S1053 Week 48 Efficacy Of Guselkumab And Ustekinumab In Crohn’s Disease Based On Prior Response/Exposure To Biologic Therapy: Results From The GALAXI 2 and 3 Phase 3 Studies

Introduction: GALAXI 2 & 3 (NCT03466411) are identically designed 48-week (Wk), randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, placebo (PBO)- and ustekinumab (UST)-comparator, treat-through registrational trials assessing the efficacy and safety of therapy with guselkumab (GUS), a dual-acting IL-23p19 subunit inhibitor, in participants (pts) with moderately to severely active Crohn’s disease (CD). Wk48 comparisons of GUS and UST in the pooled GALAXI 2 & 3 dataset were previously reported. Here we explore the impact of biologic therapy exposure on GUS and UST efficacy for these same endpoints. Methods: Pts with inadequate response or intolerance to conventional therapies or biologic therapies (BIO-ir), active CD (CDAI 220–450 + mean daily SF >3 or AP >1), and SES-CD≥6 (≥4 for isolated ileal disease) were eligible. Randomization was stratified by CDAI score, SES-CD score, BIO-ir status, and corticosteroid use with pts assigned 2:2:2:1 to GUS 200mg IV every 4 weeks (x3)→100mg SC every 8 weeks, GUS 200mg IV every 4 weeks (x3)→200mg SC every 4 weeks, UST ∼6mg/kg IV (x1)→90mg SC every 8 weeks, or PBO. Pooled Wk48 analyses comparing GUS and UST (active comparator) in all pts were prespecified major secondary, multiplicity-controlled endpoints. Pooled analyses in the BIO-ir and BIO-naïve subgroups were prespecified but not controlled for multiple comparisons. Results: Across the pooled GALAXI 2 & 3 dataset, 52% (456/873) of pts randomly assigned to GUS or UST had prior history of BIO-ir and 42% (365/873) were BIO-naïve (6% [52/873] had prior exposure to biologics but no documented failure). At Wk48, in both the BIO-ir and BIO-naïve subgroups, both GUS dose groups demonstrated greater rates of endoscopic response, endoscopic remission, and the composite endpoints of clinical remission and endoscopic response and clinical remission and endoscopic remission (deep remission) compared with the UST group (Table 1). Rates of clinical remission at Wk48 in the BIO-ir subgroup were greater in both GUS dose groups compared to UST and similar in the BIO-naïve subgroup. Conclusion: Guselkumab was efficacious in pts with CD regardless of prior biologic exposure. In pooled analyses of the double-blind GALAXI 2 & 3 trials, both GUS doses demonstrated greater rates of efficacy versus UST across multiple endpoints in the BIO-naïve subgroup and the more refractory BIO-ir subgroup.

The stratification variables used are baseline CDAI score (≤300 or >300), baseline SES-CD score (≤12 or >12), BIO-ir status (Yes or No; this variable used only in analyses of the overall population), and baseline corticosteroid use (Yes or No). Population N values reflect the primary analysis set, defined as all randomized participants who received at least 1 (partial or complete) dose of study intervention and had a screening SES-CD score ≥6 (or ≥4 for participants with isolated ileal disease).Endpoint definitions: endoscopic response, ≥50% improvement from baseline in SES-CD or SES-CD ≤ 2; endoscopic remission, SES-CD ≤ 4 and a ≥2-point reduction from baseline and no subscore greater than 1 in any individual component; deep remission, clinical remission (CDAI < 150) and endoscopic remission (SES-CD ≤ 4 and a ≥2-point reduction from baseline and no subscore greater than 1 in any individual component). Participants with treatment failure or missing data were considered to not have met the endpoint.aAnti-TNF agents or vedolizumab.bParticipants assigned to GUS 200mg IV every 4 weeks (every 4 weeks) (x3)→100mg SC every 8 weeks.cParticipants assigned to GUS 200mg IV every 4 weeks (x3)→200mg SC every 4 weeks.dParticipants assigned to UST ∼6mg/kg IV (x1)→90mg SC every 8 weeks.
