Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates in general to compositions and methods of preventing or delaying the onset of clinical type 1 diabetes (T1D) in subjects at risk, and more particularly the use of anti-CD3 antibodies.
  • T1D clinical type 1 diabetes
  • Type 1 diabetes is caused by the autoimmune destruction of insulin producing beta cells in the islets of Langerhans leading to dependence on exogeneous insulin injections for survival.
  • T1D Type 1 diabetes
  • Most affected individuals with T1D are not able to consistently achieve desired glycemic targets.
  • For individuals with type 1 diabetes there are persisting concerns for increased risk of both morbidity and mortality. Two recent studies noted loss of 17.7 life-years for children diagnosed before age 10, and 11 and 13 life-years lost for adult-diagnosed Scottish men and women respectively.
  • T1D progresses through asymptomatic stages prior to overt hyperglycemia, characterized first by the appearance of autoantibodies (Stage 1) and then dysglycemia (Stage 2).
  • Stage 2 metabolic responses to a glucose load are impaired but other metabolic indices, for example glycosylated hemoglobin, are normal and insulin treatment is not needed.
  • FcR non-binding anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody teplizumab One promising therapy is the FcR non-binding anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody teplizumab, as several studies have shown that short-term treatment reduces loss of P cell function durably, with an observable effect seen as long as 7 years after diagnosis and treatment.

  • T1D Stage 3 type 1 diabetes
  • Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease characterized by T-cell mediated destruction of insulin producing beta cells within the pancreatic islets of Langerhans. Longitudinal observational studies over more than 30 years have described the progression of the autoimmune disease from the first appearance of autoantibodies until beta cell function is critically impaired and the clinical diagnosis, often with ketoacidosis, occurs (7-5). T1D is associated with a need for lifelong exogenous insulin administration for survival, increased morbidity and mortality due to immediate (e.g. hypoglycemia) and long-term complications (e.g. vascular, renal, and eye disease), and reduced life-span, life impairments, and considerable health-care-related costs (6-9). Thus, approaches to prevent progression to clinical T1D before irremediable beta cell destruction and insulin deficiency, are of paramount importance.

FIELD
[0003] The present disclosure relates in general to compositions and methods of preventing or delaying the onset of clinical type 1 diabetes (T1D) in subjects at risk, and more particularly the use of anti-CD3 antibodies.
BACKGROUND
[0004] Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is caused by the autoimmune destruction of insulin producing beta cells in the islets of Langerhans leading to dependence on exogeneous insulin injections for survival. Approximately 1.6 million Americans have Type 1 diabetes, and after asthma, it remains one of the most common diseases of childhood. Despite improvements in care, most affected individuals with T1D are not able to consistently achieve desired glycemic targets. For individuals with type 1 diabetes, there are persisting concerns for increased risk of both morbidity and mortality. Two recent studies noted loss of 17.7 life-years for children diagnosed before age 10, and 11 and 13 life-years lost for adult-diagnosed Scottish men and women respectively.
[0005] In genetically susceptible individuals, T1D progresses through asymptomatic stages prior to overt hyperglycemia, characterized first by the appearance of autoantibodies (Stage 1) and then dysglycemia (Stage 2). In Stage 2, metabolic responses to a glucose load are impaired but other metabolic indices, for example glycosylated hemoglobin, are normal and insulin treatment is not needed. These immunologic and metabolic features identify individuals who are at high-risk for development of clinical disease with overt hyperglycemia and requirement for insulin treatment (Stage 3). Several immune interventions have been shown to delay decline in beta cell function when studied in recent-onset clinical T1D. One promising therapy is the FcR non-binding anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody teplizumab, as several studies have shown that short-term treatment reduces loss of P cell function durably, with an observable effect seen as long as 7 years after diagnosis and treatment. The drug modifies the function of CD8+ T lymphocytes, which are thought to be important effector cells that cause beta cell killing.
[0006] To date, no intervention initiated before the clinical diagnosis (i.e., at Stage 1 or 2) has altered progression to clinical, Stage 3 T1D. Thus, a need exists for a treatment that would prevent or delay the onset of clinical T1D in high-risk individuals.

[0065] As used herein, the term "prophylactically effective amount" refers to that amount of teplizumab sufficient to result in the delay or prevention of the development, recurrence or onset of one or more symptoms of T1D. In some embodiments, a prophylactically effective amount preferably refers to the amount of teplizumab that delays a subject's onset of T1D by at least 20%, by at least 25%, by at least 30%, by at least 35%, by at least 40%, by at least 45%, by at least 50%, by at least 55%, by at least 60%, by at least 65%, by at least 70%, by at least 75%, by at least 80%, by at least 85%, by at least 90%, by at least 95%.
[0066] Various aspects of the disclosure are described in further detail below. Additional definitions are set out throughout the specification.
Anti-CD3 Antibodies and Pharmaceutical Compositions
[0067] The terms "anti-CD3 antibody" and "an antibody that binds to CD3" refer to an antibody or antibody fragment that is capable of binding cluster of differentiation 3 (CD3) with sufficient affinity such that the antibody is useful as a prophylactic, diagnostic and/or therapeutic agent in targeting CD3. In some embodiments, the extent of binding of an anti-CD3 antibody to an unrelated, non-CD3 protein is less than about 10% of the binding of the antibody to CD3 as measured, e.g., by a radioimmunoassay (RIA). In some embodiments, an antibody that binds to CD3 has a dissociation constant (Kd) of < 1 pM, < 100 nM, < 10 nM, < 1 nM, < 0.1 nM, < 0.01 nM, or < 0.001 nM (e.g. 10’8 M or less, e.g. from 10’8 M to 10’13 M, e.g., from 10’9 M to 10’13 M). In some embodiments, an anti-CD3 antibody binds to an epitope of CD3 that is conserved among CD3 from different species.
[0068] In some embodiments, the anti-CD3 antibody can be ChAglyCD3 (otelixizumab). Otelixizumab is a humanized Fc nonbinding anti-CD3, which was evaluated initially in phase 2 studies by the Belgian Diabetes Registry (BDR) and then developed by Tolerx, which then partnered with GSK to conduct the phase 3 DEFEND new onset T1D trials (NCT00678886, NCT01123083, NCT00763451). Otelixizumab is administered IV with infusions over 8 days. See, e.g., Wiczling et al., J. Clin. Pharmacol. 50 (5) (May 2010) 494-506; Keymeulen et al., N Engl J Med. 2005;352:2598-608; Keymeulen et al., Diabetologia. 2010;53:614-23; Hagopian et al., Diabetes. 2013;62:3901-8; Aronson et al., Diabetes Care. 2014;37:2746-54; Ambery et al., Diabet Med. 2014;31:399-402; Bolt et al., Eur. J. Immunol. 1YY3. 23: 403-411; Vlasakakis et al., Br J Clin Pharmacol (2019) 85 704-714; Guglielmi et al, Expert Opinion on Biological Therapy, 16:6, 841-846; Keymeulen et al., N Engl J Med 2005;352:2598-608; Keymeulen et al., BLOOD 2010, VOL 115, No. 6; Sprangers et al., Immunotherapy (2011) 3(11), 1303-1316; Daifotis et al., Clinical Immunology (2013) 149, 268-278; all incorporated herein by reference.
