Official title
Evaluating the Efficacy and Speed of Response of Lebrikizumab in High-Burden Prurigo Nodularis Patients: A 24-Week Study
Overview
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of lebrikizumab in treating adults with moderate-to-severe Prurigo Nodularis (PN).
Detailed description
This study is a Phase II, single center, open-label, single-arm clinical trial. Study participation will last up to 32 weeks, including a 4-week screening period, a 24-week treatment period with all participants receiving lebrikizumab injections, and a 4-week safety follow up period.
Interventions
- Drug Lebrikizumab
Participants will receive subcutaneous injections of Lebrikizumab every two weeks for 24 weeks. The first two doses will be 500 mg, and following doses will be 250 mg.
Primary outcome measures
- Percent change from baseline in weekly average Peak Pruritus Numeric Rating Scale (PP-NRS) at week 24 [Time frame: Baseline; Week 24]
- Percentage of patients achieving an Investigator Global Assessment for Prurigo Nodularis Stage (IGA PN-S) score of 0 or 1 [Time frame: Baseline; Week 24]
Secondary outcome measures (7)
- Percentage of subjects achieving at least a 4-point reduction from baseline in weekly average PP-NRS at Week 24 [Time frame: Baseline; Week 24]
- Percent change from baseline in Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) scores at week 24 [Time frame: Baseline; Week 24]
- Percent change from baseline in The Sleep Disturbance Numerical Rating Scale (SD-NRS) at week 24 [Time frame: Baseline; Week 24]
- Percent change from baseline in 5D-Pruritus Scale at week 24 [Time frame: Baseline; Week 24]
- Percent change from baseline in Prurigo Activity Score (PAS) at week 24 [Time frame: Baseline; Week 24]
- Percent change from baseline in HADS anxiety and depression scale at week 24 [Time frame: Baseline; Week 24]
- Percent change from baseline in Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) at week 24 [Time frame: Baseline; Week 24]
