Summary

The MAZINGA study is a multicenter, open-label, single-arm Phase IIA clinical trial designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of zanubrutinib in patients with IgM anti-myelin-associated glycoprotein (anti-MAG) antibody-associated demyelinating polyneuropathy. Anti-MAG neuropathy is a rare immune-mediated disorder frequently associated with IgM monoclonal gammopathies, including monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS), Waldenström macroglobulinemia, marginal zone lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and other indolent B-cell lymphoproliferative disorders.

The primary objective of the study is to determine whether 12 months of treatment with zanubrutinib leads to a clinically meaningful neurological improvement, defined as an improvement of at least one point in at least two validated neurological scales. These include reductions in the Overall Neuropathy Limitations Scale (ONLS), INCAT Disability Score, and INCAT Sensory Sum Score (ISS), along with increases in the Medical Research Council (MRC) sum score and the I-RODS functional score.

Secondary objectives include the evaluation of neurophysiological improvement assessed by nerve conduction studies (ENG/EMG), particularly changes in distal motor latency, terminal latency index, and sensory action potential amplitude at 12, 24, and 48 months. Additional secondary endpoints assess hematological efficacy through overall response rate (complete response, very good partial response, or partial response), event-free survival, time to neurological progression, and overall survival. The safety profile of zanubrutinib will be characterized by the incidence, type, and severity of adverse events, serious adverse events, and events of special interest.

Eligible participants are adults (≥18 years) with a confirmed diagnosis of anti-MAG IgM-associated demyelinating polyneuropathy, evidence of a relevant IgM monoclonal gammopathy, elevated anti-MAG antibody titers, and measurable neurological disability. Both treatment-naïve and relapsed/refractory patients are eligible. Key exclusion criteria include prior treatment with BTK inhibitors, aggressive lymphomas, significant axonal damage, uncontrolled comorbidities, active infections, pregnancy, or conditions that could interfere with study participation or safety evaluation.

The planned sample size is approximately 50 patients recruited from nine Italian centers. Statistical analyses will compare neurological outcomes with historical controls, estimate survival endpoints using Kaplan-Meier methods, and explore associations between clinical outcomes and molecular features. This study aims to provide robust prospective evidence on the role of BTK inhibition in anti-MAG neuropathy and to inform future therapeutic strategies for this rare and disabling condition.
