About this trial

The purpose of the study is to evaluate efficacy of riliprubart compared to placebo in adult participants with CIDP whose disease is refractory to standard of care. The study duration will be for a maximum of 111 weeks including screening, treatment phases, and follow-up.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Participant must have CIDP or possible CIDP criteria, based on European Academy of Neurology (EAN)/ Peripheral Nerve Society (PNS) Task Force CIDP guidelines, second revision (2021).

Participant must have either typical CIDP, or one of the following two CIDP variants: motor CIDP, multifocal CIDP (also known as Lewis Sumner Syndrome). Diagnosis must be confirmed by the adjudication committee.

Participant must be refractory to either immunoglobulin therapy or corticosteroid therapy, as defined below.

Immunoglobulin-refractory subgroup: Historic evidence of failure or inadequate response to immunoglobulin therapy prior to screening

Disqualifiers

Polyneuropathy of other causes, including but not limited to: acute demyelinating polyneuropathies (eg, Guillain-Barré syndrome), hereditary demyelinating neuropathies, neuropathies secondary to infection or systemic disease, diabetic neuropathy, drug- or toxin-induced neuropathies, multifocal motor neuropathy, polyneuropathy related to Immunoglobulin M (IgM) monoclonal gammopathy, POEMS syndrome, and lumbosacral radiculoplexus neuropathy.

Sensory CIDP, Distal CIDP and focal CIDP variants.

Any other neurological or systemic disease that can cause symptoms and signs interfering with treatment or outcome assessments

Poorly controlled diabetes