[0069] In some embodiments, the anti-CD3 antibody can be visilizumab (also called HuM291 ; Nuvion). Visilizumab is a humanized anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody characterized by a mutated IgG2 isotype, lack of binding to Fey receptors, and the ability to induce apoptosis selectively in activated T cells. It was evaluated in patients in graft-versus-host disease (NCT00720629; NCT00032279) and in ulcerative colitis (NCT00267306) and Crohn’s Disease (NCT00267709). See, e.g., Sandborn et al., Gut 59 (11) (Nov 2010) 1485-1492, incorporated herein by reference.
[0070] In some embodiments, the anti-CD3 antibody can be foralumab, a fully human anti- CD3 monoclonal antibody being developed by Tiziana Life Sciences, PLC in NASH and T2D (NCT03291249). See, e.g., Ogura et al., Clin Immunol, 2017;183:240-246; Ishikawa et al., Diabetes. 2007;56(8):2103-9; Wuetal., J Immunol, 2010;185(6):3401-7; all incorporated herein by reference.
[0071] In some embodiments, the anti-CD3 antibody can be teplizumab. Teplizumab, also known as hOKT3yl(Ala-Ala) (containing an alanine at positions 234 and 235) is an anti-CD3 antibody that had been engineered to alter the function of the T lymphocytes that mediate the destruction of the insulin-producing beta cells of the islets of the pancreas. Teplizumab binds to an epitope of the CD3s chain expressed on mature T cells and by doing so changes their function. Sequences and compositions of teplizumab are disclosed in U.S. Patent Nos. 6,491,916; 8,663,634; and 9,056,906, each incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. The full sequences of light and heavy chains are set forth below. Bolded portions are the complementarity determining regions.

[0072] In some embodiments, provided herein, is a pharmaceutical composition. Such compositions compnse a prophylactically effective amount of an anti-CD3 antibody, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. In some embodiments, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable" means approved by a regulatory agency of the Federal or a state government or listed in the U.S. Pharmacopeia or other generally recognized pharmacopeia for use in animals, and more particularly in humans. The term "carrier" refers to a diluent, adjuvant (e.g., Freund's adjuvant (complete and incomplete)), excipient, or vehicle with which the therapeutic is administered. Such pharmaceutical carriers can be sterile liquids, such as water and oils, including those of petroleum, animal, vegetable or synthetic origin, such as peanut oil, soybean oil, mineral oil, sesame oil and the like. Water is a preferred carrier when the pharmaceutical composition is administered intravenously. Saline solutions and aqueous dextrose and glycerol solutions can also be employed as liquid carriers, particularly for injectable solutions. Suitable pharmaceutical excipients include starch, glucose, lactose, sucrose, gelatin, malt, rice, flour, chalk, silica gel, sodium stearate, glycerol monostearate, talc, sodium chloride, dried skim milk, glycerol, propylene, glycol, water, ethanol and the like (See, for example. Handbook of Pharmaceutical Excipients, Arthur H. Kibbe (ed., 2000, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety), Am. Pharmaceutical Association, Washington, D.C.
[0073] The composition, if desired, can also contain minor amounts of weting or emulsifying agents, or pH buffering agents. These compositions can take the form of solutions, suspensions, emulsion, tablets, pills, capsules, powders, sustained release formulations and the like. Oral formulation can include standard carriers such as pharmaceutical grades of mannitol, lactose, starch, magnesium stearate, sodium saccharine, cellulose, magnesium carbonate, etc. Examples of suitable pharmaceutical carriers are described in "Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences" by E. W. Martin. Such compositions will contain a prophylactically or therapeutically effective amount of a prophylactic or therapeutic agent preferably in purified form, together with a suitable amount of carrier so as to provide the form for proper administration to the patient. The formulation should suit the mode of administration. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions are sterile and in suitable form for administration to a subject, preferably an animal subject, more preferably a mammalian subject, and most preferably a human subject.
[0074] In some embodiments, it may be desirable to administer the pharmaceutical compositions locally to the area in need of treatment; this may be achieved by, for example, and not by way of limitation, local infusion, by injection, or by means of an implant, the implant being of a porous, non-porous, or gelatinous material, including membranes, such as sialastic membranes, or fibers. Preferably, when administering the anti-CD3 antibody, care must be taken to use materials to which the anti-CD3 antibody does not absorb.
[0075] In some embodiments, the composition can be delivered in a vesicle, in particular a liposome (see Langer, Science 249: 1527-1533 (1990); Treat et al., in Liposomes in the Therapy of Infectious Disease and Cancer, Lopez-Berestein and Fidler (eds.), Liss, New York, pp. 353- 365 (1989); Lopez-Berestein, ibid., pp. 317-327; see generally ibid.).
[0076] In some embodiments, the composition can be delivered in a controlled release or sustained release system. In some embodiments, a pump may be used to achieve controlled or sustained release (see Langer, supra; Sefton, 1987, CRC Crit. Ref. Biomed. Eng. 14:20; Buchwald et al., 1980, Surgery 88:507; Saudek et al., 1989, N. Engl. J. Med. 321 :574). In some embodiments, polymeric materials can be used to achieve controlled or sustained release of the antibodies of the invention or fragments thereof (see e.g., Medical Applications of Controlled Release, Langer and Wise (eds.), CRC Pres., Boca Raton, Fla. (1974); Controlled Drug Bioavailability, Drug Product Design and Performance, Smolen and Ball (eds ), Wiley, New York (1984); Ranger and Peppas, 1983, J., Macromol. Sci. Rev. Macromol. Chem. 23:61; see also Levy et al., 1985, Science 228: 190; During et al., 1989, Ann. Neurol. 25:351; Howard et al., 1989, J. Neurosurg. 71: 105); U.S. Pat. No. 5,679,377; U.S. Pat. No. 5,916,597; U.S. Pat. No. 5,912,015; U.S. Pat. No. 5,989,463; U.S. Pat. No. 5,128,326; PCT Publication No. WO 99/15154; and PCT Publication No. WO 99/20253. Examples of polymers used in sustained release formulations include, but are not limited to, poly(2-hydroxy ethyl methacrylate), poly(methyl methacrylate), poly(acrylic acid), poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate), poly(methacrylic acid), polyglycolides (PLG), polyanhydrides, poly(N-vinyl pyrrolidone), poly(vinyl alcohol), polyacrylamide, poly(ethylene glycol), polylactides (PLA), poly(lactide-co-glycolides) (PLGA), and polyorthoesters. In some embodiments, the polymer used in a sustained release formulation is inert, free of leachable impurities, stable on storage, sterile, and biodegradable. In some embodiments, a controlled or sustained release system can be placed in proximity of the therapeutic target, i.e., the lungs, thus requiring only a fraction of the systemic dose (see, e.g., Goodson, in Medical Applications of Controlled Release, supra, vol. 2, pp. 115-138 (1984)).
