简要总结
The study evaluated the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of VAY736 in the treatment of patients with pemphigus vulagaris (PV).
详细描述
This was a non-confirmatory, randomized, partial-blind, placebo-controlled trial evaluating the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of VAY736 in the treatment of PV patients.
A total of 13 patients were enrolled and randomized into the study. Of these 13 patients,seven were randomized to the 3 mg/kg VAY736 group, two were randomized to the 10 mg/kg VAY736 group and four were randomized to the placebo group.In the placebo group, three out of the four patients consented to open-label VAY736 treatment and received 10 mg/kg VAY736 after Week 24 onwards. Thus, a total of 12 patients received VAY736, 7 patients received 3 mg/kg and 5 patients 10 mg/kg.
The Screening period consisted of a Screening Visit performed within 28 days prior to randomization to assess patient eligibility. Following Screening, patients underwent pre-dose procedures which included assessment of their PV by Pemphigus Disease Area Index (PDAI), Autoimmune Bullous Skin disease Intensity Score (ABSIS) and Investigator Global Assessment (IGA), and blood sampling for PK endpoints. Patients then received the study drug, which was administered over approximately a 2 hour period. The patients remained in the study center overnight post-infusion for observation and for measurement of safety parameters and PK samples approximately 24 h post-infusion (start of infusion: ±2 h). Patients were then discharged from the study site and returned as per the schedule. Patients were evaluated at Week 1, Week 2 and Week 3, then every 3 weeks through to Week 12, and every 4 weeks through to Week 24. At Week 24, the blind was broken to confirm treatment allocation. If a patient was on placebo, such patient completing the Week 24 visit and after unblinding had the option of receiving open label VAY736 10mg/kg.
Recruitment was paused in Mar-2015 and at the time 13 patients were enrolled. The study recruitment was then terminated in Dec-2015 for strategic reasons related to the development of the compound.

结局指标
主要结局
Pemphigus Disease Area Index (PDAI) at Week 12
时间窗: Week 12
PDAI is specific cutaneous and mucosal disease activity assessment performed by investigator based on evaluation of lesions in well-defined anatomical locations. The score weighted for the number and size of lesions with score of 0 (absent) to 10 given for skin (12 body locations), scalp and mucous membrane showing disease activity (erosions/blisters or new erythema). Damage, such as post inflammatory hyperpigmentation or erythema from resolving lesion, scored separately from the main score as absent (0) or present (1) for each body area or scalp resulting in a score of 0 to 12 or 0 to 1, respectively. Thus, PDAI ranged from 0 to 263, with 250 points representing disease activity (120 points for skin activity; 10 points for scalp activity; 120 points for mucosal activity) and 13 points representing disease damage.
