Study Evaluating IGSC 20% Flexible Dosing in Treatment-Experienced and Treatment-Naive Subjects With Primary Immunodeficiency

Withdrawn before enrolling · Phase 3

Conditions studied: Primary Immunodeficiency

In brief

This is a prospective, multi-center, randomized, open-label, 2-period cross-over study (16 weeks per treatment period) to evaluate flexible dosing and daily push dosing of IGSC 20% in treatment-experienced subjects with PI. An additional, separate cohort of treatment-naïve, non-randomized subjects who will not be part of the crossover are included and will receive a loading dose of 5 consecutive daily doses of IGSC 20% followed by weekly infusions of IGSC 20% starting Week 1 (Day 8) through Week 32 (end of Treatment Phase). For treatment-experienced subjects, the study consists of a Screening Visit, Baseline Visit, 16-week Treatment Period 1, 16-week Treatment Period 2, and Final Visit/Early Termination Visit. For treatment-naïve subjects, the study consists of a Screening Visit, a Baseline Visit, a 32-week Treatment Phase, and Final Visit/Early Termination Visit. Approximately 54 treatment-experienced subjects and approximately 6 treatment-naïve subjects will be enrolled at study centers in the United States (US) and European Union (EU).

Who can join

Age: 2 and older, up to 75. Sex: any. Healthy volunteers: not accepted.

You may qualify if…

• For treatment-experienced subjects:
• Has documented and confirmed pre-existing diagnosis of PI with features of hypogammaglobulinemia requiring IgG replacement therapy including but not limited to the following humoral-based immunodeficiency syndromes (eg, X-linked agammaglobulinemia, common variable immunodeficiency), and combined immunodeficiency syndromes without lymphocytopenia (eg, hyper immunoglobulin M immunodeficiency syndrome).
• Has not had a SBI or been hospitalized for infection of any etiology (eg, viral, fungal, parasitic) within the last 3 months prior to screening or during screening.
• Is currently receiving IgG replacement therapy for ≥3 months via IV or SC infusion. Subjects receiving IVIG prior to study must receive a dosage of at least 200 mg/kg per infusion
• Has Screening IgG trough levels ≥500 mg/dL. Note: If screening trough levels are not above this threshold, the subjects will be considered a screen failure, but may be rescreened following dose adjustment of their original IgG replacement therapy regimen and maintaining stable dosing for a period of at least 3 months prior to screening a second time.
• Has signed an informed consent. Note: The subject must sign the informed consent form (ICF) if at least 18 years old; for children of younger age, the subject's parent or legal guardian must sign the ICF and if appropriate/applicable, the subject must sign a Child Assent form approved by the IRB/EC per the institution's requirements
• For treatment-naïve subjects:
• Has documented and confirmed diagnosis of PI with features of hypogammaglobulinemia requiring IgG replacement therapy including but not limited to the following humoral-based immunodeficiency syndromes (eg, X-linked agammaglobulinemia, common variable immunodeficiency), and combined immunodeficiency syndromes without lymphocytopenia (eg, hyper immunoglobulin M immunodeficiency syndrome).
• Has never received IgG replacement treatment (ie, no prior immune globulin replacement therapy)
• Has Screening IgG level ≤400 mg/dL
• Does not have an SBI nor requires hospitalization for infection of any etiology (eg, viral, fungal, parasitic) during screening or at baseline.
• Has signed an informed consent. Note: The subject must sign the informed consent form (ICF) if at least 18 years old; for children of younger age, the subject's parent or legal guardian must sign the ICF and if appropriate/applicable, the subject must sign a Child Assent form approved by the IRB/EC per the institution's requirements

