- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Total Body Clearance (CLT) of Belatacept Pre-dose (0), 0.5hr and 2hr from the start of infusion on Day 1, Day 29, and Day 57 CLT was the volume of abatacept cleared by the system, normalized by baseline body weight. Serum samples were analyzed for abatacept by a validated enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and were obtained at: pre-dose (0 hours), 0.5 and 2 hours from Start of Infusion on Day 1, Day 29, and Day 57. The results were summarized. The lower limit of assay quantitation (LLOQ) was set to "zero" which was 0.003 micrograms per milliliter (ug/mL). CLT was measured in milliliters per hours per kilogram of body weight (mL/h/kg).
Volume of Distribution at Steady-state (Vss) of Belatacept Pre-dose (0), 0.5hr and 2hr from the start of infusion on Day 1, Day 29, and Day 57 Vss was derived from serum concentration versus time data. Serum samples were analyzed for abatacept by a validated enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and were obtained at: pre-dose (0 hours), 0.5 and 2 hours from Start of Infusion on Day 1, Day 29, and Day 57. The results were summarized. The lower limit of assay quantitation (LLOQ) was set to "zero" which was 0.003 micrograms per milliliter (ug/mL). Vss was measured in liters per kg body weight (L/kg).
Maximum Observed Serum Concentration (Cmax) of Belatacept Pre-dose (0), 0.5hr and 2hr from the start of infusion on Day 1, Day 29, and Day 57 Cmax was derived from serum concentration versus time data. Serum samples were analyzed for abatacept by a validated enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and were obtained at: pre-dose (0 hours), 0.5 and 2 hours from Start of Infusion on Day 1, Day 29, and Day 57. The results were summarized. The lower limit of assay quantitation (LLOQ) was set to "zero" which was 0.003 micrograms per milliliter (ug/mL). Cmax was measured in micrograms per milliliter.
Time of Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of Belatacept Pre-dose (0), 0.5hr and 2hr from the start of infusion on Day 1, Day 29, and Day 57 Tmax was derived from serum concentration versus time data. Serum samples were analyzed for abatacept by a validated enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and were obtained at: pre-dose (0 hours), 0.5 and 2 hours from Start of Infusion on Day 1, Day 29, and Day 57. The results were summarized. The lower limit of assay quantitation (LLOQ) was set to "zero" which was 0.003 micrograms per milliliter (ug/mL). Tmax was measured in hours (h).
Half-Life of Elimination (T-Half) of Belatacept Pre-dose (0), 0.5hr and 2hr from the start of infusion on Day 1, Day 29, and Day 57 T-HALF was derived from serum concentration versus time data. Serum samples were analyzed for abatacept by a validated enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and were obtained at: pre-dose (0 hours), 0.5 and 2 hours from Start of Infusion on Day 1, Day 29, and Day 57. The results were summarized. The lower limit of assay quantitation (LLOQ) was set to "zero" which was 0.003 micrograms per milliliter (ug/mL). T-HALF was measured in hours (h).
Area Under the Serum Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to the Time of the Last Quantifiable Concentration (AUC (0-T)) and Area Under the Serum Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero Extrapolated to Infinite Time (AUC(INF)) of Belatacept Pre-dose (0), 0.5hr and 2hr from the start of infusion on Day 1, Day 29, and Day 57 AUC (0 - T) and AUC (0 - INF) were derived from serum concentration versus time data and measured in microgram hours per milliliter (µg\*h/mL). Serum samples were analyzed for abatacept by a validated enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and were obtained at: pre-dose (0 hours), 0.5 and 2 hours from Start of Infusion on Day 1, Day 29, and Day 57. The results were summarized. The lower limit of assay quantitation (LLOQ) was set to "zero" which was 0.003 micrograms per milliliter (ug/mL).
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of Participants With Positive Belatacept-induced Immunogenicity Response Baseline/Day 1, Days 15, 29, and 57 Serum samples were analyzed for anti-belatacept antibodies using a validated homogenous bridging assay. The assay followed a tiered approach consistent with health authority guidance: tier 1 for screening ADA responses, tier 2 for confirming drug specificity of the ADA-positive responses, and tier 3 for titer. A neutralizing antibody assay was used to test those samples positive to the LEA29Y portion of the molecule in tier 2 and for which drug concentrations are =\>1 μg/mL. Lack of immunogenicity was defined as the absence of a positive response.
Percentage of CD86 Receptor Occupancy 0.5 hours post dose on Day 1, Day 29 and Day 57 Blood samples collected following the single dose belatacept infusion were assessed for CD86 receptor occupancy (CD86 RO).
Number of Participants With Death, Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), and Treatment-related Adverse Event (AE) Date of First Dose to 24 weeks post the last dose; approximately 26 weeks Death was a fatal event leading to permanent cessations of all vital functions of the body. SAE=a medical event that at any dose results in death, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or drug dependency/abuse; is life threatening, an important medical event, or a congenital anomaly/birth defect; or requires or prolongs hospitalization. Adverse event (AE) defined: any new unfavorable symptom, sign, or disease or worsening of a preexisting condition that may not have a causal relationship with treatment. Treatment related=having certain, probable, possible, or missing relationship to study drug.
