Evaluating the efficacy and safety of 6-week extended interval dosing of natalizumab via a prospective, controlled, randomized, open-label, rater-blinded phase 3b study (P3.2-095)
Neurology(2019)
摘要
Objective: To describe the design of a phase 3b study to evaluate the efficacy of extended interval dosing (EID) natalizumab. Background: Natalizumab, a highly efficacious therapy for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS), is associated with risk of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). A recent analysis of the TOUCH dataset demonstrated that EID is associated with significantly lower PML risk in anti–JC virus seropositive patients. There have been no randomized studies to assess EID efficacy. Design/Methods: A prospective, interventional, randomized, controlled, rater-blinded, multinational study will be conducted. Eligibility requirements include age 18–60, diagnosis of RRMS, Expanded Disability Status Scale ≤5.5, stable on standard interval dosing (SID) natalizumab for ≥1 year with no relapses in the prior year, no prior immunosuppressant use, and no gadolinium-enhancing (Gd+) lesions at screening. Patients will be randomized 1:1 to natalizumab SID (every 4 weeks) or EID (every 6 weeks). Study duration will be 88 weeks (4 weeks screening, 72 weeks randomized treatment, 12 weeks follow-up). The primary endpoint is number of new/newly enlarging T2 lesions at 48 weeks. Key secondary endpoints include time to relapse, relapse rate, number of new MRI lesions, and incidence of serious adverse events. Exploratory endpoints include Timed 25-Foot Walk, Nine-Hole Peg Test, Symbol Digit Modality Test, and confirmed disability worsening or improvement. Natalizumab serum concentration, alpha-4 integrin saturation, lymphocyte counts, and body weight will be collected to explore relationships between pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics and efficacy. Results: Approximately 480 patients will be enrolled. Detailed rationales for study patient population and sample size, dosing intervals, and primary endpoint choice will be presented. Conclusions: This study will provide the first randomized, controlled efficacy data for patients treated with EID natalizumab which, in conjunction with safety data, will inform on the potential of EID as a future PML risk mitigation strategy.
