    Title: Population Pharmacokinetic Modeling report for Fluticasone Furoate, Umeclidinium and Vilanterol using Pooled Data from three Phase III studies (200812, CTT116853 and CTT116855) in adults with Chronic Pulmonary Obstructive Disease (208059)

    Publication(s): None at the time of this report

    Phase of Development: III and IIIb

    Objectives:

    The primary objectives of the analyses were:

    to characterize the population PK of FF, UMEC and VI in adults with COPD following administration of FF/UMEC/VI in an ELLIPTA inhaler and following administration of FF/VI+UMEC, FF/VI, UMEC/VI.

    to identify influential covariates, among age, race, gender, weight, body mass index, smoking status, concurrent medications (cytochrome P450 inducers/inhibitors, Pgp inhibitors), lung function status in terms of reversibility post albuterol/salbutamol, percent predicted FEV1 at screening (PPFEV1) and creatinine clearance on the PK of FF, UMEC and VI in patients with COPD.

    Endpoints:

    Non-linear mixed effects model (NONMEM) generated post-hoc estimates for FF, UMEC and VI population PK parameters and associated inter-subject variability and residual error: Apparent clearance (CL/F), apparent volume of distribution (V/F), Ka

    (absorption rate constant), (model dependent) Derived PK parameters:

    Area under the curve at steady state (AUCss) and maximum observed concentration at steady state (Cmax ss).

    Methodology:

    Study CTT116853 was a phase IIIa, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel group study evaluating once daily FF/UMEC/VI (100 mcg/62.5 mcg/25 mcg) inhalation powder via a single ELLIPTA inhaler versus twice daily budesonide/formoterol (400 mcg/12 mcg). Eligible subjects were randomized 1:1 to one of the two treatments. A total of 1,810 subjects were included in the Intent-to-Treat (ITT) population. The total duration of the study was approximately 27 weeks, consisting of a 2-week run-in period, 24-week treatment period and a 1-week safety follow-up period.

    Study 200812 was a phase IIIb, 24-week, randomized, double-blind, parallel group multicenter study evaluating FF/UMEC/VI (100 mcg/62.5 mcg/25 mcg) via a single ELLIPTA plus matching placebo versus FF/VI + UMEC delivered via two ELLIPTA inhalers, all taken once daily. Eligible subjects were randomized 1:1 to one of the two treatments. A total of 1,055 subjects were included in the ITT population. The total duration of the study was approximately 27 weeks, consisting of a 2-week run-in period, 24-week treatment period and a 1-week follow-up period.

    Study CTT116855 was a phase IIIa, randomized, double-blind, 3-arm parallel group study evaluating FF/UMEC/VI (100 mcg/62.5 mcg/25 mcg) inhalation powder via a single ELLIPTA inhaler versus FF/VI (100 mcg/25 mcg) inhalation powder (RELVAR ELLIPTA or BREO ELLIPTA) and UMEC/VI (62.5 mcg/25 mcg) inhalation powder (ANORO ELLIPTA), all given once daily in the morning. Eligible subjects were randomized 2:2:1 to the FF/UMEC/VI, FF/VI or UMEC/VI treatments. This study enrolled 10,355 subjects in the ITT population. The total duration of the study was approximately 55 weeks, consisting of a 2-week run-in period, 52-week treatment period and a 1-week safety follow-up period.

    PK Sampling Scheme:

    For CTT116853, a subset of 74 subjects (64 sparse and 10 serial) treated with FF/UMEC/VI) provided PK samples for the POP PK analyses of FF, UMEC and VI.

    For Study 200812, a subset of 227 subjects provided PK samples (163 sparse and 64 serial) at Visits 4 (wk 12) and 5 (wk 24) for the POP PK analyses of FF, UMEC and VI.

    For Study CTT116855, a subset of 520 subjects provided PK samples (all sparse) at Visits 4 (wk 16) and 5 (wk 28) for the POP PK analyses of FF, UMEC and VI.

    Analysis Methods:

    FF, UMEC and VI plasma concentration – time data were used for population PK analyses using non-linear mixed effects modeling with NONMEM v7.4.

