Abstract
Background: The infliximab biosimilar CT-P13 was approved in Thailand in 2015. Methods: This open-label, multicenter, post-marketing surveillance study evaluated the safety (events of special interest [ESIs]; primary end point) and effectiveness of 46 weeks of CT-P13 treatment according to routine practice in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), ankylosing spondylitis (AS), or psoriatic arthritis (PsA), with 1 year follow-up post-treatment. Results: 30 patients were enrolled (16 RA, 8 AS and 6 PsA). Infections were the most frequently reported study drug-related ESIs (2 RA and 2 AS). One patient with RA and one with PsA experienced infusion-related reactions. No cases of tuberculosis, malignancy (as expected, given 1 year follow-up), or drug-induced liver disease were reported. Disease activity improved across indications. Conclusion: CT-P13 was well tolerated and effective across indications.

Tangsawad W, Kositamongkol C, Chongtrakool P, Phisalprapa P, Jitmuang A. The burden of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales infection in a large Thai tertiary care hospital. Front Pharmacol 2022; 13:972900. [PMID: 36120317 PMCID: PMC9479096 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2022.972900] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2022] [Accepted: 08/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) are resistant to several other classes of antimicrobials, reducing treatment options and increasing mortality. We studied the clinical characteristics and burden of hospitalized adult patients with CRE infections in a setting where treatment options are limited. Methods: A retrospective cohort study included adult inpatients between January 2015–December 2019 at Siriraj Hospital in Bangkok, Thailand. Clinical and microbiological data were reviewed. Results: Of 420 patients with CRE infections, the mean age was 65.00 ± 18.89 years, 192 (45.72%) were male, and 112 (26.90%) were critically ill. Three hundred and eighty (90.48%) had Klebsiella pneumoniae, and 40 (9.52%) had Escherichia coli infections. The mean APACHE II score was 14.27 ± 6.36. Nearly half had previous hospitalizations (48.81%), 41.2% received antimicrobials, and 88.1% had undergone medical procedures before the onset of infection. The median time of onset of CRE infection was 16 days after admission. Common sites of infection were bacteremia (53.90%) and pneumonia (45.47%). Most CRE-infected patients had septic shock (63.10%) and Gram-negative co-infections (62.85%). Colistin (29.95%) and non-colistin (12.91%) monotherapies, and colistin-based (44.78%) and non-colistin-based (12.36%) combination therapies were the best available antimicrobial therapies (BAAT). The median length of hospitalization was 31 days, and the median hospitalization cost was US$10,435. The in-hospital mortality rate was 68.33%. Septic shock [adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 10.73, 5.65–20.42, p <0 .001], coinfection (aOR 2.43, 1.32–4.47, p = 0.004), mechanical ventilation (aOR 2.33, 1.24–4.36, p = 0.009), and a high SOFA score at onset (aOR 1.18, 1.07–1.30, p <0 .001) were associated with mortality. Conclusion: CRE infection increases mortality, hospital stays, and healthcare costs. A colistin-based regimen was the BAAT in this study. Therefore, newer antimicrobial agents are urgently needed.

A propensity score-weighted comparison between adalimumab originator and its biosimilars, ABP501 and SB5, in inflammatory bowel disease: a multicenter Italian study. Therap Adv Gastroenterol 2021; 14:17562848211031420. [PMID: 34349836 PMCID: PMC8295962 DOI: 10.1177/17562848211031420] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2021] [Accepted: 06/22/2021] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Adalimumab is an effective and safe biological drug for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Nowadays, several biosimilar agents are available, but data regarding their efficacy and safety in patients with IBD are still lacking. We aimed to compare the effectiveness and tolerability between adalimumab originator, ABP501 and SB5 biosimilars in patients with IBD in the short term (after induction and after 6 months of treatment) through a propensity score-weighted multicenter cohort study. METHODS We included 156 patients with IBD, 69 patients with ulcerative colitis and 87 patients with Crohn's disease (CD) receiving ABP501 or SB5 biosimilars from January 2019 to April 2020 for moderate-to-severe disease. For comparison, a group of age- and sex-matched patients treated with adalimumab originator was used. We collected clinical and biochemical data after induction and at 6 months of treatment. Endoscopic data were recorded only at baseline. RESULTS Overall, clinical benefit was achieved by 86.4% and 85.3% after induction and at 6 months, respectively, without a statistically significant difference between the three treatment groups (p = 0.68 and p = 0.46). However, after induction, we found significant differences between the two types of the disease (ulcerative colitis or CD, p = 0.004), with a greater clinical benefit achieved by patients with CD. Also, the therapeutic optimization rate between the three drugs was not statistically significant different (p = 0.30). All treatments showed a good safety profile, with only 10 patients who needed to stop therapy because of adverse events. CONCLUSION Adalimumab biosimilars seem to be as effective and safe as the originator in patients with IBD. Surely, they represent a great opportunity to reduce the costs of biological therapies, however larger and longer real-life studies are necessary.
