The program to demonstrate its biosimilarity consisted of a phase 1 pharmacokinetic study in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS)6 and a phase 3 study evaluating efficacy in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).7 Both were randomized, double-blinded, multinational trials and provided data up to 30 weeks of treatment.6, 7 Subsequently, data up to 54 weeks8–10 with a following open-label 48-week extension, in which patients initially receiving reference infliximab were switched to CT-P13, have been published.11, 12 These studies have demonstrated pharmacokinetic equivalence and clinical efficacy in both AS and RA6, 7 up to 102 weeks and in patients switched from infliximab to CT-P1311, 12. The development of antidrug antibodies (ADA) was similar in CT-P13 and infliximab in both trials.7, 12 References: Danese, S., Vuitton, L., Peyrin-Biroulet, L., Biologic agents for IBD: Practical insights (2015) Nat Rev Gastroenterol Hepatol, 12, pp. 537-545; Annese, V., Duricova, D., Gower-Rousseau, C., Impact of new treatments on hospitalisation, surgery, infection, and mortality in IBD: A focus paper by the epidemiology committee of ECCO (2016) J Crohns Colitis, 10, pp. 216-225; Van Der Valk, M.E., Mangen, M.J., Leenders, M., Healthcare costs of inflammatory bowel disease have shifted from hospitalisation and surgery towards anti-tnfα therapy: Results from the COIN study (2014) Gut, 63, pp. 72-79; Cohen, R.D., Thomas, T., Economics of the use of biologics in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (2006) Gastroenterol Clin North Am, 35, pp. 867-882; Zheng, M.K., Shih, D.Q., Chen, G.C., Insights on the use of biosimilars in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (2017) World J Gastroenterol, 23, pp. 1932-1943; Park, W., Hrycaj, P., Jeka, S., A randomised, double-blind, multicenter, parallel-group, prospective study comparing the pharmacokinetics, safety, and efficacy of CT-P13 and innovator infliximab in patients with ankylosing spondylitis: The PLANETAS study (2013) Ann Rheum Dis, 72, pp. 1605-1612; Yoo, D.H., Hrycaj, P., Miranda, P., A randomised, double-blind, parallel-group study to demonstrate equivalence in efficacy and safety of CT-P13 compared with innovator infliximab when coadministered with methotrexate in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis: The PLANETRA study (2013) Ann Rheum Dis, 72, pp. 1613-1620; Park, W., Yoo, D.H., Miranda, P., Efficacy and safety of switching from reference infliximab to CT-P13 compared with maintenance of CT-P13 in ankylosing spondylitis: 102-week data from the PLANETAS extension study (2017) Ann Rheum Dis, 76, pp. 346-354. , pii: annrheumdis-2015-208783; Yoo, D.H., Racewicz, A., Brzezicki, J., A phase III randomized study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CT-P13 compared with reference infliximab in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis: 54-week results from the PLANETRA study (2016) Arthritis Res Ther, 18, p. 82; Yoo, D., Yagensky, A., Toncheva, A., Impact of CT-P13 and originator infliximab treatment on quality of life derived from the Health Assessment Questionnaire (AQ) and Short-Form 36 (SF- 36) from a randomized, double-blind trial in patients with active RA (2013) ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting, , abstract 2392.

N2 - Background: We report a prospective, nationwide cohort evaluating the safety and effectiveness of CT-P13. Methods: A structured database was used to record serious adverse events (SAEs), clinical remission/response, inflammatory biomarkers (CRP and calprotectin), and endoscopic findings. Results: Eight hundred ten patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) (452 Crohn's disease [CD]) were enrolled. Four hundred fifty-nine patients were naïve to anti-TNFα (group A), 196 had a previous exposure (group B), and the remaining 155 were switched to CT-P13 (group C). All patients were included in the safety evaluation with a mean follow-up of 345 ± 215 days and a total number of 6501 infusions. One hundred fifty-four SAEs were reported (19%), leading to cessation of the biosimilar in 103 subjects (12.7%). Infusion reactions were 71, leading to cessation of the biosimilar in 53 subjects (6.5%), being significantly more frequent in patients pre-exposed to anti-TNFα (P = 0.017). The efficacy of therapy was calculated in 754 IBD patients, with a mean follow-up of 329 ± 202 days. Forty-eight patients had a primary failure (6.4%), and 188 (25.6%) lost response during follow-up. Six hundred twenty-eight (364 CD) and 360 IBD patients (222 CD) completed the follow-up at 6 and 12 months, respectively. At 12 months, patients without loss of response were 71%, 64%. and 82% in groups A, B, and C, respectively (log rank P = 0.01). Clinical/endoscopic scores and inflammatory biomarkers dropped significantly in CD and UC patients (P = 0.01 and P <0.0001) compared with baseline. Conclusions: In this large prospective cohort, no further signals of difference in safety and effectiveness of CT-P13 in IBD has been observed. © 2018 Crohn's & Colitis Foundation.
