A Study to Examine the Safety, Tolerability and Effects on Abnormal Bone Formation of REGN2477 in Patients With Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva
A Study to Examine the Safety, Tolerability and Effects on Abnormal Bone Formation of REGN2477 in Patients With Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva
This is a three period study design consisting of a 6-month, randomized, double-blind
 placebo-controlled treatment (period 1) followed by a 6-month, open-label treatment (period
 2) and a follow-up treatment period (period 3).

 Primary safety objective of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability of REGN2477 in
 male and female patients with fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP).

 Primary efficacy objective of the study is to assess the effect of REGN2477 versus placebo on
 the change from baseline in heterotopic ossification (HO) in patients with FOP, as determined
 by 18-NaF uptake in HO lesions by positron emission tomography (PET) and in total volume of
 HO lesions by computed tomography (CT).

 Key Secondary objectives are:

 -  To compare the effect of REGN2477 versus placebo on pain due to FOP, as measured by the
 area under the curve (AUC) for pain based on daily pain numeric rating scale (NRS)
 scores

 -  To assess the effect of REGN2477 versus placebo on the change from baseline in HO, as
 determined by the number of new HO lesions identified by 18F-NaF PET or by CT

 -  To assess the effect of REGN2477 versus placebo on the change from baseline in 18F-NaF
 standardized uptake value maximum (SUVmax) of individual active HO site(s) by PET

 -  To assess the effect of REGN2477, between week 28 and week 56, on the number, activity,
 and volume of HO lesions identified by 18F-NaF PET or by CT in patients who switch from
 placebo to REGN2477 at week 28 versus the same patients between baseline and week 28

 -  To assess the effect of REGN2477 versus placebo on the change from baseline in
 biochemical markers of bone formation

 -  To characterize the concentrations of total activin A at baseline and over time
 following the first dose of study drug

 -  To characterize the concentration-time profile (pharmacokinetics [PK]) of REGN2477 in
 patients with FOP

 -  To assess the immunogenicity of REGN2477
Key Inclusion Criteria:

 -  Men and women 18 to 60 years of age at screening.

 -  Clinical diagnosis of FOP (based on findings of congenital malformation of the great
 toes, episodic soft tissue swelling, and/or progressive heterotopic ossification
 (HO)).

 -  Confirmation of FOP diagnosis with documentation of any ACVR1 mutation.

 -  FOP disease activity within 1 year of screening visit. FOP disease activity is defined
 as pain, swelling, stiffness, and other signs and symptoms associated with FOP
 flare-ups; or worsening of joint function, or radiographic progression of heterotopic
 ossifications (increase in site or number of HO lesions) with/without being associated
 with flare-up episodes.

 -  Willing and able to undergo PET and CT imaging procedures and other procedures as
 defined in this study.

 Key Exclusion Criteria:

 -  Significant concomitant illness or history of significant illness such as, but not
 limited to cardiac, renal, rheumatologic, neurologic, psychiatric, endocrine,
 metabolic or lymphatic disease, that in the opinion of the study investigator might
 confound the results of the study or pose additional risk to the patient by their
 participation in the study.

 -  Previous history or diagnosis of cancer.

 -  Use of bisphosphonate within 1 year of screening.

 -  Concurrent participation in another interventional clinical study, or a
 non-interventional study with radiographic measures or invasive procedures (e.g.
 collection of blood or tissue samples). Participation in the FOP Connection Registry
 or other studies in which participants complete study questionnaires are allowed.

 -  Treatment with another investigational drug, denosumab, imatinib or isotretinoin in
 the last 30 days or within 5 half-lives of the investigational drug, whichever is
 longer.

 -  Pregnant or breastfeeding women.

 -  Male and women of childbearing potential participants who are unwilling to practice
 highly effective contraception.
