About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Multicenter Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Oral BTK Inhibitor Rilzabrutinib (PRN1008) in Moderate to Severe Pemphigus

This was a Phase 3 randomized, parallel-group, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial (blinded treatment [BT] period) followed by an open-label extension [OLE] period intended to evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral PRN1008 in moderate to severe pemphigus. After completing the open-label extension period, eligible participants might continue in a long term extension (LTE) Period of 48 weeks.

Read the detailed description

A total of 131 male or female participants with newly diagnosed or relapsing moderate to severe pemphigus (pemphigus vulgaris [PV] or pemphigus foliaceus [PF]) were enrolled in the trial worldwide.

The trial would last 68 weeks (approximately 17 months) for each participant. For participants eligible to enroll in the LTE, the trial might last up to 116 weeks.

Participants were randomized at Day 1, using a 1:1 ratio to receive PRN1008 or placebo twice per day, by relapsing/newly diagnosed disease history (newly diagnosed defined as within 6 months of screening).

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants Who Achieved Complete Remission (CR) With a Corticosteroids Dose of Less Than or Equal to (<=) 10 mg/Day From Week 29 to Week 37: Pemphigus Vulgaris Participants in Modified Intent-to-Treat (PV mITT) Population

    Complete remission was defined as absence of new and established lesions and was intended to mean "no disease activity" for 2 consecutive weeks, with Pemphigus Disease Area Index (PDAI) activity score =0 and CS dose <=10 mg. PDAI score weighted for number and size of lesions with score of 0 (absent) to 10 given for skin (12 body locations), scalp and mucous membrane showing disease activity (erosions/blisters or new erythema). PDAI total score ranged from 0 to 250 points representing disease activity (120 points for skin activity; 10 points for scalp activity; 120 points for mucosal activity). Higher score indicated more disease activity. In this outcome measure (OM), percentage of participants who achieved CR while on a daily corticosteroids dose of <=10 mg/day were reported.

    ABQOL, a 17-item questionnaire is a valid and reliable tool to assess quality of life in participants with autoimmune blistering diseases. Each question score ranged from 0 to 3 points, 0 = never, 1 = occasionally, 2 = sometimes and 3 = all the time, where higher score = poor QOL. The total ABQoL score was calculated by summing the score of each question and it ranged from 0 to 51, where higher score = more QOL impairment. Percentage of participants with ABQOL score of '0' were reported in this outcome measure.

  24. Change From Baseline in the European Quality of Life Working Group Health Status Measure 5 Dimensions, 5 Levels Score: Individual Dimension at Weeks 5, 13, 25, 37, 61, and 109

    EQ-5D-5L: standardized measure of health status that provides general assessment of health and wellbeing. The EQ-5D descriptive system comprises 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has a 5-level response: no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems, and extreme problems. Response options are measured with a 5-point Likert scale (for the 5L version). The 5D-5L systems are converted into a single index utility score between 0 to 1, where higher score indicates a better health state and lower score indicate worse health state.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Rilzabrutinib in people with Pemphigus, run by Principia Biopharma, a Sanofi Company at 88 sites in 19 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 5 inclusion and 13 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Aug 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 88 sites in United States, Germany, Italy, France, Poland and 14 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 21 Sep 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 Who Achieved Complete Remission (CR) With a Corticosteroids Dose of Less Than or Equal to (<=) 10 mg/Day From Week 29 to Week 37: Pemphigus Vulgaris Participants in Modified Intent-to-Treat (PV mITT) Population (time frame: From Week 29 to Week 37). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 2023.
