BRIDGEWATER, N.J., May 17, 2022
—Retrospective Cohort Study Shows Significant Reductions in All-Cause and Respiratory Disease-Related Hospitalizations in the 12 Months Following ARIKAYCE® (amikacin liposome inhalation suspension) Initiation in Real-World Settings—
—Post-Hoc Analysis of Phase 2 WILLOW Study in Adult Patients with Non-Cystic Fibrosis Bronchiectasis Supports Favorable Benefit-Risk Profile of Brensocatib—
BRIDGEWATER, N.J., May 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Insmed Incorporated (Nasdaq:INSM), a global biopharmaceutical company on a mission to transform the lives of patients with serious and rare diseases, today reported data from seven presentations across three of its pillars—ARIKAYCE, brensocatib, and treprostinil palmitil inhalation powder (TPIP)—at the American Thoracic Society (ATS) 2022 International Conference.
"We were pleased to present a broad range of data at ATS from across our portfolio of programs, demonstrating our continued progress in addressing the needs of patients living with serious and rare diseases," said Martina Flammer, M.D., M.B.A, Chief Medical Officer of Insmed. "In particular, we were excited to share the first real-world data for ARIKAYCE, which showed significant reductions in hospitalizations in the 12 months after ARIKAYCE was initiated. These findings provide important information to better understand the impact of ARIKAYCE in the treatment paradigm for refractory MAC lung disease."
Summaries of these presentations are as follows:
ARIKAYCE
Poster: "Reduction in Hospitalizations Following Initiation of Amikacin Liposome Inhalation Suspension: A Retrospective Cohort Study of Patients in Real-world Settings"
Data were presented from a noninterventional retrospective cohort study to assess changes in hospitalizations among patients initiating ARIKAYCE in the real-world setting. The study used the All-Payer Claims Database – including health insurance claims data from more than 300 million unique U.S. patients – to identify patients receiving ARIKAYCE from October 2018 to April 2020. An analysis of 331 patients who were treated with ARIKAYCE in the real-world setting showed the following key findings:
Investigators concluded that both all-cause and respiratory disease-related hospitalizations were significantly reduced in the 12 months following ARIKAYCE initiation.
Poster: "The Hospitalization Burden Among Potentially Treatment-Refractory Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Lung Disease Patients in Japan"
Investigators presented data from a retrospective cohort study that used claims data to assess treatment patterns and healthcare resource utilization among patients with potentially treatment-refractory nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) lung disease in Japan. The study showed that most patients who were identified as having potentially refractory disease had a high hospitalization burden that consistently remained high over the 30-month study period, despite treatment of ≥18 months in contrast to patients who were identified as having potentially nonrefractory disease. Investigators concluded that refractory NTM lung disease has a substantial burden on patients in Japan.
Brensocatib
Mini Symposium: "Brensocatib for the Treatment of Non-Cystic Fibrosis Bronchiectasis (NCFBE): Number Needed to Treat (NNT) and Number Needed to Harm (NNH)"
Findings were presented from post-hoc analyses of clinical trial data to assess the NNT and NNH for brensocatib to provide further context for its risk-benefit profile. The analyses used data from the WILLOW study, a phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study that assessed the efficacy, safety and tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of brensocatib in patients with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis (NCFBE). As previously reported, the WILLOW study showed that brensocatib significantly prolonged time to first pulmonary exacerbation, the primary endpoint, over the 24-week treatment period versus placebo. Treatment with brensocatib also reduced the rate of pulmonary exacerbations, a key secondary endpoint.
The post-hoc analyses showed the following:
Investigators concluded that the low NNT and negative NNH suggest a potential favorable benefit-risk profile for brensocatib in patients with NCFBE.
