Press Release    LOGO

Phase 2 data published in NEJM show potential of frexalimab as high-efficacy therapy in relapsing MS

 

   

High-dose frexalimab significantly reduced disease activity, demonstrating 89% reduction in new brain lesions

   

Phase 3 trials in relapsing MS and non-relapsing secondary progressive MS currently underway

Paris, February 15, 2024. The New England Journal of Medicine published results from a positive Phase 2 clinical trial demonstrating frexalimab significantly slowed disease activity in people with relapsing multiple sclerosis (MS), corresponding to 89% and 79% reduction in new gadolinium-enhancing (GdE) T1 brain lesions at Week 12 in the high- and low-dose treatment arms compared to placebo, meeting the study’s primary endpoint. Findings also showed both doses of frexalimab provided significant reduction in new or enlarging T2 lesions, a secondary endpoint of the study. Frexalimab is Sanofi’s novel second-generation investigational anti-CD40L antibody that has a unique method of action with the potential to address both acute and chronic neuroinflammation in MS without causing lymphocyte depletion. These data were previously presented at Consortium of Multiple Sclerosis Centers annual meeting 2023.

Patrick Vermersch, MD, PhD

University of Lille, CHU Lille, France

“These published Phase 2 results for frexalimab represent important data in not only the potential treatment of MS but to the broader MS community. Of note, at Week 12, both doses of frexalimab provided reduction of new lesions – a standard measure of active inflammation in MS – and was well-sustained over time and well tolerated, especially at the high dose of frexalimab where 96% of patients were free of new active lesions after 24 weeks of treatment.”

Results published in NEJM stem from the Phase 2 clinical trial that randomized 129 adults with relapsing MS to receive one of two doses of the anti-CD40L antibody frexalimab (n=52 and n=51, in the high- and low-dose treatment arms, respectively) or matching placebo (n=12 and n=14, respectively; pooled for efficacy analyses). In the high-dose treatment arm, participants received 1200 mg of frexalimab intravenously every 4 weeks with an 1800 mg loading dose. In the low-dose treatment arm, participants received 300 mg of frexalimab subcutaneously every 2 weeks with a 600 mg loading dose. After 12 weeks of treatment, both doses of frexalimab led to significant reductions in:

   

The number of new GdE T1-lesions at Week 12, providing rate ratios of 0.11 (95% CI, 0.03 to 0.38) and 0.21 (95% CI, 0.08 to 0.56), corresponding to 89% and 79% reduction in the high- and low-dose treatment arms versus placebo, the primary endpoint.

   

The number of new/enlarging T2-lesions at Week 12, providing rate ratios of 0.08 (95% CI, 0.03 to 0.26) and 0.14 (95% CI, 0.05 to 0.41), corresponding to 92% and 86% reduction in the high- and low-dose treatment arms versus placebo, respectively, a secondary endpoint.

   

The total number of GdE T1-lesions at Week 12 providing rate ratios of 0.12 (95% CI, 0.04 to 0.36) and 0.20 (95% CI, 0.07 to 0.53) corresponding to 88% and 80% reduction, respectively, another secondary endpoint.

The effects on the primary endpoint were sustained over time across both treatment arms, with even greater reduction seen in the high-dose frexalimab treatment arm, as 96% of these study participants were free of new GdE T1-lesions at Week 24.

Exploratory endpoints looked at changes in the Multiple Sclerosis Impact Scale 29 (MSIS-29), a patient-reported outcome, plasma neurofilament light chain (NfL), which has been identified as a biomarker of neuroaxonal damage and MS disease activity, as well as plasma levels of CXCL13, a biomarker of inflammatory activity. Over 12 weeks of treatment, patient-reported outcome

MSIS-29 physical impact scores improved significantly in participants receiving the higher dose of frexalimab. The least-square [LS] mean difference (95% confidence interval) was -7.9 (-14.7,-1.2), compared to pooled placebo. Both doses of frexalimab achieved a reduction in NfL levels relative to baseline (24% and 18% in the high-and low-dose treatment arms, respectively) and in CXCL13 levels relative to baseline (21% and 30% in the high-and low-dose treatment arms, respectively) compared to pooled placebo at Week 12.

