OVERALL RATIONALE FOR THE AMENDMENT  
To change the study primary efficacy analysis population from an overall uncontrolled persistent 
asthma population to the subpopulation with evidence of either asthma with an eosinophilic 
phenotype or, more broadly, asthma with type 2 inflammatory phenotype. This is to be consistent 
with the observed efficacy seen in the pivotal Study EFC13579 (QUEST) as well as approved 
label indications for adults and adolescents with asthma.

The population of interest is asthma patients with either “asthma 
with an eosinophilic phenotype” or “asthma with type 2 
inflammatory phenotype” based on the observed efficacy from 
the QUEST study and on the approved indications in different 
regions. With regard to these populations, the sponsor has 
designated a primary analysis population and additional 
secondary analysis populations based on these two populations 
of interest. The sponsor has updated the sample size needed to 
demonstrate efficacy based on these definitions for the primary 
analysis populations.  
The sample size calculation assumes a linear discontinuation 
rate (20% at 1 year), thus the average exposure duration for 
patients is 0.9 year.

TITLE 
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study to 
evaluate the efficacy and safety of dupilumab in children 6 to <12 years of 
age with uncontrolled persistent asthma. 
INVESTIGATOR/TRIAL LOCATION 
Worldwide 
PHASE OF DEVELOPMENT 
3 
STUDY OBJECTIVES 
 
Primary objective: 
 
The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of dupilumab in 
children 6 to <12 years of age with uncontrolled persistent asthma 
Secondary objectives: 
 
To assess the safety and tolerability of dupilumab 
 
To evaluate the effect of dupilumab in improving patient reported 
outcomes (PROs) including health related quality of life (HRQoL) 
 
To assess the dupilumab systemic exposure and incidence of 
anti-drug antibodies (ADA).  
 
To evaluate the association between dupilumab treatment and 
pediatric immune responses to vaccines: any vaccination for 
tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis and/or seasonal trivalent/quadrivalent 
influenza vaccine   
Exploratory objectives: 
 
To explore baseline and on-treatment levels of biomarkers for their 
potential to predict and to associate with a treatment response 
 
 
 
 
To evaluate the proportion of patients requiring increased dose of 
inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) or step up in the second controller 
medication regimen.  
 
To evaluate the effect of dupilumab on additional PROs 
STUDY DESIGN 
General Design 
Multinational, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 
parallel-group study assessing the effect of dupilumab administered 
subcutaneously (SC) for a maximum of 52 weeks in children 6 to <12 years of 
age with uncontrolled asthma. 
Periods 
The clinical trial consists of three periods: 
 
Screening Period (4 [±1] weeks) to determine a patient’s eligibility 
status and establish level of asthma control before randomization 
 
Treatment Period 52 weeks to treat with dupilumab or placebo SC 
injection 
 
Post-treatment Period 12 weeks to monitor a patient’s status when 
off study drug treatment for patients who choose not to participate in 
the 1-year long-term extension study

Screening Period 
Prior to and during the Screening Period, patients must be on one of the 
following: stable-dose background therapy of medium-dose ICS with second 
controller medication (ie, long-acting β2 agonist [LABA], leukotriene receptor 
antagonist [LTRA], long-acting muscarinic antagonist [LAMA], or 
methylxanthines) or high-dose ICS alone or high-dose ICS with second 
controller, for at least 3 months with a stable dose ≥1 month prior to 
Screening Visit 1.  
The Screening Period will be of 4 (±1) weeks in duration. 
Randomized Treatment Period 
Patients are randomized to either dupilumab or matching placebo 
administered SC for a maximum treatment duration of 52 weeks.  
During the Randomized Treatment Period, patients continue the stable 
dose(s) of controller medication used during the Screening Period. For 
patients experiencing a deterioration of asthma during the study, the ICS dose 
may temporarily be increased up to 4-fold (recorded as a loss of asthma 
control [LOAC] event) for a maximum of 10 days, as indicated and upon 
recommendation of the physician and/or Investigator. Treatment may then be 
changed to systemic corticosteroids (severe exacerbation event) or revert 
back to the original ICS dose depending on asthma symptom progression.  
Patients may be placed on systemic corticosteroids at any time as clinically 
indicated based on the presence of symptoms consistent with a severe 
asthma exacerbation event, as per the Investigator’s judgment. 
If a patient experiences 2 or more severe asthma exacerbation events 
anytime during the study, a permanent change (ie, step up in medium- to 
high-dose ICS or addition of second controller for patients on high-dose ICS 
monotherapy) on their stable-dose background controller medication may 
occur, as indicated and upon recommendation of the physician and/or 
Investigator. 
Patients who permanently discontinue the study medication will be asked and 
encouraged to return to the clinic for study visits and participate in 
assessments according to the visit schedule until the end of the study (EOS) 
with a ±5 day window or up to recovery or stabilization of any adverse event 
(AE). At the time of permanent treatment discontinuation, patients will perform 
the early treatment discontinuation (ETD) visit with all the assessments 
defined for the end-of-treatment (EOT) Visit 28. Patients who permanently 
discontinue early from treatment will not be eligible for the 1-year long-term 
extension study. 
For patients who permanently discontinue the study, under exceptional 
circumstances where there is no possibility for a patient and 
parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) to come to the site for the scheduled 
follow-up visit, a phone contact may be made after Sponsor’s approval is 
given. During that phone contact, at least information about AEs, concomitant 
medication and asthma exacerbation events must be collected, and the 
schedule for these calls should still reflect the visit schedule.  
Patients who discontinue early from treatment may be asked to return to the 
clinic to have additional ADA samples collected for analysis based on the 
overall assessment of antibody titers and clinical presentation at the time of 
discontinuation.

Post-treatment Period 
After completing the treatment period, patients are evaluated for 12 weeks 
(± 5 days) in the post-treatment period. During this follow-up period, patients 
continue treatment with their stable dose of controller medication or it can be 
modified based on their level of asthma control, as determined by the 
Investigator. 
Eligible patients who complete the Randomized Treatment Period will be 
offered the opportunity to participate in the 1-year long-term extension study 
with dupilumab. Patients subsequently enrolled in the 1-year long-term 
extension study will not participate in the post-treatment period of this trial.

STATISTICAL CONSIDERATIONS 
 
Sample size determination: 
The sample size of this study was based on a comparison between 
dupilumab versus placebo with regard to the primary endpoint of annualized 
rate of severe exacerbations over 52 weeks of treatment for the 3 populations 
of interest: patients with baseline blood eosinophils ≥300 cells/µL, patients 
with baseline blood eosinophils ≥150 cells/µL, and patients with type 2 
inflammatory phenotype (baseline blood eosinophils ≥150 cells/μL or baseline 
FeNO ≥20 ppb), with assuming the number of severe exacerbations follows a 
negative binomial distribution and a randomization ratio of 2:1.

Page 15 
The sample size calculation assumes a linear discontinuation rate (20% at 
1 year), thus the average exposure duration for patients is 0.9 year. The 
assumed relative risk reductions are based on the results in the phase 3 
asthma EFC13579 QUEST study. 
To achieve target sample size for each of the populations stated above, 
approximately 402 patients in the overall population (268 for dupilumab and 
134 for placebo) need to be randomized assuming approximately 86% of the 
randomized patients with type 2 inflammatory phenotype (baseline blood 
eosinophils ≥150 cells/μL or baseline FeNO ≥20 ppb), assuming 
approximately 81% of the randomized patients have baseline blood 
eosinophils ≥150 cells/μL, and approximately 64% of the randomized patients 
have baseline blood eosinophils ≥300 cells/μL. 
Patients will be randomized (2:1 ratio) to receive dupilumab or matching 
placebo. After a patient is randomly assigned to dupilumab or matching 
placebo, the dosage of dupilumab or matching placebo for the patient, 200 or 
100 mg SC once q2w, will be determined based on body weight >30 kg or 
≤30 kg, respectively. 
Randomization will be stratified by ICS dose (medium-dose versus high-dose) 
and eosinophil count (<300 cells/μL versus ≥300 cells/μL) at Screening, and 
by region.  
Analysis populations: 
In order to confirm the efficacy of dupilumab with appropriate multiplicity 
control, there will be two primary analysis populations to evaluate the efficacy 
endpoints: 
1) Population with type 2 inflammatory phenotype will be defined as 
randomized patients with baseline blood eosinophils ≥150 cells/μL 
or baseline FeNO ≥20 ppb (1). This multiplicity control will be 
applied to the analysis in countries that use the same or similar 
indication as approved in the EU.  
2) Population with baseline blood eosinophil ≥300 cells/µL, which is 
defined as the randomized patients with baseline blood eosinophil 
≥300 cells/µL, will be the primary analysis population that the

sponsor uses for US and US reference countries, similar to the 
approach taken for evaluating these patients in the QUEST study. 
In addition, patients with baseline blood eosinophils ≥150 cells/µL 
will be tested in the hierarchy. This multiplicity will be used in 
countries with the same or similar indication wordings as approved 
in the US.  
The efficacy analyses will be conducted according to the treatment to which 
they are randomized. 
The analysis population for the safety endpoints will be the safety population, 
defined as all patients exposed to study medication, regardless of the amount 
of treatment administered and regardless of whether they are randomized. 
The safety analyses will be conducted according to the treatment patients 
actually received.  
Analysis of the primary endpoint 
The estimand of the dupilumab treatment effect compares the annualized rate 
of severe exacerbation for the patients randomized to the dupilumab and 
placebo arms, regardless of what treatment patients actually received. It 
assesses the benefits of the treatment policy or strategy relative to placebo. In 
this primary approach, off-treatment measurements of patients who 
prematurely discontinue treatment will be included for the analysis. Patients 
who permanently discontinue the study medication will be asked and 
encouraged to return to the clinic for all remaining study visits. If a patient 
stays in study till the end of 52-week treatment period, all severe exacerbation 
events that happen up to Week 52 will be included in the primary analysis, 
regardless if the patient is on-treatment or not. If a patient withdraws from 
study prior to the end of 52-week treatment period, all observed severe 
exacerbation events up to the last contact date will be included in the 
analysis, and the observation duration is defined as from randomization to the 
last contact date. No imputation will be performed for the unobserved events 
that may happen after study discontinuation and up to Week 52.  
The annualized rate of severe asthma exacerbation events will be analyzed 
using a negative binomial regression model. The analysis of the primary 
endpoint will be conducted in the type 2 inflammatory phenotype, baseline 
blood eosinophils ≥300 cells/μL, baseline blood eosinophils ≥150 cells/μL, 
baseline FeNO ≥20 ppb and full intent-to-treat (ITT) populations using 
appropriate multiplicity control. When performing the primary endpoint 
analysis in the type 2 inflammatory phenotype, baseline blood eosinophils 
≥150 cells/μL or the full ITT populations, the model will include the total 
number of events of each patient occurring during the 52 weeks as the 
response variable, with the treatment group, age, weight (≤30kg, >30kg), 
region, baseline eosinophil level (<300 cells/μL, ≥300 cells/μL), baseline 
FeNO level (<20 ppb, ≥20 ppb), baseline ICS dose level (medium/high) and 
number of severe asthma exacerbation events prior to the study as 
covariates. When performing the primary endpoint analysis in the baseline 
blood eosinophils ≥300 cells/μL population, the baseline eosinophil level will 
be removed from the model covariates. When performing the primary 
endpoint analysis in the baseline FeNO ≥20 ppb population, the baseline 
FeNO level will be removed from the model covariates. Severe asthma 
exacerbation event prior to the study is defined as treatment with a systemic 
steroid (oral or parenteral) for worsening asthma at least once or 
hospitalization or emergency medical care visit for worsening asthma (as 
defined in this protocol). Log transformed observation duration will be the 
offset variable.

A supportive analysis to assess the treatment effect of dupilumab if patients 
adhere to the treatment and background asthma medication as directed is 
also provided. In this approach, the severe exacerbation events reported after 
the premature treatment discontinuation will be excluded from the analysis. 
Any measurement obtained after the first permanent step up of background 
asthma medication will also be excluded from the analysis. The supportive 
analysis will be performed in the type 2 inflammatory phenotype and baseline 
blood eosinophils ≥300 cells/μL populations and will use a negative binomial 
model with the same set of covariates as specified for the primary analysis in 
the two populations. This model will include severe exacerbation events 
occurring during the treatment epoch before any permanent stepping-up of 
background asthma medication as the response variable and the log 
transformed duration of the treatment or from randomization to first 
permanent stepping-up of background asthma medication whichever is 
shorter will be the offset variable. 
The analysis of the primary endpoint will be conducted in the type 2 
inflammatory phenotype, baseline blood eosinophils ≥300 cells/μL, baseline 
blood eosinophils ≥150 cells/μL, baseline FeNO ≥20 ppb, and full ITT 
populations using appropriate multiplicity control. 
Multiplicity considerations  
The hypothesis testing on the primary endpoint of annualized severe 
exacerbation rate will be controlled with a two-sided type I error of 0.05 by 
incorporating a sequential testing procedure as below: 
For US and US reference countries: 
1st: Annualized rate of severe exacerbation events during the 52-week 
placebo-controlled treatment period based on the patients with baseline blood 
eosinophils ≥300 cells/µL. 
2nd: Annualized rate of severe exacerbation events during the 52-week 
placebo-controlled treatment period based on the patients with baseline blood 
eosinophils ≥150 cells/µL. 
3rd: Annualized rate of severe exacerbation events during the 52-week 
placebo-controlled treatment period based on the patients with type 2 
inflammatory phenotype (baseline blood eosinophils ≥150 cells/µL or 
baseline FeNO ≥20 ppb). 
For EU and EU reference countries: 
1st: Annualized rate of severe exacerbation events during the 52-week 
placebo-controlled treatment period based on the patients with type 2 
inflammatory phenotype (baseline blood eosinophils ≥150 cells/µL or 
baseline FeNO ≥20 ppb). 
2nd: Annualized rate of severe exacerbation events during the 52-week 
placebo-controlled treatment period based on the patients with baseline blood 
eosinophils ≥150 cells/µL population. 
 3rd:  Annualized rate of severe exacerbation events during the 52-week 
placebo-controlled treatment period based on the patients with baseline blood 
eosinophils ≥300 cells/µL population. 
Multiplicity control for any secondary endpoints if considered will be specified 
in the SAP. Otherwise, nominal p-values will be provided. 
Handling of missing data 
If patients withdraw from the study before Week 52 with severe exacerbation 
events that may occur after study discontinuation, these patients are 
considered as patients with missing data on severe exacerbation. Number,

reasons and timing of the missing data will be summarized by treatment 
groups. In the primary analysis, all observed data will be used regardless of 
treatment adherence or increase of asthma background medication. No 
imputation will be conducted for the missing severe exacerbation information 
after a patient prematurely withdraws from the study up to Week 52. In 
addition, sensitivity analyses based on pattern mixture model, placebo based 
pattern mixture model and tipping point analysis based on the same negative 
binomial model as being used in the primary analysis may be conducted to 
assess the robustness of the conclusion of the main model. Details of these 
sensitivity analyses will be described in the SAP. 
Analysis of other secondary endpoints 
The change from baseline for continuous endpoints will be analyzed using a 
mixed-effect model with repeated measures (MMRM) approach. The model 
will include change from baseline as response variables, and for treatment, 
age, weight (≤30kg, >30kg), region, baseline eosinophil level (<300 cells/μL, 
≥300 cells/μL), baseline FeNO level (<20 ppb, ≥20 ppb), baseline ICS dose 
level (medium/high), visit, treatment-by-visit interaction, baseline value, and 
baseline-by-visit interaction as covariates; unless otherwise specified (details 
will be documented in SAP). Sex, height, and ethnicity will also be included as 
covariates in the models for spirometry parameters. An unstructured 
correlation matrix will be used to model the within-patient errors. Parameters 
will be estimated using restricted maximum likelihood method using the 
Newton-Raphson algorithm. Statistical inferences on treatment comparisons 
for the change from baseline at Weeks 12 will be derived from the mixed-
effect model with Kenward and Roger degree of freedom adjustment 
approach. Treatment comparisons at other timepoints, 8, 12, 24, 36 and 52 
Week and other timepoints in between will also be provided from the mixed-
effect model for descriptive purpose. Data up to Week 52 will be included as 
response variables. 
Time to first severe asthma exacerbation event and time to first LOAC will be 
analyzed using a Cox regression model with time-to-event as the dependent 
variable, and treatment, age, weight (≤30kg, >30kg), region, baseline 
eosinophil level (<300 cells/μL, ≥300 cells/μL), baseline FeNO level (<20 ppb, 
≥20 ppb), baseline ICS dose level (medium/high) and number of asthma 
events prior to the study as covariates. The estimated hazard ratio (dupilumab 
versus placebo) along with its 95% confidence interval will be presented. The 
Kaplan-Meier method will be used to derive the proportion of patients with a 
severe asthma exacerbation event at Weeks 12, 24, 36, and 52, specific to 
each treatment group. 
The safety variables, including AEs, laboratory parameters, vital signs, ECG, 
and physical examinations will be summarized using descriptive statistics. 
The analysis of safety variables will be performed based on the safety 
population. 
Interim Analysis 
There is no interim analysis planned for this study. 
Planned database lock 
The database lock is planned based on the time when all randomized patients 
reach complete week 52 visit or discontinue from the study before week 52. 
Analyses will be based on all data collected up to this database lock and will 
be considered as the final analyses in the CSR (Clinical Study Report). 
Additional data between database lock and last patient completing last visit 
will be summarized in a CSR addendum.

a The Screening Period is 4±1 weeks (21-35 days) in duration to collect baseline data on asthma control and assure eligibility criteria. Prior to and during the Screening Period, patients must be on one of the 
following: stable-dose background therapy of medium-dose inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) with second controller medication (ie, long-acting β2 agonist [LABA], leukotriene receptor antagonist [LTRA], long-acting 
muscarinic antagonist (LAMA), or methylxanthines) or high-dose ICS alone or high-dose ICS with second controller, for at least 3 months with a stable dose ≥1 month prior to Screening Visit 1. 
b Randomization Visit (Visit 2) is defined as Day 1. The randomization will be stratified by eosinophil count (<300 cells/ µL and ≥300 cells/µL) and stable dose-level of ICS (medium/high) at Screening, and by 
region. 
c Patients who permanently discontinue the study medication will be asked and encouraged to return to the clinic for study visits and participate in assessments according to the visit schedule until the end of the 
study (EOS) with a ±5 day window or up to recovery or stabilization of any adverse event. At the time of permanent treatment discontinuation, patients will perform the early treatment discontinuation (ETD) visit 
with all the assessments defined for the end-of-treatment (EOT) Visit 28. However, patients who discontinue early from treatment will not be eligible for the 1-year long-term extension study.  
For patients who permanently discontinue the study, under exceptional circumstances where there is no possibility for a patient and parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) to come to the site for the scheduled 
follow-up visit, a phone contact may be made after Sponsor’s approval is given. During that phone contact, at least information about adverse events (AEs), concomitant medication and asthma exacerbation 
events must be collected, and the schedule for these calls should still reflect the visit schedule.  
Patients who discontinue early from treatment may be asked to return to the clinic to have additional ADA samples collected for analysis based on the overall assessment of antibody titers and clinical presentation 
at the time of discontinuation. 
d Eligible patients who complete the Randomized Treatment Period will be offered the opportunity to participate in the 1-year long-term extension study with dupilumab. Patients subsequently enrolled in the 1-year 
long-term extension study will not participate in the post-treatment period of this trial. 
e The visit windows for all subsequent visits post-randomization on Day 1 will be ±3 days during the treatment period and ±5 days during the post-treatment period.

