Completed
Conditions
Primary Immunodeficiency
Interventions
Biological: IGSC 20%
Registration Number
NCT02806986
Lead Sponsor
Grifols Therapeutics LLC
Brief Summary

Approximately 60 subjects will be enrolled in order to have approximately 20 adult subjects and 20 pediatric subjects treated with subcutaneously administered Immune Globulin Subcutaneous (Human), 20% Caprylate/Chromatography Purified (IGSC 20%) who complete the entire study. This study will include 3 study stages: Screening/Previous Regimen Phase, IGSC 20% Treatment Stage 1 (13 IGSC 20% weekly doses), and IGSC 20% Treatment Stage 2 (39 IGSC 20% weekly doses). A total of 52 doses of IGSC 20% will be administered with a final follow-up visit 1 week after the last dose at Week 53. Subjects/caregivers will be trained on self-administration of IGSC 20% by the clinical site personnel.

Detailed Description

This is a prospective, multi-center, open-label, single-arm, efficacy, PK, safety and tolerability study of IGSC 20% in subjects with PI. Approximately 60 subjects will be enrolled in order to have approximately 20 adult subjects and 20 pediatric subjects treated with subcutaneously administered IGSC 20% who complete the entire study.

This study will include 3 study stages: Screening/Previous Regimen Phase, IGSC 20% Treatment Stage 1 (13 IGSC 20% weekly doses), and IGSC 20% Treatment Stage 2 (39 IGSC 20% weekly doses).

Previous Regimen Phase: Subjects will be infused with their current ongoing ("previous regimen") intravenous immune globulin/subcutaneous immune globulin (IVIG/SCIG) regimen (pIV/pSC) in the clinic to obtain 2 trough immunoglobulin G (IgG) levels (obtained prior to each pIV/pSC infusion) on each subject's "previous regimen".

20% IGSC Treatment Stage 1: The first dose of IGSC 20% will be administered at the clinical site immediately after Baseline assessments are complete (SC#1). All subjects will receive 13 IGSC 20% infusions at weekly intervals. IgG trough blood levels will be measured at all (except SC#3) study visits All other doses of IGSC 20% may be infused at home (once properly trained) or in the clinic. The Treatment Stage 1 dose will continue into IGSC 20% Treatment Stage 2.

IGSC 20% Treatment Stage 2: The IGSC 20% dose (mg/kg) will remain constant with no dose adjustment permitted in this phase, unless it is absolutely medically necessary. While all subjects will have a SC#17 clinic visit and standard assessments, serial pharmacokinetics (PK) sampling will only be performed in a subset of adult subjects:

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Rate of Serious Bacterial Infection (SBI) Per Participant Per YearIGSC 20% Treatment Stage 1: Week 1 to 13; IGSC 20% Treatment Stage 2: Week 14 to 53; IGSC 20% Overall: Week 1 to 53

The rate of SBI events per participant per year during IGSC 20% treatment was calculated as the total number of SBI events divided by the total duration of exposure in years across all participants. The 2-sided 98% confidence interval (CI) was determined from a generalized linear model for poisson regression for the log-transformed number of events with log-transformed duration of exposure in years as an offset variable.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Rate of Days of Work/School/Daily Activities Missed Per Participants Per Year Due to Infections and Related TreatmentIGSC 20% Treatment Stage 1: Week 1 to 13; IGSC 20% Treatment Stage 2: Week 14 to 53; IGSC 20% Overall: Week 1 to 53

The rate of days of work, school or daily activities missed per participant per year during IGSC 20% treatment was calculated as the total number of days of work/school/daily activities missed divided by the total duration of exposure in years across all participants. The 2-sided 95% CI was determined from a generalized linear model for poisson regression for the log-transformed number of days with log transformed duration of exposure in years as an offset variable.

Mean Trough Total IgG ConcentrationPrevious Regimen Phase: 2 timepoints pre-dose of pIV or pSC between Screening and Baseline (up to 8 weeks). IGSC 20% Phase: Pre-dose of IGSC 20% at Baseline (Week 1), Weeks 2, 5, 9, 13, 17, 18, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, and at Week 53

Mean trough total IgG concentration during the previous regimen phase was calculated as the average of the trough concentrations at the previous IVIG (pIV)#1 and pIV#2 visits for participants entering the study on a previous IVIG regimen, or at the previous subcutaneous immune globulin (SCIG) (pSC)#1 and baseline/SC#1 visits for participants entering the study on a previous SCIG regimen. Mean trough total IgG concentration during the IGSC 20% phase was calculated as the average of all steady state trough concentrations measured during the IGSC 20% treatment stage 2 at the visits corresponding to Weeks 17, 18, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48, 52 and 53.

Rate of Infection of Any Kind Per Participant Per YearIGSC 20% Treatment Stage 1: Week 1 to 13; IGSC 20% Treatment Stage 2: Week 14 to 53; IGSC 20% Overall: Week 1 to 53

The total number of infections of any kind (serious/non-serious including acute sinusitis, exacerbation of chronic sinusitis, acute otitis media, pneumonia, acute bronchitis, infectious diarrhea, etc.) as determined by the investigator were evaluated. The rate of infection events per participant per year during IGSC 20% treatment was calculated as the total number of infection events divided by the total duration of exposure in years across all participants. The 2-sided 95% CI was determined from a generalized linear model for poisson regression for the log-transformed number of events with log-transformed duration of exposure in years as an offset variable.

Rate of Days on Antibiotics Per Participants Per YearIGSC 20% Treatment Stage 1: Week 1 to 13; IGSC 20% Treatment Stage 2: Week 14 to 53; IGSC 20% Overall: Week 1 to 53

The rate of days on antibiotics per participants per year during IGSC 20% treatment was calculated as the total number of days on antibiotic divided by the total duration of exposure in years across all participants. The 2-sided 95% CI was determined from a generalized linear model for poisson regression for the log transformed number of days with log-transformed duration of exposure in years as an offset variable.

Rate of Hospitalization Due to Infection Per Participants Per YearIGSC 20% Treatment Stage 1: Week 1 to 13; IGSC 20% Treatment Stage 2: Week 14 to 53; IGSC 20% Overall: Week 1 to 53

The rate of hospitalization due to infection events per participant per year during IGSC 20% treatment was calculated as the total number of hospitalization due to infection events divided by the total duration of exposure in years across all participants. The 2-sided 95% CI was determined from a generalized linear model for poisson regression for the log-transformed number of events with log-transformed duration of exposure in years as an offset variable.
