What is Jascayd?
From the FDA label:JASCAYD (nerandomilast tablets), for oral administration, contain nerandomilast, a phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) inhibitor. The chemical name of nerandomilast is [1-[[(5R)-2-[4-(5-chloropyrimidin-2-yl)-1-piperidyl]-5-oxo-6,7-dihydrothieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4-yl]amino]cyclobutyl]methanol. Nerandomilast has one chiral center and is the R-stereoisomer. Its structural formula is: Nerandomilast is a white to off-white to light yellow powder with an empirical formula of C 20 H 25 ClN 6 O 2 S and a molecular weight of 449 g/mol. At or below pH 3, nerandomilast is very slightly to slightly soluble in water, and above pH 3 it is practically insoluble. Each film-coated tablet of JASCAYD contains 9 mg or 18 mg of nerandomilast and the following inactive ingredients: croscarmellose sodium, ferric oxide red (18 mg tablets only), ferric oxide yellow (9 mg tablets only), ferrosoferric oxide (18 mg tablets only), hydroxypropyl cellulose, hypromellose, lactose monohydrate, magnesium stearate, mannitol, microcrystalline cellulose, polyethylene glycol, and talc.

( 2.1 , 7.1 ) Swallow tablets whole or dispersed in water. ( 2.1 ) See full prescribing information for dosage modification for concomitant use with CYP3A inhibitors and administration instructions for patients who have difficulty swallowing tablets. ( 2.2 , 2.3 ) 2.1 Recommended Dosage The recommended dosage of JASCAYD is 18 mg twice daily, administered orally (swallow tablets whole or dispersed in water) approximately 12 hours apart, with or without food. Reduce JASCAYD to 9 mg twice daily for patients who are unable to tolerate 18 mg twice daily, except in patients who concomitantly use JASCAYD with pirfenidone.

Side effects
Most common adverse reactions (≥5%) are diarrhea, COVID-19, upper respiratory tract infection, depression, weight decreased, decreased appetite, nausea, fatigue, headache, vomiting, back pain, and dizziness. ( 6.1 ) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals, Inc. at (800) 542-6257 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch . 6.1 Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice. Adverse Reactions for Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis The safety of JASCAYD was based on a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial (FIBRONEER-IPF), which included 1,177 adult patients with IPF who were randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive JASCAYD 9 mg twice daily, JASCAYD 18 mg twice daily, or matching placebo. Patients received JASCAYD or placebo with or without background antifibrotic treatment (nintedanib or pirfenidone) for at least 52 weeks [see Clinical Studies (14.1) ] . The median duration of exposure was 14 months in each treatment arm. Discontinuation due to adverse reactions occurred more frequently in patients treated with JASCAYD (with or without background antifibrotic treatment) 18 mg (15%) and 9…

Overdose — what happens if you take too much
In the event of an overdosage with JASCAYD, monitor the patient for any signs or symptoms of adverse reactions and provide appropriate symptomatic treatment. Consider contacting the Poison Help line (1-800-222-1222) or a medical toxicologist for additional overdosage management recommendations.

Interactions
Strong CYP3A Inhibitors : Reduce JASCAYD dosage to 9 mg twice daily. ( 2.2 , 7.1 ) Moderate or Strong CYP3A Inducers : Avoid concomitant use with JASCAYD. ( 7.1 ) 7.1 Effects of Other Drugs on JASCAYD Strong CYP3A Inhibitors Reduce the dosage of JASCAYD to 9 mg twice daily when used concomitantly with strong CYP3A inhibitors [see Dosage and Administration (2.2) ] . Nerandomilast is a CYP3A substrate. Concomitant use of JASCAYD with a strong CYP3A inhibitor increases exposure of nerandomilast, which may increase the risk of JASCAYD adverse reactions [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ]. Moderate or Strong CYP3A Inducers Avoid use of JASCAYD with strong or moderate CYP3A inducers. Nerandomilast is a CYP3A substrate. Concomitant use of JASCAYD with moderate or strong CYP3A inducers is expected to decrease exposure of nerandomilast, which may decrease the efficacy of JASCAYD [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] . Pirfenidone Recommended dosage of JASCAYD is 18 mg twice daily when used concomitantly with pirfenidone. Do not reduce the dosage to 9 mg twice daily [see Dosage and Administration (2.1) ] . Concomitant use of JASCAYD with pirfenidone decreases exposure of nerandomilast [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3) ] . When JASCAYD was used concomitantly with pirfenidone in patients with IPF in FIBRONEER-IPF, efficacy was not observed with the JASCAYD 9 mg twice daily dosage [see Clinical Studies (14.1) ] .
