemorrhage occurs (see sections 4.8 and 4.9). Although treatment with apixaban does not require routine monitoring of exposure, a calibrated quantitative anti-Factor Xa assay may be useful in exceptional situations where knowledge of apixaban exposure may help to inform clinical decisions, e.g., overdose and emergency surgery (see section 5.1). A specific reversal agent (andexanet alfa) antagonising the pharmacodynamic effect of apixaban is available for adults. However, its safety and efficacy have not been established in paediatric patients (refer to the summary of product characteristics of andexanet alfa). Transfusion of fresh frozen plasma, administration of prothrombin complex concentrates (PCCs),or recombinant factor VIIa may be considered. However, there is no clinical experience with the use of 4-factor PCC products to reverse bleeding in paediatric and adult patients who have received apixaban. 40 Interaction with other medicinal products affecting haemostasis Due to an increased bleeding risk, concomitant treatment with any other anticoagulants is contraindicated (see section 4.3). The concomitant use of apixaban with antiplatelet agents increases the risk of bleeding (see section 4.5). Care is to be taken if patients are treated concomitantly with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) or serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs), or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including acetylsalicylic acid. Following surgery, other platelet aggregation inhibitors are not recommended concomitantly with apixaban (see section 4.5). In patients with atrial fibrillation and conditions that warrant mono or dual antiplatelet therapy, a careful assessment of the potential benefits against the potential risks should be made before combining this therapy with Eliquis. In a clinical study of adult patients with atrial fibrillation, concomitant use of ASA increased the major bleeding risk on apixaban from 1.8% per year to 3.4% per year and increased the bleeding risk on warfarin from 2.7% per year to 4.6% per year. In this clinical study, there was limited (2.1%) use of concomitant dual antiplatelet t
