AB0458 A PHASE II RANDOMISED, DOUBLE-BLIND, PLACEBO-CONTROLLED, PROOF OF CONCEPT STUDY OF ORAL SELETALISIB IN PATIENTS WITH PRIMARY SJÖGREN’S SYNDROME (PSS)

Background: Seletalisib is a potent, selective oral inhibitor of phosphoinositide-3 kinase delta (PI3Kδ). Preclinical data have shown that the PI3Kδ pathway is upregulated within salivary glands of patients with PSS and contributes to disease pathogenesis.1 Objectives: To assess the efficacy and safety of seletalisib in patients with PSS. Methods: In this Phase II, double-blind, proof of concept study (NCT02610543), patients with PSS having an EULAR Sjogren’s Syndrome Disease Activity Index (ESSDAI) score ≥5 were randomised 1:1 to seletalisib once daily or placebo (PBO) in addition to current PSS therapy for 12 weeks. The primary endpoint was change from baseline in ESSDAI at Week 12. The s…
