- Interventions
- Registration Number
- NCT05831176
- Lead Sponsor
- Regeneron Pharmaceuticals
- Brief Summary
This study is researching an experimental drug called dupilumab. The study is focused on participants with active eosinophilic gastritis (EoG) with or without eosinophilic duodenitis (EoD). Participants with EoD only are not eligible for enrollment. EoG and EoD are uncommon, persistent, allergic/immune diseases in which eosinophils (a type of white blood cell) gather in large numbers in the stomach and small intestine and cause inflammation and damage.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of dupilumab on relieving EoG (with or without EoD) symptoms and reducing inflammation in the stomach and, if applicable, small intestine in adults and adolescents aged 12 years and older after at least 24 weeks (about 6 months) and up to 52 weeks (1 year) of treatment.
The study is looking at several other research questions, including:
* What side effects may happen from taking the study drug
* How much study drug is in the blood at different times
* Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drug (which could make the drug less effective or could lead to side effects)
- Detailed Description
This study has 2 parts and a 12-week (about 3 months) Follow-up Period for all participants
* Part A is an open-label treatment period lasting up to 24 weeks (up to 6 months). "Open-label" means that you and the study doctors and the staff staff will know that you are taking the study drug
* Part C is an open-label extended treatment period lasting up to 28 weeks (about 7 months). "Extended Treatment Period" means that you will take the study drug for 28 weeks if you are eligible to take part in this part of the study

- An average TSS of ≥ 20 calculated using data collected via the EoG/EoD-SQ eDiary per week for the 2 weeks prior to baseline. An average severity score of ≥4 (on a scale of 0-10) per week for the 2 weeks prior to baseline for at least 2 of the 6 symptoms, as defined in the protocol.
Key
- Body weight less than 40 kg at screening
- Prior participation in a dupilumab clinical trial, or past or current treatment with dupilumab
- Helicobacter pylori infection
- Any esophageal stricture unable to be passed with a standard, diagnostic, upper endoscope or any critical esophageal stricture that requires dilation at screening
- History of achalasia, Crohn's disease, eosinophilic colitis, ulcerative colitis, celiac disease, and prior gastric or duodenal surgery, as defined in the protocol
- Other causes of gastric and, if applicable, duodenal eosinophilia or the following conditions: eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (Churg-Strauss syndrome) or hyper-eosinophilic syndrome
- History of bleeding disorders, esophageal or gastric varices that, in the opinion of the investigator, would put the participant at undue risk for significant complications from an endoscopy procedure
- Initiation or change of a food-elimination diet regimen or re-introduction of a previously eliminated food group in the 4 weeks prior to the screening visit. Participants on a food-elimination diet must remain on the same diet throughout the study
- Planned or anticipated use of any prohibited medications and procedures during the study
- Planned or anticipated major surgical procedure during the study
- Receiving tube feeding or parenteral nutritional at screening

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Percent change in peak gastric eosinophil count eosinophils/high power field (eos/hpf) Baseline to Week 24
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Proportion of participants achieving a peak gastric eosinophil count of ≤20 eos/hpf Up to 52 Weeks Proportion of participants achieving a peak gastric eosinophil count of ≤30 eos/hpf Up to 52 Weeks Proportion of participants achieving a peak duodenal eosinophil count of ≤30 eos/hpf Up to 52 Weeks Assessed for only those with duodenal involvement
Titer of ADA Up to 52 Weeks Immunogenicity will be characterized per drug molecule by ADA status
Incidence of neutralizing antibody (NAb) to dupilumab Up to 52 Weeks Immunogenicity will be characterized per drug molecule by NAb status
Incidence of treatment-emergent serious adverse events (SAEs) Up to 52 Weeks An SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose:
* Results in death - includes all deaths, even those that appear to be completely unrelated to study drug (eg, a car accident in which a patient is a passenger)
* Is life-threatening
* Requires in-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization
* Results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity
* Is a congenital anomaly/birth defect
* Is an important medical eventChange in frequency of vomiting episodes Baseline up to 52 Weeks Assessed for only those with vomiting at baseline
Change in the Normalized Enrichment Scores (NES) for the type 2 inflammation transcriptome signature Baseline up to 52 Weeks Assessed on gastric tissue
Normalized Enrichment Score (NES) reflects the degree to which the activity level of a set of transcripts is overrepresented at the extremes (top or bottom) of the entire ranked list of transcripts within a sample and is normalized by accounting for the number of transcripts in the set.Change in the NES for the type 2 inflammation transcriptome signature Baseline up to 52 Weeks Assessed on duodenal tissue from participants with EoD
NES reflects the degree to which the activity level of a set of transcripts is overrepresented at the extremes (top or bottom) of the entire ranked list of transcripts within a sample and is normalized by accounting for the number of transcripts in the set.Change in the NES for the EoG disease (EoG diagnostic panel (EGDP]) transcriptome signature Baseline up to 52 Weeks Assessed on gastric tissue
NES reflects the degree to which the activity level of a set of transcripts is overrepresented at the extremes (top or bottom) of the entire ranked list of transcripts within a sample and is normalized by accounting for the number of transcripts in the set.Proportion of participants who receive rescue medications or procedures Up to 52 Weeks Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) Up to 52 Weeks A TEAE is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment.
Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events of special interest (AESIs) Up to 52 Weeks An AESI (serious or non-serious) is one of scientific and medical concern specific to the sponsor's product or program, for which ongoing monitoring and rapid communication by the Investigator to the sponsor can be appropriate. Such an event might warrant further investigation in order to characterize and understand it

Proportion of participants achieving both a peak gastric eosinophil count of ≤20 eos/hpf and a peak duodenal eosinophil count of ≤30 eos/hpf Up to 52 Weeks Absolute change in the EoG/EoD-SQ Total Symptom Score (TSS) Baseline up to 52 Weeks EoG/EoD-SQ is a PRO collected daily via an eDiary. Symptoms are assessed using an 11-point numerical rating scale (0 through 10). Higher scores indicate a higher symptom burden. Symptom scores are summed on each day with a maximum daily score of 60. The TSS is calculated by averaging daily sum scores over 7 days, with a maximum TSS of 60.
