Population pharmacokinetics of belantamab mafodotin, a BCMA-targeting agent in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.

ABSTRACT: Belantamab mafodotin (belamaf) is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) targeting B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA). Nonlinear mixed-effects models were developed to characterize the population pharmacokinetics (PopPK) of ADC, total monoclonal antibody (mAb), and cysteine-maleimidocaproyl-MMAF (cys-mcMMAF) after 0.03-4.6 mg/kg dosing every 3 weeks in heavily pretreated patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM; DREAMM-1, n = 73; DREAMM-2, n = 218). Sequential modeling methodology was used. Individual post hoc parameter estimates from the final ADC model were used to develop total mAb and cys-mcMMAF models. Formal covariate selection used a modified stepwise forward inclusion method with backward elimination. A linear, two-compartment PopPK model with a time-varying clearance (CL) described ADC PK. Initial ADC typical value for CL for a DREAMM-2 patient was 0.936 L/day with a half-life of 11.5 days, over time CL was reduced by 28% resulting in a half-life of 14.3 days. Time to 50% maximal CL change was ~ 50 days. Baseline soluble BCMA (sBCMA), immunoglobulin (IgG), albumin, and bodyweight impacted ADC CL. Cys-mcMMAF concentrations were described with a linear two-compartment model linked to ADC; input rate was governed by deconjugation/intracellular proteolytic degradation of ADC represented by an exponentially decreasing MMAF:mAb (drug antibody ratio [DAR]) after each dose. Time to 50% DAR reduction was 10.3 days. Baseline sBCMA and IgG impacted cys-mcMMAF central volume of distribution. In conclusion, ADC, total mAb, and cys-mcMMAF concentration-time profiles in RRMM were well-described by PopPK models, and exposure was most strongly impacted by disease-related characteristics.

Project description:BackgroundOn the basis of the DREAMM-2 study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT03525678), single-agent belantamab mafodotin (belamaf) was approved for patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) who received ≥4 prior therapies, including anti-CD38 therapy. The authors investigated longer term efficacy and safety outcomes in DREAMM-2 after 13 months of follow-up among patients who received belamaf 2.5 mg/kg.MethodsDREAMM-2 is an ongoing, phase 2, open-label, 2-arm study investigating belamaf (2.5 or 3.4 mg/kg) in patients with RRMM who had disease progression after ≥3 lines of therapy and were refractory to immunomodulatory drugs and proteasome inhibitors and refractory and/or intolerant to an anti-CD38 therapy. The primary outcome was the proportion of patients that achieved an overall response, assessed by an independent review committee.ResultsAs of January 31, 2020, 10% of patients still received belamaf 2.5 mg/kg. Thirty-one of 97 patients (32%; 97.5% confidence interval [CI], 21.7%-43.6%) achieved an overall response, and 18 responders achieved a very good partial response or better. Median estimated duration of response, overall survival, and progression-free survival were 11.0 months (95% CI, 4.2 months to not reached), 13.7 months (95% CI, 9.9 months to not reached), and 2.8 months (95% CI, 1.6-3.6 months), respectively. Response and survival outcomes in patients who had high-risk cytogenetics or renal impairment were consistent with outcomes in the overall population. Outcomes were poorer in patients with extramedullary disease. In patients who had a clinical response and prolonged dose delays (>63 days; mainly because of corneal events), 88% maintained or deepened responses during their first prolonged dose delay. Overall, there were no new safety signals during this follow-up.ConclusionsExtended follow-up confirms sustained clinical activity without new safety signals with belamaf in this heavily pretreated patient population with RRMM.
