Pharmacokinetic Modeling and Dose Selection in a Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial of a Human Recombinant Alkaline Phosphatase in Healthy Volunteers.

ABSTRACT: Previous clinical trials have suggested that bovine intestinal alkaline phosphatase has renal protective effects in patients with sepsis-associated acute kidney injury. We conducted a first-in-human study to investigate the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of a novel human recombinant alkaline phosphatase (recAP), and we developed a population pharmacokinetic model to support dose selection for future patient studies.In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase I trial, healthy volunteers received a single dose of recAP (200, 500, 1000 or 2000 U/kg; n = 33; 3:1 ratio) or multiple doses of recAP (500 or 1000 U/kg; n = 18; 2:1 ratio) via a 1-h intravenous infusion on three consecutive days. Serum recAP concentrations, alkaline phosphatase (AP) activity levels and anti-drug antibodies were measured, and safety parameters were monitored. A population pharmacokinetic model was developed, and simulations were performed to guide dose selection for a phase IIa/b trial.Peak concentrations of recAP and peak AP activity were reached at the end of the 1-h infusion and showed a rapid decline, with about 10 % of the maximum concentration remaining at 4 h and less than 5 % remaining 24 h post-start. RecAP treatment was generally well tolerated, and anti-drug antibodies could not be detected in the serum up to 2 weeks post-injection after a single dose, or up to 3 weeks post-injection after multiple doses. A four-compartment model best described the pharmacokinetics of recAP administration, with moderate inter-individual variability on the central volume of distribution and elimination rate constant. Simulations showed that 1-h intravenous infusions of 250, 500 and 1000 U/kg recAP once every 24 h for three consecutive days constituted the dosing regimen that best met the criteria for dose selection in patient studies.RecAP did not raise any safety concerns when administered to healthy volunteers. A population pharmacokinetic model was developed to support dose selection for patient studies.2013-002694-21 (EudraCT).

Project description:BackgroundDasiglucagon is a novel glucagon analog that is stable in aqueous formulation and approved for use in severe hypoglycemia. Concentration QTc analyses are critical for assessing risk of drug-induced QTc prolongation and potential for fatal cardiac arrhythmias such as torsades de pointes.ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to determine whether dasiglucagon treatment resulted in any clinically relevant effect on cardiac repolarization in healthy volunteers.MethodsThis double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-escalation Phase I trial was conducted at a single center in Germany between November 2018 and June 2019. Sixty healthy volunteers aged 18 to 45 years were randomized within dose cohorts to receive intravenous dasiglucagon, intravenous placebo, or subcutaneous dasiglucagon. In the intravenous administration cohorts, doses ranged from 0.03 mg to 1.5 mg. The subcutaneous administration cohort received the approved 0.6 mg dose. In the intravenous administration cohorts, serial electrocardiograms were extracted from continuous Holter monitors at prespecified time points beginning the day before dosing and through 24 hours postdose. Heart rate, PR interval, and QRS duration were evaluated. Concentration-QT analyses corrected by Fridericia's formula (QTcF) were performed using both a linear mixed-effects and a maximum estimated effect (Emax) model.ResultsAt the doses studied, dasiglucagon did not have any clinically relevant effect on heart rate, PR interval, or QRS duration. A minor prolongation of the QTcF interval was observed without any clear dose or concentration dependency. Both the linear and Emax models predicted mean and 90% CIs of placebo-corrected change in QTcF remained below 10 ms (the threshold of regulatory concern), although the linear model did not fit the data well at low dasiglucagon plasma concentrations. In the Emax model, the Emax of dasiglucagon was 3.6 ms (90% CI, 1.23-5.95 ms), and the amount to produce half the effect of Emax) was 426.0 pmol/L (90% CI, -48.8 to 900.71 pmol/L). The treatment effect-specific intercept was -0.44 ms (90% CI, -2.37 to 1.49 ms). The most frequently observed treatment-emergent adverse events reported in the trial were gastrointestinal disorders such as nausea and vomiting.ConclusionsDasiglucagon does not cause clinically relevant QTc prolongation in concentrations up to ≈30,000 pmol/L, a level 5-fold higher than the highest observed plasma concentrations in clinical trials investigating use of the approved 0.6 mg SC dose.

Project description:IntroductionTo evaluate whether alkaline phosphatase (AP) treatment improves renal function in sepsis-induced acute kidney injury (AKI), a prospective, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study in critically ill patients with severe sepsis or septic shock with evidence of AKI was performed.MethodsThirty-six adult patients with severe sepsis or septic shock according to Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome criteria and renal injury defined according to the AKI Network criteria were included. Dialysis intervention was standardized according to Acute Dialysis Quality Initiative consensus. Intravenous infusion of alkaline phosphatase (bolus injection of 67.5 U/kg body weight followed by continuous infusion of 132.5 U/kg/24 h for 48 hours, or placebo) starting within 48 hours of AKI onset and followed up to 28 days post-treatment. The primary outcome variable was progress in renal function variables (endogenous creatinine clearance, requirement and duration of renal replacement therapy, RRT) after 28 days. The secondary outcome variables included changes in circulating inflammatory mediators, urinary excretion of biomarkers of tubular injury, and safety.ResultsThere was a significant (P=0.02) difference in favor of AP treatment relative to controls for the primary outcome variable. Individual renal parameters showed that endogenous creatinine clearance (baseline to Day 28) was significantly higher in the treated group relative to placebo (from 50±27 to 108±73 mL/minute (mean±SEM) for the AP group; and from 40±37 to 65±30 mL/minute for placebo; P=0.01). Reductions in RRT requirement and duration did not reach significance. The results in renal parameters were supported by significantly more pronounced reductions in the systemic markers C-reactive protein, Interleukin-6, LPS-binding protein and in the urinary excretion of Kidney Injury Molecule-1 and Interleukin-18 in AP-treated patients relative to placebo. The Drug Safety Monitoring Board did not raise any issues throughout the trial.ConclusionsThe improvements in renal function suggest alkaline phosphatase is a promising new treatment for patients with severe sepsis or septic shock with AKI.Trial registrationwww.clinicaltrials.gov: NCT00511186.