Prior to any screening assessments: all patient ≥6 years of age (or above an age determined by the Institutional Review Board (IRB)/Independent Ethics Committee (IEC) and in according with the local regulations 
and requirements) and their parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) will receive information about the study, on study objective(s) and procedures, to the fullest extent possible, in their language and in terms they 
are able to understand, and must sign and date the IRB/IEC approved Informed Assent Form (IAF) and Informed Consent Form (ICF), respectively. For girls who have started menstruating, a specific assent form 
must be obtained. 
 
 
.  
g Medical history, asthma-specific medical history (ie, family history of atopy & Ig E mediated disease [particularly maternal], premature birth and/or, low birthweight, exposure to tobacco smoke, recurring viral 
infections in early childhood), surgical history. 
h Reversibility of at least 10% in FEV1 after the administration of 200 to 400 mcg (2 to 4 puff inhalations with metered-dose inhaler [MDI]) of albuterol/salbutamol or 45 to 90 mcg  (2 to 4 puffs with MDI) of 
levalbuterol/levosalbutamol reliever medication before randomization (up to 3 opportunities during the same visit are allowed with a maximum of 12 puffs of reliever medication if tolerated by the patient). 
Documented reversibility or positive airway hyper-responsiveness to methacholine within 12 months prior to Screening V1 is considered acceptable. If the subject does not meet this reversibility criterion at 
Screening V1, up to 2 additional assessment attempts can be performed at any time between Screening and Baseline Visit 2. 
i 
A separate assent must be obtained from female patients at the earliest visit when the investigator is notified that the first menses have occurred. 
j 
Vital signs, including blood pressure (mmHg), heart rate (beats per minute), respiratory rate (breaths per minute), body temperature (degrees Celsius), height (cm) and body weight (kg) will be measured at the 
Screening and Randomization visits (Visits 1 and 2) and every subsequent visit. Vital signs will be measured in the sitting position using the same arm at each visit, and will be measured prior to receiving 
investigational product at the clinic visits.  
k Electronic diary/PEF meter is used for daily recording of salbutamol/albuterol or levosalbutamol/levalbuterol use, asthma controller drug use, oral steroid requirements, nocturnal awakenings due to asthma 
symptoms requiring the use of reliever medications, morning and evening asthma symptom NRS scores and AM and PM PEF. This device is dispensed at Visit 1 and information is downloaded from this device on 
the other indicated days. 
l 
During the Randomized Treatment Period IMP administrations, every 2 week (q2w), will be performed by the Investigator at scheduled study site visits (must be separated by at least 11 days) up to Week 50. In 
the first 12 weeks (up to V8), patients will be monitored at the study site for a minimum of 30 minutes after injection of IMP, to assess any injection reactions (see Section 8.1.4 for more details). After 
randomization, dose regimen will not be adjusted for patient’s age or weight until the randomized treatment will be completed. 
m Home Dosing and training of parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s): For all visits scheduled only for IMP administration (ie, at Weeks 14, 18, 22, 26, 30, 34, 38, 42, 46, and 50), parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal 
guardian(s) may decide to do the injection of IMP at home (ie, home administration of IMP). These parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) will be trained by the Investigator or designee to administer IMP, by 
demonstration at V2, V3, and V4 (injections performed by Investigator). After parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) have successfully administered IMP under close supervision of the Investigator at V5-V8 
(Weeks 6, 8, 10, and 12), the Investigator may approve them to perform home administration of IMP at all further visits that do not require a scheduled visit. It is possible to start home administration at any visit 
following V9, provided parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) have been trained by the investigator or designee to administer IMP by demonstration at not less than 3 visits followed by a successful IMP 
administration under close supervision of the investigator or designee at not less than 3 visits.  
However, if parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) do not develop the comfort to inject the IMP at home, or the Investigator determines that injection by parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) at home is not 
appropriate, alternative arrangements may be made: for example for qualified site personnel and/or healthcare professionals (eg, visiting nurse service) to administer IMP at these timepoints at the patient's home. 
n Forced expiratory volume (FEV1), PEF, forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory flow between 25% to 75% of vital capacity (FEF25%-75%) at all visits; pulmonary function tests should be performed in the 
morning if possible, but if it could only be done at a different time of the day, the spirometry should be done at approximately the same time of the day at each visit throughout the study. Spirometry will be 
performed after a wash out period of bronchodilators according to their action duration, for example, withholding the last dose of salbutamol/albuterol or levosalbutamol/levalbuterol for at least 6 hours, withholding 
the last dose of LABA for at least 12 hours, and withholding the last dose of LAMA for at least 24 hours. This will be verified before performing the PEF measurements. 
o Treatment Period stability limits will be established for FEV1 and PEF. Period stability limit for PEF is defined as the respective mean AM or PM PEF obtained over the last 7 days prior to Visit 2 (Day1). There 
should be at least 4 days’ measurement for setting up the stability limit, and the first dosing visit should be rescheduled until data for 4 days are available.  
p Asthma Control Questionnaire–Interviewer Administered (ACQ-IA, for children 6 to <12 years), ACQ-7 and ACQ-5 scores and Paediatric Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire With Standardised Activities–
Interviewer Administered (PAQLQ(S)-IA) score, for children ≥7 years old at Randomization V2, are administered by the interviewer during the study visits at the clinical site. The ACQ-7 score will be used to follow 
up evaluations in all patients.  The ACQ-5 (the first 5 items of the ACQ-7) score is used for eligibility evaluation at Screening V1 and Baseline V2 for all patients.  
q Pediatric rhinoconjunctivitis quality of life questionnaire–Interviewer Administered (PRQLQ-IA): For those patients with comorbid allergic rhinitis, administered by the interviewer during the study visits at the clinical 
site.

s Assessment of total IgE, antigen-specific IgE, antigen-specific IgG4, and ratio of IgE:IgG4. 
t 
Systemic drug concentration samples are to be collected prior to dosing and in case of SAE and AESI. 
u Exhaled nitric oxide assessment is conducted prior to spirometry and following a fast of ≥1 hour.  
 
 
 
w ADA samples are to be collected prior to dosing and in case of SAE and AESI.  
x For female patients who have commenced menstruating (ie, are of child-bearing potential) at Screening, a urine pregnancy test is mandatory at the Screening Visit 1 with negative result obtained prior to 
randomization at Visit 2 (Week 0) and at every subsequent visits defined in the flowchart. For female patients who happen to commence menstruating after Screening, a negative urine dipstick pregnancy test will 
be obtained prior to administration of IMP. 
y Hematology: hemoglobin, hematocrit, platelet count, total white blood cell (WBC) count with five-part differential count, and total red blood cell count. Serum chemistry: creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, glucose, uric 
acid, total cholesterol, total protein, albumin, total bilirubin (in case of values above the normal range, differentiation in conjugated and non-conjugated bilirubin), alanine aminotransferase, aspartate 
aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, lactate dehydrogenase, electrolytes (sodium, potassium, chloride), bicarbonate, and creatine phosphokinase. Patients’ fasting (considering fasting as no intake of any food 
or drink except for water for at least 8 hours) or non-fasting status at blood sample collection will be recorded on the Central Laboratory Requisition Form. Clinical laboratory testing only at Screening Visit 1 will 
include hepatitis screen covering hepatitis B surface antigen (HBs Ag), hepatitis B surface antibody (HBs Ab), hepatitis B core antibody (HBc Ab), hepatitis C virus antibodies (HCV Ab), Human Immunodeficiency 
Virus (HIV) screen (Anti-HIV-1 and HIV-2 antibodies) and anti-nuclear antibody (ANA). 
z At Screening, parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) will be asked to provide information on their child’s vaccination schedule, and assess whether immunizing their children with any vaccination for tetanus, 
diphtheria, pertussis and/or seasonal trivalent/quadrivalent influenza (as per local medical practice) will result in vaccination during the study.  
The timing of these vaccinations should be adjusted to fit into the IMP treatment period if appropriate. Any planned tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis vaccination should be administered between Visit 12 (Week 20) 
and Visit 18 (Week 32), as administration after Visit 18 (Week 32) may require an additional blood draw (refer to Section 9.3.1.2) for assessment.  Any planned seasonal trivalent/Quadrivalent influenza should be 
administered between Visit 6 (Week 8) and Visit 18 (Week 32) as administration after Visit 18 (Week 32) may require an additional blood draw (refer to Section 9.3.1.2) for assessment. 
aa Scheduled blood sample collection for pre- and post-vaccine antibody titers (ie, for IgG response assessment), for both vaccinations (ie, any tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis and/or seasonal trivalent/quadrivalent 
influenza) should be drawn within 8 weeks prior to vaccination and at 3-4 weeks (up to 6 weeks) after the respective vaccination(s); however, all blood titer samples must be drawn between Week 6 and Week 50 
(ie, Visit 5 and Visit 27, respectively). 
Depending on patient’s vaccination schedule during the course of this study, every effort should be made to draw pre-vaccination titers at either Weeks 6, 12, or 24 (V5, V8, V14) of the Randomized Treatment 
Period, and to draw post-vaccination titers at either Weeks 12, 24, or 36 (V8, V14, V20) of the Randomized Treatment Period. 
For patient(s) requiring urgent/emergency vaccination with any seasonal trivalent/quadrivalent influenza and/or any tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis vaccine (eg, flu season approaching, animal bite, emergency 
room standard procedures) please refer to Section 9.3.1.2.

INTRODUCTION AND RATIONALE  
Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways characterized by airway 
hyperresponsiveness, acute and chronic bronchoconstriction, airway edema, and mucus plugging. 
The inflammatory component of asthma involves many cell types, including mast cells, 
eosinophils, T-lymphocytes, neutrophils, and epithelial cells and their biological products. For 
most asthma patients, a regimen of controller therapy and reliever therapy provides adequate 
long-term control.  
The majority of children with asthma have mild or moderate disease and can obtain adequate 
asthma control through avoidance of triggering factors and/or with the help of medications, such 
as short-acting inhaled β2-receptor agonists, inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) and, when needed, 
addition of long-acting β2-receptor agonists and leukotriene receptor antagonists (LTRA). 
However, 2-5% of all asthmatic children have uncontrolled asthma despite maximum treatment 
with conventional medications (2). Children with such severe symptoms are heterogeneous with 
respect to trigger factors, pulmonary function, inflammatory pattern and clinical symptoms (3). 
These children have a reduced quality of life, account for a large proportion of the healthcare costs 
related to asthma and represent a continuous clinical challenge to the pediatrician. 
Additionally, the long term adverse effects of systemic and ICS on bone metabolism, adrenal 
function, and growth in children lead to attempts to minimize the amount of corticosteroid usage. 
Lastly, the consequences of unresponsiveness to therapy or lack of compliance with therapy are 
evidenced by loss of asthma control (LOAC), which can be severe (ie, severe asthma exacerbation 
event) and possibly life-threatening. The poor response of some patients with asthma may reflect 
the number of cellular and molecular mechanisms operative in asthma. There is increasing interest 
in distinct phenotypes because targeted therapy is more likely to be successful in patients with 
similar underlying pathobiologic features (4). Recent therapeutic approaches in asthma have been 
focused on trying to control type 2 inflammation. A vast majority of 6-11 years old with asthma 
show evidence of type 2 inflammation characterized by upregulation of inflammatory cytokines, 
interleukin-4 (IL-4), interleukin-5 (IL-5), and interleukin-13 (IL-13). The most recent GINA 
guidelines (1) for management of severe asthma report that for patients with severe asthma, type 2 
inflammation can be identified by elevated peripheral eosinophils (≥150 cells/µL) and/or elevated 
FeNO (≥20 ppb), and/or sputum eosinophils ≥2%, and/or asthma that is clinically allergen-driven. 
Up-regulation of IL-4 and IL-13 activity has been implicated as an important inflammatory 
component of asthma disease progression. Dupilumab is under development as a potential novel 
treatment for asthma. Dupilumab, a fully human monoclonal antibody, is directed against the IL-4 
receptor alpha subunit (IL-4Rα), which is a component of IL-4 heterodimeric receptors Type I 
(IL4-ligand only) and Type II (both IL-4 and IL-13 ligands). The binding of dupilumab to IL-4Rα 
results in blockade of downstream signaling initiated by both IL-4 and IL-13. For complete 
information regarding the preclinical and clinical evaluation of dupilumab to date, see the 
Investigator’s Brochure. 
4.1 
RATIONALE  
This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled efficacy and safety study to be 
conducted in children 6 to <12 years of age with uncontrolled persistent asthma while on a

medium dose ICS, in combination with a second controller or high-dose ICS alone or in 
combination with a second controller. This study is designed to investigate the efficacy and safety 
profile of dupilumab over one year in a population of asthmatic children in need for an additional 
treatment to their current maintenance management. The presence of a placebo arm is appropriate 
for the objectives of this study since it will provide the most robust assessment of the efficacy and 
safety of dupilumab.  
The proposed study design provides the opportunity to understand better the efficacy of 
dupilumab on multiple asthma domains including prevention of severe exacerbations, lung 
function and symptom control. The short and long term effects on lung function and symptom 
control will be evaluated.  
4.2 
RATIONALE FOR DOSE SELECTION  
The dose regimens for pediatric patients aged 6 to <12 years are selected based on the observed 
efficacy and safety in the dose ranging study in adult asthma patients (Phase 2b study DRI12544), 
the PK characterization and safety observation in pediatric atopic dermatitis (AD) study 
(R668-AD-1412) of 6 to <18 years, as well as the available blinded safety data of EFC13579, the 
asthma pivotal study being conducted in adults and adolescents. 
In the completed Phase 2b dose ranging study (DRI12544), dupilumab efficacy at 4 dose 
regimens (300 mg once every 4 weeks (q4w) and once every 2 weeks (q2w), and 200 mg q2w and 
q4w with a total dose on Day 1 of 600 mg for (the 300 mg regimen) and 400 mg (for the 200 mg 
regimen) respectively, was evaluated in patients with uncontrolled asthma while receiving a stable 
dose of medium to high-dose ICS/ Long-acting β2 agonist (LABA) in addition to their study 
treatment (placebo or dupilumab). Dupilumab demonstrated dose dependent improvement, 
compared with placebo, in the change from baseline in forced expiratory volume in 1 second 
(FEV1) at Week 12. In addition, consistent efficacy results in favor of dupilumab over placebo 
were observed in the majority of main secondary efficacy endpoints including annualized rate of 
severe exacerbation events. The maximum treatment effects were observed in the 200 mg and 
300 mg q2w regimens. Exposure-response analyses further supported the maximal effect for both 
endpoints of FEV1 and severe exacerbation rate approached/achieved at the steady-state exposure 
of the two q2w regimens (mean steady-state trough concentrations of 28.3 and 58.5 mg/L, 
respectively). Dupilumab was observed to be safe and well tolerated across all dose regimens 
examined. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were reported in 79.1% patients in the 
dupilumab groups (75.3% to 82.8%) and 74.7% patients in the placebo group. The most 
frequently reported TEAEs included injection site reactions, respiratory tract infections and 
related symptoms, headache, and back pain. There was no apparent dose relationship for any 
particular TEAE except for injection site reactions, majority of which were mild in nature.  
From the available blinded safety data of EFC13579, injection site erythema, nasopharyngitis, and 
upper respiratory tract infection were the 3 most commonly reported TEAEs among adolescents 
in this study. None of the TEAEs observed in the 26 adolescents dosed at the time of blinded 
analysis were severe or serious. No new safety signal was identified in these adolescent patients 
compared to adults. The top 3 most common TEAEs in adolescents were also the most common 
reported TEAEs in adults in this study and the DRI12544 study.

