Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a novel dosing regimen for ofatumumab to treat pemphigus diseases.
  • Pemphigus is a group of rare autoimmune diseases that cause blistering of the skin arid mucous membranes (mouth, nose, throat, eyes, and genitals). More specifically, pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is a chronic, debilitating, and potentially life-threatening autoimmune vesiculobullous disorder that is characterized by mucocutaneous blisters. Without treatment, such blistering eventually leads to erosions in the skin, resulting in significant morbidity and mortality.
  • PV pemphigus vulgaris
  • pemphigus There are several types of pemphigus and other similar autoimmune blistering disorders.
  • the type of disease depends on what layer in the skin the blisters form and where they are located on the body. Blisters always occur on or near the surface of the skin, which is called the epidermis. People with pemphigus vulgaris, for example, have blisters that occur within the lower layer of the epidermis, while people with pemphigus foiiaceus have blisters that form in the topmost layer.
  • the type of antibody that is attacking the skin typically defines the type of disease present.
  • Pemphigus vulgaris is the most common type of pemphigus in the United States and Europe. Soft and limp blisters appear on healthy -looking skin and mucous membranes. The sores almost alwa s start in the mouth. The blisters of pemphigus vulgaris form within the deep layer of the epidermis, and are often painful. Blistered skin becomes so fragile that it may peel off by rubbing a finger on it. The blisters normally heal without scarring, but pigmented spots (spots where skin appears darker than the surrounding skin) may remain for a number of months.
  • Pemphigus vegetans is a. form of pemphigus with thick sores in the groin and under the arms.
  • Pemphigus foliaceiis involves crusted sores or fragile blisters that often appear first on the face and scalp and later on the chest and other parts of the body. Unlike pemphigus vulgaris, blisters do not form in the mouth. The sores are superficial and often itchy, and are rarely as painful as pemphigus vulgaris blisters. There may also be loose, moist scales on the skin.
  • IgA pemphigus is a. blistering disorder in which a different type of antibody binds to the cell surface of epidermal ceils. This disease is different, from other forms of pemphigus because it involves a different type of antibody (called IgA) than other types. The disease may result in blisters similar to those seen in pemphigus foliaceiis, or it may involve many smal l bumps containing pus. This is the most, benign, or least harmful, form of pemphigus.
  • Paraneoplastic pemphigus is distinct from pemphigus, but shares some features of it. It occurs in people with certain types of cancer, including some lymphomas and leukemias. it often involves severe ulcers of the mouth and lips, cuts and scarring of the lining of the eye and eyelids, and skin blisters. Because the antibodies also target the membranes lining the airways, patients may develop life-threatening problems in the lungs. This disease is different from other types of pemphigus, and the antibodies in the blood are different. Special tests may be needed to identit paraneoplastic pemphigus.
  • Pemphigoid is also an autoimmune blistering disorder, characterized by splitting where the epidermis and the dermis (the layer below the epidermis) meet, causing deep, tense (taut or rigid) blisters that do not break easily.
  • Pemphigus causes a separation within the epidermis, and the blisters are soft, limp, and easily broken. This is because the antibodies attack cells where the epidermis and dermis (the layer below the epidermis) meet.
  • pemphigus and pemphigoid are treated with similar medications. Severe cases may require different treatment. Treatment for pemphigus in general and specifically pemphigus vulgaris involves using one or more drugs. High-dose oral corticosteroids, such as prednisone or prednisolone, are the main treatment for pemphigus. High doses are often required to bring pemphigus under control. To minimize the side effects, corticosteroid levels are reduced slowly to the lowest level required to prevent new blisters or sores from appearing. Many patients will go into complete remission with treatment, although this may take a number of years. Other patients will need to continue to take small doses of medication to keep the disease under control.
  • corticosteroids such as prednisone or prednisolone
  • Prednisone is usually taken by mouth, but can also be injected into a vein, muscle, or directly into a blister.
  • the route administered depends on the type and severity of disease. For pemphigoid, a corticosteroid cream will typically be used directly on the blisters.
  • immunosuppressive drugs are often added to a patient's treatment. These are drugs that stop or slow down the immune system's response to what it sees as an attack on the body. They include, but are not limited to the immunosuppresants: Mycophenolate (mofetil and sodium salts),
  • Azathioprine Cyclophosphamide, Methotrexate, and Cyclosporine.
  • Other drugs that may be used include, but are not limited to Diamino diphenyi sulfone (Dapsone), and other antibiotics such as tetracycline, and intravenous immunoglobulin.
  • immunosuppressive drugs to treat pemphigus can also increase the chances of developing an infection and may cause neutropenia (a decrease in the white blood cells in the blood) inflammation of the liver, nausea, vomiting, or allergic reactions.
  • People with severe pemphigus that cannot be control led with corticosteroids may undergo plasmapheresis, a treatment in which the blood containing the damaging antibodies is removed and replaced with blood that is free of antibodies.
  • plasmapheresis a treatment in which the blood containing the damaging antibodies is removed and replaced with blood that is free of antibodies.
  • Such patients can also be treated with IVIg (or IVIG), or intravenous im unoglobulin, which is given daily for 3 to 5 days, every 2 to 4 weeks for 1 to several months.
  • Plasmapheresis and IVIg are both very expensive treatments, and require large amounts of donated and specially processed blood.
  • Rituximab (Rituxan/MabTheraTM) is a chimeric monoclonal antibody (comprised of human and mouse components) that selectively depletes B cells bearing cluster of differentiation 20 (CD20 + B cells). Humanized or fully human monoclonal antibodies may have more favorable pharmacokinetics, better efficacy and lower immunogenicity than chimeric antibodies. Intravenous (IV) rituximab, has been reported to successfully treat PV in case-series reports in severe or refractory disease [Ahmed AR, et al., N Engl J Med. 2006;355: 1772- 1779; Cianchini et al., Arch Dermatol.
  • Ofatumumab is a fully human anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody. More specifically, ofatumumab is a novel human IgGlk lytic monoclonal antibody that specifically binds to the human CD20 antigen, which is expressed only in B lymphocytes from the pre-B-cell stage to the plasmacytoid immunoblast stage. This antibody has previously been studied by GlaxoSmithKline/Genmab in a placebo-controlled trial using an intravenous (IV) formulation (GEN414). It is approved as Arzerra®, as an intravenous injection, for the treatment of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) refractory to fludarabine and alemtuzumab.

  • a "dose depleting" or “dose suppressing amount” of ofatumumab is that which is expected to suppress B-cells to below the limit of quantification (LLQ). While it is possible to have “depletion to 0 cells/ul” occurring, a surrogate endpoint, such as suppression to 32 cells/ul is within the range of clinical effect. Thus a “dose suppressing" amount is a clinical effect of 32cells/ul and a “depleting” or “fully depleting dose” would be to the limit of quantification, such as -5-7 cells/ul.

Achieving adequate B cell depletion is believed to be essential for maintenance of efficacy in pemphigus treatment although no threshold for B cell depletion has been demonstrated. It is believed that dividing the dose of drug to administer 20mg every 4 weeks, rather than 60mg every 12 weeks will achieve this goal. By administration of the higher loading dose and the subsequent additional higher dosage at week 4 a more rapid depletion of B-cells is believed to occur. It is expected to maintain a desired level of suppression during the inter-dosing intervals and which can be achieved with a non-loading dose of ofatumumab, such as 20mg, administrated approximately every 4 weeks.
