Study of Benralizumab (KHK4563) in Patients With Eosinophilic Chronic Rhinosinusitis

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Eosinophilic Chronic Rhinosinusitis
Interventions
Drug: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT02772419
Lead Sponsor
Kyowa Kirin Co., Ltd.
Brief Summary

The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SC administrations of Benralizumab or Placebo in the subjects with Eosinophilic Chronic Rhinosinusitis in a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. The pharmacokinetics and immunogenicity will be assessed secondarily.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The change from baseline in nasal polyp score at Week 12baseline and 12 weeks post-dose
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The change from baseline in the improvement of olfactory dysfunctionPre-dose and 4,8,12,24 weeks post-dose

Olfactory dysfunction (1 to 5) is calculated by the Olfactory thresholds.

The change from baseline in nasal polyp scorePre-dose and 4,8,12,16,20,24 weeks post-dose
The change from baseline in Computed tomography (CT) scorebaseline and 12 weeks post-dose
Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) or drug-related TEAEs and their natureUp to 24 weeks after dosing
Number of subjects discontinued from the study due to aggravation of eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitisUp to 24 weeks after dosing
Time to discontinuation (days) from the study due to aggravation of eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitisUp to 24 weeks after dosing
The change from baseline in the averaged values of the Olfactory thresholdsPre-dose and 4,8,12,24 weeks post-dose

Olfactory thresholds are assessed by T\&T Olfactometer Test Score (Five kinds of smell with eight (5 to -2) phases).

The change from baseline in Sino-Nasal Outcome Test-2 (SNOT-22)Pre-dose and 4,8,12, 16, 20, 24 weeks post-dose

Symptom score are assessed by VAS (nasal congestion, anterior and posterior nasal drip, loss of the sense of smell, headache, and impairment in activity of daily living)

The change from baseline in Blood eosinophil countPre-dose and 4,8,12,16,20,24 weeks post-dose
The change from baseline in Nasal Airway ResistancePre-dose and 4,8,12,24 weeks post-dose

Nasal airway resistance (Pa/cm\^3/s)

The change from baseline in Symptom score by Visual Analog Scale (VAS)Pre-dose and 4,8,12, 16, 20, 24 weeks post-dose

Symptom score are assessed by VAS (nasal congestion, anterior and posterior nasal drip, loss of the sense of smell, headache, and impairment in activity of daily living)
