There are no available data on the use of navepegritide in pregnant women to evaluate for a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. In animal reproduction studies, subcutaneous administration of navepegritide during the period of organogenesis in pregnant rats and rabbits resulted in no impact on embryo-fetal survival or congenital malformations at doses up to 10- and 7-fold, respectively, the exposure at the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD). Achondroplasia is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder with 100% penetrance.

Therefore, there is a 50% risk for a parent with achondroplasia to have a child with achondroplasia. The estimated background risk of birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defect, loss, or other adverse outcomes.

In the U.S. general population, the background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively.

There is no information available regarding the presence of navepegritide in human milk or regarding the potential effects on milk production or on the breastfed newborn/infant. High molecular weight therapeutic compounds, including navepegritide, are expected to have low passage into human milk. Further, no or low anticipated oral absorption of navepegritide will limit any systemic bioavailability in the breastfed newborn/infant. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother's clinical need for navepegritide and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from the drug or from the underlying maternal condition.
