Description

Summary

This study is researching an experimental drug called andecaliximab. The study will include pediatric and adult patients with fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP). The study will evaluate how safe and effective andecaliximab is in patients with FOP.

The study is looking at several research questions, including:

  • Safety of andecaliximab in participants with FOP
  • Whether andecaliximab reduces the number of new heterotopic bone lesions (Heterotopic Ossification; HO)
  • Whether andecaliximab reduces the number or severity of flare-ups
  • Pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD): How much study drug is in your blood at different times and its impact on blood biomarker(s)
  • Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drug (which could make the drug less effective or could lead to side effects)

Official Title

A Phase 2/3, Global, Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Two-Part Study With Open-Label Extension (OLE) to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Andecaliximab in Participants With Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP)

Details

The ASH-FOP-201 Study consists of 2 parts: Part 1 is a Lead-in Study to assess safety, PK/PD and preliminary efficacy; Part 2 is the Main Study, a Phase 2/3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.

Part 1 is composed of Part 1a, a Na18F positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography, less head (CT) Study in up to 6 participants age ≥ 15 years, and Part 1b, a flare-up Study in up to 6 participants ≥ 12 years of age. Participants enrolled in Part 1 will be randomized to one of two dose levels for 13 weeks. Participants in Part 2 will be randomized to one of two dose levels of drug vs. placebo during the 52 week trial. All participants in Part 1 or Part2 will receive study drug in the extension period of the trial.

Eligibility

You can join if…

Open to people ages 2 years and up

(Part 1a, 1b, and 2):

  1. Participant and/or guardian able and willing to give informed consent and/or assent as applicable, and willing to adhere to the visits schedule and study procedures.
  2. Clinical diagnosis of FOP including congenital malformation(s) consistent with FOP (e.g., of the great toes), and either episodic soft tissue swelling consistent with an FOP flare-up and/or progressive HO.
  3. CAJIS score of ≤19. 5. Disease activity within 1 year of screening visit. Disease activity is defined as physician confirmed flare-up like symptoms or clinical progression including newly identified HO or worsening joint function.
  4. Able to understand, undergo, and perform all protocol related procedures, including low-dose WBCT-LH scan without sedation. Assistance from a caregiver is allowed.
  5. Agree to provide access to all relevant current and historical medical records (including radiographs or radiographic records) and growth records.

Inclusion Criteria (Part 1a only):

  1. Male or female ≥ 15 years of age.
  2. Serum creatinine ≤ upper limit of normal for age.
  3. No open growth plates on bilateral PA hand/wrist or AP knee films at baseline
  4. Able to receive IV radiotracer [both IV access and no history of a reaction to radiotracer].
  5. No use of bisphosphonates or bone active agent within the past year.
  6. At least 1 active HO lesion at baseline per Na18F PET/CT

Additional inclusion criteria apply including those listed above for all parts of the study.

Inclusion Criteria (Part 1b only):

  1. Male or female ≥12 years of age.
  2. History of multiple flare-up episodes within the past 6 months (to be reviewed and confirmed as qualifying by the PI together with the Sponsor). Qualifying flare-up episodes include any of the following:
    • At least 3 qualifying flare-ups in the past 6 months each with continuous symptoms for at least 1 week
    • Migratory flare-up swellings across the back
    • Multiple flare-up episodes the sum of which lasted at least 21 days The timing of the individual flare-ups can be overlapping; they may be ongoing at the time of enrollment or resolved.
  3. The qualifying flare-ups must involve at least 2 of the following flare-up symptoms:
    • Pain
    • Soft tissue swelling
    • Warmth
    • Redness
    • Joint stiffness
    • Decreased range of motion

Additional inclusion criteria apply including those listed above for all parts of the study.

Inclusion Criteria (Part 2 only):

  1. Initial enrollment age requirement is ≥12 years
  2. Enrollment may be extended to participants ≥6 years of age after safety in adult and participants age 12-17 years has been established.
  3. Enrollment of participants ≥2 to <6 years of age will commence after safety in adult and participants ≥6 years of age has been established.

Additional inclusion criteria apply including those listed above for all parts of the study.

  3. Planned surgery within the timeframe of the study duration or still recovering from recent surgery.
  4. Respiratory compromise that requires use of supplemental oxygen.
  5. Participant has
    • Known monogenic disorder other than FOP.
    • Bone or mineral disorder unrelated to FOP.
  6. Malignancy (within the past 5 years, except non-melanoma skin cancer, cervical carcinoma in situ, or ductal carcinoma in situ [DCIS]).

  10. Use of the following medication:
