Abstrakt: Cold agglutinin disease (CAD) is a rare, autoimmune, classical complement pathway (CP)-mediated hemolytic anemia. Sutimlimab selectively inhibits C1s of the C1 complex, preventing CP activation while leaving the alternative and lectin pathways intact. In Part A (26 weeks) of the open-label, single-arm, Phase 3 CARDINAL study in patients with CAD and a recent history of transfusion, sutimlimab demonstrated rapid effects on hemolysis and anemia. Results of the CARDINAL study Part B (2-year extension) study, described herein, demonstrated that sutimlimab sustains improvements in hemolysis, anemia, and quality of life over a median of 144 weeks of treatment. Mean last-available on-treatment values in Part B were improved from baseline for hemoglobin (12.2 g/dL on-treatment versus 8.6 g/dL at baseline), bilirubin (16.5 μmol/L on-treatment versus 52.1 μmol/L at baseline), and FACIT-Fatigue scores (40.5 on-treatment versus 32.4 at baseline). In the 9-week follow-up period after sutimlimab cessation, CP inhibition was reversed, and hemolytic markers and fatigue scores approached pre-sutimlimab values. Overall, sutimlimab was generally well tolerated in Part B. All 22 patients experienced ≥1 treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE); 12 (54.5%) patients experienced ≥1 serious TEAE, including seven (31.8%) with ≥1 serious infection. Three patients discontinued due to a TEAE. No patients developed systemic lupus erythematosus or meningococcal infections. After cessation of sutimlimab, most patients reported adverse events consistent with recurrence of CAD. In conclusion, the CARDINAL 2-year results provide evidence of sustained sutimlimab effects for CAD management, but that disease activity reoccurs after treatment cessation. NCT03347396.
