An Investigator-Initiated Study of Efgartigimod PH20 SC in Adult Patients with Primary Sjogren's Disease (pSjD) with Moderate to Severe Dryness

Basic Information

Recruitment status Recruiting
Health condition(s) or Problem(s) studiedPrimary Sjogren's Disease-Associated Dryness Symptoms
Date of first enrollment01/08/2025
Target sample size45
Countries of recruitment
Study typeInterventional
Intervention(s)Screening period (<=4 weeks): Participants will attend a baseline visit within 4 weeks after the screening visit. Double-blinded treatment period (24 weeks): Following randomization, participants will enter a 24-week double-blinded treatment period, during which efgartigimod PH20 SC or placebo PH20 SC will be injected subcutaneously starting on day 1 (baseline) and continuing until week 23. Follow-up observational period or open-label extension period (48 weeks): At the end of the double-blinded treatment period (week 24), participants will be given the option to roll over to the open-label extension treatment period. If they choose not to roll over, they will be monitored during a 56-day treatment-free safety follow-up period.

Outcome(s)

Primary Outcome-Change from baseline in ESSPRI-dryness at week 24
Secondary Outcome-Change from baseline in ESSPRI-total score at week 24 -Change from baseline in ESSPRI-fatigue score at week 24 -Change from baseline in ESSPRI-pain score at week 24 -Proportion of responders (improvement of ESSPRI-total score >1.0 point/15%) at week 24 -The proportion of responders in STAR at week 24 -Change from baseline in DiSSA total score at week 24 -Change from baseline in DiSSA joint pain at week 24 -Change from baseline in DiSSA fatigue at week 24 -Change from baseline in DiSSA dryness at week 24
