A Safety and Tolerability Study of BIVV020 in Adults With Cold Agglutinin Disease

Primary Objective:

To assess the safety and tolerability in participants with cold agglutinin disease (CAD), after a single dose of intravenous (IV) BIVV020

Secondary Objectives:

To assess, in participants with cold agglutinin disease, after a single dose of intravenous (IV) BIVV020:

* The effect of BIVV020 on complement mediated hemolysis * The pharmacodynamics (PD) of BIVV020 relating to complement inhibition * The pharmacokinetics (PK) of BIVV020 * The immunogenicity of BIVV020

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Male and/or female patients, ≥ 18 years of age with cold agglutinin disease as defined by:
  • Chronic hemolysis per Investigator's judgement,
  • Polyspecific direct antiglobulin test (DAT) positive,
  • Monospecific DAT strongly positive for C3d,
  • Cold agglutinin (CAg) titer ≥ 64 at 4 C; and,
  • IgG DAT ≤1+.
  • A hemoglobin level ≤11 mg/dL.
  • A total bilirubin level above the normal reference range that is thought to be due to hemolysis.
  • Documented vaccinations against encapsulated bacterial pathogens (Neisseria meningitidis, including serogroup B meningococcus and Streptococcus pneumoniae) within five years of screening or willing to complete protocol specified vaccinations.
  • Having given written informed consent prior to undertaking any study-related procedure.

Exclusion criteria

  • Cold agglutinin syndrome secondary to infection, rheumatologic disease, or known high grade hematologic malignancy, or known solid organ tumor.
  • Clinically relevant infection of any kind within one month preceding screening.
  • Treatment with anti-CD20 monotherapy within three months or anti CD20 combination therapies within six months prior to screening.
  • Concurrent treatment with systemic immunosuppressive agents targeting B- or T-cell function and/or cytotoxic agents within 3 months prior to screening. Concurrent treatment with other systemic immunosuppressants within 5.5 half-lives of the drug prior to screening.
  • Any specific complement system inhibitor within three months prior to screening.
  • Concurrent treatment with systemic corticosteroids other than a stable daily dose equivalent to ≤10 mg/day prednisone within three months prior to screening.
  • If female, pregnant or lactating.

The above information is not intended to contain all considerations relevant to a patient's potential participation in a clinical trial.

Treatment and study plan

BIVV020

Drug

Pharmaceutical form:solution for injection Route of administration: intravenous

Primary outcomes

  1. Assessment of adverse events (AEs)

    Time frame: Screening to Day 106

    Number of participants with adverse events (AEs)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Mean change from baseline in bilirubin over time

    Time frame: Day 1 to Day 106

    Assessment of total bilirubin

  2. Mean change from baseline in hemoglobin over time

    Time frame: Day 1 to Day 106

    Assessment of hemoglobin

  3. Complement System Classical Pathway Levels as Measured by WIESLAB Assay

    Time frame: Day 1 to Day 106

    Inhibition by BIVV020 of the complement system classical pathway measured by the WIESLAB assay

  4. Complement System Alternative Pathway Levels as Measured by WIESLAB Assay

    Time frame: Day 1 to Day 106

    Effect of BIVV0020 on the complement system alternative pathway measured by the WIESLAB assay

  5. Total Complement (CH50) Levels

    Time frame: Day 1 to Day 106

    Complement CH50 is a blood test that helps us determine whether protein abnormalities and deficiencies in the complement system are responsible for any increase in autoimmune activity. It will be assessed using complement assays.

  6. Total Complement Factor C4 Levels

    Time frame: Day 1 to Day 106

    Total C4 Levels will be assessed in plasma using complement assays

  7. PK parameter: Cmax

    Time frame: Day 1 to Day 106

    Observed maximum plasma concentration

  8. PK parameter: tmax

    Time frame: Day 1 to Day 106

    Observed first time to reach Cmax

  9. PK parameter: AUClast

    Time frame: Day 1 to Day 106

    Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve calculated using the trapezoidal method from time zero to the real time tlast

  10. PK parameter: AUC0-∞

    Time frame: Day 1 to Day 106

    Calculated area under the plasma concentration versus time curve extrapolated to infinity

  11. Number of participants with anti-BIVV antibodies

    Time frame: Day 1 to Day 106

    Observed number of participants with BIVV020 antibodies
