A plain-language read of the study's public EU CTIS listing. The study team confirms the details.

Who can take part

You may be able to join if

1. Males and females at least 18 years of age at the time of signing the ICF.
2. Diagnosed with CIDP or Possible CIDP according to criteria of the EAN/PNS 2021.
3. Must have an adjusted INCAT score as follows: a. Treatment-naïve participants: ≥2 at screening b. Treatment-experienced participants: 2-7 at screening Note: A score of 2 should be exclusively from leg disability component of adjusted INCAT. For participants with an adjusted INCAT score of ≥3 (and up to 7 for treatment-experienced; no upper limit for treatment-naïve) at study entry, there are no specific requirements for arm or leg scores.
4. Treatment-experienced participants: Participants who were treated with IVIg/SCIg at the time of screening must have documented evidence within 24 months of screening of: a. Clinically meaningful deterioration on treatment interruption or dose reduction of standard of care (SOC) therapy, determined by clinical examination documented in the medical records. Clinically meaningful deterioration is defined as one of the following: ≥1-point increase in adjusted INCAT score, decrease in I-RODS total score ≥4 points, decrease in MRC Sum score ≥3, grip strength worsening of ≥8 kPa (in either hand), or an equivalent deterioration based on information from medical records and at the Investigator’s judgement. OR b. Improvement in CIDP symptoms with SOC therapy based on information in medical records and at the Investigator’s judgement. In assessing the history of response to IVIg/SCIg, the Investigator should account for prior treatment (type, dose regimen, duration), pattern of response or non-response to treatment.
5. Treatments: a. Treatment-naïve participants: No prior treatment or off-treatment for CIDP (no treatment for at least 6 months prior to screening) with IVIg and/or SCIg and/or corticosteroids and/or efgartigimod and/or investigational therapies for CIDP Off-treatment participants must have demonstrated prior response to therapy as described in Inclusion Criterion 4a. OR b. Treatment-experienced participants: On stable dose of IVIg or SCIg with no disease exacerbations for 8 weeks prior to screening. Participants on IVIg must be on maintenance dose of 0.4 to 1 g/kg every 2 to 6 weeks (or equivalent) per EAN/PNS recommendation. Participants on SCIg should not exceed the dose of 0.4 g/kg per week. Participants must be willing to discontinue IVIg or SCIg at least 3 weeks (±1 week) prior to dosing with the study drug.
6. Female participants of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test at Screening and a negative urine pregnancy test on Day 1.

You likely can't join if

1. Pure sensory or distal CIDP variants (EAN/PNS definition).
5. Any other disease that could better explain the participant's signs and symptoms.
6. Any history of myelopathy or evidence of central demyelination.
11. Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) ≥7.5%
7. Any other known autoimmune disease that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would interfere with an accurate assessment of clinical symptoms of CIDP.
8. Severe psychiatric disorder (such as severe depression, psychosis, bipolar disorder) that in the opinion of the Investigator could create undue risk to the participant or could affect adherence with the study protocol.

Exceptions are made for surgically sterile participants, or post-menopausal females (defined as 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea or 6 months of spontaneous amenorrhea with serum follicle stimulating hormone levels >40 mIU/mL or 6 weeks postsurgical bilateral oophorectomy with or without hysterectomy). Abstinence is acceptable if this is the usual lifestyle and preferred contraception for the participant.
