Infliximab biosimilar CT-P13 therapy in patients with Takayasu arteritis with low dose of glucocorticoids: a prospective single-arm study.


ABSTRACT: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of infliximab biosimilar CT-P13 in patients with active Takayasu arteritis (TAK). In this single-center open-label trial, patients with active TAK received CT-P13 at a starting dose of 5 mg/kg at weeks 0, 2, 6, and then every 8 weeks up to week 46. They were followed up until week 54. From week 14 to week 46, patients with inadequate response received increased dose of CT-P13 by 1.5 mg/kg. Concomitant prednisolone was allowed???10 mg/day. The primary efficacy end point was the achievement of partial or complete remission at week 30. All patients underwent positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) at baseline and week 30. Twelve patients with TAK received CT-P13; one patient with protocol violation was excluded from analysis. Nine (81.8%) patients had taken concomitant prednisolone with median dose of 5.0 mg/day. At week 30, three (27.3%) patients achieved complete remission and six (54.5%) patients achieved partial remission. Statistically significant improvements in modified Indian Takayasu Clinical Activity Score (ITAS2010), ITAS-A, and serum levels of erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C-reactive protein were seen at week 30 from baseline. PET parameters were significantly reduced from baseline to week 30, including maximum standardized uptake value, target-to-vein ratio, target-to-liver ratio, and PET Vascular Activity Score. There were no serious adverse events. Treatment with CT-P13 may lead to improvement in clinical, radiographic, and serological activities with lower glucocorticoid requirement in TAK.Trial registration number NCT02457585.
