Health Condition(s) or Problem(s) studied
Therapeutic area: Diseases [C] - Nervous System Diseases [C10]
Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CIDP)
MedDRA version: 19.0 Level: PT Classification code 10061811 Term: Demyelinating polyneuropathy System Organ Class: 10029205 - Nervous system disorders
Intervention(s)

Trade Name: Hizentra®
Product Name: Hizentra®
Product Code: IgPro20
Pharmaceutical Form: Solution for injection
INN or Proposed INN: Human normal immunoglobulin (SCIg)
CAS Number: 0
Current Sponsor code: IgPro10-SOL
Concentration unit: mg/ml milligram(s)/millilitre
Concentration type: equal
Concentration number: 200-
Pharmaceutical form of the placebo: Solution for injection
Route of administration of the placebo: Subcutaneous use

Primary Outcome(s)
Main Objective: To determine the efficacy of 2 different doses of IgPro20 (0.2 g/kg bw and/or 0.4 g/kg bw) in the maintenance treatment of CIDP in comparison to placebo.
Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: During SC treatment period - 24 weeks
Secondary Objective: - To investigate the efficacy of IgPro20 with additional clinical outcome measures in comparison to placebo.
- To investigate the safety and tolerability of IgPro20 in comparison to placebo.
- To investigate health-related quality of life (HRQL) following treatment with IgPro20.
- To investigate the safety and efficacy of IgPro10 re-stabilization therapy.
- To investigate the safety and efficacy of IgPro10 rescue therapy.
Primary end point(s): Efficacy:
Percentage (%) of subjects who have a CIDP relapse during SC treatment or are withdrawn from the study during SC treatment for any reason.
Secondary Outcome(s)
Secondary end point(s): Efficacy:
• Changes in means at SC Treatment Period completion visit compared to baseline between groups in:
- INCAT score.
- Mean grip strength (dominant/non-dominant hand).
- MRC sum score.
- R-ODS.
• Difference in “time to CIDP relapse or withdrawal due to any other reason” using a Kaplan-Meier estimation comparing both IgPro20 groups with placebo as well as the 2 IgPro20 groups pairwise.
• Time to improvement on IgPro10 re-stabilization therapy (INCAT, R-ODS, Grip strength).
• Changes in means before and at the end of IgPro10 re-stabilization or rescue therapy in
- Mean grip strength (dominant/non-dominant hand).
- MRC sum score.
- R-ODS.
- INCAT disability score.
• Time to improvement after CIDP relapse in the SC Treatment Period and IgPro10 rescue therapy, defined as a decrease in INCAT score back to or below baseline.
Safety:
• For IgPro20: Rate of AEs per infusion, number and % of subjects with AEs during the SC Treatment Period
• For IgPro10: rate of AEs per infusion, number and % of subjects with AEs during IVIG Restabilization Period and during IVIG rescue therapy.
Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: During study - up to 52 weeks
