About this trial

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of 15-week treatment with ALXN2420 versus placebo for decreasing insulin-like growth factor IGF-1 levels, when administered in combination with somatostatin analog (SSA) therapy to adult participants with acromegaly.

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Documented diagnosis of acromegaly, that is, historically documented evidence of a GH-secreting pituitary adenoma based on MRI or pathology report

Received for ≥ 6 months prior to screening

Receiving a once-monthly regimen (approximately every 4 weeks). Note: participants on stable regimens of other durations (for example, every 3 or 6 weeks) are not eligible

Must be a partial responder to SSAs defined as > 20% relative IGF 1 reduction during the course of SSA therapy

Disqualifiers

Had surgery for pituitary adenoma within the last 6 months before Day 1 or planning to receive surgery for pituitary adenoma during the study

Pituitary adenoma that, per Investigator's judgment, is worsening as assessed by pituitary/sellar MRI or computed tomography scan obtained ≤ 6 months prior to screening

Pituitary adenoma causing compression of the chiasm

Clinical evidence of symptomatic hyperprolactinemia that would necessitate treatment with dopamine agonists