Frexalimab was well-tolerated, and 125 (97%) participants completed Part A and continued to the open-label Part B. The most common adverse events (5%) in any frexalimab-treated group were COVID-19 (n=5 [9.8%] in the lower-dose group; all uncomplicated cases of mild or moderate intensity) and headache (n=1 [2.0%] and n=3 [5.8%] in the low- and high-dose group, respectively).

Sanofi has initiated Phase 3 clinical trials of frexalimab in relapsing MS and non-relapsing secondary progressive MS.

About the Phase 2 trial

The Phase 2 trial was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial evaluating frexalimab in participants with relapsing MS. Participants were randomized (4:4:1:1) to receive either high or low doses of frexalimab or matching placebo for 12 weeks (Part A). The primary endpoint was the reduction in the number of new GdE T1 MRI brain lesions at Week 12. Secondary endpoints included additional MRI-based efficacy measures as well as the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of frexalimab. After Week 12, participants receiving placebo switched to respective frexalimab arms and entered the open-label Part B, which is currently ongoing.

About frexalimab

Frexalimab (SAR441344) is a potentially best-in-disease second generation investigational anti-CD40L antibody that blocks the costimulatory CD40/CD40L pathway which is important for activation and function of adaptive (T and B cells) and innate (macrophages/microglia and dendritic cells) immunity. Through this unique upstream mechanism of action, frexalimab has the potential to address both acute and chronic neuroinflammation in MS, without causing lymphocyte depletion. Sanofi is developing frexalimab under an exclusive license from ImmuNext Inc. Frexalimab is being evaluated in Phase 3 clinical trials for Multiple Sclerosis and Phase 2 clinical trials for Sjogren’s Syndrome, Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, and Type 1 Diabetes, and its safety and efficacy have not been reviewed by any regulatory authority. For more information on frexalimab clinical trials, please visit www.clinicaltrials.gov.

Press Release

Japan first in the world to approve Dupixent® for chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU)

 

  *

Approval based primarily on results from Phase 3 trial showing Dupixent significantly reduced itch compared to placebo

  *

CSU is the fifth approved indication for Dupixent in Japan and the sixth indication for Dupixent globally

Paris and Tarrytown, N.Y. February 16, 2024. The Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare (MHLW) in Japan has granted marketing and manufacturing authorization for Dupixent® (dupilumab) for the treatment of chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) in people aged 12 years and older whose disease is not adequately controlled with existing therapy. Japan is the first country to approve Dupixent for CSU, emphasizing the value of Dupixent as a novel treatment option to manage this disease in patients with unmet needs.

CSU is a chronic inflammatory skin disease driven in part by type 2 inflammation, which causes sudden and debilitating hives and persistent itch. CSU is typically treated with histamine (H1) antihistamines, medicines that target H1 receptors on cells to control symptoms of urticaria. However, the disease remains uncontrolled despite antihistamine treatment in many patients, some of whom are left with limited alternative treatment options. These individuals continue to experience symptoms that can be debilitating and significantly impact their quality of life. Approximately 110,000 people aged 12 years and older suffer from uncontrolled moderate-to-severe CSU in Japan, for which there are currently limited treatments.

The Japanese approval is based primarily on data from Study A of the LIBERTY-CUPID clinical trial program evaluating Dupixent as an add-on therapy to standard-of-care H1 antihistamines compared to antihistamines alone (placebo) in 138 patients with CSU who remained symptomatic despite antihistamine use and were not previously treated with omalizumab. This study met the primary and all key secondary endpoints. Patients taking Dupixent added to standard-of-care antihistamines experienced a significant reduction in itch severity compared to standard of care alone at 24 weeks. The safety profile of Dupixent in CSU was generally consistent with the known safety of Dupixent in its approved dermatological indications.

In addition to CSU, Dupixent is approved in Japan in certain patients with atopic dermatitis, asthma, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis (CRSwNP), and prurigo nodularis.

