RESUMO
PURPOSE: To model absolute neutrophil count (ANC) suppression in response to acute radiation (AR) exposure and evaluate ANC time course as a predictor of overall survival (OS) in response to AR exposure with or without treatment with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor in nonhuman primates. METHODS: Source data were obtained from two pivotal studies conducted in rhesus macaques exposed to 750 cGy of whole body irradiation on day 0 that received either placebo, daily filgrastim, or pegfilgrastim (days 1 and 8 after irradiation). Animals were observed for 60 days with ANC measured every 1 to 2 days. The population model of ANC response to AR and the link between observed ANC time course and OS consisted of three submodels characterizing injury due to radiation, granulopoiesis, and a time-to-event model of OS. RESULTS: The ANC response model accurately described the effects of AR exposure on the duration of neutropenia. ANC was a valid surrogate for survival because it explained 76% (95% CI, 41%-97%) and 73.2% (95% CI, 38.7%-99.9%) of the treatment effect for filgrastim and pegfilgrastim, respectively. CONCLUSION: The current model linking radiation injury to neutropenia and ANC time course to OS can be used as a basis for translating these effects to humans.

AIMS: The aims of this study were to develop a pharmacokinetic (PK) and PK-pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) model of cinacalcet in adults and paediatrics with secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) on dialysis, to test covariates of interest, and to perform simulations to inform dosing in paediatrics with SHPT. METHODS: Cinacalcet PK, intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) and corrected calcium (cCa) time courses following multiple daily oral doses (1-300 mg) were modelled using a nonlinear mixed effects modelling approach using data from eight clinical studies. Model-based trial simulations, using adult or paediatric titration schemas, predicted efficacy (iPTH change from baseline and proportion achieving iPTH decrease ≥30%) and safety (cCa change from baseline and proportion achieving cCa ≤8.4 mg/dL) endpoints at 24 weeks. RESULTS: Cinacalcet PK parameters were described by a two-compartment linear model with delayed first-order absorption-elimination (apparent clearance = 287.74 L h-1 ). Simulations suggested that paediatric starting doses (1, 2.5, 5, 10 and 15 mg) would provide PK exposures less than or similar to a 30 mg adult dose. The titrated dose simulations suggested that the mean (prediction interval) proportion of paediatric and adult subjects achieving ≥30% reduction in iPTH from baseline at Week 24 was 49% (36%, 62%), and 70.1% (62.5%, 77%), respectively. Additionally, the mean (confidence interval) proportion of paediatric and adult subjects achieving cCa ≤8.4 mg dL-1 at Week 24 was 8% (2%, 18%) and 23.6% (17.5%, 30.5%), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Model-based simulations showed that the paediatric cinacalcet starting dose (0.2 mg kg-1 ), titrated to effect, would provide the desired PD efficacy (PTH suppression <30%) while minimizing safety concerns (hypocalcaemia).

PURPOSE: To investigate the relationships between AMG 811 exposure, concentration changes in serum IFN-γ, and IFN-γ-induced protein 10 (CXCL10), and to identify important contributions of baseline covariates to these relationships. METHODS: A mechanism based pharmacokinetic (PK)-pharmacodynamic (PD) model was developed. A target mediated disposition model was used to describe AMG 811 and target IFN-γ interaction. CXCL10 was predicted to be driven by estimated free IFN-γ levels. RESULTS: For an average systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) subject, the linear clearance (CL) of AMG 811 was 0.176 L/day, and the central (Vc) and peripheral (Vp) volumes of distribution were 1.48 and 2.12 L, respectively. Body weight was found to correlate with CL, Vc, Vp, and inter compartment clearance (Q); and age was found to correlate with Vc. The relationship between estimated free serum IFN-γ concentration levels and serum CXCL10 in logarithmic scales was best described by a linear model with slope and intercept estimated to be 0.197 and -0.3, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The largest observed reduction of serum CXCL10 concentration was achieved at the highest AMG 811 dose tested (180 mg SC). This model enables simulations of AMG 811 PK-PD profiles under various dosing regimens to support future clinical studies.

PURPOSE: For AMG 317, a fully human monoclonal antibody to interleukin receptor IL-4Rα, we developed a population pharmacokinetic (PK) model by fitting data from four early phase clinical trials of intravenous and subcutaneous (SC) routes simultaneously, investigated important PK covariates, and explored the relationship between exposure and IgE response. METHODS: Data for 294 subjects and 2183 AMG 317 plasma concentrations from three Phase 1 and 1 Phase 2 studies were analyzed by nonlinear mixed effects modeling using first-order conditional estimation with interaction. The relationship of IgE response with post hoc estimates of exposure generated from the final PK model was explored based on data from asthmatic patients. RESULTS: The best structural model was a two-compartment quasi-steady-state target-mediated drug disposition model with linear and non-linear clearances. For a typical 80-kg, 40-year subject, linear clearance was 35.0 mL/hr, central and peripheral volumes of distribution were 1.78 and 5.03 L, respectively, and SC bioavailability was 24.3%. Body weight was an important covariate on linear clearance and central volume; age influenced absorption rate. A significant treatment effect was observable between the cumulative AUC and IgE response measured. CONCLUSION: The population PK model adequately described AMG 317 PK from IV and SC routes over a 60-fold range of doses with two dosing strengths across multiple studies covering healthy volunteers and patients with mild to severe asthma. IgE response across a range of doses and over the sampling time points was found to be related to cumulative AMG 317 exposure.