Study R668-AD-1412 was a Phase 2a, multicenter, open-label, ascending-dose, sequential-cohort 
study investigating the safety, tolerability, PK, immunogenicity, and efficacy of single-dose and 
repeat-doses of dupilumab administered subcutaneously (SC) in pediatric patients with moderate 
to severe AD (for adolescents 12 to <18 years old) or severe AD (for school-going children ≥6 to 
<12 years old) that was not adequately controlled with topical treatments. The 2 assessed dose 
regimens at 2 mg/kg and 4 mg/kg corresponds to the weight normalized dose in adults at 150 mg 
and 300 mg, respectively. Dupilumab administered as single and repeated weekly doses of 
2 mg/kg and 4 mg/kg for 4 weeks was generally safe and well tolerated in both pediatric age 
groups included in that study. There was a higher incidence of TEAEs following single and 
repeated weekly administration of 4 mg/kg compared to 2 mg/kg in both age-groups. However, 
most of the adverse events (AE) were mild in intensity, transient in nature and not related to study 
drug. There were no new safety signals detected with dupilumab in the pediatric age 
6 to <18 years. The most common AEs reported after both single doses and repeated weekly doses 
were nasopharyngitis and exacerbation of AD.  
In study R668-AD-1412, dupilumab administered as a single dose of either 2 mg/kg or 4 mg/kg, 
in the Study R668-AD-1412, induced significant and rapid reduction of disease activity in patients 
at Week 2 (34% and 51% reduction in eczema area and severity index (EASI) score from baseline 
for 2 mg/kg and 4 mg/kg doses respectively. Repeated weekly doses of dupilumab led to a further 
improvement in disease severity in patients in both dose groups (67% and 70% reduction in 
EASI score from baseline for 2 mg/kg and 4 mg/kg doses, respectively, at Week 12). There did 
not appear to be a clear dose response, as the 2 dose groups showed similar efficacy on the 
various endpoints evaluated during the study.  
The collective clinical data on the exposure versus efficacy and safety in the adults and pediatric 
population as observed to date supports a similar exposure-response relationship for efficacy and 
safety between the adult and pediatric populations down to 6 years of age and justify the approach 
of selecting EFC14153 dose regimen based on the criteria of matching adult efficacious and safe 
exposure. 
Dupilumab PK is not affected by disease status/population in adults. Similar PK profile was 
observed between healthy subjects, and patients with AD or asthma. Thus, the same PK profile is 
anticipated in children with asthma and AD which supports the use of AD-1412 PK data for the 
pediatric asthma dose selection. The observed pediatric PK profile analysis showed general 
similarity in dupilumab PK profile between adults and children after accounting for body size 
difference. Similar to adults, body weight (bw) was the only statistically significant covariate of 
dupilumab PK identified in the pediatric population of 6 to 17 years, where clearance and volume 
of distribution decreases with decreasing bw following an allometric relationship. There was no 
significant impact of age and gender on dupilumab PK after adjustment of the bw effect. 
A pediatric Pop PK model was developed using pediatric data alone (AD-1412) together with 
single IV dose PK data in healthy volunteers (AS-0907) to further evaluate the typical 
pharmacokinetics in the pediatric population, and to identify and quantify PK variability 
component in the pediatric population. The pediatric Pop PK model shares the same two-
compartment model structure as that of adults with the first-order absorption, and parallel linear 
and nonlinear elimination (target-mediated disposition with quasi steady-state QSS

To determine the appropriate dose regimen, the population PK simulation was conducted using 
the pediatric Pop PK model and the pediatric demographic data of Centers for Disease Control 
and Prevention-National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (CDC-NHANES) database. 
The NHANES population of 6 to 11 years is adequate to reflect the inter-subject variability to 
inform the dosage recommendation in the age group.  
To account for body size difference in the pediatric population and taking into account the 
observed large therapeutic indices of dupilumab, a tiered fixed dosing regimen was chosen over 
weight based (mg/kg) dosing, as this approach offers a potential safety advantage of reducing the 
risk of dosing errors, as well as dosing convenience for patients by allowing self-administration 
using a prefilled syringe/device. The dosing regimen was selected as shown below:  
Dupilumab 200 or 100 mg SC once q2w for children with bw >30 kg or ≤30 kg, respectively. 
The predicted exposure at 200 mg q2w in children aged 6 to <12 years weighing more than 30 kg 
largely overlaps with the observed efficacious exposure in adults at 300 mg and 200 mg q2w and 
is expected to be well within the adult safe exposure of up to 300 mg qw. Similarly, the lower 
dose of 100 mg q2w in children less than 30 kg is predicted to provide comparable exposure to 
that in the heavier children and the adults. Moreover, the estimated range of steady-state Cmax was 
generally within the range of pediatric exposure in 6 to <12 years observed in AD-1412 which 
was well tolerated and safe.  
In summary, the proposed tiered dosing regimen (200 mg q2w weighing >30 kg and 100 mg q2w 
weighing ≤30 kg) for children aged 6 to <12 years is expected to provide significant clinical 
benefit and a safety profile similar to that of older patients.

STUDY TREATMENTS  
8.1 
INVESTIGATIONAL MEDICINAL PRODUCT(S)  
8.1.1 Dupilumab  
Dupilumab for children ≤30 kg bw at randomization:  150 mg/mL in pre-filled syringe to deliver a 
once q2w dose of 100 mg in a 0.67 mL subcutaneous injection. 
Dupilumab for children >30 kg bw at randomization:  175 mg/mL in pre-filled syringe to deliver a 
once q2w dose of 200 mg in a 1.14 mL subcutaneous injection. 
8.1.2 Placebo  
Matching placebo in a prefilled syringe to deliver a once q2w dose of placebo in a 0.67 mL or 
1.14 mL subcutaneous injection for children with ≤30 or >30 kg bw at randomization, 
respectively. 
8.1.3 Preparation of investigational product  
Dupilumab or matching placebo in glass pre-filled syringes will be dispensed to the patients. 
Additional information will be provided in the Pharmacy manual. 
8.1.4 Dosing schedule  
The IMP is administered every 14±3 days q2w. The doses of investigational product must be 
separated by ≥11 days to avoid overdose.  
The IMP administrations will be performed by the Investigator or designee at scheduled study site 
visits following clinic procedures and blood collection (see Section 1.2).  Patients will be 
monitored for a minimum of 30 minutes after each study-site administrated injection of IMP, to 
assess any injection site reactions (eg, for any signs or symptoms of a hypersensitivity reaction). 
For all visits scheduled only for IMP administration, parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) may 
decide to do the injection of IMP at home (ie, home administration of IMP). These 
parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) will be trained by the Investigator or designee to 
administer IMP, by demonstration at Visit 2, Visit 3, and Visit 4 (injections performed by 
Investigator). After parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) have successfully administered IMP 
under close supervision of the Investigator at Visit 5-Visit 8 (Weeks 6, 8, 10, and 12), the 
Investigator may approve them to perform home administration of IMP at all further visits that do 
not require a scheduled clinic visit (ie, at Weeks 14, 18, 22, 26, 30, 34, 38, 42, 46, and 50). 
Patients should be monitored for 30 minutes after home administration of IMP. It is possible to 
start home administration at any visit following Visit 9, provided parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal 
guardian(s) have been trained by the investigator or designee to administer IMP by demonstration

at not less than 3 visits followed by a successful IMP administration under close supervision of 
the investigator or designee at not less than 3 visits. 
However, if parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) do not develop the comfort to inject the IMP 
at home, or the Investigator determines that injection by parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) at 
home is not appropriate, alternative arrangements may be made: for example for qualified site 
personnel and/or healthcare professionals (eg, visiting nurse service) to administer IMP at these 
timepoints at the patient's home.  
For IMP doses not given at the study site, ‘home dosing diary’ (paper format) will be provided to 
record information related to the injections. Such home dosing diaries will be kept as source data 
in the patient’s study file.  
Parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) should be instructed to avoid missing any site visits (ie, 
IMP doses) or doses of background therapy during the study. For any patient who misses a 
site-visit (ie, IMP dose) or doses of background therapy, the parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal 
guardian(s) should be reminded to be diligent to avoid missed visits and doses of background 
therapy thereafter.  
The patient(s)/parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) should continue their scheduled visits for 
IMP treatment (with study procedures, as detailed in Section 1.2), even if more than 2 consecutive 
doses of IMP are missed, or background medication was not taken by the patient(s) for up to 
2-4 days. 
The SC injection sites should be alternated among the 4 quadrants of the abdomen (avoiding navel 
and waist areas), the upper thighs or the upper arms, so that the same site is not injected twice 
consecutively. For each injection, the anatomic site of administration will be recorded in the 
electronic-case report form (e-CRF) or, as applicable, the home dosing diary. 
Detailed instructions for transport, storage, preparation, and administration of IMP are provided to 
the patient and parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s). Parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) 
will complete a dosing diary to document compliance with injection of IMP.  
8.2 
NONINVESTIGATIONAL MEDICINAL PRODUCT(S)  
8.2.1 Inhaled Corticosteroids and Second Controller Medication  
The recognized second controller medication for combined use with medium- or high-dose ICS 
(dose-levels in children 6 to <12 years old, as per Appendix A) as background therapy during this 
study (only one controller is permitted; see eligibility criterion No. 14 in Section 7.2.2) will 
include the following classes: LABA, LTRA, LAMA, or methylxanthines. Please refer to 
Appendix B for an indicative (not exhaustive) list of recognized second controller medications 
approved for this study. These second controller medications will not be dispensed or supplied by 
the Sponsor.

For patients experiencing a deterioration of asthma during the study, the ICS dose may 
temporarily be increased up to 4-fold (recorded as LOAC event) for a maximum of 10 days, as 
indicated and upon recommendation of the physician and/or Investigator. Treatment may then be 
changed to SCS (severe exacerbation event) or revert back to the original ICS dose depending on 
the asthma symptoms progression.  
If a patient experiences 2 or more severe asthma exacerbation events anytime during the study, a 
permanent change (ie, step up in medium- to high-dose ICS or addition of second controller for 
patients on high-dose ICS monotherapy; see Appendix A and Appendix B) on their stable-dose 
background controller medication may occur, as indicated and upon recommendation of the 
physician and/or Investigator. 
Screening Period 
Prior to and during the Screening Period, patients must be on one of the following: stable-dose 
background therapy of medium-dose ICS with a second controller medication (ie, LABA, LTRA, 
LAMA, or methylxanthines) or high-dose ICS alone or high-dose ICS with second controller, for 
at least 3 months, with a stable dose background treatment for ≥1 month prior to Screening 
Visit 1. 
If patients take 2 different ICS, the total daily dose of ICS should be calculated, to evaluate the 
eligibility criteria on daily dose of ICS, which will be still considered as one controller. Please 
refer to medium and high-dose of ICS in Appendix A.  
If the Investigator, based on his/her medical judgment, decides to optimize a patients use of 
asthma reliever and/or background controller medications prior to the Screening Visit, any 
changes in ongoing asthma medications must occur more than 1 month in advance of the 
Screening Visit Day 1, in order to maintain a stable dose for at least 1 month prior to Day 1 
(Section 7.1). The introduction of new controller medications must occur at least 3 months prior 
to Screening with a stable dose for at least 1 month (Section 7.1). 
Randomized Treatment Period 
During this period, patients will continue to take their controller medication(s) used during the 
Screening Period. The dose of baseline regimen should not be changed, and no adjustments will 
be made unless the patient experiences 2 or more severe exacerbations events at any time during 
the study (in which case a step up of controller medication may be allowed). This will be recorded 
in the eDiary. 
Patients may be placed on systemic corticosteroids at any time as clinically indicated based on the 
presence of symptoms consistent with a severe asthma exacerbation event, as per the 
Investigator’s judgment. 
Post-treatment Period 
Upon completing the randomized treatment period, patients not continuing with the long-term, 
open-label extension study will enter the Post Treatment Period and will proceed to be treated

with the controller medication regimen and dose used during the randomized treatment period, 
which could be adjusted based on the medical judgment of the Investigator of the patients’ asthma 
control status.  
8.2.2 Reliever Medication(s)  
The reliever medication (ie, albuterol/salbutamol or levalbuterol/levosalbutamol) will not be 
dispensed or supplied by the Sponsor. All other reliever medications other than 
albuterol/salbutamol or levalbuterol/levosalbutamol should be avoided. 
Patient(s)/parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) may administer albuterol/salbutamol or 
levalbuterol/levosalbutamol reliever medication by MDI as needed during the study. Nebulizer 
solutions may be used as an alternative delivery method.  
Criterion for Loss of Asthma Control (LOAC) – Based on Increased Nebulizer Use (in 
e-CRF): 
The criterion for LOAC based on a patients increased nebulizer use and the nebulizer-to-puff 
conversion factor (see tables below), is determined as follows: 
Study personnel will convert salbutamol/albuterol nebulizer and levosalbutamol/levalbuterol 
nebulizer use as shown on the following tables:

3 levosalbutamol/levalbuterol nebulizer treatments (1.25 mg/treatment) between 7 and 
11 AM. Total daily = 3.75 mg or 12 puffs.  
After conversion of nebulizer-to-puff, and for every instance that the number of puffs is 
≥6 additional puffs of salbutamol/albuterol or levosalbutamol/levalbuterol in a 24-hour period 
(compared to Baseline) on 2 consecutive days in any week, a LOAC event should be documented.  
8.3 
BLINDING PROCEDURES  
8.3.1 Methods of blinding  
Dupilumab and placebo will be provided in identically matched pre-filled syringes. To protect the 
blind, each treatment kit of 0.67 or 1.14 mL (dupilumab/placebo) glass pre-filled syringes will be 
prepared such that the treatments (dupilumab and its matching placebo) are identical and 
indistinguishable and will be labeled with a treatment kit number. The randomized treatment kit 
number list will be generated by Sanofi. 
Patients and Investigators will be blinded to assigned treatment. Patients and Investigators will not 
be blinded to dose regimen as the volumes are different. 
Patient(s)/parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s), Investigators, and study site personnel will not 
have access to the randomization (treatment codes) except under circumstances described in 
Section 8.3.2. 
8.3.2 Randomization code breaking during the study  
In case of an AE, the code should only be broken in circumstances when knowledge of the IMP is 
required for treating the patient. 
Code breaking can be performed at any time by using the proper module of the interactive voice 
response system (IVRS)/interactive web response system (IWRS) and/or by calling any other 
phone number provided by the Sponsor for that purpose. If the blind is broken, the Investigator 
should document the date, time of day and reason for code breaking.

Page 54 
Patient withdrawal will only occur when the code break call is made at the site level, not the study 
level. This means that if the Emergency Unblinding transaction is performed by the Investigator 
(ie, at the site level), then the subject will be withdrawn from treatment. However, if the 
Emergency Unblinding transaction is performed by the Global Safety Officer (GSO) (ie, at the 
study level, as the GSO is not site based), then the subject will not be withdrawn from treatment. 
At the facilities where the systemic drug concentration measurements, ADAs and selected 
biomarkers are determined, the samples will be analyzed prior to data base lock leading to 
unblinding of responsible bioanalysts. Bioanalysts are excluded from the clinical trial team. 
Patient(s)/parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s), Investigators, and site personnel will not have 
access to assay results for immunoglobulins (immunoglobulin G (IgG), IgG subclasses, 
Immunoglobulin A (IgA), IgM and IgE) after randomization and first administration of study 
medication, because these values have the potential for unblinding. Furthermore, neither 
patient(s)/parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s), Investigators nor site personnel will have access 
to total IgE, antigen-specific IgE, antigen-specific IgG4, Thymus and Activation-Regulated 
Chemokine (TARC) while the study is ongoing, as the related data are not essential for patient 
care and have the potential for unblinding. 
The DMC will receive blinded by treatment group or unblinded (if necessary) confidential reports 
from an independent statistician for review, which have to be handled strictly confidentially. None 
of these reports can be delivered to unauthorized persons. 
8.4 
METHOD OF ASSIGNING PATIENTS TO TREATMENT GROUP  
A randomized treatment kit number list will be generated centrally by Sanofi. The investigational 
product (dupilumab or placebo) will be packaged in accordance with this list. 
The Sanofi Clinical Supplies team will provide the randomized treatment kit number list and the 
Study Biostatistician will provide the randomization scheme to the centralized treatment 
allocation system (IVRS/IWRS). This centralized treatment allocation system will generate the 
patient randomization list according to which it will allocate the treatments to the patients. 
Patients who meet the entry criteria will be randomized to receive either dupilumab or placebo. 
Rescreening is not permitted if the patient fails to meet inclusion criteria. Patients who meet 
exclusion criteria may be rescreened once during the open Screening Period of the study. There is 
no requirement for a waiting period between the screen-failure date and the rescreening date. The 
IVRS/IWRS report will flag rescreened patients. Patients that are rescreened must have 
parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) resign a new ICF and sign a new IAF, and all Screening 
Visit 1 procedures must be repeated. 
The Investigator obtains treatment kit numbers at randomization and subsequent scheduled visits 
via an IVRS/IWRS that will be available 24 hours a day.

