Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On June 25, 2012, AMAG Pharmaceuticals, Inc., or the Company, and Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited, or Takeda, entered into an Amendment to License, Development and Commercialization Agreement, or the Takeda Amendment, which amended and restated the existing License, Development and Commercialization Agreement and which amendment was deemed effective as of June 22, 2012. The License, Development and Commercialization Agreement with Takeda, dated March 31, 2010, was amended by the Takeda Amendment to, among other things, modify the territories under which Takeda has exclusive rights to develop and commercialize Feraheme® (ferumoxytol) Injection for Intravenous use as a therapeutic agent, amend the timing and pricing arrangements for a Supply Agreement to be entered into between the Company and Takeda in the future, amend the terms related to primary and secondary manufacturing sources for drug substance and drug product of ferumoxytol, amend certain patent related provisions, and change the allocation of certain of the agreed upon milestone payments.
The foregoing description of the Takeda Amendment contained in this Item 1.01 does not purport to be a complete description of the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the contract that is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference. Certain portions of this agreement have been omitted from this Current Report on Form 8-K and the version of the agreement attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto pursuant to a Confidential Treatment Request that the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission at the time of filing this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Item 2.05. Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.
On June 25, 2012, the Company announced plans to reduce its workforce by approximately 45 positions, the majority of which are expected to be associated with the Companys manufacturing and development infrastructure. The Company expects to incur approximately $1.0 million in severance related charges associated with the restructuring, including approximately $0.5 million associated with employees located at the Companys Cambridge, Massachusetts manufacturing facility, all of which are expected to be recognized during 2012. In addition, the Company announced plans to divest its Cambridge, Massachusetts manufacturing facility. At this time, the Company cannot provide an estimate of the total amount or range of amounts expected to be incurred in connection with its plan to divest its Cambridge, Massachusetts manufacturing facility or an estimate of the amount or range of amounts of the charges that will result in future cash expenditures with respect to such expected divestiture. The Company will file an amended report on Form 8-K under this Item 2.05 within four business days after it makes a
determination of such estimates or ranges of estimates with respect to the expected sale of such property.
A copy of the Companys press release is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Principal Officers, Election of Directors, Appointment of Principal Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On June 25, 2012, the Companys Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, or the Compensation Committee, approved long-term equity incentive awards in the form of incentive stock options for each of Lee F. Allen, M.D., Ph.D., Executive Vice President of Clinical Development, Scott A. Holmes, Vice President of Finance, Controller and Chief Accounting Officer and Christopher G. White, Chief Business Officer, each, an Executive, and together the Executives. Dr. Allen, Mr. Holmes and Mr. White were granted options to purchase 40,000, 30,000 and 40,000, respectively, shares of common stock under the terms and conditions of the Companys Second Amended and Restated 2007 Equity Incentive Plan, or the 2007 Plan, at an exercise price of $14.89, the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date of grant. The foregoing options have a seven year term and vest as follows: 25% on the first anniversary of the date of grant and the balance to vest over the following three years on a quarterly basis so that 6.25% of the option award shall vest as of the end of each subsequent three month period following such first anniversary of the date of grant.
In addition, as part of Dr. Allens incentive option award discussed above, the Companys Compensation Committee provided that if a supplemental new drug application, or sNDA, for the broad iron deficiency anemia, or IDA, indication for Feraheme is filed with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or the FDA, by the end of 2012, then 50% of the unvested portion of the option award made to Dr. Allen on June 25, 2012 that then remain unexercisable will become exercisable by accelerating the vesting of 50% of the shares with respect to each remaining vesting date. Additionally, if (1) FDA approval of the sNDA for the broad IDA indication for Feraheme is obtained by March 31, 2014 and (2) at the time of such approval Dr. Allen continues to be an employee or a service provider to the Company providing services with respect to the sNDA filing for the broad IDA indication for Feraheme, then all remaining shares subject to this option shall become exercisable.
In addition, as part of Mr. Whites incentive option award discussed above, the Companys Compensation Committee provided that if Mr. White continues to have primary responsibility over the Companys business development function and the Company acquires a product approved by the FDA that has generated at least $10 million in revenue during the 12 month period preceding the acquisition, whether by the acquisition of a company, acquisition of the product related assets or through a licensing transaction, then the vesting of 50% of the number of shares subject to the option award made to Mr. White on June 25, 2012 that then remain unexercisable will become exercisable by accelerating the vesting of 50% of the shares with respect to each remaining vesting date. If, after the transaction described in the preceding sentence has closed, and Mr. White continues to have primary responsibility over the Companys business development function, the Company acquires a second product in a transaction that (1)
would be required to be reported under item 1.01 of Form 8-K as a material contract or (2) is otherwise deemed by the Companys Board of Directors at the time of its approval to be of material importance to the Companys growth strategy, then all remaining shares subject to this option will become exercisable.
Copies of the Stock Option Agreements expected to be entered into between the Company and each of Dr. Allen and Mr. White with respect to such grants are filed herewith as Exhibits 10.2 and 10.3, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference. The option granted to Mr. Holmes was issued pursuant to the Companys previously filed form of Option Agreement.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
On June 22, 2012, the Company announced that the European Commission granted marketing authorization for ferumoxytol, an intravenous iron therapy to treat iron deficiency anemia in adult patients with chronic kidney disease. The marketing authorization follows a positive opinion, issued on April 19, 2012, by the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use of the European Medicines Agency.
The marketing authorization is valid in the current European Union Member States as well as in Iceland and Norway, and is based on data obtained from an extensive clinical development program. Takeda, the Companys licensee in Europe, plans to launch ferumoxytol in Europe under the brand name Rienso® in 2012. The European Union marketing authorization triggers a $15 million milestone payment to the Company from Takeda.
A copy of the Companys press release is filed as Exhibit 99.2 to this report and is incorporated herein by reference.

