Study to Evaluate the Effects of Fasinumab on Peripheral Nerve Function in Patients With Pain Due to Osteoarthritis of the Hip or Knee
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the effect of fasinumab compared to placebo on peripheral nerves in participants with pain due to Osteoarthritis (OA) of the hip or knee.
The secondary objectives of the study are to:
-
Evaluate the efficacy of fasinumab compared to placebo in participants with pain due to OA of the hip or knee
-
Evaluate the safety and tolerability of fasinumab compared to placebo in participants with pain due to OA of the hip or knee
-
Characterize the concentrations of fasinumab in serum in participants with pain due to OA of the hip or knee
-
Evaluate the immunogenicity of fasinumab in participants with pain due to OA of the hip or knee.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Change in peroneal motor nerve conduction velocity [Baseline to week 16]
An electrophysiological evaluation using standard electrophysiological techniques to measure the speed and extent of nerve conduction
- Change in peroneal motor nerve action potential amplitude [Baseline to week 16]
An electrophysiological evaluation using standard electrophysiological techniques to measure the speed and extent of nerve conduction
- Change in sural sensory nerve conduction velocity [Baseline to week 16]
An electrophysiological evaluation using standard electrophysiological techniques to measure the speed and extent of nerve conduction
- Change in sural sensory nerve action potential amplitude [Baseline to week 16]
An electrophysiological evaluation using standard electrophysiological techniques to measure the speed and extent of nerve conduction
- Change in ulnar sensory nerve conduction velocity [Baseline to week 16]
An electrophysiological evaluation using standard electrophysiological techniques to measure the speed and extent of nerve conduction
- Change in ulnar sensory nerve action potential amplitude [Baseline to week 16]
An electrophysiological evaluation using standard electrophysiological techniques to measure the speed and extent of nerve conduction
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Change in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) pain subscale score [Baseline to week 16]
The WOMAC measures five items for pain (score range 0-20), two for stiffness (score range 0-8), and 17 for functional limitation (score range 0-68)
- Change in WOMAC physical function subscale score [Baseline to week 16]
The WOMAC measures five items for pain (score range 0-20), two for stiffness (score range 0-8), and 17 for functional limitation (score range 0-68)
- Incidence of Adjudicated arthropathy (AA) [Week 16]
As confirmed by an independent adjudication committee
- Incidence of Adjudicated arthropathy (AA) [Week 36]
As confirmed by an independent adjudication committee
- Incidence of Destructive arthropathy (DA) [Week 16]
As confirmed by an independent adjudication committee
- Incidence of Destructive arthropathy (DA) [Week 36]
As confirmed by an independent adjudication committee
- Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAEs) [Up to 64 weeks]
- Incidence of Sympathetic Nervous System (SNS) dysfunction [Up to 36 weeks]
As diagnosed after consultation with an appropriate specialist, such as a neurologist and/or cardiologist
- Incidence of peripheral sensory Adverse Events (AEs) that require a neurology consultation [Up to 64 weeks]
- Incidence of all-cause joint replacement (JR) surgeries [Week 16]
- Incidence of all-cause JR surgeries [Week 36]
- Incidence of JRs at telephone survey [52 weeks after last dose of study drug]