Poster: "Pulmonary Exacerbations (PEx) and Hospitalizations in Commercially Insured Patients with Non-Cystic Fibrosis Bronchiectasis (NCFBE) Over 1- and 2-Year Follow-Up Periods"
Data were presented from a longitudinal retrospective insurance claims database study evaluating pulmonary exacerbation frequency and all-cause hospitalization frequency in patients with NCFBE over 1 and 2 years of follow-up. The study showed that most insured patients with NCFBE experience frequent exacerbations and increased hospitalization rates over 2 years of follow-up, and that the number of both exacerbations and hospitalizations increased from year 1 to year 2. Specifically, 67.4% of patients experienced at least one exacerbation during year 1 and 76.6% experienced at least one exacerbation in year 2 of follow-up. In addition, 41.04% of patients were hospitalized at least once during year 1, and 51.05% were hospitalized at least once during year 2. Notably, an occurrence of 2 or more exacerbations increased the likelihood of multiple subsequent exacerbations within 1 and 2 years of follow-up. Investigators concluded that in patients with NCFBE, pulmonary exacerbations result in an increased disease burden over time.
TPIP
Posters: "Treprostinil Exerts Anti-Fibrotic Effects via the Prostanoid Receptor Subtype EP2 in Human Lung Fibroblast"; "Administration of Treprostinil to the Basolateral Surface, but Not the Apical Surface of Human Bronchial Air-Liquid Interface Epithelial Cells Induces Release of Prostaglandin E2"; and "Binding Affinity of Treprostinil to Rat Recombinant Prostanoid Receptors IP and EP2"
Three treprostinil posters were presented at ATS showcasing preclinical data. The first showed that treprostinil exerts an anti-fibrotic effect by acting via prostanoid receptor subtype EP2. The anti-fibrotic effects of treprostinil may also be enhanced by its ability to inhibit profibrotic cytokine secretion. The second study showed that treprostinil does not alter the integrity of the bronchial epithelium or induce an inflammatory response, and that prostaglandin E2 release is caused by administering treprostinil on the basolateral but not the apical surface, suggesting a polarized distribution of the prostanoid receptors on the bronchial epithelium. Therefore, the scale and duration of treprostinil-induced vasodilation may be controlled by regulating the epithelial penetration of inhaled treprostinil. Lastly, the third study showed that the binding affinity of treprostinil to the rat prostanoid receptors was similar for the prostaglandin I2 (IP) receptor compared with that in humans and about 7-fold higher for the EP2 receptor compared with that in humans. Researchers concluded that these data may be useful in interpreting results from rat studies of treprostinil palmitil to inform dosage selection for studies in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).
About ARIKAYCE®
ARIKAYCE is approved in the United States as ARIKAYCE® (amikacin liposome inhalation suspension), in Europe as ARIKAYCE® Liposomal 590 mg Nebuliser Dispersion, and in Japan as ARIKAYCE® inhalation 590 mg (amikacin sulfate inhalation drug product). Current international treatment guidelines recommend the use of ARIKAYCE for appropriate patients. ARIKAYCE is a novel, inhaled, once-daily formulation of amikacin, an established antibiotic that was historically administered intravenously and associated with severe toxicity to hearing, balance, and kidney function. Insmed's proprietary PULMOVANCE® liposomal technology enables the delivery of amikacin directly to the lungs, where liposomal amikacin is taken up by lung macrophages where the infection resides, while limiting systemic exposure. ARIKAYCE is administered once daily using the Lamira® Nebulizer System manufactured by PARI Pharma GmbH (PARI).
About PARI Pharma and the Lamira® Nebulizer System
ARIKAYCE is delivered by a novel inhalation device, the Lamira® Nebulizer System, developed by PARI. Lamira® is a quiet, portable nebulizer that enables efficient aerosolization of ARIKAYCE via a vibrating, perforated membrane. Based on PARI's 100-year history working with aerosols, PARI is dedicated to advancing inhalation therapies by developing innovative delivery platforms to improve patient care.
