A randomized phase l pharmacokinetic study comparing SB4 and etanercept reference product (Enbrel®) in healthy subjects.

ABSTRACT: AIMS:SB4 has been developed as a biosimilar of etanercept. The primary objective of the present study was to demonstrate the pharmacokinetic (PK) equivalence between SB4 and European Union -sourced etanercept (EU-ETN), SB4 and United States-sourced etanercept (US-ETN), and EU-ETN and US-ETN. The safety and immunogenicity were also compared between the treatments. METHODS:This was a single-blind, three-part, crossover study in 138 healthy male subjects. In each part, 46 subjects were randomized at a 1:1 ratio to receive a single 50 mg subcutaneous dose of the treatments (part A: SB4 or EU-ETN; part B: SB4 or US-ETN; and part C: EU-ETN or US-ETN) in period 1, followed by the crossover treatment in period 2 according to their assigned sequences. PK equivalence between the treatments was determined using the standard equivalence margin of 80-125%. RESULTS:The geometric least squares means ratios of AUCinf , AUClast and Cmax were 99.04%, 98.62% and 103.71% (part A: SB4 vs. EU-ETN); 101.09%, 100.96% and 104.36% (part B: SB4 vs. US-ETN); and 100.51%, 101.27% and 103.29% (part C: EU-ETN vs. US-ETN), respectively, and the corresponding 90% confidence intervals were completely contained within the limits of 80-125 %. The incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events was comparable, and the incidence of the antidrug antibodies was lower in SB4 compared with the reference products. CONCLUSIONS:The present study demonstrated PK equivalence between SB4 and EU-ETN, SB4 and US-ETN, and EU-ETN and US-ETN in healthy male subjects. SB4 was well tolerated, with a lower immunogenicity profile and similar safety profile compared with those of the reference products.

Project description:BackgroundComplications of bone metastases such as skeletal-related events lead to the impaired functional status and quality of life including death in patients with bone metastasis from solid tumors. Denosumab (XGEVA®) is indicated for the prevention of skeletal-related events in bone metastasis patients with solid tumors. The biosimilar product LY01011, a fully human anti-receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand monoclonal antibody, was developed to be compared with the reference product denosumab.Material and methodsA randomized, double-blind, single-dose, parallel-controlled phase 1 study was conducted in healthy Chinese subjects. A total of 168 enrolled subjects were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive a single 120 mg dose of LY01011 (n = 85) or denosumab (n = 83) subcutaneously. The primary pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters, including maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to last quantifiable concentration (AUC0→t), were collected and measured for evaluation. Other secondary PK parameters included AUC0- ∞, Tmax, CL/F, λz, t1/2, Vd/F, etc. Pharmacodynamics (PD), safety and immunogenicity profiles were also accounted for data analysis.ResultsThe geometric mean ratios (GMRs) of LY01011 and denosumab for the primary PK parameters such as Cmax and AUC0→t were 98.13% and 100.32%. The 90% confidence intervals (CIs) were all within the acceptance range of 80%-125%. The GMRs of the PD parameters including AUEC0→t and Emax were 98.71% and 99.80%, which fell within the pre-defined acceptance range of 80%-125%. The results also demonstrated PK similarity even if Cmax and AUC0→∞ had been used as primary endpoints. Safety profiles were tolerable and similar between groups. 4 (4.7%) and 2 (2.4%) subjects had experienced Grade 3 or above treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) in LY01011 group and denosumab group. 3 subjects were reported to have serious adverse events (SAEs). None of the Grade 3 or above TEAEs and SAEs were related to the study drug, LY01011. No subject was tested anti-drug antibody (ADA) positive in both groups prior to the study drug administration. Following the study drug administration, only one subject in denosumab group was tested ADA positive, whereas no subject with ADA positive was reported in LY01011 group. No neutralizing antibody (Nab) was detected in either group throughout the study.ConclusionsThe study demonstrated PK and PD similarity of LY01011, a denosumab biosimilar, to denosumab in healthy Chinese subjects, with comparable safety and immunogenicity profiles.

