抗癌新药Lartruvo(olaratumab)注射溶液—40年来首个获欧美批准治疗软组织肉瘤新药
2016年11月13日,欧盟委员会(EC)速批准抗癌新药Lartruvo(olaratumab 注射液,10mg/mL)联合阿霉素(doxorubicin)用于组织学亚型为适合含蒽环类方案并且不适合采用放疗或手术根治的软组织肉瘤(STS)成人患者。
此次批准,使Lartruvo+阿霉素方案成为过去40年以来欧盟批准用于软组织肉瘤(STS)的首个一线疗法,标志着晚期STS在临床治疗迈出的重要一步。在临床试验中,与阿霉素单药治疗相比,Lartruvo联合阿霉素使STS总生存期提高11.8个月之多。
软组织肉瘤(STS)是对发生于全身软组织(脂肪、肌肉、神经、纤维组织、血管)的一大类恶性肿瘤的统称,非常复杂并具有多种亚型,使得难以诊断和治疗。近几十年来,能够延长晚期STS总生存期(OS)的一线治疗方面始终无进展。根据美国癌症研究协会,在2015年,仅在美国确诊1.2万STS新病例,约5000例死亡病例。因此,该领域存在着远未满足的巨大医疗需求。
Lartruvo是一种人血小板衍生生长因子受体α(platelet-derived growth factor recepter α,PDGFRα)拮抗剂,该药是FDA批准治疗STS的首个单克隆抗体药物。之前,FDA已授予该药快车道地位、孤儿药地位、突破性药物资格、优先审查资格。在欧盟方面,上月中旬olaratumab获得了欧洲药品管理局(EMA)人用医药产品委员会(CHMP)支持批准的积极意见,这也意味着olaratumab极有可能在今年年底获批在欧洲上市。
Lartruvo的获批,是基于一项关键性II期JGDG研究的数据。该研究是一项开放标签、随机研究,在133例组织学亚型为适合含蒽环类方案并且不适合采用放疗或手术根治的软组织肉瘤(STS)成人患者中开展,将Lartruvo+阿霉素化疗联合疗法与阿霉素化疗单药疗法进行了对比。数据显示,与阿霉素单药治疗组相比,Lartruvo+阿霉素联合治疗组中位总生存期提高11.8个月,数据具有统计学显著差异(中位OS:26.5个月 vs 14.7个月,p<0.05)。此外,Lartruvo+阿霉素联合治疗组中位无进展生存期也显著提高4.4个月(中位PFS:8.2个月 vs 4.4个月)。在数据分析时,Lartruvo+阿霉素联合治疗组总缓解率(ORR)为18.2%、死亡39例(59%),阿霉素单药治疗组ORR为7.5%、死亡52例(78%)。
olaratumab是一种人IgG1单克隆抗体,旨在扰乱肿瘤细胞和肿瘤微环境中的细胞上的PDGFRα信号通路。该药通过直接靶向肿瘤细胞以及围绕在肿瘤周围支持肿瘤生长的细胞,发挥抗肿瘤活性。