Patients will be randomized (2:1 ratio) to receive dupilumab or matching placebo. After a patient 
is randomly assigned to dupilumab or matching placebo, the dosage of dupilumab or matching 
placebo for the patient, 200 or 100 mg SC once q2w, will be determined based on bw >30 kg or 
≤30 kg, respectively. 
Randomization will be stratified by ICS dose (medium-dose versus high-dose) and eosinophil 
count (<300 cells/μL versus ≥300 cells/μL) at Screening, and by region.  
A randomized patient is defined as a patient who is registered and assigned with a treatment kit 
number from the centralized treatment allocation system, as documented from its log file. 
A patient cannot be randomized more than once in the study. 
8.5 
PACKAGING AND LABELING  
Dupilumab/placebo is supplied as glass prefilled syringes packed in a patient kit box. Each glass 
prefilled syringe and the patient kit box is labeled. 
Packaging is in accordance with the administration schedule. The labeling is in accordance with 
the local regulatory specifications and requirements. 
8.6 
STORAGE CONDITIONS AND SHELF LIFE  
All investigational products should be stored at a temperature between 2°C and 8°C in an 
appropriate, locked room under the responsibility of the Investigator or other authorized persons 
(eg, pharmacists) in accordance with local regulations, policies, and procedures. 
Control of IMP storage conditions, especially control of temperature (eg, refrigerated storage) and 
information on in-use stability and instructions for handling the Sanofi compound should be 
managed according to the rules provided by the Sponsor. 
8.7 
RESPONSIBILITIES  
The Investigator, the hospital pharmacist, or other personnel allowed to store and dispense the 
IMP will be responsible for ensuring that the IMP used in the clinical trial is securely maintained 
as specified by the Sponsor and in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements. 
All IMP will be dispensed in accordance with the Investigator's prescription and it is the 
Investigator's responsibility to ensure that an accurate record of IMP issued and returned is 
maintained. 
Any quality issue noticed with the receipt or use of an IMP (deficiency in condition, appearance, 
pertaining documentation, labeling, expiration date, etc) should be promptly notified to the 
Sponsor. Some deficiencies may be recorded through a complaint procedure.

A potential defect in the quality of IMP may be subject to initiation of a recall procedure by the 
Sponsor. In this case, the Investigator will be responsible for promptly addressing any request 
made by the Sponsor, in order to recall the IMP and eliminate potential hazards. 
Under no circumstances will the Investigator supply IMP to a third party (except for Duties and 
Taxes paid (DTP) shipment, for which a courier company has been approved by the Sponsor), 
allow the IMP to be used other than as directed by this clinical trial protocol, or dispose of IMP in 
any other manner. 
8.7.1 Treatment Accountability and Compliance  
The Investigator or pharmacist will also keep accurate records of the quantities of the IMP 
dispensed, used and unused. The IMP tracking log and inventory form is to be updated each time 
investigational product is dispensed. The study monitor will periodically check the supplies of the 
IMP held by the Investigator or pharmacist to assess accountability. 
All medication treatment kits (whether empty or unused) are returned by the 
parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) at each visit when a treatment dispensing is planned. The 
completed patient injection diary (returned diary (returned to the site at each visit), returned 
treatment kit boxes and any unused prefilled syringes will be used for drug accountability 
purposes. 
Treatment kit number has to be recorded on the appropriate page of the e-CRF and also on the 
IMP tracking log and inventory log form. 
An electronic diary is used by the parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) for the daily recording 
of albuterol/salbutamol or levalbuterol/levosalbutamol reliever medication use, daily use of 
background therapy (ie, medium-dose ICS with a second controller medication [ie, LABA, 
LTRA, LAMA, or methylxanthines] or high-dose ICS alone or high-dose ICS with second 
controller), and in case of an exacerbation event, recording of increased ICS dose and/or step up 
of second controller medication. Site personnel will review and download the electronic diary data 
at each clinic visit and will follow up with the parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) accordingly. 
The Monitoring Team in charge of the study will have to check e-CRF data comparing them with 
the centralized treatment allocation system information, the IMP kit and IMP tracking log and 
inventory form. 
For non-investigational medicinal product (NIMP) not provided by the Sponsor, tracking and 
reconciliation has to be achieved by the Investigator and must be captured in standard site 
documents and records (eg, medical notes). 
8.7.2 Return and/or Destruction of Treatments  
All partially used or unused treatment kits will be retrieved by the Sponsor or destroyed at study 
site. All used prefilled syringes should be kept in a sharp container by the 
parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) and be returned to sites for destruction. No unused IMP 
will be destructed at site unless the Sponsor provides written authorization.

A detailed treatment log of the destroyed IMP will be established with the Investigator (or the 
pharmacist) and countersigned by the Investigator and the monitoring team.  
8.8 
CONCOMITANT MEDICATION  
A concomitant medication is any treatment received by the patient concomitantly to any IMP(s) or 
during study participation. 
8.8.1 Prohibited Concomitant Medication  
The following concomitant treatments are not permitted during the Screening Period or during the 
Randomized Treatment Period: 
 
SCS for diagnoses other than severe exacerbation of asthma and/or high-potency topical 
steroids within 30 days before Screening Visit 1, during the Screening Period, and/or 
during the Randomized Treatment Phase of this study. Intra-articular steroids are not 
allowed to be used in the above mentioned period. 
 
IgE therapy (eg, omalizumab) within 130 days prior to Screening Visit 1, or any other 
biologic therapy/immunosuppressant to treat inflammatory disease or autoimmune disease 
within 2 months prior to Screening Visit 1. 
 
Allergen immunotherapy (except if initiated more than 3 months prior to Visit 1 and dose 
stable 1 month prior to Visit 1). 
 
Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) therapy. 
 
Live Attenuated Vaccines: refer to Appendix C. Live (attenuated) vaccines are allowed in 
the screening period, if taken at least 4 weeks prior to the administration of the first dose 
of investigational medicinal product (ie, at least 4 weeks prior to baseline visit). 
In Brazil, for patients in the yellow fever outbreak affected area (see Appendix N). 
 
Asthma relievers other than salbutamol/albuterol or levosalbutamol/levalbuterol: their use 
is not recommended unless in exceptional circumstances during the study period (eg, 
prescribed by a physician not participating in the study). 
 
Exposure to another antibody within a time period prior to Visit 1 that is less than 5 half-
lives of the antibody. In case the half-life is not known, then the minimum interval since 
exposure to the prior investigative antibody is 6 months. The minimum interval since 
exposure to any other (non-antibody) investigative study medication is 30 days prior to 
Visit 1. 
 
Any investigational treatment or procedure.  
8.8.2 Permitted Concomitant Medication  
 
Antihistamines 
 
Dermatological, ocular or intranasal corticosteroids (except for high-potency 
dermatological corticosteroids)

 
Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzyme substrates: 
The impact of dupilumab on CYP enzyme activity has not been studied and the effect of 
dupilumab on levels of IL-4 and IL-13 has not been fully characterized. However, IL-4 
was reported to upregulate CYP2E1, 2B6, 3A4 mRNA expression or downregulate 
CYP1A2 mRNA (5, 6). Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) incubated 
with various Th2 cytokines showed that IL-4 and IL-13 increased mRNA expression of 
CYP2B6 and CYP3A4 (5). Since the clinical significance of the limited in vitro findings 
for IL-4 and IL-13 involvement in CYP regulation and the impact of dupilumab on CYP 
enzymes is not fully understood, during the study treatment and at least up to the end of 
follow-up, caution should be used for drugs which are metabolized via these CYP 
isoforms and which have a narrow therapeutic index. This means that close clinical 
observation and/or laboratory monitoring as applicable are required in order to enable 
early detection of toxic manifestations or lack of activity/efficacy of these drugs, followed 
by dose adjustment or their withdrawal if needed (6, 7). Some examples of CYP450 
substrates with narrow therapeutic index are provided in Appendix D.

ASSESSMENT OF INVESTIGATIONAL MEDICINAL PRODUCT  
Two types of asthma exacerbation are defined in this study, as outlined below: 
1)   A severe exacerbation event during the study is defined as a deterioration of asthma requiring:  
 
Use of systemic corticosteroids for ≥3 days; or  
 
Hospitalization or emergency room visit because of asthma, requiring systemic 
corticosteroids  
2)   A LOAC event is defined as any of the following: 
 
≥6 additional reliever puffs of salbutamol/albuterol or levosalbutamol/levalbuterol in a

 
Increase in ICS dose ≥4 times than the dose at Visit 2; 
 
A decrease in AM or PM peak flow of 30% or more on 2 consecutive days of treatment, 
based on the defined stability limit. The Treatment Period stability limit is defined as the 
respective mean AM or PM peak expiratory flow obtained over the last 7 days prior to 
randomization (Day1); 
 
Severe exacerbation event 
Two events will be considered as different if the interval between their start dates is equal or 
greater than 28 days.

9.2.2.1 Disease-specific Efficacy Measures  
9.2.2.1.1 Spirometry  
A spirometer that meets the 2005 American Thoracic Society (ATS)/European Respiratory 
Society (ERS) recommendations will be used. Spirometry should be performed in accordance 
with the ATS/ ERS guidelines (8). For pre-bronchodilator measured parameters, including FEV1, 
peak expiratory flow (PEF), FVC and FEF 25-75%, spirometry will be performed after a wash out 
period of bronchodilators according to their action duration, for example, withholding the last 
dose of salbutamol/albuterol or levosalbutamol/levalbuterol for at least 6 hours, withholding the 
last dose of LABA for at least 12 hours, and withholding the last dose of LAMA for at least 
24 hours. This will be verified before performing the PEF measurements. 
For post-bronchodilator FEV1, the measure should follow the steps as that at screening test for 
reversibility validation. 
At all visits, spirometry will be performed either in the AM or PM, but preferred in the AM, and 
the spirometry should be done at approximately the same time at each visit throughout the study. 
The same spirometer and standard spirometric techniques, including calibration, will be used to 
perform spirometry at all visits and, whenever possible, the same person should perform the 
measurements.

Pulmonary function tests will be measured in sitting position; however, if necessary to undertake 
the testing with the subject standing or in another position, this should be noted on the spirometry 
report. For any subject, the position should be consistent throughout the study. 
Three measurements fulfilling the ATS acceptability and repeatability criteria should be obtained 
at every visit, if possible. The acceptability criteria must be applied before the repeatability 
criteria. Unacceptable maneuvers must be discarded before applying the repeatability criteria. If a 
subject fails to provide repeatable and/or acceptable maneuvers, an explanation should be 
recorded.  
The largest FEV1 and largest FVC should be recorded after the data are examined from all of the 
acceptable curves, even if they do not come from the same curve. The FEF 25-75% should be 
obtained from the single curve that meets the acceptability criteria and gives the largest sum of 
FVC plus FEV1 (best test). 
Automated best efforts, which combine FEV1 and FVC are not acceptable. 
The spirometer must be calibrated following the principles of the ATS/ERS guidelines every day 
that a study subject is seen and spirometry is carried out. The calibration records should be kept in 
a reviewable log. It is preferred that the calibration equipment (ie, 3-liter syringe) that is used to 
calibrate the spirometer be subjected to a validated calibration according to the manufacturer’s 
specifications. 
Further details on spirometry will be available in a separate operational manual provided to the 
sites. 
9.2.2.1.2 Reversibility/Post-bronchodilator FEV1  
Reversibility is defined as an increase in absolute FEV1 of 10% over the baseline value, 
demonstrated within 30 minutes of bronchodilator administration.  
At the screening test, reversibility is tested after the administration of 200 to 400 mcg (2 to 
4 puffs) of albuterol/salbutamol or 45 to 90 mcg of (2 to 4 puffs) levalbuterol/levosalbutamol 
reliever medication from a primed MDI (up to 3 opportunities during the same visit are allowed 
with a maximum of 12 puffs of reliever medication, if tolerated by the patient). Documented 
reversibility or positive airway hyperresponsiveness to methacholine within 12 months prior to 
Visit 1 is considered acceptable.  
All reversibility tests will be administered after pulmonary function testing and after asthma 
medications have been withheld for the appropriate intervals. Patients will receive the 
albuterol/salbutamol or levalbuterol/levosalbutamol reliever medication as puff inhalations using 
the respective MDI. Alternatively, and only if it is consistent with usual office practice (to be 
documented), reversibility testing may be performed using inhalation of nebulized 
albuterol/salbutamol or levalbuterol/levosalbutamol reliever medication.  
The spirometry for measuring absolute FEV1 may be repeated several times within the 30 minutes 
after administration of bronchodilator.

Reversibility is an inclusion criterion, but if the subject does not meet this reversibility criterion at 
Screening Visit 1, up to 2 additional assessments can be performed at any time between Screening 
and Baseline Visit 2.  
For post-bronchodilator FEV1 at remaining study visits following randomization, the measure 
should follow the steps as that at screening test for reversibility validation except a maximum of 
4 puffs of reliever medication can be used. If other attempt for reversibility test was performed at 
Baseline Visit 2, then the post-bronchodilator FEV1 will come from the result of this reversibility 
test. 
9.2.2.2 Disease-specific, Daily Efficacy Assessments  
9.2.2.2.1 Electronic Diary/PEF meter  
On a daily basis throughout the study, the patient uses an electronic diary/PEF meter to: 
 
Measure morning and evening PEF. 
 
Respond to the morning and evening asthma symptom scale questions. 
 
Indicate the number of inhalations/day of salbutamol/albuterol or 
levosalbutamol/levalbuterol for symptom relief. 
 
Record the number of inhalations/day of background product used. 
 
Record the number of nocturnal awakenings due to asthma symptoms requiring the use of 
reliever medication. 
 
Record oral steroids use for exacerbation event. 
At Screening (Visit 1), patients and parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) will be issued an 
electronic diary/PEF meter. Parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) will be instructed on the use 
of the device, and written instructions on the use of the electronic PEF meter will be provided to 
the parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s). In addition, the Investigator will instruct the 
parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) on how to record the following variables in the electronic 
PEF meter: 
 
AM PEF performed within 15 minutes after arising (between 5:30 AM and 11:59 AM) prior 
to taking any albuterol/salbutamol or levalbuterol/levosalbutamol reliever medication)  
 
PM PEF performed in the evening (between 5:30 PM and 11:59 PM) prior to taking any 
albuterol/salbutamol or levalbuterol/levosalbutamol reliever medication)  
 
Patient/Parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) should try to withhold albuterol/salbutamol 
or levalbuterol/levosalbutamol reliever medication for at least 6 hours before performing 
the PEF measurements.  
 
Three PEF efforts will be performed by the patient; all 3 values will be recorded by the 
electronic PEF meter, and the highest value will be used for evaluation 
Baseline AM PEF will be the mean AM measurement recorded for the 7 days prior to the first 
dose of investigational product, and baseline PM PEF will be the mean PM measurement recorded

for the 7 days prior to the first dose of investigational product. Period stability limit is defined as 
the respective mean AM or PM PEF obtained over the last 7 days prior to Day1. There should be 
at least 4 days’ measurement for setting up the stability limit, and the first dosing visit should be 
rescheduled until data for 4 days are available. 
Baseline reliever use will be the mean number of reliever use recorded for the 7 days prior to the 
first dose of investigational product. Period stability limit is defined as the respective mean AM or 
PM PFE obtained over the last 7 days prior to Day1. There should be at least 4 days’ 
measurement for setting up the stability limit, and the first dosing visit should be rescheduled until 
data for 4 days are available for both measurements. 
Information derived from the electronic PEF meter will be evaluated by the Investigator at study 
visits.  
9.2.2.2.2 Asthma Symptom Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) Score  
Parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) will record overall symptom scores in an electronic 
diary/PEF meter twice a day prior to measuring PEF. The patient’s overall asthma symptoms 
experienced during the waking hours will be recorded in the evening (PM symptom score). 
Baseline symptom scores will be the mean AM and mean PM scores recorded for the 7 days prior 
to randomization. The baseline AM/PM symptom score will be computed following the same 
algorithm used for baseline AM/PM PEF. Scores range between 0-4 with 0 indicating more mild 
symptoms and 4 indicating more severe symptoms. There is no global score, just an AM score and 
a PM score. A Minimal clinically important difference (MCID) of 0.35 is being used (9) (see 
Appendix E). 
9.2.2.2.3 Use of Reliever Medicine  
The number of salbutamol/albuterol or levosalbutamol/levalbuterol inhalations will be recorded 
daily by the parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) in an electronic diary/PEF meter. Each patient 
should be reminded that salbutamol/albuterol or levosalbutamol/levalbuterol should be used only 
as needed for symptoms, not on a regular basis or prophylactically. The baseline number of 
salbutamol/albuterol or levosalbutamol/levalbuterol inhalations/day will be based on the mean of 
the 7 days prior to randomization.   
9.2.2.3 Health Care Resource Utilization  
The HCRU questionnaire (questions on use of reliever medication, specialist visit, hospitalization, 
emergency or urgent medical care facility visit, outcome, school days’ loss, etc), as integrated part 
of the e-CRF, will be administered as shown in Section 1.2, and will additionally be used to asses 
HCRU in the event of any asthma exacerbation: severe asthma exacerbation event or evidence of 
LOAC (for detailed definitions see Section 9).

