Treatment of Type 1 Diabetes With Anti-OX40L Bispecific With Anti-TNF Activity In a Single Nanobody® Molecule
PHASE2ACTIVE_NOT_RECRUITING
This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel group, multicenter, double-blind Phase 2a, 2-arm study. The goal of this Phase 2a study is to assess safety and efficacy of SAR442970 in comparison to placebo to preserve β-cell function in participants with recently diagnosed type 1 diabetes (T1D) on insulin therapy. The study design comprises 2 parts: in Part A adult participants (18 to 35 years of age at screening) and in Part B adolescent and young adult participants (age range 12 to 21 years) will be randomized into SAR442970 and placebo groups.
Approximately 84 participants will be included with randomization ratio 3:1 (active:placebo). The study includes a screening period (3 to 5 weeks), a double-blind treatment period of 52 weeks and a safety follow-up of 26 weeks.
Study details:
The total study duration will be up to 83 weeks including Screening and Safety follow-up period.

- Any IV, intramuscular (IM) or SC administered biologic treatments (mono- or polyclonal antibodies affecting function of immune system), <3 months or <5 half-lives (whichever is longer), prior to randomization.
- Any live (attenuated or viral-vector) vaccine (including but not limited to varicella zoster, oral polio, nasal influenza, rabies) within 3 months prior to randomization or is scheduled in expected period of study (78 weeks after randomization) if this vaccination cannot be safely postponed.
- Any non-live (inactivated, mRNA, recombinant, conjugate, toxoid) vaccine administered less than 14 days prior to randomization.
- Any immunosuppressive therapy within 12 weeks prior to randomization and through 78 weeks after randomization.
- Course of Thymoglobulin®, teplizumab or other immunomodulatory treatments at any time.
- Any drugs that may be used for treatment of T1D and type 2 diabetes other than insulin including but not limited to metformin, glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) agonists, sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 and 1 (SGLT2/1) inhibitor, and verapamil within 2 weeks prior to Screening.
- Abnormal laboratory test(s) at Screening.
- Participants who have impaired renal function with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (using the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease [MDRD] formula) <60 mL/min/1.73 m2, or using the bedside Schwartz equation in the participants under the age of 18 y.o.

There is an adult version (18+) and a pediatric version for children 8-17 years of age. The PAID contains 20 items that describe negative emotions related to diabetes (eg, depression, anger, frustration). Item scores are summed to generate a total score. Scores range from 0 to 100, where higher total scores correspond to higher emotional distress due to diabetes | From Baseline to Week 26 and Week 52 |
| Change from baseline to Week 26 and Week 52 in PAID immediate and theoretical domain scores (caregivers of all participants 12 to 17 y.o.) | Caregiver version of PAID for parents with children 8-18 years of age consists of 18 items that measure caregiver burden. Two scores are calculated: Immediate Burden and Theoretical Burden. Scores range from 0 to 100, where higher scores correspond to greater caregiver burden. | From Baseline to Week 26 and Week 52 |
