Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Percentage of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
Time Frame: Baseline up to end of study (up to Day 85)
An adverse event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received investigational medicinal product (IMP) without regard to possibility of causal relationship with the treatment. An AE was any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with use of a study drug, whether or not considered related to the study drug. A serious adverse event (SAE) was an AE that resulted in any of the following outcomes: death; life threatening; persistent/significant disability/incapacity; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; congenital anomaly/birth defect or was considered as medically important event. TEAEs were defined as AEs that developed or worsened or became serious during on-treatment period (time from the first dose of study drug up to the end of study visit \[Day 85\]). Any TEAE included participants with both serious and non-serious AEs.
Secondary Outcomes
- Pharmacokinetics of Dupilumab: Time of the Last Positive (Quantifiable) Concentration (Tlast)(Day 22 (pre-dose), 25, 29, 36, 43, 50, 57, 64, 71 and Day 85)
- Pharmacokinetics of Dupilumab: Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax)(Day 22 (pre-dose), 25, 29, 36, 43, 50, 57, 64, 71 and Day 85)
- Pharmacokinetics of Dupilumab: Last Positive (Quantifiable) Concentration (Clast)(Day 22 (pre-dose), 25, 29, 36, 43, 50, 57, 64, 71 and Day 85)