About Dupixent

Dupixent is a fully human monoclonal antibody that inhibits the signaling of the interleukin-4 (IL-4) and interleukin-13 (IL-13) pathways and is not an immunosuppressant. The Dupixent development program has shown significant clinical benefit and a decrease in type 2

inflammation in Phase 3 trials, establishing that IL-4 and IL-13 are key and central drivers of the type 2 inflammation that plays a major role in multiple related and often co-morbid diseases. These diseases include approved indications for Dupixent, such as atopic dermatitis, asthma, CRSwNP, prurigo nodularis and eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE).

Dupixent has received regulatory approvals in one or more countries around the world for use in certain patients with atopic dermatitis, asthma, CRSwNP, EoE, prurigo nodularis, and CSU in different age populations. Dupixent is currently approved for one or more of these indications in more than 60 countries, including in Japan, Europe and the U.S. More than 800,000 patients are being treated with Dupixent globally.

The potential use of Dupixent in CSU is under clinical development in additional countries around the world, and its safety and efficacy have not been fully evaluated by any regulatory authority outside of Japan.

Dupilumab development program

Dupilumab is being jointly developed by Sanofi and Regeneron under a global collaboration agreement. To date, dupilumab has been studied across more than 60 clinical trials involving more than 10,000 patients with various chronic diseases driven in part by type 2 inflammation.

In addition to the currently approved indications, Sanofi and Regeneron are studying dupilumab in a broad range of diseases driven by type 2 inflammation or other allergic processes in Phase 3 trials, including chronic pruritus of unknown origin, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with evidence of type 2 inflammation, and bullous pemphigoid. These potential uses of dupilumab are currently under clinical investigation, and the safety and efficacy in these conditions have not been fully evaluated by any regulatory authority.

Dupixent® sBLA accepted for FDA Priority Review for treatment of COPD with type 2 inflammation

 

  *

Priority Review granted based on positive results from two Phase 3 trials

  *

If approved, Dupixent would be the only biologic therapy for COPD and the first new treatment approach for the disease in more than a decade

  *

Regulatory submissions are also under review in China and Europe

Paris and Tarrytown, N.Y. February 23, 2024. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has accepted for Priority Review the supplemental Biologics License Application (sBLA) for Dupixent® (dupilumab) in a sixth potential indication as an add-on maintenance treatment in certain adult patients with uncontrolled chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The target action date for the FDA decision is June 27, 2024. Regulatory submissions are also under review in China and the European Union.

The sBLA, as well as other submissions around the world, is supported by data from the Phase 3 COPD clinical research program evaluating the efficacy and safety of Dupixent in adults who were current or former smokers with uncontrolled COPD with evidence of type 2 inflammation (screening blood eosinophils >300 cells/microliter). All patients were on background maximal standard-of-care inhaled therapy (nearly all on triple therapy). The primary endpoint was met in both trials (BOREAS, NOTUS), showing Dupixent significantly reduced annualized moderate or severe acute COPD exacerbations by 30% and 34% respectively, compared to placebo. In both trials, Dupixent also rapidly and significantly improved lung function compared to placebo, with improvements sustained at 52 weeks.

Safety results in both trials were generally consistent with the known safety profile of Dupixent in its approved indications. Adverse events more commonly observed with Dupixent (5%) compared to placebo in either trial were back pain, COVID-19, diarrhea, headache and nasopharyngitis.

Priority Review is granted to regulatory applications seeking approval for therapies that have the potential to provide significant improvements in the treatment, diagnosis or prevention of serious conditions. The potential use of Dupixent in COPD is currently under clinical development, and its safety and efficacy for this indication have not been fully evaluated by any regulatory authority.

About COPD

COPD is a respiratory disease that damages the lungs and causes progressive lung function decline. Symptoms include persistent cough, breathlessness and excessive mucus production that may not only impair the ability to perform routine daily activities, but can also lead to anxiety, depression and sleep disturbances. COPD is also associated with a significant health and economic burden due to recurrent acute exacerbations that require systemic corticosteroid treatment and/or lead to hospitalization. Smoking and exposure to noxious particles are key risk factors for COPD, but even individuals who quit smoking can still develop or continue having the disease. There have been no new treatment approaches approved for more than a decade. In the U.S., approximately 300,000 people live with uncontrolled COPD with evidence of type 2 inflammation.