About Brensocatib
Brensocatib is a small molecule, oral, reversible inhibitor of dipeptidyl peptidase 1 (DPP1) being developed by Insmed for the treatment of patients with bronchiectasis and other neutrophil-mediated diseases. DPP1 is an enzyme responsible for activating neutrophil serine proteases (NSPs), such as neutrophil elastase, in neutrophils when they are formed in the bone marrow. Neutrophils are the most common type of white blood cell and play an essential role in pathogen destruction and inflammatory mediation. In chronic inflammatory lung diseases, neutrophils accumulate in the airways and result in excessive active NSPs that cause lung destruction and inflammation. Brensocatib may decrease the damaging effects of inflammatory diseases such as bronchiectasis by inhibiting DPP1 and its activation of NSPs. Brensocatib is an investigational drug product that has not been approved for any indication in any jurisdiction.
About TPIP
Treprostinil palmitil inhalation powder (TPIP) is a dry powder formulation of treprostinil palmitil, a treprostinil prodrug consisting of treprostinil linked by an ester bond to a 16-carbon chain. Developed entirely in Insmed's laboratories, TPIP is a potentially differentiated prostanoid being evaluated for the treatment of patients with PAH, pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD), and other rare and serious pulmonary disorders. TPIP is administered in a capsule-based inhalation device. TPIP is an investigational drug product that has not been approved for any indication in any jurisdiction.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION FOR ARIKAYCE IN THE U.S.
WARNING: RISK OF INCREASED RESPIRATORY ADVERSE REACTIONS |
|
Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis has been reported with the use of ARIKAYCE in the clinical trials. Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (reported as allergic alveolitis, pneumonitis, interstitial lung disease, allergic reaction to ARIKAYCE) was reported at a higher frequency in patients treated with ARIKAYCE plus background regimen (3.1%) compared to patients treated with a background regimen alone (0%). Most patients with hypersensitivity pneumonitis discontinued treatment with ARIKAYCE and received treatment with corticosteroids. If hypersensitivity pneumonitis occurs, discontinue ARIKAYCE and manage patients as medically appropriate.
Hemoptysis has been reported with the use of ARIKAYCE in the clinical trials. Hemoptysis was reported at a higher frequency in patients treated with ARIKAYCE plus background regimen (17.9%) compared to patients treated with a background regimen alone (12.5%). If hemoptysis occurs, manage patients as medically appropriate.
Bronchospasm has been reported with the use of ARIKAYCE in the clinical trials. Bronchospasm (reported as asthma, bronchial hyperreactivity, bronchospasm, dyspnea, dyspnea exertional, prolonged expiration, throat tightness, wheezing) was reported at a higher frequency in patients treated with ARIKAYCE plus background regimen (28.7%) compared to patients treated with a background regimen alone (10.7%). If bronchospasm occurs during the use of ARIKAYCE, treat patients as medically appropriate.
Exacerbations of underlying pulmonary disease has been reported with the use of ARIKAYCE in the clinical trials. Exacerbations of underlying pulmonary disease (reported as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), infective exacerbation of COPD, infective exacerbation of bronchiectasis) have been reported at a higher frequency in patients treated with ARIKAYCE plus background regimen (14.8%) compared to patients treated with background regimen alone (9.8%). If exacerbations of underlying pulmonary disease occur during the use of ARIKAYCE, treat patients as medically appropriate.
Anaphylaxis and Hypersensitivity Reactions: Serious and potentially life-threatening hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, have been reported in patients taking ARIKAYCE. Signs and symptoms include acute onset of skin and mucosal tissue hypersensitivity reactions (hives, itching, flushing, swollen lips/tongue/uvula), respiratory difficulty (shortness of breath, wheezing, stridor, cough), gastrointestinal symptoms (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, crampy abdominal pain), and cardiovascular signs and symptoms of anaphylaxis (tachycardia, low blood pressure, syncope, incontinence, dizziness). Before therapy with ARIKAYCE is instituted, evaluate for previous hypersensitivity reactions to aminoglycosides. If anaphylaxis or a hypersensitivity reaction occurs, discontinue ARIKAYCE and institute appropriate supportive measures.
