Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Number of Participants With Anti-DAC HYP Binding Antibodies (ADAbs): Electrochemiluminescent (ECL) Anti-Drug Antibody (ADA) Assay
Up to 44 weeks

Participants with post-baseline (PB) ADAbs through Week 44, in the treatment period (extends up to 42 days after the last dose during the main study), and in the post-treatment period (43 days after the last dose until the end of the post-treatment period dose).

Number of Participants With Anti-DAC HYP Neutralizing Antibodies (NAbs): ECL ADA Assay
Up to 44 weeks

Participants with PB NAbs through Week 44, in the treatment period (extends up to 42 days after the last dose during the main study), and in the post-treatment period (43 days after the last dose until the end of the post-treatment period dose).

TP-DI Sub-study: Area-Under-the-Curve From Zero to Infinity (AUCinf) of Each Probe Drug
Week 43 (7 days prior to DAC HYP administration) and Week 53 (7 days after DAC HYP administration), pre-cocktail dose and at 0.5 and 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10 , 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours post-probe drug cocktail administration

AUCinf of each of the following cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoenzyme substrates: midazolam (CYP3A), S-warfarin + vitamin K (CYP2C9), and omeprazole (CYP2C19). The AUC from zero to 12 hours (AUC0-12) was calculated for caffeine (CYP1A2).

Treatment Arms

ArmTypeDescription
DAC HYPEXPERIMENTALDAC HYP 150 mg by a subcutaneous (SC) injection using the pre-filled syringe (PFS) every 4 weeks for 24 weeks followed by a 20-week washout period. After completion of the washout period, participants may resume monthly DAC HYP 150 mg using the PFS for up to 3 additional years. Participants in the TP-DI sub-study will receive probe-drug cocktail administration at Weeks 43 and 53. The probe-drug cocktail consists of oral midazolam 5 mg, caffeine 200 mg, S-warfarin 10 mg, vitamin K 10 mg, omeprazole 40 mg, and dextromethorphan 30 mg. The oral vitamin K is used to counteract warfarin's anticoagula nt effect prophylactically.

Frequently asked questions about S-warfarin

What is S-warfarin?

S-warfarin is the more pharmacologically active enantiomer of warfarin, a small-molecule vitamin K antagonist. Biogen Inc. (ticker BIIB) is developing it as an investigational therapy for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis, a neurological condition. It has reached Phase 3 clinical development.

What is S-warfarin used for in relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis?

S-warfarin is being studied as a treatment for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis, a form of MS characterized by episodes of new or worsening neurological symptoms followed by recovery. It is investigational and has not been established as a therapy for this indication outside of clinical research.

What does S-warfarin target?

S-warfarin targets VKORC1, the vitamin K epoxide reductase complex subunit 1. It acts as an inhibitor of this enzyme, which is the target class for the compound. Inhibiting VKORC1 interferes with the vitamin K cycle and the gamma-carboxylation of vitamin K-dependent proteins.

Who is developing S-warfarin?

Biogen Inc., which trades under the ticker BIIB, is the developer of S-warfarin. The company is advancing the small-molecule VKORC1 inhibitor in relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis, where it has reached Phase 3 testing.

What phase is S-warfarin in?

S-warfarin is in Phase 3 development. It is an investigational drug and is not approved for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis. One Phase 3 trial has been completed, and no trials are currently active.

What clinical trials is S-warfarin in?

S-warfarin has been evaluated in the Phase 3 trial NCT01462318, titled an open-label immunogenicity and pharmacokinetics study of daclizumab high yield process prefilled syringe in relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis. That trial enrolled 133 participants across the United States, Czechia, Hungary, and Poland and is completed.
