CTIS Part I — objectives, methods, condition coding

Main objective

Scope: Therapy, Safety

Determine the effectiveness of per os Nitroxoline treatment on total skin area affected by KWE over a 22 week time period

Secondary objectives 11

  1. Determine the effectiveness of per os nitroxoline treatment on KWE skin area affection after 22 weeks treatment compared to baseline
  2. Determine the temporal effectiveness of per os nitroxoline treatment on KWE skin area affection
  3. Determine the effectiveness of per os nitroxoline treatment on erythema caused by KWE
  4. Determine the effectiveness of per os nitroxoline treatment on skin desquamation caused by KWE
  5. Determine the effect of per os nitroxoline treatment on water intolerability caused by KWE
  6. Determine the effect of per os nitroxoline treatment on hyperhidrosis caused by KWE
  7. Determine the effect of per os nitroxoline treatment on KWE mediated pain
  8. Determine the effect of per os nitroxoline treatment on KWE mediated itch
  9. Determine the effect of per os nitroxoline treatment on the quality of life of patients with KWE
  10. Determine the effect of per os nitroxoline treatment on skin inflammation and structure
  11. Determine the safety of 750 mg oral nitroxoline per day for 26 weeks in patients with KWE

Eligibility criteria

Principal inclusion / exclusion criteria as submitted by sponsor

Inclusion criteria 5

  1. Participant have the diagnosis of KWE (typical clinical features confirmed by genetic testing of the patient or a first degree relative)

  3. Body weight is ≥ 50 kg
  4. Fertile women must use effective contraception during the entire study period as defined in Appendix 4
  5. The participant must be capable of giving signed informed consent as described in Appendix 1 which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the informed consent form (ICF) and in this protocol

Exclusion criteria 11

  1. Known allergy or intolerance to nitroxoline
  2. Hypersensitivity to any ingredients in the placebo capsule
  3. Known allergy or intolerance to any other ingredients in Nitroxolin Forte capsules (see SPC), in particular soy protein or Ponceau 4R (E124)
  4. Chronic renal failure stage 3b-5 (estimated glomerular filtration rate <45 mL/min/1,73m2)
  5. Abnormal liver test values of ALAT, ASAT or γ-GT >3 × above upper limit of normal (ULN), total bilirubin >2 × ULN or spontaneous INR >1.5
  6. Known unstable or progressive liver disease (e.g., liver cirrhosis, fatty liver, active hepatitis)
  7. The participant is pregnant
  8. The participant is breastfeeding
  9. The participant has a thrombocyte level below 100 x 109 per liter
  10. The participant must use other medication(s) incompatible with the simultaneous use of nitroxoline (including warfarin and other vitamin K-antagonists)
  11. Any condition that in the view of the investigator would suggest that the patient is unable to comply with the study protocol and procedures

Endpoints

Primary and secondary outcome measures (English text)

Primary endpoints 1

  1. Relative change from baseline of area (% of cm2) affected by KWE (BSA) during the intervention period compared to that of the placebo period

Secondary endpoints 17

  1. Total area measured during the intervention period compared to that of the placebo period (area under the curve)
  2. Time (weeks) to 25%, 50%, 75%, 90% and 100% improvement of area affected by KWE (BSA)
  3. Change from baseline in erythema intensity (graded 0-4) caused by KWE during the intervention period compared to that of the placebo period
  4. Change from baseline in desquamation grade caused by KWE during the intervention period compared to that of the placebo period
  5. Visual analog scale (VAS) of water intolerability during the intervention period to that of the placebo period
  6. Visual analog scale (VAS) of hyperhidrosis during the intervention period to that of the placebo period
  7. Visual analog scale (VAS) of pain during the intervention period to that of the placebo period
  8. Mean visual analog scale (VAS) of itch during the intervention period to that of the placebo period
  9. Histologic analysis of skin biopsies obtained at baseline, week 26 and week 52
  10. DLQI scoring every visit during the intervention period compared to that of the placebo period (quality of life)
  11. SF-36v2®Health Survey at week 26 and 52 compared to baseline (quality of life)
  12. Chalder Fatigue Scale at week 26 and 52 compared to baseline (quality of life)
  13. Hospital Anxiety & Depression Scale at week 26 and 52 compared to baseline (quality of life)
  14. Adverse events due to study intervention (safety)
  15. Abnormalities in physical examination (safety)
  16. Abnormalities in laboratory investigations (safety)
  17. The compliance of capsule administration will be accounted for. The number of remaining capsules for each participant will be counted at every study control visit.
