Efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of a novel human immune globulin subcutaneous, 20%: a Phase 2/3 study in Europe in patients with primary immunodeficiencies.

ABSTRACT: A highly concentrated (20%) immunoglobulin (Ig)G preparation for subcutaneous administration (IGSC 20%), would offer a new option for antibody replacement therapy in patients with primary immunodeficiency diseases (PIDD). The efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of IGSC 20% were evaluated in a prospective trial in Europe in 49 patients with PIDD aged 2-67 years. Over a median of 358 days, patients received 2349 IGSC 20% infusions at monthly doses equivalent to those administered for previous intravenous or subcutaneous IgG treatment. The rate of validated acute bacterial infections (VASBIs) was significantly lower than 1 per year (0·022/patient-year, P?

Project description:We report here the results of a phase 3 study to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of GC5107, a new 10% liquid intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) in preventing serious bacterial infections in patients with primary immunodeficiency (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02783482). Over a 12-month study period, 49 patients aged 3 to 70 years with a confirmed diagnosis of primary immunodeficiency received GC5107 at doses ranging from 319 to 881 mg/kg body weight every 21 or 28 days, according to their previous IVIG maintenance therapy. A total of 667 infusions of GC5107 were administered comprising a total of 45.86 patient-years of treatment. A single acute serious bacterial infection occurred during the study, resulting in an incidence of 0.02 events per patient-year (upper 99% one-sided confidence interval limit: 0.21), meeting the prespecified primary efficacy endpoint. The mean incidence of infections other than acute serious bacterial infections was 2.9 infections per patient-year. Efficacy was also demonstrated by the low mean annualized rate of hospitalizations due to infection (0.1 day) and the mean annualized duration of hospitalizations (0.1 day). The mean rate of intravenous and oral antibiotic use was 0.1 day and 13.2 days, respectively. There was a mean of 7.1 days of missed work, school, or daycare days. The proportion of infusions with temporally associated adverse events (TAAEs) occurring during or within 72 hours after GC5107 infusion was 0.24 (upper 95% one-sided confidence interval limit: 0.31), meeting the pre-specified primary safety endpoint. Overall, 149 of 667 infusions (22%) were associated with TAAEs. The most common TAAE was headache, reported by 49% of patients. More than 98% (731/743) of all adverse events that occurred throughout the 12-month study period were mild or moderate. More than 98% of infusions were completed without discontinuation, interruption or rate reduction. There were no treatment-emergent serious adverse events related to GC5107 or study discontinuations due to an adverse event. Overall, pharmacokinetic parameters for GC5107 were within the range of those reported in studies of other marketed IVIG products. Results of the present study demonstrate that GC5107 is an effective, safe and well-tolerated treatment for patients with primary immunodeficiency.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Preclinical studies have demonstrated that pharmacological mobilization and recruitment of endogenous bone marrow stem cells and immunoregulatory cells by a combination of plerixafor and low-dose tacrolimus (MRG-001) improves wound healing, promotes tissue regeneration and prevents allograft rejection. This first‐in‐human phase I dose‐escalation study evaluates the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of MRG-001, a novel fixed-dose combination drug. METHODS: In this Phase 1, double‐blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study, multiple ascending dose (MAD) cohorts are randomized to receive MRG-001 containing up to 0.02 mL/kg (plerixafor 24 mg/mL and tacrolimus 0.5 mg/mL) or saline placebo, subcutaneously every other day (SC, QAD) for 5 days (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT04646603)The primary outcome is safety and tolerability. Safety and functional assessments are performed throughout the study. Blood samples are collected to evaluate systemic exposure. Fluorescence-activated cell sorting analysis and RNA expression of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) are used to evaluate the pharmacodynamics. RESULTS: Fourteen subjects received MRG-001 and 7 received a placebo. MRG-001 is safe and well-tolerated over the selected dose range. No deaths or severe adverse events are reported. There are no clinically significant laboratory changes after MRG-001 administration, apart from the predicted generalized leukocytosis. The intermediate dose group (0.01 mL/kg) showed the most significant white blood cell mobilization over time and increased by 2-4 fold from baseline and returned to baseline levels prior to the next injection. Circulating immune cells including FOXP3+ regulatory T cells and hematopoietic stem cells (CD45IntCD34+) increased significantly after MRG-001 injection. PBMC RNA sequencing and gene set enrichment analysis revealeds 31 down-regulated pathways in the intermediate dose MRG-001 group compared to no changes in the placebo group. CONCLUSION: MRG-001 is safe and well-tolerated across the full dose ranges tested. MRG-001 may be a clinically useful therapy for immunoregulation and tissue regeneration. A Phase II trial to treat severely and critically ill COVID-19 patients with MRG-001 has been initiated (NCT04646603) and a second phase II trial will explore the potential of MRG-001 to accelerate wound healing (NCT05844527),
