Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Safety and Dose-Finding Study of SYNT001 in Subjects With Pemphigus (Vulgaris or Foliaceus) (NCT NCT03075904)

NCT ID: NCT03075904

Last Updated: 2020-02-05

Results Overview

A TEAE was defined as any adverse event (AE) that starts on or after the first dose of study drug or occurs prior to the first dose and worsens in severity on or after the first dose of study drug, during the Treatment Period and Follow-up Period. A TEAE was considered "serious" (Grade 3) if, in the view of either the investigator or sponsor, it resulted in any of the following outcomes: death, life-threatening adverse drug event, inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, persistent or significant incapacity or substantial disruption of the ability to conduct normal life functions, congenital anomaly/birth defect, or an event that may have jeopardized the participant and may have required medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the previously listed outcomes. A summary of serious and all other non-serious adverse events, regardless of causality, is located in the Reported Adverse Events module.

Participant Flow

This study was terminated after the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and efficacy were characterized at a single dose level (10 milligram/kilogram \[mg/kg\]) in Cohort 1, before any participants were enrolled in Cohort 2. This results disclosure is for Cohort 1 only.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Day 1 (after first dose) through Day 112

Population: All participants who received at least 1 dose of study drug.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline through Day 112

Population: All participants who received at least 1 dose of study drug and had postdose pharmacodynamic data available.

Pharmacodynamic samples were collected for analysis throughout the study. The maximum percent reduction of mean serum total IgG levels from Baseline observed during the study is presented.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline through Day 112

Population: All participants who received at least 1 dose of study drug and had postdose pharmacodynamic data available.

Pemphigus severity and disease activity was measured using the PDAI in regions where a validated questionnaire was available. The PDAI was administered during Treatment Period and Follow-up Period. PDAI total activity was comprised of scores for the skin, mucous membrane, and scalp subscales. The investigator determined a PDAI score as 0 to 250 points for total activity score (0 to 120 for skin, 0 to 10 for scalp, and 0 to 120 for mucosa). A higher score indicated higher impact on skin disease. The maximum percent reduction in PDAI total activity score from Baseline observed during the study is presented.
