Aims: To investigate quality of life (QOL) and functionality changes in chronic pain during tapentadol prolonged release (PR) treatment. Patients & methods: Post hoc analysis of data from three Phase III trials in patients with osteoarthritis knee pain or low back pain. QOL and functionality changes were assessed by SF-36 scores. Results: All SF-36 subdomain scores improved progressively to week 3 of tapentadol titration and were sustained during 12-week maintenance treatment. Improvements in SF-36 scores were similar between tapentadol dose groups (e.g., 200 to <300 mg vs ≥500 mg), with no greater effect from higher doses. QOL and functionality improvements were consistently greater with tapentadol PR than oxycodone controlled release. Conclusion: Tapentadol PR provides consistent, clinically relevant improvements in QOL and functionality in chronic pain.

8544 Background: The MM-015 pivotal phase III trial showed significant PFS benefit for MPR-R (31 mos) vs. MPR (14 mos) or MP (13 mos; both p < 0.001) followed by placebo in NDMM pts aged ≥ 65 years. As NDMM pts with RI have poor prognosis, this retrospective analysis studied the efficacy and safety of MPR-R in pts with creatinine clearance (CrCl) < 60 mL/min. Methods: LEN starting dose for induction/maintenance was 10 mg/day (D1–21 of a 28-day cycle). Dose adjustments were not recommended for pts with RI. CrCl was calculated using the Cockcroft-Gault equation. Pts with severe RI (serum Cr > 2.5 mg/dL [221 μmol/L]) were excluded from the trial. Results: Pts with CrCl < 60 mL/min (median 47, interquartile range [IQR] 38–55) were included in this analysis: 51% MPR-R, 45% MPR, and 49% MP. Median PFS was significantly higher with MPR-R (26 mos [95% CI 14–48]) vs. MPR (13 mos [95% CI 12–15]) or MP (14 mos [95% CI 12–16]; both p < 0.001). In a Cox proportional model of PFS, CrCl < 60 mL/min was not identified as a negative prognostic factor (p = 0.69). The most common Gr 4 adverse events (AEs) were hematologic and occurred predominantly during induction and are shown in the Table for pts with or without moderate RI. The number of deaths on study was similar: 10% (MPR-R), 7% (MPR), and 8% (MP); deaths associated with RI or disease progression were reported in ≤ 1% of pts with RI across the arms. Conclusions: The benefit of continuous LEN treatment with MPR-R is not compromised in NDMM pts with moderate RI, consistent with the overall trial results. CrCl and AEs should be monitored closely in this population. Clinical trial information: NCT00405756. [Table: see text]

ObjectiveThis analysis evaluated efficacy and safety of filgotinib, a Janus-associated kinase 1-preferential inhibitor, in methotrexate (MTX)-naive patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with multiple poor prognostic factors (PPFs).MethodsThis was a post hoc analysis of the phase III, randomised, double-blind, active-controlled, FINCH 3 study (clinicaltrials.gov NCT02886728). Patients received once-daily oral filgotinib 200 or 100 mg plus once-weekly oral MTX ≤20 mg (FIL200 + MTX and FIL100 + MTX), filgotinib 200 mg monotherapy (FIL200), or oral MTX monotherapy (MTX-mono) for up to 52 weeks. PPFs investigated were seropositivity for rheumatoid factor or anticyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies, high-sensitivity C reactive protein (CRP) ≥4 mg/L, Disease Activity Score in 28 joints with CRP (DAS28(CRP)) >5.1, and presence of erosions. Filgotinib efficacy and safety in patients with all four PPFs at baseline were explored versus MTX-mono within this subgroup and compared informally with the overall population.ResultsOf 1249 patients in FINCH 3, 510 (40.8%) had all PPFs. Efficacy of FIL200 + MTX among these patients was comparable to the overall population, with higher rates of 20%/50%/70% improvement from baseline by American College of Rheumatology criteria, DAS28(CRP) <2.6, and remission; greater improvement in physical function and pain; and better inhibition of structural damage relative to MTX-mono. FIL100 + MTX and FIL200 were not consistently more efficacious versus MTX-mono. Safety of filgotinib in patients with PPFs was comparable to the overall population; no new safety signals were observed.ConclusionFIL200 + MTX efficacy and safety in patients with multiple PPFs were similar to the overall population.

Aim: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of ceftobiprole in patients aged ≥65 years. Materials & methods: We conducted a post hoc analysis of three randomized, double-blind, Phase III studies in patients with acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections, community-acquired pneumonia and hospital-acquired pneumonia. Results: Findings for patients aged ≥65 years (n = 633) were consistent with those for the overall study populations, although a trend toward improved outcomes was reported in some subgroups, for example, patients aged ≥75 years with community-acquired pneumonia were more likely to achieve an early clinical response with ceftobiprole than comparator (treatment difference 16.3% [95% CI:1.8–30.8]). The safety profile was similar between treatment groups in all studies. Conclusion: This analysis further supports the efficacy and safety of ceftobiprole in older patients with acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections or pneumonia.
