Effect of Dupilumab in Korean Patients With Uncontrolled Moderate-to-Severe Asthma: A LIBERTY ASTHMA QUEST Sub-analysis
Purpose To assess the effect of dupilumab on the annualized severe exacerbation rates, change in forced expiratory volume at first second (FEV1), overall asthma control and health-related quality of life in Korean patients from the LIBERTY ASTHMA QUEST study. Methods Of the 1,902 patients enrolled in the LIBERTY ASTHMA QUEST study, a phase-3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study on dupilumab, 74 (4%) were Korean. The patients were randomly assigned to 4 treatment groups (2:2:1:1). The sub-analysis reported herewith was performed with the pooled groups of dupilumab and placebo from the 4 original treatment groups in the LIBERTY ASTHMA QUEST study. The efficacy endpoints were annualized rate of severe exacerbation events during the 52-week study period and changes from baseline in pre-bronchodilator FEV1 in week 12. Asthma control, asthma quality of life and the effect of treatment on the levels of type 2 inflammatory biomarkers were assessed. The safety profile was also evaluated. Results In Korean patients, annualized severe exacerbation rates were reduced with dupilumab (n = 49) compared to placebo (n = 25) (0.259 vs 1.942) during the 52-week treatment period. The relative risk reduction with dupilumab was 87% (P < 0.001). Improvements in pre-bronchodilator FEV1 (mean difference of 0.24 L, P = 0.021) were observed in week 12 in dupilumab-treated patients. Additionally, improvements in asthma control and asthma-related quality of life were observed; the FeNO and serum immunoglobulin E levels were reduced. The incidence of adverse events and serious adverse events was comparable between the dupilumab and placebo group. A total of 11 patients from the dupilumab group reported 63 injection site reactions. Conclusions Dupilumab, as an add-on therapy in severe asthma, is efficacious and has an acceptable safety profile in Korean patients. Trial Registration ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02414854
期刊介绍:
The journal features cutting-edge original research, brief communications, and state-of-the-art reviews in the specialties of allergy, asthma, and immunology, including clinical and experimental studies and instructive case reports. Contemporary reviews summarize information on topics for researchers and physicians in the fields of allergy and immunology. As of January 2017, AAIR do not accept case reports. However, if it is a clinically important case, authors can submit it in the form of letter to the Editor. Editorials and letters to the Editor explore controversial issues and encourage further discussion among physicians dealing with allergy, immunology, pediatric respirology, and related medical fields. AAIR also features topics in practice and management and recent advances in equipment and techniques for clinicians concerned with clinical manifestations of allergies and pediatric respiratory diseases.
