Study summary

The purpose of this randomized, double-blind study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of mepolizumab (300 milligram [mg] administered subcutaneously [SC] every 4 weeks) compared with placebo over a 52-week study treatment period in subjects with relapsing or refractory Eosinophilic Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis (EGPA) receiving standard of care therapy including background corticosteroid therapy with or without immunosuppressive therapy. During the treatment period, in accordance with standard of care, corticosteroid dose will be tapered. The key outcomes in the study focus on evaluation of clinical remission, defined as Birmingham Vasculitis Activity Score (BVAS)=0 with a corticosteroid dose of \<=4 mg/day prednisolone/prednisone, reduction in disease relapse and reduction in corticosteroid requirement.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(23)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Biopsy and archival tissue

A biopsy takes a small piece of tissue to examine. “Archival tissue” is a sample already taken, for example at diagnosis, and kept by the hospital.

Whether a stored sample will do depends on when it was taken, how much there is and what the study needs. Ask whether the study accepts your stored sample or needs a new biopsy.

Relapsed and refractory

Relapsed: the illness came back after treatment had worked. Refractory: it did not respond to treatment, or stopped responding while still on it.

Corticosteroids (steroids)

Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.

Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.

Immunosuppression

A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.

Read whether the line is about a condition or about medicines, and which medicines and doses it means.

ECG (electrocardiogram)

A recording of the heart’s electrical activity, taken with stickers on the chest, arms and legs. It takes a few minutes and does not hurt.

QT and QTc

On an ECG, the QT interval is the time the heart’s lower chambers take to activate electrically and recover in each beat. QTc is that time adjusted for heart rate (QTcF by Fridericia’s formula, QTcB by Bazett’s). Some medicines lengthen it, and a long QTc can raise the risk of a dangerous heart rhythm.

The study may name a correction formula and a limit in milliseconds, often around 450–480.

Childbearing potential

Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).

Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.

Contraception

Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.

Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.

ALT and AST (liver enzymes)

Two enzymes measured in a routine blood test of the liver. Higher levels can mean the liver is under strain or damaged. SGPT and SGOT are older names for ALT and AST.

Criteria usually give a limit as a multiple of the upper limit of normal (ULN), often higher when cancer has spread to the liver.

ULN (upper limit of normal)

The top of the normal range for a blood test, as set by the laboratory that runs it. Each lab prints its own range next to your result.

“≤ 2.5 × ULN” means the result can be up to two and a half times that top value.

Bilirubin

A yellow substance made when red blood cells are broken down, which the liver clears. A high level can mean a problem with the liver or the bile ducts.

Criteria often allow more for people with Gilbert’s syndrome, a harmless inherited condition that raises bilirubin.

Hemoglobin (Hb)

The protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen. A low level is anaemia, which can cause tiredness and breathlessness. Measured in g/dL or g/L (9 g/dL is 90 g/L).

LVEF (left ventricular ejection fraction)

The share of blood the heart’s main pumping chamber (the left ventricle) pushes out with each beat, measured by an echocardiogram (heart ultrasound) or a MUGA scan. About 50–70% is normal.

NYHA class (heart failure)

The New York Heart Association’s four classes of how much heart failure limits physical activity.

I
No limits: ordinary activity causes no undue tiredness or breathlessness.
II
Slight limits: comfortable at rest, ordinary activity causes symptoms.
III
Marked limits: comfortable at rest, less than ordinary activity causes symptoms.
IV
Symptoms even at rest; any activity makes them worse.

Studies set their own limit — many outside heart failure leave out class III–IV, while heart failure studies may ask for a particular class. Check the class this study names.

Cancer (malignancy)

Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.

Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.

Clinically significant

Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.

Autoimmune disease

A condition in which the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, type 1 diabetes or inflammatory bowel disease.

Immunotherapy studies often leave out active autoimmune disease, and some name exceptions, such as thyroid disease on replacement hormone. Check the exceptions this study lists.

Hepatitis B tests

Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.

Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.

HIV

The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.

Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

Platelets

Blood cells that help blood clot. Too few raises the risk of bleeding and bruising. A usual adult range is about 150–400 × 10⁹/L (150,000–400,000 per µL); each lab has its own reference range.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants in Each Category of Accrued Duration of Remission

    Total accrued duration of remission is the accrued number of weeks where Birmingham Vasculitis Activity Score (BVAS) =0 plus prednisolone/prednisone dose \<=4 mg/day over the 52 week study treatment period was reported. The accrued duration was categorized into zero, \>0 to \<12 weeks, 12 to \<24 weeks, 24 to \<36 weeks and \>=36 weeks. Statistical analysis was based on a proportional odds regression model with covariates including treatment group, Baseline prednisolone/prednisone daily dose, Baseline BVAS score and region. Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Population was used for the analysis and was defined as all participants who were randomized and received at least one dose of trial medication. Randomized participants were assumed to have received study treatment unless definitive evidence to the contrary exists. The odds ratio for treatment difference and associated probability (p)-value and 95 percent confidence interval (CI) were calculated.