4. Clinical particulars
4.1 Therapeutic indications
Lartruvo is indicated in combination with doxorubicin for the treatment of adult patients with advanced soft tissue sarcoma who are not amenable to curative treatment with surgery or radiotherapy and who have not been previously treated with doxorubicin (see section 5.1).
4.2 Posology and method of administration
Olaratumab therapy must be initiated and supervised by physicians experienced in oncology. Patients should be monitored during the infusion for signs and symptoms of infusion-related reactions (IRRs) in a setting with available resuscitation equipment (see section 4.4).
Posology
The recommended dose of olaratumab is 15 mg/kg administered by intravenous infusion on days 1 and 8 of each 3 week cycle until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Lartruvo is administered in combination with doxorubicin for up to 8 cycles of treatment, followed by Lartruvo monotherapy in patients whose disease has not progressed. Doxorubicin is given on day 1 of each cycle following the Lartruvo infusion.
Premedication
Premedication with an H1 antagonist (e.g., diphenhydramine) and dexamethasone (or equivalent medicinal products) should be given, intravenously, 30–60 minutes prior to the olaratumab doses on days 1 and 8 of cycle 1 in all patients. For subsequent cycles, premedication with an H1 antagonist (e.g., diphenhydramine) should be given intravenously 30–60 minutes prior to each dose of olaratumab.
For patients who experience Grade 1 or 2 IRR, the infusion should be interrupted and paracetamol, H1 antagonist and dexamethasone (or equivalent medicinal products) administered as needed. For all subsequent infusions, premedication with the following (or equivalent medicinal products) diphenhydramine hydrochloride (intravenously), paracetamol, and dexamethasone, should be given.
In the event that intravenous administration of an H1 antagonist is not possible, equivalent alternative premedication should be given (e.g. oral diphenhydramine hydrochloride at least 90 minutes prior to the infusion).
Posology adjustments for olaratumab
For dose adjustment recommendations related to doxorubicin, refer to the current doxorubicin prescribing information.
Infusion-related reactions (IRRs)
Recommendations for the management of olaratumab IRRs are provided in table 1.
Table 1 – Management recommendations for infusion-related reactions (IRRs)

Toxicity gradea

Management recommendations

(any occurrence)

Grade 1-2

• Stop the infusion

• Paracetamol, H1 antagonist and dexamethasone should be administered as needed (see premedication section)

• Once the reaction has resolved, resume infusion at a 50 % decreased infusion rate.b

• Monitor patient for worsening of condition.

• For subsequent infusions, please see premedication section.

Grade 3-4

• Immediately and permanently discontinue treatment with olaratumab (see section 4.4).

