ABSTRACT
Purpose:
This study evaluated the safety and efficacy of inhaled nemiralisib, a phosphoinositide 3-kinase δ (PI3Kδ) inhibitor, in patients with an acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Methods:
In this double-blind, placebo-controlled study, 126 patients (40-80 years with a post-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in 1 sec (FEV1) ≤80% of predicted (previously documented)) were randomized 11 to once daily inhaled nemiralisib (1 mg) or placebo for 84 days, added to standard of care. The primary endpoint was specific imaging airway volume (siVaw) after 28 treatment days and was analyzed using a Bayesian repeated measures model (clintrials.gov NCT02294734).Results:
A total of 126 patients were randomized to treatment; 55 on active treatment and 49 on placebo completed the study. When comparing nemiralisib and placebo-treated patients, an 18% placebo-corrected increase from baseline in distal siVaw (95% credible intervals (Cr I) (-1%, 42%)) was observed on Day 28. The probability that the true treatment ratio was >0% (Pr(θ>0)) was 96%, suggestive of a real treatment effect. Improvements were observed across all lung lobes. Patients treated with nemiralisib experienced a 107.3 mL improvement in posterior median FEV1 (change from baseline, 95% Cr I (-2.1, 215.5)) at day 84, compared with placebo. Adverse events were reported by 41 patients on placebo and 49 on nemiralisib, the most common being post-inhalation cough on nemiralisib (35%) vs placebo (3%).Conclusion:
These data show that addition of nemiralisib to usual care delivers more effective recovery from an acute exacerbation and improves lung function parameters including siVaw and FEV1. Although post-inhalation cough was identified, nemiralisib was otherwise well tolerated, providing a promising novel therapy for this acutely ill patient group.Palavras-chave
