Pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic analysis of geographic atrophy lesion area in patients receiving pegcetacoplan treatment or sham.

ABSTRACT: Pegcetacoplan is a complement C3/C3b inhibitor indicated for the treatment of geographic atrophy (GA). A population pharmacokinetic (PK)/pharmacodynamic (PD) analysis of pegcetacoplan used GA lesion area measurements from three clinical studies to determine the effect of pegcetacoplan exposure on GA progression. A base disease progression model was developed using data from sham-treated eyes and untreated fellow eyes, followed by treatment effect assessment in dose-response and PK/PD models. In total, 1501 patients from FILLY (NCT02503332), OAKS (NCT03525613), and DERBY (NCT03525600) received intravitreal pegcetacoplan 15 mg monthly or every other month (EOM) or sham treatment monthly or EOM and were included in the population analysis of lesion area. Disease progression over time was adeq
