Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This Phase 3 study was designed to confirm the efficacy and safety of eliglustat tartrate (Genz-112638) in participants with Gaucher disease Type 1.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Eliglustat tartrate
  • Drug: Placebo
Phase 3

Detailed Description

Gaucher disease is characterized by lysosomal accumulation of glucosylceramide due to impaired glucosylceramide hydrolysis. Type 1 Gaucher disease, the most common form accounts for greater than (>) 90% of cases and does not involve the central nervous system (CNS). Typical manifestations of Type 1 Gaucher disease include splenomegaly, hepatomegaly, thrombocytopenia, anemia, skeletal pathology and decreased quality of life. The disease manifestations are caused by the accumulations of glucosylceramide (storage material) in Gaucher cells which have infiltrated the spleen and liver as well as other tissue. Eliglustat tartrate is a small molecule developed as an oral therapy which acts to specifically inhibit production of this storage material in Gaucher cells.

This study was designed to determine the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of eliglustat tartrate in adult participants (>16 years) with Gaucher disease Type 1. The study consisted of 2 periods: The Double-Blind Primary Analysis Period (PAP [Day 1 to Week 39]) and the Long Term Treatment Period (LTTP/Open-Label Period (post-Week 39 [Day 1 of the Open-Label Period] through study completion).

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Active

Eliglustat

Drug: Eliglustat tartrate
PAP: Eliglustat tartrate (ET) capsule 50 mg orally on Day 1 followed by ET 50 mg capsule twice daily (BID) from Day 2 to Week 4, then either ET 50 mg capsule BID (participants with Genz-99067 [active moiety of ET in plasma] trough plasma concentration >=5 ng/mL) or ET 100 mg capsule BID (participants with Genz-99067 trough plasma concentration <5 ng/mL), up to Week 39. PK assessment at Week 2 used for dose adjustment after Week 4. LTTP: Participants of the eliglustat arm in PAP who completed PAP were included in LTTP and received ET capsule 50 mg BID orally from Day 1 (post Week 39) until Week 43 followed by ET 50 mg or 100 mg capsule BID up to Week 47, then ET 50 mg or 100 mg or 150 mg capsule BID up to Week 312. Dose adjustments at Week 43 and Week 47 were based on Genz-99067 trough plasma concentrations (if trough plasma concentration <5 ng/mL: next higher dose administered; if >=5 ng/mL: same dose continued) at Week 41 & Week 45, respectively.

  • Placebo Comparator: Placebo

    Placebo

    Drug: Placebo
    PAP: Matching placebo capsule once daily on Day 1 followed by matching placebo capsule BID from Day 2 through Week 39. LTTP: Participants of the placebo arm in PAP who completed PAP were included in LTTP and received eliglustat tartrate from Day 1 (post Week 39) up to Week 312. Day 1 (post Week 39) was considered as baseline for LTTP. On Day 1, participants received eliglustat tartrate capsule 50 mg BID orally until Week 43 followed by eliglustat tartrate 50 mg or 100 mg capsule BID up to Week 47, then eliglustat tartrate 50 mg or 100 mg or 150 mg capsule BID up to Week 312. Dose adjustments at Week 43 and Week 47 were based on Genz-99067 trough plasma concentrations (if trough plasma concentration <5 ng/mL: next higher dose administered; if >=5 ng/mL: same dose continued) at Week 41 & Week 45, respectively.

    Study Results

    Participant Flow

    Recruitment Details A total of 72 participants were screened between 5 November 2009 and 29 July 2011, of which 32 participants were screen failure. Overall 40 participants were enrolled and the study was conducted across 18 centers in 12 countries.
    Pre-assignment Detail The 40 participants who met inclusion criteria received placebo or Genz-112638 (eliglustat tartrate) during 39 weeks primary analysis period (PAP). After Week 39 of the PAP, all participants who remained in the study received eliglustat tartrate in the long-term treatment period (LTTP) for up to Week 312.
    Arm/Group Title PAP: Eliglustat PAP: Placebo LTTP: Eliglustat (Originally on Eliglustat) LTTP: Eliglustat (Originally on Placebo)
    Arm/Group Description Eliglustat tartrate capsule as a single 50 milligram (mg) dose on Day 1 followed by eliglustat tartrate 50 mg capsule twice daily (BID) from Day 2 to Week 4, and then either eliglustat tartrate 50 mg capsule BID (in participants who had a Genz-99067 [active moiety of eliglustat tartrate in plasma] trough plasma concentration greater than or equal to [>=] 5 nanogram per milliliter [ng/mL]) or eliglustat tartrate 100 mg capsule BID (in participants who had a Genz-99067 trough plasma concentration less than [<] 5 ng/mL), up to Week 39. The pharmacokinetic (PK) assessment at Week 2 was used for dose adjustment after Week 4. Matching placebo capsule once daily on Day 1 followed by matching placebo capsule BID from Day 2 through Week 39. Participants of the eliglustat arm in PAP who completed PAP were included in LTTP and received eliglustat tartrate capsule 50 mg BID orally from Day 1 (post Week 39) until Week 43 followed by eliglustat tartrate 50 mg or 100 mg capsule BID up to Week 47, then eliglustat tartrate 50 mg or 100 mg or 150 mg capsule BID up to Week 312. Dose adjustments at Week 43 and Week 47 were based on Genz-99067 trough plasma concentrations (if trough plasma concentration <5 ng/mL: next higher dose administered; if >=5 ng/mL: same dose continued) at Week 41 & Week 45, respectively. Participants of the placebo arm in PAP who completed PAP were included in LTTP and received eliglustat tartrate from Day 1 (post Week 39) up to Week 312. Day 1 (post Week 39) was considered as baseline of LTTP for this arm. On Day 1, participants received eliglustat tartrate capsule 50 mg BID orally until Week 43 followed by eliglustat tartrate 50 mg or 100 mg capsule BID up to Week 47, then eliglustat tartrate 50 mg or 100 mg or 150 mg capsule BID up to Week 312.

Dose adjustments at Week 43 and Week 47 were based on Genz-99067 trough plasma concentrations (if trough plasma concentration <5 ng/mL: next higher dose administered; if >=5 ng/mL: same dose continued) at Week 41 & Week 45, respectively. Participants of the placebo arm in PAP who completed PAP were included in LTTP and received eliglustat tartrate from Day 1 (post Week 39) up to Week 312. Day 1 (post Week 39) was considered as baseline of LTTP for this arm. On Day 1, participants received eliglustat tartrate capsule 50 mg BID orally until Week 43 followed by eliglustat tartrate 50 mg or 100 mg capsule BID up to Week 47, then eliglustat tartrate 50 mg or 100 mg or 150 mg capsule BID up to Week 312. Dose adjustments at Week 43 and Week 47 were based on Genz-99067 trough plasma concentrations (if trough plasma concentration <5 ng/mL: next higher dose administered; if >=5 ng/mL: same dose continued) at Week 41 & Week 45, respectively.

    Title LTTP: Percent Change From Baseline in Liver Volume (in MN) at Week 234
    Description Percent change in liver volume = ([liver volume at Week 234 minus liver volume at baseline] divided by [liver volume at baseline]) multiplied by 100, where all volumes are in MN. Baseline values for the original placebo participants refer to Day 1 of LTTP and baseline values for the original eliglustat participants refer to the Day 1 of PAP.

    Analysis Population Description
    ITT population for LTTP included all participants who received at least 1 dose of eliglustat in LTTP period. Number of participants analyzed=participants evaluable for this outcome measure and had available data for baseline and Week 234 liver volume assessment.
