About this study

Official title: BEL114333, a Multicenter, Continuation Study of Belimumab in Subjects With Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) Who Completed the Phase III Study BEL113750 in Northeast Asia or Completed the Open-label Extension of HGS1006-C1115 in Japan

This study provides subjects who complete the BEL113750 study and subjects who complete the open-label extension of HGS1006-C1115 (referred to as C1115) Study in Japan the option of continuing treatment with belimumab (10 mg/kg intravenously every 4 weeks) for those randomized to belimumab, or the option to begin treatment with belimumab for those randomized to placebo, as an add-on to their standard of care SLE therapy.

Read the detailed description

This is a multicentre, continuation study of belimumab plus standard of care (SOC) in SLE subjects who completed the Phase III BEL113750 protocol in Northeast Asia or who completed the open-label extension of the HGS1006-C1115 protocol in Japan. This study provides subjects who complete the BEL113750 study the option of continuing treatment with belimumab (10 mg/kg intravenously every 4 weeks) for those randomized to belimumab, or the option to begin treatment with belimumab for those randomized to placebo, as an add-on to their SOC SLE therapy. Subjects participating in this continuation protocol will continue to be monitored for safety and efficacy, as measured by the SLE responder index. Subjects who complete 48 weeks of treatment on the BEL113750 study and who meet inclusion/exclusion criteria, and provide informed consent, will be given the option to enter the continuation study. All subjects will receive belimumab 10 mg/kg IV infused over 1 hour every 4 weeks. Subjects recruited into this study will continue to receive treatment with belimumab until such time as belimumab becomes commercially available in a subject's country of participation, or the subject elects to participate in another belimumab continuation study for SLE, or until either the subject's physician withdraws the subject from the study, or upon the decision by the sponsor to discontinue further development of belimumab for SLE.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious AEs (SAEs)

    Any untoward medical occurrence in participant, temporally associated with use of medicinal product, whether or not considered related to medicinal product. Any untoward event resulting in death,life threatening,requires hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization,results in disability/incapacity,congenital anomaly/birth defect,medically important were categorized as SAE. Number of participants who had any AE(includes those having non-serious and/or serious AEs) or any SAE are presented.Treatment-emergent AEs are defined as AEs that started on or after first dose of belimumab treatment and for those participants who were randomized to placebo in parent study,ongoing AEs that started before first open-label belimumab dose(in either C1115 open-label extension or BEL114333),worsened (severity,seriousness,relatedness) at any point during the open-label treatment.Timeframe includes exposure in parent study/upto16 weeks post infusion in current study(114333).

    Measured: Up to 6 calendar years and 9 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Percentage of SLE Responder Index (SRI) Responders by Study Visit

    SRI response is composite index, defined as percent of participants with>=4 point reduction from Baseline in safety of estrogen in lupus national assessment systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity index (SELENA-SLEDAI) score and no worsening (increase of <0.30 points from Baseline) in physicians global assessment(PGA) \&no new British isles lupus assessment group (BILAG) A organ domain score or 2 new BILAG B organ domain scores compared with Baseline at the time of assessment. A SELENA SLEDAI score of 0 would suggest no lupus activity; while a score of 105 is the maximum calculable if all items were scored as being present from active lupus. PGA ranges from 0(no activity) to 3(severe activity). BILAG has no range. Baseline is last available value prior to first belimumab exposure. Year 8 Week 24 visit is the Exit Visit obtained by slotting the Exit Visit to Week 24. Timeframe includes exposure in parent study/upto 4 weeks post infusion (Exit visit) in current study (114333).

    Measured: Study Years 1 to 7: At Week 24 and 48 Visits, Year 8: only Week 24 Visit

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Belimumab in people with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 27 sites in 2 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 2 inclusion and 2 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Mar 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 27 sites in Japan, South Korea. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 9 Jan 2020). 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?

Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious AEs (SAEs) (time frame: Up to 6 calendar years and 9 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01597622, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 27 Mar 2020.