[0077] Controlled release systems are discussed in the review by Langer (1990, Science 249: 1527-1533). Any technique known to one of skill in the art can be used to produce sustained release formulations comprising one or more antibodies of the invention or fragments thereof. See, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 4,526,938; PCT Publication No. WO 91/05548; PCT Publication No. WO 96/20698; Ning et al., 1996, Radiotherapy & Oncology 39:179-189; Song et al., 1995, PDA Journal of Pharmaceutical Science & Technology 50:372-397; Cleek et al., 1997, Pro. Infl. Symp. Control. Rel. Bioact. Mater. 24:853-854; and Lam et al., 1997, Proc. Infl. Symp. Control Rel. Bioact. Mater. 24:759-760, each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
[0078] A pharmaceutical composition can be formulated to be compatible with its intended route of administration. Examples of routes of administration include, but are not limited to, parenteral, e.g., intravenous, intradermal, subcutaneous, oral, intranasal (e.g., inhalation), transdermal (topical), transmucosal, and rectal administration. In some embodiments, the composition is formulated in accordance with routine procedures as a pharmaceutical composition adapted for intravenous, subcutaneous, intramuscular, oral, intranasal or topical administration to human beings. In some embodiments, a pharmaceutical composition is formulated in accordance with routine procedures for subcutaneous administration to human beings. Typically, compositions for intravenous administration are solutions in sterile isotonic aqueous buffer. Where necessary, the composition may also include a solubilizing agent and a local anesthetic such as lignocamne to ease pain at the site of the injection.
[0079] The compositions may be formulated for parenteral administration by injection, e.g., by bolus injection or continuous infusion. Formulations for injection may be presented in unit dosage form, e.g., in ampoules or in multi-dose containers, with an added preservative. The compositions may take such forms as suspensions, solutions or emulsions in oily or aqueous vehicles, and may contain formulatory agents such as suspending, stabilizing and/or dispersing agents. Alternatively, the active ingredient may be in powder form for constitution with a suitable vehicle, e.g., sterile pyrogen-free water, before use. In some embodiments, the disclosure provides dosage forms that permit administration of the anti-CD3 antibody continuously over a period of hours or days (e.g., associated with a pump or other device for such delivery), for example, over a period of 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, 8 hours, 10 hours, 12 hours, 16 hours, 20 hours, 24 hours, 30 hours, 36 hours, 4 days, 5 days, 7 days, 10 days or 14 days. In some embodiments, the invention provides dosage forms that permit administration of a continuously increasing dose, for example, increasing from 51 ug/m2/day to 826 ug/m2/day over a period of 24 hours, 30 hours, 36 hours, 4 days, 5 days, 7 days, 10 days or 14 days.
[0080] The compositions can be formulated as neutral or salt forms. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts include those formed with anions such as those derived from hydrochloric, phosphoric, acetic, oxalic, tartaric acids, etc., and those formed with cations such as those derived from sodium, potassium, ammonium, calcium, ferric hydroxides, isopropylamine, tri ethyl amine, 2-ethylamino ethanol, histidine, procaine, etc.
[0081] Generally, the ingredients of the compositions disclosed herein are supplied either separately or mixed together in unit dosage form, for example, as a dry lyophilized powder or water free concentrate in a hermetically sealed container such as an ampoule or sachette indicating the quantity of active agent. Where the composition is to be administered by infusion, it can be dispensed with an infusion bottle or bag containing sterile pharmaceutical grade water or saline. In some embodiments, the composition is in solution. In some embodiments, the composition is packaged into a vial (e.g. sterile glass vial of 0.9% sodium chloride injection) or into an infusion bag (e.g. Polyvinylchloride (PVC) infusion bag of 0.9% sodium chloride injection). In some embodiments, the vial is for single-dose. Where the composition is administered by injection, an ampoule of sterile water for injection or saline can be provided so that the ingredients may be mixed prior to administration.
[0082] In particular, the disclosure provides that the anti-CD3 antibodies, or pharmaceutical compositions thereof, can be packaged in a hermetically sealed container such as an ampoule or sachette indicating the quantity of the agent. In some embodiments, the anti-CD3 antibody, or pharmaceutical compositions thereof is supplied as a dry sterilized lyophilized powder or water free concentrate in a hermetically sealed container and can be reconstituted, e.g., with water or saline to the appropriate concentration for administration to a subject. Preferably, the anti-CD3 antibody, or pharmaceutical compositions thereof is supplied as a dry sterile lyophilized powder in a hermetically sealed container at a unit dosage of at least 5 mg, more preferably at least 10 mg, at least 15 mg, at least 25 mg, at least 35 mg, at least 45 mg, at least 50 mg, at least 75 mg, or at least 100 mg. The lyophilized prophylactic agents, or pharmaceutical compositions herein should be stored at between 2 °C and 8 °C in its original container and the prophylactic or therapeutic agents, or pharmaceutical compositions of the invention should be administered within 1 week, preferably within 5 days, within 72 hours, within 48 hours, within 24 hours, within 12 hours, within 6 hours, within 5 hours, within 3 hours, or within 1 hour after being reconstituted. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition is supplied in liquid form in a hermetically sealed container indicating the quantity and concentration of the agent. Preferably, the liquid fonn of the administered composition is supplied in a hermetically sealed container at least 0.25 mg/ml, more preferably at least 0.5 mg/ml, at least 1 mg/ml, at least 2.5 mg/ml, at least 5 mg/ml, at least 8 mg/ml, at least 10 mg/ml, at least 15 mg/ml, at least 25 mg/ml, at least 50 mg/ml, at least 75 mg/ml or at least 100 mg/ml. The liquid form should be stored at between 2 °C and 8 °C in its original container.
[0083] In some embodiments, the disclosure provides that the composition of the invention is packaged in a hennetically sealed container such as an ampoule or sachette indicating the quantity of the anti-CD3 antibody.
[0084] The compositions may, if desired, be presented in a pack or dispenser device that may contain one or more unit dosage forms containing the active ingredient. The pack may, for example, comprise metal or plastic foil, such as a blister pack.
