Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: Primary objective: To assess the safety (esp. with respect to autoimmunity) of different doses of low-dose s.c. Aldesleukin treatment in CVID patients with AIE ;Secondary Objective: Secondary objectives: To assess the optimal dose for expansion of Treg cells in CVID patients. To assess the impact of low-dose Aldesleukin on chronic diarrhoea in patients with AIE and CVID.;Primary end point(s): Primary safety endpoint: Adverse events will be recorded according to GCP guidelines during the treatment and follow-up phase at every site visit (every two weeks). Patients will be clinically monitored for signs of autoimmunity at every site visit. Autoantibodies will be measured before start of the therapy and after completion of the follow-up period. Differential blood count (eosinophil counts), lymphocyte subsets as well as liver enzymes and creatinine will be measured every two weeks. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Data from at least 33 treatment cycles (n=3 patients fulifilling the whole treatment period) will be analysed. Regression models will be used to describe the relation of the different outcomes to dose. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): Key secondary endpoint(s): % of Tregs will be measured before each cycle and on day 4 of every cycle and on day 6 of the induction cycle(s). Disease activity will be assessed with a self-administered questionnaire (IBDQ) and a stool diary filled in by patients.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Data from at least 33 treatment cycles (n=3 patients fulifilling the whole treatment period) will be analysed. Regression models will be used to describe the relation of the different outcomes to dose. | — |
