Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study to Assess Safety and Efficacy of Avalglucosidase Alfa Administered Every Other Week in Pediatric Patients With Infantile-onset Pompe Disease Previously Treated With Alglucosidase Alfa (NCT NCT03019406)

The study was conducted at 10 active centers in 5 countries. Total of 22 participants were screened between 12 October 2017 and 03 April 2019. None of the participants were screen failed. Participants were assigned to treatment by using interactive response technology system.

Participants in Cohorts 1 received avalglucosidase alfa 20 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) every other week (qow) and participants in Cohort 2 received avalglucosidase alfa 40 mg/kg qow. No randomization process was applied for Cohort 1 and 2. Participants in Cohort 3 were randomized (stratified by gender) to receive either avalglucosidase alfa 40 mg/kg qow (3a) or their current stable alglucosidase alfa dose regimen (3b). Data reported based on primary completion date, i.e., 30 September 2019.

Adverse event (AE): any untoward medical occurrence in participant received study drug \& did not necessarily had to have causal relationship with treatment. TEAEs: AEs developed/worsened in grade/become serious during PAP period (from the time of 1st study drug dose up to Week 25). Serious AE(SAE): any untoward medical occurrence at any dose resulted in death, was life-threatening, required inpatient hospitalization, prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, was congenital anomaly/birth defect or was medically important event. TEAEs included SAEs \& non-SAEs. AESI:AE (serious/non-serious) of scientific \& medical concern specific to Sponsor's product/program, for which ongoing monitoring \& immediate notification by Investigator to Sponsor required.

IARs were defined as AESIs that occurred during either the infusion or the observation period following the infusion which were deemed to be related or possibly related to the study drug. Protocol-defined IARs: An AESIs that occurred during either the infusion or the observation period following the infusion which were deemed to be related or possibly related to study drug. Algorithm-defined IARs: any TEAE meeting either 1 or 2 criteria: 1) event occurred from the start of infusion to the end of infusion plus 24 hours, and considered related to study drug, 2) If an AE time component was missing, compared AE Start date with infusion start date and infusion end date. If an AE Start date was between infusion start date and infusion end date plus one day, and it was related to study drug.

Anti-drug antibody response was categorized as: Treatment induced ADAs: ADAs developed de novo (seroconversion) following administration of study drug. Treatment boosted ADAs: pre-existing ADAs that were boosted at least two titer steps from Baseline (i.e., 4-fold increase in titers) followed by administration of study drug.

Cmax is the maximum observed plasma concentration.

Tmax is the time to achieve maximum plasma concentration.

AUC0-last is the area under the plasma concentration versus time curve from time 0 to the time of last quantifiable concentration.

t1/2 is the time required for the plasma concentration of a drug to decrease by half of its initial concentration.

CL is defined as a quantitative measure of the rate at which a drug substance is removed from the body.

Steady state volume of distribution (Vss) is defined as the theoretical volume in which the total amount of drug would need to be uniformly distributed to produce the desired plasma concentration of a drug.

GMFM-88 was developed specifically to detect quantitative changes in gross motor function. The GMFM-88 consisted of 88 items organized into 5 dimensions; lying and rolling (17 items); sitting (20 items); crawling and kneeling (14 items); standing (13 items) and walking, running and jumping (24 items). Each item was scored on a 4-point Likert scale with scores range: 0= cannot do; 1 = initiates less then \[\<\] 10 percentage \[%\] of the task; 2 = partially completes \[10% to \<100% of the task\] and 3 = task completion. The score for each dimension was expressed as a % of the maximum score for that dimension.Total percentage score was obtained by adding the percentage scores for each dimension and dividing the sum by the total number of dimensions. Total scores ranged from 0% to 100%; where higher scores indicated better motor functions.

GMFCS-E\&R was a 5 level classification system for specific age ranges; observations were performed on 5 levels based on self-initiated movement, with emphasis on sitting, transfers, and mobility: Level I (walks without limitations), Level II (walks with limitations), Level III (walks using a hand-held mobility device), Level IV (self-mobility with limitations; may use powered mobility) and level V (transported in a manual wheel chair) (I to V). The distinctions between levels were based on functional limitations, the need for assistive mobility devices, and to a much lesser extent, quality of movement, and were designed to be meaningful in daily life. The lower level represented good motor functioning and higher level represented low motor functioning. Number of participants in each level of classification at Baseline and Week 25 were reported.

Pompe-PEDI: disease specific version to assess functional capabilities and performance in children with Pompe disease from 2 months through adolescence. It comprised of Functional Skills Scale and Caregiver Assistance Scale; both scales had 3 domains: Self Care, Mobility, and Social Function. Mobility domain was used to measure change in mobility due to changes in muscle strength; consisted of 160 mobility items for participant/legal guardian. The total number of mobility items the child was capable of, was converted to a scaled score with a range of 0 to 100, where scores near "0" indicated low capability and scores near "100" indicated high capability), where higher score was indicative of greater functional ability. Scaled scores were used to interpret individual function and progress over time.

QMFT was observer administered test comprised of 16 items specifically difficult for participants with Pompe disease. Each item was scored on 5-point ordinal scale ranged from 0 to 4 (higher score indicated better outcome). Total QMFT score was obtained by adding the scores of all items and ranged from 0 (unable to perform motor function tests) to 64 (normal muscle function), where higher score indicated better outcome/greater motor function.

Cardiac function was evaluated using LVM Z-score as assessed by echocardiogram in M-mode. Z-Scores indicated the number of standard deviations (SD) from the mean in a normal distribution. The normal range is -2 to 2 and greater than 2 may indicate left ventricular hypertrophy. A negative change from Baseline indicated a decrease and positive change from Baseline indicated an increase in LVM Z-score. In this OM, absolute scores at Baseline and Week 25 along with Change from Baseline at Week 25 in LVM Z-score were reported.

IPFD is the widest vertical distance (in millimeters) between the upper eyelid and the lower eyelid when the participant is looking in "primary gaze" (i.e. normal gaze when looking straight forward). Images were taken while the participants was wearing a pair of empty eyeglass frames with millimeters rulers attached as a standardized tool to measure eyelid position without camera flash. A negative change from Baseline indicated a decrease and positive change from Baseline indicated an increase in measured distance.

The MRD is the vertical distance (in millimeters) between the light reflex and the upper eyelid when the participant was looking in "primary gaze" while fixating on a light source. Images were taken while the participants was wearing a pair of empty eyeglass frames with millimeters rulers attached as a standardized tool to measure eyelid position. A negative change from Baseline indicated a decrease and positive change from Baseline indicated an increase in measured distance.

The MPD is the vertical distance (in millimeters) between the center of the pupil and the upper eyelid margin. Images were taken while the participants was wearing a pair of empty eyeglass frames with millimeters rulers attached as a standardized tool to measure eyelid position without camera flash. A negative change from Baseline indicated a decrease and positive change from Baseline indicated an increase in measured distance.

Change from Baseline in Creatine kinase value (to assess muscle damage) at Week 25 were reported in this OM.
