A Study to Evaluate Crovalimab in People With Antiphospholipid Syndrome (APS)

February 26, 2026 updated by: Hoffmann-La Roche

A Phase II, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Multicenter Study Evaluating Efficacy, Safety, and Pharmacokinetics of Crovalimab in Patients With Antiphospholipid Syndrome (APS)

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of crovalimab compared with placebo as an add-on therapy to vitamin K antagonist (VKA) in participants with APS.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Age ≥18 years and ≤70 years, and body weight ≥40 kilograms (kg), at the time of signing Informed Consent Form
  • Vaccination against N. meningitidis, H. influenzae type B, and S. pneumoniae
  • Participants classified with APS who have experienced at least two prior arterial and/or venous thrombotic events, based on the 2023 American College of Rheumatology/European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology (ACR/EULAR) criteria, positive for at least two of the following: lupus anticoagulant (LAC) test, anticardiolipin antibodies (aCL), anti-β2-glycoprotein 1 antibodies (aβ2GP1)
  • Participants receiving corticosteroids, antimalarial treatment, non-biologic disease-modifying rheumatic drugs, statins, and low dose aspirin must be on a stable dose prior to the first dose of study treatment
  • Willingness and ability to comply with a VKA regimen titrated to a therapeutic target internal normalized ratio (INR)
  • Agreement to adhere to the contraception requirements

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Pregnant or breastfeeding, or intention of becoming pregnant during the study or within the time frame in which contraception is required
  • Treatment with investigational therapy, complement inhibitor, and/or other immune-suppressive biologic therapy within 5 half-lives of that agent prior to screening visit, or plans to participate in another investigational trial
  • Presence of another systemic autoimmune disease that is unstable and requires additional treatment, and constitutes the principal illness and may impact evaluation of the concurrent APS
  • Inadequate renal and hepatic function
  • Uncontrolled hyperlipidemia and/or hypertension, known diabetes mellitus, and/or serious infection requiring hospitalization or antibiotics prior to Week 1 Day 1
  • History or condition associated with increased bleeding risk

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Crovalimab + VKA
Participants will receive 3 loading doses of crovalimab, 680 milligrams (mg) or 1020 mg, as a subcutaneous (SC) injection based on their body weight (BW) at Weeks 1, 2 and 3 followed by maintenance doses, every 4 weeks (Q4W) from Week 5 until arterial thrombosis, venous thromboembolism or cardiovascular death. Participants will also receive VKA with a target internal normalized ratio (INR) based on investigator's discretion and local guidance.
Crovalimab will be administered at a dose of 680 mg (for participants with BW ≥ 40 kilograms [kg] to < 100 kg) or 1020 mg (for participants with BW ≥ 100 kg), as a SC injection, at Weeks 1, 2, and 3 and Q4W from Week 5 onwards.
Other Names:
  • RO7112689; SKY59; PIASKY
Dose administration of VKA will be in accordance with the local prescribing information for the respective product. The VKA regimen will be titrated to a therapeutic target INR based on investigator discretion and local standard of care (SOC).
Placebo Comparator: Placebo + VKA
Participants will receive 3 doses of placebo as a SC injection with equal volume dosing as the weight-based crovalimab at Weeks 1, 2, and 3, followed by Q4W doses, as a SC injection, from Week 5 until arterial thrombosis, venous thromboembolism, or cardiovascular death. Participants will also receive VKA with a target INR based on the investigator's discretion and local guidance.
Dose administration of VKA will be in accordance with the local prescribing information for the respective product. The VKA regimen will be titrated to a therapeutic target INR based on investigator discretion and local standard of care (SOC).
Placebo matching crovalimab will be administered as per the schedule specified in the respective arm.