a Grade per National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE), Version 4.03
b Once the infusion rate has been reduced for a Grade 1 or 2 infusion-related reaction, it is recommended that the lower infusion rate be utilized for all subsequent infusions. The infusion duration should not exceed 2 hours.
Other non-haematology toxicities
For serious Grade ≥ 3 non-haematologic toxicity deemed related to olaratumab, the dose of olaratumab should be withheld until toxicity is ≤ Grade 1 or has returned to pretreatment baseline. For subsequent infusions, the dose should be reduced to 12 mg/kg for serious Grade 3 toxicities and to 10 mg/kg for Grade 4 toxicities. If a Grade 3 toxicity recurs despite the dose reduction, the dose should be reduced further to 10 mg/kg. In case of recurrence of a Grade 4 toxicity, treatment with olaratumab should be permanently discontinued.
Neutropenia
If neutropenic fever/infection or Grade 4 neutropenia lasting longer than 1 week occurs, administration of olaratumab should be temporarily discontinued until the absolute neutrophil count is 1,000 / µL or higher and then the dose of olaratumab should be resumed at the reduced dose of 12 mg/kg. If neutropenic fever/infection or Grade 4 neutropenia lasting longer than 1 week recurs despite dose reduction, the dose should be reduced further to 10 mg/kg.
Special populations
Elderly (> 65 years)
Data on very elderly patients (> 75 years) are very limited (see sections 4.8 and 5.1).
No dose reductions other than those recommended for the general patient population are necessary.
Renal impairment
There have been no formal studies with olaratumab in patients with renal impairment. PopPK data suggest that no dose adjustments are required in patients with mild or moderate renal impairment. There are no data regarding olaratumab administration in patients with severe renal impairment (calculated creatinine clearance < 30 mL/min) (see section 5.2).
Hepatic impairment
There have been no formal studies with olaratumab in patients with hepatic impairment. PopPK data suggest that no dose adjustments are required in patients with mild hepatic impairment. There are very limited data regarding olaratumab administration in patients with moderate hepatic impairment. There are no data in patients with severe hepatic impairment (see section 5.2).
Paediatric population
The safety and efficacy of olaratumab in children aged 0 to 18 years of age have not yet been established. No data are available.
Method of administration
After dilution in sodium chloride 9 mg/mL (0.9 %) solution for injection, olaratumab is administered as an intravenous infusion over approximately 60 minutes. In order to accommodate larger infusion volumes that may be needed for patients requiring higher doses, the duration of infusion should be increased such that the maximum infusion rate of 25 mg/minute is not exceeded.
For instructions on dilution of the medicinal product before administration, see section 6.6.
4.3 Contraindications
Hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients listed in section 6.1.
4.4 Special warnings and precautions for use
Infusion-related reactions
Infusion-related reactions (IRRs), including anaphylactic reactions, were reported in clinical trials with olaratumab. The majority of these reactions occurred during or following the first olaratumab infusion. Symptoms of IRRs included flushing, shortness of breath, bronchospasm, or fever/chills, and in some cases manifested as severe hypotension, anaphylactic shock, or fatal cardiac arrest. Severe IRRs such as anaphylactic reactions can occur despite the use of premedication. Patients should be monitored during the infusion for signs and symptoms of IRRs in a setting with available resuscitation equipment. For management and dose adjustments in patients who experience Grade 1 or 2 IRR during the infusion, see section 4.2. In patients who have experienced a previous Grade 1 or 2 IRR, premedication with diphenhydramine hydrochloride (intravenously), paracetamol, and dexamethasone is recommended. Olaratumab should be immediately and permanently discontinued in patients who experience Grade 3 or 4 IRR (see sections 4.2 and 4.8).
Neutropenia
Patients receiving olaratumab and doxorubicin are at risk of neutropenia (see section 4.8). Neutrophil count should be checked prior to Olaratumab dosing on Day 1 and Day 8 of each cycle. Neutrophil count should be monitored during the treatment with olaratumab and doxorubicin and supportive care should be administered such as antibiotics or G-CSF as per local guidelines. For dosage adjustments related to neutropenia, refer to section 4.2.
Haemorrhagic events
