Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Duration of Severe Neutropenia (DSN) in Cycle 1
Day 1 and daily on Days 4-15 in Cycle 1 (each cycle = 21 days)

DSN was defined as the number of days of severe neutropenia (absolute neutrophil count \[ANC\] \<0.5×10\^9 per liter \[L\]) from the first occurrence of ANC below the threshold.

Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
From first dose of study drug to 35 days after the last dose of the study drug (Up to approximately 16 months)

An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical investigation participant, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. A TEAE is any AE that occurs from the first dose of the study drug until 35 days after the last dose of study drug, or on the day a new/additional chemotherapy regimen, or on the day another granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) is administered.

Time to Recovery of Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) From Nadir to ≥1.5×10^9/L in Cycle 1
Cycle 1 is 21 days

Time to ANC Recovery is defined as the time from chemotherapy administration until the patient's ANC increases to ≥1.5×10\^9/liter (L) after the expected nadir.

Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax)
Up to 42 days

PK samples will be collected at predetermined time intervals and Peak Concentration is measured at highest value among all concentrations.

Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC)
Up to 42 days

PK samples will be collected at predetermined time intervals. AUC is calculated in the plot of plasma concentration versus time curve

Secondary Endpoints

Time to Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) Recovery in Cycle 1
Day 1 and daily on Days 4-15 in Cycle 1 (each cycle = 21 days)
Depth of ANC Nadir in Cycle 1
Day 1 and daily on Days 4-15 in Cycle 1 (each cycle = 21 days)

Frequently asked questions about Eflapegrastim

What is Eflapegrastim used for?

Eflapegrastim is being studied for neutropenia in patients receiving myelosuppressive chemotherapy, including those with solid tumors, lymphomas, and breast cancer. It is also being evaluated in pediatric patients with solid tumors or lymphomas. It is an investigational therapy and has not been approved for any indication.

What does Eflapegrastim target?

Eflapegrastim targets CSF3R, the colony stimulating factor 3 receptor. It acts as an agonist at this receptor, which is the same target as endogenous granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF). This receptor is involved in the production and differentiation of neutrophils.

Who is developing Eflapegrastim?

Eflapegrastim is being developed by Assertio Holdings, Inc., which trades under the ticker ASRT. The company is responsible for the clinical development program of this investigational agent.

What phase is Eflapegrastim in?

Eflapegrastim is in Phase 1 clinical development according to the overall program status. One completed Phase 1 trial and one recruiting Phase 2 trial are listed. It remains investigational and has not been approved by the FDA or any regulatory agency.

What clinical trials is Eflapegrastim in?

Eflapegrastim has been studied in two registered clinical trials. NCT04187898 was a completed Phase 1 study in breast cancer patients with neutropenia. NCT04570423 is a recruiting Phase 2 study evaluating safety and pharmacokinetics in pediatric participants with solid tumors or lymphomas receiving myelosuppressive chemotherapy.
