Abdominal Pain Upper
Conditions
Brief summary
Primary objective was to demonstrate the activity of REGN475/SAR164877 in reducing the pain associated with chronic pancreatitis. Secondary objectives were: * to assess the safety and tolerability of REGN475/SAR164877 in patients with chronic pancreatitis pain; * to characterize the pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic, and immunogenicity profiles of REGN475/SAR164877 in this population; * to measure the change in the total daily dose of rescue medications required.
Detailed description
The duration of the study period for each participant was up to 14 weeks, including a screening period up to 2 weeks, and 12-week follow-up after the injection.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Mean change from baseline in pain intensity as assessed by Pain Intensity Numeric Rating Scale (PI-NRS) | baseline and 4 weeks after injection | The baseline value was defined as the average of PI-NRS values obtained at screening and at randomization visit. The Week 4 value was defined as the average of PI-NRS values obtained daily through e-Diary assessments during Week 4. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Pharmacokinetic: REGN475/SAR164877 serum concentration | 12 weeks |
| Patient Global Impression of Change [PGIC] score | 4, 8 and 12 weeks |
| Mean change from baseline in pain intensity as assessed by PI-NRS | baseline and every other weeks up to 12 weeks after injection |
| Percentage of participants with at least 30% and 50% reduction from baseline in pain intensity | up to 12 weeks after injection |
| Percentage of days with rescue analgesia use | 12 weeks |
| Change from baseline in Short Form-12 Item Quality of Life Questionnaire [SF-12] score | baseline and 4, 8, 12 weeks |
| Percentage of pain-free days (score 0 pain on PI-NRS) | 12 weeks |