[0085] The amount of the composition of the invention which will be effective in the prevention or amelioration of one or more symptoms associated with T1D can be determined by standard clinical techniques. The precise dose to be employed in the formulation will also depend on the route of administration and the seriousness of the condition, and should be decided according to the judgment of the practitioner and each patient's circumstances. Effective doses may be extrapolated from dose-response curves derived from in vitro or animal model test systems.
Methods and Use
[0086] In some embodiments, the present disclosure encompasses administration of antihuman CD3 antibodies such as teplizumab to individuals predisposed to develop type 1 diabetes or with pre-clinical stages of type 1 diabetes, but who do not meet the diagnosis criteria as established by the American Diabetes Association or the Immunology of Diabetes Society to prevent or delay the onset of type 1 diabetes and/or to prevent or delay the need for administration of insuhn to such patients. In some embodiments, high-risk factors for identification of predisposed subjects include having first or second degree relatives with diagnosed type-1 diabetes, an impaired fasting glucose level (e.g., at least one determination of a glucose level of 100-125 mg/dl after fasting (8 hours with no food)), an impaired glucose tolerance in response to a 75 g OGTT (e.g., at least one determination of a 2-hr glucose level of 140-199 mg/dl in response to a 75 g OGTT), an HLA type of DR3, DR4 or DR7 in a Caucasian, an HLA type of DR3 or DR4 in a person of African descent, an HLA type of DR3, DR4 or DR9 in a person of Japanese descent, exposure to viruses (e.g., coxsackie B virus, enteroviruses, adenoviruses, rubella, cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr vims), a positive diagnosis according to art accepted criteria of at least one other autoimmune disorder (e.g., thyroid disease, celiac disease), and/or the detection of autoantibodies, particularly ICAs and type 1 diabetes-associated autoantibodies, in the serum or other tissues. In some embodiments, the subject identified as predisposed to developing type 1 diabetes has at least one of the risk factors described herein and/or as known in the art. The present disclosure also encompasses identification of subjects predisposed to development of type 1 diabetes, wherein the subject presents a combination of two or more, three or more, four or more, or more than five of the risk factors disclosed herein or known in the art. In some embodiments, the non-diabetic subject is an adult or a pediatric subject. In some embodiments, the pediatric subject is 8 years old or older. In some embodiments, the pediatric subject is 7 years old or older. In some embodiments, the pediatric subject is 6 years old or older. In some embodiments, the pediatric subject is 5 years old or older. In some embodiments, the pediatric subject is 4 years old or older. In some embodiments, the pediatric subject is 3 years old or older. In some embodiments, the pediatric subject is 2 years old or older. In some embodiments, the pediatric subject is 1 year old or older. In some embodiments, the pediatric subject is an infant. In some embodiments, the infant is 12 months old or less, 11 months old or less, 10 months old of less, 9 months old or less, 8 months old or less, 7 months old or less, 6 months old or less, 5 months old or less, 4 months old or less, 3 months old or less, 2 months old or less, I month old or less.
[0087] Serum autoantibodies associated with type 1 diabetes or with a predisposition for the development of type 1 diabetes are islet-cell autoantibodies (e.g., anti-ICA512 autoantibodies), glutamic acid decarbamylase autoantibodies (e.g., anti-GAD65 autoantibodies), IA2 antibodies, ZnT8 antibodies and/or anti-insulin autoantibodies. Accordingly, in a specific example in accordance with this embodiment, the invention encompasses the treatment of an individual with detectable autoantibodies associated with a predisposition to the development of type 1 diabetes or associated with early stage type 1 diabetes (e.g., anti-IA2, anti-ICA512, anti-GAD or antiinsulin autoantibodies), wherein the individual has not been diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and/or is a first or second degree relative of a type-1 diabetic. In some embodiments, the presence of the autoantibodies is detected by ELISA, electrochemoluminescence (ECL), radioassay (see, e.g., Yu et al., 1996, J. Clin. Endocrinol. Metab. 81:4264-4267), agglutination PCR (Tsai et al, ACS Central Science 2016 2 (3), 139-147) or by any other method for immunospecific detection of antibodies described herein or as known to one of ordinary skill in the art.
[0088] P-cell function prior to, during, and after therapy may be assessed by methods described herein or by any method known to one of ordinary skill in the art. For example, the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT) research group has established the monitoring of percentage glycosylated hemoglobin (HA1 and HAlc) as the standard for evaluation of blood glucose control (DCCT, 1993, N. Engl. J. Med. 329:977-986). Alternatively, characterization of daily insulin needs, C-peptide levels/response, hypoglycemic episodes, and/or FPIR may be used as markers of p-cel 1 function or to establish a therapeutic index (See Keymeulen et al, 2005, N. Engl. J. Med. 352:2598-2608; Herold et al, 2005, Diabetes 54: 1763- 1769; U.S. Pat. Appl. Pub. No. 2004/0038867 Al; and Greenbaum et al, 2001, Diabetes 50:470- 476, respectively). For example, FPIR is calculated as the sum of insulin values at 1 and 3 minutes post IGTT, which are performed according to Islet Cell Antibody Register User's Study protocols (see, e.g., Bingley et al, 1996, Diabetes 45: 1720-1728 and McCulloch et al., 1993, Diabetes Care 16:911-915).
[0089] In some embodiments, the individuals predisposed to develop T1D can be a nondiabetic subject who is a relative of a patient with T1D. In some embodiments, the non-diabetic subject has 2 or more diabetes-related autoantibodies selected from islet cell antibodies (ICA), insulin autoantibodies (IAA), and antibodies to glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD), tyrosine phosphatase (IA-2/ICA512) or ZnT8.
[0090] In some embodiments, the non-diabetic subj ect has abnormal glucose tolerance on oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Abnormal glucose tolerance on OGTT is defined as a fasting glucose level of 110-125 mg/dL, or 2 hour plasma of > 140 and < 200 mg/dL, or an intervening glucose value at 30, 60, or 90 minutes on OGTT > 200 mg/dL. [0091] In some embodiments, the non-diabetic subject has abnormal results in a glucose monitoring system (CGM) revealing high sensor average glucose levels (>=110 mg/dL), or high variability of glycemia (CV >=15), or less time in range (>=10% of the time above 140 mg/dL).
[0092] In some embodiments, the non-diabetic subject who will respond to the anti-CD3 antibody such as teplizumab does not have antibodies against ZnT8. In some embodiments, such non-diabetic subject is HLA-DR4+ and is not HLA-DR3+. In some embodiments, such non- diabetic subject who will respond to the anti-CD3 antibody such as teplizumab demonstrates an increase, following administration (e.g., after 1 month, after 2 months, after 3 months, or longer or shorter), in the frequency (or relative amount) of TIGIT+KLRG1+CD8+ T-cells (e.g., by flow cytometry) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells.
