Anti-IL-7 receptor ? monoclonal antibody (GSK2618960) in healthy subjects - a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study.

ABSTRACT: AIM:Interleukin (IL)-7 signalling modulates T cell activity and is implicated in numerous autoimmune diseases. The present study investigated the safety, pharmacokinetics, target engagement, pharmacodynamics and immunogenicity of GSK2618960, an IL-7 receptor-? subunit (CD127) monoclonal antibody. METHODS:A double-blind (sponsor-unblind) study of a single intravenous infusion of either GSK2618960 (0.6 mg kg-1 or 2.0 mg kg-1 ) or placebo was carried out in 18 healthy subjects over 24 weeks. RESULTS:GSK2618960 was well tolerated; there were no serious or significant adverse events. The observed half-life was 5 (±1) days (2.0 mg kg-1 ), with nonlinear pharmacokinetics. Full receptor occupancy (>95%) was observed until day 8 (0.6 mg kg-1 ) and day 22 (2.0 mg kg-1 ). Maximal inhibition of IL-7-mediated signal transducer and activator of transcription 5 (STAT5) phosphorylation was observed in 5/6 subjects until day 22 (2.0 mg kg-1 ). Mean circulating IL-7 and soluble receptor (CD127) levels were increased above baseline during days 2 and 15 (0.6 mg kg-1 ) and days 2 and 22 (2.0 mg kg-1 ). No meaningful changes were observed in absolute numbers or proportions of immune cell populations or inflammatory cytokine profiles (IL-6, tumour necrosis factor-?, interferon-?, IL-2). Persistent antidrug antibodies (ADAs) were detected in 5/6 subjects administered a dose of 0.6 mg kg-1 (neutralizing in 2/6) and in 6/6 subjects administered 2.0 mg kg-1 (neutralizing in 5/6). CONCLUSION:GSK2618960 was well tolerated and blocked IL-7 receptor signalling upon full target engagement. Although there was no discernible impact on peripheral T cell subsets in healthy subjects, GSK2618960 may effectively modulate the autoinflammatory activity of pathogenic T cells in diseased tissue. A relatively short half-life is likely the result of target-mediated rather than ADA-mediated clearance.

Project description:ObjectiveThe authors tested whether the anti-interleukin (IL)-17A monoclonal antibody secukinumab was safe and effective for the treatment of active Crohn's disease.DesignIn a double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled proof-of-concept study, 59 patients with moderate to severe Crohn's disease (Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) ≥220 to ≤450) were assigned in a 2:1 ratio to 2×10 mg/kg intravenous secukinumab or placebo. The primary end point, addressed by bayesian statistics augmented with historical placebo information, was the probability that secukinumab reduces the CDAI by ≥50 points more than placebo at week 6. Ancillary analyses explored associations of 35 candidate genetic polymorphisms and faecal calprotectin response.Results59 patients (39 secukinumab, 20 placebo, mean baseline CDAI 307 and 301, respectively) were recruited. 18/59 (31%) patients discontinued prematurely (12/39 (31%) secukinumab, 6/20 (30%) placebo), 10/59 (17%) due to insufficient therapeutic effect (8/39 (21%) secukinumab, 2/20 (10%) placebo). Fourteen serious adverse events occurred in 10 patients (seven secukinumab, three placebo); 20 infections, including four local fungal infections, were seen on secukinumab versus none on placebo. Primary end point analysis estimated <0.1% probability (CDAI (SD) =33.9 (19.7), 95% credible interval -4.9 to 72.9) that secukinumab reduces CDAI by ≥50 points more than placebo. Secondary area under the curve analysis (weeks 4-10) showed a significant difference (mean ΔCDAI=49; 95% CI (2 to 96), p=0.043) in favour of placebo. Post hoc subgroup analysis showed that unfavourable responses on secukinumab were driven by patients with elevated inflammatory markers (CRP≥10 mg/l and/or faecal calprotectin≥200 ng/ml; mean ΔCDAI=62; 95% CI (-1 to 125), p=0.054 in favour of placebo). Absence of the minor allele of tumour necrosis factor-like ligand 1A was strongly associated with lack of response measured by baseline-adjusted changes in calprotectin at week 6 (p=0.00035 Bonferroni-corrected).ConclusionsBlockade of IL-17A was ineffective and higher rates of adverse events were noted compared with placebo.Clinical trial registrationThis trial was registered at ClinicalTrial.gov with the number NCT01009281.

Project description:Objective: The pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) still protracts worldwide. HFB30132A is an anti- SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibody purposely engineered for an extended half-life with neutralizing activity against majority of the virus variants identified so far. The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and immunogenicity of HFB30132A in healthy Chinese subjects. Methods: A phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single ascending dose clinical trial was designed. Twenty subjects were enrolled to Cohort 1 (1,000 mg dose level, 10 subjects) or Cohort 2 (2,000 mg dose level, 10 subjects). Subjects in each cohort were assigned randomly to receive a single intravenous (IV) dose of HFB30132A or placebo at a ratio of 8:2. Safety was assessed in terms of treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs), vital signs, physical examination, laboratory tests, and ECG findings. PK parameters were measured and calculated appropriately. Anti-drug antibody (ADA) test was performed to detect anti-HFB30132A antibodies. Results: All subjects completed the study. Overall, 13 (65%) of the 20 subjects experienced TEAEs. The most common TEAEs were laboratory abnormalities (12 subjects [60%]), gastrointestinal disorders (6 subjects [30%]), and dizziness (4 subjects [20%]). All TEAEs were Grade 1 or Grade 2 in severity based on the criteria of Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE). Serum exposure (Cmax, AUC0-t, AUC0-∞) of HFB30132A increased with ascending dose. After single dose of 1,000 mg and 2000 mg HFB30132A, the mean Cmax was 570.18 μg/mL and 898.65 μg/mL, the mean AUC0-t value was 644,749.42 h*μg/mL and 1,046,209.06 h*μg/mL, and the mean AUC0-∞ value was 806,127.47 h*μg/mL and 1,299,190.74 h*μg/mL, respectively. HFB30132A showed low clearance ranging from 1.38 to 1.59 mL/h, and a long terminal elimination half-life (t½) of 89-107 days. ADA test did not detect any anti-HFB30132A antibodies Conclusion: HFB30132A was safe and generally well-tolerated after single IV dose of 1,000 mg or 2000 mg in healthy Chinese adults. HFB30132A did not induce immunogenic response in this study. Our data support further clinical development of HFB30132A.
