Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Percentage of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events
Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) including clinically significant changes in physical examination, laboratory tests, and vital signs. An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug and did not necessarily had to have a causal relationship with the treatment. TEAEs were defined as AEs that developed or worsened or became serious during on-treatment phase that was defined as the time from the start of study drug up to study completion.
Percentage of Participants Who Are Able to Achieve Control of Disease Activity (CDA) Within 4 Weeks of Starting PRN1008 Treatment Without the Need for Doses of Prednisone or Prednisolone >0.5 mg/kg
CDA was defined as the time at which new lesions cease to form and established lesions begin to heal.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Percentage of Participants Able to Achieve Control of Disease Activity (CDA) Without Corticosteroids Within 4 Weeks
CDA was defined as the time at which new lesions cease to form and established lesions begin to heal.
Percentage of Participants Able to Achieve a Complete Response (CR) Without Corticosteroids
CR was defined as complete healing of all lesions and the absence of new lesions.
Percentage of Participants Able to Achieve Complete Remission (CR) Without the Need for Doses of Prednisone or Prednisolone of Greater Than 0.5mg/kg
CR was defined as complete healing of all lesions and the absence of new lesions.
Time to Control of Disease Activity (CDA)
CDA was defined as the time at which new lesions cease to form and established lesions begin to heal. Kaplan-Meier estimate median time is reported.
Time to End of Consolidation Phase (ECP)
ECP was defined as the time at which no new lesions have developed for minimum of 2 weeks, and approximately 80% of existing lesions have healed. The median time to ECP was based on Kaplan-Meier estimate which considered censoring at end of follow-up for patients who didn't have an event. A +/-3 days window for visits at Week 3 and 5, and +/-7 days window for visits at Week 9, 13, 17, 21, 25.
Time to Complete Remission (CR)
CR was defined as complete healing of all lesions and the absence of new lesions.
Time to Relapse After PRN1008 Treatment Discontinuation
Relapse was defined as appearance of ≥3 new lesions/month that do not heal spontaneously within 1 week, or by extension of established lesions, in a patient who has achieved disease control. The median time to relapse was based on Kaplan-Meier estimate which considered censoring at end of follow-up for patients who didn't have an event. A +/-3 days window for visits at Week 3 and 5, and +/-7 days window for visits at Week 9, 13, 17, 21, 25.
Cumulative Corticosteroid Usage
Cumulative corticosteroid usage
Percentage Change From Baseline in Pemphigus Disease Area Index (PDAI) Total Activity Scores
The PDAI questionnaire has 2 components including activity and damage. The activity component consists of skin, scalp and mucosa parts, and the damage component consists of skin and scalp parts. The total activity score was used for the summary of PDAI scores. PDAI total activity score = Total skin activity + Total scalp activity + Total mucosa activity. PDAI Total Activity Score ranged from 0 to 250 points representing disease activity (higher scores mean a worse outcome). Negative change in total activity score from baseline indicates improvement in pemphigus activity.
Change From Baseline in Autoimmune Bullous Skin Disorder Intensity Score (ABSIS) Total Activity Score
ABSIS Total Activity Score ranged from 0 to 206 points representing disease activity (higher scores mean a worse outcome). Negative change in total activity score from baseline indicates improvement in pemphigus activity.
Change From Baseline in Autoimmune Bullous Diseases Quality of Life (ABQOL)
ABQOL score ranged from 0 to 68 points representing disease activity (higher scores mean a worse outcome).
Change From Baseline in Treatment of Autoimmune Bullous Diseases Quality of Life (TABQOL) Scores
TABQOL score ranged from 0 to 68 points representing disease activity (higher scores mean a worse outcome).
Change From Baseline in Appetite (SNAQ Score)
Simplified Nutritional Appetite Questionnaire (SNAQ) score ranged from 0 to 20 points representing disease activity (higher scores mean a better outcome).

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Open-label cohort study in adult patients with newly diagnosed or relapsing pemphigus vulgaris, with intra-patient dose-adjustment based on clinical response and BTK occupancy, and with conventional immunosuppressive "rescue treatment", if indicated. The duration of therapy in Part A will be 12 weeks, followed by 12 weeks of follow up. The extension phase, Part B includes 24 weeks of therapy, followed by 4 weeks of follow-up.
Detailed Description
Primary Objectives: To evaluate the safety of PRN1008 in patients with pemphigus vulgaris (PV) To evaluate the clinical activity of PRN1008 in patients with PV, per criteria in the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology (EADV) 2014 Pemphigus S2 Guideline (Hertl et al. 2015) Secondary Objectives To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) and the pharmacodynamics (PD) of multiple doses of PRN1008 in patients with PV To evaluate the relationship of PK and PD to each other and to efficacy and safety in this patient population
