1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE TRULICITY ® is indicated: As an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults and pediatric patients 10 years of age and older with type 2 diabetes mellitus. To reduce the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, or non-fatal stroke) in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus who have established cardiovascular disease or multiple cardiovascular risk factors. TRULICITY ® is a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist indicated : As an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults and pediatric patients 10 years of age and older with type 2 diabetes mellitus. To reduce the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus who have established cardiovascular disease or multiple cardiovascular risk factors.

Adult Dosage Recommended starting dosage is 0.75 mg injected subcutaneously once weekly. After 4 weeks, the dosage may be increased to 1.5 mg once weekly for additional glycemic control. If additional glycemic control is needed, increase dosage in 1.5 mg increments after at least 4 weeks on the current dosage. Maximum recommended dosage is 4.5 mg injected subcutaneously once weekly. Pediatric Dosage Recommended starting dosage is 0.75 mg injected subcutaneously once weekly. If additional glycemic control is needed, increase dosage to the maximum recommended dosage of 1.5 mg once weekly after at least 4 weeks on the 0.75 mg dosage. Recommendations Regarding Missed Dose If a dose is missed, administer the missed dose as soon as possible if there are at least 3 days (72 hours) until the next scheduled dose. Important Administration Instructions Administer once weekly at any time of day with or without food. Inject subcutaneously in the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm. 2.1 Adult Dosage The recommended starting dosage of TRULICITY is 0.75 mg injected subcutaneously once weekly. Follow the dosage escalation below to reduce the risk of gastrointestinal adverse reactions [see Warnings and Precautions and Adverse Reactions ]. After 4 weeks, the dosage may be increased to 1.5 mg once weekly for additional glycemic control. If additional glycemic control is needed, increase the dosage in 1.5 mg increments after at least 4 weeks on the current dosage. The maximum recommended dosage is 4.5 mg injected subcutaneously once weekly. 2.2 Pediatric Dosage The recommended starting dosage of TRULICITY is 0.75 mg injected subcutaneously once weekly. If additional glycemic control is needed, increase the dosage to the maximum recommended dosage of 1.5 mg once weekly after at least 4 weeks on the 0.75 mg dosage to reduce the risk of gastrointestinal adverse reactions [see Warnings and Precautions and Adverse Reactions ] . 2.3 Recommendations Regarding Missed Dose If a dose is missed, instruct patients to administer the dose as soon as possible if there are at least 3 days (72 hours) until the next scheduled dose. If less than 3 days remain before the next scheduled dose, skip the missed dose and administer the next dose on the regularly scheduled day. In each case, patients can then resume their regular once weekly dosing schedule. The day of weekly administration can be changed, if necessary, as long as the last dose was administered 3 or more days before the new day of administration. 2.4 Important Administration Instructions Prior to initiation, train patients and caregivers on proper injection technique [see Instructions for Use] . Administer TRULICITY once weekly, any time of day, with or without food. Inject TRULICITY subcutaneously in the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm. Rotate injection sites with each dose. Inspect TRULICITY visually before use. It should appear clear and colorless. Do not use TRULICITY if particulate matter or coloration is seen. When using TRULICITY with insulin, administer as separate injections and never mix. It is acceptable to inject TRULICITY and insulin in the same body region, but the injections should not be adjacent to each other.

12.1 Mechanism of Action TRULICITY contains dulaglutide, which is a human GLP-1 receptor agonist with 90% amino acid sequence homology to endogenous human GLP-1 (7-37). Dulaglutide activates the GLP-1 receptor, a membrane-bound cell-surface receptor coupled to adenylyl cyclase in pancreatic beta cells. Dulaglutide increases intracellular cyclic AMP (cAMP) in beta cells leading to glucose-dependent insulin release. Dulaglutide also decreases glucagon secretion and slows gastric emptying.

Adverse Reactions in the Clinical Trials in Adults with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Pool of Adult Placebo-Controlled Trials for TRULICITY 0.75 mg and 1.5 mg Doses The data in Table 1 are derived from a pool of placebo-controlled trials and include 1,670 adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus exposed to TRULICITY with a mean duration of exposure of 23.8 weeks [see Clinical Studies ] . The mean age of patients was 56 years, 1% were 75 years or older and 53% were male. The population was 69% White, 7% Black or African American, 13% Asian; 30% were of Hispanic or Latino ethnicity. At baseline, the population had diabetes for an average of 8 years, a mean HbA1c of 8.0%, and 2.5% of the population reported retinopathy. Baseline estimated renal function was normal or mildly impaired (eGFR ≥60 mL/min/1.73 m 2 ) in 96%. Table 1 shows adverse reactions, excluding hypoglycemia, occurring in ≥5% of TRULICITY treated adult patients and more commonly than placebo in a pool of placebo-controlled trials.

