Meta Analysis
An Integrated Assessment of the Effects of Immunogenicity on the Pharmacokinetics, Safety, and Efficacy of Elotuzumab.
Elotuzumab is a humanized, immunostimulatory anti-signaling lymphocytic activation molecule F7 (SLAMF7) IgG1 monoclonal antibody indicated in combination with lenalidomide and dexamethasone for patients with multiple myeloma (MM) who have received 1-3 prior therapies. We assessed the immunogenicity of elotuzumab as a monotherapy and in combination with bortezomib/dexamethasone and lenalidomide/dexamethasone in patients with MM in five clinical studies, including the pivotal ELOQUENT-2 trial (NCT01239797). Anti-drug antibody (ADA) prevalence was determined using a validated bridging assay. ⋯ ADAs were associated with lower elotuzumab steady-state exposure; however, this result may have been confounded by differential myeloma protein levels. ADAs/NAbs were not associated with hypersensitivity, infusion reactions, or loss of elotuzumab efficacy. Using a novel visualization, we also demonstrate that there is no clear relationship between the occurrence and titer values of ADA/NAbs and progression-free survival and best overall response status in patients treated with elotuzumab.