Endpoints)  
Patients will be administered the following PRO questionnaires by their 
parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) or with their help. The interviewer administered versions 
are only for children: ACQ-IA, paediatric asthma quality of life questionnaire (PAQLQ[S]-IA) 
and will be administered by an interviewer (clinic staff designated by Investigator).  
9.2.2.4.1 Asthma Control Questionnaire–Interviewer Administered  
The ACQ-IA was designed to measure both the adequacy of asthma control and change in asthma 
control, which occurs either spontaneously or as a result of treatment, and will be used for 
children 6 years to <12 years old at Screening.  
9.2.2.4.1.1 ACQ-7-IA (Asthma Control Questionnaire–Interviewer Administered, 7-question 
version)  
The Asthma Control Questionnaire–Interviewer Administered, 7-question version (ACQ-7-IA) 
has 7 questions, with the first 5 items of ACQ-7 (ACQ-5-IA score) addressing the most common 
asthma symptoms: 1) frequency in past week awoken by asthma during the night, 2) severity of 
asthma symptoms in the morning, 3) limitation of daily activities due to asthma, 4) shortness of 
breath due to asthma and 5) wheeze. And with 2 questions on overall reliever medication use 
6) short-acting bronchodilator use, and – after spirometry assessment – current asthma status: 
7) predicted bronchodilator use of FEV1 (pre-bronchodilator use, % and % predicted use).  
Patients and/or parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) are asked to recall how their asthma and/or 
their child’s asthma, respectively, has been during the previous week and to respond to the 
symptom questions 1) to 6) on a 7-point scale (0 = no impairment, 6 = maximum impairment).  
After spirometry assessment, patients and/or parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) are asked to 
recall how their asthma and/or their child’s asthma has been during the previous week and to 
respond to the symptom and bronchodilator use questions on a 7-point scale (0=no impairment, 
6= maximum impairment). Clinic staff scores the % predicted FEV1 on a 7-point scale based on 
the pre-central reading spirometry result displayed immediately after the testing. Then, the 
questions are equally weighted and the global ACQ-7 score is the mean of the 7 questions and 
therefore between 0 (totally controlled) and 6 (severely uncontrolled) (see Appendix F). 
Higher score indicates lower asthma control. Patients with a score below 1.0 reflect adequately 
controlled asthma and patients with scores above 1.0 reflect inadequately controlled asthma. On 
the 7-point scale of the ACQ-7, a change or difference in score of 0.5 is the smallest change that 
can be considered clinically important, corresponding to the MCID defined by the developer. 
For statistical analysis, ACQ-7 global score is calculated by the sponsor using the BMS post 
central reading value of the %predicted FEV1 for the question 7 of the questionnaire.  
Measurement properties such as reliability and ability to detect change have been documented in 
the literature.

9.2.2.4.1.2 ACQ-5-IA  (Asthma Control Questionnaire–Interviewer Administered, 5-question 
version)  
The ACQ-5-IA will be deduced from the responses to the first 5 questions of ACQ-7-IA and will 
be used for children ≥6 years to <12 years old at Screening.  
Higher score indicates lower asthma control. Patients with a score below 1.0 reflect adequately 
controlled asthma and patients with scores above 1.0 reflect inadequately controlled asthma. On 
the 7-point scale of the ACQ-5, a change or difference in score of 0.5 is the smallest change that 
can be considered clinically important, corresponding to the MCID defined by the developer. 
Measurement properties such as reliability and ability to detect change have been documented in 
the literature (10). 
9.2.2.4.2 Pediatric Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire with Standardized Activities–Interviewer 
Administered  
The PAQLQ(S)–IA was designed as an interviewer-administered PRO to measure the functional 
impairments that are most troublesome to children ≥7 years old at Randomization Visit 2, as a 
result of their asthma (see Appendix G). The instrument is comprised of 23 items, each rated on a 
7-point Likert scales from 1 to 7.  
The PAQLQ(S)-IA has 3 domains. The domains and the number of items in each domain are as 
follows: 
 
Symptoms (10 items) 
 
Activity limitation (5 items) 
 
Emotional function (8 items) 
A global score is calculated ranging from 1 to 7 and a score by domain. Higher scores indicate 
better quality of life. 
The instrument has been used in many clinical trials, and it has been shown to be reliable, valid 
(patient interviews), and sensitive to change. The MCID for PAQLQ(S)-IA is 0.5 (11). 
9.2.3 Safety and Tolerability Endpoints  
The same safety assessments will be applied across both arms. AEs, including serious adverse 
events (SAEs) and AEs of special interest (AESI), will be collected at any time during study. The 
Investigator will ask the patient and parents how he/she has felt since the last study visit. To 
assure the continuing safety of patients in this study, an independent DMC will be responsible for 
reviewing the safety data on a periodic basis throughout the course of the study as outlined in 
Section 6.4.1.

Safety observations 
 
The Investigator should take all appropriate measures to ensure the safety of the patients. 
Notably, he/she should follow up the outcome of SAEs/AESI until clinical recovery is 
complete and laboratory results have returned to normal or until progression has been 
stabilized or death. In all cases, this may imply that observations will continue beyond the 
last planned visit per protocol, and that additional investigations may be requested by the 
Sponsor. 
 
Patient height will be recorded at randomization as baseline value and compared with last 
height available during randomized treatment. 
 
When treatment is prematurely discontinued, the patient’s observations will continue until 
the end of the study as defined by the protocol for that patient. 
 
In case of any SAE/AESI with immediate notification brought to the attention of the 
Investigator at any time after the end of the study for the patient and considered by him/her 
to be caused by the investigational product with a reasonable possibility, this should be 
reported to the Sponsor. 
9.2.3.1 Adverse Events  
Adverse events for each patient will be monitored and documented from the time the subject gives 
informed consent at Visit 1 until the End of Study (EOS) Visit or till the rollover to the extension 
study, except for: 
 
SAEs  
 
AEs that are ongoing at database lock. 
Adverse events, AESIs and SAEs will be reported as described in Section 10.4.  
9.2.3.2 Vital Signs  
Vital signs blood pressure (mmHg), heart rate (beats per minute), respiratory rate (breaths per 
minute), body temperature (degrees Celsius), and will include height (cm) and body weight (kg), 
measured at the Screening and Randomization Visits (Visits 1 and 2) and every subsequent visit. 
Height will be measured with a proper stadiometer at every visit. Stadiometer measurements will 
be made without patient wearing shoes. Vital signs will be measured at clinic visits, in sitting 
position, using the same arm at each visit, and prior to administration of investigational product. 
Refer to Section 1.2 Study Flow Chart for the schedule of vital signs performed throughout this 
study. 
9.2.3.3 ECG Variables  
One recording of a standard 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) will be performed at Screening, 
EOT, and EOS (see Section 1.2).

9.2.3.4 Physical Examination  
Physical examinations will include an assessment of general appearance, skin, eyes, 
ear/nose/throat, heart, chest, abdomen, reflexes, lymph nodes, spine, and extremities, including 
menstruation status (Section 7.2.3). All deviations from normal will be recorded, including those 
attributable to the patient’s disease. Refer to Section 1.2 Study Flow Chart for the schedule of 
physical examination performed throughout this study. 
9.2.3.5 Clinical Laboratory Safety Variables  
The clinical laboratory tests will be conducted by an accredited (College of American Pathologists 
or equivalent) central laboratory with national and regional clinical licenses as required for 
diagnostic testing and must provide evidence of participation in proficiency testing, as 
appropriate. After reviewing the laboratory report and evaluating any results that are outside the 
normal range, the Investigator must sign and date the laboratory report.  
Abnormal laboratory values that are considered to be clinically significant by the Investigator 
should be repeated as soon as possible after receiving the laboratory report to rule out laboratory 
error. Persistent abnormal laboratory values should be repeated until they return to normal or until 
an etiology of the persistent abnormality is determined. 
Refer to Section 1.2 Study Flow Chart for the description of the clinical laboratory evaluations 
and the schedule of laboratory evaluations performed throughout this study. 
The clinical laboratory parameters that will be measured in safety hematology and chemistry 
blood samples are: 
 
Hematology: To include hemoglobin, hematocrit, platelet count, total white blood cell 
count with five-part differential count, and total red blood cell count. 
 
Serum chemistry: To include: creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, glucose, uric acid, total 
cholesterol, total protein, albumin, total bilirubin (in case of values above the normal 
range, differentiation in conjugated and non-conjugated bilirubin), ALT, AST, alkaline 
phosphatase (ALP), lactate dehydrogenase, electrolytes (sodium, potassium, chloride), 
bicarbonate, and CPK. Patients’ fasting or non-fasting status at blood sample collection 
will be recorded on the Central Laboratory Requisition Form. Fasting is considered as no 
intake of food or any drink except for water for at least 8 hours. 
 
Urine dipstick analysis including specific gravity, pH, glucose, ketones, blood, protein, 
nitrate, leukocyte esterase, urobilinogen and bilirubin (by dipstick). If any parameter on 
the dipstick is abnormal, a urine sample should be sent to the central laboratory for testing. 
If positive for proteins, microscopic analysis is performed by central laboratory.  
 
Clinical laboratory testing at Screening Visit 1 will include HBs-Ag, hepatitis B surface 
antibody (HBs-Ab), HBc-Ab, HCV-Ab, HIV screen (Anti-HIV-1 and HIV-2 antibodies) 
and anti-nuclear antibody (ANA).

9.2.3.6 Other Safety Laboratory Tests  
9.2.3.6.1 Serum Immunoglobulins and Subtypes  
Serum immunoglobulins: quantitative immunoassays for total IgG, IgG subclasses 1–4, IgM, and 
IgA.  
Please note that Total IgE, antigen-specific IgE, and antigen-specific IgG4 are assessed as 
pharmacodynamic parameters (eg, to determine the change from Baseline in IgE/IgG4 ratio; see 
Section 9.4.2). 
As a precaution for maintenance of treatment blinding, results for immunoglobulins will not be 
released to Investigators during the study, unless required for investigation of other safety findings 
in individual patients. 
9.2.3.7 Pregnancy Test  
A urine pregnancy test will be performed at Screening (Visit 1) in female patients of childbearing 
potential who have commenced menstruating, and a urine dipstick pregnancy test will be 
performed at Visit 2 prior to randomization and other clinic visits prior to administration of IMP. 
A negative result must be obtained at Visit 1 and 2 prior to randomization. Refer to Section 1.2 
Study Flow Chart for the schedule of pregnancy tests performed throughout this study. Those 
female patients who commence initial menstruation during the study will be similarly monitored 
with urine dipstick pregnancy tests and contraception consulting for the duration of the study.

vaccination during drug treatment  
 
Serum functional dupilumab concentrations 
 
ADA 
 
IgG responses to vaccination with any vaccination for tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis and/or 
seasonal trivalent/quadrivalent influenza vaccine during dupilumab treatment (may be 
analyzed as exploratory endpoint if insufficient power). 
9.3.1.1 Systemic Drug Concentration and Anti-drug Antibodies  
9.3.1.1.1 Sampling Time  
Predose blood samples will be collected for determination of functional dupilumab concentration 
in serum and anti-dupilumab antibodies (including neutralizing antibodies) on days designated in 
the Study Flow Chart (see Section 1.2 as well as Section 10.3.4, as needed for Brazil). The date of 
collection should be recorded in the patient e-CRF. The date and time also will be collected on the 
central laboratory requisition form and entered into the database through data transfers from the 
central laboratory. 
If an SAE or AESI occurs in a patient, blood samples should be collected for determination of 
functional dupilumab concentration, and anti-dupilumab antibody assessment at or near the onset 
and completion of the occurrence of the event, if possible. The exact date and time of sample 
collection must be recorded and entered into the database by the central laboratory. An 
unscheduled systemic drug concentration page in the e-CRF must be completed as well. 
Further follow-up of individual patients will be considered based on the overall assessment of 
antibody titers and clinical presentation. 
9.3.1.1.2 Handling Procedures  
Special procedures for collection, storage, and shipping of serum are described in separate 
operational manuals. An overview of handling procedure for samples used in the determination of

Humoral immune responses to standard vaccines (in this study: any vaccination for tetanus, 
diphtheria, pertussis and/or seasonal trivalent/quadrivalent influenza vaccine) occurring during 
dupilumab treatment will be evaluated for those patients eligible for these vaccinations. 
At Screening, parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) will be asked to provide information on 
their child’s vaccination record and schedule, and assess whether immunizing their children with 
any vaccination for tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis and/or seasonal trivalent/quadrivalent influenza 
(as per local medical practice) will result in vaccination during the study.  
Any patient who will receive planned vaccination for tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis and/or seasonal 
trivalent/quadrivalent influenza during the study, will be scheduled to receive the respective 
vaccination(s) and to have blood samples for antibody titers drawn before and after the respective 
vaccination(s), as detailed below, and as shown in the Study Flow Chart (Section 1.2).

Page 71 
Scheduled blood sample collection for pre- and post-vaccine antibody titers, for both vaccinations 
(ie, any tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis and/or seasonal trivalent/quadrivalent influenza) should 
be drawn within 8 weeks prior to vaccination and at 3-4 weeks (up to 6 weeks) after the respective 
vaccination(s); however, all blood titer samples must be drawn between Week 6 and Week 50 (ie, 
Visit 5 and Visit 27, respectively).  
Depending on patient’s vaccination schedule during the course of this study, every effort should 
be made to draw pre-vaccination titers at either Weeks 6, 12, or 24 (V5, V8, V14) of the 
Randomized Treatment Period, and to draw post-vaccination titers at either Weeks 12, 24, 36 or 
50 (V8, V14, V20, V27) of the Randomized Treatment Period (see Study Flow Chart Section 1.2). 
For patient(s) requiring urgent/emergency vaccination with any seasonal trivalent/quadrivalent 
influenza and/or any tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis vaccine (eg, flu season approaching, animal 
bite, emergency room standard procedures, etc) between Week 6 and Week 44 (ie, Visit 5 and 
Visit 24, respectively), the actual vaccination(s) may be given by physicians or qualified 
caregivers outside the study clinic; however, every effort should be made to obtain blood samples 
for pre- and post-vaccine antibody titers at scheduled draws as described above. Should 
vaccination be unable to be planned in accordance with other study blood draws (eg, tetanus 
vaccination for accidental puncture wounds, etc) as outlined above, at the discretion of the 
Investigator and with agreement of patient parents or caregiver, additional blood draws may be 
performed to obtain pre-vaccination and post-vaccination titers. 
9.3.1.3 Biomarker endpoints  
 
Change from baseline in fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) at Week 12. 
Fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) will be analyzed using a NIOX instrument (Aerocrine 
AB, Solna, Sweden), or similar analyzer using a flow rate of 50 mL/s, and reported in parts 
per billion (ppb). This assessment should be conducted prior to spirometry and following a 
fast of at least 1 hour. Further details on the procedure for measuring exhaled nitric oxide with 
NIOX will be provided in a separate instruction manual.

9.4.2 Pharmacodynamics and Phenotyping  
Asthma is a heterogeneous disease comprised of multiple phenotypes and endotypes. To assure 
optimization of treatment in children, a set of biomarkers related to type 2 inflammation will be 
assessed at Baseline and after treatment for their association with therapeutic response. In 
previous asthma trials in adults, treatment with dupilumab significantly suppressed the levels of 
serum total IgE (a product of immunoglobulin class switching driven by IL-4), antigen-specific 
IgEs, serum TARC (CCL17; a ligand of CCR4 receptors that attracts Th2 cells), and FeNO (a 
marker of airway inflammation) baseline values, including blood eosinophil counts from 
hematology assays were used to phenotype patients.  It is feasible that children may differ from 
adults in their biomarker profile. Therefore, these biomarkers are included in the current study. 
In addition, a possible switching in antigen-specific IgE toward the corresponding antigen-specific 
IgG4 will be assessed in this study to explore the possibility that dupilumab may in part attenuate 
allergic sensitization. 
Assay methodologies are briefly summarized below. More detailed information on the collection, 
handling, transport and preservation of samples (eg, minimum volumes required for blood 
collection and for aliquots for each biomarker assay) will be provided in a separate laboratory 
manual. 
Patient(s)/parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s), Investigators, and site personnel will be blinded 
and have no access to any assay results for total IgE, antigen-specific IgEs, antigen-specific IgG4, 
or TARC, while the study is ongoing, as the related efficacy data are not essential for patient care 
and have the potential for unblinding the study treatments. 
9.4.2.1 Serum Biomarkers  
Total IgE will be measured with a quantitative method (eg, ImmunoCAP) approved for diagnostic 
testing. 
Antigen-specific IgE and antigen-specific IgG4 will be detected using panels of antigens 
appropriate to the location of the clinical site (quantitative ImmunoCAP test; Phadia). 
TARC will be assayed with a validated immunoassay.

9.4.2.3 Patients Requiring a Permanent Step Up in Background Controller Medication 
After 2 or More Severe Asthma Exacerbation Events.  
For this study, severe asthma exacerbation events should be managed by the Investigators based 
on their medical judgment and applicable national/international asthma management guidelines, 
and as outlined in this protocol: 
For patient(s), who experience 2 or more severe asthma exacerbation events anytime during the 
Treatment Period, a permanent change (step up in medium-to high-dose ICS or addition of second 
controller for patients on high-dose ICS monotherapy) see Appendix A and Appendix B) on their 
stable-dose background controller medication may occur, as indicated and according to the 
respective Investigator's medical judgment and direction.  
The proportion of all patients with any of these treatment adjustments will be compared by 
treatment arm.

