A Trial Evaluating Efficacy of AGA2118 in PostMenopausal Women wIth Low Bone MasS (ARTEMIS)

The primary objective of this study is to determine the effect of treatment with AGA2118 versus placebo at Month 12 on lumbar spine bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal women with low bone mass.

About this study

This Phase 2 dose-finding study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of AGA2118 at a range of dosing regimens in postmenopausal women with low BMD at the lumbar spine, total hip, or femoral neck and no prior history of fragility fractures.

This study includes a 12 month blinded treatment phase where participants will be randomized 1:1:1:1:1:1:1 to receive double-blind dosing regimens of AGA2118 or placebo. At Month 12, participants who have completed the double-blind portion of the study will continue on to a 12 month open-label period where they will be re-randomized based on their prior dosing regimen to either continue their current dosing regimen, receive a new dosing regimen, or discontinue treatment and be actively surveilled throughout Months 12 to 24.

Primary outcomes

  1. Percent change from Baseline to Month 12 in lumbar spine bone mineral density

    Time frame: 12 months

    To determine the effect of treatment with AGA2118 versus placebo at Month 12 on the percent change from Baseline in bone mineral density at the lumbar spine in postmenopausal women with low bone mineral density

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percent change from Baseline to Months 3 and 6 in lumbar spine, total hip, femoral neck, and one-third distal radius bone mineral density

    Time frame: 3 and 6 months

    To evaluate the effect of treatment with AGA2118 versus placebo at different timepoints on percent change from Baseline in bone mineral density at the lumbar spine, total hip, femoral neck, and one-third distal radius

  2. Percent change from Baseline to Month 12 in total hip, femoral neck, and one-third distal radius bone mineral density

    Time frame: 12 months

    To evaluate the effect of treatment with AGA2118 versus placebo at different timepoints on percent change from Baseline in bone mineral density at the lumbar spine, total hip, femoral neck, and one-third distal radius

  3. Percent change from Baseline to Months 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 in P1NP and CTX-1

    Time frame: 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months

    To evaluate the effect of treatment with AGA2118 versus placebo at different time points on percent change from Baseline in P1NP and CTX-1

  4. Incidence of new clinical fractures (vertebral and nonvertebral) between Baseline and Month 12

    Time frame: 12 months

    To evaluate the incidence of new clinical fractures (vertebral and nonvertebral) from Baseline to Month 12

Other outcomes

  1. Assessment of TEAEs (collection and documentation of all adverse events occurring during the study)

    Time frame: Baseline to 24 months

  2. Number of participants who develop anti-AGA2118 antibodies

    Time frame: Baseline to 24 months

    To assess the formation of anti-AGA2118 antibodies

  3. Evaluation of AGA2118 observed serum concentration levels for the AGA2118 treatment groups at Week 1 post-treatment and trough levels prior to dosing

    Time frame: Baseline to 24 months

    To characterize the pharmacokinetic parameters of the different AGA2118 doses
