Population Pharmacokinetic Modeling and Determination of Individual Exposure to Avalglucosidase Alfa in Adolescent and Adult Patients With Late-Onset Pompe Disease: Analysis of Pooled Data From Phase I to III Clinical Trials.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Pompe disease is a rare genetic disorder caused by a deficiency of a lysosomal enzyme called acid alpha-glucosidase and is classified into infantile and late-onset forms. Since 2006, an enzyme replacement therapy involving alglucosidase alfa has been available. In 2021, a new enzyme replacement therapy involving avalglucosidase alfa demonstrated improved clinical benefits. In this article, the authors describe the pharmacokinetics of avalglucosidase alfa using a population pharmacokinetic approach.

Methods

The population pharmacokinetic model was developed using a data set that included 75 patients and 2042 plasma drug concentrations determined through enzymatic activity assay from 3 studies (phases I/II and III) and involved 3 dose levels (5, 10, and 20 mg/kg). T