About Sanofi and Regeneron’s COPD Clinical Research Program

Sanofi and Regeneron are motivated to transform the treatment paradigm of COPD by examining the role different types of inflammation play in the disease progression through the investigation of two potentially first-in-class biologics, Dupixent and itepekimab.

Dupixent inhibits the signaling of the interleukin-4 (IL-4) and interleukin-13 (IL-13) pathways and the program focuses on a specific population of people with evidence of type 2 inflammation. Itepekimab is a fully human monoclonal antibody that binds to and inhibits interleukin-33 (IL-33), an initiator and amplifier of broad inflammation in COPD.

Itepekimab is currently under clinical investigation, with two Phase 3 trials currently enrolling, and its safety and efficacy have not been evaluated by any regulatory authority.

About Dupixent

Dupixent is a fully human monoclonal antibody that inhibits the signaling of the interleukin-4 (IL-4) and interleukin-13 (IL-13) pathways and is not an immunosuppressant. The Dupixent development program has shown significant clinical benefit and a decrease in type 2 inflammation in Phase 3 trials, establishing that IL-4 and IL-13 are key and central drivers of the type 2 inflammation that plays a major role in multiple related and often co-morbid diseases. These diseases include approved indications for Dupixent, such as atopic dermatitis, asthma, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis (CRSwNP), eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), prurigo nodularis and chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU).

Dupixent has received regulatory approvals in one or more countries around the world for use in certain patients with atopic dermatitis, asthma, CRSwNP, EoE, prurigo nodularis and CSU in different age populations. Dupixent is currently approved for one or more of these indications in more than 60 countries, including in Europe, the U.S. and Japan. More than 800,000 patients are being treated with Dupixent globally.

Dupilumab Development Program

Dupilumab is being jointly developed by Sanofi and Regeneron under a global collaboration agreement. To date, dupilumab has been studied across more than 60 clinical trials involving more than 10,000 patients with various chronic diseases driven in part by type 2 inflammation.

In addition to the currently approved indications, Sanofi and Regeneron are studying dupilumab in a broad range of diseases driven by type 2 inflammation or other allergic processes in Phase 3 trials, including chronic spontaneous urticaria, chronic pruritus of unknown origin, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with evidence of type 2 inflammation and bullous pemphigoid. These potential uses of dupilumab are currently under clinical investigation, and the safety and efficacy in these conditions have not been fully evaluated by any regulatory authority.

Phase 2 results demonstrate rilzabrutinib rapidly reduced itch severity and significantly improved disease activity in adults with chronic spontaneous urticaria

 

   

Late-breaking data at 2024 AAAAI showed rilzabrutinib, an oral BTK inhibitor, significantly reduced weekly itch severity score (ISS7) as early as the first week of treatment in adults with moderate to severe CSU

   

Data form the basis for the Phase 3 CSU and prurigo nodularis programs to start in 2024

   

Pivotal Phase 3 readout in immune thrombocytopenia and Phase 2 readouts in asthma, IgG4-related disease and warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia expected in 2024

   

Rilzabrutinib is one of 12 potential blockbusters in Sanofi’s leading immunology pipeline

Paris, February 24, 2024. Positive results from the Phase 2 study RILECSU showed that rilzabrutinib significantly improved itch, hives and urticaria in adults with moderate-to-severe chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU), whose symptoms are not adequately controlled by H1 antihistamines. These results were presented today in a late-breaking poster at the 2024 American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (AAAAI) Annual Meeting in Washington, DC and form the basis for the Phase 3 program which is on track to start in 2024.

Professor Marcus Maurer, M.D.

