A Multicentre Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of ENIA11 in Patients With Ankylosing Spondylitis

NCT02685904 | Terminated Phase 3

• 1 other identifier: TSHEN1502
• Study Type: interventional
• Target: 10
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 6

Brief Summary

This is a multi-center, double-blind, randomized, parallel-group, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ENIA11 in patients with ankylosing spondylitis. The study period for each patient will be 27 weeks, during which the patient will undergo screening for up to 21 days, and followed by treatment of 24 weeks and follow up period of 2 weeks. Each patient will be required to make a total of 9 visits. After re-confirming the eligibility of patients at Visit 2, eligible patients will be randomly assigned to either treatment group or control group in a 2:1 ratio. In addition, patients in the treatment group will receive ENIA11 25 mg twice weekly by subcutaneous injection while patients in the control group will receive placebo solution twice weekly by subcutaneous injection from Day 0 to week 12 and then switch to active drug from week 12 to week 24 and follow up period of 2 weeks. The efficacy analysis, including ASAS response measures, ASAS5/6, ASDAS, BASDAS, BASFI, BASMI and individual measures of disease activity, such as numbers of swollen and tender joints, ESR and CRP, will be evaluated at each visit from Visit 2 (baseline) to Visit 9. Safety will be evaluated according to the frequency of adverse events, vital signs, physical examination, laboratory abnormalities, and ENIA11 antibody formation.

• Patient may be receiving stable dose of permitted DMARDs (methotrexate at max of 25 mg/week, sulfasalazine at max of 3 g/day) since at least 2 weeks prior screening visit.
• Patient may be receiving stable dose of corticosteroids (eg. Prednisolone ≦10mg/day) since at least 2 weeks prior screening visit.
• No evidence of active pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) as defined by the following:
• A Chest X-ray taken at screening (unless it has been previously taken and documented within 3 months) was not active TB infection.
• QuantiFERON-TB Gold Test negative
• QuantiFERON-TB Gold Test for the Positive or indeterminate 2 times, patient need to perform more than four weeks before INH treatment enrolled to the trial and received an adequate course of therapy (eg, 9 months of INH treatment).
• Patient has previously received an adequate course of therapy (eg, 9 months of INH treatment) for either latent or active TB infection.

You may not qualify if:

• Known hypersensitivity to etanercept or ENIA11 or any of its components
• Previous unsuccessful treatment with etanercept, anti-TNF monoclonal antibodies or a soluble TNF receptor (e.g., infliximab)
• Suspected or diagnosed active pulmonary tuberculosis, or other chronic or current infectious disease at discretion of investigator
• Patients who have a history or evidence of a medical condition that would expose them to an undue risk of a significant adverse event during the course of the trial, including but not limited to hepatic, renal, respiratory, cardiovascular, endocrine, immune, neurological, hematological, gastrointestinal or psychiatric disease as determined by the clinical judgment of the investigator
• Patients with any of the following laboratory abnormalities: ALT/AST \> 3 times ULN, creatinine \> 2 mg/dl, WBC \< 3,000/mm3, Hemoglobin \< 8.5 g/dL, platelet count \< 100,000/mm3 (6) Patients have received live attenuated vaccination program within 3 months or BCG vaccine within 12 months prior enrollment
• Female patient of childbearing potential who:
• is lactating; or
• has positive urine pregnancy test at Visit 1; or
• refuse to adopt reliable method of contraception during the study;
• Suspected or diagnosed active for human immunodeficiency, hepatitis B or hepatitis C virus (HCV Ab+ and HCV RNA+)
• Patient has received any investigational agent within 28 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, prior to the first dose of investigational product
• Patient who receiving any prohibited concomitant medications as following,
• Other DMARDs (Hydroxychloroquine, azathioprine, cyclosporine, D-penicillamine, cyclosprin, Gold) from 4 weeks prior first dose of the study drug.
• Leflunomide from 8 weeks prior first dose of the study drug.
• Other biologicals indicated for AS from 4 weeks prior first dose of the study drug.