    Initially, Monte Carlo simulations using the previously reported population PK models for FF, UMEC and VI were undertaken to assess the ability of these models to describe the observed data from Studies 200812, CTT116853 and CTT116855 by overlaying the observations onto the 90% prediction intervals from the simulations.

    A model-based estimation approach was undertaken whereby the plasma data for FF, UMEC and VI from Studies 200812, CTT116853 and CTT116855 were combined. The previously reported population PK models for FF, UMEC and VI served as starting points for the structural model development. The data below the limit of quantification (BQL) were treated as censored data and all data were analyzed with the full likelihood approach (M3 method). Covariate analysis was undertaken once the base structural model had been developed.

    The adequacies of the population PK models were assessed through diagnostic plots and visual predictive checks (VPC). The post-hoc individual parameter estimates from each model for FF, UMEC and VI were utilized to estimate individual systemic exposure measures. The geometric mean and the associated 95% confidence intervals for AUCssand Cmax ss at steady state were summarized for each analyte by study, treatment, geographic ancestry or race and country/geographical region.

    Results:

    Analysis Population: A total of 821 subjects from 3 studies contributed to population PK analysis. Demographic and baseline characteristics of subjects were similar across each of the 3 population PK datasets (FF, UMEC and VI).

    Carlo simulations using the previously reported FF, UMEC and VI models from the FF/VI and UMEC/VI programs.

    The PK of FF in 200812, CTT116853 and CTT116855 was well-described by a two-compartment model with first-order absorption and first-order elimination. The only covariates found to be statistically significant were Japanese heritage and FF/VI on inhaled clearance (CL/F) but no dose adjustment was warranted based on the predicted systemic exposure.

    Conclusions:

    All FF, UMEC, VI plasma concentrations were well interspersed with historical data and FF, UMEC and VI PK were all adequately described by a two-compartment model with first-order absorption.

    For FF, Japanese heritage and FF/VI treatment were significant covariates on apparent inhaled clearance. For UMEC, weight, age and smoking status on apparent inhaled clearance and weight on apparent volume of distribution were significant covariates. For VI, weight on apparent inhaled clearance and smoking status on apparent volume of distribution were significant covariates. The majority of thesecovariates have been previously identified in historical analyses.

    Neither the increase in FF systemic exposure in subjects of Japanese heritage vs. non-Japanese heritage or in subjects receiving FF/VI vs. FF/UMEC/VI is likely to be clinically relevant as these systemic exposures remain well below the threshold for FF-induced reduction of serum cortisol.

    In a similar manner, neither the decrease in UMEC CL/F with increasing age or decreasing weight or decrease in VI CL/F with decreasing weight or the increased V2/F in COPD subjects who smoke are likely to be clinically relevant.

    Overall, population pharmacokinetic analyses (similar to historical) demonstrated that the effects of these covariates on PK were marginal and no dose adjustment was deemed necessary for FF, UMEC or VI based on these covariates.

    Steady state AUCss and Cmax ss for FF/UMEC/VI were consistent with historical data for FF/VI and UMEC/VI and there was no clinically relevant difference in FF, UMEC or VI systemic exposure when administered as FF/UMEC/VI, FF/VI+UMEC or the dual combinations FF/VI and/or UMEC/VI.

    In conclusion, population PK analysis for FF/UMEC/VI using combined data from CTT116855, 200812 and CTT116853 were consistent with those for the components when given in dual combination. The models described adequately the PK of FF, UMEC and VI in patients with COPD. No dose adjustments are warranted based on age, weight, smoking status or race.

    1. INTRODUCTION

    This report describes the population pharmacokinetic (POP PK) analysis performed for fluticasone furoate (FF compound number GW685698), umeclidinium (UMEC compound number GSK573719) and vilanterol (VI compound number GW642444) in a subset of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) recruited in studies 200812, CTT116853 and CTT116855.

    Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a progressive disease characterized by increasing obstruction to airflow and the progressive development of respiratory symptoms including chronic cough, increased sputum production, dyspnea and wheezing.

