Phase 3

A randomized, phase 3, double-blind, double-dummy, active comparator-controlled multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 2 doses of linaprazan glurate compared to lansoprazole in 4 or 8 weeks healing in participants with erosive esophagitis (EE) due to gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) of Los Angeles (LA) grades A to D

Primary Endpoint
Healing of EE at Week 4 as assessed by endoscopy in participants with Baseline EE LA grades C/D.

Overview

Brief Summary

To confirm superiority of linaprazan glurate 50 mg BID compared to lansoprazole in the healing of EE due to GERD of LA grades C/D after 4 weeks of double-blind treatment.

Eligibility Criteria

Ages
18 years to 65+ years (65+ Years, 18-64 Years)
Accepts Healthy Volunteers
No

Inclusion Criteria

  • The participant understands and voluntarily signs an Informed Consent Form (ICF) prior to initiation of any study-related assessments/procedures.
  • Male or female participants aged 18 to 80 years, inclusive, at the time of signing the ICF.
  • The participant is willing and able to comply with all aspects of the protocol (including endoscopies, PK sampling, tablet and capsule swallowing, electronic device [e-device] completion, etc.).
  • The participant has endoscopically confirmed EE due to GERD of LA grades A to D during the Screening Period as assessed in Central Review by an Independent Review Committee (IRC).

Exclusion Criteria

  • Ongoing infection with HP or diagnosis and treatment of HP infection within 6 weeks of randomization OR any treatment with antibiotics or bismuth containing drugs within 6 weeks of randomization.
  • Body mass index (BMI) ≤ 18 and ≥ 40 kg/m2 at Screening.
  • Requiring concomitant therapy with any of the prohibited medications as defined in the protocol.
  • Any planned major surgery within 16 weeks of Screening.
  • Any clinically significant laboratory parameter outside reference value that, in the opinion of the Investigator, may suggest a new or insufficiently understood disease, may present an unreasonable risk to the participant as a result of his/her participation in the study, or may interfere with study assessments. Any of these Screening laboratory test results are exclusionary, but re-test is allowed: a. Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) > 1.5 × the upper limit of normal (ULN) for the central laboratory conducting the test. b. Serum total bilirubin (TBL) >1.5 × ULN for the central laboratory conducting the test (individuals with Gilbert’s syndrome can be included). c. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 45 mL/min/1.73 m2 (as calculated by the central laboratory using the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease [MDRD] equation).
  • Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection/acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) or test positive for HIV antibodies at Screening.
  • Known chronic/active viral hepatitis or test positive at Screening for hepatitis B virus (HBV: hepatitis B surface antigen [HBsAg] and/or hepatitis B core antigen [anti-HBc], with detectable HBV DNA) or hepatitis C virus (HCV: positive hepatitis C antibody [anti-HCV], with detectable HCV ribonucleic acid [RNA]). Participants with positive screening HBV or HCV serology, but with undetectable/negative HBV DNA or HCV RNA viral load are permitted to participate.
  • History of long QTc syndrome (e.g., QTc ≥ 450 ms for males and ≥ 470 ms for females) or discovery of long QTc syndrome at Screening, as calculated by the Fridericia formula (QTc = QT / RR1/3) as reviewed and interpreted by a central reader.
  • Cardiac arrhythmias or any clinically significant abnormalities in the resting 12-lead ECG at the time of Screening, as reviewed and interpreted on site by the Investigator and by a central reader.
  • History of severe allergy/hypersensitivity or ongoing allergy/hypersensitivity to any component of the relevant study treatments, including excipients, as judged by the Investigator.
