GEMTESA® is a beta-3 adrenergic agonist indicated for the treatment of:

overactive bladder (OAB) with symptoms of urge urinary incontinence, urgency, and urinary frequency in adults.
overactive bladder (OAB) with symptoms of urge urinary incontinence, urgency, and urinary frequency in adult males on pharmacological therapy for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

CONTRAINDICATIONS

GEMTESA is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to vibegron or any components of GEMTESA. Hypersensitivity reactions, such as angioedema, have occurred.

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

Urinary Retention

Urinary retention has been reported in patients taking GEMTESA. The risk of urinary retention may be increased in patients with bladder outlet obstruction and also in patients taking muscarinic antagonist medications for the treatment of OAB. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of urinary retention, particularly in patients with bladder outlet obstruction and patients taking muscarinic antagonist medications for the treatment of OAB. Discontinue GEMTESA in patients who develop urinary retention.

Angioedema

Angioedema of the face and/or larynx has been reported with GEMTESA. Angioedema has been reported to occur hours after the first dose or after multiple doses. Angioedema, associated with upper airway swelling, may be life-threatening. If involvement of the tongue, hypopharynx, or larynx occurs, immediately discontinue GEMTESA and provide appropriate therapy and/or measures necessary to ensure a patent airway.

ADVERSE REACTIONS

Most common adverse reactions (≥2%) reported with GEMTESA were headache, urinary tract infection, nasopharyngitis, diarrhea, nausea, and upper respiratory tract infection.

INDICATIONS AND USAGE

GEMTESA® is a beta-3 adrenergic agonist indicated for the treatment of:

overactive bladder (OAB) with symptoms of urge urinary incontinence, urgency, and urinary frequency in adults.

77% OAB WET*

Symptoms of OAB ≥3 months with average ≥8 micturitions/day and ≥1 UUI/day, or average ≥8 micturitions/day and average ≥3 urgency episodes/day^2†

* OAB wet=average of ≥1 urge urinary incontinence episode per day; OAB dry=average of ≥3 urgency episodes and average of <1 urge urinary incontinence episode per day.²

^† UUI was defined as leakage of urine of any amount because the patient felt an urge or need to urinate immediately.¹

GEMTESA met efficacy endpoints^1,2

12-week study efficacy endpoints

Co-primary endpoints

CFB in average daily number of micturitions and urge urinary incontinence episodes at Week 12

Key secondary endpoints

CFB in average daily number of urgency episodes at Week 12
Percent of OAB-wet patients at Week 12 with ≥75% reduction in total number of urge urinary incontinence episodes in 24 hours*
Percent of all OAB patients at Week 12 with 50% reduction in total number of urgency episodes per 24 hours*

Efficacy analyses were performed using the FAS, except for incontinence episode endpoints, which used the FAS-I.²

* Data were based on unadjusted values for a supportive outcome measure that was a prescribed secondary endpoint in the pivotal EMPOWUR trial.²
ACh=anticholinergic; CFB=change from baseline; FAS=full analysis set; FAS-I=full analysis set for incontinence; OAB=overactive bladder; UUI=urge urinary incontinence.