Professor of Dermatology and Allergy, Executive Director of the Institute of Allergology at the Charité Berlin

“People with CSU are living with debilitating symptoms such as intensely itchy recurrent hives, swelling, or both which can have a high impact on their day-to-day lives. These data are promising news for patients that cannot be controlled with standard-of-care antihistamines – the possibility of controlling itch rapidly with an oral medicine would offer an important advancement in the treatment of this disease.”

Naimish Patel, M.D.

Head of Global Development, Immunology and Inflammation, Sanofi

“These data reinforce the potential of rilzabrutinib as a treatment option for patients with moderate-to-severe CSU and we believe that the rapid improvement of itch could make a meaningful difference in alleviating the physical and psychosocial burden these patients suffer from. Based on these data, later this year we will advance rilzabrutinib into Phase 3 development in both CSU and prurigo nodularis, another skin disorder characterized by relentless itching. We also look forward to data readouts for rilzabrutinib in 2024 with the opportunity to further demonstrate its potential impact across multiple immune-mediated diseases.”

Key Results

In this dose-ranging study, different doses of rilzabrutinib were evaluated: 400 mg once every evening (QPM), 400 mg twice a day (BID), 400 mg three times a day (TID).

In the intent-to-treat (ITT) population which included either patients who were previously naïve or incomplete responders to omalizumab, Rilzabrutinib 400 mg TID demonstrated:

   

Significant reduction from baseline in weekly itch severity score (ISS7) at Week 12, a key symptom of the disease, [least squares mean (LSM) -9.58 vs -6.31, respectively; p=0.0181]. Significant changes in ISS7 were seen as early as Week 1.

   

Significant reduction from baseline to week 12 in weekly urticaria activity score (UAS7) [LSM -17.95 vs -11.20, respectively; p=0.0116].

   

Significant reduction from baseline to week 12 in weekly hives severity score (HSS7) [LSM -8.31 vs -4.89; p<0.0100].

Internal

Rilzabrutinib was generally well-tolerated with no events of cytopenia, bleeding or atrial fibrillation seen with other BTK inhibitor. Treatment-emergent AEs occurring at a higher frequency with rilzabrutinib vs placebo were diarrhea (29.3% TID and BID, 7.9% QPM, 15% placebo), nausea (19.5% TID, 17.1% BID, 13.2% QPM, 5.0% placebo), headache (9.8% TID, 14.6% BID, 5.3% QPM, 0.0% placebo) and abdominal pain (0.0% TID, 12.2% BID, 2.6% QPM, 5.0% placebo).

Rilzabrutinib is currently under clinical investigation, and its safety and efficacy have not been evaluated by any regulatory authority.

About CSU

CSU is an inflammatory skin condition driven mainly by the activation of cutaneous mast cells, which causes itchy recurrent hives, swelling, or both. CSU is typically treated with H1 antihistamines and biologics; however, the disease remains uncontrolled in up to 50% of patients, who are left with limited alternative treatment options. These individuals continue to experience debilitating symptoms that can significantly impact quality of life.

About the RILECSU study

RILECSU is a 52-week Phase 2 study, comprising a 12-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-ranging, efficacy and safety period, followed by a 40-week open-label extension period.

RILECSU is evaluating rilzabrutinib in adult patients with moderate-to-severe CSU who remain symptomatic despite use of H1 antihistamine treatment and are either naïve to or incomplete responders to omalizumab. The primary endpoint was change from baseline in weekly itch severity score ISS7 at 12 weeks. Secondary endpoints include change from baseline in weekly UAS7 at 12 weeks and change from baseline weekly HSS7 at 12 weeks.

Participants in the trial (n=160) were randomized 1:1:1:1 to rilzabrutinib 400mg once every evening (QPM), 400mg twice a day (BID), 400mg three times a day (TID), or matching placebo.

About Rilzabrutinib

Rilzabrutinib is an oral, reversible, covalent BTK inhibitor that has the potential to be a first- or best-in-class treatment of a number of immune-mediated diseases. BTK, expressed in B cells and mast cells, plays a critical role in multiple immune-mediated disease processes. With the application of Sanofi’s TAILORED COVALENCY® technology, rilzabrutinib can selectively inhibit the BTK target while potentially reducing the risk of off-target side effects.
