About this study

Official title: A 52-week, Placebo-controlled, Randomized, Phase 3 Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Seladelpar in Subjects With Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) and an Inadequate Response to or an Intolerance to Ursodeoxycholic Acid (UDCA)

A 52-week, placebo-controlled, randomized, Phase 3 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of seladelpar in subjects with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) and an inadequate response to or intolerance to ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA)

The participants might enter the ongoing open-label safety study (NCT03301506) following this double-blind study.

Read the detailed description

Primary:

  • To evaluate the safety and effect on cholestasis of two seladelpar regimens (5 mg/day titrated to 10 mg/day and 10 mg/day) over 52 weeks of treatment compared to placebo

Key Secondary:

  • To evaluate the effect of seladelpar on normalization of alkaline phosphatase (AP) levels
  • To evaluate the effect of seladelpar on pruritus
Being tested
seladelpar 5-10 mg, seladelpar 10 mg, Placebo

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • seladelpar 5-10 mgDrug

    Seladelpar 5 mg for 6 months and then titrating up to 10 mg based on tolerability and response for remainder of double-blind period. After completion of the 1-year double-blind period subjects will be offered the opportunity to enter an open label long term safety study. Subjects will continue the seladelpar dose (5 or 10 mg) received during the double-blinded study

  • seladelpar 10 mgDrug

    Seladelpar 10 mg for double-blind period. After completion of the 1-year double-blind period subjects will be offered the opportunity to enter an open label safety study. Subjects will continue the seladelpar dose (10 mg) received during the double-blinded study

  • PlaceboDrug

    One capsule daily for double-blind period. After completion of the 1-year double-blind period subjects will be offered the opportunity to enter an open label long term safety study. Subjects on placebo will be re-randomized to initiate seladelpar at 5 or 10 mg once daily

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Percentage of Participants With Response to Composite Endpoint of ALP <1.67 × Upper Limit of Normal [ULN], ≥15% Reduction in ALP, and Total Bilirubin ≤ ULN) at Month 3

    Percentage of Participants with Response to Composite Endpoint of ALP <1.67 × Upper Limit of Normal [ULN], ≥15% reduction in ALP, and total bilirubin ≤ ULN) at Month 3. The mITT analysis set included all randomized subjects who received at least one study drug dose.

    The primary endpoint was analyzed using Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel (CMH) test adjusted for both randomization stratification variables (ALP level: <350 U/L and 2:350 U/L; pruritus NRS: <4 and 2:4). The CMH tests were performed for the comparison of 10 mg versus placebo and 5 mg/10 mg versus placebo separately.

    Measured: Month 3

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Percentage of Participants With Response Defined by Normalized Alkaline Phosphatase Levels at Month 3

    The response was defined by normalized ALP levels (ALP ≤1.0 × ULN) at endpoint. The mITT analysis set included all randomized subjects who received at least one study drug dose.

    Measured: Month 3

  2. Change From Baseline in Pruritus NRS for Subjects With Baseline NRS ≥4 at Month 3

    Pruritus Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) used to rate the intensity of the worst itching you experienced in the past 24 hours from no itching to worst possible itching by selecting a number from 0 to 10 on Itch Scale. Zero means no itching and 10 means worst imaginable itching. The analysis will be limited to those subjects in the mITT analysis set with a baseline NRS ≥ 4.

    Measured: Month 3

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing seladelpar 5-10 mg and seladelpar 10 mg in people with Primary Biliary Cholangitis, run by Gilead Sciences at 156 sites in 23 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 9 inclusion and 36 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Aug 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 156 sites in United States, Spain, United Kingdom, Germany, Israel and 18 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 31 May 2022). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of Participants With Response to Composite Endpoint of ALP <1.67 × Upper Limit of Normal [ULN], ≥15% Reduction in ALP, and Total Bilirubin ≤ ULN) at Month 3 (time frame: Month 3). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03602560, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Aug 2022.
