Predictors of clinical response to extrafine and non-extrafine particle inhaled corticosteroids in smokers and ex-smokers with asthma.

ABSTRACT: We performed a post-hoc analysis of the OLiVIA-study investigating whether current and ex-smoking asthmatics with small airways dysfunction (SAD) show a better response in airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) to small particle adenosine after treatment with extrafine compared to non-extrafine particle inhaled corticosteroids (ICS), and to investigate which clinical parameters predict a favorable response to both treatments. We show that smoking and ex-smoking asthmatics with and without SAD have a similar treatment response with either extrafine or non-extrafine particle ICS. We also found that lower blood neutrophils are associated with a smaller ICS-response in smokers and ex-smokers with asthma, independent from the level of blood eosinophils.

Project description:BackgroundA number of single-inhaler triple therapies are being developed for asthma, including the extrafine formulation of beclometasone dipropionate (BDP), formoterol fumarate (FF), and glycopyrronium (G). Given asthma is a heterogenous disease, we investigated whether the clinical response to the addition of the long-acting muscarinic antagonist component within inhaled triple therapy was impacted by a range of clinical characteristics.MethodsThese were pre-specified and post-hoc sub-group analyses of TRIMARAN and TRIGGER, which were double-blind, 52-week studies comparing medium-strength (100/6/10 µg; TRIMARAN) and high-strength (200/6/10 µg; TRIGGER) BDP/FF/G with the respective BDP/FF strengths in adults with uncontrolled asthma and a history of ≥ 1 exacerbation. Co-primary endpoints were pre-dose forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) at Week 26 and the rate of moderate-to-severe exacerbations over 52 weeks. Key secondary endpoints: peak FEV1 at Week 26 and average morning peak expiratory flow over the first 26 weeks in each study, and severe exacerbation rate over 52 weeks (pooled data).ResultsBaseline clinical characteristics (pre-specified analyses) had no consistent effect on the lung function improvements with BDP/FF/G. For the exacerbation endpoints, sub-groups with higher reversibility gained greatest relative benefit from BDP/FF/G versus BDP/FF. In post-hoc analyses with patients sub-grouped by screening blood eosinophil values, in TRIMARAN the greatest relative effect of BDP/FF/G versus BDP/FF on the lung function endpoints was in the ≤ 300 cells/µL group; in TRIGGER, eosinophil levels did not markedly influence the relative efficacy of BDP/FF/G versus BDP/FF. Eosinophil levels did not influence relative efficacy on moderate-to-severe or severe exacerbations.ConclusionOverall, the relative efficacy of extrafine BDP/FF/G versus BDP/FF was not influenced by a range of clinical characteristics. However, some patient sub-groups gained additional benefit from BDP/FF/G for certain endpoints. In particular, for exacerbations the relative efficacy of BDP/FF/G was greater in more reversible patients.

Project description:BackgroundPrevious studies have demonstrated that glucocorticoid-induced transcript 1 gene (GLCCI1) rs37973 mutant genotype is associated with poor inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) response in asthmatics. As human airway relaxation is regulated by circulation epinephrine, which can be enhanced by corticosteroid. It is unknown whether or not GLCCI1 rs37973 is associated with circulation epinephrine and cortisol concentrations in asthma. The aim of this study is to evaluate these relationships.MethodsA total of 182 asthmatics and 180 healthy controls were recruited for the study. 30 mild-to-moderate asthmatics received fluticasone propionate (125 μg, bid) treatment for 12 weeks. GLCCI1 rs37973 genotyping was performed with the iPlex MassARRAY genotyping platform. The plasma concentrations of cortisol and epinephrine of each participant were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits.ResultsGLCCI1 rs37973 homozygotes mutant genotype GG had a higher plasma epinephrine concentration (median concentration 27.032 pg/ml, nGG = 36; median concentration 23.149 pg/ml, nAA+AG = 146; P = 0.015) and cortisol concentration (median concentration 1.141 ng/ml, nGG = 36; median concentration 0.921 ng/ml, nAA+AG = 146; P = 0.013). Both epinephrine concentration and cortisol concentration in plasma were positively correlated with FEV1 (r = 0.889 and r = 0.821, respectively. nasthma = 182). For asthmatics treated with ICS, rs37973 was associated with change in plasma epinephrine and cortisol concentration in a recessive model (AA + AG vs GG), with GG had less improvement in epinephrine concentration [ΔEPIAA+AG = 6.843 (9.26) pg/ml, nAA+AG = 26; ΔEPIGG = -1.666 (6.52) pg/ml, nGG = 4; P = 0.018] and cortisol concentration [ΔCORAA+AG = 0.3040 (0.21) ng/ml, nAA+AG = 26; ΔCORGG = -0.066 (0.24) ng/ml, nGG = 4; P = 0.009].ConclusionsOur study suggested that the poor ICS response in GLCCI1 rs37973 mutant genotype might be related to the less increased amplitudes of plasma epinephrine and cortisol in asthmatic patients.Trial registrationChiCTR-RCC-13003634 www.chictr.org.cn.