[0093] In some embodiments, the methods provided herein comprise administering an antihuman CD3 antibodies such as teplizumab to a subject in need thereof with Stage 2 type 1 diabetes. In some embodiments, the subject is an adult. In some embodiments, the subject is a pediatric subject. In some embodiments, the pediatric subject is 8 years old or older (e.g. 8 years old, 9 years old, 10 years old, 11 years old, 12 years old, 13 years old, 14 years old, 15 years old, 16 years old, 17 years old, 18 years old or older). In some embodiments, administration of the anti-human CD3 antibodies such as teplizumab delay the onset of Stage 3 Type 1 diabetes. In some embodiments, the subject has Stage 2 type 1 diabetes. In some embodiments, the subject that has dysglycemia without overt hyperglycemia has at least two positive pancreatic islet cell autoantibodies. See ADA and ISPAD guidelines which define classification and diagnosis of Stage 2 T1D in American Diabetes Association Professional Practice Committee- Classification and Diagnosis of Diabetes: Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes-2022. Diabetes Care. 2022 Jan l;45(Suppl 1):S 17-S38); and in Besser REJ, Bell KJ, Couper JJ, Ziegler AG, Wherrett DK, Knip M, Speake C, Casteels K, Driscoll KA, Jacobsen L, Craig ME, Haller MJ. ISPAD clinical practice consensus guidelines 2022: Stages of type 1 diabetes in children and adolescents. Pediatr Diabetes. 2022 Sep 30). In some embodiments, the subject has abnormal glucose tolerance on oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). In some embodiments, the subject in need thereof meets criteria for a diagnosis of Stage 2 type 1 diabetes does not have type 2 diabetes. In some embodiments, the methods provided herein comprise confirming that the subject who has dysglycemia without overt hyperglycemia has Stage 2 type 1 diabetes by documenting at least two positive pancreatic islet cell autoantibodies. In some embodiments, the methods provided herein further comprise confirming that the subject does not have type 2 diabetes. In some embodiments, subjects having Stage 2 type 1 diabetes have both of the following:
1. Two or more of the following pancreatic islet autoantibodies:
Glutamic acid decarboxylase 65 (GAD) autoantibodies
Insulin autoantibody (IAA)
Insulinoma-associated antigen 2 autoantibody (IA-2A)
Zinc transporter 8 autoantibody (ZnT8A)
Islet cell autoantibody (ICA)
2. Dysglycemia (e g. on oral glucose tolerance testing).
[0094] In some embodiments, Stage 2 type 1 diabetes can be diagnosed in other ways known to those skilled in the art.

[00121] In some embodiments in which escalating doses are administered for the first days of the dosing regimen, the dose on day 1 of the regimen is about 5-150 pg/m2/day, preferably about 55-150 pg/m2/day, for example about 60-100 pg/m2/day and escalates to the daily dose as recited immediately above by day 3, 4, 5, 6 or 7. In some embodiments, on day 1, the subject is administered a dose of approximately 60 pg/m2/day, on day 2 approximately 125 pg/m2/day, on day 3 approximately 250 pg/m2/day, on day 4 approximately 500 pg/m2/day and on subsequent days of the regimen (e.g., days 5-14) 1,000 pg/m2/day. In some embodiments, on day 1, the subject is administered a dose of approximately 60 pg/m2/day, on day 2 approximately 125 pg/m2/day, on day 3 approximately 250 pg/m2/day, on day 4 approximately 500 pg/m2/day and on subsequent days of the regimen (e.g., days 5-14) 1,030 pg/m2/day. In some embodiments, on day 1, the subject is administered a dose of approximately 100 pg/m2/day, on day 2 approximately 425 pg/m2/day, on day 3 approximately 850 pg/m2/day, on day 4 approximately 850 ug/m2/day and on subsequent days of the regimen (e.g., days 5-14) 1,000 pg/m2/day. In some embodiments, on day 1, the subject is administered a dose of approximately 60 pg/m2/day, on day 2 approximately 125 pg/m2/day, on day 3 approximately 250 pg/m2/day, on day 4 approximately 500 pg/m2/day and on subsequent days of the regimen (e.g., days 5-14) 1,070 pg/m2/day.
[00122] In some embodiments, the initial dose is 1/4, to 1/2, to equal to the daily dose at the end of the regimen but is administered in portions at intervals of 6, 8, 10 or 12 hours. For example, a 13 pg/kg/day dose is administered in four doses of 3-4 pg/kg at intervals of 6 hours to reduce the level of cytokine release caused by administration of the antibody. In some embodiments, to reduce the possibility of cytokine release and other adverse effects, the first 1, 2, 3, or 4 doses or all the doses in the regimen are administered more slowly by intravenous administration. For example, a dose of 51 pg/m2/day may be administered over about 5 minutes, about 15 minutes, about 30 minutes, about 45 minutes, about 1 hour, about 2 hours, about 4 hours, about 6 hours, about 8 hours, about 10 hours, about 12 hours, about 14 hours, about 16 hours, about 18 hours, about 20 hours, and about 22 hours. In some embodiments, the dose is administered by slow infusion over a period of, e.g., 20 to 24 hours. In some embodiments, the dose is infused in a pump, preferably increasing the concentration of antibody administered as the infusion progresses.
[00123] In some embodiments, a set fraction of the doses for, for example, the 60 pg nr/day to 1000 pg/nr/dav or the 65 pg m2/day to 1030 pg/m2/day regimen described above is administered in escalating doses. In some embodiments, the fraction is 1/10, 1/4, 1/3, 1/2, 2/3 or 3/4 of the daily doses of the regimens described above.
[00124] In some embodiments, the anti-CD3 antibody such as teplizumab, otelixizumab or foralumab, is not administered by daily doses over a number of days, but is rather administered by infusion in an uninterrupted manner over a minimum of 30 minutes, for example 30 minutes, 1 hours, 2 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours, 5 hours, 6 hours, 7 hours, 8 hours, 9 hours, 10 hours, 12 hours, 15 hours, 18 hours, 20 hours, 24 hours, 30 hours or 36 hours. The infusion may be constant or may start out at a lower dosage for, for example, the first 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours, 5 hours, 6 hours, 7 hours or 8 hours of the infusion and then increase to a higher dosage thereafter. Over the course of the infusion, the patient receives a dose equal to the amount administered in the 5 to 20-day regimens set forth above (for example the 14-day regimen set forth above). For example, a cumulative dose of approximately or greater than 9500 pg/m2, 10000 pg/m2, 10500 pg/m2, 11000 pg/m2, 11500 pg/m2, 12000 pg/m2, 12500 pg/m2, 13000 pg/m2, 13500 pg/m2 or 14000 pg/m2 is administered by infusion to the subject in need thereof. For example, a cumulative dose of teplizumab of approximately or greater than 11,240 pg/m2 is administered by infusion to the subject in need thereof over a period of at least 30 minutes. In particular, the speed and duration of the infusion is designed to minimize the level of free anti- CD3 antibody such as teplizumab, otelixizumab or foralumab in the subject after administration. In some embodiments, the level of free anti-CD3 antibody such as teplizumab should not exceed 200 ng/ml free antibody. In addition, the infusion is designed to achieve a combined T cell receptor coating and modulation of at least 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 95% or of 100%.
