Résumé

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a major public health burden. While knee and hip joints are most commonly affected, the glenohumoral (shoulder) joint is also frequently involved. We evaluated the pharmacokinetics and safety/tolerability of triamcinolone acetonide extended-release (TA-ER) and triamcinolone acetonide crystalline suspension (TAcs) in patients with shoulder OA. In this phase 2, randomized, open-label, single-dose study (NCT03382262), adults with moderately-to-severely symptomatic shoulder OA for ≥ 6 months randomly received a single ultrasound-guided intra-articular (IA) injection of TA-ER 32 mg or TAcs 40 mg. Safety was evaluated throughout 12 weeks post-injection; blood samples for pharmacokinetic evaluations were collected pre-injection and through Day 85 post-injection. Among 25 randomized patients, 12 received TA-ER and 13 received TAcs. Most patients were female (60%), and all had moderate (72%) or severe (28%) shoulder OA. Adverse events (AEs) were reported by four (33%) patients following TA-ER and three (23%) following TAcs injection. No AE was serious or led to study discontinuation. Systemic exposure following TAcs was approximately 1.5-fold higher than that following TA-ER injection (geometric mean [GM] AUC These pharmacokinetic data confirm protracted release of TA from TA-ER following IA injection in patients with shoulder OA. Lower peak and systemic TA exposure following TA-ER suggests TA-ER could potentially confer an improved systemic safety profile over TAcs. NCT03382262 (December 22, 2017 retrospectively registered).

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES OBJECTIVE
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a major public health burden. While knee and hip joints are most commonly affected, the glenohumoral (shoulder) joint is also frequently involved. We evaluated the pharmacokinetics and safety/tolerability of triamcinolone acetonide extended-release (TA-ER) and triamcinolone acetonide crystalline suspension (TAcs) in patients with shoulder OA.
METHODS METHODS
In this phase 2, randomized, open-label, single-dose study (NCT03382262), adults with moderately-to-severely symptomatic shoulder OA for ≥ 6 months randomly received a single ultrasound-guided intra-articular (IA) injection of TA-ER 32 mg or TAcs 40 mg. Safety was evaluated throughout 12 weeks post-injection; blood samples for pharmacokinetic evaluations were collected pre-injection and through Day 85 post-injection.
RESULTS RESULTS
Among 25 randomized patients, 12 received TA-ER and 13 received TAcs. Most patients were female (60%), and all had moderate (72%) or severe (28%) shoulder OA. Adverse events (AEs) were reported by four (33%) patients following TA-ER and three (23%) following TAcs injection. No AE was serious or led to study discontinuation. Systemic exposure following TAcs was approximately 1.5-fold higher than that following TA-ER injection (geometric mean [GM] AUC
CONCLUSION CONCLUSIONS
These pharmacokinetic data confirm protracted release of TA from TA-ER following IA injection in patients with shoulder OA. Lower peak and systemic TA exposure following TA-ER suggests TA-ER could potentially confer an improved systemic safety profile over TAcs.
TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER BACKGROUND
NCT03382262 (December 22, 2017 retrospectively registered).
