BACKGROUND: Tissue-agnostic drug development provides a paradigm shift in precision medicine and requires innovative trial designs. However, outcome selection for such trials can prove challenging. The objectives of this review were to: (i) Identify and map core outcome sets (COS), across 11 immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs) in order to facilitate the selection of relevant outcomes across the conditions for innovative trials of tissue-agnostic drug therapies. (ii) Compare outcomes or endpoints recommended by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and European Medicines Agency (EMA) to identify and highlight similarities and differences. METHODS: The Core Outcome Measures in Effectiveness Trials (COMET), International Consortium for Health Outcomes Measurement (ICHOM), FDA and EMA databases were searched from inception to 28th December 2019. Two reviewers independently screened titles and abstracts of retrieved entries and conducted the subsequent full text screening. Hand searching of the reference lists and citation searching of the selected publications was conducted. The methodological quality of the included peer-reviewed articles was independently assessed by the reviewers based on the items of the COS-Standards for Development recommendations (COS-STAD) checklist. Core outcomes from the included publications were extracted and mapped across studies and conditions. Regulatory guidance from FDA and EMA, where available for clinical trials for the IMIDs, were obtained from their databases and recommendations on outcomes to measure directly compared. RESULTS: Forty-four COS publications were included in the final analysis. Outcomes such as disease activity, pain, fatigue, quality of life, physical function, work limitation/productivity, steroid use and biomarkers were recommended across majority of the conditions. There were significant similarities and differences in FDA and EMA recommendations. The only instance where either regulatory body directly referenced a COS was for jSLE-both referenced the Paediatric Rheumatology International Trials Organization (PRINTO) COS. CONCLUSIONS: The findings from this systematic review provide valuable information to inform outcome selection in tissue-agnostic trials for IMIDs. There is a need for increased collaboration between regulators and COS developers and inclusion of regulators as key stakeholders in COS development to enhance the quality of COS.

背景:组织无关药物开发为精准医学提供了一种范式转变,需要创新的试验设计。然而,此类试验的结果选择可能具有挑战性。本研究的目的是:(i)确定和绘制 11 种免疫介导的炎症性疾病(IMID)的核心结局集(COS),以便在组织无关药物治疗的创新试验中促进对各种疾病相关结局的选择。(ii)比较美国食品和药物管理局(FDA)和欧洲药品管理局(EMA)推荐的结局或终点,以识别和强调相似点和不同点。
方法:从成立到 2019 年 12 月 28 日,检索了核心结局测量有效性试验(COMET)、国际健康结果测量联合会(ICHOM)、FDA 和 EMA 数据库。两位审查员独立筛选检索结果的标题和摘要,并进行后续的全文筛选。对手册中参考文献和选定出版物的引文搜索也进行了搜索。根据 COS-STAD 清单的项目,审查员独立评估纳入的同行评议文章的方法学质量。从纳入出版物中提取核心结果,并在研究和条件之间进行映射。从其数据库中获取了 FDA 和 EMA 针对所研究的 IMID 临床试验的监管指南,并直接比较了关于要测量的结局的建议。
结果:最终分析纳入了 44 篇 COS 出版物。在大多数情况下,疾病活动度、疼痛、疲劳、生活质量、身体功能、工作限制/生产力、类固醇使用和生物标志物等结局均被推荐。FDA 和 EMA 的建议存在显著的相似性和差异。唯一的情况下,监管机构直接参考了一个 COS,即 jSLE-均参考了儿科风湿病国际试验组织(PRINTO)COS。
结论:本系统评价的结果为组织无关的 IMID 试验的结局选择提供了有价值的信息。监管机构和 COS 开发人员之间需要加强合作,并将监管机构作为 COS 开发的主要利益相关者纳入其中,以提高 COS 的质量。
