Brief Summary:

Please note that Phase 1/2 (HV & MAD) cohort - recruitment is completed and Phase 3 Component (THRIVE) - is actively recruiting.

The investigational drug, VRDN-001, is a monoclonal antibody that inhibits the activity of a cell surface receptor called insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R). Inhibition of IGF-1R may help to reduce the inflammation and associated tissue swelling that occurs in patients with thyroid eye disease (TED). This clinical trial will evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (the concentration of drug in the blood over time) of VRDN-001 in healthy volunteers and in patients with TED. Study participants with TED will also be evaluated over time for changes in their signs and symptoms of TED compared to their baseline measurements.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Phase 1/2 MAD (HV and TED)
Healthy participants and participants with TED will be randomized to receive two intravenous infusions of VRDN-001 or placebo with an interval of 3 weeks.
Drug: VRDN-001 Phase 1/2 MAD (HV and TED)
2 Infusions of multiple ascending doses of VRDN-001, ranging from 3 mg/kg to 20 mg/kg

Experimental: Phase 3 Cohort (THRIVE)
Participants with TED will be randomized to either VRDN-001 10mg/kg or placebo.
Drug: VRDN-001 Phase 3 Cohort (THRIVE)
5 Infusions of VRDN-001 10mg/kg

Drug: VRDN-001 Placebo
5 Infusions of VRDN-001 placebo




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Number of participants with treatment-emergent adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v5.0 [ Time Frame: Up to Day 50 for MAD healthy volunteers, up to Day 169 for MAD TED subjects, and up to Week 52 for the Phase 3 study subjects ]
  2. Proptosis responder rate [ Time Frame: Week 6 for MAD TED participants, and Week 15 for Phase 3 study subjects ]
    Proportion of TED participants with a reduction of proptosis of ≥ 2 mm from baseline as determined by exophthalmometer


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change from baseline in measurement of proptosis as determined by exophthalmometer [ Time Frame: Up to Week 12 for MAD TED subjects, and up to Week 52 for Phase 3 subjects ]
  2. Change from baseline in volume of orbital fat as determined by MRI [ Time Frame: Up to Week 12 for MAD TED participants, and up to Week 52 for Phase 3 subjects ]
  3. Change from baseline in volume of extraocular muscles as determined by MRI [ Time Frame: Up to Week 12 for MAD TED participants, and up to Week 52 for Phase 3 subjects ]
  4. Change from baseline in facial fat volume as determined by MRI [ Time Frame: Up to Week 12 for MAD TED participants, and up to Week 52 for Phase 3 subjects ]
  5. Change from baseline in Clinical Activity Score (CAS) [ Time Frame: Up to Week 12 for MAD TED participants, and up to Week 52 for Phase 3 subjects ]
    Each of 7 clinical signs and symptoms of ocular inflammation is scored as present or absent (score of 1 or 0, respectively). The CAS is the sum of the individual scores (range from 0 to 7) where a higher score indicates a greater level of inflammation.

  6. Change from baseline in Subjective Diplopia Score [ Time Frame: Up to Week 12 for MAD TED participants, and up to Week 52 for Phase 3 subjects ]
    Diplopia grade is assessed using the Gorman Subjective Diplopia Score (range from 0 to 3) based on verbal responses by the study subject. A higher score indicates a worse diplopia grade.

  7. Change from baseline in Graves Orbitopathy-Quality of Life (GO-QoL) combined score [ Time Frame: Up to Week 12 for MAD TED participants, and up to Week 52 for Phase 3 subjects ]
  8. Change in measurement of proptosis by MRI/CT [ Time Frame: Up to Week 12 for MAD TED participants, and up to Week 52 for Phase 3 subjects ]

Other Outcome Measures:
  1. VRDN-001 concentrations in the blood over time [ Time Frame: Up to Day 155 for MAD participants and up to Week 22 for Phase 3 subjects ]
  2. Incidence of anti-drug antibody (ADA) development in VRDN-001-treated subjects over time [ Time Frame: Up to Day 155 for MAD participants and up to Week 22 for Phase 3 subjects ]
