Study design
Study Design:
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter phase 2
study of the safety and efficacy of 3-month SC REGN1033 treatment in patients
with sarcopenia. Approximately 240 patients will be randomized in a 1:1:1:1
ratio to receive placebo SC every 2 weeks (Q2W) for a total of 6 treatments,
REGN1033 at 300 mg SC Q2W for a total of 6 treatments,
REGN1033 at 300 mg SC every 4 weeks (Q4W) for a total of 3 treatments (with
placebo on alternating weeks), and REGN1033 at 100 mg SC Q4W for a total of 3
treatments (with placebo on alternating weeks). The study has a
screening/pretreatment period (day -28 to day -1), a 12-week treatment period
(day 1 to day 85), and an 8-week follow-up period (through
day 141).
Screening and Pretreatment Procedures (Day -28 to Day -1):
There will be a sequential screening process across 3 visits, with initial
eligibility determined at visit 1, and pretreatment procedures performed at
visit 2 and visit 3. If feasible at the sites, visit 1 and visit 2 may be
conducted at the same time - if so, the visit 2 procedures should still be
performed within 21 days of the first dose of study drug. Initial eligibility
will be determined at visit 1 by standard screening procedures, as well as
4-meter [4M] gait speed and the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score.
Patients who meet the initial eligibility criteria will return to the clinic at
visit 2 and visit 3 for pretreatment baseline procedures and measurements. The
procedures consist of standard safety and laboratory assessments,
DEXA scans, echocardiograms, strength measures (leg press, chest press, and
handgrip strength), and function measures (stair climb, Short Physical
Performance Battery [SPPB], 4M gait speed, and 6-Minute Walk Test [6MWT]).
Treatment Period and Study Drug Administration (Day 1 to Day 85):
Starting on day 1, patients will be randomized to receive either REGN1033 or
matching placebo. The injections will be administered in the abdomen. Patients
will be observed for 30 minutes for vital signs and collection of adverse
events (AEs), including occurrence of injection site reactions. Efficacy and
safety procedures will be performed, as well as patient-reported outcomes
(PROs). Blood samples will be collected for pharmacokinetics (PK), anti-drug
antibodies (ADAs), and research. All blood samples should be collected after an
overnight fast and before dosing.
Follow-Up (Day 86 to Day 141):
The follow-up visit will be on day 141, 8 weeks after the end of treatment
visit on day 85.
Study Duration:
The total expected duration of the study is up to 24 weeks (including the
screening period of up to 4 weeks).
Intervention
Study Group 1 receives 300 mg study drug (injection) every two weeks for a
total of 6 treatments.
Study Group 2 receives 300 mg study drug (injection) every four weeks for a
total of 3 treatments and placebo (injection) doses on alternating weeks.
Study Group 3 receives 100 mg study drug (injection) every four weeks for a
total of 3 treatments and placebo (injection) doses on alternating weeks.
Study Group 4 receives matching placebo (injection) every two weeks for a total
of 6 treatments.
In order to monitor for any possible cardiac changes, the patient will have 4
electrocardiograms (ECGs) and 2 echocardiograms (ECHO, also known as a cardiac
ultrasound) during the trial. Depending on the results of these examinations,
the study doctor may decide to stop treatment with the study drug and refer the
patient to an appropriate specialist.
Several questionnaires, DEXA scans (a special x-ray to measure fat and muscle
in your body), strength and function tests will be required to monitor the
effect of the study drug on the muscle mass. In order to achieve accurate study
results, a whole body DEXA as well as strength and function tests will be done
about 6 times at various time points during the study.
