Long-Term Tolerability, Safety, and Efficacy of Recombinant Human Hyaluronidase-Facilitated Subcutaneous Infusion of Human Immunoglobulin for Primary Immunodeficiency.

ABSTRACT: Treatment of primary immunodeficiency diseases (PIDD) with subcutaneous (SC) infusions of IgG preceded by injection of recombinant human hyaluronidase (rHuPH20) (IGHy) to increase SC tissue permeability was evaluated in two consecutive, prospective, non-controlled, multi-center studies.Subjects >4 years of age received SC IgG replacement at a weekly dose equivalent of 108 % of their previous intravenous (IV) dose, facilitated by prior injection of 75 U/g IgG of rHuPH20. Starting with weekly SC infusions, the interval was increased (ramped-up) to a 3- or 4-week schedule.Eighty-three subjects (24?

A Phase 1 Open-Label Study to Assess the Tolerability, Safety, and Immunogenicity of Hyaluronidase-Facilitated Subcutaneous Immunoglobulin 20% in Healthy Adults.

Project description:PurposeHyaluronidase-facilitated subcutaneous immunoglobulin (fSCIG) 20% will allow reduced infusion volumes and frequency versus existing subcutaneous therapies such as fSCIG 10% and conventional subcutaneous immunoglobulin 20%, respectively. We assessed the tolerability, safety, and immunogenicity of warmed and unwarmed fSCIG 20%.MethodsThis phase 1, single-dose, open-label, three-arm study enrolled healthy adults aged 19-50 years (inclusive) at a single US center (NCT05059977). Post-screening, participants received a single fSCIG 20% dose comprising recombinant human hyaluronidase and varying doses of in-line warmed or unwarmed immunoglobulin G (IgG) during a 4-day treatment period in a sentinel and sequential dosing design (treatment arm 1, warmed IgG 20% 0.4 g/kg; treatment arm 2, warmed IgG 20% 1.0 g/kg; treatment arm 3, unwarmed IgG 20% 1.0 g/kg). Participants were followed for 12 (± 1) weeks post-infusion. The primary endpoint was tolerability ("tolerable" infusions were not interrupted, stopped, or reduced in rate owing to fSCIG 20%-related treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs)). Secondary endpoints included occurrence of TEAEs.ResultsOverall, 24 participants were included, 8 per treatment arm (mean age 39.0 years, 54.2% men). All participants tolerated the infusions. All TEAEs were mild (107 events, in all participants), and all participants experienced fSCIG 20%-related (105 events) and local (102 events) TEAEs. Infusion site erythema and infusion site swelling were most frequently reported. No serious TEAEs occurred, and no participants discontinued the study owing to TEAEs.ConclusionfSCIG 20% was well-tolerated with a favorable safety profile in healthy adults. Future studies will evaluate fSCIG 20% in primary immunodeficiency diseases. Trial registration number (ClinicalTrials.gov): NCT05059977 (registered 28 September 2021).

Safety and Tolerability of Subcutaneous IgPro20 at High Infusion Parameters in Patients with Primary Immunodeficiency: Findings from the Pump-Assisted Administration Cohorts of the HILO Study.

