Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: Explore the safety of IFX-1 for the treatment of subjects with pyoderma gangrenosum;Secondary Objective: Explore the efficacy of IFX-1 for the treatment of pyoderma gangrenosum Explore additional clinical outcome parameters in subjects with pyoderma gangrenosum under the treatment with IFX-1;Primary end point(s): Occurrence, nature and intensity of treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs), related TEAEs, serious TEAEs, and adverse events of special interest;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Adverse Events are assessed at every visit; interim analysis and End of Trial

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Responder rate defined as Physician’s Global Assessment =3 of target ulcer at Visits V4, V6, V10, and V16 (End of Treatment [EOT]) Time to complete closure of pyoderma gangrenosum target ulcer (investigator assessment) Percentage change in wound area and wound volume (wound healing) of target ulcer between Visits V1-V4, V1-V6, V6-V10; V10-V16, and V1-V16 (photographic assessment) Rate of change per day in area of target ulcer (photographic assessment) Number of subjects with a decrease in area of target ulcer of 50% or more at Visit V16 (EOT) compared to baseline (photographic assessment) Number of subjects with a decrease in area of target ulcer of 100% at Visit V16 (EOT) compared to baseline (remission) (photographic assessment) Degree of erythema and border elevation of the target ulcer compared to baseline at Visits V4, V6, V10, and V16 (EOT) (investigator assessment) Mean change from baseline in pain assessed by Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) at Visits V4, V6, V10, and V16 (EOT) Mean change from baseline in Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) at Visits V4, V6, V10, and V16 (EOT);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Interim analysis and End of trial
