Durata Therapeutics, Inc. is an innovative new pharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of differentiated therapeutic solutions for physicians and other providers to advance patient care in infectious disease and acute illnesses.
Durata’s lead product, DALVANCE (dalbavancin) for injection, was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on May 23, 2014, for the treatment of adult patients with acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI). It was the first drug approved as a qualified infectious disease product, and became available for order on July 18, 2014.
“DALVANCE’s unique dosing regimen offers a new alternative for the treatment of serious skin infections by allowing patients, healthcare professionals, and hospitals to move beyond the standard daily or twice-daily IV antibiotic infusions,” said Paul R. Edick, Durata’s CEO. “We are very pleased that DALVANCE is now available to millions of Americans who may benefit from this innovative treatment option for ABSSSI.”
Important Safety Information
Contraindications: DALVANCE is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to dalbavancin.
Warnings and Precautions: Serious hypersensitivity (anaphylactic) and skin reactions have been reported with glycopeptide antibacterial agents, including DALVANCE; exercise caution in patients with known hypersensitivity to glycopeptides.
Rapid intravenous infusion of glycopeptide antibacterial agents can cause reactions, including flushing of the upper body, urticaria, pruritus, and rash.
ALT elevations with DALVANCE treatment were reported in clinical trials.
Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD) has been reported with nearly all systemic antibacterial agents, including DALVANCE. Evaluate if diarrhea occurs.
Adverse Reactions: The most common adverse reactions in patients treated with DALVANCE in Phase 2/3 clinical trials were nausea (5.5 percent), headache (4.7 percent), and diarrhea (4.4 percent).
Use in Specific Populations: In patients with renal impairment whose known creatinine clearance is less than 30 mL/min and who are not receiving regularly scheduled hemodialysis, the recommended two-dose regimen for DALVANCE is 750 mg followed one week later by 375 mg. No dosage adjustment is recommended for patients receiving regularly scheduled hemodialysis, and DALVANCE can be administered without regard to the timing of hemodialysis.
