Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To evaluate the safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetic properties of Boya's IVIG preparation in participants with PID aged less than 60 years and more than 6 years.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a phase 3, open-label, prospective, single-group, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy of IVIG in keeping the average number of serious bacterial infections to less than one per year. The safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of the investigational product will also be assessed. Fifty male or female participants aged up to 60 years will be selected, with at least 20 participants aged between 06 and 17 years. During the study, at least 20 adult participants will be invited to make up the subgroups evaluating the pharmacokinetic parameters.

The main benefit of IVIG is to help the immune system respond to a wide range of infections, which are often correlated with high morbidity and mortality rates in individuals with PID, particularly in cases of CVID and XLA. In addition, a reduction in the use of medication and hospitalizations is expected, promoting an improvement in the quality of life of these patients.

IVIG therapy is generally safe, although unwanted effects are reported in a proportion ranging from 1% to 81% of patients or infusions, with an average incidence of 30% to 40% among patients and 5% to 15% among infusions. These effects can manifest themselves in varying degrees of intensity, ranging from mild to severe. They can occur immediately, during or shortly after the infusion, as well as late, appearing hours or even days after the procedure. Most adverse events are mild and immediate, occurring in the first few infusions, related to the infusion rate and quickly reversible.

Headache, fever, general malaise, flu-like symptoms, nausea, chills, fatigue, myalgia, low back pain, tachycardia, changes in blood pressure and erythroderma are the most common events. Serious reactions occur in less than 1% of applications and usually with the use of higher doses, indicated in autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.

Special care is needed in patients with comorbidities such as heart disease, nephropathy, liver disease, coagulation disorders (thrombophilia) and diabetes mellitus. In these patients, certain characteristics of IVIG should be assessed, such as the presence of sugars, osmolality, sodium, among others.

Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

NA

Intervention Model

SINGLE_GROUP

Patients with primary immunodeficiency will switch to Boya IVIG and optimize the posology in a run-in period of 2 to 6 administrations. In the one-year test period, the patients will receive the test IVIG at 21- or 28-day intervals and be followed. IgG trough levels will be collected from all participants, at all visits. The remaining pharmacokinetic parameters will be measured between visits 4 and 5 in 20 adult participants, collecting additional blood samples.
Primary Study Purpose

TREATMENT

Blinding Strategy

NONE

The trial will be open-label and single-arm. Therefore, there will be no randomization or blinding.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Boya IVIG

Patients with primary immunodeficiency will switch to Boya IVIG and optimize the posology in a run-in period of 2 to 6 administrations. In the one-year test period, the patients will receive the test IVIG at 21- or 28-day intervals and be followed. The minimum IgG concentration will be measured in all participants at all visits. The other pharmacokinetic parameters will be measured between visits 4 and 5 in 20 adult participants by taking additional blood samples. An independent Safety Data Monitoring Committee (SDMC) will periodically monitor adverse events.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Boya IVIG

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

The initial dose and other dose changes will be determined by the investigator on a case-by-case basis aiming to prevent infection and minimum serum IgG levels of 5 g/L. The total number of doses administered will depend on the treatment regimen and run-in period:

* Between 16 and 20 intravenous injections for participants receiving infusions every 28 days, or;
* Between 21 and 25 intravenous injections for participants receiving infusions every 21 days
