A Study of Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of KAN-101 in People with Celiac Disease

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Celiac Disease
Coeliac Disease
Interventions
Drug: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT06001177
Lead Sponsor
Kanyos Bio, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Anokion SA
Brief Summary

The study goal is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of KAN-101 in participants with Celiac Disease (CeD)

Detailed Description

Study KAN-101-03 is a multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2a study to examine whether KAN-101 confers protection from gluten exposure induced histological changes in the duodenum and to further evaluate the safety/tolerability of KAN-101 in adult participants (≥18 years) with CeD on a gluten free diet. Approximately 52 participants who meet study inclusion/exclusion criteria will be randomized 1:1 to receive KAN-101 or placebo.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Changes from baseline in Vh:Cd as assessed by esophagogastroduodenoscopy with biopsy after 2-week gluten challenge (GC)29 days

Vh:Cd is the ratio of villous height to crypt depth, a histological assessment

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Incidence of KAN-101 ADA42 days

ADA is antidrug antibody

Change in magnitude of IL-2 response from Day 15 (first day of GC) pre GC to Day 15 post GC15 days

IL-2 is interleukin-2

Incidence and severity of treatment emergent adverse events as assessed by the CTCAE42 days

Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) is a scale with 5 grades to assess Adverse Event (AE) severity