1.5 Amendments to Patent Term Extension Provisions. Section 9.4 of the Agreement is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:
9.4 Patent Term Extensions in the Licensed Territory. The JSC will discuss and recommend for which of the Patents within the AMAG Patents and Takeda Patents in the Licensed Territory the Parties should seek Patent Term Extensions in the Licensed Territory.

Except as required by applicable Laws, AMAG shall not withdraw any application for Patent Term Extension with respect to the Product after submission thereof without the prior written consent of Takeda. Any withdrawal of an application for Patent Term Extension will be deemed to be a rejection of such Patent Term Extension by the governmental agency having the authority to approve such Patent Term Extension. In the event that Patent Term Extension is subsequently approved upon re-application by AMAG, Takeda shall repay any amounts withheld from AMAG pursuant to 8.4(b) using the same payment schedule applicable to the period of time from initial rejection to final approval. Takeda shall cooperate fully with AMAG in making such filings or actions, for example and without limitation, by making available all required regulatory data and information and executing any required authorizations to apply for such Patent Term Extension.

1.6 Amendments to Schedules and Exhibits.
(a) Exhibit B of the Agreement is hereby replaced with Exhibit B-1 attached to this Amendment.

(c) The last sentence of Section 1 under the heading Manufacture and Quality Control in Schedule 7.2 of the Agreement is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:
The Product shall be manufactured according to specifications for the Product set forth in the Supply Agreement (Specifications).

Takeda shall notify AMAG of its consent or non-consent to a proposed Process Change within [***] days after receipt of AMAGs written notice of such proposed Process Change; provided, however, that Takeda shall be deemed not to have consented to such change if Takeda fails to provide a response to AMAG within such [***] day period. If, after the Amendment Effective Date, Takeda requests a Process Change, AMAG shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to accommodate such Process Change and, if AMAG implements such Process Change, shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to do so in a cost-effective manner.

If, after the Amendment Effective Date, the Parties agree to make any Process Change, other than a Process Change requested by Takeda or required to obtain or maintain Regulatory Approval for the Product in the Licensed Territory (which is addressed in the paragraph above), then AMAG shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to implement such Process Change in a cost-effective manner. If as a result of such change, the Fully

Burdened Manufacturing Cost [***] then [***]. With respect to any expenses incurred by AMAG in connection with such Process Change that are not included in the Fully Burdened Manufacturing Cost, (i) capital equipment expenditures will be shared as provided in Section 6 under the heading Price/Payment and (ii) with respect to the other expenses (such as for process development and validation of testing methods), the Parties shall reasonably allocate between the Parties such expenses to the Licensed Territory and to outside the Licensed Territory, based on Takedas most recent forecast volumes and AMAGs then-current estimate of Product volumes for outside the Licensed Territory, in each case for the subsequent [***] months.
(e) Sections 1 and 2 under the heading Second Source / Safety Stock in Schedule 7.2 of the Agreement are hereby deleted.