Patients receiving olaratumab and doxorubicin are at risk of haemorrhagic events (see section 4.8). Platelet counts should be checked prior to olaratumab dosing on Day 1 and Day 8 of each cycle. Coagulation parameters should be monitored in patients with conditions predisposing to bleeding, such as anticoagulant use. In a study of olaratumab in combination with liposomal doxorubicin, there was one case of fatal intracranial haemorrhage in a patient who had experienced a fall while on treatment.
Anthracycline pre-treated patients
The risk of cardiac toxicity rises with increasing cumulative doses of anthracyclines, including doxorubicin. There are no data for the combination of olaratumab and doxorubicin in anthracycline pre-treated patients, including pre-treatment with doxorubicin (see section 4.1).
Sodium restricted diet
This medicinal product contains 22 mg sodium per each 19 mL vial and 57 mg sodium per each 50 mL vial. To be taken into consideration by patients on a controlled sodium diet.
Cardiac toxicity
Doxorubicin can cause cardiotoxicity. The risk of toxicity rises with increasing cumulative doses and is higher in individuals with a history of cardiomyopathy, mediastinal irradiation or pre-existing cardiac disease. To minimise doxorubicin-related cardiotoxicity, the use of appropriate cardio-protective measures (LVEF measurement, such as ECHO or MUGA scan, ECG monitoring, and/or use of cardioprotective agents) should be considered and planned in all patients before the start and throughout the treatment.
Please refer to doxorubicin SmPC for recommendation on cardiac monitoring.
In the phase 2 trial, patients in both treatment groups that received 5 or more cycles of doxorubicin received dexrazoxane prior to each dose of doxorubicin from cycle 5 onwards to minimize the risk of doxorubicin-related cardiotoxicity (see sections 4.8 and 5.1).
Hepatic impairment
As doxorubicin is rapidly metabolised and predominantly eliminated by the biliary system, the toxicity of doxorubicin is enhanced in patients with hepatic impairment. Refer to doxorubicin SmPC for appropriate monitoring of hepatic function and doxorubicin dose adjustments in patients with impaired liver function.
4.5 Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction
Olaratumab is a human monoclonal antibody. In a dedicated DDI study, no pharmacokinetic interactions were observed in patients between olaratumab and doxorubicin.
No other formal DDI studies with olaratumab and medicinal products commonly used in cancer patients, including those with STS (e.g. antiemetics, analgesics, anti-diarrheal drugs, oral contraceptives, etc.), have been performed.
As monoclonal antibodies are not metabolised by cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes or other drug metabolising enzymes, inhibition or induction of these enzymes by co-administered medicinal products is not anticipated to affect the pharmacokinetics of olaratumab. Conversely, olaratumab is not anticipated to affect the pharmacokinetics of co-administered medicinal products.
Administration of live or live-attenuated vaccines in patients immunocompromised by chemotherapeutic agents including doxorubicin may result in serious or fatal infections. Vaccination with a live vaccine should be avoided in patients receiving olaratumab in combination with doxorubicin.
4.6 Fertility, pregnancy and lactation
Women of childbearing potential/contraception in females
Women of childbearing potential should be advised to avoid becoming pregnant while on olaratumab and should be informed of the potential hazard to the pregnancy and foetus. Women of childbearing potential should be advised to use effective contraception during treatment and for at least 3 months following the last dose of olaratumab.
Pregnancy
There are no or limited amount of data from the use of olaratumab in pregnant women. Reproductive and development toxicity study conducted with an anti-murine PDGFRα antibody in mice showed foetal malformations and skeletal alterations (see section 5.3).
Based on its mechanism of action (see section 5.1), olaratumab has the potential to cause foetal harm. Olaratumab is not recommended during pregnancy and in women of childbearing potential not using contraception, unless the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the foetus.
Breast-feeding
It is not known whether olaratumab is excreted in human milk. Human IgG is excreted in human milk, therefore breast-feeding is not recommended during treatment with olaratumab and for at least 3 months following the last dose.
Fertility
There are no data on the effect of olaratumab on human fertility.
4.7 Effects on ability to drive and use machines
Olaratumab may have minor influence on the ability to drive and use machines. Due to frequent occurrence of fatigue, patients should be advised to use caution when driving or operating machinery.
4.8 Undesirable effects

