4.2 Drug Warning

Simeprevir contains a sulfonamide moiety. In clinical trials of simeprevir, an increased incidence of rash or photosensitivity was not observed in the 16 patients who had a history of sulfa allergy. However, data are insufficient to exclude an association between sulfa allergy and the frequency or severity of adverse reactions reported with simeprevir.

American Society of Health-System Pharmacists 2015; Drug Information 2015. Bethesda, MD. 2015, p. 807


During the 12 weeks of treatment with Olysio, dyspnea was reported in 12% of Olysio-treated subjects compared to 8% of placebo-treated subjects (all grades; pooled Phase 3 trials). All dyspnea events reported in Olysio-treated subjects were of mild or moderate severity (Grade 1 or 2). There were no Grade 3 or 4 dyspnea events reported and no subjects discontinued treatment with Olysio due to dyspnea. Sixty-one percent (61%) of dyspnea events occurred in the first 4 weeks of treatment with Olysio.

NIH; DailyMed. Current Medication Information for Olysio (Simeprevir) Capsule (Revised: November 2014). Available from, as of March 18, 2015: https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/drugInfo.cfm?setid=1816fd68-0ed7-4a37-84bb-e298c5ab6e28


Adverse effects reported in more than 20% of patients receiving simeprevir in conjunction with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin in clinical trials and occurring with an incidence at least 3% higher than that reported in patients receiving placebo in conjunction with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin include rash (including photosensitivity), pruritus, and nausea.

American Society of Health-System Pharmacists 2015; Drug Information 2015. Bethesda, MD. 2015, p. 808


Rash has been reported in patients receiving simeprevir in conjunction with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin. Rash occurred most frequently during the first 4 weeks of treatment, but can occur at any time during the course of treatment. Rash generally was mild or moderate in severity, but severe rash and rash requiring discontinuance of the drug have been reported. Patients with mild to moderate rash should be monitored for possible progression (e.g., development of oral lesions, conjunctivitis, systemic symptoms). If rash becomes severe, simeprevir should be discontinued. Patients should be monitored until rash resolves.

5.4 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

Simeprevir is extensively bound to plasma proteins (greater than 99.9%), primarily to albumin and, to a lesser extent, alfa 1-acid glycoprotein. Plasma protein binding is not meaningfully altered in patients with renal or hepatic impairment.

NIH; DailyMed. Current Medication Information for Olysio (Simeprevir) Capsule (Revised: November 2014). Available from, as of March 18, 2015: https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/drugInfo.cfm?setid=1816fd68-0ed7-4a37-84bb-e298c5ab6e28


Administration of simeprevir with food to healthy subjects increased the relative bioavailability (AUC) by 61% and 69% after a high-fat, high-caloric (928 kcal) and normal-caloric (533 kcal) breakfast, respectively, and delayed the absorption by 1 hour and 1.5 hours, respectively. Due to increased bioavailability, Olysio should be administered with food. The type of food does not affect exposure to simeprevir.

NIH; DailyMed. Current Medication Information for Olysio (Simeprevir) Capsule (Revised: November 2014). Available from, as of March 18, 2015: https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/drugInfo.cfm?setid=1816fd68-0ed7-4a37-84bb-e298c5ab6e28


Elimination of simeprevir occurs via biliary excretion. Renal clearance plays an insignificant role in its elimination. Following a single oral administration of 200 mg (14)C-simeprevir to healthy subjects, on average 91% of the total radioactivity was recovered in feces. Less than 1% of the administered dose was recovered in urine. Unchanged simeprevir in feces accounted for on average 31% of the administered dose.

NIH; DailyMed. Current Medication Information for Olysio (Simeprevir) Capsule (Revised: November 2014). Available from, as of March 18, 2015: https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/drugInfo.cfm?setid=1816fd68-0ed7-4a37-84bb-e298c5ab6e28


In animals, simeprevir is extensively distributed to gut and liver (liver:blood ratio of 29:1 in rat) tissues. In vitro data and physiologically-based pharmacokinetic modeling and simulations indicate that hepatic uptake in humans is mediated by OATP1B1/3.

5.5 Metabolism/Metabolites

Following a single oral administration of 200 mg (1.3 times the recommended dosage) (14)C-simeprevir to healthy subjects, the majority of the radioactivity in plasma (mean: 83%) was accounted for by unchanged drug and a small part of the radioactivity in plasma was related to metabolites (none being major metabolites). Metabolites identified in feces were formed via oxidation at the macrocyclic moiety or aromatic moiety or both and by O-demethylation followed by oxidation.