Stock Option Agreement |
|
|
Except as set forth in this paragraph, no additional shares shall vest and become exercisable between each of the vesting dates set forth above. In the event that the Supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) for the broad iron deficiency anemia (IDA) indication for Feraheme is filed with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) by the end of 2012 and Dr. Allen remains employed by the Company as of the filing date, then the vesting of 50% of the number of shares subject to the Option that then remain unexercisable shall become exercisable by accelerating the vesting of 50% of the shares with respect to each remaining vesting date. In the event that (1) FDA approval of the sNDA for the broad IDA indication for Feraheme is obtained by March 31, 2014 and (2) at the time of FDA approval, Dr. Allen continues to be an employee or a service provider to the Company providing services with respect to the sNDA filing for the broad IDA indication for Feraheme, then all shares subject to the Option that then remain unexercisable shall become exercisable.
3. Term of Option
Unless terminated earlier as provided in Section 6 below, this Option shall terminate in seven (7) years on June 25, 2019.
4. Exercise Price
The exercise price of this Option shall be fourteen dollars and eighty-nine cents ($14.89) per share.
5. Exercise and Payment
(a) Method of Payment. This Option shall be exercisable by delivery to the Company of written notice of exercise, specifying the number of shares for which this Option is being exercised (subject to Section 2 hereof), together with (i) payment to the Company for the total exercise price thereof in cash, by check, (ii) subject to the Companys approval, by Common Stock of the Company already owned by the Recipient, (iii) delivery of an irrevocable and unconditional undertaking by a creditworthy broker to deliver promptly to the Company sufficient funds to pay the exercise price, (iv) delivery by the Recipient to the Company of a copy of irrevocable and unconditional instructions to a creditworthy broker to deliver promptly to the Company cash or a check sufficient to pay the exercise price, or (v) by some combination thereof; provided that methods (iii) and (iv) shall only be permissible if the Companys Common Stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Market or other national securities exchange at such time.
(b) Valuation of Shares Tendered in Payment of Purchase Price. For the purposes hereof, the fair market value of any share of the Companys Common Stock which may be delivered to the Company in exercise of this Option shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, or, in the absence of such determination, shall be equal to the closing price of a share of the Companys Common Stock as reported on the
Nasdaq Global Market (or other national securities exchange or automated marketplace upon which the Companys Common Stock is then traded) on the date of exercise of this Option.
(c) Delivery of Shares Tendered in Payment of Purchase Price. If the Company permits the Recipient to exercise Options by delivery of shares of Common Stock of the Company, the certificate or certificates representing the shares of Common Stock of the Company to be delivered shall be duly executed in blank by the Recipient or shall be accompanied by a stock power duly executed in blank suitable for purposes of transferring such shares to the Company. Fractional shares of Common Stock of the Company will not be accepted in payment of the purchase price of shares acquired upon exercise of this Option.
(d) Use of Statutory Option Stock. Without derogating from the foregoing, statutory option stock (as defined below) may be tendered in payment of the exercise price of this Option even if the stock to be so tendered has not, at the time of tender, been held by the Recipient for the applicable minimum statutory holding period required to receive the tax benefits afforded under Section 421(a) of the Code with respect to such stock. The Recipient acknowledges that the tender of such statutory option stock may have adverse tax consequences to the Recipient. As used above, the term statutory option stock means stock acquired through the exercise of an incentive stock option or an option granted under an employee stock purchase plan. The tender of statutory option stock in payment of the exercise price of this Option shall be accompanied by written representation (in form satisfactory to the Company) stating whether such stock has been held by the Recipient for the applicable minimum statutory holding period.
6. Effect of Termination of Employment, Board Membership, or Service Provision or Death
This Option shall not be assignable or transferable either voluntarily or by operation of law, except as set forth in this Section 6. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Option may be transferred pursuant to a domestic relations order, provided, however, that an incentive stock option may be deemed to be a nonqualified stock option as a result of such transfer. Further, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Recipient may, by delivering written notice to the Company, in a form provided by or otherwise satisfactory to the Company, designate a third party who, in the event of the death of the Recipient, shall thereafter be the beneficiary of an Option with the right to exercise the Option and receive the Common Stock or other consideration resulting from an Option exercise.
In the event the Recipient during his or her lifetime ceases to be an employee, member of the Board of Directors, or other service provider of the Company or of any subsidiary for any reason, other than death or disability, any unexercised portion of this Option which was otherwise exercisable on the date of termination of employment shall expire unless exercised within three months of that date, but in no event after the expiration of the term hereof.
In the event of termination of employment, board membership, or service in any other capacity because of the death or disability of the Recipient (i) while an employee, board member, or service provider of the Company or any subsidiary, or (ii) during the three-month period following termination of his or her employment, status as a director, or status as a service provider for any reason other than death or disability, this Option shall be exercisable for the number of shares otherwise exercisable on the date of death, disability or termination, by the Recipient or his or her personal representatives, heirs or legatees, as the case may be, at any time prior to the expiration of one (1) year from the date of the death or disability of the Recipient, but in no event after the expiration of the term hereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Recipient, prior to the termination date of this Option, (i) violates any provision of any employment agreement or any confidentiality or other agreement between the Recipient and the Company, (ii) commits any felony or any crime involving fraud, dishonesty or moral turpitude under the laws of the United States or any state thereof, (iii) attempts to commit, or participate in, a fraud or act of dishonesty against the Company, or (iv) commits gross misconduct, the right to exercise this Option shall terminate immediately upon written notice to the Recipient from the Company describing such violation or act.
7. Employment, Board Membership or Service
Nothing contained in this Option or in the Plan shall be construed as giving the Recipient any right to be retained in the employ, board membership, or service of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
8. Withholding Taxes
The Recipient acknowledges and agrees that the Company has the right to deduct from payments of any kind otherwise due to the Recipient any federal, state or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to exercise of this Option.
9. Plan Provisions
Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, this Option and the rights of the Recipient hereunder shall be subject to and governed by the terms and provisions of the Plan, including without limitation the provisions of Section 4 thereof.
10. Recipient Representation; Stock Certificate Legend
The Recipient hereby represents that he or she has received and read the Prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as a part of the Registration Statement on Form S-8, which registered the shares under the Plan.
If the Recipient is an affiliate of the Company (as defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933), all stock certificates representing shares of Common Stock issued to such Recipient pursuant to this Option shall have affixed thereto legends substantially in the following form:
The shares represented by this certificate may be deemed to be held by an affiliate as defined by the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Act) and may not be sold, transferred or assigned unless such sale is pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act or an opinion of counsel, satisfactory to the corporation, is obtained to the effect that such sale, transfer or assignment is exempt from the registration requirements of the Act.
11. Notice
Any notice required to be given under the terms of this Option shall be properly addressed as follows: to the Company at its principal executive offices, and to the Recipient at his or her address set forth below, or at such other address as either of such parties may hereafter designate in writing to the other.
12. Qualification under Section 422
It is understood and intended that this Option shall qualify as an incentive stock option as defined in, and to the maximum extent permitted under, Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, the Recipient understands that in order to obtain the benefits of an incentive stock option under Section 421 of the Code, no sale or other disposition may be made of any shares acquired upon exercise of this Option within the one (1) year period beginning on the day after the day of the transfer of such shares to him or her, nor within the two (2) year period beginning on the day after the grant of this Option. If the Recipient intends to dispose or does dispose (whether by sale, exchange, gift, transfer or otherwise) of any such shares within said periods, he or she will notify the Company within thirty (30) days after such disposition.
13. Enforceability
This Option shall be binding upon the Recipient, his or her estate, and his or her personal representatives and beneficiaries.
14. Effective Date
The effective date of this Option is June 25, 2012.