Description of selected ADRs
Infusion-related reactions (IRRs)
IRRs were reported in 12.5 % of patients and mainly present as chills, fever or dyspnoea. Severe IRRs, also including a fatal case (see section 4.4) were reported in 3.1 % of patients and mainly presented with shortness of breath, loss of consciousness and hypotension. All severe IRRs occurred during or immediately after the first administration of olaratumab.
Neutropenia
In the phase 2 trial, the incidence of neutropenia was 59.4 % (all Grades) and 54.7 % (Grade 3) in the olaratumab plus doxorubicin arm and 38.5 % (all Grades) and 33.8 % (Grade 3) in the doxorubicin alone arm. The rate of febrile neutropenia was 12.5 % in the olaratumab plus doxorubicin arm and 13.8 % in the doxorubicin alone arm. For dose adjustments, refer to section 4.2
Musculoskeletal pain
In the phase 2 trial the incidence of Musculoskeletal pain was 64.1 % (all Grades) and 7.8 % (Grade 3) in the olaratumab plus doxorubicin arm and 24.6 % (all Grades) and 1.5 % (Grade 3) in the doxorubicin alone arm. In the majority of patients the pain was related to the patients' underlying cancer or metastases or pre-existing or concomitant conditions. The majority of these events occurred in the first 4 cycles. The pain can last from few days to up to 200 days. In some patients there was a recurrence of pain. The pain did not worsen with time or during recurrence.
Cardiac toxicity
No clinically meaningful difference in doxorubicin-related cardiotoxicity was observed between the two treatment arms of the study. The rate of cardiac arrhythmias was similar in both arms (15.6 % in the Investigational Arm and 15.4 % in the Control Arm). The rate of treatment-emergent cardiac dysfunction was comparable between the two treatment arms (7.8 % in the Investigational Arm and 6.2 % in the Control Arm).
Haemorrhagic events
In the phase 2 trial, the frequency of haemorrhagic events considered related to any study drug was 3.1 % in either treatment arm. All of these events were Grade 1/2 and were confounded by multiple factors. Three Grade ≥3 events, including one fatal, have been reported across the clinical development programme of olaratumab (see section 4.4).
Toxicity in the elderly
There was a higher incidence of Grade ≥3 adverse reactions, adverse reactions leading to discontinuation and a higher rate of haematological toxicity in the elderly population compared to the overall study population (see section 4.2). The rates of discontinuation were comparable between treatment arms across all age groups.
Reporting of suspected adverse reactions
Reporting suspected adverse reactions after authorisation of the medicinal product is important. It allows continued monitoring of the benefit/risk balance of the medicinal product. Healthcare professionals are asked to report any suspected adverse reactions via Ireland: HPRA Pharmacovigilance, Earlsfort Terrace, IRL - Dublin 2, Tel: +353 1 6764971, Fax: +353 1 6762517, website: www.hpra.ie, e-mail: medsafety@hpra.ie, United Kingdom: Yellow Card Scheme, website: www.mhra.gov.uk/yellowcard.
4.9 Overdose
There is no experience with Lartruvo overdose in human clinical trials. Lartruvo has been administered in a Phase 1 study up to 20 mg/kg on days 1 and 8 of a 21 day cycle without reaching a maximum tolerated dose. In case of overdose, use supportive therapy. There is no known antidote to Lartruvo overdose.
5. Pharmacological properties
5.1 Pharmacodynamic properties
Pharmacotherapeutic group: Antineoplastic agents, monoclonal antibodies, ATC code: L01XC27
Mechanism of action
Olaratumab is an antagonist of platelet derived growth factor receptor-α (PDGFR-α), expressed on tumour and stromal cells. Olaratumab is a targeted, recombinant, fully human immunoglobulin G subclass 1 (IgG1) monoclonal antibody that specifically binds PDGFR-α, blocking PDGF AA, -BB, and -CC binding and receptor activation. As a result, in vitro olaratumab inhibits PDGFR-α pathway signalling in tumour and stromal cells. In addition, in vivo olaratumab has been shown to disrupt the PDGFR-α pathway in tumour cells and inhibit tumour growth.
Immunogenicity
As with all therapeutic proteins, there is the potential for immunogenicity.
Overall, a low incidence of both treatment emergent anti-drug antibodies and neutralising antibodies were detected in clinical trial samples.