9.4.2.4 Other Patient Reported Outcomes Including Health Related Quality of Life 
(Exploratory Endpoints)  
9.4.2.4.1 Paediatric Asthma Caregiver's Quality of Life Questionnaire  
The PACQLQ was designed as a 13-item questionnaire for the parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal 
guardian(s) of children ≥7 years old and <12 years of age at Randomization Visit 2), in order to 
capture the impact of the child’s asthma on their quality of life and which aspects were most 
troublesome to the parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) during the time prior to this assessment 
(see Appendix H). 
A global score is calculated ranging from 1 to 7 and a score by domain. Higher scores indicate 
better quality of life. 
9.4.2.4.2 Pediatric Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality Of Life Questionnaire–Interviewer Administered in 
patients with comorbid allergic rhinitis.  
PRQLQ-IA (see Appendix I) is an interviewer-administered questionnaire developed to measure 
HRQoL signs and symptoms that are most problematic in children ≥6 years to <12 years old, as a 
result of perennial or seasonal allergic rhinitis. The 23-item PRQLQ-IA responses are based on 
7-point Likert scale with responses ranging from 0 (not troubled) to 6 (extremely troubled). 
Higher scores indicated more health-related quality of life impairment (lower scores better). The 
instrument takes approximately 7 minutes to complete. The minimally important difference (MID) 
of 0.5 has been established as the minimal important difference indicative of a clinically 
meaningful change (12).  
9.4.2.4.3 Euro Qol (EQ-5D-Y) – for Children  
The EQ-5D-Y will be completed by children (relates to the quality of life to the child). Those who 
can read are encouraged to fill the questionnaire by themselves. Those who cannot read, fill it 
with the help of their adult caregiver (parent/caregiver). 
The EQ-5D-Y consists of 2 pages, the EQ-5D-Y descriptive system and the EQ visual analogue 
scale (VAS; see Appendix J). The descriptive system assesses 5 dimensions but using a 
child-friendly wording (mobility, looking after myself, doing usual activities, having pain or 
discomfort, feeling worried, sad or unhappy). Each dimension has 3 levels: no problems, some 
problems, a lot of problems. The respondent is asked to indicate his/her health state by ticking (or 
placing a cross) in the box against the most appropriate statement in each of the 5 dimensions. The 
EQ VAS records the respondent’s self-rated health on a vertical, visual analogue scale where the 
endpoints are labelled ‘The best health you can imagine’ and ‘The worst health you can imagine’. 
This information can be used as a quantitative measure of health outcome as judged by the 
individual respondents. Also, previously published studies by EuroQol Group members showed 
preliminary evidence of the instrument’s feasibility, reliability and validity.

STUDY PROCEDURES  
The clinical trial consists of three periods, using an add-on therapy approach to inhaled 
corticosteroid in combination with second controller medications: 
 
Screening Period (4 [±1] weeks; Visit 1)  
 
Randomized Treatment Period (52 weeks; Visits 2-28) 
 
Post-treatment Period (12 weeks; Visits 29-31) 
The study visits occur on the planned dates (relative to the first injection), as scheduled. The visit 
schedule should be adhered to within ±3 days for randomized treatment period and ±5 days for 
post-treatment follow up period. 
Spirometry should be performed at all visits as detailed in Section 9.2.2.1.1, in order to have 
spirometry performed at approximately the same time of the day at each visit throughout the 
study. 
Patients who permanently discontinue the study medication will be asked and encouraged to 
return to the clinic for all remaining study visits and participate in follow-up assessments 
according to the visit schedule until the end of the study with a ±5 day window or up to recovery 
or stabilization of any AE. At the time of permanent treatment discontinuation, patients will 
perform the early treatment discontinuation (ETD) visit with all the assessments defined for the 
EOT Visit 28. However, patients who discontinue early from treatment will not be eligible for the 
1-year long-term extension study. 
For patients who permanently discontinue the study, under exceptional circumstances where there 
is no possibility for a patient and parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) to come to the site for 
the scheduled follow-up visit, a phone contact may be made after Sponsor’s approval is given.  
During that phone contact, at least information about AEs, concomitant medication and asthma 
exacerbation events must be collected, and the schedule for these calls should still reflect the visit 
schedule.  
Patients should be reminded that sexually active female patients of reproductive potential are 
required to practice effective contraception during the entire study duration, while taking 
dupilumab and for 12 weeks post last IMP dose. 
Patients who discontinue early from treatment may be asked to return to the clinic to have 
additional ADA samples collected for analysis based on the overall assessment of antibody titers 
and clinical presentation at the time of discontinuation. 
Recommended Order of Assessments: It is recommended that the order of 
assessments/procedures (as applicable) outlined below will be adhered to by the Investigator and 
site staff for every patient at each study visit at the investigative site:

VISIT SCHEDULE  
10.1.1 Screening Period (Week -5 to Week 0, maximum 35 days prior Day 0)  
Prior to all screening assessments, the patient and the parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) must 
sign and date the Ethics Committee (EC) approved ICF/IAF. The patient assent should be 
obtained depending on his/her maturity of understanding study associated information. All 
patient(s)/parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) will receive information on the study 
objective(s) and procedures from the Investigator. 
 
 
 
 
Although the screening assessments for this study are grouped under the heading of a single visit 
in this protocol (see Section 1.2), it is possible for them to be performed over more than 1 site 
visit if necessary, as long as the screening visit window prior to randomization (Day 1) is 
respected. If certain dynamic laboratory tests do not meet the eligibility criteria, these laboratory 
assessments may be repeated, at the discretion of the Investigator, if it is judged to be likely to 
return to acceptable range for study inclusion within the screening visit window (4 [±1] weeks or 
28-35 days) prior to Day 1. In such an event the patient/parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) do 
not need to sign a new ICF/IAF and be allocated a new patient number within this same screening 
window. 
Patients that fail the initial screening for exclusion criteria, eg, concomitant medications, may be 
re-screened for study eligibility one additional time (as described in Section 8.4). For patients 
re-screened a new ICF/IAF, as applicable, must be signed by patient/parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal 
guardian(s), and a new patient number will be allocated. All of the Visit 1 procedures must be 
repeated (refer to Section 8.4 for further instructions related to re-screening).  
Patients that fail the Screening Visit due any unforseen administrative or logistic reason (eg, 
electronic diary/spirometry equipment malfunction, no IMP, etc), or patient-related/site personnel-
related unintentional errors, may be re-screened one time after approval is granted by the 
Sponsor’s clinical study director. In every case of re-screen allowance due to technical equipment 
malfunction and/or unintentional human error(s), the Study Investigator must document receipt of 
VV-CLIN-0528583 6.0

Sponsor approval and when applicable, document the site’s corrective action plan to prevent 
future occurrences. 
At Screening, parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) will be asked to provide information on 
their child’s vaccination schedule, and assess whether immunizing their children with any 
vaccination for tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis and/or seasonal trivalent/quadrivalent influenza (as 
per local medical practice) will result in vaccination during the study (see Section 9.3.1.2 for more 
information). 
10.1.2 Screening Visit 1 (Week -4 [± 1 week], or between Day -35 and Day -21)  
Following a discussion of participation in the clinical trial, written IAF/ICF (as applicable per 
national requirements) must be obtained and documented, as described in Section 12.2. The 
IAF/ICF procedure must be completed prior to any screening assessments and procedures. 
The following procedures will then be performed: 
 
Call IVRS/IWRS to assign patient number and register screening visit. 
 
Interview to collect patient demographic information, medical history, asthma-specific 
medical history (ie, family history of atopy & Ig E mediated disease [particularly 
maternal], premature birth and/or, low birthweight, exposure to tobacco smoke, recurring 
viral infections in early childhood), surgical history, prior and concomitant medications 
and menstruation status for female patients of childbearing potential. 
 
Interview to collect vaccination information and vaccination plan during the treatment 
period. 
 
Review entry criteria to assess eligibility, with special attention to assess the following: 
-

ICS (see Appendix A) in combination with a second controller (ie, LABA, LTRA, 
LAMA, or methylxanthines) for at least 3 months with a stable dose ≥1 month prior to 
Screening Visit 1.  
Note: patients requiring a third controller medication for their asthma are not 
considered eligible for this study. 
-

DEFINITION OF SOURCE DATA  
Source data is all information in original records and certified copies of original records of clinical 
findings, observations, or other activities in a clinical trial necessary for the reconstruction and 
evaluation of the trial. Source data are contained in source documents. Source documents are 
original documents, data and records such as hospital records, clinic and office charts, laboratory 
notes, memoranda, pharmacy dispensing records, recorded data from automated instruments, etc. 
All the data collected in the e-CRF should be transcribed directly from source documents. Data 
downloaded from the study-associated central laboratories, spirometry, nitric oxide measurement, 
ECG, and patient electronic diary/PEF meter will be considered source data. 
10.3 
HANDLING OF PATIENT TEMPORARY OR PERMANENT TREATMENT 
DISCONTINUATION AND OF PATIENT STUDY DISCONTINUATION  
The IMP should be continued whenever possible. In case the IMP is stopped, it should be 
determined whether the stop can be made temporarily; permanent IMP discontinuation should be 
a last resort. Any IMP discontinuation should be fully documented in the e-CRF. In any case, all 
efforts should be made to maintain the patient for the 12 weeks follow up.

10.3.1 Temporary Treatment Discontinuation With Investigational Medicinal Product(s)  
Temporary treatment discontinuation may be considered by the Investigator because of AEs.  
Reinitiation of treatment with the IMP will be done under close and appropriate clinical and/or 
laboratory monitoring once the Investigator will have considered according to his/her best medical 
judgment that the responsibility of the IMP(s) in the occurrence of the concerned event was 
unlikely and if the selection criteria for the study are still met (refer to Section 7.1 and  
Section 7.2) AE is sufficiently resolved and unlikely to recur after resuming therapy with IMP. 
In addition, the following conditions(s) will be cause for temporary treatment discontinuation: 
 
Infections or infestations that do not respond to medical treatment  
 
Any laboratory abnormality that meets temporary treatment discontinuation criteria as per 
Appendix K on Guidelines for management of specific laboratory abnormalities 
10.3.2 Permanent Treatment Discontinuation With Investigational Medicinal Product(s)  
Permanent treatment discontinuation is any treatment discontinuation associated with the 
definitive decision from the Investigator or the patient not to re-expose the patient to the IMP at 
any time. 
10.3.3 List of Criteria for Permanent Treatment Discontinuation  
The patients may withdraw from treatment with the IMP if they decide to do so, at any time and 
irrespective of the reason, or this may be the Investigator’s decision. All efforts should be made to 
document the reasons for treatment discontinuation and this should be documented in the CRF or 
e-CRF. 
Patients must be withdrawn from the study (ie, from any further investigational product or study 
procedure) for the following reasons:  
 
At their own request or at the request of their legally authorized representative (Legally 
authorized representative means an individual or judicial or other body authorized under 
applicable law to consent on behalf of a prospective patient to the patient’s participation in 
the procedure(s) involved in the research). 
 
If, in the Investigator’s opinion, continuation in the study would be detrimental to the 
patient’s well-being 
 
At the specific request of the Sponsor 
- 
Including some specific circumstances like the Yellow Fever outbreak in Brazil, where 
patients from affected areas who are not previously vaccinated with yellow-fever 
vaccine, are to be permanently discontinued from study drug (Section 8.8.1). 
 
In the event of a protocol deviation, at the discretion of the Investigator or the Sponsor 
 
Any code breaking requested by the Investigator will lead to permanent treatment 
discontinuation. 
 
Pregnancy

 
Anaphylactic reactions or systemic allergic reactions that are related to IMP and require 
treatment. 
 
Diagnosis of a malignancy during study. 
 
Any opportunistic infection, such as TB or other infections whose nature or course may 
suggest an immunocompromised status (See Appendix M). 
 
Serum ALT >3 ULN and Total Bilirubin >2 ULN (See Appendix K). 
 
Serum ALT >5 ULN if baseline ALT <2 ULN or ALT >8 ULN if baseline ALT >2 ULN 
(Appendix K). 
Any abnormal laboratory value or ECG parameter will be immediately rechecked for 
confirmation before making a decision of permanent discontinuation of the IMP for the concerned 
patient. 
10.3.4 Handling of Patients After Permanent Treatment Discontinuation  
Patients will be followed-up according to the study procedures as specified in this protocol up to 
the scheduled date of study completion, or up to recovery or stabilization of any AE to be 
followed-up as specified in this protocol, whichever comes last. Study Investigators should 
continue background therapy after treatment discontinuation, as guided by their medical 
judgment. 
For patients in Brazil, see Appendix N.  
Patients who permanently discontinue the study medication will be asked and encouraged to 
return to the clinic for study visits and participate in assessments according to the visit schedule 
until the EOS with a ± 5 day window or up to recovery or stabilization of any AEs. At the time of 
permanent treatment discontinuation, patients will perform ETD visit with all the assessments 
defined for the EOT Visit 28. Patients who permanently discontinue early from treatment will not 
be eligible for the 1-year long-term extension study.  
For patients who permanently discontinue the study, under exceptional circumstances where there 
is no possibility for a patient and parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) to come to the site for 
the scheduled follow-up visit, a phone contact may be made after Sponsor’s approval is given. 
During that phone contact, at least information about AEs, concomitant medication and asthma 
exacerbation events must be collected, and the schedule for these calls should still reflect the visit 
schedule.  
Patients who discontinue early from treatment may be asked to return to the clinic to have 
additional ADA samples collected for analysis based on the overall assessment of antibody titers 
and clinical presentation at the time of discontinuation. 
All cases of permanent treatment discontinuation should be entered by the Investigator in the 
e-CRF when considered as confirmed.

10.3.5 Procedure and Consequence for Patient Withdrawal From Study  
The patients may be withdrawn from the study at any time during the course of study if their 
parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) decide to do so, and irrespective of the reason. 
Withdrawal of consent for follow-up should be accompanied by documentation of the reason for 
withdrawal. Withdrawal of consent for treatment should be distinguished from withdrawal of 
consent for follow-up visits and from withdrawal of consent for non-patient contact follow-up, eg, 
medical records checks.  
For patients who withdraw, the patient and their parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) should be 
explicitly asked about the contribution of possible AEs to their decision to withdraw consent, and 
any AE information elicited should be documented.  
Patient(s)/parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) may withdraw consent verbally or in writing 
and, if verbal, then the site needs to document in source records that patient withdrew consent 
verbally. 
If possible, the patients who withdraw consent will be assessed using the procedures normally 
planned for the EOT visit and have EOS assessments completed at the same visit or at the last 
planned visit. 
For patients who fail to return to the site, the Investigator should make the best effort to re-contact 
the patient (eg, contacting patient’s family or private physician, reviewing available registries or 
health care databases), and to determine his/her health status, including at least his/her vital status. 
Attempts to contact such patients must be documented in the patient’s records (eg, times and dates 
of attempted telephone contact, receipt for sending a registered letter). 
A subject should only be designated as lost to follow-up, if the site is unable to establish contact 
with the patient/parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) after 3 documented attempts via 
2 different methods (phone, text, e-mail, certified letter, etc). 
The statistical analysis plan (SAP) will specify how these patients lost to follow-up for their 
primary endpoints will be considered. Patients who have withdrawn from the study cannot be 
rerandomized (treated) in the study. Their inclusion and treatment numbers must not be reused.

OBLIGATION OF THE INVESTIGATOR REGARDING SAFETY REPORTING  
10.4.1 Definitions of Adverse Events  
10.4.1.1 Adverse Event  
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation patient 
administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal 
relationship with this treatment. 
VV-CLIN-0528583 6.0

Version number: 1 
Property of the Sanofi Group - strictly confidential 
Page 101 
Protocol-defined severe asthma exacerbation events and LOAC (for detailed definitions see 
Section 9) are collected as efficacy endpoints on the e-CRF. Only asthma exacerbations which 
fulfill a seriousness criterion should be reported as an AE (as per Section 10.4.1.2).   
For this study, asthma exacerbations should be managed by the Investigators based on their 
medical judgment and applicable national/international asthma management guidelines.  
10.4.1.2 Serious Adverse Event  
A SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: 
 Results in death, or 
 Is life-threatening, or 
Note: The term “life-threatening” in the definition of “serious” refers to an event in which 
the patient was at risk of death at the time of the event; it does not refer to an event which 
hypothetically might have caused death if it were more severe. 
 Requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, or 
 Results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or 
 Is a congenital anomaly/birth defect 
 Is a medically important event 
Medical and scientific judgment should be exercised in deciding whether expedited 
reporting is appropriate in other situations, such as important medical events that may not 
be immediately life-threatening or result in death or hospitalization but may jeopardize the 
patient or may require medical or surgical intervention (ie, specific measures or corrective 
treatment) to prevent one of the other outcomes listed in the definition above. 
Note: The following list of medically important events is intended to serve as a guideline for 
determining which condition has to be considered a medically important event. The list is not 
intended to be exhaustive: 
- 
Intensive treatment in an emergency room or at home for: 
- 
Allergic bronchospasm  
- 
Blood dyscrasias (ie, agranulocytosis, aplastic anemia, bone marrow aplasia, 
myelodysplasia, pancytopenia, etc),  
- 
Convulsions (seizures, epilepsy, epileptic fit, absence, etc). 
- 
Development of drug dependence or drug abuse 
- 
ALT >3 x ULN + total bilirubin >2 x ULN or asymptomatic ALT increase >10 x ULN 
- 
Suicide attempt or any event suggestive of suicidality 
- 
Syncope, loss of consciousness (except if documented as a consequence of blood 
sampling) 
- 
Bullous cutaneous eruptions

10.4.1.3 Adverse Event of Special Interest  
An AESI is an AE (serious or nonserious) of scientific and medical concern specific to the 
Sponsor’s product or program, for which ongoing monitoring and immediate notification by the 
Investigator to the Sponsor is required. Such events may require further investigation in order to 
characterize and understand them. Adverse events of special interest may be added, modified or 
removed during a study by protocol amendment. 
 Anaphylactic reactions or systemic allergic reactions that are related to IMP and require 
treatment (refer to Appendix L for the definition of anaphylaxis). 
 Severe injection site reactions that last longer than 24 hours. 
 An infection that meets at least one of the following criteria: 
- 
Any serious infection (that meet any of the SAE criteria) 
- 
Requires parenteral (intravenous, intramuscular, SC) antimicrobial therapy.  
- 
Requires oral antimicrobial therapy for >2 weeks. 
- 
Is a parasitic infection.  
- 
Is an opportunistic infection (see list in Appendix M).  
Note: antimicrobial therapy refers to antibiotic, antiviral, and antifungal agents. 
 Significant elevation of ALT (Appendix K) 
- 
ALT >5 × ULN in patients with baseline ALT ≤2 × ULN; or 
- 
ALT >8 × ULN if baseline ALT >2 × ULN 
 Pregnancy occurring in a female patient entered in the clinical trial or in a female partner 
of a male patient entered in the clinical trial (It is an unlikely event to happen but for safety 
concerns, it is imperative to query pregnancy involving a male patient entered in the trial).  
- 
It will be qualified as an SAE only if it fulfills 1 of the seriousness criteria (see 
Section 10.4.1.2). 
- 
In the event of pregnancy in a female participant, IMP should be discontinued.  
- 
Follow-up of the pregnancy in a female participant or in a female partner of a male 
participant is mandatory until the outcome has been determined. 
 Symptomatic overdose (serious or non-serious) with IMP/NIMP 
- 
An overdose (accidental or intentional) with the IMP/NIMP is an event suspected by 
the Investigator or spontaneously notified by the patient (not based on systematic pills 
count) and defined as at least twice the intended dose during an interval of less than 
11 days. The circumstances (ie, accidental or intentional) should be clearly specified in 
the verbatim and symptoms, if any, entered on separate AE forms.

