Lumacaftor is a drug used in combination with [DB08820] as the fixed dose combination product Orkambi for the management of Cystic Fibrosis (CF) in patients aged 6 years and older. Cystic Fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by one of several different mutations in the gene for the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) protein, a transmembrane ion channel involved in the transport of chloride and sodium ions across cell membranes of the lungs, pancreas, and other organs. Mutations in the CFTR gene result in altered production, misfolding, or function of the CFTR protein and consequently abnormal fluid and ion transport across cell membranes. As a result, CF patients produce thick, sticky mucus that clogs the ducts of organs where it is produced making patients more susceptible to infections, lung damage, pancreatic insufficiency, and malnutrition. Lumacaftor improves CF symptoms and underlying disease pathology by aiding the conformational stability of F508del-mutated CFTR proteins, preventing misfolding and resulting in increased processing and trafficking of mature protein to the cell surface. Results from clinical trials indicated that treatment with Orkambi (lumacaftor/ivacaftor) results in improved lung function, reduced chance of experiencing a pulmonary exacerbation, increased weight gain, and improvements in CF symptoms. This data has been heavily scrutinized, however, with clinical trials showing only modest improvements despite a hefty yearly cost of $259,000 for Orkambi. Improvements in lung function (ppFEV1) were found to be statistically significant, but minimal, with only a 2.6-3.0% change from baseline with more than 70% of patients failing to achieve an absolute improvement of at least 5%. A wide variety of CFTR mutations correlate to the Cystic Fibrosis phenotype and are associated with differing levels of disease severity. The most common mutation, affecting approximately 70% of patients with CF worldwide, is known as F508del-CFTR, or delta-F508 (F508), in which a deletion in the amino acid phenylalanine at position 508 results in impaired production of the CFTR protein, thereby causing a significant reduction in the amount of ion transporter present on cell membranes. When used in combination with [DB08820] as the fixed dose combination product Orkambi, lumacaftor is specific for the management of CF in patients with delta-F508 mutations as it acts as a protein-folding chaperone, aiding the conformational stability of the mutated CFTR protein. Consequently, lumacaftor increases successful production of CFTR ion channels and the total number of receptors available for use at the cell membrane for fluid and ion transport. The next most common mutation, G551D, affecting 4-5% of CF patients worldwide, is characterized as a missense mutation, whereby there is sufficient amount of protein at the cell surface, but opening and closing mechanisms of the channel are altered. Treatment of patients with G551D and other rarer missense mutations is usually managed with [DB08820] (Kalydeco), as it aids with altered gating mechanisms by potentiating channel opening probability of CFTR protein. Prior to the development of lumacaftor and [DB08820] (Kalydeco), management of CF primarily involved therapies for the control of infections, nutritional support, clearance of mucus, and management of symptoms rather than improvements in the underlying disease process. Approved for use by the Food and Drug Administration in July 2015 and by Health Canada in January 2016, Orkambi was the first combination product approved for the management of Cystic Fibrosis with delta-F508 mutations. Ivacaftor is manufactured and distributed by Vertex Pharmaceuticals.

5.4 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

Absorption

Following administration of Orkambi (lumacaftor/[DB08820]) with fat containing foods, peak plasma concentrations were reached at 4 hours (Tmax). It's recommended that Orkambi should be taken with fat-containing foods as they increase absorption of lumacaftor by approximately 2-fold, and[DB08820 by 3-fold.


Route of Elimination

Lumacaftor is primarily excreted unchanged in the feces (51%). A minimal amount of the parent compound and its metabolites are excreted in the urine.


Volume of Distribution

Following oral administration of 200 mg of lumacaftor every 24 hours to cystic fibrosis patients in a fed state for 28 days, the mean (+/-SD) for apparent volumes of distribution was 86.0 (69.8) L.


Clearance

The typical apparent clearance, CL/F (CV), of lumacaftor was estimated to be 2.38 L/hr.


5.5 Metabolism/Metabolites

Lumacaftor is mostly excreted unchanged in the feces and is not extensively metabolized. When metabolism does occur, oxidation and glucuronidation are the main processes involved.


5.6 Biological Half-Life

The half-life of lumacaftor is approximately 26 hours.


5.7 Mechanism of Action

Lumacaftor improves CF symptoms and underlying disease pathology by aiding the conformational stability of F508del-mutated CFTR, resulting in increased processing and trafficking of mature protein to the cell surface. More specifically, lumacaftor acts as a protein-folding chaperone, preventing misfolding of CFTR ion channels and consequent destruction during processing in the endoplasmic reticulum.
