Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of CJM112 in Patients With Inadequately Controlled Severe Asthma

Asthma Clinical Trial

Official title: A Randomized, Subject- and Investigator-blinded, Placebo Controlled, Multi-center, Multiple Dose Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of CJM112 in Patients With Inadequately Controlled Moderate to Severe Asthma

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

An unmet medical need exists for patients with moderate and severe asthma who continue to demonstrate symptoms despite being on standard of care medications, and are not eligible for other biologic therapies developed or in development for T2-high(allergic/eosinophilic) asthma. The purpose of this study was to determine if CJM112, an anti-IL-17A antibody, displayed the clinical efficacy and safety profile to support further development in patients with inadequately controlled moderate to severe asthma with low IgE and low circulating eosinophil levels.

Clinical Trial Description

After an initial screening visit, run-in period and baseline assessments, the eligible subjects entered the treatment period and were randomized in a 3:2 ratio to one of the two treatment groups:

• 300 mg CJM112 s.c. injection received once per week for the first 4 weeks, followed by once every two weeks up to Week 12 (Day 85) + standard of care treatment.

• Matching placebo + standard of care treatment. After completion of the last dose on Day 85 of treatment period, subjects returned for the final efficacy assessment on Day 92. Following the treatment period, all subjects entered a 13-week safety follow-up period, including the End of Study (EoS) visit on Day 176. ;