5.6 Gastrointestinal Adverse Reactions In the pool of placebo-controlled trials, gastrointestinal (GI) adverse reactions occurred more frequently among patients who received TRULICITY compared to patients who received placebo (placebo 21%, 0.75 mg 32%, 1.5 mg 41%). A higher percentage of patients who received TRULICITY 0.75 mg (1.3%) and TRULICITY 1.5 mg (3.5%) discontinued treatment due to GI adverse reactions than patients who received placebo (0.2%). Investigators graded the severity of GI adverse reactions that occurred in those treated with 0.75 mg and 1.5 mg of TRULICITY as “mild” in 58% and 48% of cases, respectively, “moderate” in 35% and 42% of cases, respectively, or “severe” in 7% and 11% of cases, respectively. The following GI adverse reactions were reported more frequently in TRULICITY-treated patients than placebo -treated patients (frequencies listed, respectively, as: placebo; 0.75 mg; 1.5 mg): constipation (0.7%, 3.9%, 3.7%), flatulence (1.4%, 1.4%, 3.4%), abdominal distension (0.7%, 2.9%, 2.3%), gastroesophageal reflux disease (0.5%, 1.7%, 2.0%), and eructation (0.2%, 0.6%, 1.6%). Adult Dose Ranging Trial for TRULICITY 3 mg and 4.5 mg Doses Table 2 shows adverse reactions occurring ≥5% in any of the treatment groups through 36 weeks in a clinical trial with 1842 adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus treated with TRULICITY 1.5 mg, 3 mg, or 4.5 mg subcutaneously once weekly as an add-on to metformin [see Clinical Studies ] . The adverse reaction profile is consistent with previous clinical trials in adults.

2.6 Other Adverse Reactions in Adults Hypoglycemia Table 3 summarizes the incidence of hypoglycemia in the placebo-controlled clinical studies in adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: episodes with a glucose level <54 mg/dL with or without symptoms, and severe hypoglycemia, defined as an episode requiring the assistance of another person to actively administer carbohydrate, glucagon, or other resuscitative actions. Table 3: Incidence (%) of Hypoglycemia in Adult Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in Placebo-Controlled Trials Placebo TRULICITY 0.75 mg TRULICITY 1.5 mg Add-on to Metformin (26 weeks) N=177 N=302 N=304 Hypoglycemia with a glucose level <54 mg/dL 0 0.3 0.7 Severe hypoglycemia 0 0 0 Add-on to Metformin + Pioglitazone (26 weeks) N=141 N=280 N=279 Hypoglycemia with a glucose level <54 mg/dL 1.4 2.1 0 Severe hypoglycemia 0 0 0 Add-on to Glimepiride (24 weeks) N=60 - N=239 Hypoglycemia with a glucose level <54 mg/dL 0 - 3.3 Severe hypoglycemia 0 - 0 In Combination with Insulin Glargine ± Metformin (28 weeks) N=150 - N=150 Hypoglycemia with a glucose level <54 mg/dL 9.3 - 14.7 Severe hypoglycemia 0 - 0.7 Add-on to SGLT2i ± Metformin (24 weeks) N=140 N=141 N=142 Hypoglycemia with a glucose level <54 mg/dL 0.7 0.7 0.7 Severe hypoglycemia 0 0.7 0 Hypoglycemia was more frequent when TRULICITY was used in combination with a sulfonylurea or insulin than when used with non-secretagogues. In a 78-week adult clinical trial, hypoglycemia (glucose level <54 mg/dL) occurred in 20% and 21% of patients when TRULICITY 0.75 mg and 1.5 mg, respectively, were co-administered with a sulfonylurea. Severe hypoglycemia occurred in 0% and 0.7% of patients when TRULICITY 0.75 mg and 1.5 mg, respectively, were co-administered with a sulfonylurea. In a 52-week adult clinical trial, hypoglycemia (glucose level <54 mg/dL) occurred in 77% and 69% of patients when TRULICITY 0.75 mg and 1.5 mg, respectively, were co-administered with prandial insulin. Severe hypoglycemia occurred in 2.7% and 3.4% of patients when TRULICITY 0.75 mg and 1.5 mg, respectively, were co-administered with prandial insulin. Refer to Table 3 for the incidence of hypoglycemia in patients treated in combination with basal insulin glargine. In the clinical trial with adult patients on TRULICITY 1.5 mg, TRULICITY 3 mg, or TRULICITY 4.5 mg once weekly, as add-on to metformin, incidences of hypoglycemia (glucose level <54 mg/dL) through 36 weeks were 1.1%, 0.3%, and 1.1%, respectively, and incidences of severe hypoglycemia were 0.2%, 0%, and 0.2%, respectively. Cholelithiasis and Cholecystitis In a cardiovascular outcomes trial in adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and established cardiovascular (CV) disease or multiple cardiovascular risk factors with a median follow up of 5.4 years [see Clinical Studies 14.5 ] , cholelithiasis occurred at a rate of 0.62/100 patient-years in TRULICITY-treated patients and 0.56/100 patient-years in placebo-treated patients after adjusting for prior cholecystectomy. Serious events of acute cholecystitis were reported in 0.5% and 0.3% of patients on TRULICITY and placebo respectively. Heart Rate Increase