Paltusotine is a once-daily, oral selective nonpeptide somatostatin receptor type 2 (SST2) agonist, which is in clinical development for the treatment of acromegaly. Maintenance of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) control and toleration was demonstrated in phase 2 studies evaluating paltusotine in biochemically controlled (IGF-1 ≤1xULN) [ACROBAT Evolve (NCT03792555)] and uncontrolled (1> IGF-1 ≤2.5xULN) [ACROBAT Edge (NCT03789656)] patients with acromegaly treated with stable long-acting octreotide or lanreotide. Patients in both parent studies were switched to oral paltusotine for up to 13 weeks. We hypothesized that continued paltusotine therapy would result in the long-term maintenance of IGF-1 control with acceptable toleration and safety. Subjects who completed ACROBAT Evolve or Edge were eligible to participate in ACROBAT Advance (NCT04261712), an ongoing single-arm, open-label 208-week extension study. Patients were eligible to enroll into Advance directly upon completion of the parent trial or after a gap period on standard of care treatment. In Advance, all subjects initiate 10 mg/day of paltusotine, the dose is then titrated to a maximum of 40 mg/day based on IGF-1 control and toleration. Despite delayed activation of many study sites due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Advance is expected to complete enrollment soon with an anticipated total of 41-43 of 49 eligible patients (84-88%). Open-label titration of paltusotine dose over the first 3-6 months of Advance study participation is complete for many subjects. As of June 1, 2021, 14 subjects have reached the Week 48 visit. An interim data cut is planned in August 2021, and a summary of key endpoints will be reported including summary statistics of IGF-1 and growth hormone (GH) compared to baseline. In addition, the incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events will be summarized. Analyses from this interim data snapshot will provide initial insights into the long-term safety and efficacy of paltusotine treatment for acromegaly.
