Brief summary
A Phase 3 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of birtamimab plus standard of care compared to placebo plus standard of care in Mayo Stage IV patients with AL amyloidosis.
Detailed description
This is a Phase 3 multicenter, global, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of birtamimab in Mayo Stage IV patients with AL amyloidosis (i.e., Double-blind Phase), followed by a long-term, open-label extension (i.e., Open-label Extension \[OLE\] Phase). The primary objective of the Double-blind Phase is to evaluate the efficacy of birtamimab by assessing time to all-cause mortality. All patients will receive bortezomib-containing chemotherapy regimen as standard of care. For the Double-blind Phase of the study, approximately 220 newly diagnosed Mayo Stage IV patients with AL amyloidosis will be enrolled and randomized in a 2:1 ratio to birtamimab or placebo. Subjects will remain on study until study completion, when the pre-defined number of events (all-cause mortality) have been reached. After completion of the Double-blind Phase, eligible subjects may enter the optional OLE Phase, in which all subjects will receive open-label birtamimab treatment, regardless of Double-blind Phase randomized treatment assignment. Treatment in the OLE Phase will continue for an additional 24 months or until birtamimab is commercially available in a subject's country of residence, whichever occurs first (in accordance with country-specific regulations). The primary objective of the OLE Phase is to evaluate the long-term safety of birtamimab plus standard of care in Mayo Stage IV subjects with AL amyloidosis.
Interventions
Intravenous administration of 24 mg/kg birtamimab every 28 days
Intravenous 0.9% Saline administration as a placebo every 28 days
Bortezomib-containing chemotherapy regimen (e.g. cyclophosphamide, bortezomib, and dexamethasone (CyBorD)) according to the institutional standard of care

SF-36 v2 is a 36-item self-administered quality-of-life questionnaire that measures health on functional status, well-being, and overall evaluation of health. The Physical Component Summary score ranges from 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating higher health-related quality of life. The Physical Component Summary is derived primarily from questions regarding physical functioning, physical problems, bodily pain, and general health questions. |
