ADMA Biologics, Inc. (Nasdaq: ADMA) (“ADMA” or the “Company”), an
end-to-end commercial biopharmaceutical company dedicated to
manufacturing, marketing, and developing specialty plasma-derived
biologics, today announced the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
(“FDA”) has approved the Company’s supplemental Biologics License
Application submitted under section 351(a) of the Public Health
Service Act for BIVIGAM. The FDA approval represents the final
study report for the Pediatric assessment as required in the post
marketing commitment. Additionally, the approval provides for a
revision of BIVIGAM’s prescribing information to expand the primary
humoral immunodeficiency (“PI”) indication to pediatric patients 2
years of age and older.
"We are pleased to announce that BIVIGAM has
received FDA approval for treating PI in patients aged 2 years and
older. Previously, the indication for BIVIGAM was restricted to PI
patients aged 12 years and older,” said Adam Grossman, President
and Chief Executive Officer of ADMA. “This expanded label for
BIVIGAM allows ADMA to actively address the treatment needs of
younger PI patients earlier in their treatment journey. In the
periods ahead, we look forward to offering BIVIGAM as an
FDA-approved treatment option for these pediatric PI patients,”
concluded Mr. Grossman.
“We extend our gratitude to the collaborative efforts of the PI
disease community, physicians, and the invaluable contribution of
the children and families who played a pivotal role in advancing
this clinical program,” said Kaitlin Kestenberg, Senior Vice
President, Compliance & Project Operations. “Enrolling and
successfully completing these challenging trials is no small feat,
and this approval is a testament to the commendable clinical
execution and the dedication of the ADMA team.”
About ADMA Biologics, Inc.
(ADMA)
ADMA Biologics is an end-to-end commercial
biopharmaceutical company dedicated to manufacturing, marketing and
developing specialty plasma-derived biologics for the treatment of
immunodeficient patients at risk for infection and others at risk
for certain infectious diseases. ADMA currently manufactures and
markets three United States Food and Drug Administration
(FDA)-approved plasma-derived biologics for the treatment of immune
deficiencies and the prevention of certain infectious diseases:
BIVIGAM® (immune globulin intravenous, human) for the treatment of
primary humoral immunodeficiency (PI); ASCENIV™ (immune globulin
intravenous, human – slra 10% liquid) for the treatment of PI; and
NABI-HB® (hepatitis B immune globulin, human) to provide enhanced
immunity against the hepatitis B virus. ADMA manufactures its
immune globulin products at its FDA-licensed plasma fractionation
and purification facility located in Boca Raton, Florida. Through
its ADMA BioCenters subsidiary, ADMA also operates as an
FDA-approved source plasma collector in the U.S., which provides
its blood plasma for the manufacture of its products. ADMA’s
mission is to manufacture, market and develop specialty
plasma-derived, human immune globulins targeted to niche patient
populations for the treatment and prevention of certain infectious
diseases and management of immune compromised patient populations
who suffer from an underlying immune deficiency, or who may be
immune compromised for other medical reasons. ADMA has received
U.S. Patents: 9,107,906, 9,714,283, 9,815,886, 9,969,793 and
10,259,865 and European Patent No. 3375789, among others, related
to certain aspects of its products and product candidates. For more

About BIVIGAM®
BIVIGAM (immune globulin intravenous, human –
10% liquid) is a plasma-derived, polyclonal, intravenous immune
globulin (IVIG). BIVIGAM was approved by the FDA in May 2019 and is
indicated for the treatment of primary humoral immunodeficiency
(PI), including, but not limited to the following group of genetic
disorders: X-linked and congenital agammaglobulinemia, common
variable immunodeficiency, Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome, and severe
combined immunodeficiency. BIVIGAM contains a broad range of
antibodies similar to those found in normal human plasma. These
antibodies are directed against bacteria and viruses and help to
protect PI patients against serious infections. BIVIGAM is a
purified, sterile, ready-to-use preparation of concentrated human
Immunoglobulin antibodies. Certain data and other information about
BIVIGAM® or ADMA Biologics and its products can be found on the

Additional Important Safety Information
About BIVIGAM®
WARNING: THROMBOSIS, RENAL DYSFUNCTION AND ACUTE RENAL FAILURE |
|
Thrombosis may occur with immune globulin intravenous (IGIV)
products, including BIVIGAM. Risk factors may include: advanced
age, prolonged immobilization, hypercoagulable conditions, a
history of venous or arterial thrombosis, use of estrogens,
indwelling vascular catheters, hyperviscosity and cardiovascular
risk factors.Renal dysfunction, acute renal failure, osmotic
nephrosis, and death may occur with the administration of Immune
Globulin Intravenous (Human) (IGIV) products in predisposed
patients.Renal dysfunction and acute renal failure occur more
commonly in patients receiving IGIV products containing sucrose.
BIVIGAM does not contain sucrose.For patients at risk of
thrombosis, renal dysfunction or renal failure, administer BIVIGAM
at the minimum dose and infusion rate practicable. Ensure adequate
hydration in patients before administration. Monitor for signs and
symptoms of thrombosis and assess blood viscosity in patients at
risk for hyperviscosity. |
BIVIGAM® Contraindications:
History of anaphylactic or severe systemic
reactions to human immunoglobulin.
IgA deficient patients with antibodies to IgA
and a history of hypersensitivity.
BIVIGAM® Warnings and
Precautions:
Thrombotic events have occurred in patients
receiving IGIV therapy. Monitor patients with known risk factors
for thrombotic events; consider baseline assessment of blood
viscosity for those at risk of hyperviscosity.
IgA deficient patients with antibodies against
IgA are at greater risk of developing severe hypersensitivity and
anaphylactic reactions. Have medications such as epinephrine
available immediately to treat any acute severe hypersensitivity
reactions.
Monitor renal function, including blood urea
nitrogen (BUN), serum creatinine, and urine output in patients at
risk of developing acute renal failure.
Hyperproteinemia, increased serum viscosity, and
hyponatremia or pseudohyponatremia can occur in patients receiving
IGIV therapy.
Aseptic meningitis syndrome (AMS) has been
reported with IGIV treatments, especially with high doses or rapid
infusion.
Hemolytic anemia can develop subsequent to
treatment with IGIV products. Monitor patients for hemolysis and
hemolytic anemia.
Monitor patients for pulmonary adverse reactions
(Transfusion-related acute lung injury [TRALI]). If
transfusion-related acute lung injury is suspected, test the
product and patient for antineutrophil antibodies.
Because this product is made from human blood,
it may carry a risk of transmitting infectious agents, e.g.,
viruses, and theoretically, the Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD)
agent.
BIVIGAM® Adverse Reactions:
The most common adverse reactions to BIVIGAM
(reported in ≥5% of clinical study subjects) were headache,
fatigue, infusion site reaction, nausea, sinusitis, blood pressure
increased, diarrhea, dizziness, and lethargy.