Exhibit 99.1
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
AMAG Pharmaceuticals Realigns Operating Cost Structure to Focus on Continued Feraheme Growth and Business Development Activities
LEXINGTON, MA (June 25, 2012) AMAG Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMAG) today announced a number of changes to its operating expenses that further align its cost structure with the companys focus on advancing Feraheme® and expanding its product portfolio with commercial stage assets. First, AMAG is moving to an outsourced manufacturing model and intends to divest the companys manufacturing facility in Cambridge, MA. Additionally, the companys global phase III broad iron deficiency anemia (IDA) clinical program for Feraheme, which will support an sNDA filing later this year, will conclude this year. Along with the natural attrition of external development costs associated with the conclusion of the IDA development program, AMAG is reducing internal development expenses to match the reduced activities at this time, and will continue to adapt development resources to meet the companys future development needs.
The decision to eliminate positions is never easy and I want to thank the impacted individuals who have contributed greatly to AMAG over the years. Todays announcement signals a continuation of AMAGs transformation into a highly focused, commercially oriented specialty pharmaceutical company, said William Heiden, president and chief executive officer of AMAG. The actions that the company took in November 2011, coupled with the actions announced today, mark continuing progress in implementing a strategy to become a leaner and nimbler company focused on providing specialty drugs to hematology/oncology and hospital sites of care. These changes will allow AMAG to more efficiently make decisions, react quickly to changing market dynamics and rapidly identify and evaluate new product opportunities these are important changes that will help ensure our success in the short- and long-term.
Heiden continued, Our corporate structure, both in terms of financial and human resources, is now being brought into alignment with our corporate strategy. We are focusing these resources against two key priorities for the organization. First, advancing Feraheme across our four growth opportunities of increasing market share in our current indication in the US, pursuing a broader label expansion for all patients with IDA, geographic expansion through international launches and expansion of the IV iron market. We are also focusing aggressively on our second corporate priority of expanding our product portfolio with specialty drugs that fit into our commercial call points. I believe that the combination of Feraheme, our strong balance sheet and our experienced leadership team give us a very strong base from which to continue to build a profitable specialty pharmaceutical company the steps taken today demonstrate the real and continuing progress that we are making towards achieving this goal.
Plan Details
· By year-end 2012, AMAG expects to reduce its workforce by approximately 45 positions, the majority of which are expected to be associated with the companys manufacturing and development infrastructure. Some of the eliminated positions are budgeted, open positions that the company will not fill. The company expects to incur approximately $1.0 million in charges associated with the restructuring, which will be spread over the remainder of 2012, with $0.5 million expected to be recognized in the second quarter of 2012.
· With the intended divestiture of the companys manufacturing facility, AMAG will stop producing GastroMark and has entered into agreements with the commercial parties that sell GastroMark in the US and EU. AMAG will incur one-time costs associated with the GastroMark agreements of $1.6 million in the second quarter of 2012. The company expects to sell its Cambridge, MA manufacturing facility, which AMAG owns outright.
· The changes implemented in 2012, will result in reduced employee-related operating expenses beginning in 2013. In addition, external research and development expenses associated with the companys broad IDA clinical development program planned for 2012 will not recur, leading to further reductions in the companys 2013 operating expenses. The full impact of these reductions will be communicated when the company issues its 2013 financial guidance, later this year.
· The expected change in manufacturing supply chain strategy for the company will lower the costs associated with the manufacture of Feraheme. The company expects that these changes will result in lower costs of goods sold beginning in 2014.
The company may provide updated 2012 financial guidance when it reports second quarter financial results.

