Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH) With Signs of Active Hemolysis Clinical Trial
Official title:
An Open Label, Single Arm, Multiple Dose Study to Assess Efficacy, Safety, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of LNP023 When Administered in Addition to Standard of Care (SoC) in Patients With Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH) With Signs of Active Hemolysis
This was a Phase 2, open label, single arm, multiple dose study to assess efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of iptacopan when administered in addition to Standard of care (SoC) in patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) with signs of active hemolysis.
LNP023 is a novel oral small molecular weight compound that inhibits factor B (FB) of the alternative pathway (AP). Blockade of the AP with oral LNP023 has the potential to prevent both intra - and extravascular hemolysis. This two-cohort study consisted of a screening period of up to 68 days, a baseline visit, and Treatment periods Part 1 and Part 2. The planned duration of Treatment Part 1 was 13 weeks; the planned duration of Treatment Part 2 (treatment extension for patients who benefit from LNP023 treatment in Part 1 of the study based on reduced hemolytic parameters) was between approximately 2 to 3 years. Cohort 1: Orally administered iptacopan 200 mg b.i.d. in Part 1 and Part 2 in addition to SoC. Cohort 2: Orally administered iptacopan 50 mg b.i.d. for a minimum of 2 weeks in addition to SoC; this could be increased to iptacopan 200 mg b.i.d. at study day 15 or at any time later in the study if LDH was not within limit of normal or reduced by at least 60% as compared to baseline values. End of Study (EoS) visit happened 2 weeks after last LNP023 administration for patients not joining the roll over extension program (REP). A safety follow-up call was conducted 30 days after last administration of study treatment (applicable only for patients not joining the REP). ;