and Tachycardia-Related Adverse Reactions In adult patients, TRULICITY 0.75 mg and 1.5 mg resulted in a mean increase in heart rate (HR) of 2-4 beats per minute (bpm). Adverse reactions of sinus tachycardia were reported more frequently in patients exposed to TRULICITY. Sinus tachycardia was reported in 3.0%, 2.8%, and 5.6% of patients treated with placebo, TRULICITY 0.75 mg and TRULICITY 1.5 mg, respectively. Persistence of sinus tachycardia (reported at more than 2 visits) was reported in 0.2%, 0.4% and 1.6% of patients treated with placebo, TRULICITY 0.75 mg and TRULICITY 1.5 mg, respectively. Episodes of sinus tachycardia, associated with a concomitant increase from baseline in heart rate of ≥15 beats per minute, were reported in 0.7%, 1.3% and 2.2% of patients treated with placebo, TRULICITY 0.75 mg and TRULICITY 1.5 mg, respectively. Hypersensitivity Systemic hypersensitivity adverse reactions, sometimes severe (e.g., severe urticaria, systemic rash, facial edema, lip swelling), occurred in 0.5% of adult patients on TRULICITY in clinical studies. Injection-site Reactions In the placebo-controlled studies in adults, injection-site reactions (e.g., injection-site rash, erythema) were reported in 0.5% of TRULICITY-treated patients and in 0.0% of placebo-treated patients. PR Interval Prolongation and Adverse Reactions of First-Degree Atrioventricular (AV) Block A mean increase from baseline in PR interval of 2-3 milliseconds was observed in TRULICITY-treated adult patients in contrast to a mean decrease of 0.9 milliseconds in placebo-treated patients. The adverse reaction of first-degree AV block occurred more frequently in patients treated with TRULICITY than placebo (0.9%, 1.7% and 2.3% for placebo, TRULICITY 0.75 mg and TRULICITY 1.5 mg, respectively). On electrocardiograms, a PR interval increase to at least 220 milliseconds was observed in 0.7%, 2.5% and 3.2% of patients treated with placebo, TRULICITY 0.75 mg and TRULICITY 1.5 mg, respectively. Acute Pancreatitis In a pooled analysis from the original registration studies, 12 (3.4 cases per 1,000 patient years) pancreatitis-related adverse reactions were reported in patients exposed to TRULICITY versus 3 in non-incretin comparators (2.7 cases per 1000 patient years). An analysis of adjudicated events revealed 5 cases of confirmed pancreatitis in patients exposed to TRULICITY (1.4 cases per 1,000 patient years) versus 1 case in non-incretin comparators (0.88 cases per 1,000 patient years). Based on an analysis of adjudicated events in a clinical trial evaluating Trulicity 1.5 mg, 3 mg, or 4.5 mg once weekly, pancreatitis occurred in 1 patient exposed to TRULICITY 1.5 mg (0.2%), in 2 patients exposed to TRULICITY 3 mg (0.3%), and 3 patients exposed to TRULICITY 4.5 mg (0.5%). Amylase and Lipase Increase Adult patients exposed to TRULICITY had mean increases from baseline in lipase and/or pancreatic amylase of 14% to 20%, while placebo-treated patients had mean increases of up to 3%. Adverse Reactions in the Clinical Trial of Pediatric Patients 10 Years of Age and Older with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus TRULICITY was administered to 150 pediatric patients 10 years of age and older with type 2 diabetes mellitus for a mean duration of 41.3 weeks [ see Clinical Studies ]. The mean age was 14.5 years and 71% of patients were female. Overall, 55% were White, 15% were Black or African American, 12% were Asian, 10% were American Indian or Alaska Native, 5% were other races, and 3% had unknown race. Additionally, 55% were Hispanic or Latino, 42% were not Hispanic or Latino, and 3% had unknown ethnicity. At baseline, the mean duration of type 2 diabetes mellitus was 2 years, mean HbA1c was 8.1%, mean weight was 90.5 kg and mean BMI was 34.1 kg/m 2 . The safety profile in pediatric patients treated with TRULICITY 0.75 mg and 1.5 mg subcutaneously once-weekly was consistent with that described above for adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with the exception of injection site reactions. In pediatric patients, the incidence of injection site reactions was 3.9% (2 patients) in the TRULICITY 0.75 mg group, 3.8% (2 patients) in the TRULICITY 1.5 mg group, and 2.0% (1 patient) in the placebo group. 6.2 Postmarketing Experience The following additional adverse reactions have been reported during post-approval use of TRULICITY. Because these events are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is generally not possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure. Gastrointestinal: acute pancreatitis, hemorrhagic and necrotizing pancreatitis sometimes resulting in death, ileus Hepatobiliary: cholecystitis, cholelithiasis requiring cholecystectomy, cholestasis, elevation of liver enzymes, hepatitis Hypersensitivity: anaphylactic reactions, angioedema Neurologic : dysgeusia, dysesthesia Pulmonary: Pulmonary aspiration has occurred in patients receiving GLP-1 receptor agonists undergoing elective surgeries or procedures requiring general anesthesia or deep sedation Renal: acute renal failure or worsening of chronic renal failure, sometimes requiring hemodialysis Skin and Subcutaneous Tissue: alopecia