You may not qualify if…

• For all subjects:
• Has clinical evidence of any significant acute or chronic disease that, in the opinion of the investigator, may interfere with successful completion of the trial or place the subject at undue medical risk.
• Has had a known serious adverse reaction to immunoglobulin or any anaphylactic reaction to blood or any blood-derived product
• Has a history of blistering skin disease, clinically significant thrombocytopenia, bleeding disorder, diffuse rash, recurrent skin infections, or other disorders where SC therapy would be contraindicated during the study.
• Has known isolated IgG subclass deficiency; isolated specific antibody deficiency (SAD) or selective IgG deficiency; or transient hypogammaglobulinemia of infancy. Note: Subjects are not to be enrolled if their primary PI diagnosis does not entail an actual quantitative deficit in total IgG. For example, SAD is defined as an impaired specific IgG response to pneumococcal vaccine with normal serum concentrations of IgG, IgM, and IgA. Isolated IgG subclass deficiency is defined as an abnormally low level of 1 or more IgG subclass in subjects with normal levels of total IgG and IgM.
• Has known selective IgA deficiency (with or without antibodies to IgA) (Note: exclusion is for the specific diagnostic entity. It does not exclude other forms of humoral primary immunodeficiency which have decreased IgA in addition to decreased IgG requiring IgG replacement).
• Is female of childbearing potential who is pregnant, has a positive pregnancy test at screening (serum human chorionic gonadotropin [HCG]- based assay), is breastfeeding, or is unwilling to practice a highly effective method of contraception (oral, injectable or implanted hormonal methods of contraception, placement of an intrauterine device or intrauterine system, condom or occlusive cap with spermicidal foam/gel/film/cream/suppository, male sterilization, or true abstinence) throughout the study. Note: True abstinence: When this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject. (Periodic abstinence [eg, calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods], declaration of abstinence for the duration of a trial, and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception.)
• Has significant proteinuria (≥3+ or known urinary protein loss >1 g/24 hours or nephrotic syndrome), has acute renal failure, is on dialysis, and/or has severe renal impairment on Screening laboratory testing (blood urea nitrogen or creatinine more than 2.5 times the upper limit of normal [ULN]).
• Has screening values of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels exceeding more than 2.5 times the ULN for the expected normal range for the testing laboratory.
• Has hemoglobin <9 g/dL at screening.
• Has a history (either 1 episode within the year prior to the Screening Visit or 2 previous episodes over a lifetime) of or current diagnosis of thromboembolism (eg, myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accident or transient ischemic attack) or deep venous thrombosis.
• Is currently receiving anti-coagulation therapy which would make SC administration inadvisable (vitamin K antagonists, nonvitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants [eg, dabigatran etexilate targeting Factor IIa, rivaroxaban, edoxaban, and apixaban targeting Factor Xa], and parenteral anticoagulants [eg, fondaparinux]).
• Currently has a known hyperviscosity syndrome.
• Has an acquired medical condition that is known to cause secondary immune deficiency, such as chronic lymphocytic leukemia, lymphoma, multiple myeloma, chronic or recurrent neutropenia (absolute neutrophil count less than 1000/μL [1.0 x 10\^9/L]), or human immunodeficiency virus infection/acquired immune deficiency syndrome.
• Has a known previous infection with or clinical signs and symptoms consistent with current hepatitis B virus or hepatitis C virus infection.
• If <18 years of age, has non-controlled arterial hypertension at a level of greater than or equal to the 90th percentile blood pressure (either systolic or diastolic) for their age and height or the adult subject has non- controlled arterial hypertension (systolic blood pressure [SBP] >160 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure [DBP] >100 mmHg).
• Is receiving any of the following medications:
• immunosuppressants including chemotherapeutic agents;
• immunomodulators; (c) long-term systemic corticosteroids defined as daily dose >1 mg of prednisone equivalent/kg/day for >30 days. Note: Intermittent courses of corticosteroids of not more than 10 days would not exclude a subject. Inhaled or topical corticosteroids are allowed.
• Has known substance or prescription drug abuse.
• Has participated in another clinical trial within 30 days prior to screening (observational studies without investigative treatments [non- interventional] are permitted) or has received any investigational blood product with the exception of other IgG products within the previous 3 months.
• Is a subject/caregiver unwilling to comply with any aspect of the protocol, including home SC infusions, blood sampling, and completion of a SC infusion diary for the duration of the study.
• Is a mentally challenged subject who cannot give independent informed consent or assent.
• In the opinion of the investigator, the subject may have compliance problems with the protocol and the procedures of the protocol.
