Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: PartA/B: To compare the effect of benralizumab with placebo on histologic signs and gastrointestinal symptoms in patients with eosinophilic gastritis and/or gastroenteritis;Secondary Objective: -Part A/B: To compare the effect of benralizumab with placebo on clinical features of eosinophilic gastritis/ gastroenteritis and disease activity. -Part A/B: To compare the effect of benralizumab with placebo on rescue corticosteroid use. -Part A/B: To compare the effect of benralizumab with placebo on health-related quality of life in patients with EG/EGE. -To assess the pharmacokinetics and immunogenicity of benralizumab in patients with EG/EGE. -To assess the safety of benralizumab in patients with eosinophilic gastritis and/or gastroenteritis.;Primary end point(s): Dual primary endpoints 1). Proportion of patients achieving a histological response in the stomach and/or in the duodenum Histologic Endpoint:defined as =6 eosinophils/high power field (hpf) in the stomach and/or, =15 eosinophils/hpf in the duodenum at Week 24 2). Absolute change in symptoms of EG/EGE;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Both at Week 24 | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): Tissue eosinophilis -Percentage change from baseline in tissue eosinophils (stomach and/or duodenum if applicable) at Week 24 Treatment response -Proportion of patients who achieve treatment response: tissue remission (= 6 eosinophils/hpf in the stomach and = 15 eosinophils/hpf in the duodenum, if applicable) and an improvement in symptoms at Week 24 Diarrhea-free days - Change from baseline in proportion of diarrhea-free days, and change from baseline in frequency of diarrhea episodes at Week 24 Vomiting-free days - Change from baseline in proportion of vomiting-free days, and change from baseline in frequency of vomiting episodes at Week 24 To compare the effect of benralizumab with placebo on rescue use - Proportion of patients with no rescue corticosteroid use up to Week 24 To evaluate the effect of benralizumab on patient reported QOL measures at Week 24 Safety and tolerability - Safety and tolerability will be evaluated in terms of adverse events, vital signs, physical exam, and clinical laboratory parameters at Week 52;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Depending on the endpoints/objective | — |
