Lupus Trial Design

4Treatment groups
Active Control
Placebo Group
Group I: KPG-818 low doseActive Control1 Intervention
After providing informed consent, patients will be assessed for study eligibility at the Screening visit. A total of 8 to 12 patients will be randomized to receive this dose level of KPG-818 in a double-blind fashion. Patients will receive treatment for 12 weeks with a 4-week safety follow-up. Capsules of this level of dosage will be taken orally in the morning once a day. All patients will return for follow-up visits after their final dose. The total duration of study participation for each patient (from Screening through Follow-up visit) is anticipated to be approximately 20 weeks.
Group II: KPG-818 mid doseActive Control1 Intervention
After providing informed consent, patients will be assessed for study eligibility at the Screening visit. A total of 8 to 12 patients will be randomized to receive this dose level of KPG-818 in a double-blind fashion. Patients will receive treatment for 12 weeks with a 4-week safety follow-up. Capsules of this level of dosage will be taken orally in the morning once a day. All patients will return for follow-up visits after their final dose. The total duration of study participation for each patient (from Screening through Follow-up visit) is anticipated to be approximately 20 weeks.
Group III: KPG-818 high doseActive Control1 Intervention
After providing informed consent, patients will be assessed for study eligibility at the Screening visit. A total of 8 to 12 patients will be randomized to receive this dose level of KPG-818 in a double-blind fashion. Patients will receive treatment for 12 weeks with a 4-week safety follow-up. Capsules of this level of dosage will be taken orally in the morning once a day. All patients will return for follow-up visits after their final dose. The total duration of study participation for each patient (from Screening through Follow-up visit) is anticipated to be approximately 20 weeks.
Group IV: Placebo armPlacebo Group1 Intervention

Answered by AI

What objectives has this experiment been designed to fulfill?

"This clinical trial will have a primary objective of identifying the peak concentrations at steady state (Css_max) for KPG-818 and its variant, KPG-818H, over an interval lasting 4 weeks in phase Ib and 16 weeks in phase IIa. Secondary endpoints include tracking changes from baseline Physician Global Assessment scores after 12 weeks as well as area under the curve (AUC0-last) values to measure potency and Ctrough levels throughout the dosing period."
