RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: US FDA and EMA allow facilitated regulatory pathways to expedite access to new treatments. Limited supportive data may result in major postapproval variations. In Israel, partly relying on Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and European Medicines Agency (EMA), clinical data are reviewed independently by the Advisory Committee of Drug Registration (ACDR). In this study, the correlation between the number of discussions at the ACDR and major postapproval variations is examined. DESIGN: This is an observational retrospective comparative cohort study. SETTING: Applications with FDA and/or EMA approval at time of assessment in Israel were included. The timeframe was chosen to allow a minimum of 3 years of postmarketing approval experience for potential major label variations. Data regarding the number of discussions at ACDR were extracted from protocols. Data on postapproval major variations were extracted from the FDA and EMA websites. RESULTS: Between 2014 and 2016, 226 (176 drugs) applications, met the study criteria. 198 (87.6%) and 28 (12.4%) were approved following single and multiple discussions, respectively. A major postapproval variation was recorded in 129 (65.2%) compared with 23 (82.1%) applications approved following single and multiple discussions, respectively (p=0.002). Increased risk for major variation was found for medicines approved following multiple discussions (HR=1.98, 95% CI: 1.26 to 3.09) with a median time of 1.2 years, applications approved based on phase II trials (HR=2.58, 95% CI: 1.72 to 3.87), surrogate endpoints (HR=1.99, 95% CI: 1.44 to 2.74) and oncologic indications (HR=2.48, 95% CI: 1.78 to 3.45). CONCLUSIONS: Multiple ACDR discussions associated with limited supportive data are predictive for major postapproval variations. Moreover, our findings demonstrate that approval by the FDA and/or EMA does not pave the way to automatic approval in Israel. In a substantial per cent of the cases, submission of the same clinical data resulted in different safety and efficacy considerations, requiring additional supporting data in some cases or even rejection of the application in others.

RESUMO

The present study analyzed the expression and clinical role of the transforming growth factor-ß (TGFß) pathway in high-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC), with focus on malignant effusions. TGFß1-3 and TGFßRI-III mRNA expression by qRT-PCR was analyzed in 70 HGSC effusions and 55 solid specimens (28 ovarian, 27 abdominal metastases). Protein expression of Smad2 and Smad3 and their phosphorylated forms by Western blotting was analyzed in 73 specimens (42 effusions, 13 ovarian carcinomas, 18 solid metastases). Expression was analyzed for association with anatomic site and clinical parameters, including survival. TGFßRI and TGFßRII mRNA was overexpressed in effusions and solid metastases, particularly the former, compared to that in the ovarian tumors (p < 0.001 to p = 0.05), with anatomic site-dependent expression of splice variants. Conversely, Smad2, p-Smad2, and p-Smad3 were overexpressed in solid specimens (ovarian and peritoneal) compared to those in effusions (p < 0.001 for all). In univariate survival analysis, higher TGFßRI variant 1 and TGFßRIII mRNA levels were associated with a trend for shorter overall survival in patients with post-chemotherapy effusions (p = 0.066 and p = 0.087, respectively), and the latter was an independent prognostic marker in Cox multivariate analysis (p = 0.041). Smad3 protein expression was associated with a trend for shorter overall survival in univariate survival analysis (p = 0.052). TGFß receptor splice variant expression is anatomic site-dependent in HGSC. Elevated levels of TGFß signaling pathway mRNAs are seen in metastatic HGSC, but are not accompanied by increased Smad expression and activation in HGSC effusions, evidence of failure to activate canonical TGFß signaling. Assessment of the prognostic role of this pathway in HGSC effusions merits further research.
