Eflapegrastim (RolontisThis phase I study aimed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (PK), pharmacodynamic (PD), and immunogenicity of eflapegrastim following a single subcutaneous administration to healthy Japanese and Caucasian subjects.A randomized, double-blind, placebo- and active-controlled, dose-escalation study was conducted in healthy Japanese and Caucasian subjects. Eligible subjects randomly received a single subcutaneous administration of eflapegrastim (1.1, 3.3, 10, 45, 135, and 270 μg/kg), pegfilgrastim 6 mg, or placebo in a ratio of 6:2:2 (Cohorts 1-2, Caucasian subjects only) or 12:2:2 (Cohorts 3-6, Japanese and Caucasian subjects). Safety and tolerability were assessed throughout the study. Serial blood samples were collected predose and up to day 22 postdose for PK and PD analyses. PK assessments were performed in the 45, 135, and 270 µg/kg dose groups. Antidrug antibodies to eflapegrastim were determined at baseline up to day 42 after the first dose for immunogenicity.A total of 84 subjects (42 males and 42 females) were enrolled, and 78 (31 Japanese and 47 Caucasian subjects) completed the study as planned. Japanese and Caucasian subjects showed similar PK and PD profiles. In the 45, 135, and 270 µg/kg dose groups, the maximum serum concentration (CEflapegrastim was safe and well tolerated at doses up to 270 μg/kg in healthy Japanese and Caucasian subjects. In both ethnic groups, eflapegrastim showed dose-dependent PK and the exposure to eflapegrastim was positively correlated with ANC and CD34ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT01037543 (23 December 2009). |