[00125] In some embodiments, the subject in need thereof is administered prior to the administering of the course IV infusion (for example the 14-day s course IV infusion) on each of days 1-5 an effective amount of pain reliever (such as a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), acetaminophen), an antihistamine, an antiemetic or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the pain reliever (such as a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), acetaminophen), an antihistamine, an antiemetic or a combination thereof can be administered on each of days 1-5, 1-6, 1-7, 1-8, 1-9, 1-10, 1-11, 1-12, 1-13, 1-14 or during the duration of the treatment with the anti-CD3 antibodies. In some embodiments, the NSAID, acetaminophen, antihistamine, antiemetic or combination thereof is administered orally. In some embodiments, the NSAID, acetaminophen, antihistamine, antiemetic or combination thereof is administered intravenously. In some embodiments, antipyretics, antihistamines and/or antiemetics are administered to the subject in need thereof to mitigate cytokine release syndrome. In some embodiments, the liver enzymes are monitored and treatment with the anti-CD3 antibodies is discontinued or paused in subjects developing elevated ALT or AST more than 5 times the upper limit of normal.
[00126] In some embodiments, the anti-CD3 antibody such as teplizumab, otelixizumab or foralumab is administered chronically to treat, prevent, or slow or delay the onset or progression, or ameliorate, mitigate, relieve, lighten, postpone, stop or halt one or more symptoms of type 1 diabetes. For example, in some embodiments, a low dose of the anti-CD3 antibody such as teplizumab is administered once a month, twice a month, three times per month, once a week or even more frequently either as an alternative to the 6 to I4-day dosage regimen discussed above or after administration of such a regimen to enhance or maintain its effect. Such a low dose may be anywhere from about 1 pg/m2 to about 100 pg/m2. such as approximately 5 pg/m2. 10 pg/m2, 15 pg/m2, 20 pg/m2, 25 pg/m2, 30 pg/m2, 35 pg/m2, 40 pg/m2, 45 pg/m2, 50 pg/m2, 55 pg/m2, 60 pg/m2, 65 pg/m2, 70 pg/m2, 75 pg/m2, 80 pg/m2, 85 pg/m2, 90 pg/m2, 95 pg/m2 or 100 pg/m2.
[00127] In some embodiments, the anti-CD3 antibody such as teplizumab, otelixizumab or foralumab is administered by infusion in medical facilities, outpatient infusion centers. Yet in other embodiments, the anti-CD3 antibody such as teplizumab, otelixizumab or foralumab is administered by infusion in a home setting. Home infusion therapy involves the administration of the therapeutic agents, for example, anti-CD3 antibody using intravenous, or subcutaneous routes, in the patient's home rather than in a physician's office or hospital. Infusion therapies in the home can be administered by a home health care worker or by a patient himself. In some embodiments, a health care worker having some training in the operation of infusion equipment and the administration of anti-CD3 antibody can provide the patient with self-administration training and all the necessary equipment and/or supplies needed for the administration.
[00128] In some embodiments, the subject may be re-dosed at some time subsequent to administration of the anti-CD3 antibody such as teplizumab, otelixizumab or foralumab dosing regimen, for example, based upon one or more physiological parameters or may be done as a mater of course. Such redosing may be administered and/or the need for such redosing evaluated 2 months, 4 months, 6 months, 8 months, 9 months, 1 year, 15 months, 18 months, 2 years, 30 months or 3 years after administration of a dosing regimen and may include administering a course of treatment every 6 months, 9 months, 1 year, 15 months, 18 months, 2 years, 30 months or 3 years indefinitely.

In some embodiments, the method comprises administering on at least each of days 1-5, and prior to the administering of the 14- day course IV infusion, an effective amount of a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), acetaminophen, an antihistamine, an anti emetic or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the method comprises administering orally the NSAID, acetaminophen, antihistamine, antiemetic or combination thereof. In some embodiments, the method comprises administering the 14-day course IV infusion once daily for 14 consecutive days over a period of at least 30 minutes. [00149] Aspects of the disclosure relate to a method of prognosing responsiveness of an anti- CD3 antibody in preventing or delaying onset of type 1 diabetes (T1D), the method comprising administering a prophylactically effective amount of an anti-CD3 antibody to a non-diabetic subject who is at risk of T1D, wherein the prophylactically effective amount has a cumulative dose of about 10,500 pg/m2 to about 14,000 pg/m2; and determining C-peptide area under the curve (AUC): glucose AUC ratio, wherein an increase in the ratio indicates responsiveness to the anti-CD3 antibody and/or non-progression to clinical T1D.
[00150] Aspects of the disclosure relate to an anti-CD3 antibody for use in a method of preventing or delaying onset of clinical type 1 diabetes (T1D), comprising: administering a prophylactically effective amount of an anti-CD3 antibody to a non-diabetic subject who is at risk of T1D, wherein the prophylactically effective amount has a cumulative dose of about 10,500 pg/m2 to about 14,000 pg/m2.
[00151] Aspects of the disclosure relate to a teplizumab composition for use in a method of delaying onset of Stage 3 type 1 diabetes (T1D), comprising administering to a subject in need thereof who has a diagnosis of stage 2 T1D a 14-day course IV infusion at about 65 pg/m2 on day 1, about 125 pg/m2 on day 2, about 250 pg/m2 on day 3, and about 500 pg/m2 on day 4, and a dose of about 1,030 pg/m2 on each of days 5-14.
EXAMPLES
Example 1:
[00152] Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease characterized by T-cell mediated destruction of insulin producing beta cells within the pancreatic islets of Langerhans. Longitudinal observational studies over more than 30 years have described the progression of the autoimmune disease from the first appearance of autoantibodies until beta cell function is critically impaired and the clinical diagnosis, often with ketoacidosis, occurs (7-5). T1D is associated with a need for lifelong exogenous insulin administration for survival, increased morbidity and mortality due to immediate (e.g. hypoglycemia) and long-term complications (e.g. vascular, renal, and eye disease), and reduced life-span, life impairments, and considerable health-care-related costs (6-9). Thus, approaches to prevent progression to clinical T1D before irremediable beta cell destruction and insulin deficiency, are of paramount importance.
