About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Dermatomyositis, Polymyositis, Sjogren's, SLE, SSc focused on measuring Polymyositis, dermatomyositis, Sjogren's syndrome, SLE, SSc

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 65 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Key Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Age 18-65 years old
  2. Diagnoses of dematomyositis, polymyositis, Sjogren's syndrome, systemic lupus erythematosus and/or systemic sclerosis based on standard criteria.
  3. Weight 40-120kg
  4. Stable disease such that in the opinion of the investigator it is unlikely that a change in subject's therapeutic regimen would be required during the subsequent 3 months.

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  1. History of a hypersensitivity reaction or anaphylaxis to a previous mAb or human immunoglobulin therapy.
  2. Chronic hepatitis B, chronic hepatitis C, or HIV infection.
  3. History of latent or active tuberculosis (TB), or a positive QuantiFERON®-TB Gold test at screening.
  4. Herpes zoster infection within 3 months before randomization
  5. Any of the following medications within 6 months of Day 1: cyclophosphamide, leflunomide > 20 mg/day, abatacept.
  6. Receipt of a mAb within 5 published half-lives prior to Day 1.
  7. Receipt of rituximab or an experimental B-cell depleting mAb within 6 months of Day 1.
  8. Receipt of rituximab or an experimental B-cell depleting mAb without return of CD19 or CD20 count to above the lower limit of normal.
  9. Receipt of alemtuzumab, bone marrow transplantation, stem cell transplantation, total lymphoid irradiation, or T-cell vaccination therapy -

Arm Description

Three subjects (cohort 1) and six subjects (cohort 2-5) will receive MEDI7734 for a total of 27 subjects.

One subject (cohort 1) and two subjects (cohort 2-5) will receive placebo, for a total of 9 subjects.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Event
The safety and tolerability of MEDI7734 as measured by the incidence of any adverse events that occur on or after the day of administration of investigational product through the end of follow-up. Laboratory measurements, vital sign measurements, and electrocardiogram (ECG) parameters will also be evaluated as part of safety.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Anti-drug antibodies
Presence of anti-drug antibodies (ADA)
Pharmacokinetics Cmax
Maximum concentration of drug achieved
Pharmacokinetics Tmax
Time at which maximum concentration of drug is achieved
Pharmacokinetic
Half Life
Pharmacokinetic
AUC
Pharmacodynamics
Blood levels of plasmacytoid cells.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
To evaluate the safety and tolerability of escalating, single subcutaneous doses of MEDI7734 in adult subjects with type I interferon-mediated autoimmune diseases.
Detailed Description
MEDI7734 is a human monoclonal antibody that binds to and causes temporary depletion of plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs), a type of white blood cell. The objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety, drug levels, and pDC levels in subjects who are given a single injection of MEDI7734 or a placebo. The study will be conducted in subjects with at least one of the five following autoimmune diseases: dermatomyositis, polymyositis, Sjogren's syndrome, systemic lupus erythematosus, or systemic sclerosis. After a screening period, subjects will be randomized in a 3:1 ratio to receive a single dose of MEDI7734 or matching placebo, administered as a subcutaneous (under the skin) injection. After that, subjects will be evaluated periodically at the study site over at least the next 85 days.
