Safety and Efficacy of Lirentelimab in Patients with Refractory Indolent Systemic Mastocytosis: a First-in-human Clinical Trial
BRITISH JOURNAL OF DERMATOLOGY(2023)
摘要
BACKGROUND:Indolent systemic mastocytosis (ISM) is characterized by excessive mast cell (MC) accumulation and MC-driven signs and symptoms. Currently used therapies are not approved and have limited efficacy. Lirentelimab (AK002) is a monoclonal antibody against sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectin (Siglec)-8 that inhibits MC activation.OBJECTIVES:To determine the safety, tolerability and efficacy of lirentelimab in reducing the symptoms of ISM.METHODS:At a specialty centre for mastocytosis in Germany, we conducted a phase I first-in-human single-ascending and multidose clinical trial of lirentelimab in patients with ISM. Eligible adults had World Health Organization-confirmed ISM and an unsatisfactory response to available treatment. In part A, patients received a single dose of lirentelimab 0.0003, 0.001, 0.003, 0.01 or 0.03 mg kg-1; in part B, patients received one lirentelimab dose of 0.3 mg kg-1 or 1.0 mg kg-1; and in part C, patients received either 1.0 mg kg-1 lirentelimab every 4 weeks for 6 months or ascending doses of lirentelimab (one dose of 1 mg kg-1 followed by five doses of 3-10 mg kg-1 every 4 weeks). The primary endpoint was safety/tolerability. Secondary endpoints included changes from baseline in Mastocytosis Symptom Questionnaire (MSQ), Mastocytosis Activity Score (MAS) and Mastocytosis Quality of Life Questionnaire (MC-QoL) scores at 2 weeks after the final dose.RESULTS:In 25 patients with ISM (13 in parts A + B and 12 in part C; median age 51 years, 76% female, median 4.6 years from diagnosis), the most common treatment-related adverse events (AEs) were feeling hot (76%) and experiencing a headache (48%). No serious AEs occurred. Median MSQ and MAS symptom severity scores in part C improved (vs. baseline) across all symptoms [MSQ: skin (38-56%), gastrointestinal (49-60%), neurological (47-59%), musculoskeletal (26-27%); MAS: skin (53-59%), gastrointestinal (72-85%), neurological (20-57%), musculoskeletal (25%)]. Median MC-QoL scores improved across all domains: symptoms (39%), social life/functioning (42%), emotions (57%) and skin (44%).CONCLUSIONS:Lirentelimab was generally well tolerated and improved symptoms and quality of life in patients with ISM. The therapeutic potential of lirentelimab should be considered for ISM.