- 
An overdose (accidental or intentional) with any NIMP is an event suspected by the 
Investigator or spontaneously notified by the patient and defined as at least twice of the 
intended dose within the intended therapeutic interval. The circumstances (ie, 
accidental or intentional) should be clearly specified in the verbatim and symptoms, if 
any, entered on separate AE forms. 
Of note, asymptomatic overdose has to be reported as a standard AE. 
10.4.2 Serious Adverse Events Waived From Expedited Regulatory Reporting to 
Regulatory Authorities  
Not applicable. 
10.4.3 General Guidelines for Reporting Adverse Events  
 All AEs, regardless of seriousness or relationship to IMP/NIMP, spanning from the 
signature of the informed consent form until the end of the study as defined by the 
protocol for that patient, are to be recorded on the corresponding page(s) or screen(s) of 
the e-CRF. 
 When a safety event is categorized as a primary outcome, the event will be reported as an 
AE but will be waived from reporting to regulatory authorities provided an agreement has 
been reached with them.  
 Whenever possible, diagnosis or single syndrome should be reported instead of symptoms. 
The Investigator should specify the date of onset, intensity, action taken with respect to 
IMP, corrective treatment/therapy given, additional investigations performed, outcome, 
and his/her opinion as to whether there is a reasonable possibility that the AE was caused 
by the IMP or by the study procedure(s). In studies that require the use of 
combined/multiple IMPs/NIMPs, the GSO with input from other appropriate study team 
members must determine if the causal relationship will either be assessed for the combined 
product as a regimen or as distinct entities. The GSO must communicate this decision to 
the study team for inclusion in the protocol and AE CRF. 
 The Investigator should take appropriate measures to follow all AEs until clinical recovery 
is complete and laboratory results have returned to normal, or until progression has been 
stabilized, or until death, in order to ensure the safety of the patients. This may imply that 
observations will continue beyond the last planned visit per protocol, and that additional 
investigations may be requested by the monitoring team up to as noticed by the Sponsor. 
Patients who experience an ongoing SAE or an AESI, at the prespecified study end-date, 
should be followed until resolution, stabilization, or death and related data will be 
collected. The duration of poststudy follow-up and reporting of AEs will be specified (eg, 
until recovery). 
 When treatment is prematurely discontinued, the patient’s observations will continue until 
the end of the study as defined by the protocol for that patient. 
 Laboratory, vital signs or ECG abnormalities are to be recorded as AEs only if:

In the case of occurrence of an SAE, the Investigator or any designees must immediately: 
 
ENTER (within 24 hours) the information related to the SAE in the appropriate screens of 
the e-CRF; the system will automatically send a notification to the monitoring team after 
approval of the Investigator within the e-CRF or after a standard delay. 
 
SEND (preferably by fax or e-mail) a photocopy of all examinations carried out and the 
dates on which these examinations were performed, to the representative of the monitoring 
team whose name, fax number, and email address appear on the clinical trial protocol. 
Care should be taken to ensure that the patient's identity is protected and the patient's 
identifiers in the clinical trial are properly mentioned on any copy of a source document 
provided to the Sponsor. For laboratory results, include the laboratory normal ranges. 
 
All further data updates should be recorded in the e-CRF as appropriate, and further 
documentation as well as additional information (for laboratory data, concomitant 
medications, patient status, etc) should be sent (by fax or e-mail) to the monitoring team 
within 24 hours of knowledge of the SAE. In addition, every effort should be made to 
further document any SAE that is fatal or life-threatening within a week (7 days) of the 
initial notification.

 
A back-up plan (using a paper CRF process) is available and should be used when the 
e-CRF system does not work. 
 
Any SAE brought to the attention of the Investigator at any time after the end of the study 
for the patient and considered by him/her to be caused by the IMP with a reasonable 
possibility, should be reported to the monitoring team. 
10.4.5 Guidelines for Reporting Adverse Events of Special Interest  
For AESIs, the Sponsor must be informed immediately (ie, within 24 hours), as per SAE 
notification guidelines described in Section 10.4.4, even if not fulfilling a seriousness criterion, 
using the corresponding pages of the CRF (to be sent) or screens in the e-CRF. 
10.4.6 Guidelines for Management of Specific Laboratory Abnormalities  
Decision trees for the management of certain laboratory abnormalities by Sanofi are provided in 
Appendix K.  
The following laboratory abnormalities should be monitored, documented, and managed 
according to the related flow chart in protocol appendices.  
 Neutropenia 
 Thrombocytopenia 
 ALT increase 
 Acute renal insufficiency 
 Suspicion of rhabdomyolysis 
In addition, on treatment eosinophil counts >3000 cells/μL (3.0 giga/L) are to be reported as AEs. 
10.5 
OBLIGATIONS OF THE SPONSOR  
During the course of the study, the Sponsor will report in an expedited manner: 
 All SAEs that are both unexpected and at least reasonably related to the IMP (SUSAR), to 
the regulatory authorities, IEC/IRBs as appropriate and to the Investigators.  
 All SAEs that are expected and at least reasonably related to the IMPs to the regulatory 
authorities, according to local regulations. 
In this study, some AEs are considered related to the underlying condition and thus will not be 
considered unexpected (eg, wheezing related to asthma). 
Any other AE not listed as an expected event in the Investigator’s Brochure or in this protocol 
will be considered unexpected.

For safety, the treatment code will be unblinded by the Sponsor for reporting to the Health 
Authority of any SUSAR and reasonably associated with the use of the IMP according to either 
the judgment of the Investigator and/or the Sponsor. 
In case of a SUSAR, Sanofi Global Pharmacovigilance and Epidemiology will utilize XGRID to 
reveal medication assignment for regulatory reporting requirements for the particular case. 
The Sponsor will report all safety observations made during the conduct of the trial in the clinical 
study report. 
10.6 
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  
10.6.1 Hypersensitivity  
Allergic reaction is a potential risk associated with the administration of most therapeutic 
monoclonal antibodies. 
Allergic reactions may be defined as allergic reaction-mediated signs and symptoms experienced 
by patients during or shortly after the pharmacologic or biologic agent given. These reactions may 
present in a variety of ways, including dizziness, headache, anxiety, dyspnea, hypotension, 
tachycardia, pruritus, rash, urticaria/angioedema, flushing, nausea, or vomiting. Anaphylaxis may 
represent the most severe form of infusion reaction, but these events may also occur via non-IgE 
mediated mechanisms (eg, anaphylactoid reactions), or may occur via other immune-mediated 
mechanisms (eg, cytokine-mediated). Refer to Appendix L “Definition of Anaphylaxis”, which 
describes the clinical criteria for the diagnosis of anaphylaxis.  
Patients must be monitored for at least 30 minutes after each study-site administered 
investigational product administration for any signs or symptoms of a hypersensitivity reaction. 
Trained personnel and medications should be available to treat anaphylaxis or any severe allergic 
reaction if it occurs. Furthermore, the patients will be advised, when the IMP is administered at 
home, to self-monitor for potential signs and symptoms that may suggest a hypersensitive reaction 
for at least 30 minutes after administration. 
Anaphylactic reactions or, systemic allergic reactions that are related to IMP and require treatment 
must be reported as an AESI (within 24 hours, for further details, see AESI definition in  
Section 10.4.1.3 and Appendix L) and study medication should be permanently discontinued. 
Anti-drug antibodies and PK samples will be collected near the onset and resolution of the AESI 
for any additional analysis.  
10.6.2 Severe Injection Site Reactions  
Based on the SC mode of administration of high doses of protein and on a higher incidence of 
local injection site reactions observed at the highest IMP dose level evaluated in adults 
(300 mg weekly dose), severe injection site reactions, are considered as a potential risk. Patients 
who experience an injection site reaction must be closely monitored for the possibility of a more 
intense injection site reaction with a future injection. Any severe injection reaction that lasts over

Page 107 
24 hours will be reported as an AESI with immediate notification. IMP must be temporarily 
interrupted until the clinical study director (CSD) has evaluated the case. ADA and PK samples 
will be collected near the onset and resolution of the AESI for any additional analysis. 
Prophylactic treatment/premedication for an injection site reaction is not permitted. 
10.6.3 Infections  
Some biologic therapies have been associated with an increased risk of infection, including 
opportunistic infections. As a precautionary measure, the Investigator is required to carefully 
monitor for any signs or symptoms of infection such as, but not limited to, increased body 
temperature, malaise, weight loss, sweats, cough, dyspnea, pulmonary infiltrates, or serious febrile 
systemic illness. 
A complete diagnostic work-up should be performed (ie, cultures for fungi and/or mycobacteria 
other than tuberculosis, histopathological or cytological evaluation, antigen detection and serum 
antibody titers). Patients should be referred to an infectious disease specialist if deemed necessary 
for diagnostic work up and appropriate treatment. 
Infections or infestations that do not respond to medical treatment should have study drug 
discontinued until the infection is resolved. 
For any opportunistic infection, such as TB or other infections whose nature or course may 
suggest an immunocompromised status (See Section 10.3.2) patients must be permanently 
discontinued from study medication. 
Infections as defined in Section 10.4.1.3 should be reported as AESIs within 24 hours. 
Since dupilumab binds to IL-4Rα, preventing IL-4 and IL-13 activation of their respective 
receptors, it inhibits the T-helper 2 (Th2) cytokines production. Infections with a diversity of 
helminthic parasites elicit eosinophilia via stimulation of Th2-like lymphocyte responses. The Th2 
response is characterized by production of IL-4, IL-13 and IL-5, subsequently generating IgG1 
and IgE-secreting cells, and eliciting eosinophilia. Eosinophilia is prominent in a number of 
helminthic parasitic diseases. The eosinophilic response to helminths is determined both by the 
host's immune response and by the parasite, including its distribution, migration, and development 
within the infected host. Therefore, patients treated with dupilumab may potentially have an 
increased risk of parasitic infection. 
In order to minimize this risk, any patient with an active parasitic infection should be excluded 
from the study (see Section 7.2.3). Similarly, patients with suspected parasitic infection, or those 
at high risk of parasitic infection are also excluded, unless clinical and (if necessary) laboratory 
assessments have ruled out active infection before randomization. During the study, appearance of 
signs or symptoms (such as abdominal pain, cough, diarrhea, fever, fatigue hepatosplenomegaly) 
that could be associated with a parasitic infection should be carefully evaluated, especially if there 
is a history of parasitic exposure through recent travel to/or residence in endemic areas, especially 
when conditions are conducive to infection (eg, extended stay, rural or heavily populated informal 
settlements, lack of running water, consumption of uncooked, undercooked, or otherwise

potentially contaminated food, close contact with carriers and vectors). Subsequent medical 
assessments (eg, stool exam, blood tests) must be performed in order to rule out parasitic 
infection/infestation (see also Section 10.4.1.3).  
10.6.4 Elevated Liver Function Tests  
No preclinical and clinical data has suggested any hepatic toxicity of dupilumab; however, as a 
general consideration of clinical development, the administration of immunosuppressant or 
immunomodulating agents may represent an additional risk factor for hepatotoxicity. 
Hepatitis virus tests and liver function tests (LFT), will be performed at Screening Visit 1, prior to 
randomization to exclude those patients with high risk of hepatitis infection or severe liver injury 
from this study (see Section 7.2.3). 
In order to closely follow potential liver abnormalities, assessment of total protein, albumin, total 
bilirubin, ALT, AST, and ALP are measured as part of the clinical laboratory testing.  
Clinical laboratory testing at Screening Visit 1 adds hepatitis screen (HBs-Ag, HBs-Ab, IgM and 
total-HBc-Ab, and HVC-Ab).  
Guidance for the investigation of elevated LFTs is provided in Appendix K.

ADVERSE EVENTS MONITORING  
All events will be managed and reported in compliance with all applicable regulations, and 
included in the final clinical study report.

STATISTICAL CONSIDERATIONS  
11.1 
DETERMINATION OF SAMPLE SIZE  
The sample size of this study was based on a comparison between dupilumab versus placebo with 
regard to the primary endpoint of annualized rate of severe exacerbations over 52 weeks of 
treatment for the 3 populations of interest: patients with baseline blood eosinophils ≥300 cells/µL, 
patients with baseline blood eosinophils ≥150 cells/µL, and patients with type 2 inflammatory 
phenotype (baseline blood eosinophils ≥150 cells/μL or baseline FeNO ≥20 ppb), with assuming 
the number of severe exacerbations follows a negative binomial distribution and a randomization 
ratio of 2:1.  
The sample size calculation assumes a linear discontinuation rate (20% at 1 year), thus the 
average exposure duration for patients is 0.9 year. The assumed relative risk reductions are based 
on the results in the phase 3 asthma study EFC13579 (QUEST). 
To achieve target sample size for each of the populations stated above, approximately 402 patients 
in the overall population (268 for dupilumab and 134 for placebo) need to be randomized 
assuming approximately 86% of the randomized patients have type 2 inflammatory phenotype 
(baseline blood eosinophils ≥150 cells/μL or baseline FeNO ≥20 ppb), approximately 81% of the 
randomized patients have baseline blood eosinophils ≥150 cells/μL, and approximately 64% of 
the randomized patients have baseline blood eosinophils ≥300 cells/μL. 
Patients will be randomized (2:1 ratio) to receive dupilumab or matching placebo. After a patient 
is randomly assigned to dupilumab or matching placebo, the dosage of dupilumab or matching 
placebo for the patient, 200 or 100 mg SC once q2w, will be determined based on baseline body 
weight >30 kg or ≤30 kg, respectively.

Randomization will be stratified by ICS dose (medium-dose versus high-dose) and eosinophil 
count (<300 cells/μL versus ≥300 cells/μL) at Screening, and by region (Latin America: 
Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Chile and Mexico; Eastern Europe: Poland, Hungary, Romania, 
Lithuania, Turkey, Russia and Ukraine; Western Countries: Australia, Canada, Italy, South 
Africa, Spain, and USA).  The final definition of region may be updated in the SAP, if additional 
countries are included in the study.  If during the study, additional countries are included, 
necessary changes will be made to the randomization algorithm. These changes will be 
documented in the SAP. 
Note that if any change is made to the definition of stratum in the future, particularly, the 
definition of region, the changes in the region definition will be included in SAP and the IVRS 
will be reconfigured to ensure a correct randomization according to the new definition.

The sponsor will implement two testing hierarchies based on the two different indication labels 
for the US and US reference countries and the EU and EU reference countries. Accordingly, for 
the US and US reference countries, the testing hierarchy will start with baseline blood eosinophils 
≥300 cells/μL population; For EU and EU reference countries, the testing hierarchy will start with 
type 2 inflammatory phenotype population (patients with baseline blood eosinophils 
≥150 cells/μL or baseline FeNO ≥20 ppb). For more details about multiplicity consideration, refer 
to Section 11.4.2.3.  
The efficacy analyses will be conducted according to the treatment to which they are randomized.

STATISTICAL METHODS  
11.4.1 Extent of Study Treatment Exposure and Compliance  
The extent of study treatment exposure and compliance will be assessed and summarized by 
actual treatment received within the safety population. 
11.4.1.1 Extent of Investigational Medicinal Product Exposure  
Duration of IMP exposure is defined as:  last dose date – first dose date + 14 days, regardless of 
unplanned intermittent discontinuations. 
11.4.1.2 Compliance  
An administration is considered compliant if an injection is performed with the planned dose as 
required by the protocol. No imputation will be made for patients with missing or incomplete 
data. When an administration is given with a dose above the planned dose, the corresponding 
administration is defined as above-planned dose noncompliance. When an administration is given 
with a dose below the planned dose, the corresponding administration is defined as below-planned 
dose noncompliance. Percentage of treatment compliance, above-planned dose and below-planned 
dose non-compliance will be summarized descriptively (N, Mean, standard deviation [SD], 
Median, Min, and Max). The percentage of patients with compliance is <80% will be 
summarized.  
11.4.2 Analyses of Efficacy Endpoints  
Annualized rate of severe asthma exacerbation events during the 52 weeks is the primary efficacy 
endpoint of this study. Key secondary endpoints include change from baseline in 
pre-bronchodilator % predicted FEV1 at Weeks 12. Other secondary endpoints include change 
from baseline in pre-bronchodilator % predicted FEV1 at Weeks 2, 4, 8, 24, 36 and 52 and other 
time points in between; time to first severe exacerbation event; time to first LOAC event; change 
from baseline in other lung function measurements (absolute and relative FEV1, AM/PM PEF, 
FVC, FEF 25-75%, post-bronchodilator % predicted FEV1 at Weeks 2, 4, 8, 12, 24, 36, 52, and 
other time-points in between; change from baseline at Weeks 2, 4, 8, 12, 24, 36, 52, and other 
time-points for morning/evening asthma symptom score and nocturnal awakenings (electronic 
diary), use of reliever medication, and ACQ score. Change from baseline for PAQLQ(S)-IA 
score, PACQLQ score, PRQLQ-IA score (in those with history of allergic rhinitis) and health care 
resource utilization, will be assessed at Weeks 12, 24, 36, 52, 64; and percentage of patients 
requiring increase in dose or addition of background medication. 
In addition to the primary approach to analyze change from baseline in ACQ-IA and 
PAQLQ(S)-IA total score, supportive responder analyses will also be performed for these 
endpoints at Week 12, 24, 36, 52 and 64. Details of these analyses will be provided in the 
statistical analysis plan.

