Two-period Crossover Study to Demonstrate the Comparability of Pharmacokinetics of Subcutaneous Ianalumab Between 2mL Auto-injector/2mL PFS with1mL Pre-filled Syringe in Adult Participants With Autoimmune Disease

140 patients around the world
Available in Argentina, United States
The study consists of the following periods: Screening period (up to 4 weeks): Following the signing of the informed consent, participants will be assessed for eligibility during this period of up to 4 weeks. Treatment Period 1 + Treatment Period 2, (Week 0 to Week 24): After completion of the screening period, eligible participants will be randomized at the Baseline visit (Week 0) to one of the 2 treatment sequences (treatment switch at Week 12) in a ratio of 1:1 described below: - Cohort 1: - Sequence 1: ianalumab 300 mg s.c. (2 x 1 mL PFS) monthly + SoC in Treatment Period 1 and ianalumab 300 mg s.c. (1 x 2 mL AI) monthly + SoC in Treatment Period 2 - Sequence 2: ianalumab 300 mg s.c. (1 x 2 mL AI) monthly + SoC in Treatment Period 1 and ianalumab 300 mg s.c. (2 x 1 mL PFS) monthly + SoC in Treatment Period 2 - Cohort 2: - Sequence 1: ianalumab 300 mg s.c. (2 x 1 mL PFS) monthly + SoC in Treatment Period 1 and ianalumab 300 mg s.c. (1 x 2 mL PFS) monthly + SoC in Treatment Period 2 - Sequence 2: ianalumab 300 mg s.c. (1 x 2 mL PFS) monthly + SoC in Treatment Period 1 and ianalumab 300 mg s.c. (2 x 1 mL PFS) monthly + SoC in Treatment Period 2 In addition, within each sequence, participants will be further randomized to one of the predetermined injection sites with equal allocation, resulting in a total randomization combination of four (2 sequences x 2 injection sites) for Cohort 1 and six (2 sequences x 3 injection sites) for Cohort 2, respectively. Extended Treatment period (Week 24 to Week 72): After completion of Week 24 assessment, all participants (who did not discontinue during treatment period) will have the option to enter the extended treatment period to receive ianalumab 300 mg s.c. (Cohort 1: 2 mL AI; Cohort 2: 2 x 1 mL PFS) monthly up to Week 68. The end of treatment (EOT) visit will be performed 4 weeks after the last study treatment administration, i.e., at Week 72. Mandatory Post-Treatment safety follow-up period (from Week 72 to Week 88): Participants who completed the last study treatment or prematurely discontinued from study treatment will enter the post-treatment safety follow-up period. Conditional Post-Treatment safety follow-up period (from Week 88 to Week 176) Post-treatment follow-up will be performed until B-cell recovery or up to 2 years. B-cell recovery is defined when CD19+ B-cell counts return to >= 50 cells/μL or >= 80% of baseline value, whichever occurs earlier.
