Adverse reactions are sorted by decreasing incidence in patients treated with ZEPOSIA. For adverse reactions pertaining to liver function tests, increases were transient and generally resolved without discontinuation.1
Elevations of 3-fold the ULN or greater occurred in 5.5% of patients taking ZEPOSIA and in 3.1% of patients taking Avonex. The majority (79%) continued treatment with ZEPOSIA with values returning to less than 3 times the ULN within approximately 2 to 4 weeks.1
From the first patient randomized (October 18, 2012) through the DAYBREAK data cutoff (February 1, 2022), the maximum continuous exposure was 110.8 months. The mean exposure to once daily oral ZEPOSIA 0.92 mg in the parent trials and DAYBREAK was 70.4 months.1,14,15
Data are not an adequate basis for comparison of rates between ZEPOSIA and the active control.1

Rates of Serious Infections
and Malignancies Consistent
vs Avonex
The rate of serious infections at 1 year for ZEPOSIA was 1.1% vs 0.7% for Avonex, and the rate at 2 years for ZEPOSIA
was 0.9% vs 0.9% for Avonex. The rate of malignancies at 1 year for ZEPOSIA was 0.2% vs 0% for Avonex, and the rate at 2 years for ZEPOSIA was 0.9% vs 0.5% for Avonex.14,15
► Overall Infections
In SUNBEAM and RADIANCE, the overall rate of infections with ZEPOSIA (35%) was similar to Avonex (34%). ZEPOSIA causes a reduction in peripheral blood lymphocyte count and may increase the risk of infection.1
Controlled Lymphocyte Reductions
ALC was consistently maintained near the lower limit of normal across both pivotal trials, and the mean ALC for both SUNBEAM and RADIANCE was ≈0.8 × 109/L.14-16