    The PK of FF, UMEC and VI have been previously characterized in COPD patients following monotherapy and when administered as dual combination FF/VI or UMEC/VI using non-linear mixed effects modelling (NONMEM). Additionally, these models adequately described the PK of FF, UMEC and VI following administration of FF/UMEC/VI in a single inhaler when data from CTT116853 was overlaid on predicted concentrations from simulated models. Although none of the drug-drug interaction studies or previous population PK analyses conducted during clinical development of mono and dual therapy treatments suggested PK interaction, the current analysis was planned to assess the effect on PK (as well as effect of covariates on PK) when the 3 drugs were administered in a single inhaler. Given the relatively small PK subsets in the phase III studies, and the sparse nature of PK sampling in these studies, a model-based population PK using non-linear mixed effects was considered the most robust approach for assessing the PK of FF, UMEC and VI in the COPD population. The results and conclusions of this analysis will be used to support and augment multiple global regulatory submissions.

    The population PK methodology and analysis following FF/UMEC/VI in these studies focused on characterizing the systemic exposure (rate and extent) of the individual analytes, FF, UMEC and VI, in a limited number of subjects with COPD. The main aim of the analysis was to characterize the PK of FF, UMEC and VI in adults with COPD. A covariate analysis was undertaken to identify potential covariates that influence the PK of FF, UMEC or VI. The individual post-hoc parameter estimates from the final PK models were used to derive the steady-state systemic exposure for each analyte. The population PK analyses were based on the approved Reporting and Analysis Plan [208059 Reporting and Analysis Plan] and relevant regulatory guidance documents [FDA, 1999; EMA, 2007].

    2. STUDY OBJECTIVES & ENDPOINTS

    3. STUDY DESIGN

    3.1. Study CTT116853

    Study CTT116853 [GlaxoSmithKline Document Number 2013N180749_04] was a phase IIIa, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel group study evaluating once daily FF/UMEC/VI (100 mcg/62.5 mcg/25 mcg) inhalation powder via a single ELLIPTA inhaler versus twice daily budesonide/formoterol (400 mcg/12 mcg). Eligible subjects were to be randomized 1:1 to one of the two treatments. A total of 1,810 subjects were included in the ITT population. The total duration of the study was approximately 27 weeks, consisting of a 2-week run-in period, 24-week treatment period and a 1-week safety follow-up period. The study schematic is displayed in Figure 1.

    A subset of 74 subjects (64 subjects with sparse sampling and 10 subjects with serialsampling) treated with FF/UMEC/VI) provided PK samples for the POP PK analyses of FF, UMEC and VI (PK population).

    3.6.2. Assay Methods

    Plasma samples were analyzed for FF, UMEC and VI using validated analytical methods based on solid phase extraction, followed by high-pressure liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometric analysis for detection. The lower limit of quantification (LLQ) for FF, UMEC and VI in plasma was 10.0 pg/mL and the higher limit of quantification (HLQ) was 1000 pg/mL for FF and VI and 2000 pg/mL for UMEC [GlaxoSmithKline Document Number 2014N190410_00, UMEC/VI; GlaxoSmithKline

    Document Number 2014N211586_00, FF; GlaxoSmithKline Document Number 2014N204417_00, Amendment 01 UMEC/VI and GlaxoSmithKline Document Number 2016N285561_00, Amendment 2 UMEC/VI].

    For each analytical method, quality control samples (QC) were prepared at 4 different analyte concentrations. These samples, stored with study samples, were analyzed with each batch of samples against separately prepared calibration standards. For the analysis to be acceptable, no more than one-third of the QC results were to deviate from the nominal concentration by more than 15%, and at least 50% of the results from each QC concentration should be within 15% of nominal. The applicable analytical runs met all predefined run acceptance criteria.

    Bioanalysis of PK samples was performed by WuXi AppTech, Shanghai, China , under the direct auspices of the Platform Technology and Sciences (PTS) Division, GSK.

    The computer systems that were used on these studies to acquire and quantify the bioanalytical data included Analyst (Versions 1.5.1) and Watson Laboratory Information Management System (Version 7.2). All bioanalytical data are stored in the Archive at WuXi AppTech, Shanghai, P.R. China under Study References 15BAS0277.

    3.6.3. Analysis Populations

    Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Population: The ITT Population was defined as all subjects who were randomized, excluding those who were randomized in error and did not receive a dose of study medication. A subject who was recorded as a screen or run-in failure and also randomized, but did not receive a dose of study treatment, was considered to be randomized in error. Any other subject who received a randomization number will be considered to have been randomized.

