Background: Somatrogon is a once-weekly treatment for children with pediatric GH deficiency (pGHD). The goal of this study was to simulate IGF-1 and IGF-1 SDS profiles and calculate the ratio and differences of observations to 96-hour values over the dosing interval.

Methods: A population PK model was developed using data from a Phase 2 study and a Phase 3 study in children with pGHD. An indirect-response PK/PD model linked drug concentration with IGF-1. The PK model includes the effect of ADA on somatrogon clearance after 6 months. For each of the ~9000 dosing records, an IGF-1 profile over 168 hours at steady-state was simulated. The ratio of IGF-1 and difference in IGF-1 SDS to values at 96 hours after the previous dose was calculated.

Results: Early in therapy, the mean of the difference of IGF-1 SDS and mean IGF-1 SDS ranged between -0.98 (at 0 and 7 days after dosing) and 0.74 (at day 2 after dosing). After 6 months of treatment, when it is assumed that anti-drug antibodies have resulted in higher somatrogon concentrations, the mean of the difference of IGF-1 SDS and mean IGF-1 SDS ranged between -1.55 (at 0 and 7 days after dosing) and 0.37 (at day 2.5 after dosing). Similar results were observed in simulations assuming doses of 0.66 mg/kg/wk.

Conclusions: Simulations such as these may aid clinicians in interpreting IGF-1 levels in pediatric patients with GHD receiving somatrogon.