Clinical efficacy and safety
The efficacy and safety of olaratumab was assessed in a Phase 1b/2, multi-centre study in anthracycline naïve patients with histologically or cytologically confirmed, advanced soft tissue sarcoma not amenable to receive surgery or radiotherapy with curative intent. Patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GIST) or Kaposi sarcoma were not enrolled. The Phase 2 portion of the study was a randomised, open label study of olaratumab plus doxorubicin versus doxorubicin alone. A total of 133 patients were randomised, of whom 129 received at least one dose of study treatment (64 in the olaratumab plus doxorubicin arm and 65 in the doxorubicin arm). Patients were required to have histologically or cytologically confirmed, advanced soft tissue sarcoma and ECOG performance status of 0-2. Randomisation was stratified by PDGFR-α expression (positive versus negative), number of previous lines of treatment (0 versus 1 or more lines), histological tumour type (leiomyosarcoma, synovial sarcoma, and others) and ECOG performance status (0 or 1 versus 2).
Patients were randomised in a 1:1 ratio to either olaratumab (15 mg/kg) on Day 1 and Day 8 plus doxorubicin (75 mg/m²) on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle for up to 8 cycles or doxorubicin (75 mg/m2) alone on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle, also for up to 8 cycles. Olaratumab and doxorubicin were administered by intravenous infusion. During Cycles 5 to 8 on both arms, dexrazoxane (dosed at a ratio of 10:1 to the administered dose of doxorubicin) could be administered on Day 1 of each cycle at the investigator's discretion to reduce potential doxorubicin-related cardiotoxicity. All patients receiving more than 4 cycles of doxorubicin received dexrazoxane. Patients in the olaratumab plus doxorubicin arm could continue on olaratumab monotherapy until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or any other reason for treatment discontinuation occurred.
Demographics and baseline characteristics were quite similar between treatment arms in the phase 2 portion of the clinical trial. The median age was 58 years with 42 patients ≥ 65 years of age. 86.4 % of the patients were Caucasian. More than 25 different soft tissue sarcoma subtypes were represented in this trial, the most frequent being leiomyosarcoma (38.4 %), undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (18.1 %) and liposarcoma (17.3 %). Other subtypes were infrequently represented. Patients had received 0-4 previous lines of therapy for treatment of advanced disease but had not previously received treatment with anthracyclines. The number of patients receiving post-study systemic therapy was similar between arms. Ten patients in the olaratumab plus doxorubicin arm and 5 patients in the doxorubicin arm received post-study radiotherapy only. 3 patients in the olaratumab plus doxorubicin arm and 1 patient in the doxorubicin arm had post-study surgery only. 2 patients in the olaratumab plus doxorubicin arm and none in the doxorubicin arm received both post-study radiotherapy and surgery.
The median cumulative dose of doxorubicin was 487.6 mg/m2 in the olaratumab plus doxorubicin arm and 299.6 mg/m2 in the doxorubicin alone arm. The primary efficacy outcome measure was progression free survival (PFS) by investigator assessment. Key secondary efficacy outcome measures were overall survival (OS) and objective response rate (ORR) (see Table 3). The study met its primary endpoint (PFS). PFS according to a post-hoc, blinded, independent assessment was 8.2 months vs 4.4 months; HR = 0.670; p = 0.1208. A statistically significant improvement in OS was seen in the olaratumab plus doxorubicin arm in comparison to treatment with doxorubicin alone in the overall population. The main analysis was performed in the following two subgroups: Leiomyosarcoma (LMS) and non-LMS (other). Subgroups analysis of OS is shown in figure 2. Difference in objective response rate [complete response (CR) + partial response (PR)] according to investigator assessment was not statistically significant (18.2 % vs 11.9 % in patients randomised to olaratumab plus doxorubicin compared to patients randomized to doxorubicin respectively).
Efficacy results are shown in Table 3 and Figures 1 and 2.