[00153] Changes in beta cell function precede the clinical diagnosis of T1 D and have been studied in natural history cohorts of individuals who are identified as at-risk for the disease based on the presence of islet autoantibodies (10-12). Some studies suggest an ongoing and intermittently progressive decline in beta cell function, that begins years before clinical diagnosis at a time when glucose tolerance is normal. During this period there are signs of ongoing autoimmunity: Based on the findings of the natural history, individuals with two or more islet autoantibodies have been classified as stages of T1D, with further specification according to the level of metabolic dy sfunction: Stage 1 prior to glucose abnormalities, Stage 2 with dysglycemia during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), and Stage 3 at clinical presentation with hyperglycemia (2, 13, 14). However, the relationships between changes in beta cell function and clinical disease remain poorly defined. It is known, for example, that glucose tolerance, defined through responses to an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), may fluctuate between abnormal and normal values within an individual who is at risk (15, 16). In addition, OGTT glucose tolerance classifications used to designate a clinical diagnosis, and beta cell function, measured by C-peptide responses to a metabolic challenge, may not be closely related and at diagnosis using an OGTT, many individuals have clinically meaningful C-peptide responses (15-18).
[00154] The following are dosing regimens matching AUCinf, Cmax and Ctroughis (trough concentration prior to Day 14 dosing) exposure parameters of the reference regimen (Herold 14- day regimen used in Protege and TN- 10 studies, Herold et al NEJM 2019).
[00155] Individual (conditional) PK simulations were performed using Provention Bio Model 363 (Regimen A, B and C), Model 372 (Regimen D) and individual model parameters from the corresponding arms of the PROTECT Phase 3 study of teplizumab in newly-diagnosed T1D patients.
[00156] Typical (average) simulations for comparison of exposure values were also performed.
[00157] More than 30 regimens based on the Herold 14-day regimen or PROTECT regimen were simulated and were compared to the reference regimen. Alternative dosage regimens are presented in Table 1.
Table 1 Regimens Used in Clinical Studies and Proposed Alternative Regimens for anti-CD3 antibody
Figure imgf000041_0001
Figure imgf000042_0001
Dosing in pg/m2 via 30-minute infusion
[00158] Each of these regimens includes a 4-day ramp-up followed by 10 consecutive days of maintenance dosing, with an infusion duration of 30 minutes. As in previous T1D regimens, the ramp-up is important to avoid the occurrence of acute events such as those related to cytokine release.
• Regimen A: Incorporates the backbone of the TN-10 (Herold 14-day) 4-day ramp-up and maintenance doses, with an approximate 18-20% upward adjustment for each daily dose. This regimen meets the bioequivalence criteria for the three PK parameters under both conditional and typical (average) simulations with the exception that the average (typical) simulation ratio for CtroughB is slightly less than 0.80 (0.779). (Table 2). The cumulative dose for this regimen is 10,935 pg/m2 (approximately 21% higher compared to the Herold 14-day regimen). o Day 1: 60 pg/m2 o Day 2: 125 pg/m2 o Day 3: 250 pg/m2 o Day 4: 500 pg/m2 o Days 5-14: 1000 pg/m2 • Regimen B: Incorporates the backbone of the TN-10 (Herold 14-day) regimen and an approximate 18-25% upward adjustment for each daily dose; this has a similar 4-day ramp- up as in Regimen A, but the maintenance dose is 1030 pg/m2. This regimen meets all bioequivalence criteria for AUCinf, Cmax and Ctroughis under both the conditional and typical (average) simulations (Table 2). The cumulative dose for this regimen is 11,235 pg/m2 (approximately 24% higher compared to the Herold 14-day regimen). o Day 1: 60 pg/m2 o Day 2: 125 pg/m2 o Day 3: 250 pg/m2 o Day 4: 500 pg/m2 o Days 5-14: 1030 pg/m2
• Regimen D: Incorporates the backbone of the TN-10 (Herold 14-day) regimen and an approximate 18-25% upward adjustment for each daily dose; this has a similar 4-day ramp- up as in Regimen A, but the Day 1 dose is 65 pg/m2 and the maintenance dose is 1030 pg/m2. This regimen meets all bioequivalence criteria for AUCinf, Cmax and Ctroughi3 under both the conditional and typical (average) simulations (Table 2). The cumulative dose for this regimen is 11,240 pg/m2 (approximately 24% higher compared to the Herold 14-day regimen). o Day 1: 65 pg/m2 o Day 2: 125 pg/m2 o Day 3: 250 pg/m2 o Day 4: 500 pg/m2 o Days 5-14: 1030 pg/m2
• Regimen C : Incorporates the backbone of the PROTECT 12-day regimen with a 2-day ramp- up, with minor adjustment for the Day 1 dose from 106 pg/m2 to 100 pg/m2 to simplify dose calculations and preparations; the two doses of 850 pg/m2 on Day 3 and Day 4 replicate the PROTECT regimen before the administration of the maintenance dose of 1000 pg/m2. This regimen meets 80-125% bioequivalence criteria for AUCinf, Cmax and Ctroughia under both the conditional and typical (average) simulations (Table 2). The cumulative dose for this regimen is 12,225 pg/m2 (approximately 35% higher compared to the Herold 14-day regimen). o Day 1: 100 pg/m2 o Day 2: 425 pg/m2 o Day 3: 850 pg/m2 o Day 4: 850 pg/m2 o Days 5-14: 1000 pg/m2

Typical simulations performed using median BSA and weight of subjects in the PROTECT study and no anti-drug antibodies (ADA)
[00159] A comparison of the distribution of exposures (AUCinf, Cmax and Ctroughts) for the reference regimen (Herold 14-day) and the anti-CD3 antibody exposures predicted for the alternative regimens are shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 5. A comparison of the distribution of exposures (AUCinf, Cmax and Ctroughis) for the Protege and TN-10 regimen (Herold 14-day) and the anti-CD3 antibody exposures predicted for the alternative regimens are shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 6. Safety considerations
[00160] These regimens are predicted not to result in additional safety findings. The predicted Cmax and Ctrough during each day of the 14-day course for the alternative regimens are shown in FIG. 3 (Regimens A and B), FIG. 4 (Regimen C) and FIG. 7 (Regimen D) alongside the values from the historical clinical trials. The Cmax and Ctrough values for Regimens A and B do not exceed those observed in Protege or TN 10 using the Herold 14-day regimen. The Cmax and Ctrough values for Regimen C do not exceed those observed in the PROTECT 12-day regimen.
[00161] Additionally, we evaluated the safety profile of patients in the Protege and TN-10 studies who have AUCinr greater than and less than or equal to 6000 ng*day/mL. This value represents approximately the geometric mean exposure for the proposed alternative dosing regimens (Table 3). As shown in Table 4 the safety profile based on AEs reported in at least 5% of patients appear comparable between the subset of patients w ith AUC >6000 ng*day/mL and those with <6000 ng*day/mL.