Project description:PurposeTo evaluate the safety and tolerability of subcutaneous IgPro20 (Hizentra®, CSL Behring, King of Prussia, PA, USA) administered at high infusion parameters (> 25 mL and > 25 mL/h per injection site) in patients with primary immunodeficiency.MethodsThe Hizentra® Label Optimization (HILO) study was an open-label, parallel-arm, non-randomized study (NCT03033745) of IgPro20 using a forced upward titration design for infusion parameters. Patients experienced with pump-assisted IgPro20 infusions received weekly IgPro20 infusions at a stable dose in the Pump-Assisted Volume Cohort (N = 15; 25-50 mL per injection site) and in the Pump-Assisted Flow Rate Cohort (N = 18; 25-100 mL/h per injection site). Responder rates (percentage of patients who successfully completed ≥ 75% of planned infusions), safety outcomes, and serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) trough levels were evaluated.ResultsResponder rates were 86.7% (13/15, 25 mL) and 73.3% (11/15, 40 and 50 mL) in the Volume Cohort, and 77.8% (14/18, 25 and 50 mL/h), 66.7% (12/18, 75 mL/h), and 61.1% (11/18, 100 mL/h) in the Flow Rate Cohort. Infusion compliance was ≥ 90% in all patients in the Volume Cohort and in 83.3% of patients in the Flow Rate Cohort. The number of injection sites (Volume Cohort) and the infusion duration (Flow Rate Cohort) decreased with increasing infusion parameters. The rate of treatment-emergent adverse events per infusion was low (0.138 [Volume Cohort] and 0.216 [Flow Rate Cohort]). Serum IgG levels remained stable during the study.ConclusionPump-assisted IgPro20 infusions are feasible at 50 mL and 100 mL/h per injection site in treatment-experienced patients, which may result in fewer injection sites and shorter infusion times.Trial registrationNCT03033745 ; registered January 27, 2017.

Efficacy and safety of IgPro20, a subcutaneous immunoglobulin, in Japanese patients with primary immunodeficiency diseases.

Project description:PurposeIntravenous (IVIG) and subcutaneous (SCIG) immunoglobulin infusions are widely used for the treatment of patients with primary immunodeficiency (PID) worldwide. This prospective, multicenter, open-label, single-arm Phase III study evaluated the efficacy, tolerability, and safety of IgPro20 (Hizentra®; L-proline-stabilized 20 % human SCIG) in adult and pediatric Japanese patients with PID.MethodsPatients received three IVIG infusions at 3-4-week intervals followed by a dose-equivalent switch to weekly SCIG infusions. A 12-week wash-in/wash-out period was followed by a 12-week SCIG efficacy period. The primary efficacy endpoint was the comparison of total serum IgG trough levels during the IVIG and SCIG efficacy periods by calculating the geometric mean ratio (GMR).ResultsThe GMR of IgG trough levels on SCIG versus IVIG was 1.09 (2-sided 90% confidence interval: 1.06-1.13). No serious bacterial infections were reported. Eleven patients (52.4%) had infectious episodes with an overall rate of 2.98 infections/patient/year; 7 patients (33.3%) missed school/work/daycare due to infection (3.48 days/patient/year). Sixteen patients (76.2%) were treated with antibiotics for an adverse event (AE; 47.6%) or prophylaxis (23.8%), resulting in 167.42 days/patient/year of antibiotic use. During SCIG treatment, 24 patients (96.0%) had 269 AEs (0.461 AEs per/infusion) including local reactions as the most common AE (20 patients, 80.0%). Local tolerability of IgPro20 was assessed as "very good" or "good" after 85.4% of SCIG infusions. One patient (4.0%) experienced a serious AE of moderate severity (bacterial infection) that was considered unrelated to study medication.ConclusionIgPro20 was effective and well tolerated in Japanese patients with PID.

Subcutaneous Injection Performance in Yucatan Miniature Pigs with and without Human Hyaluronidase and Auto-injector Tolerability in Humans.

