Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Obinutuzumab Compared With Placebo in Participants With Lupus Nephritis (LN) (NCT NCT02550652)
NCT ID: NCT02550652
Last Updated: 2024-08-27
Results Overview
Percentage of participants with normalization of serum creatinine, inactive urinary sediment (as evidenced by \< 10 red blood cells (RBCs)/high-power field (HPF) and the absence of red cell casts) and urinary protein to creatinine ratio \< 0.5. Normalization of serum creatinine is defined as serum creatinine ≤ the upper limit of normal (ULN) range of central laboratory values if baseline (Day 1) serum creatinine is above the ULN or serum creatinine ≤ 15% above baseline and ≤ the ULN range of central laboratory values if baseline (Day 1) serum creatinine is above the ULN range of central laboratory values.

Participant Flow
A total of 126 patients were enrolled in the study however one patient randomized to obinutuzumab did not receive study treatment due to a positive pregnancy test, but prior to the first study drug infusion; therefore a total of 125 patients are included in the analysis.

OBINUTUZUMAB 1000MG and MMF
Participants received obinutuzumab 1000 milligrams (mg) intravenous (IV) infusion on Days 1, 15, 168, and 182 along with MMF/MPA at a starting dose of 1500 mg/day (or equivalent) administered orally in 2 or 3 divided doses. MMF/MPA dose was up titrated to a target dose of 2.0 - 2.5 grams per day (g/day) (or equivalent). Investigators, at their discretion, could use MPA as a substitute for MMF, with a 360 mg dose being equivalent to a 500 mg dose of MMF. During screening or at randomization, if clinically indicated, participants could receive 1000 mg methylprednisolone IV once daily for up to 3 days to treat underlying LN clinical activity. Participants received 0.5 mg/kg oral prednisone, tapering this prednisone dose, per protocol, starting on Day 16 and reducing the prednisone dosage to 7.5 mg/day by Week 12.

Timeframe: From Baseline to Week 52Population: Modified intent-to-treat population will include all randomized participants who have received any amount of study drug. Participants who received an incorrect therapy were reported under the treatment arm to which they were randomized.
CRR included normalization of serum creatinine, inactive urinary sediment (as evidenced by \< 10 RBCs/HPF and the absence of red cell casts) and urinary protein to creatinine ratio \< 0.5. Normalization of serum creatinine is defined as serum creatinine ≤ the ULN range of central laboratory values if baseline serum creatinine is above the ULN or serum creatinine ≤ 15% above baseline and ≤ the ULN range of central laboratory values if baseline (Day 1) serum creatinine is ≤ the ULN range of central laboratory values. Percentage of participants with response at various time points were measured using Kaplan Meier method.

Participants received obinutuzumab 1000 milligrams (mg) intravenous (IV) infusion on Days 1, 15, 168, and 182 along with MMF/MPA at a starting dose of 1500 mg/day (or equivalent) administered orally in 2 or 3 divided doses. MMF/MPA dose was up titrated to a target dose of 2.0 - 2.5 grams per day (g/day) (or equivalent). Investigators, at their discretion, could use MPA as a substitute for MMF, with a 360 mg dose being equivalent to a 500 mg dose of MMF. During screening or at randomization, if clinically indicated, participants could receive 1000 mg methylprednisolone IV once daily for up to 3 days to treat underlying LN clinical activity. Participants received 0.5 mg/kg oral prednisone, tapering this prednisone dose, per protocol, starting on Day 16 and reducing the prednisone dosage to 7.5 mg/day by Week 12.

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with the treatment. An adverse event can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a pharmaceutical product, whether or not considered related to the pharmaceutical product. Preexisting conditions which worsen during a study are also considered as adverse events. AEs, including AEs of Special Interest were reported based on the national cancer institute common terminology criteria for AEs, Version 4.0 (NCI-CTCAE, v4.0). Reported are the number of subjects with AEs, Grade 3-5 AEs, and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), Infections and Serious infections. The AEs reported do not include events after the receipt of rescue medications.

MMF/MPA dose was up titrated to a target dose of 2.0 - 2.5 grams per day (g/day) (or equivalent). Investigators, at their discretion, could use MPA as a substitute for MMF, with a 360 mg dose being equivalent to a 500 mg dose of MMF. During screening or at randomization, if clinically indicated, participants could receive 1000 mg methylprednisolone IV once daily for up to 3 days to treat underlying LN clinical activity. Participants received 0.5 mg/kg oral prednisone, tapering this prednisone dose, per protocol, starting on Day 16 and reducing the prednisone dosage to 7.5 mg/day by Week 12.

OBINUTUZUMAB 1000MG + MMF
n=64 participants at risk
Participants received obinutuzumab 1000 milligrams (mg) intravenous (IV) infusion on Days 1, 15, 168, and 182 along with MMF/MPA at a starting dose of 1500 mg/day (or equivalent) administered orally in 2 or 3 divided doses. MMF/MPA dose was up titrated to a target dose of 2.0 - 2.5 grams per day (g/day) (or equivalent). Investigators, at their discretion, could use MPA as a substitute for MMF, with a 360 mg dose being equivalent to a 500 mg dose of MMF. During screening or at randomization, if clinically indicated, participants could receive 1000 mg methylprednisolone IV once daily for up to 3 days to treat underlying LN clinical activity. Participants received 0.5 mg/kg oral prednisone, tapering this prednisone dose, per protocol, starting on Day 16 and reducing the prednisone dosage to 7.5 mg/day by Week 12.

MMF/MPA dose was up titrated to a target dose of 2.0 - 2.5 g/day (or equivalent). Investigators, at their discretion, could use MPA as a substitute for MMF, with a 360 mg dose being equivalent to a 500 mg dose of MMF.
