C4531015 is a multicenter, open-label extension study designed to evaluate the longer-term safety and tolerability of tilrekimig in eligible participants with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) who have participated in and completed the applicable requirements of the parent study, C4531031.
Participants who complete the protocol-defined parent-study period may be considered for enrollment in C4531015. Before entering the extension study, participants must provide informed consent, satisfy all C4531015 eligibility criteria, and be considered appropriate for continued study treatment by the investigator. Participation in C4531031 does not automatically establish eligibility for the extension study.
All enrolled participants will receive open-label tilrekimig according to the dose, route of administration, and treatment schedule specified in the C4531015 protocol. Participants may continue protocol-permitted background COPD maintenance therapy. Use of concomitant and rescue medications will be managed according to the protocol.
The study will primarily characterize the safety and tolerability of longer-term exposure to tilrekimig. Safety monitoring will include the collection of adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), adverse events leading to treatment interruption or discontinuation, and other protocol-defined safety events. Participants will also undergo clinical laboratory testing, vital-sign assessments, physical examinations, and other safety evaluations at scheduled study visits.
Additional protocol-defined assessments may be conducted to characterize COPD-related clinical outcomes and the effects of continued treatment. These may include evaluation of COPD exacerbations, respiratory symptoms, lung function, health status, participant-reported outcomes (PROs), healthcare resource utilization, pharmacokinetics (PK), immunogenicity, biomarkers, or other exploratory measures, as applicable. These assessments are intended to provide supportive information and should not be interpreted as demonstrating that tilrekimig is safe or effective.
Participants will attend study visits according to the protocol Schedule of Activities (SoA). At these visits, investigators will assess continued eligibility, treatment adherence, changes in health status, AEs, concomitant medications, COPD-related events, and the results of required clinical and laboratory evaluations.
Participants may discontinue study intervention because of an AE, pregnancy, use of prohibited medication, lack of compliance with protocol requirements, an investigator or sponsor decision, withdrawal of consent, or another protocol-defined reason. Participants who discontinue study intervention may be asked to complete applicable early-discontinuation and safety follow-up assessments.
The study may provide eligible participants transitioning from C4531031 with continued access to investigational treatment while allowing additional safety and clinical information to be collected over a longer treatment period. Tilrekimig remains investigational, and participation in the study does not guarantee that an individual participant will experience clinical benefit.
