Effects of Teduglutide on Diarrhea in Pediatric Patients with Short Bowel Syndrome-Associated Intestinal Failure.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

This post-hoc analysis evaluated the effect of teduglutide treatment on diarrhea in patients with short bowel syndrome-associated intestinal failure (SBS-IF).

Methods

Data from 2 open-label, multicenter, phase 3 pediatric SBS-IF clinical trials of teduglutide (NCT01952080 and NCT02682381) were pooled where possible. The primary objective was to evaluate the change in stool consistency, frequency, and volume from baseline to weeks 12 and 24 of treatment in patients who received any teduglutide dose from both studies ("total teduglutide"). Safety assessments included gastrointestinal adverse event reporting.

Results

Overall, 101 patients were analyzed. Among the total teduglutide group (n = 87), there were significant changes from baseline to weeks 12 and 24 in mean (standard error) Bristol Stool Form Scale (BSFS) score [-1.8 (0.26; P < 0.0001) and -2.2 (0.27; P < 0.0001), respectively], parenteral nutrition and/or intravenous fluid (PN/IV) volume [-16.9 (1.7; P < 0.0001) and -20.1 (2.3; P < 0.0001) mL/kg/day, respectively], and enteral nutrition volume [9.2 (1.7; P < 0.0001) and 9.6 (2.3; P = 0.0002) mL/kg/day, respectively]. Among patients in the standard of care group (n = 14) there were numerical changes in BSFS score, and enteral nutrition volume at weeks 12 and 24; significant changes in PN/IV volume [-6.9 (1.5) mL/kg/day; P = 0.0041] were observed at 24 weeks, but not at 12 weeks.

Conclusion

In this post-hoc analysis, short-term treatment with teduglutide was associated with improved stool consistency, as well as trends towards reductions in PN/IV requirements and advancements in enteral nutrition volume in children with SBS-IF. Further research assessing the impact of patient-level factors on stool characteristics when using teduglutide is warranted.

Project description:BackgroundIn multiple clinical studies, teduglutide reduced parenteral support (PS) with a consistent safety profile in adults with short bowel syndrome-associated intestinal failure (SBS-IF). The objective of this study was to assess adverse events (AEs) from a pooled data set.MethodsSafety data from four prospective clinical trials of teduglutide in patients with SBS-IF were assimilated. AEs were evaluated in patient groups based on treatment received in each study and in populations stratified to create distinct subgroups based on aetiology, bowel anatomy and baseline PS volume requirements.ResultsSafety data are reported for up to 2.5 years, totalling 222 person-years exposure to teduglutide. In most patients, AEs were reported as mild or moderate in severity in all patient groups and occurred at comparable rates between patients who received teduglutide or placebo. Several common gastrointestinal AEs, including abdominal pain, nausea and abdominal distension, were reported more frequently earlier in the course of treatment, with their frequency declining over time. Fewer gastrointestinal AEs were reported in patients with vascular causes of SBS-IF and patients with most of their colon-in-continuity than in other patient subgroups. Across the patient stratification subgroups, the predominant treatment-emergent AEs for which patients receiving teduglutide had a significantly increased relative risk were abdominal distension and gastrointestinal stoma complication compared with patients receiving placebo.ConclusionsTeduglutide had a safety profile consistent with prior adult data and no new safety concerns were identified. The most frequently reported AEs were gastrointestinal in origin, consistent with the underlying disease condition and intestinotrophic actions of teduglutide.Clinical trial registry informationNCT00081458/EudraCT, 2004-000438-35; NCT00798967/EudraCT, 2008-006193-15; NCT00172185/EudraCT, 2004-000439-27; NCT00930644/EudraCT, 2009-011679-65.
