Trial overview

Official title: PGx7530: Genetics of Mepolizumab (SB240563) Treatment Response in Severe Asthmatics in MEA115588
Trial description: The objective of this study was to identify genetic variants predictive of patients least likely to show efficacy from mepolizumab treatment.
Genetic markers and candidate genes that have previously been associated with asthma, asthma severity and/or map to candidate IL-5 and eosinophil pathway-related genes were prioritized into separate marker tiers and tested for association. All other common GWAS markers, measured or imputed, were explored for association with the primary and secondary outcome measures.
Generalized linear regression assuming the Negative Binomial probability distribution (where the mean is related to covariate factors through a ‘log link’ function) was used to test for association between rates of asthma exacerbation and each genetic marker, assuming an additive genetic model. Cox proportional hazards model was used to assess the association between each genetic marker and `Time to first clinically significant asthma exacerbation’. For either regression, GWAS PCs and appropriate covariates were included in the model.
Subject level data was analyzed separately for MEA112997 and MEA115588, and summary data meta-analyzed.
For analysis within each marker tier, the false positive rate was controlled to 5%.
