Bowel preparation with 1L polyethylene glycol and ascorbate NER1006 doubles the chance to detect three or more adenomas in overweight or obese males.

ABSTRACT: Background and study aims Men have more colon cleansing failures, colorectal adenomas, and colorectal cancers than women. We analyzed whether 1-liter (1 L) polyethylene glycol (PEG) NER1006 improves high-quality (HQ) colon cleansing and adenoma detection in males versus two mid-volume alternatives. Patients and methods The analysis of 1028 adult patients in two randomized clinical trials was performed. Adenoma detection and HQ cleansing were compared for overnight split dosing regimens with NER1006 (n = 513) versus combined oral sulfate solution or 2 L PEG + ascorbate (OSS/2 L PEG) (n = 515). Analyses included males versus females, overweight or obese (OO) males versus lean males, and NER1006 versus OSS/2 L PEG. In male patients, the adenoma detection rate of at least 3 (ADR3 +) was predicted with multiple logistic regression and statistical comparisons used the two-sided t-test. Results ADR3 + was greater in males versus females (10.7 % [56/524] versus 5.8 % [29/504]; P = 0.004) despite comparable adequate cleansing success rates (93.2 % [479/514] versus 93.0 % [466/501]; P = 0.912) and more HQ-scores in females (41.6 % [1069/2570] versus 45.3 % [1134/2505]; P = 0.008). ADR was almost twice as high in OO versus lean males (43.4 % [184/424] versus 23.1 % [21/91]; P < 0.001). Multivariate logistic regression predicted ADR3 + detection to be twice as likely in OO males using NER1006 versus OSS/2 L PEG (odds ratio (95 % confidence interval [CI]) = 2.049 (1.082-3.973); P = 0.030) and 90 % more likely in all males (1.902 (1.045-3.526); P = 0.037). In males, including OO males, NER1006 attained more HQ-scores per trial than OSS or 2 L PEG (P ≤ 0.017 for all comparisons). Conclusions NER1006 predicted the detection of more males for frequent surveillance than OSS/2 L PEG.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Polyethylene glycol (PEG) is widely used in industry and medicine. Anti-PEG antibodies have been developed for characterizing PEGylated drugs and other applications. However, the underlying mechanism for specific PEG binding has not been elucidated. METHODS:The Fab of two cognate anti-PEG antibodies 3.3 and 2B5 were each crystallized in complex with PEG, and their structures were determined by X-ray diffraction. The PEG-Fab interactions in these two crystals were analyzed and compared with those in a PEG-containing crystal of an unrelated anti-hemagglutinin 32D6-Fab. The PEG-binding stoichiometry was examined by using analytical ultracentrifuge (AUC). RESULTS:A common PEG-binding mode to 3.3 and 2B5 is seen with an S-shaped core PEG fragment bound to two dyad-related Fab molecules. A nearby satellite binding site may accommodate parts of a longer PEG molecule. The core PEG fragment mainly interacts with the heavy-chain residues D31, W33, L102, Y103 and Y104, making extensive contacts with the aromatic side chains. At the center of each half-circle of the S-shaped PEG, a water molecule makes alternating hydrogen bonds to the ether oxygen atoms, in a similar configuration to that of a crown ether-bound lysine. Each satellite fragment is clamped between two arginine residues, R52 from the heavy chain and R29 from the light chain, and also interacts with several aromatic side chains. In contrast, the non-specifically bound PEG fragments in the 32D6-Fab crystal are located in the elbow region or at lattice contacts. The AUC data suggest that 3.3-Fab exists as a monomer in PEG-free solution but forms a dimer in the presence of PEG-550-MME, which is about the size of the S-shaped core PEG fragment. CONCLUSIONS:The differing amino acids in 3.3 and 2B5 are not involved in PEG binding but engaged in dimer formation. In particular, the light-chain residue K53 of 2B5-Fab makes significant contacts with the other Fab in a dimer, whereas the corresponding N53 of 3.3-Fab does not. This difference in the protein-protein interaction between two Fab molecules in a dimer may explain the temperature dependence of 2B5 in PEG binding, as well as its inhibition by crown ether.