Oral Medications: Delays gastric emptying and has the potential to reduce the rate of absorption of concomitantly administered oral medications . 7.1 Oral Medications TRULICITY delays gastric emptying and thus has the potential to reduce the rate of absorption of concomitantly administered oral medications. The delay in gastric emptying is dose-dependent but is attenuated with the recommended dose escalation to higher doses of TRULICITY [see Dosage and Administration ] . The delay is largest after the first dose and diminishes with subsequent doses. In clinical pharmacology studies, TRULICITY 1.5 mg did not affect the absorption of the tested orally administered medications to a clinically relevant degree [see Clinical Pharmacology ] . There is limited experience with the use of concomitant medications in clinical trials with TRULICITY doses of 3 mg and 4.5 mg. Monitor drug levels of oral medications with a narrow therapeutic index (e.g., warfarin) when concomitantly administered with TRULICITY. 7.2 Concomitant Use with an Insulin Secretagogue (e.g., Sulfonylurea) or with Insulin When initiating TRULICITY, consider reducing the dose of concomitantly administered insulin secretagogues (such as sulfonylureas) or insulin to reduce the risk of hypoglycemia [see Warnings and Precautions and Adverse Reactions ].

Pregnancy: Should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to fetus . 8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Limited data with TRULICITY in pregnant women are not sufficient to determine a drug-associated risk for major birth defects and miscarriage. There are clinical considerations regarding the risks of poorly controlled diabetes in pregnancy [see Clinical Considerations]. Based on animal reproduction studies, there may be risks to the fetus from exposure to dulaglutide during pregnancy. TRULICITY should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. In pregnant rats administered dulaglutide during organogenesis, early embryonic deaths, fetal growth reductions, and fetal abnormalities occurred at systemic exposures at least 6-times human exposure at the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) of 4.5 mg/week. In pregnant rabbits administered dulaglutide during organogenesis, major fetal abnormalities occurred at 5-times human exposure at the MRHD. Adverse embryo/fetal effects in animals occurred in association with decreased maternal weight and food consumption attributed to the pharmacology of dulaglutide [see Data] . The estimated background risk of major birth defects is 6–10% in women with pre-gestational diabetes with an HbA1c >7% and has been reported to be as high as 20–25% in women with an HbA1c >10%. The estimated background risk of miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2–4% and 15–20%, respectively. Clinical Considerations Disease-associated maternal and/or embryo/fetal risk Poorly controlled diabetes in pregnancy increases the maternal risk for diabetic ketoacidosis, pre-eclampsia, spontaneous abortions, preterm delivery and delivery complications. Poorly controlled diabetes increases the fetal risk for major birth defects, stillbirth, and macrosomia-related morbidity. Data Animal Data Pregnant rats given subcutaneous doses of 0.49, 1.63, or 4.89 mg/kg dulaglutide every 3 days during organogenesis had systemic exposures 2-, 6-, and 18-times human exposure at the maximum recommended human dose (MRHD) of 4.5 mg/week, respectively, based on plasma area under the time-concentration curve (AUC) comparison. Reduced fetal weights associated with decreased maternal food intake and decreased weight gain attributed to the pharmacology of dulaglutide were observed at ≥1.63 mg/kg. Irregular skeletal ossifications and increases in post-implantation loss also were observed at 4.89 mg/kg. In pregnant rabbits given subcutaneous doses of 0.04, 0.12, or 0.41 mg/kg dulaglutide every 3 days during organogenesis, systemic exposures in pregnant rabbits were 0.5-, 2-, and 5-times human exposure at the MRHD, based on plasma AUC comparison. Fetal visceral malformation of lung lobular agenesis and skeletal malformations of the vertebrae and/or ribs were observed in conjunction with decreased maternal food intake and decreased weight gain attributed to the pharmacology of dulaglutide at 0.41 mg/kg. In