Pharmacokinetic-Pharmacodynamic Modelling of Systemic IL13 Blockade by Monoclonal Antibody Therapy: A Free Assay Disguised as Total.

ABSTRACT: A sequential pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) model was built with Nonlinear Mixed Effects Modelling based on data from a first-in-human trial of a novel biologic, MEDI7836. MEDI7836 is a human immunoglobulin G1 lambda (IgG1λ-YTE) monoclonal antibody, with an Fc modification to reduce metabolic clearance. MEDI7836 specifically binds to, and functionally neutralizes interleukin-13. Thirty-two healthy male adults were enrolled into a dose-escalation clinical trial. Four active doses were tested (30, 105, 300, and 600 mg) with 6 volunteers enrolled per cohort. Eight volunteers received placebo as control. Following single subcutaneous administration (SC), individual time courses of serum MEDI7836 concentrations, and the resulting serum IL13 modulation in vivo, were quantified. A binding pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) indirect response model was built to characterize the exposure-driven modulation of the target over time by MEDI7836. While the validated bioanalytical assay specification quantified the level of free target (i.e., a free IL13 assay), emerging clinical data suggested dose-dependent increase in systemic IL13 concentration over time, indicative of a total IL13 assay. The target time course was modelled as a linear combination of free target and a percentage of the drug-target complex to fit the clinical data. This novel PK-PD modelling approach integrates independent knowledge about the assay characteristics to successfully elucidate apparently complex observations.

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.
