Introduction: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a life-limiting genetic disease caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. Elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ELX/TEZ/IVA) is a CFTR modulator (CFTRm) that targets the underlying cause of CF. Based on safety and efficacy demonstrated in clinical trials, ELX/TEZ/IVA is approved in the US for the treatment of CF in people aged ≥ 2 years who have ≥ 1 F508del-CFTR mutation or a CFTR mutation that is responsive to ELX/TEZ/IVA based on in vitro data.

Rationale & Objective: We report a pooled safety analysis of intravenous difelikefalin in participants with moderate to severe chronic kidney disease-associated pruritus (CKD-aP) treated by hemodialysis in 4 phase 3 clinical studies.

Study Design: KALM-1 and KALM-2 were randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, pivotal phase 3 studies; CLIN3101 (52 weeks) and CLIN3105 (12 weeks) were open-label studies.

Setting & Participants: Adults with moderate to severe CKD-aP treated by hemodialysis in North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region.

Difelikefalin, a selective kappa opioid receptor agonist designed to limit central nervous system (CNS) penetration, is under development for the treatment of pruritus. Its hydrophilic, small-peptidic structure limits CNS entry, minimizing potential CNS-mediated adverse events (AEs). This study assessed the effect of difelikefalin on key relevant measures of respiratory depression in healthy volunteers.
