A Study of PRN1008 in Adult Patients With Pemphigus Vulgaris

Principia Biopharma, a Sanofi Company42 enrolled

Overview

Open-label cohort study in adult patients with newly diagnosed or relapsing pemphigus vulgaris, with intra-patient dose-adjustment based on clinical response and BTK occupancy, and with conventional immunosuppressive "rescue treatment", if indicated. The duration of therapy in Part A will be 12 weeks, followed by 12 weeks of follow up. The extension phase, Part B includes 24 weeks of therapy, followed by 4 weeks of follow-up.

Primary Objectives: To evaluate the safety of PRN1008 in patients with pemphigus vulgaris (PV) To evaluate the clinical activity of PRN1008 in patients with PV, per criteria in the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology (EADV) 2014 Pemphigus S2 Guideline (Hertl et al. 2015) Secondary Objectives To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) and the pharmacodynamics (PD) of multiple doses of PRN1008 in patients with PV To evaluate the relationship of PK and PD to each other and to efficacy and safety in this patient population

Part A dosing was initiated administering 400 mg BID. Intrapatient dose adjustments (reductions and increases) were permitted based upon tolerability and clinical response with the maximum dose allowed up to 600 mg BID for 12 weeks. Part B initial dosing was 400 mg QD for 2 weeks with dose escalation to 400 mg BID at the discretion of the Investigator for the purposes of investigating dose response and identifying the minimal efficacious dose of rilzabrutinib for 24 weeks.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Percentage of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events

Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) including clinically significant changes in physical examination, laboratory tests, and vital signs. An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug and did not necessarily had to have a causal relationship with the treatment. TEAEs were defined as AEs that developed or worsened or became serious during on-treatment phase that was defined as the time from the start of study drug up to study completion.

Time frame: Part A: until 24 weeks and Part B: until 28 weeks

Percentage of Participants Who Are Able to Achieve Control of Disease Activity (CDA) Within 4 Weeks of Starting PRN1008 Treatment Without the Need for Doses of Prednisone or Prednisolone >0.5 mg/kg

CDA was defined as the time at which new lesions cease to form and established lesions begin to heal.

Time frame: 4 weeks

Secondary Outcomes

Percentage of Participants Able to Achieve Control of Disease Activity (CDA) Without Corticosteroids Within 4 Weeks

CDA was defined as the time at which new lesions cease to form and established lesions begin to heal.

Time frame: 4 weeks

Percentage of Participants Able to Achieve a Complete Response (CR) Without Corticosteroids

CR was defined as complete healing of all lesions and the absence of new lesions.

Time frame: Part A: 12 weeks treatment and Part B: 24 weeks treatment

Percentage of Participants Able to Achieve Complete Remission (CR) Without the Need for Doses of Prednisone or Prednisolone of Greater Than 0.5mg/kg

CR was defined as complete healing of all lesions and the absence of new lesions.

Time frame: Part A: 12 weeks treatment and Part B: 24 weeks treatment
