Male or female aged 12 and 80 years at the time of signing ICF
Confirmed diagnosis of EoE and esophageal intraepithelial eosinophilic infiltration of 15 eosinophils/hpf in 1 hpf from a biopsy collected during the Screening EGD without any other cause for the esophageal eosinophilia
History (by patient report) of an average of 2 episodes of dysphagia with intake of solid foods per week during the 4 weeks prior to Screening
Subjects must have failed or not be adequately controlled on standard of care treatments for EoE symptoms, which could include PPI, systemic or topical corticosteroids, and/or diet, among others
If on an allowed treatment for EoE, stable dose for at least 4 weeks prior to Screening and willingness to continue that dose for the study duration
If patient is on pre-existing dietary restrictions, willingness to maintain dietary restrictions throughout the study, as much as possible
Able and willing to comply with all study procedures
Female subjects must be either post-menopausal for at least 1 year with FSH level >30 mIU/mL at Screening or surgically sterile (tubal ligation,hysterectomy, or bilateral oophorectomy) for at least 3 months, or if of childbearing potential, have a negative pregnancy test and agree to use dual methods of contraception, or abstain from sexual activity from screening until the end of the study, or for 120 days following the last dose of study drug, whichever is longer. Male subjects with female partners of childbearing potential must agree to use a highly effective method of contraception from Screening until the end of the study or for 120 days following the last dose of study drug,whichever is longer. All fertile men with female partners of childbearing potential should be instructed to contact the Investigator immediately if they suspect their partner might be pregnant at any time during study participation
Concomitant EG, EoD, or eosinophilic colitis (EC)
EG and/or EoD (30 eosinophils/hpf in 5 hpf in the stomach and/or 30 eosinophils/hpf in 3 hpf in the duodenum) as determined by central histology assessment of biopsies collected during the Screening EGD
Causes of esophageal eosinophilia other than EoE or one the following: hypereosinophilic syndrome, eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis, or peripheral blood absolute eosinophil count of >1500 eosinophils/L
History of inflammatory bowel disease, celiac disease, achalasia, and/or esophageal surgery
Any esophageal stricture unable to be passed with a standard diagnostic 9 mm to 10 mm upper endoscope or any critical esophageal stricture that requires dilation during screening
History of bleeding disorders or esophageal varices
History of malignancy; except carcinoma in situ, early stage prostate cancer, or non-melanoma skin cancers. However, cancers that have been in remission for more than 5 years and are considered cured, can be enrolled (with the exception of breast cancer). All history of malignancy (including diagnosis, dates, and compliance with cancer screening recommendations) must be documented and certified by the Investigator, along with the statement that in their clinical judgment the tissue eosinophilia is attributable to EGID, rather than recurrence of malignancy
Active Helicobacter pylori infection (as determined by central histology staining of the biopsy collected during the Screening EGD), unless treated and confirmed to be negative prior to randomization and symptoms remain consistent
Positive Ova and Parasite (O&P) test at Screening, seropositive for Strongyloides stercoralis at Screening, and/or treatment for a clinically significant helminthic parasitic infection within 6 months of Screening
Seropositive for HIV or hepatitis at Screening, except for vaccinated patients or patients with a history of hepatitis that has since resolved
Prior exposure to AK002 or hypersensitivity to any constituent of AK002
Change in dose of inhaled corticosteroids, nasal corticosteroids, PPI, and/or diet therapy within 4 weeks prior to Screening
Use of oral corticosteroids (swallowed topical or systemic corticosteroids) within 8 weeks prior to Screening
Use of any biologics or medications that may interfere with the study, such as immunosuppressive or immunomodulatory drugs including azathioprine, JAK inhibitors, 6-mercaptopurine, methotrexate, cyclosporine, tacrolimus, anti-TNF, anti-IL-4 receptor, e.g., dupilumab), anti-IL-5 (e.g., mepolizumab), anti-IL-5 receptor (e.g., benralizumab), anti-IL-13 (e.g., lebrikizumab), anti-IgE (e.g., omalizumab), within 12 weeks prior to Screening
Yes for Use of any biologics or medications that may interfere with the study, such as immunosuppressive or immunomodulatory drugs including azathioprine, JAK inhibitors, 6-mercaptopurine, methotrexate, cyclosporine, tacrolimus, anti-TNF, anti-IL-4 receptor, e.g., dupilumab), anti-IL-5 (e.g., mepolizumab), anti-IL-5 receptor (e.g., benralizumab), anti-IL-13 (e.g., lebrikizumab), anti-IgE (e.g., omalizumab), within 12 weeks prior to Screening exclusion criteria 14
No for Use of any biologics or medications that may interfere with the study, such as immunosuppressive or immunomodulatory drugs including azathioprine, JAK inhibitors, 6-mercaptopurine, methotrexate, cyclosporine, tacrolimus, anti-TNF, anti-IL-4 receptor, e.g., dupilumab), anti-IL-5 (e.g., mepolizumab), anti-IL-5 receptor (e.g., benralizumab), anti-IL-13 (e.g., lebrikizumab), anti-IgE (e.g., omalizumab), within 12 weeks prior to Screening exclusion criteria 14
Not sure for Use of any biologics or medications that may interfere with the study, such as immunosuppressive or immunomodulatory drugs including azathioprine, JAK inhibitors, 6-mercaptopurine, methotrexate, cyclosporine, tacrolimus, anti-TNF, anti-IL-4 receptor, e.g., dupilumab), anti-IL-5 (e.g., mepolizumab), anti-IL-5 receptor (e.g., benralizumab), anti-IL-13 (e.g., lebrikizumab), anti-IgE (e.g., omalizumab), within 12 weeks prior to Screening exclusion criteria 14
Participation in a concurrent interventional study with the last intervention occurring within 30 days prior to administration of study drug or 90 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, for biologic products
Vaccination with live attenuated vaccines 30 days prior to initiation of treatment in the study, during the treatment period, or vaccination expected 5 half-lives (4 months) following study drug administration
Treatment with chemotherapy or radiotherapy in the preceding 6 months
Presence of abnormal laboratory values considered by the Investigator to be clinically significant
Any disease, condition (medical or surgical), or cardiac abnormality, which in the opinion of the Investigator, would place the subject at increased risk
