A Pilot Multicentric Open Study Assessing the Efficacy and Safety of NEMOlizumab in Patients ≥ 12yo With Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa (NEMODE)

3 novembre 2026 aggiornato da: Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nice

Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DEB) is an inherited mucocutaneous fragility disorder caused by pathogenic variants in COL7A1, leading to blistering, scarring, and significant morbidity. Pruritus is a major complication that substantially impairs patients' quality of life, yet effective treatment options remain limited. Nemolizumab, an interleukin-31 receptor alpha antagonist, inhibits IL-31 signaling, a pathway potentially involved in DEB-associated pruritus. Elevated IL-31 levels have been reported in patients with recessive DEB (RDEB) and correlated with pruritus severity, supporting its potential role as a therapeutic target. We hypothesize that nemolizumab may represent an effective and safe treatment option for pruritus in patients with DEB.

Descrizione dettagliata

Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a heterogeneous group of rare inherited disorders characterized by skin and mucosal fragility leading to the formation of blisters, erosions, and scars. It is traditionally subdivided into four main subtypes: simplex, junctional, dystrophic (EBD), and Kindler. The dystrophic form (DEB) is associated with dominant or recessive pathogenic variants in the COL7A1 gene, which encodes type VII collagen, an essential component of the anchoring fibrils that ensure dermo-epidermal adhesion.

Available epidemiological data estimate the prevalence of hereditary EB at approximately 11 cases per million people in the United States, with an incidence of about 2.72 new cases per 1 million live births. DEB accounts for approximately 25% of EB cases and can present in autosomal dominant or recessive forms.

EBD is associated with significant morbidity, particularly due to chronic complications such as pruritus and fibrosis, which significantly impair patients' quality of life and independence. To date, there is no curative treatment. Management relies on a multidisciplinary approach that is primarily symptomatic. Recently, B-VEC, a topical gene therapy designed to restore COL7A1 expression in skin lesions to promote healing, has received regulatory approval. However, its accessibility is limited

Descrizione

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Subject male or female
  2. Age ≥ 12 years old
  3. Subject has recessive (Severe, Intermediate, Inversa or Pruriginosa) or dominant (Intermediate or Pruriginosa) dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, confirmed by skin immunomapping and/or molecular analysis (one or 2 COL7A1 mutation(s)), according to the last EB classification 4) Subject has at least a baseline pruritus score ≥ 4/10.

5) Subject agrees not to use any topical therapies other than the investigator approved (VYJUVEK gel is accepted if ongoing at the time of the study, excepted on the left leg) 6) A female participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant or breastfeeding, and at least 1 of the following conditions applies: 7) (a) Is not a Women of Childbearing Potential (WOCBP) OR 8) Is a WOCBP and using a contraceptive method that is highly effective (with a failure rate of <1% per year), preferably with low user dependency, during the study period until the end of her participation to the study. Effective method of birth control recommended by the Clinical Trials Facilitation and Coordination group are combined (oestrogen and progestogen containing) hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral or intravaginal or transdermal); progestogen-only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral or injectable or implantable); intrauterine device; intrauterine hormone-releasing system; bilateral tubal occlusion 9) Subject is in good general health and free of any known disease state or physical condition which, in the investigator's opinion, might impair his evaluation or which exposes the subject to an unacceptable risk by study participation.

10) Subject is willing and able to follow all study instructions and to attend all study visits.

11) Subject is able to comprehend and willing to sign an Informed Consent and/or Assent Form.

12) Affiliation with a social security scheme.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Subjects who are treated with DUPILUMAB or JAK inhibitor. A wash out of 2 months is mandatory to be included.

  2. Subjects with uncontrolled asthma.
