ABSTRACT
BI 1021958, a novel antagonist of the chemoattractant-receptor-homologous molecule (CRTH2), targets airway inflammation in asthma by inhibiting prostaglandin binding to CRTH2 receptors. Two phase 1 studies assessed BI 1021958 safety/tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK)/pharmacodynamics (PD) following single doses in healthy men and multiple doses in men/women with well-controlled asthma. Studies 1 had 2 parts a placebo-controlled, fixed-sequence, single-blind, single-rising-dose part (n = 56) and a randomized, 2-way crossover, open-label, repeated-dose part studying the food effect on PK/PD (n = 12). Study 2 was a placebo-controlled, single-center, double-blind multiple-rising-dose study (n = 84). Primary end points were safety/tolerability and PK/PD (both studies); secondary end points were eosinophil shape change (ESC; study 1) and dose proportionality/linearity following first dose and at steady state (study 2). BI 1021958 was adequately tolerated in both studies; adverse events were infrequent, generally mild to moderate, and occurred similarly in treatment groups. Maximum measured concentration (Cmax ) was achieved in ≤2.5 hours in study 1 and ≤2.0 hours in study 2. BI 1021958 exposure increased proportionally with dose. In study 1, following a single 60-mg dose, AUC parameters and Cmax were 20% and 15% lower, respectively, after a high-fat meal compared with the fasted state. After ≥60-mg single doses (study 1) and >40-mg multiple doses (study 2), >95% ESC inhibition was observed for ≥24 hours. PK/PD was similar in healthy subjects and subjects with well-controlled asthma. Data support further investigation of CRTH2 antagonists for the treatment of asthma.
