hydroxychloroquine and Dermatomyositis

hydroxychloroquine has been researched along with Dermatomyositis in 54 studies

Hydroxychloroquine: A chemotherapeutic agent that acts against erythrocytic forms of malarial parasites. Hydroxychloroquine appears to concentrate in food vacuoles of affected protozoa. It inhibits plasmodial heme polymerase. (From Gilman et al., Goodman and Gilman's The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics, 9th ed, p970)
hydroxychloroquine : An aminoquinoline that is chloroquine in which one of the N-ethyl groups is hydroxylated at position 2. An antimalarial with properties similar to chloroquine that acts against erythrocytic forms of malarial parasites, it is mainly used as the sulfate salt for the treatment of lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, and light-sensitive skin eruptions.

Dermatomyositis: A subacute or chronic inflammatory disease of muscle and skin, marked by proximal muscle weakness and a characteristic skin rash. The illness occurs with approximately equal frequency in children and adults. The skin lesions usually take the form of a purplish rash (or less often an exfoliative dermatitis) involving the nose, cheeks, forehead, upper trunk, and arms. The disease is associated with a complement mediated intramuscular microangiopathy, leading to loss of capillaries, muscle ischemia, muscle-fiber necrosis, and perifascicular atrophy. The childhood form of this disease tends to evolve into a systemic vasculitis. Dermatomyositis may occur in association with malignant neoplasms. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, pp1405-6)

Trial Overview

TrialPhaseEnrollmentStudy TypeStart DateStatus
A Phase 2, Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled Study to Investigate the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of JBT-101 in Subjects With Dermatomyositis[NCT02466243]Phase 222 participants (Actual)Interventional2015-06-30Terminated (stopped due to Sponsor terminated open-label extension.)
[information is prepared from clinicaltrials.gov, extracted Sep-2024]

Trial Outcomes

Change in Cutaneous Dermatomyositis Disease Area and Severity Index (CDASI) From Baseline in Part A.

The CDASI is a validated outcome measure that systematically quantifies cutaneous DM disease activity, In the CDASI, DM skin disease activity is scored from 0 to 100 based on the physician's evaluation of erythema, scale, and erosion or ulceration at 15 anatomic locations as well as alopecia, Gottron's sign or papules on the hands, and periungual changes. A 5-point or greater decrease in the CDASI activity score indicates clinically relevant improvement based on statistical analysis using a receiver operating characteristic curve to maximize sensitivity and specificity (NCT02466243)
Timeframe: Part A: 84-day treatment period (Change from the Baseline CDSAI score at Day 84)

InterventionCDASI Activity Score (Least Squares Mean)
Lenabasum-8.0
Placebo-5.5

Change in Patient-reported Outcomes From Baseline at 84 Days for Part A

"LS mean (SE) change from baseline to Week 6 (Day 84) for lenabasum vs. placebo using a mixed model repeated measures analysis~The CDASI is a validated outcome measure that systematically quantifies cutaneous DM disease activity and damage, In the CDASI, the Damage Score is scored from 0 to 32 based on the physician's evaluation of poikiloderma and calcinosis. 0 representing no damage and 32 representing the greatest level of damage." (NCT02466243)
Timeframe: Part A: 84-day treatment period

InterventionCDASI Damage Score (Least Squares Mean)
Placebo-5.5
Lenabasum 20 mg BID-8.0
