Safety and Tolerability of Manual Push Administration of Subcutaneous IgPro20 at High Infusion Rates in Patients with Primary Immunodeficiency: Findings from the Manual Push Administration Cohort of the HILO Study.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To evaluate the safety and tolerability of IgPro20 manual push (also known as rapid push) infusions at flow rates of 0.5-2.0 mL/min.

Methods

Patients with primary immunodeficiency (PID) with previous experience administering IgPro20 (Hizentra^®, CSL Behring, King of Prussia, PA, USA) were enrolled in the Hizentra^® Label Optimization (HILO) study (NCT03033745) and assigned to Pump-assisted Volume Cohort, Pump-assisted Flow Rate Cohort, or Manual Push Flow Rate Cohort; this report describes the latter. Patients administered IgPro20 via manual push at 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 mL/min/site for 4 weeks each. Responder rates (percentage of patients who completed a predefined minimum number of infusions), safety outcomes, and serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) trough levels were evaluated.

Results

Sixteen patients were treated; 2 patients (12.5%) discontinued at the 1.0-mL/min level (unrelated to treatment). Responder rates were 100%, 100%, and 87.5% at 0.5-, 1.0-, and 2.0-mL/min flow rates, respectively. Mean weekly infusion duration decreased from 103-108 to 23-28 min at the 0.5- and 2.0-mL/min flow rates, respectively. Rates of treatment-related treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) per infusion were 0.023, 0.082, and 0.025 for the 0.5-, 1.0-, and 2.0-mL/min flow rates, respectively. Most TEAEs were mild local reactions and tolerability (infusions without severe local reactions/total infusions) was 100% across flow rate levels. Serum IgG levels (mean [SD]) were similar at study start (9.36 [2.53] g/L) and end (9.58 [2.12] g/L).

Conclusions

Subcutaneous IgPro20 manual push infusions at flow rates up to 2.0 mL/min were well tolerated and reduced infusion time in treatment-experienced patients with PID.

Project description:ObjectivesThis study aimed to evaluate and compare local tolerability of investigational drug TV-46046 and reference drug Depo-subQ Provera 104, both containing medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) as an active ingredient.Study designWe conducted a randomized, crossover, single-center study. Twenty-seven healthy women aged 25 to 47 years at low risk of pregnancy received a subcutaneous injection of each of the four study drugs (120 mg/0.3 mL of TV-46046, 60 mg/0.3 mL of diluted TV-46046, 0.3 mL of TV-46046 placebo, and 104 mg/0.65 mL of Depo-subQ 104) in different quadrants of the abdomen. We assessed local tolerability by occurrence of injection site reactions (ISRs), as well as injection site pain and overall safety for at least 9 months postinjections.ResultsOf a total of 108 study injections, three injections were partial due to needle blockage. We observed a total of 30 ISRs following 105 full-dose injections, including hypopigmentation (n = 24), bruising (n = 4), and atrophy/dimple (n = 2). Eleven cases of hypopigmentation occurred following 25 full-dose injections of undiluted TV-46046 (44.0%), six following 27 full-dose injections of diluted TV-46046 (22.2%), and seven following 26 full-dose injections of Depo-subQ 104 (26.9%). Hypopigmentations occurred on average 8 months postinjection. Injection pain was minimal and dissipated quickly after all four injections.ConclusionsSubcutaneous administration of MPA in a suspension formulation is associated with the delayed onset of hypopigmentation at the site of injection. Although not statistically significant, the rate of ISRs was over 60% higher for undiluted TV-46046 compared to Depo-subQ 104. This difference bears careful monitoring in future studies of TV-46046.ImplicationsFrom a safety standpoint, investigational drug TV-46046 is appropriate for further clinical testing as a 6-month contraceptive injectable. The previously underreported hypopigmentation associated with subcutaneous administration of MPA warrants further investigation and acceptability assessment among users of existing Depo-subQ 104 as well as careful monitoring of local tolerability of TV-46046 in future clinical trials.Trial registrationRegistered at clinicaltrials.gov no: NCT02817464.