Paediatric population
The European Medicines Agency has deferred the obligation to submit the results of studies with olaratumab in one or more subsets of the paediatric population in soft tissue sarcoma (see section 4.2 for information on paediatric use).

This medicinal product has been authorised under a so-called 'conditional approval' scheme.
This means that further evidence on this medicinal product is awaited.
The European Medicines Agency will review new information on this medicinal product at least every year and this SmPC will be updated as necessary.
5.2 Pharmacokinetic properties
Absorption
Olaratumab is administered as an intravenous infusion only.
Distribution
The population pharmacokinetic (PopPK) model-based mean (CV %) volume of distribution of olaratumab at steady state (Vss) was 7.7 L (16 %).
Elimination
The PopPK model-based mean (CV %) clearance for olaratumab was 0.56 L/day (33 %). This corresponds to a mean terminal half-life of approximately 11 days.
Special populations
Age sex, and race had no clinically meaningful effect on the PK of olaratumab based on a PopPK analysis. Clearance and volume of distribution had a positive correlation with body weight.
Renal impairment
No formal studies have been conducted to evaluate the effect of renal impairment on the PK of olaratumab. Based on a PopPK analysis, no clinically meaningful differences in the clearance of olaratumab were observed in patients with mild (calculated creatinine clearance [CLcr] 60-89 mL/min, n = 43), or moderate (CLcr 30-59 mL/min, n = 15) renal impairment compared to patients with normal renal function (CLcr ≥90 mL/min, n = 85). No data were available from patients with severe renal impairment (CLcr 15-29 mL/min).
Hepatic impairment
No formal studies have been conducted to evaluate the effect of hepatic impairment on the PK of olaratumab. Based on a PopPK analysis, no clinically meaningful differences in the clearance of olaratumab were observed in patients with mild (total bilirubin within upper limit of normal [ULN] and AST>ULN, or total bilirubin > 1.0-1.5 times ULN and any AST level, n = 16), or moderate (total bilirubin > 1.5-3.0 times ULN, n = 1) hepatic impairment compared to patients with normal hepatic function (total bilirubin and AST ≤ ULN, n = 126). No data were available from patients with severe hepatic impairment (total bilirubin > 3.0 times ULN and any AST level).
5.3 Preclinical safety data
Non-clinical data reveal no special hazard for humans based on repeat dose toxicity studies in monkeys.
No animal studies have been performed to test olaratumab for potential of carcinogenicity, genotoxicity, or fertility impairment. Administration of an anti-murine PDGFR- α surrogate antibody to pregnant mice during organogenesis at 50 and 150 mg/kg resulted in increased malformations (abnormal eyelid development) and skeletal alterations (frontal/parietal additional ossification site). The foetal effects in mice administered the surrogate antibody occurred at exposures less than the AUC exposure at the maximum recommended human dose of 15 mg/kg olaratumab.

