A systems pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic model for concizumab to explore the potential of anti-TFPI recycling antibodies.

ABSTRACT: Concizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody in clinical investigation directed against membrane-bound and soluble tissue factor pathway inhibitor (mTFPI and sTFPI) for treatment of hemophilia. Concizumab displays a non-linear pharmacokinetic (PK) profile due to mTFPI-mediated endocytosis and necessitates a high dose and frequent dosing to suppress the abundant sTFPI, a negative regulator of coagulation. Recycling antibodies that can dissociate bound mTFPI/sTFPI in endosomes for degradation and rescue antibody from degradation have a potential in reducing the dose by extending antibody systemic persistence and sTFPI suppression. We developed a systems PK/pharmacodynamics (PD) model with nested endosome compartments to simulate the effect of decreased antibody binding to mTFPI/sTFPI in endosomes on antibody clearance and sTFPI suppression for exploring the potential of anti-TFPI recycling antibodies in reducing the dose. A dynamic model-building strategy was taken. A reduced PK/PD model without the endosome compartments was developed to optimize unknown target turnover parameters using concizumab PK data. The optimized parameters were then employed in the systems PK/PD model for simulations. The obtained systems PK/PD model adequately described the PK of concizumab in rabbits, monkeys, and humans and the PD in humans. The systems PK/PD model predicted that an anti-TFPI recycling antibody with a 100-fold higher mTFPI/sTFPI dissociation constant in endosomes than concizumab can extend sTFPI suppression from 12?days to 1?month. Thus, the systems PK/PD model provides a quantitative platform for guiding the engineering and translational development of anti-TFPI recycling antibodies.

Project description:The specific B-cell depleting anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody rituximab (RTX) is effective in terms of the treatment of various immune-mediated glomerulopathies. The administration of RTX has been shown to be reliable and highly effective particularly in patients with ANCA-associated vasculitis, which is manifested predominantly with non-nephrotic proteinuria. Stable long-term B-cell depletion is usually readily attained in such patients using standard dosing regimens. However, in patients with nephrotic syndrome and non-selective proteinuria, the RTX pharmacokinetics is altered profoundly and RTX does not maintain high enough levels for a sufficiently long period, which may render RTX treatment ineffective. Since complement-derived cytotoxicity is one of the important modes of action of RTX, hypocomplementemia, frequently associated with systemic lupus erythematodes, may act to hamper the efficacy of RTX in the treatment of patients with lupus nephritis. This review provides a description of RTX pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in several selected glomerulopathies, as well as the impact of proteinuria, anti-drug antibodies and other clinical variables on the clearance and volume of distribution of RTX. The impact of plasmapheresis and peritoneal dialysis on the clearance of RTX is also discussed in the paper. A review is provided of the potential association between pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic alterations in various kidney-affecting glomerular diseases, the sustainability of B-cell depletion and the clinical efficacy of RTX, with proposals for potential dosing implications. The role of therapeutic drug monitoring in treatment tailoring is also discussed, and various previously tested RTX dosing schedules are compared in terms of their clinical and laboratory treatment responses. Since alternative anti-CD20 molecules may prove effective in RTX unresponsive patients, their pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and current role in the treatment of glomerulopathies are also mentioned.

Project description:Background: The role of GABA-B neurotransmission in addiction has recently received increased attention, with clinical trials indicating that baclofen, a GABA-B receptor agonist, may reduce alcohol consumption, craving and promote abstinence. However, the optimal dose to treat alcohol dependence is unclear with patients requesting and tolerating much higher doses of baclofen, compared with other clinical uses. We assessed the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) of baclofen to provide insight into GABA-B sensitivity in this patient group, relative to controls. Methods: Male healthy volunteers (controls, n = 12) and abstinent alcohol dependent individuals (AD, n = 8) received single oral doses of baclofen or placebo in a 3-way crossover design. Controls received placebo/10 mg/60 mg baclofen in a randomized, double-blind design, AD received placebo/60 mg/90 mg baclofen in a single-blind design. PK/PD measures were recorded at baseline and multiple time-points up to 6 h post-dosing, including plasma baclofen, plasma growth hormone (GH), Subjective High Assessment Scale (SHAS) and biphasic alcohol effects scale (BAES). Repeated measures ANOVA analysis explored "change from baseline" dose, time, group, and interaction effects, t-tests compared peak effects. Results: Dose-dependent effects of baclofen on PK and PD measures were observed in both control and AD groups. Whilst there were no significant group differences in any baclofen PK parameters (t 1/2, t max , C max , AUC), marked differences in PD effects were clearly evident. In controls, 60 mg baclofen significantly increased total SHAS and BAES scores, and significantly increased plasma GH levels compared with placebo, with peak effects at 60-120 min, in line with its PK profile. In AD, 60 mg baclofen had limited effects on these parameters; SHAS scores, BAES scores and plasma GH levels were significantly blunted compared with controls (significant group*time interactions P = 0.0014, 0.0015 and P < 0.0001, respectively). Conclusions: Our study shows blunted sensitivity to baclofen in AD relative to controls, with no difference in PK suggesting a lower GABA-B receptor sensitivity. This may explain why higher baclofen doses are requested and tolerated in the treatment of alcohol dependence. Our data has implications for choice of dose in future clinical trials in AD and possibly other substances of dependence.

Project description:Canakinumab is a high-affinity human monoclonal anti-interleukin-1? (IL-1?) antibody of the IgG1/? isotype designed to bind and neutralize the activity of human IL-1?, a pro-inflammatory cytokine. Canakinumab is currently being investigated on the premise that it would exert anti-inflammatory effects on a broad spectrum of diseases, driven by IL-1?. This paper focuses on the analysis of the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic data from the canakinumab clinical development programme, describing results from the recently approved indication for the treatment of cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS) under the trade name ILARIS®, as well as diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, asthma and psoriasis. Canakinumab displays pharmacokinetic properties typical of an IgG1 antibody. In a CAPS patient weighing 70?kg, slow serum clearance (0.174?L/day) was observed with a low total volume of distribution at steady state (6.0?L), resulting in a long elimination half-life of 26 days. The subcutaneous absolute bioavailability was high (70%). Canakinumab displays linear pharmacokinetics, with a dose-proportional increase in exposure and no evidence of accelerated clearance or time-dependent changes in pharmacokinetics following repeated administration was observed. The pharmacokinetics of canakinumab in various diseases (e.g. CAPS, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis or asthma) are comparable to those in healthy individuals. No sex- or age-related pharmacokinetic differences were observed after correction for body weight. An increase in total IL-1? was observed in both healthy subjects and all patient populations following canakinumab dosing, reflecting the ability of canakinumab to bind circulating IL-1?. The kinetics of total IL-1? along with the pharmacokinetics of canakinumab were characterized by a population-based pharmacokinetic-binding model, where the apparent in vivo dissociation constant, signifying binding affinity of canakinumab to circulating IL-1?, was estimated at 1.07?±?0.173?nmol/L in CAPS patients. During development of canakinumab a cell line change was introduced. Pharmacokinetic characterization was performed in both animals and humans to assure that this manufacturing change did not affect the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic properties of canakinumab.
