E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
Analysis of the incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) collected up to the 6-month follow-up visit.
|
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
Cohorts 1-4 (AG019 only): Study day 1, 4, 7, 12, 28, 56, 90, 180 Cohorts 5-6 (AG019 + teplizumab): Study day 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 28, 56, 90, 180 |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
The PD activity of the study drug(s) will be assessed by measurement of biomarkers in blood and serum samples. Relevant parameters will be assessed, including immune markers for effect, relevant T1D parameters and relevant cytokines.
Following parameters will be assessed for analysis of systemic and local exposure to L. lactis (PK profile): • Presence of live L. lactis clinical strain bacteria in whole blood • Measurable serum levels of hIL-10 and hPINS • Presence of L. lactis clinical strain bacteria in fecal excretion
Safety information collected at all other time points will be assessed as secondary end points.