    Time frame: Up to Week 52

  2. Number of Participants Who Are in Remission at 36 and 48 Weeks

    The number of participants who were in remission (i.e ., BVAS=0 and prednisolone /prednisone \<=4 mg/day) at both Weeks 36 and 48 of the study treatment period was reported. The statistical analysis was performed using a logistic regression model on ITT Population. The odds ratio for treatment difference and associated p-value and 95 percent CI were calculated.

The average dose was categorized into zero, \>0 to \<=4.0mg, \>4.0 to \<=7.5mg and \>7.5mg. The statistical analysis was performed using a proportional odds regression model with Baseline covariates of treatment group, Baseline prednisolone/prednisone daily dose, Baseline BVAS score and region and the comparison between treatment groups was presented as an odds ratio, p-value and 95 percent CI.

    Time frame: Week 48 and Week52

  3. Number of Participants Who Achieved Remission Within the First 24 Weeks and Remained in Remission for the Remainder of the Treatment Period

    The number of participants who achieved remission (i.e., BVAS=0 and prednisolone/prednisone\<=4 mg/day) within the first 24 weeks and remain in remission for the remainder of the study treatment period was reported. The statistical analysis was performed using a logistic regression model on ITT Population. The odds ratio for treatment difference and associated p-value and 95 percent CI were calculated.

    Time frame: Up to Week 52

  4. Number of Participants in Each Category of Accrued Duration of Remission

    Total accrued duration of remission, i.e., the accrued number of weeks where Birmingham Vasculitis Activity Score (BVAS) =0 plus prednisolone/prednisone dose \<=7.5mg/day over the 52 week study treatment period was reported. BVAS is a validated, clinician-completed tool used for the comprehensive multisystem clinical assessment of disease activity in systemic vasculitis. The duration was categorized into zero, \>0 to \<12 weeks, 12 to \<24 weeks, 24 to \<36 weeks and \>=36 weeks. Statistical analysis was performed on ITT Population and was based on a proportional odds regression model with covariates including treatment group, Baseline prednisolone/prednisone daily dose, Baseline BVAS score and region.

    Time frame: Up to Week 52

  7. Number of Participants With Local and Systemic Adverse Events (AEs)

    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. AEs including systemic allergic and non-allergic reactions as well as local site injection-related reactions were counted throughout treatment phase and follow up phase. Systemic allergic reactions included Facial paralysis, flushing, hypersensitivity and rash pruritic. Injection related reactions were considered as systemic non-allergic reactions. Local site reactions included injection site bruising, erythema, pain and reaction. The analysis was performed on Safety Population which comprised of all participants who receive at least one dose of study treatment.

Outcome measures

PrimaryNumber of Participants in Each Category of Accrued Duration of Remission

Total accrued duration of remission is the accrued number of weeks where Birmingham Vasculitis Activity Score (BVAS) =0 plus prednisolone/prednisone dose \<=4 mg/day over the 52 week study treatment period was reported. The accrued duration was categorized into zero, \>0 to \<12 weeks, 12 to \<24 weeks, 24 to \<36 weeks and \>=36 weeks. Statistical analysis was based on a proportional odds regression model with covariates including treatment group, Baseline prednisolone/prednisone daily dose, Baseline BVAS score and region. Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Population was used for the analysis and was defined as all participants who were randomized and received at least one dose of trial medication. Randomized participants were assumed to have received study treatment unless definitive evidence to the contrary exists. The odds ratio for treatment difference and associated probability (p)-value and 95 percent confidence interval (CI) were calculated.

SecondaryChange From Baseline in Clinical Chemistry Parameter of Troponin Levels

Blood samples were collected to evaluate change from Baseline in troponin values at Baseline throughout the 52 weeks study treatment and 8-weeks follow up period. Baseline values were taken at Visit 2 and change from Baseline was defined as post-dose visit value minus Baseline value. Only those participants with data available at the specified data points were analyzed (represented by n= X in the category titles). Mean and standard deviation (SD) were measured.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Jan 31, 2018, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
