E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
Primary Efficacy Objective To assess the efficacy of KIg10 administered to patients with PID to demonstrate that the rate of acute serious bacterial infections (i.e., the mean number of acute serious bacterial infections per patient-year) is less than 1.0 to provide substantial evidence of efficacy from day 1 to week 51/52. Safety Objective To assess the safety of KIg10 in the overall study population from day 1 to week 51/52. Pharmacokinetic Objectives To assess the distribution, metabolism, and elimination of KIg10, total IgG, IgG subclasses, and antigen-specific IgGs at steady state in PID patients treated at different dosing schedules. To evaluate trough concentrations of total IgG and compare to trough concentrations prior to the study entry. |
