5 Warnings and Precautions
5.1 Disturbance in Sexual ArousalAdditions and revisions underlined:
Sexual adverse reactions may occur in patients treated with IMCIVREE. Spontaneous penile erections in males (24% in patients aged 6 years and older; 8% in patients aged 2 to less than years) and sexual adverse reactions in females (7% in IMCIVREE-treated patients aged 6 years and older and 0% in placebo-treated patients from an unapproved population) occurred in clinical studies with IMCIVREE [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)].
Additions and revisions underlined:
Some drugs that target the central nervous system, such as IMCIVREE, may cause depression or suicidal ideation. Depression (26% in patients aged 6 years and older), suicidal ideation (11% in patients aged 6 years and older), and depressed mood (8% in patients aged 2 to less than 6 years) occurred in adults and pediatric patients in IMCIVREE clinical studies [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. Patients with a history of depression or suicidal ideation may be at increased risk for recurrent episodes while taking IMCIVREE.
Subsection Title Revised
Additions and revisions underlined:
Generalized or focal increases in skin pigmentation occurred in the majority of patients (67% in patients aged 6 years and older; 83% in patients 2 to less than 6 years) treated with IMCIVREE in clinical trials [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.1)]. This effect is reversible upon discontinuation of the drug.
IMCIVREE may also cause the development of new melanocytic nevi or darkening of pre- existing nevi due to its pharmacologic effect. Development of new melanocytic nevi and darkening or increase in size of existing melanocytic nevi occurred in 16% of patients aged 6 years and older and 33% of patients aged 2 to less than 6 years.

5 Warnings and Precautions
5.1 Disturbance in Sexual ArousalAdditions and/or revisions underlined:
Sexual adverse reactions may occur in patients treated with IMCIVREE. Spontaneous penile erections in males (24%) and sexual adverse reactions in females (7% in IMCIVREE-treated patients and 0% in placebo-treated patients from an unapproved population) occurred in clinical studies with IMCIVREE [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)].
Inform patients that these events may occur and instruct patients who have an erection lasting longer than 4 hours to seek emergency medical attention.
Additions and/or revisions underlined:
Some drugs that target the central nervous system, such as IMCIVREE, may cause depression or suicidal ideation. Depression (26%) and suicidal ideation (11%) occurred in adults and pediatric patients in IMCIVREE clinical studies [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. Patients with a history of depression or suicidal ideation may be at increased risk for recurrent episodes while taking IMCIVREE.
Monitor patients for new onset or worsening of depression, suicidal thoughts or behavior, or any unusual changes in mood or behavior. Consider discontinuing IMCIVREE if patients experience suicidal thoughts or behaviors or if clinically significant or persistent depression symptoms occur.
Additions and/or revisions underlined:
Generalized increased skin pigmentation occurred in the majority of patients (69%) treated with IMCIVREE in clinical trials [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.1)]. IMCIVREE may also cause darkening of pre-existing nevi due to its pharmacologic effect. This effect is reversible upon discontinuation of the drug.
Perform a full body skin examination prior to initiation and periodically during treatment with IMCIVREE to monitor pre-existing and new skin pigmentary lesions.
Additions and/or revisions underlined:
IMCIVREE is not approved for use in neonates or infants. Serious and fatal adverse reactions including “gasping syndrome” can occur in neonates and low birth weight infants treated with benzyl alcohol-preserved drugs, including IMCIVREE. The “gasping syndrome” is characterized by central nervous system depression, metabolic acidosis, and gasping respirations. The minimum amount of benzyl alcohol at which serious adverse reactions may occur is not known (IMCIVREE contains 10 mg of benzyl alcohol per mL) [see Use in Specific Populations (8.4)].
6 Adverse Reactions

The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling:
Extensive changes; please refer to label
8 Use in Specific Populations
8.4 Pediatric UseAdditions and/or revisions underlined:
The safety and effectiveness of IMCIVREE have been established for chronic weight management in pediatric patients aged 6 years and older with obesity due to:
POMC, PCSK1, or LEPR deficiency with variants in POMC, PCSK1, or LEPR genes that are interpreted as pathogenic, likely pathogenic, or of uncertain significance (VUS) [see Clinical Studies (14.1)]
BBS [see Clinical Studies (14.2)]
Use of IMCIVREE for these indications is supported by evidence from 2 one-year, open-label studies that included 9 pediatric patients with POMC, PCSK1, or LEPR deficiency, and from one 66-week study, which included a 14-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled period followed by a 52-week open-label period, and included 22 pediatric patients with BBS [see Clinical Studies (14.1, 14.2)].
The safety and effectiveness of IMCIVREE have not been established in pediatric patients younger than 6 years old.
IMCIVREE is not approved for use in neonates or infants. Serious adverse reactions including fatal reactions and the “gasping syndrome” occurred in premature neonates and low birth weight infants in the neonatal intensive care unit who received drugs containing benzyl alcohol as a preservative. In these cases, benzyl alcohol dosages of 99 to 234 mg/kg/day produced high levels of benzyl alcohol and its metabolites in the blood and urine (blood levels of benzyl alcohol were 0.61 to 1.378 mmol/L). Additional adverse reactions included gradual neurological deterioration, seizures, intracranial hemorrhage, hematologic abnormalities, skin breakdown, hepatic and renal failure, hypotension, bradycardia, and cardiovascular collapse. Preterm, low-birth weight infants may be more likely to develop these reactions because they may be less able to metabolize benzyl alcohol. The minimum amount of benzyl alcohol at which serious adverse reactions may occur is not known (IMCIVREE contains 10 mg of benzyl alcohol) [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4)].
Additions and/or revisions underlined:
Clinical studies of IMCIVREE did not include patients aged 65 and over. It is not known whether geriatric patients would respond differently than younger adult patients.
Additions and/or revisions underlined:
Patients with severe renal impairment have a higher exposure of setmelanotide relative to patients with normal kidney function. Reduce the recommended starting and target dosage of IMCIVREE in adults and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older with severe renal impairment (eGFR 15-29 mL/min/1.73 m2). The use of IMCIVREE in pediatric patients 6 to less than 12 years of age with severe renal impairment is not recommended [see Dosage and Administration (2.5), Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].
The recommended dosage in patients with mild (eGFR of 60-89 mL/min/1.73 m^2) or moderate renal impairment (eGFR of 30-59 mL/min/1.73 m^2) is the same as those with normal kidney function [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].
IMCIVREE is not recommended for use in patients with end stage renal disease (eGFR less than 15 mL/min/1.73 m^2).
