E.1.1 | Medical condition(s) being investigated |
Indolent Systemic Mastocytosis |
|
E.1.1.1 | Medical condition in easily understood language |
Mastocytosis is a rare condition caused by an excess number of mast cells gathering in the body's tissues. In systemic mastocytosis, mast cells gather in tissues such as the skin, organs and bones. |

E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To determine the efficacy profile of PA101 delivered via a high efficiency nebulizer (eFlow®, PARI) in comparison with placebo following 6 weeks of treatment in patients with indolent systemic mastocytosis (ISM) who are symptomatic despite using standard treatments |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
To compare the efficacy and safety profile of PA101 to marketed oral cromolyn sodium (open-label control); To assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of PA101 |
|
E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | Yes |
E.2.3.1 | Full title, date and version of each sub-study and their related objectives |
Protocol AMD 3.1, 02Jul15: Skin assessments and skin biopsy at select treatment visits (i.e. V1 and V5) at each treatment period. These assessments will include provocation of Darier's sign (wheal and erythema reaction, itching and burning sensation), and skin biopsy (number of mast cells, and immunohistochemical staining for biomarkers).
Secondary efficacy measurements: - Change from baseline in skin reaction (wheal and erythema reaction, itching and burning sensation) - Change from baseline in skin mast cell burden (number of mast cells and biomarkers) |
