Abstract
Objectives: To assess the efficacy of Panobacumab, a fully human IgM monoclonal antibody against P. aeruginosa serotype O11, by comparing a phase IIa trial with a standard care cohort trial both in hospital acquired pneumonia (HAP) caused by P. aeruginosa O11.
Methods: Demographics, outcome and survival of HAP including Ventilator Associated Pneumonia (VAP) in patients either treated with standard antimicrobial therapy in a retrospective cohort trial (CT) or with adjunctive Panobacumab therapy during an open phase IIa trial were compared. Both trials applied the same inclusion exclusion criteria and the same trial period of 30 days.
Results: 17 patients with VAP/HAP (14 / 3) caused by P. aeruginosa O11 were enrolled in a phase IIa trial (ITT population) and treated with Panobacumab, 13 of them received the full treatment course of 3 infusions (PP population, 12 VAP, 1 HAP) and 4 patients received only one infusion. In the cohort trial 14 patients (VAP/HAP: 12 / 2) treated with standard antibiotic therapy were included.
The mean age and weight were 65.8 y (years) (SD 17.2) and 78.0 kg (SD 22.1) in the PP, 67.8 y (SD 15.4) and 77.1 kg (SD 20.2) in the ITT population and 51.8 y (SD 22.3) and 67.1 kg (SD 13.0) in the CT.
At the time of suspicion of pneumonia a mean APACHE II and CPIS of 19.4 (13 - 33) and 8.7 (7 - 11) in the PP, 18.9 (13-33) and 8.5 (7 -11) in the ITT and 14.5 (2 - 24) and 7.5 (3 -12) in the CT population were observed.
Tracheostomy was present in 53.8% and 52.9% in the PP and ITT populations and 38.4% in the CT.
The pneumonia was polymicrobial in 69.2%, 70.6% and 85.7% in the PP, ITT and CT respectively.
Stay at ICU and hospital before diagnosis of pneumonia were similar in the 3 groups.
All 13 patients that received 3 doses of Panobacumab achieved resolution of pneumonia with only two relapsing during the study. Hence 85% achieved resolution and 15% recurrence at day 30. In the ITT group 64.7% of the pneumonia resolved 11.8% recurred and 23.5% continued while in the CT 57% resolved, 7% recurred and 34% continued.
Resolution of pneumonia occurred markedly earlier in the Panobacumab trial (8.9 days, SD: 3.3) than in the cohort trial (15.3 days, SD: 9.5).
The expected mortality derived from APACHE II score was 31% and 32% in the PP and ITT population and 22% in the cohort group. All patients who received 3 doses of Panobacumab survived, 18% died in the ITT group while in the CT 21% mortality matched the predicted mortality.
Conclusions: Treatment of VAP/HAP caused by P. aeruginosa O11 with 3 doses of Panobacumab resulted in 100% survival, with highest pneumonia resolution (85%), and in a shorter time when compared with patients under standard therapy. The results indicate that Panobacumab may be effective in such life-threatening indication and warrants larger controlled trials.
