Registration Number
NCT05938478
Lead Sponsor
University of California, San Diego
Brief Summary

The goal of this observational study is to learn about exposure to tralokinumab during pregnancy, as well as atopic dermatitis (AD) during pregnancy.

The main question the study aims to answer is whether pregnant people who have been exposed to tralokinumab during pregnancy experience any differences in pregnancy and infant outcomes compared to women with atopic dermatitis who have not been exposed to tralokinumab during pregnancy. Participants are not required to take tralokinumab during the study.

Participants will be asked to:

* Complete 1-3 phone interviews during pregnancy and 1-2 phone interviews after delivery

* Release medical records for pregnancy and for their child

* Complete an online survey about their baby's development at 4 months and 12 months of age

* May be asked to have a study doctor examine their child

All information is collected remotely, and no visits to the study site are required.

Detailed Description

This Organization of Teratology Information Specialists (OTIS) Pregnancy Registry, is a United States (US) based registry designed to monitor pregnancy and infant outcomes among women in the US and Canada. This study is a prospective, observational cohort study of pregnancy and infant outcomes in pregnant people with exposure to tralokinumab for atopic dermatitis compared to people who have atopic dermatitis who have not used tralokinumab during pregnancy.

Researchers will compare pregnancy outcomes of those who were exposed to tralokinumab during pregnancy to pregnancy outcomes in people who did not use tralokinumab anytime in pregnancy, or 16 weeks prior to pregnancy, but who may or may not have used another medication to treat their atopic dermatitis during pregnancy. Information about infant health will be collected through one year of age.

  2. Exposure to any dose of tralokinumab, methotrexate or mycophenolate mofetil within 5 half-lives prior to the estimated date of conception or anytime during pregnancy.
  3. Retrospective enrollment after the outcome of pregnancy is known (i.e., the pregnancy has ended prior to enrollment)
  4. Results of a diagnostic test are positive for a major structural defect prior to enrollment. However, women who have had any normal or abnormal prenatal screening or diagnostic test prior to enrollment are eligible as long as the test result does not indicate a major structural defect

Cohort 3: AD Therapy Comparator II - With or Without Treatment

  1. Pregnant women who have enrolled in the tralokinumab cohort study with a previous pregnancy
  2. Exposure to any dose of tralokinumab, methotrexate or mycophenolate mofetil within 5 half-lives prior to the estimated date of conception or anytime during pregnancy
  3. Exposure to any dose of phototherapy and/or systemic therapy for the treatment of AD within 5 half-lives prior to the estimated date of conception or during pregnancy
  4. Retrospective enrollment after the outcome of pregnancy is known (i.e., the pregnancy has ended prior to enrollment)
  5. Results of a diagnostic test are positive for a major structural defect prior to enrollment. However, women who have had any normal or abnormal prenatal screening or diagnostic test prior to enrollment are eligible as long as the test result does not indicate a major structural defect

Case-Series: Tralokinumab-Exposed Case Series

Pregnancies with tralokinumab exposure that do not meet the exposed cohort (Cohort 1) criteria will be excluded from the cohort, but will be included in the Exposure Series. Women who are eligible for enrollment in the Exposure Series include, but are not limited to the following: exposed to tralokinumab during pregnancy for an indication other than AD, women who enrolled with a previous pregnancy in the cohort, and retrospective reports of a tralokinumab-exposed pregnancy after the outcome of pregnancy is known. With informed consent, data will be collected from those enrolled in the Exposure Series from maternal interviews and medical record review using the same protocol as the cohort study to the extent possible.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Prevalence of Major Structural Birth DefectsUp to 1-year of age

Major structural defects is defined and classified using the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) coding manual that is used for the Metropolitan Atlanta Congenital Defects Program (MACDP) classification of major structural defects. All major structural defects will be adjudicated by the co-investigator on this study.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of pregnancies ending in Spontaneous Abortion/MiscarriageUp to 20 weeks post-LMP

Spontaneous abortion/miscarriage is defined as non-deliberate fetal death that occurs prior to 20 weeks after the first day of the last menstrual period (LMP).

Number of pregnancies ending in StillbirthFrom 20 weeks post-LMP to end of pregnancy

Stillbirth is defined as non-deliberate fetal death anytime in gestation at or after 20 weeks after the first day of the last menstrual period (LMP).

Number of children who are Small for Gestational AgeAt birth

Small for gestational age is defined as birth size (weight, length or head circumference) less than the 10th centile for sex and gestational age using standard pediatric CDC growth curves for full term or preterm infants.

Number of children who are Small for Age for Postnatal GrowthUp to 1 year of age

Small for age for postnatal growth is defined as postnatal size (weight, length or head circumference) less than the 10th centile for sex and age using National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) pediatric growth curves, and adjusted postnatal age for premature infants if the postnatal measurement is obtained at less than 1 year of age.

Number of children diagnosed with a Serious or Opportunistic InfectionsUp to 1 year of age

A diagnosis of tuberculosis, x-ray proven pneumonia, neonatal sepsis, meningitis, bacteremia, invasive fungal infection, pneumocystitis, septic arthritis, osteomyelitis, abscess (deep tissue), and infections requiring hospitalization identified in live born infants

Number of pregnancies ending in Premature DeliveryThrough 9 months of pregnancy

Premature delivery is defined as live birth prior to 37 weeks gestation as counted from LMP (or calculated from first-trimester ultrasound-derived due date if LMP uncertain or more than 1 week discrepant).

A Pattern of Minor Structural Birth DefectsThrough completion of the study; an average of 1 year

A pattern of 3 or more minor structural defects occurring in at least two children in any of the cohorts and identified by a study examiner based on the study-related physical examination.

Number of Perinatal, Neonatal, or Infant DeathsFrom 20 weeks gestation to 12 months of age

Stillbirth is defined as non-deliberate fetal death anytime in gestation at or after 20 weeks after the first day of the last menstrual period (LMP). Neonatal death is defined as death of live born infant within 28 days of delivery. Infant death is defined as death of a live born infant \>28 days old to 1 year of life.

Number of pregnancies ending in Elective Termination/AbortionAt the completion of pregnancy; before 40 weeks post-LMP

Elective termination/abortion is defined as deliberate termination of pregnancy through medication or surgical procedures. Elective abortions are classified for medical or social reasons.

Screening for Neurodevelopmental Milestones4 months and 12 months of age

Screening for neurodevelopment performed using the Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ). An abnormal score is defined in the scoring guidelines. Abnormal scores of clinical concern are defined by test-based, standardized scoring criteria reported in the ASQ-3 User's Guide. These represent scores that are less than two standard deviations below the mean for each category. Borderline scores are scores that fall between 2.0 and 1.5 standard deviations below the mean. The ASQ-3 does not provide a borderline score range but they suggest that children be monitored when they have scores 1.0 - 2.0 standard deviations below the mean.
