Primary Objective:

  • To assess the long term safety of Sarilumab (SAR153191/REGN88) in participants with ankylosing spondylitis (AS)

Secondary Objective:

  • To assess the long term efficacy of Sarilumab (SAR153191/REGN88) in participants with AS

The maximum study duration per participant was to be 267 weeks (approximately 5 years) broken down as follows:

  • screening up to a maximum of 1 week;
  • treatment up to a maximum of 260 weeks;
  • follow-up of 6 weeks after treatment discontinuation.
Being tested

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Percentage of Participants Experiencing Any Treatment-emergent Adverse Event (TEAE), Serious Adverse Event (SAE) and Treatment Discontinuation

    An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product, regardless of the relationship to the investigational medicinal product (IMP). SAE was any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose resulted in death or was life-threatening or required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization or resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity or was a congenital anomaly/birth defect or was a medically important event. TEAEs were AEs that developed or worsened or became serious during the TEAE period (time from first dose of IMP up to the end of follow-up period).

    Measured: Baseline up to the end of study (66 weeks)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Percentage of Participants Who Achieved 20% Response in Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS) Working Group Criteria for Response (ASAS20)

    Treatment response for ASAS20 was defined as: Improvement of ≥ 20% and ≥ 1 unit on a 0 (least) to 10 (worst) numerical rating score (NRS) in at least 3 of the 4 ASAS improvement criteria (ASASIC) domains, and no worsening of ≥ 20% and ≥ 1 unit on 0-10 NRS in the remaining domain. The 4 domains included were participant's global disease activity assessment, total back pain, physical function (Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index), and Inflammation (mean of last 2 Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index questions on morning stiffness).

    Measured: Baseline up to the end of treatment (60 weeks)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Sarilumab in people with Ankylosing Spondylitis, run by Sanofi at 12 sites in 12 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Jun 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites in United States, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada and 7 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 21 Jun 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of Participants Experiencing Any Treatment-emergent Adverse Event (TEAE), Serious Adverse Event (SAE) and Treatment Discontinuation (time frame: Baseline up to the end of study (66 weeks)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Jun 2017.