    PK Population: The PK population comprised of all subjects in the ITT Population from each study from whom a PK sample was obtained and analysed for FF, UMEC or VI, and has time of dosing and time of PK sample draw relative to dosing. This population was used for creation of the AXPOPPK dataset.

    FF PK Population: The FF PK population was used for FF POP PK analysis. The FF PK population comprised of all subjects in the ITT Population from each study from whom a PK sample was obtained, analysed for FF concentration and a result reported in the FF concentration-time dataset. Additionally, subjects in the FF PK analysis population had time of dosing and time of PK sample draw relative to dosing for at least one PK sample at a visit at which PK was scheduled and at which FF was analysed and information on all covariates that were included in the final dataset.

    UMEC PK Population: The UMEC PK population was used for UMEC POP PK analysis. The UMEC PK population comprised of all subjects in the ITT Population from each study from whom a PK sample was obtained, analysed for UMEC concentration and a result reported in the UMEC concentration-time dataset. Additionally, subjects in the UMEC PK analysis population had time of dosing and time of PK sample draw relative to dosing for at least one PK sample at a visit at which PK was scheduled and at which

  • CONFIDENTIAL 2017N329683_00208059, 200812

    CTT116853, CTT116855

    24

    UMEC was analysed and information on all covariates that were included in the final dataset.

    VI PK Population: The VI PK population was used for VI POP PK analysis. The VI PK population comprised of all subjects in the ITT Population from each study from whom a PK sample was obtained, analysed for VI concentration and a result reported in the VI concentration-time dataset. Additionally, subjects in the VI PK analysis population hadtime of dosing and time of PK sample draw relative to dosing for at least one PK sample at a visit at which PK was scheduled and at which VI was analysed and information on all covariates that were included in the final dataset.

    3.6.4. Changes in Conduct of the Study or Planned Analyses

    Thirty-three (33) separate concomitant medications (that were on the prohibited/excluded medicine list such as cytochrome P450 3A4 inhibitors and P-glycoprotein inhibitors) were included in the source population PK dataset across the three studies. Less than 5% of subjects had any one of the 33 concomitant medications. Therefore, the potential impact of these concomitant medications on the PK of FF, UMEC or VI was not formally explored during the covariate analysis. The R code to determine the frequency of each of the 33 concomitant medications included in the source population PK dataset is presented in Table 1.4.

    In the dataset specifications included in the RAP, all dosing records were to be assigned with the NONMEM event item (EVID) of 1. For the final analysis datasets, the first dosing record for each visit was assigned with EVID=4 to establish steady-state conditions at each visit. Subsequent dosing records at each visit were assigned EVID=1.

    The RAP proposed that the covariate analysis would be performed using a step-wise forward addition/backward elimination procedure. Given the difficulties encountered in obtaining models that converged successfully, a full covariate model approach was utilized. Potential covariates were screened using graphical exploration and were included in a full model. Covariates were removed from the full model based on the point estimate and standard errors of the estimates.

    In the historical FF/VI analysis (GlaxoSmithKline Document Number2011N122282_00), during assessment of race covariate, Japanese and other East Asian subjects (from other countries such as Korea), were evaluated together in a single combined “East Asian, Japanese and South East Asian” race category due to the small number of subjects in each individual category. In the current analysis (208059), study CTT116855 planned to recruit a minimum of 50 subjects each in Japan, China and Korea and study 200812 planned to recruit approximately 50 subjects in Japan in each treatment arm and all were invited to participate in PK sample collection. Therefore, the present analysis assessed subjects of Japanese heritage or East Asian heritage separately for their effects on FF, UMEC and VI PK. However, to allow a direct comparison with the historical FF/VI data, an additional analysis was also conducted using a single East Asian race category which included subjects nominating either East Asian ancestry or Japanese ancestry resident in any country. This secondary analysis is discussed in Section 6.10.