[00162] Safety information for the precursor product to teplizumab, hOKT3yl (Ala-Ala), is available for non-TID patients, including renal transplant (Woodie 1999), islet transplant (Hering 2004) and psoriatic arthritis (Utset 2002) patients. Total cumulative doses evaluated over a 10 consecutive day treatment period included 76 mg, 46 mg and 40 mg for renal transplant, islet transplant and psoriatic arthritis patients, respectively. The safety events were similar to those observed in T1D patients who received an average total cumulative dose of ~18- 20 mg over a 12-14-day treatment period.

Example 4: Dosage and Administration [00165] The teplizumab compositions and methods provided herein are indicated to delay the onset of Stage 3 type 1 diabetes in adults and pediatric patients 8 years of age and older with Stage 2 type 1 diabetes.
[00166] Teplizumab-mzwv (also referred herein as Teplizumab) is a CD3-directed monoclonal antibody (humanized IgGl kappa) that has a molecular weight of approximately 150 kilodalton (kDa) and is expressed from a recombinant Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell line.
[00167] Teplizumab injection is supplied as a sterile, preservative-free, clear and colorless solution in a 2 mg/2 mL (1 mg/mL) single-dose vial for intravenous use. Each mL contains 1 mg of teplizumab-mzwv, dibasic sodium phosphate (0.26 mg), monobasic sodium phosphate (0.98 mg), polysorbate 80 (0.05 mg), sodium chloride (8.78 mg), and water for injection. The pH is 6.1.
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
[00168] Mechanism of Action
[00169] Teplizumab-mzwv binds to CD3 (a cell surface antigen present on T lymphocytes) and delays the onset of Stage 3 type 1 diabetes in adults and pediatric patients aged 8 years and older with Stage 2 type 1 diabetes. The mechanism may involve partial agonistic signaling and deactivation of pancreatic beta cell auto-reactive T lymphocytes. Teplizumab-mzwv leads to an increase in the proportion of regulatory T cells and of exhausted CD8+ T cells in peripheral blood.
[00170] Pharmacodynamics
[00171] Clinical studies have shown that teplizumab-mzwv binds to CD3 molecules on the surface of both CD4+ and CD8+ T cells during treatment, with internalization of the teplizumab- mzwv/CD3 complex from the surface of T cells. Pharmacodynamic effects include lymphopenia in the absence of depletion of T cells with a nadir on the 5th day of dosing, during a 14-day course of teplizumab-mzwv treatment. Teplizumab-mzwv exposure-response relationship and time course of pharmacodynamic response for the safety and effectiveness of teplizumab-mzwv have not been fully characterized.
[00172] Pharmacokinetics
[00173] Steady state concentrations of teplizumab-mzwv are not expected to be achieved during the 14-day course of teplizumab. [00174] Distribution
[00175] The central volume of distribution (Vd) of teplizumab-mzwv was 2.27 L in a 60 kg subject.
[00176] Elimination
[00177] Teplizumab-mzwv showed saturable binding and elimination. The mean (SD) terminal elimination half-life and clearance of teplizumab-mzwv are 4.5 (0.2) days and 2.7 (0.8) L/day in a 60 kg subject, respectively.
[00178] Metabolism
[00179] Teplizumab-mzwv is expected to be metabolized into small peptides by catabolic pathways.
[00180] Specific Populations
[00181] No clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of teplizumab-mzwv were observed based on age (8 to 35 years old), biologic sex or racial groups (White, Asians).
[00182] Body Weight
[00183] BSA-based dosing normalizes the exposure to teplizumab-mzwv across body weight.
[00184] Immunogenicity
[00185] The observed incidence of anti-drug antibodies is highly dependent on the sensitivity and specificity of the assay. Differences in assay methods preclude meaningful comparisons of the incidence of anti-drug antibodies in the studies described below with the incidence of antidrug antibodies in other studies, including those of teplizumab-mzwv or of other teplizumab products.
[00186] In the placebo- controlled study in patients aged 8 years of age and older with Stage 2 type 1 diabetes (Study TN-10), approximately 59% of teplizumab-treated patients developed anti-teplizumab-mzwv antibodies, 46% of whom developed neutralizing antibodies. There is insufficient information to characterize the effects of ADA on pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics or effectiveness of teplizumab-mzwv. There was a higher incidence of rash in teplizumab-treated patients who developed anti-tephzumab-mzwv antibodies compared to those who did not develop anti-tephzumab-mzwv antibodies.
[00187] Patient Selection [00188] Select adult patients and pediatric patients 8 years of age and older for TZIELD treatment who have a diagnosis of Stage 2 type 1 diabetes.
[00189] Confirm Stage 2 type 1 diabetes by documenting at least two positive pancreatic islet cell autoantibodies (FDA-authorized tests for pancreatic islet cell autoantibodies are recommended) in those who have dysglycemia without overt hyperglycemia. In patients who meet criteria for a diagnosis of Stage 2 type 1 diabetes, ensure the clinical history of the patient does not suggest type 2 diabetes.
[00190] Administration Instructions and Recommended Dosage
[00191] Dilute prior to use:
• Each vial is intended for single-dose only. Prepare a: Sterile glass vial with 18 mL of 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection or Polyvinylchloride (PVC) infusion bag with 18 mL of 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection.
• Remove 2 mL of teplizumab from the vial and slowly add to the 18 mL of 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection. Mix gently by slowly inverting the vial or rocking the infusion bag. The resulting 20 mL diluted solution contains 100 mcg/mL of teplizumab-mzwv.
• Using an appropriately sized syringe (e g., 5 mL), withdraw the volume of diluted solution required on that day for the calculated dose from the 100 mcg/mL solution.
• Slowly add contents of the syringe containing teplizumab dose to a 25 mL 0.9% sodium chloride injection PVC infusion bag. Gently rock the infusion bag to ensure that the solution mixes sufficiently. Do not shake.
• Discard unused portion of remaining diluted teplizumab solution in the sterile glass vial or PVC infusion bag.
• Start the infusion of teplizumab within 2 hours of preparation. If not used immediately, store the diluted solution at room temperature [15°C to 30°C (59°F to 86°F)] and complete infusion within 4 hours of the start of preparation. Discard the diluted solution if not administered within 4 hours of preparation.
[00192] Premedicate prior to infusion for the first 5 days of dosing with oral medications including: (1) a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) or acetaminophen, (2) an antihistamine, and/or (3) an antiemetic. Administer additional doses of premedication if needed.
[00193] Administer by intravenous infusion (over a minimum of 30 minutes) once daily for 14 consecutive days. [00194] The recommended dosage for pediatrics and adult patients ages 8 years and older, based on body surface area (BSA) is described in the Table below.
