Overview

A Phase 3 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of birtamimab plus standard of care compared to placebo plus standard of care in Mayo Stage IV patients with AL amyloidosis.

Description

This is a Phase 3 multicenter, global, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of birtamimab in Mayo Stage IV patients with AL amyloidosis (i.e., Double-blind Phase), followed by a long-term, open-label extension (i.e., Open-label Extension [OLE] Phase). The primary objective of the Double-blind Phase is to evaluate the efficacy of birtamimab by assessing time to all-cause mortality. All patients will receive bortezomib-containing chemotherapy regimen as standard of care.

For the Double-blind Phase of the study, approximately 220 newly diagnosed Mayo Stage IV patients with AL amyloidosis will be enrolled and randomized in a 2:1 ratio to birtamimab or placebo. Subjects will remain on study until study completion, when the pre-defined number of events (all-cause mortality) have been reached.

After completion of the Double-blind Phase, eligible subjects may enter the optional OLE Phase, in which all subjects will receive open-label birtamimab treatment, regardless of Double-blind Phase randomized treatment assignment. Treatment in the OLE Phase will continue for an additional 24 months or until birtamimab is commercially available in a subject's country of residence, whichever occurs first (in accordance with country-specific regulations). The primary objective of the OLE Phase is to evaluate the long-term safety of birtamimab plus standard of care in Mayo Stage IV subjects with AL amyloidosis.

Eligibility

Key Inclusion Criteria for Double-blind Phase:

  • Aged ≥18 years and legal age of consent according to local regulations
  • Newly diagnosed and AL amyloidosis treatment-naïve with cardiac involvement
  • Confirmed diagnosis of AL amyloidosis
  • Confirmed Mayo Stage IV AL Amyloidosis as defined by NT-proBNP ≥1800 pg/mL and Troponin-T ≥0.025 ng/mL or high sensitivity cardiac troponin T≥40ng/L and dFLC ≥18 mg/dL
  • Planned first-line chemotherapy contains bortezomib administered subcutaneously weekly

Inclusion Criteria for Open-label (OLE) Phase:

  • Must not have discontinued treatment in Double-blind Phase
  • WOCBP must have a negative pregnancy test and must agree to use highly effective contraception through 90 days following last study drug administration
  • Male subjects must be surgically sterile or agree to use highly effective contraception through 90 days following last study drug administration
  • Ability to understand and willingness to sign an ICF prior to initiating the OLE Phase

Key Exclusion Criteria for Double-blind Phase:

  • Non-AL amyloidosis
  • NT-proBNP >8500 pg/mL
  • Meets the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) definition of multiple myeloma except for malignancy biomarker of involved/uninvolved serum free light chain ratio ≥100
  • Subject is eligible for and plans to undergo ASCT or organ transplant during the study
  • Myocardial infarction, uncontrolled angina, severe uncontrolled ventricular arrhythmias, or ECG evidence of acute ischemia, within 6 months prior to the Month 1-Day 1 Visit
  • Severe valvular stenosis (e.g., aortic or mitral stenosis with a valve area <1.0 cm2) or severe congenital heart disease
  • ECG evidence of acute ischemia or active conduction system abnormalities
  • Prior treatment with hematopoietic growth factors, transfusions of blood or blood products within 1 week of Month 1-Day 1
  • Prior radiotherapy within 4 weeks of Month 1-Day 1
  • Prior treatment with plasma cell-directed chemotherapy, birtamimab, daratumumab, 11- 1F4, anti-serum amyloid P antibody, doxycycline for amyloid, or other investigational treatment directed at amyloid
  • Waldenström's macroglobulinemia and/or immunoglobulin M monoclonal gammopathy

Exclusion Criteria for OLE Phase:

  • Any medical condition or clinically significant abnormality on physical, neurological, laboratory, vital signs, or ECG examination that precludes treatment with birtamimab or participation in the study, in the medical judgment of the Investigator
  • Symptomatic orthostatic hypotension that in the medical judgment of the Investigator would interfere with subject's ability to safely receive treatment or complete study assessments
  • History of Grade ≥3 infusion-related AEs during the Double-blind Phase or hypersensitivity to birtamimab
  • Unable or unwilling to adhere to the study-specified procedures and restrictions
  • Planning to use any other investigational treatment during the study

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
