Interventions

• Foralumab — DRUG
  Foralumab nasal solution is a preservative-free, sterile, clear, colorless-to-slightly-yellow solution filled in an Aptar Unidose nasal atomizer device. Each Unidose device contains 0.13 mL foralumab placebo nasal solution, sufficient for administration to a single nare. Two Aptar Unidose devices will be used for a single dose (one device per nare). Each Unidose device contains foralumab nasal solution, supplied at either 25 μg foralumab or 50 μg foralumab, sufficient for administration into a single nare.
• Placebo — OTHER
  Foralumab placebo nasal solution is a preservative-free, sterile, clear, colorless-to-slightly-yellow solution filled in an Aptar Unidose nasal atomizer device. Each Unidose device contains 0.13 mL foralumab placebo nasal solution, sufficient for administration to a single nare. Two Aptar Unidose devices will be used for a single dose (one device per nare).

Study Details

Foralumab is a human anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody being developed for the treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. The goal of this Phase 2a, randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled, multicenter dose-ranging study is to evaluate the use of nasal foralumab in patients with non-active secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (SPMS). The primary objectives that this study aims to answer are: 1. To determine the safety and tolerability of 50 μg/dose and 100 μg/dose of foralumab nasal compared to placebo 2. To investigate the effect of foralumab relative to placebo on the change from baseline \[18F\]PBR06-positron emission tomography (PET) scans for microglial activation, after 12 weeks (3) months of study treatment.
