This randomized, double-blind trial compared proposed biosimilar LA-EP2006 with reference pegfilgrastim in women receiving chemotherapy for breast cancer (PROTECT-1).
PATIENTS & METHODS: Women (≥18 years) were randomized to receive LA-EP2006 (n = 159) or reference (n = 157) pegfilgrastim (Neulasta(®), Amgen) for ≤6 cycles of (neo)-adjuvant TAC chemotherapy. Primary end point was duration of severe neutropenia (DSN) during cycle 1 (number of consecutive days with absolute neutrophil count <0.5 × 10(9)/l) with equivalence confirmed if 90% and 95% CIs were within a ±1 day margin.
For DSN, LA-EP2006 was equivalent to reference (difference: 0.07 days; 90% CI: -0.09-0.23; 95% CI: -0.12-0.26).
LA-EP2006 and reference pegfilgrastim showed no clinically meaningful differences regarding efficacy and safety in breast cancer patients receiving chemotherapy.
本随机双盲试验比较了拟用的生物类似药LA-EP2006与参比培非格司亭在接受乳腺癌化疗的女性中的疗效(PROTECT-1)。
年龄≥18岁的女性被随机分配接受LA-EP2006(n = 159)或参比培非格司亭(n = 157)(Neulasta(®),安进公司),用于≤6周期的(新)辅助TAC化疗。主要终点为第1周期严重中性粒细胞减少症的持续时间(DSN)(绝对中性粒细胞计数<0.5×10⁹/L的连续天数),如果90%和95%置信区间在±1天范围内,则确认具有等效性。
对于DSN,LA-EP2006与参比药物等效(差异:0.07天;90%置信区间:-0.09 - 0.23;95%置信区间:-0.12 - 0.26)。
在接受化疗的乳腺癌患者中,LA-EP2006和参比培非格司亭在疗效和安全性方面无临床意义上的差异。
