BACKGROUND Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is an autoimmune disease of the central nervous system and is associated with autoantibodies to anti-aquaporin-4 (AQP4-IgG) in approximately two thirds of patients. Interleukin-6 is involved in the pathogenesis of the disorder. Satralizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting the interleukin-6 receptor. The efficacy of satralizumab added to immunosuppressant treatment in patients with NMOSD is unclear. METHODS In a phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, we randomly assigned, in a 1:1 ratio, patients with NMOSD who were seropositive or seronegative for AQP4-IgG to receive either satralizumab, at a dose of 120 mg, or placebo, administered subcutaneously at weeks 0, 2, and 4 and every 4 weeks thereafter, added to stable immunosuppressant treatment. The primary end point was the first protocol-defined relapse in a time-to-event analysis. Key secondary end points were the change from baseline to week 24 in the visual-analogue scale (VAS) pain score (range, 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating more pain) and the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue (FACIT-F) score (range, 0 to 52, with lower scores indicating more fatigue). Safety was also assessed. RESULTS A total of 83 patients were enrolled, with 41 assigned to the satralizumab group and 42 to the placebo group. The median treatment duration with satralizumab in the double-blind period was 107.4 weeks. Relapse occurred in 8 patients (20%) receiving satralizumab and in 18 (43%) receiving placebo (hazard ratio, 0.38; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.16 to 0.88). Multiple imputation for censored data resulted in hazard ratios ranging from 0.34 to 0.44 (with corresponding P values of 0.01 to 0.04). Among 55 AQP4-IgG-seropositive patients, relapse occurred in 11% of those in the satralizumab group and in 43% of those in the placebo group (hazard ratio, 0.21; 95% CI, 0.06 to 0.75); among 28 AQP4-IgG-seronegative patients, relapse occurred in 36% and 43%, respectively (hazard ratio, 0.66; 95% CI, 0.20 to 2.24). The between-group difference in the change in the mean VAS pain score was 4.08 (95% CI, -8.44 to 16.61); the between-group difference in the change in the mean FACIT-F score was -3.10 (95% CI, -8.38 to 2.18). The rates of serious adverse events and infections did not differ between groups. CONCLUSIONS Among patients with NMOSD, satralizumab added to immunosuppressant treatment led to a lower risk of relapse than placebo but did not differ from placebo in its effect on pain or fatigue.

沙特拉珠单抗治疗神经性脊髓炎性光谱障碍的临床试验。

背景技术视神经脊髓炎光谱疾病(NMOSD)是中枢神经系统的自身免疫疾病,并且在约三分之二的患者中与抗水通道蛋白4(AQP4-IgG)的自身抗体相关。白介素6参与该疾病的发病机理。Satralizumab是靶向白介素6受体的人源化单克隆抗体。目前尚不清楚在NMOSD患者的免疫抑制剂治疗中加入沙雷珠单抗的疗效。方法在一项3期,随机,双盲,安慰剂对照试验中,我们以1:1的比例随机分配了对AQP4-IgG呈血清反应阳性或血清反应阴性的NMOSD患者,以120剂量的剂量接受沙曲单抗治疗在第0、2和4周以及此后每4周皮下注射1 mg或安慰剂,以稳定的免疫抑制剂治疗。主要终点是事件发生时间分析中第一个协议定义的复发。关键的次要终点是视觉模拟量表(VAS)疼痛评分(范围从0到100,评分越高,表明疼痛越多)从基线到第24周的变化以及慢性病治疗疲劳的功能评估(FACIT- F)得分(范围从0到52,得分越低表示疲劳越多)。还评估了安全性。结果总共招募了83例患者,其中41例归于satralizumab组,而42例归于安慰剂组。在双盲期间使用沙妥珠单抗的中位治疗持续时间为107.4周。接受satralizumab治疗的8例患者(20%)和接受安慰剂的18例患者(43%)发生复发(危险比,0.38; 95%可信区间[CI],0.16至0.88)。对审查数据进行多次插补可得出危险比范围为0.34至0.44(相应的P值为0.01至0.04)。在55名AQP4-IgG血清反应阳性患者中,satralizumab组和安慰剂组的复发率分别为11%和43%(危险比为0.21; 95%CI为0.06至0.75)。在28例AQP4-IgG血清阴性患者中,复发率分别为36%和43%(危险比,0.66; 95%CI,0.20至2.24)。组间平均VAS疼痛评分变化的差异为4.08(95%CI,-8.44至16.61);组间FACIT-F平均得分变化的差异为-3.10(95%CI,-8.38至2.18)。两组之间的严重不良事件和感染发生率没有差异。结论在NMOSD患者中,免疫抑制剂治疗中加入沙雷珠单抗导致的复发风险低于安慰剂,但在疼痛或疲劳方面与安慰剂没有区别。(由Chugai Pharmaceutical资助; ClinicalTrials.gov编号,NCT02028884。)。
