Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber of Participants With Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and TolerabilityUp to 29 month
Any Adverse Event was defined as occurrence of any symptom regardless of intensity grade, Serious Adverse Event (SAEs) assessed as medical occurrences that result in death, are life threatening, require hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization or result in persistent or significant disability/incapacity
SecondaryChanges From Baseline in Lean Body Mass (LBM) by Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometery (DXA)Baseline, Day 1, 57, 113, 169, 365, 533, and day 729To assess the effect of multiple doses of BYM338 on lean body mass as measured by DXA in terms of change from baseline.
SecondaryPharmacokinetics (PK) Parameter of Cmin From Multiple i.v. DosingDay 29, 85, 169, 253, 337, 421, 505, 589, 673, 757, 1177To obtain pharmacokinetic data from multiple i.v. dosing of BYM338 in this patient population. Pre-dose, 30 mins \& 4 hours post-dose on Day 1. Pre-dose only on each subsequent administration
SecondaryChanges From Baseline in Physical Function Reported by PatientsBaseline, Week 104
Self-reported physical function was assessed by a newly developed patient reported outcome named sporadic inclusion body myositis (sIBM) functional assessment (sIFA). The sIFA consists of 11 items scored on an 11 point numerical rating scale from 0 (no difficulty) to 10 (unable to do) across 3 domains: upper body functioning, lower body functioning and general functioning. Participants completed the assessment where the recall period was the past week prior to completing the patient reported outcome (PRO). The total score on the sIFA scale ranges from 0 (minimum) to 110 (maximum). Higher values represent a worse outcome. A positive change from baseline indicates deterioration. Due to the no-signal this analysis was cancelled.
SecondaryChanges From Baseline in Muscle Strength.Baseline, Day 1, 113, 169, 365, 533, 729Quadriceps muscle strength was measured, Quadriceps Quantitative Muscle Testing (QMT) by portable fixed dynamometry (PFD). A negative change from baseline indicates deterioration
SecondaryChanges From Baseline in Muscle Function (Hand-grip and Pinch-grip Dynamometry)Baseline,Day 1, 113, 169, 365, 533, 729The effect of BYM338 on additional muscle function measures (hand-grip and pinch-grip dynamometry).
SecondaryChanges From Baseline in Muscle Function 6 Minute Walking DistanceBaseline,Day 1, 113, 169, 365, 533, 729
The effect of BYM338 on additional muscle function measures (6 minute walking distance). The 6MWD test measured the distance (in meters) that a participant walked in a 6 minute timeframe. A positive change from baseline indicates improvement.
SecondaryChange From Baseline of Thigh Muscle Volume (TMV) by MRI ScanBaseline, Day 1, 57, 113Thigh Muscle Volume (TMV) change was evaluated by a responder analysis. Patients whose loss of muscle TMV by MRI was equal or more than 2% at Week 8 and 16 were considered responders
SecondaryPharmacokinetics (PK) Parameter of CmaxDay 1To obtain pharmacokinetic data from multiple i.v. dosing of BYM338 in this patient population. Pre-dose, 30 mins \& 4 hours post-dose on Day 1.
SecondaryTime to Reach the Maximum Concentration After Drug Administration (Tmax)Day 1The time to reach the maximum concentration after drug administration
