ABSTRACT
Involvement of lower gastrointestinal tract (LGI) occurs in 60% of patients with graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD). Complement components C3 and C5 are involved in GVHD pathogenesis. In this phase 2a study, we evaluated the safety and efficacy of ALXN1007, a monoclonal antibody against C5a, in patients with newly diagnosed LGI acute GVHD receiving concomitant corticosteroid. Twenty-five patients were enrolled; one was excluded from the efficacy analysis based upon negative biopsy. Most patients (16/25, 64%) had acute leukemia; 52% (13/25) had an HLA-matched unrelated donor; and 68% (17/25) received myeloablative conditioning. Half the patients (12/24) had a high biomarker profile, Ann Arbor score 3; 42% (10/24) had high-risk GVHD per Minnesota classification. Day-28 overall response was 58% (13/24 complete response, 1/24 partial response), and 63% by Day-56 (all complete responses). Day-28 overall response was 50% (5/10) in Minnesota high-risk and 42% (5/12) in high-risk Ann Arbor patients, increasing to 58% (7/12) by Day-56. Non-relapse mortality at 6-months was 24% (95% CI 11-53). The most common treatment-related adverse event was infection (6/25, 24%). Neither baseline complement levels (except for C5), activity, nor inhibition of C5a with ALXN1007 correlated with GVHD severity or responses. Further studies are needed to evaluate the role of complement inhibition in GVHD treatment.
