Determinants of response to inhaled extrafine triple therapy in asthma: analyses of TRIMARAN and TRIGGER.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:A 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. METHODS:These 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). RESULTS:Baseline 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. CONCLUSION:Overall, 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:BackgroundA single-inhaler extrafine triple combination of beclometasone dipropionate (BDP), formoterol fumarate (FF) and glycopyrronium (G) has been developed for maintenance therapy of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of BDP/FF/G in patients in three eastern Asian areas: China, Republic of Korea and Taiwan.MethodsTRIVERSYTI was a double-blind, randomised, active-controlled, parallel-group study in patients with COPD, post-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) < 50% predicted, ≥ 1 exacerbation in the previous 12 months, and receiving inhaled maintenance medication. Patients received either extrafine BDP/FF/G 100/6/10 µg via pressurised metered-dose inhaler, or non-extrafine budesonide/formoterol (BUD/FF) 160/4.5 µg via dry-powder inhaler, both administered as two puffs twice-daily for 24 weeks. The co-primary objectives (analysed in the overall population) were to demonstrate superiority of BDP/FF/G over BUD/FF for change from baseline in pre-dose morning and 2-h post-dose FEV1 at Week 24 (these were analysed as key secondary objectives in the China subgroup). The rate of moderate/severe COPD exacerbations was a secondary endpoint.ResultsOf 708 patients randomised, 88.8% completed. BDP/FF/G was superior to BUD/FF for pre-dose and 2-h post-dose FEV1 at Week 24 [adjusted mean differences 62 (95% CI 38, 85) mL and 113 (87, 140) mL; both p < 0.001]. The annualised moderate/severe exacerbation rate was 43% lower with BDP/FF/G [rate ratio 0.57 (95% CI 0.42, 0.77); p < 0.001]. Adverse events were reported by 61.1% and 67.0% patients with BDP/FF/G and BUD/FF. Results were similar in the China subgroup.ConclusionsIn patients with COPD, FEV1 < 50% and an exacerbation history despite maintenance therapy, treatment with extrafine BDP/FF/G improved bronchodilation, and was more effective at preventing moderate/severe COPD exacerbations than BUD/FF.
