About this study

Official title: A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Parallel-group Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Tolebrutinib (SAR442168) in Adults With Generalized Myasthenia Gravis (MG)

This was a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase 3 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tolebrutinib compared with placebo in adult participants aged 18 to 85 years old with moderate-to-severe generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG), who received Standard of Care (SoC). The double-blind (DB) treatment period of 26 weeks comprised of 7 site visits followed by a 2-year open label extension (OLE) period with quarterly visits. The efficacy of tolebrutinib versus placebo during the DB period was assessed by clinical evaluations, including scales based on physician examination or direct participant feedback i.e., patient reported outcomes (PROs). These evaluations continued during the OLE to measure long term efficacy and safety.

Read the detailed description

The duration of the DB period was 26 weeks. The OLE was planned up to 104 weeks. The duration of the whole study DB+OLE was planned up to130 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. DB Period: Change From Baseline in Myasthenia Gravis-activities of Daily Living (MG-ADL) Total Score at Week 26

    The MG-ADL is an 8-item patient-reported categorical scale that assesses MG symptoms and their effects on daily activities. The MG-ADL targeted symptoms and disability across ocular (2 items), bulbar (3 items), respiratory (1 items), and gross motor or limb impairment (2 items) symptoms. It evaluates a participant's capacity to perform different activities in their daily life. Each item is scored on a 4-point scale ranged from 0 (normal) to 3 (severe), where higher score represents the more severe symptoms or impaired performance. MG-ADL total score is the sum of each item score which ranged from 0 (normal) to 24 (severe). Higher score represents severe disability due to MG. DB period Baseline value was defined as last available value prior to the first dose of the study medication in the DB period.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1), Week 26

  2. OLE Period: Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), Adverse Events Leading to Permanent Study Intervention Discontinuation and Adverse Events of Special Interests (AESIs)

    An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug and did not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with the treatment. A SAE was any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: resulted in death, was life-threatening, required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, was a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or was a medically important event. An AESI was defined as one of scientific \& medical concern specific to the Sponsor's product or program, for which ongoing monitoring and immediate notification by the Investigator to the Sponsor was considered appropriate. Relatedness to study vaccine was based on Investigator's discretion.

    Measured: From Week 27 up to an additional 35 weeks in the OLE period until the study termination (i.e., up to Week 61)

  3. OLE Period: Number of Participants With Hematological Abnormalities

    Hematological parameters assessed were: platelet count, red blood cell count, hemoglobin, hematocrit, white blood cell, neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, and basophils. Only those categories in which at least 1 participant had data were reported.

    Measured: From Week 27 up to an additional 35 weeks in the OLE period until the study termination (i.e., up to Week 61)

  4. OLE Period: Number of Participants With Clinical Chemistry Parameter Abnormalities

    Clinical chemistry parameters assessed were blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, glucose, total and direct bilirubin, potassium, sodium, chloride, bicarbonate, calcium, albumin, creatine phosphokinase, alkaline phosphatase, aspartate aminotransferase/serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase, alanine aminotransferase/serum glutamic-pyruvic transaminase, lipase, and total protein. Only the category (Alkaline phosphatase) in which at least 1 participant had data were reported.

    Measured: From Week 27 up to an additional 35 weeks in the OLE period until the study termination (i.e., up to Week 61)

  5. OLE Period: Number of Participants With Electrocardiogram (ECG) Abnormalities

    ECG parameters assessed were heart rate, pulse rate, QRS interval, QT interval and QT interval corrected using Fridericia's formula [QTcF]).

    Measured: From Week 27 up to an additional 35 weeks in the OLE period until the study termination (i.e., up to Week 61)

  6. OLE Period: Number of Participants With Vital Signs Abnormalities

    Vital signs assessed were heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, weight and temperature. Only those category (Weight >=5% decrease from Baseline) in which at least 1 participant had data were reported.

    Measured: From Week 27 up to an additional 35 weeks in the OLE period until the study termination (i.e., up to Week 61)

Secondary outcomes (18)
  1. DB Period: Change From Baseline in Quantitative Myasthenia Gravis (QMG) Total Score at Week 26

    The QMG is a clinician-reported outcome to assess muscle weakness in participants with MG. The QMG test consists of 13 items: ocular (2 items), facial (1 item), bulbar (2 items), gross motor (6 items), axial (1 item), and respiratory (1 item). Each item is scored on 3-point scale ranged from 0 (none) to 3 (severe), where higher score represents most severe muscle weakness. The QMG total score is the sum of each individual item score which ranged from 0 (normal) to 39 (severe). Higher score represents greater disease activity. DB period Baseline value was defined as last available value prior to the first dose of the study medication in the DB period.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1), Week 26

  2. DB Period: Change From Baseline in Quantitative Myasthenia Gravis (QMG) Total Score at Week 12

    The QMG is a clinician-reported outcome to assess muscle weakness in participants with MG.

Each item is scored on 3-point scale ranged from 0 (none) to 3 (severe), where higher score represents most severe muscle weakness. The QMG total score is the sum of each individual item score which ranged from 0 (normal) to 39 (severe). Higher score represents greater disease activity.

MGII can be divided into 2 sub-scale-scores: ocular (8 items) \& generalized (20 items) impairments. Ocular sub-score: calculated by summing 1 to 6 items from patient questionnaire and items 1 \& 2 of clinician-assessment. Generalized score: calculated by adding items 7 to 22 from patient questionnaire \& items 3 to 6 from the clinician-assessment. Each item is scored on 4-point scale: from 0 (none) to 3 (severe), where higher score=more disease severity. MGII total score: sum of each item of patient questionnaire (total score:0 [normal] to 23 [severe]) \& clinician assessment items (total score:0 [normal] to 61 [severe]); ranged from 0 (normal) to 84 (severe). Higher scores=greater disease severity. DB period Baseline: defined as last available value prior to 1st dose of study medication in the DB period.

The instrument is developed and validated to evaluate general QoL of participants with MG by a clinician in the practice setting. The domains covered by the questionnaire are mobility (9 items), symptoms (3 items), general contentment (1 item) and emotional well-being (2 items). Each item is scored on a scale of 0 (not at all) to 4 (very much), where higher score indicates severe QoL impairment. The MG-QOL15 total score is the sum of each individual item score and ranged from 0 (none) to 60 (severe). Higher scores indicates greater extent and dissatisfaction with MG-related dysfunction.

It evaluates a participant's capacity to perform different activities in their daily life. Each item is scored on a 4-point scale ranged from 0 (normal) to 3 (severe), where higher score represents the more severe symptoms or impaired performance.

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.

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 8 Apr 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