NIH; DailyMed. Current Medication Information for Olysio (Simeprevir) Capsule (Revised: November 2014). Available from, as of March 18, 2015: https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/drugInfo.cfm?setid=1816fd68-0ed7-4a37-84bb-e298c5ab6e28


Simeprevir is metabolized in the liver. In vitro experiments with human liver microsomes indicated that simeprevir primarily undergoes oxidative metabolism by the hepatic CYP3A system. Involvement of CYP2C8 and CYP2C19 cannot be excluded. Co-administration of Olysio with moderate or strong inhibitors of CYP3A may significantly increase the plasma exposure of simeprevir, and co-administration with moderate or strong inducers of CYP3A may significantly reduce the plasma exposure of simeprevir.

NIH; DailyMed. Current Medication Information for Olysio (Simeprevir) Capsule (Revised: November 2014). Available from, as of March 18, 2015: https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/drugInfo.cfm?setid=1816fd68-0ed7-4a37-84bb-e298c5ab6e28


The in vitro metabolism of 14C-TMC435 was investigated in hepatocytes and liver microsomes of mouse, rat, rabbit, monkey and human. The metabolic activity reported in vitro from animals and man was low. Phase II conjugation pathways of Phase I metabolites were formed in hepatocytes. Parent TMC435 was found in much greater levels than any metabolite in vitro. More than 20 metabolites were identified. The metabolic Phase I route of highest importance were O-demethylation of unchanged drug (particularly in animals), oxidation of unchanged drug and oxidized metabolites (particularly in monkey and man) and glucuronidation was the major Phase II of oxidized metabolites (less in human). Only one human metabolite identified in vitro not seen in rat or dog was M22 (oxidized unchanged drug) but this metabolite was identified in rat (feces). In vivo data reveals that the main moiety present in plasma of rat, dog and man was parent TMC435. The major metabolites reported in vivo in plasma from animals and human were M18 and M21. O-desmethyl-TMC435 M21 was the only common circulating metabolite found in rat dog and human plasma (M21: 8% of the mean TMC435 plasma and only small traces in dogs), while M18 was common to plasma of rats and dogs but with respect to the parent compound they appeared with low concentrations (M18: between 28.9% and 12.5% in rats, with only small traces in dogs). Only traces of metabolites M18, M21 and M8 formed by O-demethylation and oxidation at the aromatic moiety were reported in dog plasma. M21 represents less than 10% of unchanged drug and also total radioactivity therefore systemic exposure to M21 was not assessed in the safety evaluation studies. M21 did not appear to accumulate in man. In bile from rats, moderately high levels of parent compound were reported (0.11 to 17.2%). TMC435 metabolites in this matrix were formed mainly by hydroxylation and O-demethylation and also by glucuronidation.

European Medicines Agency (EMA), Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP), European Public Assessment Report (EPAR): Olysio (Simeprevir); p.19-20 (March 20, 2014). Available from, as of March 23, 2015: https://www.ema.europa.eu/docs/en_GB/document_library/EPAR_-_Public_assessment_report/human/002777/WC500167870.pdf


The most important metabolic route TMC435 in rat and dog was O-demethylation of the parent drug to M18 (12.8%- 6.4% male-female rats; 18.8% dogs). In rats other metabolites were formed by oxidation of M18 and oxidation of unchanged drug. In dogs, further oxidation of M18 to M14 and M8, and of the unchanged drug to M21, M16 and M11 were also reported as minor routes. The human metabolism profile suggests that TMC435 is mainly metabolized by two main routes, (1) oxidation of unchanged drug, either at the macrocyclic moiety (M27, M21 and M22), or at the aromatic moiety (M26 and M16), or both (M23, M24, M25 and M11) and (2) the O-demethylation of unchanged drug to M18, followed by oxidation on the macrocyclic moiety to M14 and by oxidation on the aromatic moiety to M5, appears to be the secondary metabolic pathway in man. M21 and M22 were the most important metabolites in human faeces. Other relevant metabolites (1% of the dose) were M11, M16, M27 and M18. All metabolites detected in human feces were detected in vitro and/or in vivo in rat and/or dog feces. The main CYP enzymes involved in TMC435 metabolism were CYP3A enzymes although in vitro data suggests the involvement of CYP2C8 and CYP2C19.

5.7 Mechanism of Action

Simeprevir sodium is a selective hepatitis C virus (HCV) nonstructural 3/4A (NS3/4A) protease inhibitor (PI). The drug is a direct-acting antiviral (DAA) with activity against HCV. Simeprevir binds noncovalently to the active site of HCV NS3/4A protease, thereby blocking enzyme activity essential for viral replication (i.e., cleavage of the HCV-encoded polyprotein at the NS3/NS4A, NS4A/NS4B, NS4A/NS5A, and NS5A/NS5B junctions). In vitro studies using biochemical and cell-based replicon assays indicate that simeprevir has potent activity against HCV genotypes 1a and 1b1 5 8 9 and has some activity against HCV genotypes 2, 4, 5, and 6 (not genotype 3).
