Summary

Primary Objective: To assess the safety and tolerability of GZ402668 after ascending single intravenous (IV) and subcutaneous (SC) doses in men and women with progressive multiple sclerosis. Secondary Objectives: To assess the following in men and women with progressive multiple sclerosis:

- The pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters of GZ402668 after ascending single IV doses.

- The pharmacodynamics (PD) of GZ402668 after ascending single IV doses.

- The PK parameters of GZ402668 after ascending single SC doses.

- The PD of GZ402668 after ascending single SC doses.

Clinical Details

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Study of Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of Ascending Single Intravenous and Subcutaneous Doses of GZ402668 in Men and Women With Progressive Multiple Sclerosis

Study design: Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Double Blind (Subject, Investigator), Primary Purpose: Treatment

Primary outcome: Number of participants with treatment emergent adverse events

Secondary outcome:

maximum concentration (Cmax)

area under curve (AUC)

Number of participants with lymphocyte depletion

Number of participants with anti-drug antibodies

Number of participants with injection site reactions

Number of participants with corrected QT interval (QTcF) prolongation

Detailed description: The total study duration from screening for a patient can be approximately up to 8 weeks. Upon completion of this trial, patients treated with GZ402668 will be required to enroll in a 4 year safety follow-up study for continued safety observation.
