Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Exposure-Response of Lanadelumab for Hereditary Angioedema.

ABSTRACT: Hereditary angioedema (HAE) with C1 inhibitor deficiency is a rare disorder characterized by unpredictable, potentially life-threatening recurrent angioedema attacks. Lanadelumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody with selective binding to active plasma kallikrein, and prevents the formation of cleaved high molecular weight kininogen (cHMWK) and bradykinin, thereby preventing HAE attacks. The clinical pharmacology of lanadelumab was characterized following subcutaneous administration in 257 subjects (24 healthy subjects and 233 patients with HAE). The pharmacokinetics of lanadelumab were described using a one-compartment model with first-order rate of absorption and linear clearance, showing slow absorption and a long half-life (14.8 days). A covariate analysis retained body weight and health status on apparent clearance (CL/F) and body weight on volume of distribution (V/F). Population estimates of CL/F and V/F were 0.0249 L/hour (0.586 L/day) and 12.8 L, respectively. An indirect-response Imax model showed 53.7% maximum suppression in cHMWK formation with a low potential for interactions with concomitant medications (analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and antirheumatic medications). A 300 mg dose administered Q2W was associated with a mean steady-state minimum concentration (C_min,ss ; 25.4 ?g/mL) that was ~ 4.5-fold higher than the half-maximal inhibitory concentration for cHMWK reduction (5.71 ?g/mL). Exposure-response analyses suggest that 300 mg Q2W dosing was associated with a significantly reduced HAE attack rate, prolonged time to first attack after treatment initiation, and lower need for concomitant medications. The response was comparable across patient body weight groups. Findings from this analysis support the dosing rationale for lanadelumab to prevent attacks in patients with HAE.

Project description:ImportanceCurrent treatments for long-term prophylaxis in hereditary angioedema have limitations.ObjectiveTo assess the efficacy of lanadelumab, a fully human monoclonal antibody that selectively inhibits active plasma kallikrein, in preventing hereditary angioedema attacks.Design, setting, and participantsPhase 3, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled trial conducted at 41 sites in Canada, Europe, Jordan, and the United States. Patients were randomized between March 3, 2016, and September 9, 2016; last day of follow-up was April 13, 2017. Randomization was 2:1 lanadelumab to placebo; patients assigned to lanadelumab were further randomized 1:1:1 to 1 of the 3 dose regimens. Patients 12 years or older with hereditary angioedema type I or II underwent a 4-week run-in period and those with 1 or more hereditary angioedema attacks during run-in were randomized.InterventionsTwenty-six-week treatment with subcutaneous lanadelumab 150 mg every 4 weeks (n = 28), 300 mg every 4 weeks (n = 29), 300 mg every 2 weeks (n = 27), or placebo (n = 41). All patients received injections every 2 weeks, with those in the every-4-week group receiving placebo in between active treatments.Main outcome and measuresPrimary efficacy end point was the number of investigator-confirmed attacks of hereditary angioedema over the treatment period.ResultsAmong 125 patients randomized (mean age, 40.7 years [SD, 14.7 years]; 88 females [70.4%]; 113 white [90.4%]), 113 (90.4%) completed the study. During the run-in period, the mean number of hereditary angioedema attacks per month in the placebo group was 4.0; for the lanadelumab groups, 3.2 for the every-4-week 150-mg group; 3.7 for the every-4-week 300-mg group; and 3.5 for the every-2-week 300-mg group. During the treatment period, the mean number of attacks per month for the placebo group was 1.97; for the lanadelumab groups, 0.48 for the every-4-week 150-mg group; 0.53 for the every-4-week 300-mg group; and 0.26 for the every-2-week 300-mg group. Compared with placebo, the mean differences in the attack rate per month were -1.49 (95% CI, -1.90 to -1.08; P < .001); -1.44 (95% CI, -1.84 to -1.04; P < .001); and -1.71 (95% CI, -2.09 to -1.33; P < .001). The most commonly occurring adverse events with greater frequency in the lanadelumab treatment groups were injection site reactions (34.1% placebo, 52.4% lanadelumab) and dizziness (0% placebo, 6.0% lanadelumab).Conclusions and relevanceAmong patients with hereditary angioedema type I or II, treatment with subcutaneous lanadelumab for 26 weeks significantly reduced the attack rate compared with placebo. These findings support the use of lanadelumab as a prophylactic therapy for hereditary angioedema. Further research is needed to determine long-term safety and efficacy.Trial registrationEudraCT Identifier: 2015-003943-20; ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02586805.
