Acute Phase Reactions After Intravenous Infusion of Zoledronic Acid in Japanese Patients with Osteoporosis: Sub-analyses of the Phase III ZONE Study.

ABSTRACT: In a clinical trial involving Japanese patients with osteoporosis, post hoc analyses were performed to evaluate the incidence of acute phase reactions (APRs) after infusion of zoledronic acid (ZOL). The results highlighted differences in baseline factors between patients with vs without APRs. Changes in efficacy indicators such as bone turnover markers (BTMs) also showed significant differences. We, therefore, investigated the factors involved in the development of APRs in Japanese patients treated with a once-yearly intravenous infusion of ZOL 5 mg for 2 years by assessing the relation between APRs and efficacy. APRs reported in patients with primary osteoporosis from the ZONE study were analyzed post hoc. Baseline factors were compared in patients with vs without APRs, and changes in BTMs and bone mineral density (BMD) were also investigated. In the ZOL group, 51.2% (169/330) of patients developed APRs after the first infusion and 12.3% (33/268) after the second infusion. Comparison of baseline factors showed that patients without APRs in the ZOL group had a significantly higher neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio, lower serum levels of procollagen type I N-terminal propeptide, older age, and higher likelihood of prior bisphosphonate use vs patients with APRs. Patients with APRs showed significantly higher increases in total hip BMD at 6 and 12 months and larger reductions in BTMs vs patients without APRs. Patient profiles differed significantly between patients with vs without APRs, with APRs after the first infusion of ZOL being related to increases in total hip BMD and suppression of BTMs.This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (identifier: NCT01522521; January 31, 2012).

Project description:BackgroundTo investigate efficacy and safety of intravenous abatacept in Japanese patients with active polyarticular-course juvenile idiopathic arthritis (pJIA).MethodsIn this phase III, open-label, multicenter, single-arm study, patients with pJIA aged 4-17 years who failed ≥1 biologic or methotrexate received weight-tiered (< 75 kg: 10 mg/kg; 75-100 kg: 750 mg; > 100 kg: 1000 mg) intravenous abatacept at Weeks 0, 2, 4, and every 4 weeks thereafter. The study comprised a short-term period (16 weeks) and ongoing long-term period. Primary endpoint: Week 16 JIA-American College of Rheumatology criteria 30 (JIA-ACR30) response rate. Secondary endpoints/outcomes included Week 16 JIA-ACR50/70/90 response and inactive disease rates, Childhood Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index (CHAQ-DI), pharmacokinetics, safety, and immunogenicity. Proportions of patients achieving Juvenile Arthritis Disease Activity Score in 27 joints using C-reactive protein (JADAS27-CRP) remission (score < 1) and minimal disease activity (MDA; score < 3.8), were among exploratory endpoints.ResultsAll 20 patients who received study medication completed the short-term period. During the long-term period, two patients discontinued due to insufficient efficacy or patient decision. Median age and disease duration at baseline were 10.5 and 0.75 years, respectively. Week 16 JIA-ACR30 response rate (primary endpoint) was 90.0% (18/20). JIA-ACR50/70/90 response and inactive disease rates at Week 16 were 75.0% (15/20), 70.0% (14/20), 35.0% (7/20), and 25.0% (5/20), respectively. At Week 52, JIA-ACR30/50/70/90 response and inactive disease rates were observed by 88.9% (16/18), 88.9% (16/18), 83.3% (15/18), 66.7% (12/18) and 44.4% (8/18), respectively. CHAQ-DI improved after Week 12. JADAS27-CRP remission and MDA were achieved by 15.0% (3/20) and 45.0% (9/20) of patients at Week 16, and by 50.0% (9/18) and 78.0% (14/18) of patients at Week 52, respectively. The mean abatacept pre-dose serum concentration was above the target therapeutic exposure (10 μg/ml) from Week 8 through Week 16. All adverse events were of mild/moderate intensity, except for one case of severe gastroenteritis. No deaths, malignancies, or autoimmune disorders were observed. No antidrug antibodies were detected through Week 16; one patient had a positive immunogenic response during the cumulative period.ConclusionIntravenous abatacept was efficacious and well tolerated in Japanese patients with active pJIA.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov: NCT01835470 .

Project description:Zoledronic acid (ZOL) as a yearly infusion is effective in reducing fracture risk. An acute-phase reaction (APR), consisting of flu-like symptoms within 3 days after infusion, is commonly seen. The objective of this analysis was to investigate whether APR occurrence influences drug efficacy. This analysis uses data from the 3-year randomized clinical trial, Health Outcomes and Reduced Incidence with Zoledronic Acid Once Yearly-Pivotal Fracture Trial (HORIZON-PFT). APRs were identified as adverse events within 3 days of first infusion with higher frequency in ZOL than placebo. To compare mean 3-year change in bone mineral density (BMD) in ZOL versus placebo, among women with and without APR, t tests were used. Logistic regression was used to examine the relationship between APR occurrence and odds of incident morphometric vertebral fracture. Cox regression was used to determine the risk of nonvertebral and hip fractures for women with versus without APR. Logistic and Cox models were used to determine the risk of incident fracture in ZOL versus placebo for women with and without an APR. The analysis included 3862 women in the ZOL group and 3852 in placebo, with 42.4% in ZOL versus 11.8% in placebo experiencing an APR. The difference in BMD mean change for ZOL versus placebo was similar for women with and without an APR (all p interaction >0.10). Among ZOL women, those with APR had 51% lower vertebral fracture risk than those without (odds ratio [OR] = 0.49, p < 0.001). A similar but nonsignificant trend was observed for nonvertebral and hip fracture (relative hazard [RH] = 0.82, p = 0.10; RH = 0.70, p = 0.22, respectively). There was a greater treatment-related reduction in vertebral fracture risk among women with APR (OR = 0.19) than those without (OR = 0.38) (p interaction = 0.01). Our results suggest that women starting ZOL who experience an APR will have a larger reduction in vertebral fracture risk with ZOL. © 2021 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).
