The only non-ocular adverse reaction reported in > 5% of subjects was dysgeusia (6%).
Special populations
8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS 8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary There are no available data with RYZUMVI administration in pregnant women to inform a drug-associated risk. In animal toxicology studies, when phentolamine was administered orally to pregnant mice and rats during the period of organogenesis, skeletal immaturity and decreased growth was observed in the offspring at doses at least 24-times the recommended clinical dose. Additionally, a lower rate of implantation was seen in pregnant rats treated with phentolamine administered at least 60-times the recommended clinical dose. No malformations or embryofetal deaths were observed in the offspring of pregnant mice, rats, and rabbits administered phentolamine during the period of organogenesis at doses of at least 24-, 60-, and 20-times, respectively, the recommended clinical dose (see Data ) . RYZUMVI should only be used during pregnancy if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. Data Animal Data Oral administration of phentolamine to pregnant rats and mice at doses at least 24-times the recommended clinical dose (based on a body weight per surface area (mg/m 2 ) comparison with a 60-kg human) resulted in slightly decreased growth and slight skeletal immaturity of the fetuses. Immaturity was manifested by increased incidence of incomplete or unossified calcanei and phalangeal nuclei of the hind limb and of incompletely ossified sternebrae. At oral phentolamine doses at least 60-times the recommended clinical dose (based on a mg/m 2 comparison with a 60-kg human), a slightly lower rate of implantation was found in rats. Phentolamine did not affect embryonic or fetal development in rabbits at oral doses at least 20-times the recommended dose (based on a mg/m 2 comparison with a 60-kg human). No malformations or embryofetal deaths were observed in the rat, mouse or rabbit studies. 8.2 Lactation Risk Summary There is no information regarding the presence of phentolamine in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infants, or the effects on milk production during lactation to inform risk of phentolamine ophthalmic solution 0.75% to an infant. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for RYZUMVI and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed child from RYZUMVI. 8.4 Pediatric Use The safety and effectiveness of RYZUMVI have been established in pediatric patients aged 3 to 17 years. No overall differences have been observed between pediatric and adult subjects [see Clinical Studies (14) ] . 8.5 Geriatric Use No overall differences in safety and effectiveness have been observed between elderly and younger adult subjects.

Clinical pharmacology
12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY 12.1 Mechanism of Action RYZUMVI is a relatively non-selective alpha-1 and alpha-2 adrenergic antagonist. Dilation of the pupil is primarily controlled by the radial iris dilator muscles surrounding the pupil; these muscles are activated by the alpha-1 adrenergic receptors. Phentolamine reversibly binds to these receptors on the iris dilator muscle, thereby reducing pupil diameter. Phentolamine directly antagonizes the mydriatic effect of an α-1 adrenergic agonist, and indirectly reverses mydriasis induced by muscarinic antagonist effects on the iris sphincter muscle. 12.2 Pharmacodynamics The onset of action after administration of RYZUMVI generally occurs in 30 minutes, with the maximal effect seen in 60 to 90 minutes, and the effect lasting at least 24 hours. 12.3 Pharmacokinetics Phentolamine systemic exposure was evaluated in a Phase 3 trial (MIRA-3) following topical ocular administration of a total of 3 drops, each of 0.03 mL, of phentolamine ophthalmic solution 0.75%. The peak concentration levels are achieved between 15 minutes and 1 hour after dosing with the median value of 0.45 ng/mL.

Nonclinical toxicology
13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY 13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility Carcinogenesis Carcinogenicity studies with RYZUMVI have not been conducted. Mutagenesis Phentolamine was not mutagenic in the in vitro bacterial reverse mutation (Ames) assay. In the in vitro chromosomal aberration study in Chinese hamster ovary cells, numerical aberrations were slightly increased after a 4-hour exposure to phentolamine without metabolic activation, and structural aberrations were slightly increased after a 4-hour exposure to phentolamine with metabolic activation only at the highest concentrations tested, but neither numerical nor structural aberrations were increased after a 20-hour exposure without metabolic activation. Phentolamine was not clastogenic in two in vivo mouse micronucleus assays. Impairment of Fertility The effect of phentolamine on female fertility has not been studied. Male rats treated with oral phentolamine for 9 weeks (4 weeks prior to mating, 3 weeks during the mating period and 2 weeks after mating) were mated with untreated females. At doses up to 648-times human therapeutic exposure levels at the Cmax, no adverse effects on male fertility parameters or on reproductive parameters in the untreated females mated with the treated males were observed.

Clinical studies in the label
14 CLINICAL STUDIES The efficacy of RYZUMVI for the reversal of mydriasis was demonstrated in two, randomized, double-masked, vehicle-controlled trials; MIRA-2 (NCT#04620213) and MIRA-3 (NCT#05134974). A total of 553 subjects, aged 12 to 80 years, who had mydriasis induced by instillation of phenylephrine or tropicamide or a combination of hydroxyamphetamine hydrobromide and tropicamide (Paremyd ® ) were randomized. Subjects with light and dark irides were included in both trials. Two drops (study eye) or one drop (fellow eye) of RYZUMVI or placebo (vehicle) were administered one hour after instillation of the mydriatic agent. The percentage of subjects with study eyes returning to ≤ 0.2 mm from baseline pupil diameter was statistically significantly greater (p < 0.01) at all time points measured from 60 minutes through 24 hours in the RYZUMVI group compared with the placebo (vehicle) group across both of the MIRA-2 and MIRA-3 trials (see Figure 1). Figure 1. Percentage of Subjects with Study Eyes Returning to ≤ 0.2 mm from Baseline Pupil Diameter by Time Point in the MIRA-2 and MIRA-3 Trials The efficacy of MIRA-2 and MIRA-3 also showed that the change from maximum pupil dilation in study eyes and fellow eyes was statistically significantly different between the RYZUMVI-treated group and the placebo-treated group at all time points from 60 minutes through 24 hours post-treatment (p < 0.01). Pupil size at 24 hours was 1 mm smaller than baseline. These results were consistent regardless of whether phenylephrine or tropicamide/Paremyd were used as mydriatic agents (Figure 2, Figure 3; respectively). Figure 2: Pupil Dilation by Time Point with Phenylephrine as Mydriatic Agent in MIRA-2 and MIRA-3 Trials (mITT Population) Figure 3: Pupil Dilation by Time Point with Tropicamide or Paremyd as Mydriatic Agent in MIRA-2 and MIRA-3 Trials (mITT Population) The efficacy of RYZUMVI was similar for all age ranges including pediatric subjects aged 3 to 17 years. Pediatric subjects aged 12 to 17 years (n = 27) were treated in MIRA-2 and MIRA-3 and pediatric subjects, aged 3 to 11 years (n = 11) were treated in MIRA-4, (NCT#05223478).