    4. PHARMACOKINETIC DATA ANALYSIS

    4.1. Software Information

    The population PK modeling and simulations were performed using NONMEM v7.3.0(ICON Development Solutions) under Windows 7 Professional operating system with Intel Visual FORTRAN Complier Professional, version 11.1, interfaced with PDx-Pop v5.2 (ICON Development Solutions). Stochastic Approximation Expectation Maximization (SAEM) with interaction was selected as the estimation method. Supporting applications for data handling, exploratory diagnostics and simulation included R (the R Foundation for Statistical Computing v3.1.1). Summary statistics of FF, UMEC and VI plasma concentrations by time interval and % observations below the quantification limit (BQL) in each interval were created using the SAS version supported by ICON at the time of analysis.

    4.2. Dataset Preparation

    The population PK data were provided by Veramed, a supplier of statistics and programming services for GSK. The specifications for the format of the data are provided in Section 9.1 of the population PK RAP. FF, UMEC and VI population PK data was prepared from SDTM PC datasets of each study. The data was made available to the Clinical Pharmacology, Modeling and Simulations (CPMS) group in a comma separated value (.csv) format. For this analysis, the description of geographic ancestry noted for each subject has been recorded as a “race” covariate.

    4.3. Sample Size Consideration

    No formal sample size calculations were performed for the population PK analyses for any of the 3 studies. The number of subjects on each treatment is listed in Table 3. The FF analysis dataset consisted of a total of 2948 observations from 714 subjects. The UMEC analysis dataset consisted of a total of 2589 observations from 622 subjects. The VI analysis dataset consisted of a total of 3331 observations from 817 subjects.

    Percent predicted FEV1 at baseline was missing in 18 subjects, post albuterol/salbutamol reversibility at screening was missing in 6 subjects and baseline/screening CrCL value was missing in 3 subjects. This represented between 0.4 and 2.5% of the 817 subjects included in the VI analysis dataset. Each of these covariates was included in the graphical exploration of potential covariate-parameter relationships.

    4.6.2. Missing concentrations (dependent variable)

    The lower limit of quantification (LLQ) for FF, UMEC and VI was 10 pg/mL. All analyzed samples determined to be below the LLQ were kept in the dataset and denoted as samples below quantification limit (BQL). Table 5, Table 6 and Table 7 list the percentage of samples determined to be BQL along with actual sample numbers analyzed across the PK sampling windows for FF, UMEC and VI, respectively. Samples taken outside of the sampling windows were not included in these summaries. These BQLsamples were analyzed as censored data during the population PK analysis [Ahn, 2008].

    4.6.3. Missing dosing times

    For Study CTT116855, for Subject the date/time of dose prior to first PK sample at Visit 4 was missing and therefore, Visit 4 data for this subject was excluded from the analyses.

    4.6.4. Missing PK sampling times

    There were no missing PK sampling times from any of the three studies included in the present analyses.

    4.7. PK Outliers

    For all three analytes (FF, UMEC and VI), there were unexpectedly high concentrations associated with some PK samples taken more than 20 hours after the last dose. In some

    cases, these concentrations were higher than the 0-15 min post-dose sample in the same subject.

    For FF, of the 759 PK samples taken 20 hours post-dose or later, 79% were BQL. Of the 161 quantifiable concentrations taken 20 hours post-dose, FF concentrations ranged from 10.1 to 54.7 pg/mL. These quantifiable concentrations represented 5.5% of the total number of observations in the FF dataset.

    For UMEC, of the 673 PK samples taken 20 hours post-dose or later, 33% were BQL. Of the 451 quantifiable concentrations taken 20 hours post-dose, UMEC concentrations ranged from 10.0 to 162 pg/mL. These quantifiable concentrations represented 17.4% of the total number of observations in the UMEC dataset.

    For UMEC, of the 862 PK samples taken 20 hours post-dose or later, 62% were BQL. Of the 331 quantifiable concentrations taken 20 hours post-dose, VI concentrations ranged from 10.0 to 124 pg/mL. These quantifiable concentrations represented 9.9% of the total number of observations in the VI dataset.

    A preliminary exploration of these unexpectedly high trough concentrations did not identify a common factor, such as study centre, that might explain these data. As these unexpectedly high trough concentrations represented a relatively small percentage of the overall data for each analyte, they were not expected to unduly influence the estimate of the model parameters and were, therefore, retained in the final analyses. In the previous UMEC/VI analysis, a similar phenomenon was observed in relation to a few study centers (Goyal, 2014). A sensitivity analysis (population PK) including and excludingsamples from those centers indicated < 5% difference in the estimated parameters and therefore all samples were retained in the previous UMEC/VI analysis. Using this historical evidence, a decision was made not to exclude high trough concentration samples in the current analysis.