Project description:BackgroundBiologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs, including tumor necrosis factor inhibitors such as etanercept (Enbrel®), have improved outcomes for patients with rheumatic and other inflammatory diseases, with sustained remission being the optimal goal for patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Flexible and convenient treatment options, compatible with modern lifestyle, are important in helping patients maintain treatment and manage their disease. Etanercept drug product (DP) is available in lyophilized powder (Lyo) for solution injection, prefilled syringe, and prefilled pen presentations and is typically stored under refrigerated conditions. We aimed to generate a comprehensive analytical data package from stability testing of key quality attributes, consistent with regulatory requirements, to determine whether the product profile of etanercept is maintained at ambient temperature.MethodsTest methods assessing key attributes of purity, quality, potency, and safety were performed over time, following storage of etanercept DP presentations under a range of conditions.ResultsResults and statistical analysis from stability testing (based on size exclusion high-performance liquid chromatography, hydrophobic interaction chromatography, and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis Coomassie) across all etanercept presentations (10 and 25 mg/vial Lyo DP; 25 and 50 mg prefilled syringe DP; 50 mg prefilled pen DP) showed key stability-indicating parameters were within acceptable limits through the alternative storage condition of 25°C±2°C for 1 month.ConclusionStability testing performed in line with regulatory requirements supports a single period of storage for etanercept DP at an alternative storage condition of 25°C±2°C for up to 1 month within the approved expiry of the product. This alternative storage condition represents further innovation in the etanercept product lifecycle, providing greater flexibility and enhanced overall convenience for patients.

Project description:Background and objectivesYLB113 is being developed as a biosimilar of the antitumor necrosis factor-alpha antagonist etanercept, which is approved for the treatment of moderate-to-severe rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and other chronic immune-mediated inflammatory diseases. An open-label, crossover, pharmacokinetic study was conducted to compare the relative bioavailability and safety of YLB113 and the etanercept reference product (RP) Enbrel®.MethodsHealthy male subjects aged 18-50 years were randomized to receive a single subcutaneous dose of YLB113 in one period and the etanercept RP in another period. A washout period of 28 days separated the two treatment periods. Blood samples were collected for pharmacokinetic analysis predose and until 480 h postdose during both periods.ResultsOverall, 52 subjects were enrolled, including 51 subjects who completed the first period and 43 subjects who completed the second period. The 90% confidence intervals for the least squares means derived from an analysis of the log-transformed pharmacokinetic parameters maximum serum concentration (Cmax), area under the serum concentration-time curve (AUC) from 0 to the last measurable concentration (AUC(0-t)) and AUC from 0 to infinity (AUC(0-∞)) for etanercept were between the limits of 80 and 125%. Thus, YLB113 met the bioequivalence criterion. YLB113 and the etanercept RP were well tolerated, with 24 subjects reporting 53 adverse events, including 42 mild and 11 moderate events. Treatment-emergent adverse events were reported by 14 and 16 subjects following the administration of YLB113 and the etanercept RP, respectively.ConclusionsA single dose of YLB113 exhibited pharmacokinetic and safety profiles comparable with those of the etanercept RP in healthy adult male subjects. Therefore, YLB113 and the etanercept RP can be considered bioequivalent. These findings support the continued development of YLB113 for use in patients with RA.Jordan food & drug administration unique trial number31/Clinical/2018.

Project description:IntroductionEnbrel® (etanercept: manufactured by Immunex Corporation, Newbury Park, Thousand Oaks, CA 91320, USA) was the first biological disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug approved for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in Europe. More recently, an etanercept biosimilar (Benepali®: manufactured by Biogen Inc, Cambridge, MA 02124, USA) was approved in the European Union. The perceptions and preferences of the Benepali autoinjector versus Enbrel MYCLIC autoinjector were evaluated by nurses from Europe.MethodsThe survey involved a 25-min face-to-face questionnaire-interview with nurses from France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the UK, experienced in training patients on using the Enbrel MYCLIC autoinjector. Nurses viewed an instructional video and device-handling leaflet, received a live demonstration on the Benepali autoinjector and had access to both Benepali and Enbrel MYCLIC training autoinjectors. Nurses rated the importance of ten autoinjector attributes on a scale of 1-7 (1 = not important at all; 7 = extremely important) and provided their autoinjector preferences based on specific attributes. Nurses also gave their opinion on which autoinjector their patients with RA would prefer.ResultsA total of 149 nurses participated in this survey (France, n = 30; Germany, n = 40; Italy, n = 30; Spain, n = 19; UK, n = 30). 'Easy to operate the self-injection' was ranked as the most important attribute (mean score of 6.8), followed by 'easy to grip' (6.6) and 'intuitive/self-explaining usage' (6.6). Nurses preferred the Benepali autoinjector, with attributes of 'easier to operate' and 'more intuitive to use' being strong differentiators compared with the Enbrel MYCLIC autoinjector. Most nurses (86%) reported that their patients would prefer the Benepali autoinjector over the Enbrel MYCLIC autoinjector. 'Easy to operate the self-injection' and 'button-free autoinjector' were key drivers when selecting an autoinjector.ConclusionBased on these survey results, nurses in Europe reported a preference for the Benepali autoinjector compared with the Enbrel MYCLIC autoinjector for the majority of attributes assessed. In particular, attributes of 'easy to operate' and 'more intuitive/self-explaining to use' were highly rated for the Benepali autoinjector, which may allow easy handling of the autoinjector.FundingBiogen International GmBH.