Ototoxicity has been reported with the use of ARIKAYCE in the clinical trials. Ototoxicity (including deafness, dizziness, presyncope, tinnitus, and vertigo) were reported with a higher frequency in patients treated with ARIKAYCE plus background regimen (17%) compared to patients treated with background regimen alone (9.8%). This was primarily driven by tinnitus (7.6% in ARIKAYCE plus background regimen vs 0.9% in the background regimen alone arm) and dizziness (6.3% in ARIKAYCE plus background regimen vs 2.7% in the background regimen alone arm). Closely monitor patients with known or suspected auditory or vestibular dysfunction during treatment with ARIKAYCE. If ototoxicity occurs, manage patients as medically appropriate, including potentially discontinuing ARIKAYCE.
Nephrotoxicity was observed during the clinical trials of ARIKAYCE in patients with MAC lung disease but not at a higher frequency than background regimen alone. Nephrotoxicity has been associated with the aminoglycosides. Close monitoring of patients with known or suspected renal dysfunction may be needed when prescribing ARIKAYCE.
Neuromuscular Blockade: Patients with neuromuscular disorders were not enrolled in ARIKAYCE clinical trials. Patients with known or suspected neuromuscular disorders, such as myasthenia gravis, should be closely monitored since aminoglycosides may aggravate muscle weakness by blocking the release of acetylcholine at neuromuscular junctions.
Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: Aminoglycosides can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. Aminoglycosides, including ARIKAYCE, may be associated with total, irreversible, bilateral congenital deafness in pediatric patients exposed in utero. Patients who use ARIKAYCE during pregnancy, or become pregnant while taking ARIKAYCE should be apprised of the potential hazard to the fetus.
Contraindications: ARIKAYCE is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to any aminoglycoside.
Most Common Adverse Reactions: The most common adverse reactions in Trial 1 at an incidence ≥5% for patients using ARIKAYCE plus background regimen compared to patients treated with background regimen alone were dysphonia (47% vs 1%), cough (39% vs 17%), bronchospasm (29% vs 11%), hemoptysis (18% vs 13%), ototoxicity (17% vs 10%), upper airway irritation (17% vs 2%), musculoskeletal pain (17% vs 8%), fatigue and asthenia (16% vs 10%), exacerbation of underlying pulmonary disease (15% vs 10%), diarrhea (13% vs 5%), nausea (12% vs 4%), pneumonia (10% vs 8%), headache (10% vs 5%), pyrexia (7% vs 5%), vomiting (7% vs 4%), rash (6% vs 2%), decreased weight (6% vs 1%), change in sputum (5% vs 1%), and chest discomfort (5% vs 3%).
Drug Interactions: Avoid concomitant use of ARIKAYCE with medications associated with neurotoxicity, nephrotoxicity, and ototoxicity. Some diuretics can enhance aminoglycoside toxicity by altering aminoglycoside concentrations in serum and tissue. Avoid concomitant use of ARIKAYCE with ethacrynic acid, furosemide, urea, or intravenous mannitol.
Overdosage: Adverse reactions specifically associated with overdose of ARIKAYCE have not been identified. Acute toxicity should be treated with immediate withdrawal of ARIKAYCE, and baseline tests of renal function should be undertaken. Hemodialysis may be helpful in removing amikacin from the body. In all cases of suspected overdosage, physicians should contact the Regional Poison Control Center for information about effective treatment.
U.S. INDICATION
LIMITED POPULATION: ARIKAYCE® is indicated in adults, who have limited or no alternative treatment options, for the treatment of Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) lung disease as part of a combination antibacterial drug regimen in patients who do not achieve negative sputum cultures after a minimum of 6 consecutive months of a multidrug background regimen therapy. As only limited clinical safety and effectiveness data for ARIKAYCE are currently available, reserve ARIKAYCE for use in adults who have limited or no alternative treatment options. This drug is indicated for use in a limited and specific population of patients.
This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on achieving sputum culture conversion (defined as 3 consecutive negative monthly sputum cultures) by Month 6. Clinical benefit has not yet been established. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in confirmatory trials.
Limitation of Use: ARIKAYCE has only been studied in patients with refractory MAC lung disease defined as patients who did not achieve negative sputum cultures after a minimum of 6 consecutive months of a multidrug background regimen therapy. The use of ARIKAYCE is not recommended for patients with non-refractory MAC lung disease.