Exhibit 99.2
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Rienso® (Ferumoxytol) Receives European Marketing Authorization for the Treatment of Iron Deficiency Anemia in Adult Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease
Marketing Authorization Triggers $15 Million Milestone Payment to AMAG
LEXINGTON, MA (June 22, 2012) AMAG Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMAG) today announced that the European Commission has granted marketing authorization for ferumoxytol, an intravenous (IV) iron therapy to treat iron deficiency anemia (IDA) in adult patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The marketing authorization follows a positive opinion, issued on April 19, 2012, by the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency. Ferumoxytol was approved for the same indication in the US under the brand name Feraheme® in June 2009.
The marketing authorization is valid in the current European Union Member States as well as in Iceland and Norway, and is based on data obtained from an extensive clinical development program. Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited, AMAGs partner in Europe, plans to launch ferumoxytol in Europe under the brand name Rienso® in 2012. The EU marketing authorization triggers a $15 million milestone payment to AMAG from Takeda; the first commercial sale of Rienso® in Europe will trigger another $15 million milestone payment to AMAG. Additionally, AMAG is entitled to receive tiered, double-digit royalties on sales of Rienso® in the licensed territories.
AMAG has four significant organic growth opportunities for ferumoxytol continued share gains in the US CKD IDA market, international launches and market penetration, label expansion in the US and abroad, and overall IV iron market expansion, said William Heiden, president and chief executive officer of AMAG. We are very fortunate to have a committed partner with an outstanding reputation in the pharmaceutical industry responsible for the launch of ferumoxytol in many regions outside of the United States. Through Takedas efforts, patients outside the US with CKD will soon benefit from a new therapy to treat their IDA.
Iron deficiency is a common cause of anemia in CKD patients, and is very common in the later stages of CKD as renal function deteriorates and erythropoiesis (red blood cell production) declines. IDA can have a profound impact on patients lives, causing fatigue, shortness of breath and an increase in the risk of cardiovascular complications including congestive heart failure.(1) IV iron is recommended for use to increase hemoglobin levels in CKD patients with IDA. (1) Approximately one million grams of IV iron are administered to IDA patients in the EU each year.
While treatments for iron deficiency anemia have been widely available for many years, the disease continues to place a significant burden on the everyday life of CKD patients worldwide, and its management should be tailored to appropriately address the clinical consequences of this debilitating condition, said Francesco Locatelli, Scientific Director, Division of Nephrology and Dialysis, Alessandro Manzoni Hospital, Lecco, Italy. Ferumoxytol offers an effective alternative to current therapies in the management of anemia, and news of its approval will be warmly received by the European renal community.

