A Study of the Effect of IW-1701 (Olinciguat), a Stimulator of Soluble Guanylate Cyclase (sGC), on Patients With Sickle Cell Disease (SCD)

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Sickle Cell Disease
Interventions
Drug: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT03285178
Lead Sponsor
Cyclerion Therapeutics
Brief Summary

The primary objective of the 1701-202 STRONG SCD study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of different dose levels of IW-1701 compared with placebo when administered daily for approximately 12 weeks to patients with stable SCD. Exploratory objectives include evaluation of pharmacokinetic (PK) as well as evaluation of the effect of IW-1701 on symptoms of SCD, health-related quality of life, and biomarkers of pharmacodynamic (PD) activity.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Double-Blind Treatment: Number of Participants With Study Drug-Related TEAEsFirst dose of randomized drug through 28 days after study drug discontinuation. Median number of weeks of treatment was 12.30, 11.85, 12.20, 12.20, 12.10, and 12.10, respectively, for Placebo 1, Placebo 2, Olinciguat 2 mg, 4 mg, 6 mg, and 18 mg groups.

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence that does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An SAE is defined as any AE occurring at any dose that results in any of the following: death; life-threatening; hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly/birth defect; other important medical event. A TEAE is an event that occurs after initiation of randomized study drug through 28 days after study drug discontinuation. Events were categorized by grade: 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe, 4=life-threatening, 5=death, and as related or unrelated to study drug. If a participant had more than 1 occurrence in the same event category, only the occurrence with closest relationship to study drug was counted.

Double-Blind Treatment: Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)First dose of randomized drug through 28 days after study drug discontinuation. Median number of weeks of treatment was 12.30, 11.85, 12.20, 12.20, 12.10, and 12.10, respectively, for Placebo 1, Placebo 2, Olinciguat 2 mg, 4 mg, 6 mg, and 18 mg groups.

An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence that does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. A serious AE (SAE) is defined as any AE occurring at any dose that results in any of the following: death; life-threatening; hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly/birth defect; other important medical event. A TEAE is an event that occurs after initiation of randomized study drug through 28 days after study drug discontinuation. Events were categorized by grade: 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe, 4=life-threatening, 5=death, and as related or unrelated to study drug. Adverse Events of special interest (AESIs) included symptomatic or Grade ≥2 hypotensive events and/or tachycardia AEs, bleeding events, pulmonary edema, and bone-related events, including fractures.

Double-Blind Treatment: Number of Participants With ≥1 TEAE, by Maximum SeverityFirst dose of randomized drug through 28 days after study drug discontinuation. Median number of weeks of treatment was 12.30, 11.85, 12.20, 12.20, 12.10, and 12.10, respectively, for Placebo 1, Placebo 2, Olinciguat 2 mg, 4 mg, 6 mg, and 18 mg groups.
