ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber of Treatment-emergent AEs (TEAEs)/SAEsWeek 52 to Week 464Assessment of safety and tolerability of ianalumab (VAY736) in patients with active Sjogrens syndrome
SecondaryPercentage of participants achieving ≥ 5 points reduction from baseline in ESSDAIOver time up to Week 360
EULAR Sjogren's syndrome disease activity index (ESSDAI) is a validated clinical disease outcome measure for Sjogrens that will be used in the study The instrument contains 12 organ-specific domains contributing to assessment of disease activity. For each domain, features of disease activity are scored by a clinician in 3 or 4 (Level 0=No disease activity to Level 3= high disease activity) levels according to their severity. These scores are then summed across the 12 domains in a weighted manner to provide the total score. The maximum possible score is 123.To calculate ESSDAI, all 12 organ domains must be individually assessed by a trained assessor (study Investigator) at every scheduled timepoint. This is to evaluate the long-term efficacy of VAY736 300 mg administered monthly or every 3 months.
SecondaryPercentage of participants achieving ≥2.3 points reduction from baseline in ESSPRI among participants with baseline ESSPRI ≥3 score over timeOver time up to Week 360
The EULAR Sjogren's Syndrome Patient Reported Index (ESSPRI) questionnaire consists of three items to be given an activity level score between 0-10: pain (joint and/or muscle pain), fatigue and dryness (0 = no symptom at all and 10 = worst symptom imaginable ESSPRI is an established disease outcome measure for Sjogrens. It consists of three domains of dryness, pain and fatigue. The participant will assess severity of symptoms they experience on a single 0-10 numerical scale for each of the three domains. The ESSPRI score is defined as a mean of scores from the three scales: (dryness + pain + fatigue) /3.
SecondaryPercentage of participants achieving ≥2.0 points reduction from baseline in SSSD among participants with baseline SSSD ≥3Over time up to Week 360
The Sjogrens Syndrome Symptom Diary (SSSD) questionnaire consists of five (six for females) questions about symptoms of Sjögren's syndrome, each question given a score of 0-10 (0=no symptoms, 10=worst possible symptoms) where patient choose the one response that best describes how severe the symptom was at its worst in the PAST 24 HOURS. It includes six symptom items (eye dryness, mouth dryness, skin dryness, physical fatigue, muscle and/or joint pain, genital dryness), and applies a recall period of 24 hrs. The aim of the SSSD is to establish patient reported endpoints for the treatment of Sjogrens syndrome. Participants will complete the diary daily for 7 days prior to the scheduled dosing.
SecondaryPre-dose Ianalumab serum concentrationspre-dose at Week 48 (from core study) and Week 64To show comparability of ianalumab Ctrough between 2x 1 mL PFS (from the NEPTUNUS core studies) and 1x 2 mL PFS for participants on continuous monthly treatment.
SecondaryOn-treatment Ianalumab serum concentrationsDuring treatment (from Week 52 to Week 204) and follow-up (From Week 208 to Week 304)To further assess the pharmacokinetics of ianalumab.
SecondaryB-cell count measurementWeek 52 to Week 304To assess impact of long-term treatment on B-cell depletion.
