Mortality Benefit of Recombinant Human Interleukin-1 Receptor Antagonist for Sepsis Varies by Initial Interleukin-1 Receptor Antagonist Plasma Concentration.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE:Plasma interleukin-1 beta may influence sepsis mortality, yet recombinant human interleukin-1 receptor antagonist did not reduce mortality in randomized trials. We tested for heterogeneity in the treatment effect of recombinant human interleukin-1 receptor antagonist by baseline plasma interleukin-1 beta or interleukin-1 receptor antagonist concentration. DESIGN:Retrospective subgroup analysis of randomized controlled trial. SETTING:Multicenter North American and European clinical trial. PATIENTS:Five hundred twenty-nine subjects with sepsis and hypotension or hypoperfusion, representing 59% of the original trial population. INTERVENTIONS:Random assignment of placebo or recombinant human interleukin-1 receptor antagonist × 72 hours. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS:We measured prerandomization plasma interleukin-1 beta and interleukin-1 receptor antagonist and tested for statistical interaction between recombinant human interleukin-1 receptor antagonist treatment and baseline plasma interleukin-1 receptor antagonist or interleukin-1 beta concentration on 28-day mortality. There was significant heterogeneity in the effect of recombinant human interleukin-1 receptor antagonist treatment by plasma interleukin-1 receptor antagonist concentration whether plasma interleukin-1 receptor antagonist was divided into deciles (interaction p = 0.046) or dichotomized (interaction p = 0.028). Interaction remained present across different predicted mortality levels. Among subjects with baseline plasma interleukin-1 receptor antagonist above 2,071 pg/mL (n = 283), recombinant human interleukin-1 receptor antagonist therapy reduced adjusted mortality from 45.4% to 34.3% (adjusted risk difference, -0.12; 95% CI, -0.23 to -0.01), p = 0.044. Mortality in subjects with plasma interleukin-1 receptor antagonist below 2,071 pg/mL was not reduced by recombinant human interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (adjusted risk difference, +0.07; 95% CI, -0.04 to +0.17), p = 0.230. Interaction between plasma interleukin-1 beta concentration and recombinant human interleukin-1 receptor antagonist treatment was not statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS:We report a heterogeneous effect of recombinant human interleukin-1 receptor antagonist on 28-day sepsis mortality that is potentially predictable by plasma interleukin-1 receptor antagonist in one trial. A precision clinical trial of recombinant human interleukin-1 receptor antagonist targeted to septic patients with high plasma interleukin-1 receptor antagonist may be worthy of consideration.

Project description:PurposeBlood-brain barrier (BBB) dysregulation and pro-inflammatory signalling molecules are secondary factors that have been associated with injury severity and long-term clinical outcome following traumatic brain injury (TBI). However, the association between BBB permeability and inflammation is unknown in human TBI patients. In this study, we investigated whether BBI integrity as measured by Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced (DCE) Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) correlates with plasma levels of immunological markers following TBI.MethodsThirty-two TBI patients recruited from a neurosurgical unit were included in the study. Structural three-dimensional T1-weighted and DCE-MRI images were acquired on a 3T MRI at the earliest opportunity once the participant was sufficiently stable after patient admission to hospital. Blood sampling was performed on the same day as the MRI. The location and extents of the haemorrhagic and contusional lesions were identified. Immunological biomarkers were quantified from the participants' plasma using a multiplex immunoassay. Demographic and clinical information, including age and Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) were also collected and the immunological biomarker profiles were compared across controls and the TBI severity sub-groups. Contrast agent leakiness through blood-brain barriers (BBB) in the contusional lesions were assessed by fitting DCE-MRI using Patlak model and BBB leakiness characteristics of the participants were correlated with the immunological biomarker profiles.ResultsTBI patients showed reduced plasma levels of interleukin (IL)-1β, IFN-γ, IL-13, and chemokine (C-C motif) ligands (CCL)2 compared to controls and significantly higher levels of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF-BB), IL-6, and IL-8. BBB leakiness of the contusional lesions did not significantly differ across different TBI severity sub-groups. IL-1ra levels significantly and positively correlated with the contusional lesion's BBB integrity as measured with DCE-MRI via an exponential curve relationship.DiscussionThis is the first study to combine DCE-MRI with plasma markers of inflammation in acute TBI patients. Our finding that plasma levels of the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-1ra correlated negatively with increased leakiness of the BBB.
