Proof of Concept Study of Rilzabrutinib in Adult Participants With Moderate-to-severe Asthma
A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Parallel-group, 12 Week Proof-of-Concept (PoC) Study to Assess the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of Rilzabrutinib in Participants With Moderate-to-severe Asthma Who Are Not Well Controlled on Inhaled Corticosteroid (ICS) Plus Long-acting β2 Adrenergic Agonist (LABA) Therapy
This is a parallel, treatment, Phase 2, double-blind, 2 arm, 12-week Proof of Concept (PoC) study with 2 staggered cohorts (2 arms in each cohort) that is designed to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of rilzabrutinib in adult participants (aged 18-70 years) with moderate-to-severe asthma who are not well controlled on ICS/LABA therapy. Study treatment includes investigational medicinal product (IMP) (rilzabrutinib or placebo) added-on to a background therapy of ICS/LABA (fluticasone/salmeterol [non-investigational medicinal product], standardized at screening). Background therapy of ICS/LABA will be withdrawn during the 12week randomized treatment period and resumed at the end of the IMP treatment period, as outlined below:
- Screening period (4 weeks)
Randomized IMP treatment period (12 weeks ± 3 days)
- Background therapy stabilization phase (4 weeks)
- Background therapy withdrawal phase (4-5 weeks)
- No background therapy phase (3-4 weeks)
- Post IMP treatment safety follow-up period (4 weeks ± 3 days)

|
From baseline until Week 12
|
|
Change from baseline in peak expiratory flow [PEF] and forced expiratory flow [FEF] 25-75% at each spirometry endpoint
Time Frame: From baseline until Week 12
|
From baseline until Week 12
|
|
Asthma Control Questionnaire-5 (ACQ-5) score change from baseline at EOT and at each assessment time point
Time Frame: From baseline until Week 12
|
The ACQ-5 is a questionnaire that measures the adequacy of asthma control and any changes in asthma control that may occur spontaneously or as a result of treatment.
The ACQ-5 has five questions on the asthma symptoms and patients are asked to recall how their asthma has been during the previous week and to respond on a 7-point scale for each question (0 = no impairment, 6 = maximum impairment).
The ACQ-5 score is the mean of the 5 questions and, therefore, between 0 (totally controlled) and 6 (severely uncontrolled).
A high score indicates low asthma control.
|
From baseline until Week 12
|
Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire with Standardized Activities (AQLQ[S]) Self-administered score change from baseline at EOT and at each assessment time point
Time Frame: From baseline until Week 12
|
The AQLQ(S) was designed as a self-administered patient reported outcome to measure the functional impairments that are most troublesome to adolescents and adults ≥12 years of age as a result of their asthma.
The instrument is comprised of 32 items, each rated on a 7-point Likert scales from 1 to 7. Higher scores indicate better quality of life.
|
From baseline until Week 12
|
Change in Asthma Daytime Symptom Diary (ADSD) and Asthma Nighttime Symptom Diary (ANSD) scores from baseline to EOT and each week
Time Frame: From baseline until Week 12
|
ADSD and ANSD assess asthma severity based on patient self-report of asthma core symptoms, i.e., difficulty of breathing; wheezing; shortness of breath; chest tightness; chest pain; and cough.
Both the ADSD and ANSD are composed of 6 items rated using an 11-point numerical rating scale (NRS) that ranges from 0 = None to 10 = As bad as you can imagine.
The participants will record their daytime and nighttime asthma symptoms in an electronic diary, once in the evening and once in the morning, respectively.

From baseline until Week 12
|
Plasma pharmacokinetic (PK) concentrations of rilzabrutinib in participants with asthma
