Studied in 2 pivotal trials in biologic-naivea patients aged 12+ years of age

  CUPID-A CUPID-C
Trial Overview1,2 Number of patients 136b 148c
Design Randomized, phase 3, double-blind, parallel group, multicenter,
placebo-controlled trials
Duration 24 weeks
Treatment arms DUPIXENT vs placebo
Dosing In the DUPIXENT group:
Adults and adolescents ≥60 kg:
Initial loading dose: 600 mg (2 x 300 mg)
Followed by: 300 mg Q2W (1 x 300 mg)

Adolescents 30 kg to <60 kg:
Initial loading dose: 400 mg (2 x 200 mg)
Followed by: 200 mg Q2W (1 x 200 mg)
Primary endpoint Change from baseline in itch severity score over 7 days (ISS7) at Week 24
Select secondary endpoints Change from baseline in hives severity score over 7 days (HSS7) at Week 24 Change from baseline in urticaria activity score over 7 days (UAS7) at Week 24 Proportion of patients who were urticaria-free (UAS7=0) at Week 24
Proportion of patients with well-controlled disease (UAS7≤6) at Week 24

CSU history
  • Anti-IgE treatment naive
  • Diagnosis of CSU >6 months prior to screening
  • Symptomatic CSU despite treatment with H1 antihistamines (H1 AH)
All patients continued background therapy with long-acting, nonsedating
H1 AH at up to 4x the standard dose

Use of DUPIXENT for the CSU indication in patients aged 2-11 years is supported by evidence from two studies of DUPIXENT in CSU patients 12+ years of age.1​​

aBiologic-naive defined as no anti-IgE treatment.

bStudy population included 132 adults and 4 adolescents (aged 12-17 years).2

cStudy population included 142 adults and 6 adolescents (aged 12-17 years).2

CSU, chronic spontaneous urticaria; Q2W, once every 2 weeks.
