Pharmacokinetics Study of Mycophenolic Acid in Patients With an Autoimmune Bullous Dermatose, Pemphigus or Cicatricial Pemphigoid. (PEMPA)

NCT02993133 Phase 3 COMPLETED

The main autoimmune bullous dermatoses are pemphigus and cicatricial pemphigoid. Pemphigus is an autoimmune dermatological disease characterized by the production of anti-desmoclesin antibodies 1 and 3, affecting the skin and mucous membranes.The cicatricial pemphigoid is an autoimmune dermatological disease, characterized by the production of anti-zone antibodies of the basal membrane and characterized by a predominant mucosal involvement. Mycophenolic acid (MPA) is an increasingly used form of corticosteroid. Despite its increasing use, pharmacokinetics in autoimmune bullous dermatosis remain little studied.

Conditions

• Autoimmune Bullous Dermatose

Interventions

• Cellcept® in autoimmune bullous dermatoses

Primary outcomes

• Evaluation of the Bayesian estimator performance — 8 hours
  The evaluation of the Bayesian estimator performance will be based on its capacity to predict MPA AUC (Area Under the Curve), expressed as the bias (%) and the precision (root mean square error; RMSE) between the predicted AUC calculated using a limited number of samples performed in the first 4 hours post dosing and the observed AUC estimated using the reference method (trapezoidal rule method). A Bland Altman curve will be constructed.
