Brief summary
The investigational drug, VRDN-001, is a monoclonal antibody that inhibits the activity of a cell surface receptor called insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R). Inhibition of IGF-1R may help to reduce the inflammation and associated tissue swelling that occurs in participants with thyroid eye disease (TED). The primary objectives of this clinical trial are to provide open-label access to VRDN-001 for participants who were previously non-responders at 3 weeks post the fifth IV infusion (i.e., 15 weeks) in the VRDN-001-101 (THRIVE) and VRDN-001-301 (THRIVE-2) pivotal studies and assess the safety and efficacy of VRDN-001 in participants who were previously treated with VRDN-001 or placebo.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Proptosis Responder Rate (PRR) in the Most Proptotic Eye as Measured by Exophthalmometer | Baseline to Week 15 | Proptosis response in the most proptotic eye was defined as a reduction of proptosis of ≥2 millimeters (mm) from baseline in the most proptotic eye (without a corresponding increase of ≥2 mm in the other eye) as measured by exophthalmometer. Missing data were not imputed. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Diplopia Responder Rate | Week 15 | A diplopia responder was defined as having a decrease of ≥1 from baseline for participants with a baseline Gorman subjective diplopia score \>0. Gorman subjective diplopia score (range, 0 to 3) includes 4 categories: no diplopia (absent, scored as 0), diplopia in the primary position of gaze when the participant is tired or awakening (intermittent, scored as 1), diplopia at extremes of gaze (inconstant, scored as 2), and continuous diplopia in the primary or reading position (constant, scored as 3). Missing data were not imputed. |
| Diplopia Resolution Rate | Week 15 | Diplopia resolution was defined as reduction in Gorman subjective diplopia score to 0 from baseline for participants with baseline Gorman subjective diplopia score \>0. Gorman subjective diplopia score (range, 0 to 3) includes 4 categories: no diplopia (absent, scored as 0), diplopia in the primary position of gaze when the participant is tired or awakening (intermittent, scored as 1), diplopia at extremes of gaze (inconstant, scored as 2), and continuous diplopia in the primary or reading position (constant, scored as 3). Missing data were not imputed. |
| Change From Baseline in Proptosis in the Most Proptotic Eye as Measured by Exophthalmometer | Baseline, Week 15 | Proptosis was defined as distance between the lateral orbital rim and the most anterior position of the cornea in mm, measured using an exophthalmometer. Missing data were not imputed. |
| PRR in the Most Proptotic Eye as Measured by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)/Computed Tomography (CT) | Baseline to Week 15 | Proptosis responder in the most proptotic eye by MRI/CT was defined as a reduction of proptosis of ≥2 mm from baseline in the most proptotic eye by MRI/CT (without a corresponding increase of ≥2 mm in the other eye) as measured by MRI/CT. Missing data were not imputed. |
| Change From Baseline in Proptosis in the Most Proptotic Eye as Measured by MRI/CT | Baseline, Week 15 | Measurement of proptosis was conducted by the central imaging reading center using MRI/CT of the orbits acquired without contrast. Measurements were conducted by 2 independent readers with adjudication if the difference between the 2 primary readers in proptosis measurement exceeded 5% (calculated as the difference divided by the larger measurement). The average of 2 (or 3 if adjudicated) measurements were used for analyses. Missing data were not imputed. |
| ORR Comprising PRR and Clinical Activity Responder Rate in the Most Proptotic Eye as Measured by Exophthalmometer | Baseline to Week 15 | ORR was comprised of PRR in the most proptotic eye (reduction of proptosis of ≥2 mm from baseline in the most proptotic eye \[without a corresponding increase of ≥2 mm in the other eye\]) as measured by exophthalmometer at Week 15 and clinical activity responder rate in the most proptotic eye (no worsening in CAS from baseline in the most proptotic eye without a corresponding increase of ≥2 points in the other eye) as measured by exophthalmometer at Week 15. Missing data were not imputed. |
| Clinical Activity Responder Rate in the Most Proptotic Eye as Measured by Exophthalmometer | Week 15 | Clinical activity responder in the most proptotic eye was defined as no worsening in clinical activity score (CAS) from baseline in the most proptotic eye without a corresponding increase of ≥2 points in the other eye. Missing data were not imputed. |

Participant flow
Recruitment details
As prespecified, data were collected and reported for the participants. Therefore, the 'Ns' reported below = number of participants analyzed regardless of which eye was evaluated. The primary and secondary efficacy analyses and safety analysis were measured in the pre-specified study eye per individual participant.
Pre-assignment details
Ocular assessments were performed in both eyes at baseline. The study eye for the purpose of determining eligibility remained the same as that identified at baseline (last assessment performed prior to the Day 1 IV infusion) in the THRIVE (NCT05176639) or THRIVE-2 (NCT06021054) study.
