About this study
Official title: A Phase 2b/Phase 3, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebocontrolled, Multicenter Study, to Investigate the Efficacy and Safety of Lunsekimig in Adult Participants With Inadequately Controlled Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Characterized by an Eosinophilic Phenotype
This is a parallel, Phase 2b/Phase 3, 3-arm study to investigate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of subcutaneous (SC) treatment with lunsekimig compared with placebo in adult participants (aged 40 to 80 years, inclusive) with inadequately controlled Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) characterized by an eosinophilic phenotype.
Participation to the study consists of 3 periods:
- Screening period of up to 4 weeks
- Randomized intervention period of approximately 48 weeks
- Follow-up period: Approximately 8 weeks The study duration will be up to 60 weeks.
Read the detailed description
All eligible participants will undergo subcutaneous administrations of lunsekimig or matching placebo during a 48-weeks treatment period
- Conditions
- Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
- Being tested
- Lunsekimig, Placebo
- Medical subject headings
- Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive
What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
LunsekimigDrug
Also called SAR443765
Pharmaceutical form: solution for injection in prefilled syringe. Route of administration: Subcutaneous injection
PlaceboDrug
Pharmaceutical form: solution for injection. Route of administration: Subcutaneous injection
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Lunsekimig dose regimen A | Experimental | Participants will receive lunsekimig dose regimen A. Receives: Drug: Lunsekimig |
| Lunsekimig dose regimen B | Experimental | Participants will receive lunsekimig dose regimen B Receives: Drug: Lunsekimig |
| Placebo | Placebo comparator | Participants will receive lunsekimig-matching placebo Receives: Drug: Placebo |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Annualized rate of moderate-to-severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbations
The annualized moderate or severe COPD exacerbation rate up to 48 weeks treatment period compared to placebo
Measured: From Baseline up to 48 weeks
Secondary outcomes (15)
Change from baseline in post-Bronchodilator Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (post-BD FEV1)
The post-Bronchodilator Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second is defined as the volume of air exhaled from the lungs in the first second of a forced expiration.
Measured: From Baseline up to 48 weeks
Change from baseline in pre-Bronchodilator Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (pre-BD FEV1)
The pre-Bronchodilator Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second is defined as the volume of air exhaled from the lungs in the first second of a forced expiration.
Measured: From Baseline up to 48 weeks
Change from baseline in the SGRQ-C total score
The St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is derived from the St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) and is designed to measure and quantify health status in adult patients with chronic airflow limitation. A global score ranges from 0 to 100 with lower scores indicating better quality-of-life.
Measured: From Baseline up to 48 weeks
SGRQ responder defined as an improvement of ≥4 points in the SGRQ-C total score
Measured: From Baseline up to 48 weeks
Change from baseline in the Chronic airways assessment Test (CAAT) score
The CAAT is an 8-item patient-reported outcome (PRO) measure designed to assess the impact of chronic airways diseases, including COPD, on patients' health status. The CAAT has a scoring range of 0-40, with higher scores indicating a greater impact of the disease on health status.
Measured: From Baseline up to 48 weeks
CAAT responder defined as an improvement of ≥2 points in the CAAT total score
Measured: From Baseline up to 48 weeks
Change from baseline in the E-RS:COPD total score
The Evaluating Respiratory Symptoms in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (E-RS:COPD) is an 11-item patient-reported outcome (PRO) measure that evaluates the severity of respiratory symptoms in patients with stable COPD. The total score ranges from 0 to 40, with higher scores indicating more severe respiratory symptoms.
Measured: From Baseline up to 48 weeks
E-RS:COPD responder defined as an improvement of ≥2 points in the E-RS:COPD total score
Measured: From Baseline up to 48 weeks
Annualized rate of severe COPD exacerbations
Measured: From Baseline up to 48 weeks
Time to first moderate or severe COPD exacerbation
Time to first occurrence of moderate to severe COPD exacerbation up to 48 weeks
Measured: From Baseline up to 48 weeks
Time to first severe COPD exacerbation
Time to first occurrence of severe COPD exacerbation up to 48 weeks
Measured: From Baseline up to 48 weeks
Incidence of participants with TEAEs, including AESIs, and SAEs
Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Adverse events of Special Interest (AESIs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)
Measured: From Baseline up to 56 weeks
Incidence of potentially clinically significant laboratory abnormalities
Measured: From Baseline up to 56 weeks
Serum concentration of lunsekimig
Measured: From Baseline up to 48 weeks
Incidence and titer of antidrug antibodies (ADAs)
Measured: From Baseline up to 48 weeks
