简要总结
Following the publication of two case studies that reported behavioral benefit in ASD patients treated with omalizumab, the investigators will conduct a pilot trial to test the proof-of-concept efficacy of omalizumab in ASD patients with comorbid atopic disease. Investigators will evaluate behavioral improvement using three questionnaires. Investigators will also perform fMRI on all subjects and obtain serum samples for quantification of immunological biomarkers. If the trial is conclusive, the investigators will conduct a larger-scale, randomized-controlled trial to further understand the pathology of allergy in this subpopulation of ASD patients and the efficacy of this intervention.
详细描述
This clinical trial is a Phase I, single-arm, open-label study. All 20 subjects will be given the same dosage of the study drug. Following baseline testing, subjects will undergo treatment during a 24 week treatment period and will receive six subcutaneous injections total, one injection every 4 weeks. A 24-week follow-up period after the treatment period will be concluded with patient interview. Behavioral questionnaires will be administered throughout the duration of the trial. fMRI will be conducted at baseline and at the conclusion of the treatment period. Blood will be drawn for serum testing at baseline, at Week 12 during the treatment period, and at the conclusion of the treatment period. Vitals and CGI will also be assessed throughout the trial.

Change from Baseline to Week 48 in Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS) Edition 2
时间窗: Baseline and Week 48
Social communication and behavior - The scoring is based on T-score which is based on the sum of responses as follows (76 to higher - severe, 66 to 75- moderate deficiencies, 60 to 65 - mild deficiencies, 59 and below is not clinically significant for ASD).

时间窗: Baseline and Week 24 (conclusion of treatment period)
Social behavior test - The total score is calculated based on 5 sub-scales (Irritability, Social Withdrawal, Stereotypic Behavior, Hyperactive/Noncompliance, and Inappropriate Speech). There are 58 questions that are scored on a 0-3 scale 0 -"not at all a problem", 1- "the behavior is a problem but slight in degree", 2- "the problem is moderately serious" and 3- "the problem is severe in degree". Based on this sub-scores are calculated and added to get the total score.

时间窗: Baseline and Week 1
Social Behavior Test - The total score is calculated by adding together the scores of 4 subtests (Speech/Language Communication, Sociability, Sensory/Cognitive Awareness, and Health/Physical/Behavior). This 67 question test will provide scores for each subtest and a total score, for which a higher score indicates greater symptom severity.