In case of prefilled intravenous infusion container usage
Based on the calculated volume of olaratumab, the corresponding volume of sodium chloride 9 mg/mL (0.9 %) solution for injection should be removed from the prefilled 250 mL intravenous container. The calculated volume of olaratumab should be aseptically transferred to the intravenous container. The final total volume in the container should be 250 mL. The container should be gently inverted to ensure adequate mixing. DO NOT FREEZE OR SHAKE the infusion solution.
In case of empty intravenous infusion container usage
The calculated volume of olaratumab should be aseptically transferred into an empty intravenous infusion container. A sufficient quantity of sodium chloride 9 mg/mL (0.9 %) solution for injection should be added to the container to make the total volume 250 mL. The container should be gently inverted to ensure adequate mixing. DO NOT FREEZE OR SHAKE the infusion solution.
Olaratumab infusion solution should be administered via an intravenous line over 60 minutes through a separate infusion line. The line with sodium chloride 9 mg/mL (0.9 %) solution for injection should be flushed at the end of the infusion.
Any unused portion of olaratumab left in a vial should be discarded, as the product contains no antimicrobial preservatives.
Any unused medicinal product or waste material should be disposed of in accordance with local requirements.

FDA批准礼来Lartruvo联合多柔比星治疗软组织肉瘤
礼来制药于近日宣布:美国食品和药品管理局(FDA)批准Lartruvo(Olaratumab注射液,10mg/mL)联合多柔比星用于不适合根治性放射治疗或手术但适合蒽环类治疗的成人晚期软组织肉瘤(STS)组织学亚型。Lartruvo 的适应症获得加速批准是基于关键性JGDG试验的2期研究数据。而这些适应症的后续批准决定或有赖于验证性3期临床试验 ANNOUNCE 中对于临床获益的确认和判定。Lartruvo 联合多柔比星成为40年来FDA批准的首个STS一线治疗方案。目前,ANNOUNCE 临床试验已完成计划入组。
纽约纪念斯隆-凯特林癌症中心肉瘤医学肿瘤部主任、JGDG 注册试验主要研究者 William D. Tap 博士表示:“Lartruvo 的推出是软组织肉瘤治疗迈出的重要一步。对于 Lartruvo 的获批我们感到很高兴,这将为患者提供一种新的治疗选择,为他们抗击这种难治之症提供了新的希望。”
软组织肉瘤是一种有多种亚型,难以诊断和治疗的复杂疾病。几十年来,STS的一线治疗一直没有进展,其总生存时间(OS)一直未得以延长。美国癌症协会数据显示,2015年仅美国便有约12,000例STS新增病例确诊,近50,000例死亡病例,说明其医疗需求并未得到满足。
Lartruvo 是首个被批准用于治疗STS的单克隆抗体。针对这一新适应症,Lartruvo 被FDA授予了快速审批通道、孤儿药和突破性药物资格,并通过加速审批程序获批。FDA的加速审批程序旨在促进治疗严重病症及填补未满足医疗需求药物的快速获批。
“Lartruvo 的获批基于一项振奋人心的阳性临床研究数据,它代表着软组织肉瘤的治疗的进步。Lartruvo 联合多柔比星的一线用药是40年来唯一一个对比多柔比星单药能够延长晚期软组织肉瘤患者总生存时间的治疗方案。”礼来制药抗肿瘤产品事业部产品研发兼医学事务高级副总裁 Richard Gaynor 博士表示:“Lartruvo的研发也延续了我们的一贯使命,即致力于为癌症患者,包括那些罕见类型癌症患者不断探索新的治疗方法。”
“整个肉瘤患者群体都为这一创新药物获批用于治疗晚期软组织肉瘤而感到兴奋不已。”美国肉瘤基金会CEO、Bert E. Thomas IV博士表示:“我们相信 Lartruvo 的获批能够帮助这些患者活得更长久。”
Lartruvo的获批是基于JGDG的试验结果。JGDG是一项包括113例患者的开放标签、随机化、活性药物对照性研究,该研究在具有适合蒽环类治疗的组织学亚型,且不适用于根治性放疗或手术的成人晚期软组织肉瘤(STS)患者中,对比了Lartruvo联合多柔比星与多柔比星单药的治疗效果。该试验以评估总生存时间(OS)、无进展生存期(PFS)和客观应答率(ORR)为其疗效指标。
随机分入 Lartruvo-多柔比星组的患者比随机分入到多柔比星单药组的患者的OS中位值延长了11.8个月且具有统计学差异。Lartruvo-多柔比星组的OS中位值为26.5个月(95% CI: 20.9,31.7),对比多柔比星单药组为14.7个月(95% CI: 9.2, 17.1),([HR],0.52; 95% CI: 0.34, 0.79, ﹤0.05)。研究达到了方案预设的PFS终点。根据独立审查,Lartruvo-多柔比星组患者取得了8.2个月(95% CI: 5.5,9.8)的PFS中位值,对比多柔比星单药组为4.4个月(95% CI: 3.1, 7.4),([HR],0.74; 95% CI: 0.46, 1.19)。进行分析时,Lartruvo-多柔比星组的事件数为37 (56%),多柔比星单药组为34 (51%);Lartruvo-多柔比星组的死亡例数为39 (59%),多柔比星单药组为52 (78%)。根据独立审查,客观缓解率(ORR)结果显示Lartruvo-多柔比星组为18.2%(95% CI: 9.8, 29.6)(CR, 4.5%; PR, 13.6%),而多柔比星单药组为7.5%(95% CI: 2.5, 16.6)(CR, 1.5%; PR, 6%)。
Lartruvo 药物标签包含输液反应和胚胎-胎儿毒性的“警告和注意事项”。相较于多柔比星单药组,在接受Lartruvo 和多柔比星联合治疗的患者中,发生率≥20%的最常见不良反应(所有级别)有恶心(73% vs 52%)、疲劳(69% vs 69%)、肌肉骨骼疼痛(64% vs 25%)、粘膜炎(53% vs 35%)、呕吐(45% vs 19%)、腹泻(34% vs 23%)和头痛(20% vs 9%)。而相较于多柔比星单药治疗,在接受Lartruvo与多柔比星联合治疗的患者中,发生率≥20%的最常见实验室检测异常(所有级别)有淋巴细胞减少(77% vs 73%)、中性粒细胞减少(65%vs 63%),血小板减少(63%vs 44%)、高血糖症(52% vs 28%)、aPTT升高(33% vs 13%)、低钾血症(21% vs 15%),和低磷血症(21% vs 7%)。Lartruvo与多柔比星联合治疗的患者中13%出现发热性中性粒细胞减少症,而多柔比星单药治疗的患者中为12%。
8%(5/64)的患者出现了导致 Lartruvo 停用的不良反应。导致 Lartruvo 停用的最常见不良反应是输液反应(3%)。25% (16/64)的患者因不良反应而导致 Lartruvo 减量;导致减量的最常见不良反应是3/4级中性粒细胞减少(20%)。52% (33/64)的患者因不良反应导致Lartruvo延迟给药;导致延迟给药的最常见不良反应有中性粒细胞减少(33%)、血小板减少(8%)和贫血(5%)。
