BACKGROUND: Daratumumab-hyaluronidase-fihj (Dara-SQ) is frequently used in the treatment of plasma cell disorders and is associated with improved outcomes. Dara-SQ was shown to be non-inferior to intravenous daratumumab (Dara-IV) in efficacy, safety, and associated with fewer administration-related reactions (ARRs). Despite the lower ARR risk with Dara-SQ, package labeling still recommends indefinite premedication. In this study, we investigated the safety of premedication discontinuation after one cycle of Dara-SQ. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This pre-post interventional quality improvement study included all patients aged 18 years and older diagnosed with multiple myeloma or light chain (AL) amyloidosis who received at least one dose of Dara-SQ. Patients in Arm 1 received Dara-SQ per package labeling, while patients in Arm 2 had premedication omitted (excluding dexamethasone) after cycle 1. The primary endpoint was the incidence of ARR after cycle 1. Overall ARR rate and therapy time saved were also evaluated. RESULTS: A total of 102 patients (63 in Arm 1 and 39 in Arm 2) were included. There were zero reactions in either arm after cycle 1 across 1479 Dara-SQ doses administered over a 30-month period with or without premedication omission. The overall ARR rate was 2.9% (3/102), which all occurred prior to premedication omission. Therapy timed saved from premedication omission was 194 hours in a 6-month period, equating to approximately $140 000 USD. CONCLUSION: ARRs to Dara-SQ were rare, mild, and occurred during cycle 1 prior to premedication omission. Omission of noncorticosteroid premedication is safe, feasible, and carries substantial time and cost savings for patients and infusion centers.
背景:达雷妥尤单抗-透明质酸酶-fihj(Dara-SQ)常用于治疗浆细胞疾病,并可改善预后。Dara-SQ 在疗效、安全性方面不劣于静脉注射达雷妥尤单抗(Dara-IV),且与较少的治疗相关不良反应(ARR)相关。尽管 Dara-SQ 的 ARR 风险较低,但包装标签仍建议无限期进行预处理。在这项研究中,我们研究了 Dara-SQ 一个周期后停止预处理的安全性。
材料和方法:这项前后干预性质量改进研究纳入了所有年龄在 18 岁及以上、接受至少一剂 Dara-SQ 治疗的多发性骨髓瘤或轻链(AL)淀粉样变性患者。Arm1 组患者按包装标签接受 Dara-SQ,而 Arm2 组患者在第 1 周期后省略预处理(不包括地塞米松)。主要终点是第 1 周期后的 ARR 发生率。还评估了总 ARR 率和节省的治疗时间。
结果:共纳入 102 例患者(Arm1 组 63 例,Arm2 组 39 例)。在 30 个月的时间里,1479 剂 Dara-SQ 给药期间,无论是否省略预处理,Arm1 和 Arm2 两组在第 1 周期后均无反应。总 ARR 率为 2.9%(102 例中有 3 例),且均发生在省略预处理之前。在 6 个月内,省略预处理可节省 194 小时的治疗时间,相当于约 140000 美元。
结论:Dara-SQ 的 ARR 罕见、轻微,且发生在省略预处理之前的第 1 周期内。省略非皮质类固醇预处理是安全、可行的,可为患者和输注中心节省大量时间和成本。
