Subcutaneous administration of immunoglobulins is associated with fewer systemic adverse events and easier infusion compared to intravenous administration. Ig20Gly is a 20% immunoglobulin formulation effective and safe in patients with primary immune deficiency diseases (PIDDs). Real-world data are scarce, therefore our study aimed to examine the real-life treatment regimen and clinical outcomes of Ig20Gly in Polish children with PIDDs. We retrospectively analyzed the medical documentation of 75 pediatric patients aged 0-17 years (mean 9.9) who received Ig20Gly (Cuvitru®; Baxalta US, Inc.; part of Takeda, MA, U.S.A.). The median exposure to treatment of the study population was 22.3 months. At the end of the study, 59 (78.7%) were still on Ig20Gly. The median monthly dose was 0.40 g/kg. The median treatment interval was 7.7 days. Most patients (96%) used one infusion site. The median infusion rate increased with patient age. The median IgG level in the study population, 8.0 g/L, was stable. There was one case of serious bacterial infection. This is the largest, long-term real-world study to date on the treatment patterns of Ig20Gly in pediatric patients with PIDDs. The results of this study support the feasibility and tolerability of Ig20Gly usage in PIDD patients across the pediatric age spectrum. The trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT04636502).
