ABSTRACT: Background
Suvratoxumab (suvra), an extended half-life (~80 days), Staphylococcus aureus (SA) alpha toxin-neutralizing IgG monoclonal antibody, is under investigation for prevention of SA pneumonia in patients on mechanical ventilation (MV). We characterized the serum PK of suvra using population pharmacokinetics (popPK) in both healthy volunteers and MV patients and quantified the proportion of patients reaching the serum target of 211 μg/mL at 30 days post-dose. Methods
The popPK analysis included 1,368 serum samples from two early phase studies (NCT02296320; EudraCT 2014-001097-34): (1) Phase 1 study in 26 healthy adults receiving single IV suvra doses ranging from 0.225g to 5g, with PK sampled up to 360 days; and (2) Phase 2 study in MV patients with PCR-conf
