Parameters Details
Indications and Usage ORILISSA is a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) receptor antagonist indicated for the management of moderate to severe pain associated with endometriosis.
Dosage and Administration Normal liver function or mild hepatic impairment: 150 mg once daily for up to 24 months or 200 mg twice daily for up to 6 months.
Moderate hepatic impairment: 150 mg once daily for up to 6 months.
Mechanism of action ORILISSA is a GnRH receptor antagonist that inhibits endogenous GnRH signaling by binding competitively to GnRH receptors in the pituitary gland. Administration of ORILISSA results in dose-dependent suppression of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), leading to decreased blood concentrations of the ovarian sex hormones, estradiol and progesterone.
Absorption Effect of high-fat meal (relative to fasting): AUC: ↓24%, Cmax: ↓36%
Food Effect -
Distribution % Bound to human plasma proteins : 80
Blood-to-plasma ratio : 0.6
Metabolism CYP3A (major) Minor pathways include: CYP2D6, CYP2C8, and uridine glucuronosyl transferases (UGTs)
Elimination Major route of elimination: Hepatic metabolism
% of dose excreted in urine: <3
% of dose excreted in feces: 90
Peak plasma time (Tmax)1.0 hours
Half life4-6 hours
Bioavailability-
Age, gender Elagolix exposures (Cmax and AUC) are not altered by renal impairment. The mean exposures are similar for women with moderate to severe or end stage renal disease (including women on dialysis) compared to women with normal renal function.