Project description:Recombinant human hyaluronidase PH20 (rHuPH20) facilitates subcutaneous (SC) delivery of co-administered therapeutic agents by locally and transiently degrading hyaluronan in the SC space, and can be administered with therapeutics using a variety of devices. Two SC delivery studies were carried out to assess auto-injector (AI) performance, each in 18 Yucatan miniature pigs. Abdominal injections were administered using three auto-injectors of 1 mL (AI1) and 2 mL (AI2 and sAI2) with different injection speeds and depths (5.5-7.5 mm) and two pre-filled syringe (PFS) devices of 1 and 2 mL. The injection included a placebo buffer with and without rHuPH20 to evaluate the effect of rHuPH20 on SC injection performance. The feasibility of using similar devices to deliver a placebo buffer in humans was investigated. rHuPH20 was not studied in humans. In miniature pigs, postinjection swelling was evident for most PFS/AI injections, particularly 2 mL. Swelling heights and back leakage were typically lower with rHuPH20 co-administration versus placebo for most device configurations (1 or 2 mL PFS or AI). Auto-injections with versus without rHuPH20 also resulted in reduced swelling firmness and faster swelling resolution over time. Slow injections with rHuPH20 had shorter and more consistent injection time versus placebo. In humans, minimal injection site swelling and negligible back leakage were observed for 2-mL injections of placebo, while more erythema was observed in humans versus miniature pigs. Even at high delivery rates with PFS or AI, the addition of rHuPH20 resulted in improved SC injection performance versus placebo in miniature pigs.

Real-World Evidence of Tolerability of 20% Subcutaneous Immunoglobulin Treatment.

Project description:PurposeThe safety and efficacy of subcutaneous immune globulin 20% (human) solution (Ig20Gly) were demonstrated in clinical trials. However, real-world evidence of the tolerability of self-administered Ig20Gly in elderly patients is lacking. We describe real-world patterns of Ig20Gly usage for 12 months in patients with primary immunodeficiency diseases (PIDD) in the USA.MethodsThis retrospective chart review of longitudinal data from 2 centers included patients aged ≥ 2 years with PIDD. Ig20Gly administration parameters, tolerability, and usage patterns were assessed at initial and subsequent 6- and 12-month infusions.ResultsOf 47 enrolled patients, 30 (63.8%) received immunoglobulin replacement therapy (IGRT) within 12 months before starting Ig20Gly, and 17 (36.2%) started IGRT de novo. Patients were predominantly White (89.1%), female (85.1%), and elderly (aged > 65 years, 68.1%; median age = 71.0 years). Most adults received at-home treatment during the study, and most self-administered at 6 months (90.0%) and 12 months (88.2%). Across all time points, infusions were administered at a mean rate of 60-90 mL/h/infusion, using a mean of 2 sites per infusion, on a weekly or biweekly frequency. No emergency department visits occurred, and hospital visits were rare (n = 1). Forty-six adverse drug reactions occurred in 36.4% of adults, mostly localized site reactions; none of these or any adverse events led to treatment discontinuation.ConclusionThese findings demonstrate tolerability and successful self-administration of Ig20Gly in PIDD, including elderly patients and patients starting IGRT de novo.

Facilitated Subcutaneous Immunoglobulin Treatment in Patients with Immunodeficiencies: the FIGARO Study.

Project description:PurposeThe FIGARO study aims to provide insights on real-world utilization and tolerability of facilitated subcutaneous immunoglobulin (fSCIG) for primary immunodeficiency disease (PID) or secondary immunodeficiency disease (SID).MethodsThis prospective, multicenter, observational study, evaluated medical records, charts, and diaries of patients who had received at least 1 fSCIG infusion for PID or SID. Data were analyzed by cohort (PID, SID) and age groups (pediatric [< 18 years], adult [18-64 years], older adult [≥ 65 years]). Patients were followed up to 36 months.ResultsThe study enrolled 156 patients: 15 pediatric, 120 adult, 21 older-adult. Twelve-month follow-up data were available for 128 patients. fSCIG was mainly prescribed for PID among patients aged < 65 years and for SID among older adults. At inclusion, 75.6% received their fSCIG infusion at home, and 78.7% self-administered. Adults were more likely to receive their initial infusion at home and self-administer (81.7% and 86.6%, respectively) than pediatric patients (53.3% each) and older adults (57.1% and 52.4%, respectively). At 12 months, the proportion of patients infusing at home and self-administering increased to 85.8% and 88.2%. Regardless of age, most patients self-administered the full fSCIG dose at home every 3-4 weeks and required a single infusion site. The tolerability profile was consistent with previous pivotal trials. Acute severe bacterial infections occurred in 0%-9.1% of patients during follow-up visits (full cohort).ConclusionsFIGARO confirms the feasibility, tolerability, and good infection control of fSCIG in PID and SID patients across the age spectrum in both the home-setting and medical facility.Trial registration numberClinicalTrials.gov NCT03054181.

