BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Inotuzumab ozogamicin is an antibody-drug conjugate approved for treating relapsed/refractory B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL) in adults. Pediatric pharmacokinetic data of inotuzumab ozogamicin are lacking. This study is the first to examine the population pharmacokinetics of inotuzumab ozogamicin in pediatric patients with relapsed/refractory BCP-ALL. METHODS: From 531 adult patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, 234 adult patients with BCP-ALL, and 53 pediatric patients with BCP-ALL, 8924 inotuzumab ozogamicin serum concentrations were analyzed using non-linear mixed-effects modeling. A published adult inotuzumab ozogamicin population-pharmacokinetic model, a two-compartment model with linear and time-dependent clearance, was adapted to describe the pediatric data. RESULTS: Modifications in this analysis, compared to the published adult model, included: (i) re-estimating pharmacokinetic parameters and covariate effects; (ii) modifying covariate representation; and (iii) introducing relevant pediatric covariate effects (age on the decay coefficient of time-dependent clearance and ALL effect (disease type and/or different bioanalytical analysis methods) on initial values of time-dependent clearance). For patients with relapsed/refractory BCP-ALL, increasing age was associated with a decreasing decay coefficient of time-dependent clearance, reflecting that the target-mediated drug clearance declines more rapidly in children. In pediatric BCP-ALL, the median [interquartile range] cumulative area under the concentration-time curve was significantly higher among responders (n = 42) versus non-responders (n = 10) at the end of the first cycle (26.1 [18.9-35.0] vs 10.1 [9.19-16.1], × 103 ng*h/mL, p < 0.001). From simulations performed at the recommended pediatric phase II dose, inotuzumab ozogamicin exposure reached a similar level as observed in responding pediatric trial participants. CONCLUSIONS: The pharmacokinetic profile of inotuzumab ozogamicin in pediatric patients with relapsed/refractory BCP-ALL was well described in this study. No dose adjustment is required clinically for pediatric patients with BCP-ALL based on the simulated inotuzumab ozogamicin exposure at the recommended pediatric phase II dose, promising efficacy and acceptable tolerability.
