2233. Efficacy and Symptom Resolution by Visit in Adults With Community-Acquired Bacterial Pneumonia (CABP) Treated With Lefamulin (LEF) or Moxifloxacin (MOX): Pooled Analysis of Lefamulin Evaluation Against Pneumonia (LEAP) 1 and LEAP 2 Study Results

BACKGROUND: Efficacy and safety of LEF were shown in 2 noninferiority trials (LEAP 1/2) vs. MOX in adults with CABP. We assessed the efficacy of LEF by visit based on a pooled analyses of LEAP 1/2 data. METHODS: In LEAP 1, PORT III–V patients (patients) received LEF 150 mg IV q12h for 5–7 days or MO...

Sumario:BACKGROUND: Efficacy and safety of LEF were shown in 2 noninferiority trials (LEAP 1/2) vs. MOX in adults with CABP. We assessed the efficacy of LEF by visit based on a pooled analyses of LEAP 1/2 data. METHODS: In LEAP 1, PORT III–V patients (patients) received LEF 150 mg IV q12h for 5–7 days or MOX 400 mg IV q24h for 7 days, with optional IV-to-oral switch (600 mg LEF q12h or 400 mg MOX q24h). In LEAP 2, PORT II–IV patients received oral LEF 600 mg q12h for 5 days or oral MOX 400 mg q24h for 7 days. Criteria for defining the FDA primary endpoint of early clinical response (ECR) at 96 ± 24 hours after first dose were applied to each visit through late follow-up (LFU; days 27–34) in the intent-to-treat (ITT; all randomized patients) population. Investigator assessment of clinical response (IACR) was examined at end of treatment (EOT; within 2 days after last dose), test-of-cure (TOC; 5–10 days after last dose; EMA primary endpoint), and LFU in the modified ITT (mITT; received ≥1 dose of study drug) and clinically evaluable (CE; met predefined evaluability criteria) populations. Results are presented by visit for pooled LEAP 1/2 data. RESULTS: 1289 ITT patients were randomized (LEF, n = 646; MOX, n = 643). Most patients in both groups achieved ECR at Day 3, with further increases through Day 7 and sustained efficacy through LFU (Fig 1). In mITT patients, IACR success rates at EOT/TOC/LFU were 87.1/85.0/83.2% with LEF and 88.1/87.1/86.1% with MOX; results were consistent in CE patients. The proportions of ITT patients with resolution of all baseline signs/symptoms of CABP increased similarly by visit in both treatment groups (Fig 2). Most patients did not achieve complete sign/symptom resolution until TOC, with fever generally being the first and cough the last to resolve. There was no apparent relationship between ECR and age, gender, renal status, SIRS, PORT, prior antibiotic use, baseline pathogens, typical/atypical pathogens, or mono/polymicrobial pathogens. The high percentage of patients at LFU with baseline symptom resolution suggests that symptom resolution was sustained. CONCLUSION: In this pooled analysis, efficacy results were similar by visit in the LEF and MOX groups, with high ECR rates maintained through LFU. LEF will provide a potential new effective systemic monotherapy alternative to fluoroquinolones for the empiric treatment of CABP.