Important Safety Information About Feraheme
Indication and contraindications
Feraheme is indicated for the treatment of iron deficiency anemia in adult patients with chronic kidney disease. Feraheme is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to Feraheme or any of its components.
Warnings and precautions
Serious hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylactic-type reactions, some of which have been life-threatening and fatal, have been reported in patients receiving Feraheme. Observe patients for signs and symptoms of hypersensitivity during and after Feraheme administration for at least 30 minutes and until clinically stable following completion of each administration. Only administer the drug when personnel
and therapies are immediately available for the treatment of anaphylaxis and other hypersensitivity reactions. Anaphylactic type reactions, presenting with cardiac/cardiorespiratory arrest, clinically significant hypotension, syncope, and unresponsiveness have been reported in the post-marketing experience. In clinical studies, serious hypersensitivity reactions were reported in 0.2% (3/1,726) of subjects receiving Feraheme. Other adverse reactions potentially associated with hypersensitivity (e.g., pruritus, rash, urticaria or wheezing) were reported in 3.7% (63/1,726) of subjects.
Severe adverse reactions of clinically significant hypotension have been reported in the post-marketing experience. In clinical studies, hypotension was reported in 1.9% (33/1,726) of subjects, including three patients with serious hypotensive reactions. Monitor for signs and symptoms of hypotension following each Feraheme injection. Excessive therapy with parenteral iron can lead to excess storage of iron with the possibility of iatrogenic hemosiderosis. Patients should be regularly monitored for hematologic response during parenteral iron therapy, noting that lab assays may overestimate serum iron and transferrin bound iron values in the 24 hours following administration of Feraheme. As a superparamagnetic iron oxide, Feraheme may transiently affect magnetic resonance diagnostic imaging studies for up to 3 months following the last Feraheme dose. Feraheme will not affect X-ray, CT, PET, SPECT, ultrasound, or nuclear imaging.
Adverse reactions
In clinical trials, the most commonly occurring adverse reactions in Feraheme treated patients versus oral iron treated patients reported in > 2% of chronic kidney disease patients were diarrhea (4.0% vs. 8.2%), nausea (3.1% vs. 7.5%), dizziness (2.6% vs. 1.8%), hypotension (2.5% vs. 0.4%), constipation (2.1% vs. 5.7%) and peripheral edema (2.0% vs. 3.2%). In clinical trials, adverse reactions leading to treatment discontinuation and occurring in 2 or more Feraheme treated patients included hypotension, infusion site swelling, increased serum ferritin level, chest pain, diarrhea, dizziness, ecchymosis, pruritus, chronic renal failure, and urticaria.
Post-marketing safety experience
The following adverse reactions have been identified during post-approval use of Feraheme. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.
The following serious adverse reactions have been reported from the post-marketing spontaneous reports with Feraheme: life-threatening anaphylactic-type reactions, cardiac/cardiorespiratory arrest, clinically significant hypotension, syncope, unresponsiveness, loss of consciousness, tachycardia/rhythm abnormalities, angioedema, ischemic myocardial events, congestive heart failure, pulse absent, and cyanosis. These adverse reactions have occurred up to 30 minutes after the administration of Feraheme injection. Reactions have occurred following the first dose or subsequent doses of Feraheme.
