Abstract
Prérequis/contexte
Remibrutinib (REM) is an oral, highly selective Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor that has shown superior efficacy vs placebo (Pbo) and favorable safety in the primary analysis of the Phase 3 REMIX-1/-2 studies in patients with chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) inadequately controlled with H1-antihistamines (AH).
Objectifs
Herein we report the outcome over 52 weeks, including a post-hoc analysis for week (Wk) 1.
Méthodes
Patients were randomised 2: 1 to REM 25 mg twice daily (bid) or Pbo over a 24-week double-blind (DB) period, followed by 28 weeks open-label treatment with REM 25 mg bid for all patients. The primary endpoints were change from baseline (CFB) at Wk 12 in weekly Urticaria Activity Score (UAS7) and weekly Itch and Hives Severity Scores (ISS7/HSS7). Endpoints were also assessed at Wks 1, 24 and 52, along with adverse events (AEs) throughout the study.
Résultats/discussions
A total of 470 patients (REM n = 313; Pbo, n = 157) and 455 patients (REM n = 300; Pbo n = 155) were randomised in REMIX-1/-2, respectively. At Wk 1, for CFB-UAS7, REM showed significantly greater improvements vs Pbo (mean CFB-UAS7 in REMIX-1: −11.28 vs −4.04, in REMIX-2: −11.26 vs −2.90). REM demonstrated superiority at Wk 12 and improvements were sustained up to Wk 52 in the REM arm (mean CFB-UAS7 in REMIX-1: −23.2; in REMIX-2: −23.0). Significant improvement in the proportion of patients achieving UAS7 ≤ 6 was observed as early as Wk 1 with REM vs Pbo in REMIX-1/-2 (P = 0.001). At Wk 12 and up to Wk 52, statistically significantly more patients achieved UAS7 ≤ 6 and UAS7 = 0 with REM vs Pbo in both studies. In patients switching to REM at Wk 24, improvements were observed, in line with REM arm results. REM was well tolerated with long-term treatment up to Wk 52, with no increase in exposure adjusted incidence rates of AEs/SAEs during the entire study period vs 24-week DB period.
Conclusion
REM showed fast efficacy as early as Wk 1, with further improvements at Wk 12, sustained up to Wk 52, with a favorable safety profile in the REMIX-1/-2 studies. REM has the potential to be an effective novel oral treatment option for CSU patients inadequately controlled with AH.
期刊介绍:
La Revue Française d''Allergologie : un véritable forum pour faire connaître des travaux originaux et permettre la diffusion de l''information auprès de toutes les spécialités concernées par les pathologies allergiques. La Revue Française d''Allergologie (8 numéros par an) est au carrefour de nombreuses spécialités - dermatologie, pédiatrie, ORL, pneumologie, ophtalmologie, médecine interne - qui, toutes, ont à traiter des maladies allergiques. Les symptômes des allergies fondés sur des mécanismes communs sont le plus souvent associés et se succèdent chez un même patient. En forte progression depuis 20 ans, les maladies allergiques sont dans l''attente de perfectionnements et d''avancées thérapeutiques qui permettront aux nombreux patients qui en sont atteints de mieux vivre avec leurs allergies. La Revue Française d''Allergologie se veut donc un véritable forum de discussions et d''échanges entre tous les spécialistes confrontés aux pathologies
