A Study to Assess Adverse Events and Change in Disease State in Adult Participants Being Treated With Humira in Participants Diagnosed With Pyoderma Gangrenosum (PG)

Completed
Conditions
Pyoderma Gangrenosum
Registration Number
NCT04750213
Lead Sponsor
AbbVie
Brief Summary

Pyoderma Gangrenosum (PG) is a rapidly progressive disease and presents as painful, single or multiple lesions, with several clinical variants, in different locations, with a nonspecific histology, which makes the diagnosis challenging and often delayed. The main objective of this study is to estimate the incidence proportion of all the infection reported as adverse drug reaction (ADR) of Humira with PG participants.

Humira is the only drug approved for the treatment of Pyoderma Gangrenosum (PG) in Japan. Approximately 60 adult participants with PG at approximately 60 sites in Japan.

Participants will receive injectable Humira (Adalimumab) as prescribed by the physician prior to enrolling in this study.

There may be a higher burden for participants in this study compared to standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits per routine clinical practice. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, checking for side effects, and by verbal interview.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Incidence Percentage of all the Infection Reported as Adverse Drug Reaction (ADR)Up to 52 weeks

An adverse event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with their treatment. Among AEs, an event whose causal relationship with the product cannot be ruled out is considered an adverse drug reaction.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in Verbal Rating Scale (VRS) CategoryUp to Week 52

Pain improvement will be assessed using a VRS scale 0-3 with a lower score indicating less pain.

Incidence Percentage of Serious Infection Reported as ADRUp to 52 weeks

An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with their treatment. Among AEs, an event whose causal relationship with the product cannot be ruled out is considered an adverse drug reaction.

Change in Investigator Inflammation Assessment (IIA) Score from Start of DosingUp to Week 52

IIA will be used for assessment of efficacy of target lesions.

Time to Recurrence (Day)Up to Week 52

Recurrence of PG.

Pain Improvement Assessed with VRSWeek 26 to Week 52

Pain improvement will be assessed using a VRS scale 0-3 with a lower score indicating less pain.

Incidence Percentage of each ADR (Besides Infection)Up to 52 weeks

An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with their treatment. Among AEs, an event whose causal relationship with the product cannot be ruled out is considered an adverse drug reaction.

Percentage of Participants with RecurrenceUp to Week 52

Recurrence of PG.

Change in PGA [Target] GradeUp to Week 52

PGA will be used for assessment of efficacy of target lesions.

Percentage of PG Subtype at RecurrenceUp to Week 52

Recurrence of PG. PG subtypes include (ulcerative (including peristomal), bullous, pustular, vegetative).

Change in Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) [Global] GradeUp to Week 52

PGA will be used for overall assessment of efficacy.