ENHANZE<sup>®</sup> drug delivery technology: a novel approach to subcutaneous administration using recombinant human hyaluronidase PH20

Project description:ENHANZE® drug delivery technology is based on the proprietary recombinant human hyaluronidase PH20 enzyme (rHuPH20; Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc.) that facilitates the subcutaneous (SC) delivery of co-administered therapeutics. rHuPH20 works by degrading the glycosaminoglycan hyaluronan (HA), which plays a role in resistance to bulk fluid flow in the SC space, limiting large volume SC drug delivery, dispersion, and absorption. Co-administration of rHuPH20 with partner therapies can overcome administration time and volume barriers associated with existing SC therapeutic formulations, and has been shown to reduce the burden on patients and healthcare providers compared with intravenous formulations. rHuPH20 (as HYLENEX® recombinant) is currently FDA-approved for subcutaneous fluid administration for achieving hydration, to increase the dispersion and absorption of other injected drugs, and in subcutaneous urography for improving resorption of radiopaque agents. rHuPH20 is also co-formulated with two anticancer therapies, trastuzumab (i.e. Herceptin® SC) and rituximab (i.e. RITUXAN HYCELA®/RITUXAN® SC/MabThera® SC) and dosed sequentially with human immunoglobin to treat primary immunodeficiency (i.e. HyQvia®/HYQVIA®). This article reviews pharmaceutical properties of rHuPH20, its current applications with approved therapeutics, and the potential for future developments.

Safety and Tolerability of Manual Push Administration of Subcutaneous IgPro20 at High Infusion Rates in Patients with Primary Immunodeficiency: Findings from the Manual Push Administration Cohort of the HILO Study.

Project description:PurposeTo evaluate the safety and tolerability of IgPro20 manual push (also known as rapid push) infusions at flow rates of 0.5-2.0 mL/min.MethodsPatients with primary immunodeficiency (PID) with previous experience administering IgPro20 (Hizentra®, CSL Behring, King of Prussia, PA, USA) were enrolled in the Hizentra® Label Optimization (HILO) study (NCT03033745) and assigned to Pump-assisted Volume Cohort, Pump-assisted Flow Rate Cohort, or Manual Push Flow Rate Cohort; this report describes the latter. Patients administered IgPro20 via manual push at 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 mL/min/site for 4 weeks each. Responder rates (percentage of patients who completed a predefined minimum number of infusions), safety outcomes, and serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) trough levels were evaluated.ResultsSixteen patients were treated; 2 patients (12.5%) discontinued at the 1.0-mL/min level (unrelated to treatment). Responder rates were 100%, 100%, and 87.5% at 0.5-, 1.0-, and 2.0-mL/min flow rates, respectively. Mean weekly infusion duration decreased from 103-108 to 23-28 min at the 0.5- and 2.0-mL/min flow rates, respectively. Rates of treatment-related treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) per infusion were 0.023, 0.082, and 0.025 for the 0.5-, 1.0-, and 2.0-mL/min flow rates, respectively. Most TEAEs were mild local reactions and tolerability (infusions without severe local reactions/total infusions) was 100% across flow rate levels. Serum IgG levels (mean [SD]) were similar at study start (9.36 [2.53] g/L) and end (9.58 [2.12] g/L).ConclusionsSubcutaneous IgPro20 manual push infusions at flow rates up to 2.0 mL/min were well tolerated and reduced infusion time in treatment-experienced patients with PID.Trial registrationNCT03033745.
