A Phase IIA Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study of LGD-4665 in Patients With Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP) With an Open Label Extension

The purpose of this study is to assess the ability of LGD-4665 given daily by mouth to increase platelet counts in the treatment of patients with ITP (immune thrombocytopenic purpura). LGD-4665 increased platelet counts safely and tolerably compared to placebo in healthy volunteers. This study will examine the safety, tolerability and efficacy of 7.5 mg capsules of LGD-4665 to increase platelets compared to placebo, randomized 2:1, during blinded treatment for 6 weeks. Evaluation of platelet counts, bleeding scores and safety parameters will be done weekly. All patients are eligible to continue on active, open LGD-4665 treatment for an additional 12 weeks with optimal adjustment of dose for each patient.

OBJECTIVE:

To determine whether specific c-Mpl mutations might respond to thrombopoietin receptor agonists.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:

We created cell line models of type II c-Mpl mutations identified in congenital amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia. We selected F104S c-Mpl for further study because it exhibited surface expression of the receptor. We measured proliferation of cell lines expressing wild-type or F104S c-Mpl in response to thrombopoietin receptor agonists targeting the extracellular (m-AMP4) or transmembrane (LGD-4665) domains of the receptor by 1-methyltetrazole-5-thiol assay. We measured thrombopoietin binding to the mutant receptor using an in vitro thrombopoietin uptake assay and identified F104 as a potentially critical residue for the interaction between the receptor and its ligand by aligning thrombopoietin and erythropoietin receptors from multiple species.

RESULTS:

Cells expressing F104S c-Mpl proliferated in response to LGD-4665, but not thrombopoietin or m-AMP4. Compared to thrombopoietin, LGD-4665 stimulates signaling with delayed kinetics in both wild-type and F104S c-Mpl-expressing cells. Although F104S c-Mpl is expressed on the cell surface in our BaF3 cell line model, the mutant receptor does not bind thrombopoietin. Comparison to the erythropoietin receptor suggests that F104 engages in hydrogen-bonding interactions that are critical for binding to thrombopoietin.

CONCLUSIONS:

These findings suggest that a small subset of patients with congenital amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia might respond to treatment with thrombopoietin receptor agonists, but that responsiveness will depend on the type of mutation and agonist used. We postulate that F104 is critical for thrombopoietin binding. The kinetics of signaling in response to a transmembrane domain-binding agonist are delayed in comparison to thrombopoietin.