INTRODUCTION: Etelcalcetide is a novel calcimimetic that binds and activates calcium-sensing receptors (CaSRs) for the treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT). METHODS: To assess titrated dosing regimens, population pharmacokinetic (PK) and PK/pharmacodynamic (PKPD) modeling of etelcalcetide was performed using NONMEM 7.2. In this analysis, plasma etelcalcetide, serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) and calcium (Ca) concentration-time data were collected from five phase I, II, and III clinical trials following single or multiple intravenous doses of etelcalcetide ranging from 2.5 to 60 mg. A semi-mechanistic model was used to describe the relationship between etelcalcetide, PTH, and Ca. This model included the role of PTH in Ca regulation, the feedback of Ca onto PTH production via the CaSR, and the activity of etelcalcetide plasma levels in increasing the sensitivity of the CaSR to Ca via the cooperative binding model. The impact of relevant covariates was evaluated by stepwise forward/backward selection. Model evaluation was based on standard goodness-of-fit plots and prediction-corrected visual predictive checks (pcVPCs). Simulation was conducted to evaluate titrated dosing regimens. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: The time courses of etelcalcetide, PTH, and Ca were well-described by the model. The clearance and central volume of distribution (Vc) of etelcalcetide were 0.472 L/h and 49.9 L, respectively, while estimates of the turnover half-lives of PTH and Ca were 0.36 and 23 h, respectively. The extent of interindividual variability in model parameters was low to moderate (6-67%), and no covariates were identified as significant predictors of PK and PD variability. pcVPCs confirmed the predictive ability of the model. CONCLUSIONS: The current analysis confirms the putative mechanism of action of etelcalcetide as an allosteric activator of CaSR. Simulations showed that dose titration of etelcalcetide, rather than fixed dose, is needed to effectively decrease the PTH level in patient populations.

Panitumumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody targeted to the extracellular domain of human epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). A comprehensive population pharmacokinetic model of panitumumab was developed using nonlinear mixed-effects modeling of 1200 patients with advanced solid tumors in 14 clinical studies. The disposition of panitumumab was best described with a 2-compartment model with parallel linear and nonlinear (Michaelis-Menten) elimination pathways. For a typical male patient with colorectal cancer (80 kg, 60 years old), the estimates for the linear clearance (CL), the maximum nonlinear clearance (V(max)/K(m)), the central volume of distribution (V(1)), the peripheral volume of distribution (V(2)), and the Michaelis-Menten constant (K(m)) are 0.273 L/d, 28.4 L/d, 3.95 L, 2.59 L, and 0.426 mcg/mL, respectively. Baseline covariates such as body weight, cancer type, age, sex, and race were studied for their influence on panitumumab pharmacokinetics. Body weight was found to be the most influential covariate on panitumumab exposure, affecting CL, V(max), and V(1). The administration of concomitant chemotherapy (IFL, FOLFIRI, or paclitaxel/carboplatin) or intensity of baseline tumor EGFR expression did not alter the pharmacokinetics of panitumumab. The presence of antipanitumumab antibodies in patients (immunogenicity rate 3.4%) did not appear to affect panitumumab exposure substantially (AUC difference 8%). In support of a new drug application in Japan, the model was used to assess panitumumab pharmacokinetics in Japanese patients compared to other racial groups; there were no significant differences in model-predicted steady-state panitumumab AUC, C(max), or C(min) after accounting for the effect of body weight.

The ICOS (Inducible T cell Co-Stimulator)/B7RP-1 (B7-related protein 1) interaction is critical for the proper activation of a T lymphocyte. In this manuscript we describe a systematic in vivo approach to determine the level of blockade required to impair the generation of a T cell-dependent antibody response. We have developed an overall strategy for correlating drug exposure, target saturation, and efficacy in a biological response that can be generalized for most protein therapeutics. Using this strategy, we determined that low levels of B7RP-1 blockade are still sufficient to inhibit the immune response. These data suggest that contact between the T cell and the antigen-presenting cell during antigen presentation is much more sensitive to inhibition than previously believed and that ICOS/B7RP-1 blockade may be efficacious in the treatment of autoimmune diseases.
