Summary

The IMCY-MS-001 study is a study to test a new experimental drug, IMCY-0141, for the treatment of Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis (RR-MS).

The pathophysiology of MS with known myelin autoantigens and T cell epitopes makes this disease a particularly attractive indication for development of an immunotherapeutic based on the Imcyse technology.

Based on the unique mechanism of action of the drug, IMCY-0141 administered as early as possible after confirmation of the diagnosis may potentially switch-off the autoimmune process and limit the corresponding myelin destruction. Newly (recently) diagnosed patients will be targeted to tackle the disease at its onset.

Before launching any efficacy studies, safety of IMCY-0141 in MS patients must be evaluated with a phase I, open-label, dose escalation clinical trial to evaluate the safety of three IMCY-0141 doses followed by a phase II, double-blind, randomized study with an adaptive design to determine if any IMCY-0141 dose(s) offer superior efficacy relative to placebo and to assess immune responses and biomarker data as potential early predictors of efficacy of IMCY-0141 in adults presenting with RR-MS.

Conditions

  • Multiple Sclerosis, Relapsing-Remitting

Interventions

DRUG

IMCY-0141

The investigational medicinal product (IMP) consists in a small synthetic peptide (23 amino acids - IMCY-0141) combining a known human epitope of MOG flanked with a thioredox motif, presented in the form of a freeze-dried sterile powder and diluent for subcutaneous (SC) administration. The diluent includes the adjuvant aluminium hydroxide (alum) at a concentration of 900 μg/mL. Treatment will be injected within 4h of resuspension of the powder with the diluent. Treatment will consist of 6 immunizations (separated by 14 days) of the IMP by SC injection in the upper arm, in the region of the triceps (lateral part of the arm, midway between the elbow and the shoulder). Half of the dose to be administered will be injected concomitantly in both arms.

DRUG

Placebo

The placebo will be administered by subcutaneous route, once every two weeks for 6 times. Placebo will be administered to patients randomized in the "placebo" group during Phase II only.

DRUG

Dimethyl Fumarate

Dimethyl Fumarate (DMF) will be given orally, according to its SmPC for the whole duration of the study. Dimethyl Fumarate (DMF) will be administered to patients randomized in the active control group during Phase II only.