    4.8. Modelling Procedure

    Population non-linear mixed effects modelling was performed using the approach described in the Reporting and Analysis Plan

    Nonlinear mixed effect modeling approach was used to estimate FF, UMEC and VI PK parameters based on the available data and the regulatory guidance documents [FDA, 1999; EMA, 2007].

    4.8.1. Population PK Analysis

    For each study, PK samples were collected as described in Table 2. Actual sampling times were used in the analysis. Approximately 41, 13 and 21% of concentrations in the FF, UMEC and VI PK were BQL. The R code to derive the proportion of BQL observations in each of the datasets is presented in Table 5.22. The full likelihood methods implemented in NONMEM were used to analyze such BQL data [Ahn, 2008]. The Stochastic Approximation Expectation Maximization (SAEM) with interaction was the method used in NONMEM for the FF, UMEC and VI population PK analyses. Under this method, the BQL data was considered to be censored. The F_FLAG method in

    31

    NONMEM was used to estimate the likelihood for BQL data while simultaneously fitting and estimating the model parameters using the data above LLQ.

    4.8.2. Exploratory Data Analysis

    Exploratory data analysis was performed to understand the informational content of the analysis datasets with respect to the anticipated models, to search for extreme values and/or potential outliers, to examine the correlation between covariates and to assess possible trends in the data.

    In addition, Monte Carlo simulations using the previously reported population PK models for FF, UMEC and VI were undertaken to confirm that the data from studies 200812, CTT116853 and CTT116855 were consistent with previous studies. The observed concentration versus time data were overlaid onto the 90% prediction intervals (PI) to assess the ability of these models to describe the observed data from Studies 200812, CTT116853 and CTT116855.

    4.8.3. Structural Model Development

    A model-based estimation approach was undertaken whereby the plasma concentration-time data from FF, UMEC and VI from Studies 200812, CTT116853 and CTT116855 were combined.

    The previously developed population PK base models (i.e., no covariates included) for inhaled FF, UMEC and VI [GlaxoSmithKline Document Number 2011N122282_00, GlaxoSmithKline Document Number 2012N137814_00] served as the starting point for the structural model development.

    4.8.4. FF Structural Model

    The previous population PK model for FF in subjects with COPD [GlaxoSmithKline Document Number 2011N122282_00; Siederer, 2016] was used as a starting point for this analysis. The PK of FF were well described by a two-compartment model with first-order absorption and first-order elimination. The only covariate found to be statistically significant was race on inhaled clearance (CL/F) but no dose adjustment was warranted based on the predicted systemic FF exposures. More details on the model output (Run 52; dmp6688-1.0) can be found in GlaxoSmithKline Document Number2011N122282_00.

    4.8.5. UMEC Structural Model

    The previous population PK model for UMEC in subjects with COPD [GlaxoSmithKline Document Number 2012N137814_00; Goyal, 2014] was used as a starting point for this analysis. The PK of UMEC were well described by a two-compartment model with first-order absorption and first-order elimination. Weight, age and baseline creatinine clearance (calculated by Cockcroft-Gault equation) were found to be significant covariates on CL/F and weight was also a significant covariate on the apparent volume of distribution (V/F). However, no dose adjustment was warranted for these covariatesbased on the predicted systemic UMEC exposures. More details on the model output

    4.8.6. VI Structural Model

    Two population PK models in subjects with COPD for VI were available to support the present analysis.

    The VI population PK model from the UMEC/VI program [GlaxoSmithKline Document Number 2012N137814_00; Goyal, 2014] was a two-compartment model with first-order absorption and first-order elimination. Weight and age were found to be significant covariates on CL/F. However, no dose adjustment was warranted for these covariatesbased on the predicted systemic VI exposures. More details on the model output (vipop39, dmp 10681) can be found in GlaxoSmithKline Document Number2012N137814_00.

    The VI population PK model from the FF/VI program [GlaxoSmithKline Document Number 2011N122282_00; Siederer, 2016] was a three-compartment model wi
