Phase 3: Annualized Rate of All Radiographically-Confirmed Fractures, Excluding Morphometric Vertebral Fractures and Fractures of the Fingers, Toes, Face, and Skull at the Primary Analysis
Up to Month 24
Change From Baseline in Radial Trabecular Volumetric Bone Mineral Density (Tr vBMD) at Month 12
Baseline, Month 12 (end of treatment [EOT])

Assessed by high resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HRpQCT). HRpQCT scans were performed on the participant's distal non-dominant arm. In cases of an arm that had been supported with rods or had significant deformity, the dominant limb was selected. Data presents the ratio of the means between the visit and Baseline from analysis of covariance (ANCOVA).

Change From Baseline in Radial Bone Strength (Failure Load) at Month 12
Baseline, Month 12 (EOT)

Assessed by finite element analysis (FEA) of models generated from HRpQCT images of the distal radius.

Change From Baseline in Radial Bone Strength (Stiffness) at Month 12
Baseline, Month 12 (EOT)

Assessed by FEA of models generated from HRpQCT images of the distal radius.

Change from baseline to month 9 in bone mineral density at the lumbar spine for the individual BPS804 groups and pooled placebo arms.

Safety and tolerability (composite outcome: standard laboratory, (serious) adverse events)
Day 1 through 141

The assessment of safety will be based on primarily on the frequency of adverse events, laboratory abnormalities, and serious adverse events suspected by the investigators to be related to study treatments. The AE collection period extends from the time of first study drug administration drug until study completion. The intensity of each AE will be characterized and classified into 1 of the 3 generic categories (mild, moderate, or severe). The number and percentage of patients with adverse events will be tabulated by treatment group, body system and preferred term. The periods for adverse event tabulation will be from dose administration up to next dose administration if a further dose is given, and from dose administration to EOS for the last dose administration of a patient.

Determination of pharmacodynamic effect by means of biomarkers
Day 1 and Day 43

Biomarker data from serum bone formation biomarkers: procollagen type I N-terminal propeptide, procollagen type I C-terminal propeptide, osteocalcin, and bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, and from serum bone resporption mbiomarkers: C-telopeptides of type I collagen cross-links, and N-telopeptides of type I collagen cross-links will be reported as concentration results, measured using a specific assay with a working range defined by the Lower limit of quantification and Upper limit of quantification. It will be considered a sign for efficacy, if any of the above show significant (2-sided, alpha=0.05) increase versus baseline in the BPS804 group on day 43.

Change in Z-score from baseline to Day 141
Day 1 and Day 141

Bone mineral density will be assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry of the lumbar spine. Analysis will include four vertebral levels from L1 to L4. Individual vertebral levels may be excluded due to artifact. Bone mineral density Z-scores will be used as these are a comparison of a patient's BMD to that of a patient of the same age, sex, and ethnicity. The comparison of change from baseline with the matching change in the reference group will be done by 2-sample t-tests (1-sided). It will be considered a sign for efficacy, if any of the above show significant (2-sided, alpha=0.05) increase versus baseline in the BPS804 group on day 141.

Frequently asked questions about Setrusumab

What is setrusumab used for?

Setrusumab is an investigational monoclonal antibody being developed for osteogenesis imperfecta, a rare genetic bone disorder. It is being studied in pediatric and adult patients, including type I osteogenesis imperfecta. Ultragenyx Pharmaceutical Inc. holds a Breakthrough Therapy designation from the FDA for this program.

What does setrusumab target?

Setrusumab targets SOST, also known as sclerostin. It is an inhibitor of this target, which is a protein that normally suppresses bone formation. By inhibiting sclerostin, setrusumab is designed to increase bone formation and bone mass in patients with osteogenesis imperfecta.

Who makes setrusumab?

Setrusumab is being developed by Ultragenyx Pharmaceutical Inc., which trades on the Nasdaq under the ticker RARE. The company is running the clinical development program for the drug in osteogenesis imperfecta, including Phase 3 studies in pediatric patients.

What phase is setrusumab in?

Setrusumab is in Phase 3 clinical development. It is an investigational therapy and has not been approved by the FDA. The program includes Phase 3 trials in pediatric patients with osteogenesis imperfecta, along with earlier Phase 2 studies in pediatric and adult patients.

What clinical trials is setrusumab in?

Setrusumab is being studied in several trials, including NCT06636071 in pediatric Japanese subjects, NCT05768854 comparing setrusumab with bisphosphonates in pediatric patients, and NCT05125809 comparing setrusumab with placebo. A completed Phase 2 study, NCT03118570, evaluated the drug in adults with type I, III, or IV osteogenesis imperfecta.

Is setrusumab the same as BPS804?

Yes, setrusumab was previously known as BPS804. The completed Phase 2 study NCT03118570 in adults with type I, III, or IV osteogenesis imperfecta was conducted under the BPS804 name. Both names refer to the same monoclonal antibody targeting SOST.