a prenatal-postnatal study in F 0 maternal rats given subcutaneous doses of 0.2, 0.49, or 1.63 mg/kg every third day from implantation through lactation, systemic exposures in pregnant rats were 1-, 2-, and 7-times human exposure at the MRHD, based on plasma AUC comparison. F 1 pups from F 0 maternal rats given 1.63 mg/kg dulaglutide had statistically significantly lower mean body weight from birth through postnatal day 63 for males and postnatal day 84 for females. F 1 offspring from F 0 maternal rats receiving 1.63 mg/kg dulaglutide had decreased forelimb and hindlimb grip strength and males had delayed balano-preputial separation. Females had decreased startle response. These physical findings may relate to the decreased size of the offspring relative to controls as they appeared at early postnatal assessments but were not observed at a later assessment. F 1 female offspring of the F 0 maternal rats given 1.63 mg/kg of dulaglutide had a longer mean escape time and a higher mean number of errors relative to concurrent control during 1 of 2 trials in the memory evaluation portion of the Biel water maze. These findings occurred in conjunction with decreased F 0 maternal food intake and decreased weight gain attributed to the pharmacologic activity at 1.63 mg/kg. The human relevance of these memory deficits in the F 1 female rats is not known. 8.2 Lactation Risk Summary There are no data on the presence of dulaglutide in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. The presence of dulaglutide in milk of treated lactating animals was not determined. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother's clinical need for TRULICITY and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from TRULICITY or from the underlying maternal condition. 8.4 Pediatric Use The safety and effectiveness of TRULICITY as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in pediatric patients 10 years of age and older with type 2 diabetes mellitus have been established. Use of TRULICITY for this indication is supported by a 26-week, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel arm, placebo-controlled trial in 154 pediatric patients 10 years of age and older with type 2 diabetes mellitus [see Clinical Studies ] . TRULICITY-treated pediatric patients reported a higher incidence of injection site-related reactions compared to TRULICITY-treated adults [see Adverse Reactions ] . The safety and effectiveness of TRULICITY have not been established in pediatric patients less than 10 years of age. 8.5 Geriatric Use In the adult glycemic control trials [see Clinical Studies ] , 620 (19%) of TRULICITY-treated patients were 65 years of age or older and 65 (2%) of TRULICITY-treated patients were 75 years of age or older at baseline. In the TRULICITY 1.5 mg treatment arm of the REWIND trial (cardiovascular outcomes trial in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease or multiple cardiovascular risk factors) [see Clinical Studies ] , 2,619 (53%) patients were 65 years of age or older, and 484 (10%) patients were 75 years of age or older at baseline. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness for TRULICITY have been observed between patients 65 years of age and older and younger adult patients. 8.6 Renal Impairment TRULICITY has been studied in patients with varying degrees of renal function, including a dedicated clinical trial in patients with moderate to severe chronic kidney disease. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed in these studies according to renal function [see Clinical Studies ] . In a clinical pharmacology study in patients with renal impairment, including end-stage renal disease (ESRD), no clinically relevant change in dulaglutide pharmacokinetics (PK) was observed. In the 52-week trial in patients with type 2 diabetes and moderate to severe renal impairment, the PK behavior of TRULICITY 0.75 mg and 1.5 mg once weekly was similar to that demonstrated in previous clinical studies [see Clinical Pharmacology ] . No dose adjustment is recommended in patients with renal impairment including end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Monitor renal function in patients with renal impairment reporting severe adverse gastrointestinal reactions. Use TRULICITY with caution in patients with ESRD [see Warning and Precautions , Clinical Pharmacology ] . 8.7 Hepatic Impairment In a clinical pharmacology study in patients with varying degrees of hepatic impairment, no clinically relevant change in dulaglutide PK was observed [see Clinical Pharmacology ] . However, there is limited clinical experience in patients with mild, moderate, or severe hepatic impairment; therefore, use TRULICITY with caution in these patient populations.
