Clinical Trial Summary

The primary objective of the study is to investigate the efficacy of repeat oral dosing of BIIB074 on paroxysmal pain in participants with Primary Inherited Erythromelalgia (EM). The secondary objective of the study is to investigate the efficacy of repeat oral dosing of BIIB074 on varying additional aspects of pain in participants with EM; and to investigate the safety and tolerability of repeat oral dosing of BIIB074 in participants with EM.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Weekly average severity of paroxysms 11-point Pain Intensity Numerical Rating Scale (PI-NRS) is used to assess EM paroxysmal pain. PI-NRS is an 11-point pain intensity numerical rating scale, where 0=no pain and 10=worst possible pain.
Weekly average is defined as the total of severity scores during a week divided by the total number of paroxysms during that week.
Day 1 to Week 12
Secondary Weekly maximum severity of paroxysms The weekly maximum severity is the maximum paroxysm severity recorded by a participant in a given week. Day 1 to Week 12
Secondary Weekly average and maximum number of paroxysms Day 1 to Week 12
Secondary Weekly average and weekly maximum duration of paroxysms Day 1 to Week 12
Secondary Weekly average and weekly maximum of daily background pain Each participant provides a daily background pain score via a diary that records background daily pain intensity using a numerical rating scale from 0-10 with higher scores indicating worse pain. Day 1 to Week 12
Secondary Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) score PGIC is a 7-point self-report scale depicting a participant's rating of overall improvement. Participants rate their change as "very much improved," "much improved," "minimally improved," "no change," "minimally worse," "much worse," or "very much worse." Day 1 to Week 12
Secondary Weekly average and weekly maximum number of pain-mitigating activities Participant diary is used to record pain mitigating cooling activities that include but are not limited to use of cold water or fan. Day 1 to Week 12
Secondary Weekly average and weekly maximum duration of pain-mitigating activities Participant diary is used to record pain mitigating activities that include but are not limited to use of cooling, and breathing/relaxation and mental imagery techniques. Day 1 to Week 12
Secondary Use of rescue medication Day 1 to Week 13
Secondary Weekly average and weekly maximum of the daily sleep interference scale Daily Sleep Interference Scale (DSIS) describes how much EM pain interfered with the participant's sleep with 0 indicating "pain did not interfere with sleep" and 10 indicating "pain completely interfered with sleep". Day 1 to Week 12
Secondary Weekly average and weekly maximum number of awakenings at night due to EM pain Day 1 to Week 12
Secondary Number of participants experiencing adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) Up to Week 13
Secondary Number of participants with clinically significant vital sign abnormalities Up to Week 13
Secondary Number of participants with clinically significant 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs) abnormalities Up to Week 13
Secondary Number of participants with clinically significant laboratory safety test abnormalities Up to Week 13
Secondary Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) assessment C-SSRS is a suicidal ideation rating used to evaluate suicidality. It rates an individual's degree of suicidal ideation on a scale, ranging from "wish to be dead" to "active suicidal ideation with specific plan and intent." Up to Week 13
