Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Evelo will investigate the safety and tolerability of EDP1066 and its potential to be a medicinal product in healthy volunteers and individuals with mild to moderate psoriasis and atopic dermatitis.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Other: EDP1066
  • Drug: Placebo oral capsule
Phase 1

Detailed Description

This will be a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study with dose escalations to assess safety, tolerability, and pharmacodynamic effect of EDP1066. Since this clinical study is the first study in humans, the participants will be healthy volunteers or subjects with mild to moderate psoriasis or atopic dermatitis who are otherwise well. Investigation of EDP1066 in this patient population provides an opportunity to gain pharmacodynamic information using a range of tissue biopsies and composite clinical endpoints.

Study Design

Study Type:
Interventional
Actual Enrollment :
114 participants
Allocation:
Randomized
Intervention Model:
Sequential Assignment
Intervention Model Description:
The study is a double-blind dose escalation cohort study in healthy volunteers and participants with either mild to moderate psoriasis or mild to moderate atopic dermatitis. The study consists of 9 cohorts and will test doses of EDP1066 versus placebo. The safety and tolerability of EDP1066 will be tested in participants with psoriasis and atopic dermatitis alongside pharmacodynamic effects on the systemic immune system and observation of any clinical effects.The study is a double-blind dose escalation cohort study in healthy volunteers and participants with either mild to moderate psoriasis or mild to moderate atopic dermatitis.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Safety and tolerability measured through Adverse Events (AEs) [Day 1 to Day 60]

    Number of participants with AEs by seriousness and relationship to treatment

  2. Safety and tolerability measured through lab measurements [Day 0 to Day 60]

    Number of participants with clinically significant change from baseline (Day 0) in laboratory values

  3. Safety and tolerability measured through ECG [Day 0 to Day 60]

    Number of participants with clinically relevant changes from baseline (Day 0) ECG parameters

  4. Safety and tolerability measured through physical examination [Day 1 to Day 60]

    Physical examination of stool samples based on the Bristol Stool Scale (Types 3 and 4 are ideal stool): Type 1: Separate hard lumps, like nuts (hard to pass); Type 2: Sausage-shaped, but lumpy; Type 3: Like a sausage but with cracks on its surface; Type 4: Like a sausage or snake, smooth and soft; Type 5: Soft blobs with clear cut edges (easy to pass); Type 6: Fluffy pieces with ragged edges, a mushy stool; Type 7: Watery, no solid pieces, entirely liquid

  5. GI safety measurement through biomarker analysis [Day 1 to Day 60]

    GI safety measurement through fecal calprotectin analysis

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Clinical improvement in subjects with mild to moderate psoriasis [Day 0 to Day 60]

    Change from baseline (Day 0) Psoriasis-area-and-severity index score (PASI) in response to EDP1066, measured on a scale of 0 to 6 (where 0 is most favorable and 6 is least favorable).

  2. Clinical improvement in subjects with mild to moderate atopic dermatitis [Day 0 to Day 60]

    Change from baseline (Day 0) Eczema-area-and-severity index score (EASI) in response to EDP1066, measured on a scale of 0 to 6 (where 0 is most favorable and 6 is least favorable).
