Product description

BEQVEZ (fidanacogene elaparvovec-dzkt) is an adeno-associated virus (AAV)-based gene therapy for intravenous infusion. BEQVEZ is based on recombinant DNA technology that consists of a recombinant viral capsid (AAVRh74var) derived from a naturally occurring AAV serotype (Rh74) vector containing the human coagulation factor IX (FIX) transgene modified to a high-specific factor IX activity variant known as FIX-R338L. The AAVRh74var capsid is derived from the Rh74 AAV, which is not known to cause disease in humans.

Each BEQVEZ vial contains 1 × 1013 vector genomes (vg) per mL, and the excipients sodium chloride (10.5 mg/mL), sodium phosphate, monobasic, monohydrate (0.3 mg/mL), sodium phosphate, dibasic, heptahydrate (2.2 mg/mL), and Poloxamer 188 (0.01 mg/mL) in a 1 mL extractable volume. Each 1 mL of BEQVEZ injection contains less than 5 mg each of sodium and phosphorus.

BEQVEZ requires dilution prior to administration [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)]. BEQVEZ is packaged as a sterile suspension and contains no preservative.
