Description
Summary
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of 15-week treatment with ALXN2420 versus placebo for decreasing insulin-like growth factor IGF-1 levels, when administered in combination with somatostatin analog (SSA) therapy to adult participants with acromegaly.
Official Title
A Phase 2, Randomized, Double-blinded, Placebo-controlled, Dose Range-finding, Multicenter Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Pharmacokinetics of ALXN2420, a Growth Hormone Receptor Antagonist, Administered Subcutaneously in Combination With Somatostatin Analogs in Adult Participants With Acromegaly

Eligibility
You can join if…
Open to people ages 18-80
- Documented diagnosis of acromegaly, that is, historically documented evidence of a GH-secreting pituitary adenoma based on MRI or pathology report
- Must be receiving maximum, or maximally tolerated dose per treating physician judgment, of long-acting SSAs (octreotide or lanreotide LAR) and meet both of the following:
- Received for ≥ 6 months prior to screening
- Receiving a once-monthly regimen (approximately every 4 weeks). Note: participants on stable regimens of other durations (for example, every 3 or 6 weeks) are not eligible
- Must be a partial responder to SSAs defined as > 20% relative IGF 1 reduction during the course of SSA therapy
- Serum IGF-1 levels > 1.3 to 5*ULN inclusive, as assessed at a central laboratory and adjusted for age and sex, based on average of 2 consecutive values obtained during the Screening Period and obtained ≥ 7 days apart
You CAN'T join if...
- Had surgery for pituitary adenoma within the last 6 months before Day 1 or planning to receive surgery for pituitary adenoma during the study
- Pituitary adenoma that, per Investigator's judgment, is worsening as assessed by pituitary/sellar MRI or computed tomography scan obtained ≤ 6 months prior to screening
- Pituitary adenoma causing compression of the chiasm
- Clinical evidence of symptomatic hyperprolactinemia that would necessitate treatment with dopamine agonists
- Known hypothyroidism or hypocortisolism not adequately treated with a stable dose of thyroid or glucocorticoid hormone replacement therapy for ≥ 3 months prior to Screening
- Active, clinically significant cardiac disease as judged by the Investigator
- History of unstable angina, stroke, or acute myocardial infarction ≤ 3 months prior to screening
- Known uncontrolled type 2 diabetes (HbA1c > 10%)
- Active malignant disease ≤ 2 years prior to screening with exception of basal and squamous cell carcinoma of the skin
- Received any type of fractionated radiotherapy or a second surgical adenectomy for pituitary adenoma within the last 3 years (5 years for conventional radiation) before starting treatment and/or are planning to receive radiotherapy or a second surgical adenectomy during the study
- Received pegvisomant ≤ 8 weeks prior to screening
- Received dopamine agonists ≤ 4 weeks prior to screening
- Received pasireotide LAR ≤ 4 months prior to screening
- Clinically significant renal or hepatic disease at the time of screening, as judged by the Investigator
- eGFR (CKD-EPI formula) < 30 mL/minute/1.73 m2 documented based on recent value (< 3 months prior to randomization)
- Clinically significant abnormal values for hematology, biochemistry, coagulation, or urinalysis, as judged by the Investigator, including, but not limited to, total bilirubin > 1.5*ULN (except if in free bilirubin linked to a known Gilbert Syndrome) or AST, ALT, or alkaline phosphatase > 2*ULN
