Brief summary

This was a multi-center, single treatment-group, open-label study to provide sutimlimab to the adult participants with cold agglutinin disease (CAD) who had completed the CARDINAL (NCT number: NCT03347396) or CADENZA (NCT number: NCT03347422) studies and benefitted from sutimlimab treatment in Japan. • Study and treatment duration: the period between the participant's completion of the CARDINAL and CADENZA studies and sutimlimab or other appropriate CAD therapy becoming commercially available to participants in Japan.

Detailed description

The period between screening/baseline visit (upon the participant's completion\* of the CARDINAL and CADENZA studies) and end of treatment with sutimlimab in this study was determined by sutimlimab or other appropriate CAD therapy becoming commercially available to participants in Japan.

Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Treatment-emergent Serious Adverse Events (TESAEs)From first dose of study intervention up to 9 weeks after the last dose of study intervention (maximum duration: 49 weeks)An Adverse Event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study intervention and did not necessarily had to have a causal relationship with the treatment. Serious adverse events (SAEs) were defined as any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: resulted in death, was life-threatening, required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/ incapacity, was a congenital anomaly/birth defect, suspected transmission of any infectious agent via an authorized medicinal product, was a medically important event. TEAEs were defined as AEs that developed, worsened or became serious during the treatment-emergent period (from first dose of study intervention up to 9 weeks after the last dose of study intervention in the current study).
Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESI)From first dose of study intervention up to 9 weeks after the last dose of study intervention (maximum duration: 49 weeks)An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study intervention and did not necessarily had to have a causal relationship with the treatment. AESIs were AE (serious or non-serious) of scientific and medical concern specific to the Sponsor's product or program, for which ongoing monitoring and immediate notification by the investigator to the Sponsor was required.

Recruitment details

The study was conducted at 5 active sites in Japan. A total of 7 participants were enrolled from 11 November 2021 to 07 December 2021. Participants with cold agglutinin disease (CAD) and who had completed Part B of CARDINAL (NCT03347396) or CADENZA (NCT03347422) study and benefitted from sutimlimab treatment were enrolled in the current study.

Pre-assignment details

Per protocol, enrolled participants were planned to receive sutimlimab based on their baseline body weight as: 6.5 grams for baseline body weight of greater than or equal to (\>=) 39 kilograms (kg) to less than (\<) 75 kg or 7.5 grams for baseline body weight of \>= 75 kg. As no participant had a Baseline body weight \>= 75 kg, per the study protocol, 7.5 grams dose was not administered.

Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESI)

An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study intervention and did not necessarily had to have a causal relationship with the treatment. AESIs were AE (serious or non-serious) of scientific and medical concern specific to the Sponsor's product or program, for which ongoing monitoring and immediate notification by the investigator to the Sponsor was required.

Time frame: From first dose of study intervention up to 9 weeks after the last dose of study intervention (maximum duration: 49 weeks)

Population: Analysis was performed on safety population.