11.4.2.1 Analysis of Primary Efficacy Endpoint(s)  
The estimand of the dupilumab treatment effect compares the annualized rate of severe 
exacerbation for the patients randomized to the dupilumab and placebo arms, regardless of what 
treatment patients actually received. It assesses the benefits of the treatment policy or strategy 
relative to placebo. In this primary approach, off-treatment measurements of patients who 
prematurely discontinue treatment will be included for the analysis. Patients who permanently 
discontinue the study medication will be asked and encouraged to return to the clinic for all 
remaining study visits. If a patient stays in study till the end of 52-week treatment period, all 
severe exacerbation events that happen up to Week 52 will be included in the primary analysis, 
regardless if the patient is on-treatment or not. If a patient withdraws from study prior to the end 
of 52-week treatment period, all observed severe exacerbation events up to the last contact date 
will be included in the analysis, and the observation duration is defined as from randomization to 
the last contact date. No imputation will be performed for the unobserved events that may happen 
after study discontinuation and up to Week 52.  
The annualized rate of severe asthma exacerbation events will be analyzed using a negative 
binomial regression model to confirm the effectiveness of dupilumab. The analysis for the 
annualized severe exacerbation rate will be performed in the type 2 inflammatory phenotype, 
baseline blood eosinophils ≥300 cells/μL, baseline blood eosinophils ≥150 cells/μL, baseline 
FeNO ≥20 ppb and full ITT populations using appropriate multiplicity control. When performing 
the primary endpoint analysis in the type 2 inflammatory phenotype, baseline blood eosinophils 
≥150 cells/μL or the full ITT populations, the model will include the total number of events of 
each patient occurring during the 52 weeks as the response variable, with the treatment group, 
age, weight (≤30kg, >30kg), region, baseline eosinophil level (<300 cells/ μL, ≥300 cells/μL), 
baseline FeNO level (<20 ppb, ≥20 ppb), baseline ICS dose level (medium/high), and number of 
severe asthma exacerbation events prior to the study as covariates. When performing the primary 
endpoint analysis in the baseline blood eosinophils ≥300 cells/μL population, the baseline 
eosinophil level will be removed from the model covariates. When performing the primary 
endpoint analysis in the baseline FeNO ≥20 ppb population, the baseline FeNO level will be 
removed from the model covariates. Severe asthma exacerbation event prior to the study is 
defined as treatment with a systemic steroid (oral or parenteral) for worsening asthma at least once 
or hospitalization or emergency medical care visit for worsening asthma (as defined in this 
protocol). Log transformed observation duration will be the offset variable.   
11.4.2.1.1 Sensitivity Analysis  
A supportive analysis to assess the treatment effect of dupilumab if patients adhere to the 
treatment and background asthma medication as directed is also provided. In this approach, the 
severe exacerbation events reported after the premature treatment discontinuation will be excluded 
from the analysis. Any measurement obtained after the first permanent stepping-up of background 
asthma medication will also be excluded from the analysis. The supportive analysis will be 
performed in the type 2 inflammatory phenotype and baseline blood eosinophils ≥300 cells/μL 
populations and will use a negative binomial model with the same set of covariates as specified 
for the primary analysis in the two populations. This model will include severe exacerbation 
events occurring during the treatment epoch before any permanent stepping-up of background

asthma medication as the response variable and the log transformed duration of the treatment or 
from randomization to first permanent stepping-up of background asthma medication whichever 
is shorter will be the offset variable.  
If patients withdraw from the study before Week 52 with severe exacerbation events that may 
occur after study discontinuation will not be observed, these patients are considered as patients 
with missing data on severe exacerbation. Number, reasons and timing of the missing data will be 
summarized by treatment groups. In the primary analysis, all observed data will be used 
regardless of treatment adherence or increase of asthma background medication. No imputation 
will be conducted for the missing severe exacerbation information after a patient prematurely 
withdraws from the study up to Week 52. In addition, sensitivity analyses based on pattern 
mixture model, placebo based pattern mixture model and tipping point analysis based on the same 
negative binomial model as being used in the primary analysis may be conducted to assess the 
robustness of the conclusion of the main model. Details of these sensitivity analyses will be 
described in the SAP. 
11.4.2.1.2 Subgroup Analysis  
Subgroup analyses will be performed for the primary endpoints, as appropriate, using the same 
methods by age group, gender, region, race, baseline ICS (medium/high) dose levels, baseline 
eosinophil level, baseline FeNO level, background controller medication type at randomization, 
baseline % predicted FEV1, ACQ-7, baseline body weight, atopic medical condition, age of onset 
of asthma, and number of severe asthma exacerbation events within 1 year prior to the study. 
Detailed definition of each subgroup category will be provided in the SAP. 
The subgroup analyses (except for the baseline eosinophil levels and baseline FeNO levels) will 
be conducted for both the type 2 inflammatory phenotype population and baseline blood 
eosinophils ≥300 cells/μL population; and, the subgroup analyses for the baseline blood 
eosinophil level and baseline FeNO level will be performed in the full ITT population. 
11.4.2.2 Analyses of Secondary Efficacy Endpoints  
11.4.2.2.1 Analysis of Change from Baseline in Pre-bronchodilator % Predicted FEV1  
The key secondary endpoint, change from baseline in pre-bronchodilator % predicted FEV1 at 
Week 12, will be analyzed using a mixed-effect model with repeated measures (MMRM) 
approach. The analysis for the key secondary endpoint will be performed in the type 2 
inflammatory phenotype, baseline blood eosinophils ≥300 cells/μL, baseline blood eosinophils 
≥150 cells/μL, baseline FeNO ≥20 ppb, and full ITT populations. When performing the key 
secondary endpoint analysis in the type 2 inflammatory phenotype, baseline blood eosinophils 
≥150 cells/μL, or the full ITT populations, the model will include change from baseline as 
response variables, and for treatment, age, weight (≤30kg, >30kg), region, baseline eosinophil 
level (<300 cells/μL, ≥300 cells/μL), baseline FeNO level (<20 ppb, ≥20 ppb), baseline ICS dose 
level (medium/high), visit, treatment by-visit interaction, baseline value, and baseline-by-visit 
interaction as covariates. When performing the analysis in the baseline blood eosinophils 
≥300 cells/μL population, the baseline eosinophil level will be removed from the model

covariates. When performing the analysis in the baseline FeNO ≥20 ppb population, the baseline 
FeNO level will be removed from the model covariates. Sex, height and ethnicity will also be 
included as covariates in the models for spirometry parameters. An unstructured correlation 
matrix will be used to model the within-patient errors. Parameters will be estimated using 
restricted maximum likelihood method using the Newton-Raphson algorithm. Statistical 
inferences on treatment comparisons for the change from baseline at Weeks 12 will be derived 
from the mixed-effect model with Kenward and Roger degree of freedom adjustment approach. 
Treatment comparisons at other timepoints, 8, 12, 24, 36 and 52 week and other timepoints in 
between will also be provided from the mixed-effect model for descriptive purpose. Data up to 
Week 52 will be included as response variables. 
11.4.2.2.2 Analysis of Time-to-event Variables  
Time to first severe asthma exacerbation event (and time to first LOAC; for detailed definitions of 
primary and secondary endpoints, see Section 9.1 and Section 9.2, respectively) will be analyzed 
using a Cox regression model with time-to-event as the dependent variable, and treatment, age, 
weight (≤30kg, >30kg), region, baseline eosinophil level (<300 cells/μL, ≥300 cells/μL), baseline 
FeNO level (<20 ppb, ≥20 ppb),  baseline ICS dose level (medium/high) and number of severe 
asthma events prior to the study as covariates. The estimated hazard ratio (dupilumab versus 
placebo) along with its 95% confidence interval will be presented. The Kaplan-Meier method will 
be used to derive the proportion of patients with a severe asthma exacerbation event at Weeks 12, 
24, 36, and 52, specific to each treatment group. 
11.4.2.2.3 Analysis of Change from Baseline for Other Continuous Variables  
The change from baseline for other continuous endpoints will be analyzed using MMRM in the 
same fashion as for the endpoint of pre-bronchodilator % predicted FEV1. The covariates to be 
included are treatment, age, weight (≤30kg, >30kg), region, baseline eosinophil (<300 cells/μL, 
≥300 cells/μL), baseline FeNO level (<20 ppb, ≥20 ppb), baseline ICS dose level (medium/high), 
visit, treatment-by-visit interaction, corresponding baseline value and baseline-by-visit 
interaction. Sex and height will be included as covariates in the models, if the endpoint belongs to 
spirometry parameters. Descriptive statistics including number of patients, mean, standard error 
and LS means will be provided for each timepoint. In addition, differences in LS means, the 
corresponding 95% CI and the p-value will be derived from the MMRM model for comparison of 
dupilumab against placebo at each timepoint. 
11.4.2.2.4 Analysis of Change from Baseline for Other Categorical Variables  
Percentage of patients requiring increase in dose or addition of background medication will be 
analyzed as a categorical variable. Descriptive statistics by treatment group will be provided 
including the number and the percentage of patients in each category. Time to the first time 
requiring increase in dose or addition of background medication may also be provided by the 
Kaplan-Meier method if there are a sufficient number of patients requiring increase in dose or 
addition of background medication.

11.4.2.2.5 Sensitivity Analyses  
Sensitivity analyses will only be conducted for the key secondary endpoint of change from 
baseline in pre-bronchodilator % predicted FEV1 at Week 12. A supportive analysis will be 
provided by applying the same model for the primary analysis with only on-treatment 
measurements obtained before any permanent stepping-up of the asthma background medication.  
A sensitivity analysis based on LOCF will also be provided to assess the robustness of the 
conclusion from the primary analysis on change from baseline in pre-bronchodilator % predicted 
FEV1 at Week 12 against missing data. Details of the sensitivity analyses will be further provided 
in the SAP. 
11.4.2.2.6 Subgroup Analysis  
To assess the consistency in treatment effects across the subgroup levels, subgroup analyses used 
in the primary efficacy endpoint will also be performed for the key secondary efficacy endpoint of 
change from baseline in pre-bronchodilator % predicted FEV1 at Week 12. 
The sensitivity analysis and subgroup analysis (except for the baseline eosinophil levels and 
baseline FeNO levels) for the key secondary endpoint of change from baseline in pre-
bronchodilator % predicted FEV1 at Week 12 will be conducted in the type 2 inflammatory 
phenotype and baseline blood eosinophils ≥300 cells/μL population; and, the subgroup analyses 
for the baseline blood eosinophil level and baseline FeNO level will be performed in the full ITT 
population. 
11.4.2.3 Multiplicity Considerations  
The hypothesis testing on the primary endpoint of annualized severe exacerbation rate will be 
controlled with a two-sided type I error of 0.05 by incorporating a sequential testing procedure as 
below:  
For US and US reference countries: 
 
1st : Annualized rate of severe exacerbation events during the 52-week placebo-controlled 
treatment period based on the patients with baseline blood eosinophils ≥300 cells/µL. 
 
2nd : Annualized rate of severe exacerbation events during the 52-week placebo-controlled 
treatment period based on the patients with baseline blood eosinophils ≥150 cells/µL. 
 
3rd : Annualized rate of severe exacerbation events during the 52-week placebo-controlled 
treatment period based on the patients with type 2 inflammatory phenotype (baseline blood 
eosinophils ≥150 cells/µL or baseline FeNO ≥20 ppb). 
For EU and EU reference countries: 
 
1st: Annualized rate of severe exacerbation events during the 52-week placebo-controlled 
treatment period based on the patients with type 2 inflammatory phenotype (baseline blood 
eosinophils ≥150 cells/µL or baseline FeNO ≥20 ppb).

Multiplicity control for any secondary endpoints if considered will be specified in the SAP. 
Otherwise, nominal p-values will be provided. 
11.4.2.4 Handling of Missing Data  
If patients withdraw from the study before Week 52 with severe exacerbation events that may 
occur after study discontinuation (not being observed or without any FEV1 measurements 
available after withdrawal), these patients are considered as patients with missing data on severe 
exacerbation or on FEV1 % predicted. Number, reasons and timing of the missing data will be 
summarized by treatment groups. In the primary analysis for the primary endpoint of severe 
exacerbation, all observed data will be used regardless of treatment adherence or increase of 
asthma background medication. No imputation will be conducted for the missing severe 
exacerbation information after a patient prematurely withdraws from the study up to Week 52. In 
the primary analysis for the key secondary endpoints of change from baseline in FEV1 % 
predicted, all data up to Weeks 12 will be included in MMRM model. No additional imputation 
will be conducted. 
In addition, sensitivity analyses for the primary endpoint and the key secondary endpoints may be 
performed based on a careful examination of the reason and pattern of missing data as described 
in Section 11.4.2.1.1 and Section 11.4.2.2.5. Further details will be specified in the SAP. 
11.4.3 Analyses of Safety Data  
The summary of safety results will be presented by treatment group. All safety analyses will be 
performed on the safety population according to the following observation period definition. 
The observation period will be divided into 4 epochs: 
 
The screening epoch is defined as the time from the signed informed consent date up to the 
time prior to first administration of the IMP. 
 
The treatment epoch is defined as the time from the first administration of the IMP to the 
last administration of the IMP + 14 days 
 
The residual treatment epoch is defined as the time from the last administration of the 
IMP + 15 days to the last administration of the IMP + 98 days.  
 
The post-treatment epoch is defined as the period of time starting the day after the end of 
the TEAE period up to the end of the study (defined as last protocol planned visit or the 
resolution/stabilization of all serious adverse events and AESIs). 
The TEAE period will include both treatment and residual treatment epochs.

Page 118 
The on-study observation period is defined as the time from start of treatment until the end of the 
study (defined as last protocol planned visit or lost to follow-up or the resolution/stabilization of 
all SAE and AESI. 
All safety analyses will be performed on the safety population using the following common rules: 
 
The baseline value is defined generally as the last available value before the first dose of 
study drug. 
 
The following definitions will be applied to laboratory parameters, vital signs and ECG. 
- 
The potentially clinically significant abnormality (PCSA) values are defined as 
abnormal values considered medically important by the Sponsor according to 
predefined criteria/thresholds based on a review of the literature and defined by the 
Sponsor for clinical laboratory tests, vital signs, and ECG.  
- 
The criteria for PCSA will determine which patients had at least 1 PCSA during the 
treatment-emergent period, taking into account all evaluations performed during the 
on-treatment period, including unscheduled or repeated evaluations. The number of all 
such patients will be the numerator for the on-treatment PCSA percentage.  
11.4.3.1 Adverse Events  
Adverse event incidence tables will present by system organ class (SOC) (sorted by 
internationally agreed order), high-level group term (HLGT), high level term (HLT), and 
preferred term (PT) sorted in alphabetical order for each treatment group, the number (n) and 
percentage (%) of patients experiencing an AE. Multiple occurrences of the same event in the 
same patient will be counted only once in the tables within a treatment phase. The denominator 
for computation of percentages is the safety population within each treatment group. 
The proportion of patients with at least 1 TEAE, serious TEAE, and TEAE leading to 
discontinuation of the study will be tabulated by treatment group. In addition, TEAEs will be 
described according to maximum intensity and relation to the study drug. Serious AEs and AEs 
leading to study discontinuation that occur outside the treatment-emergent period will be 
summarized separately. 
11.4.3.1.1 Adverse Events of Special Interest

Patient reported outcome variables collected in this study include the ACQ-IA questionnaire 
ACQ-7 score, PAQLQ(S)-IA score, PACQLQ score, and PRQLQ-IA score (in those with history 
of allergic rhinitis). The change from baseline for these endpoints will be analyzed using MMRM 
in the same fashion as for the endpoint of pre-bronchodilator % predicted FEV1. The covariates to 
be included are treatment, age, weight (≤30kg, >30kg), region, baseline eosinophil level 
(<300 cells/μL, ≥300 cells/μL), baseline FeNO level (<20 ppb, ≥20 ppb), baseline ICS dose level 
(medium/high), visit, treatment-by-visit interaction, corresponding baseline value and baseline-
by-visit interaction. Descriptive statistics including number of patients, mean, standard error and 
LS means will be provided for each timepoint. In addition, differences in LS means, the 
corresponding 95% CI and the p-value will be derived from the MMRM model for comparison of 
dupilumab against placebo at each timepoint. Note that PRQLQ-IA score (in those with history of 
allergic rhinitis) will only be analyzed for patients with the history of allergic rhinitis.

requirements and with Sanofi public disclosure commitments.  
12.2 
INFORMED CONSENT  
The Investigator (according to applicable regulatory requirements), or a person designated by the 
Investigator, and under the Investigator's responsibility, should fully inform the patient who is 
≥6 years and his/her parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) of all pertinent aspects of the clinical 
trial including the written information giving approval/favorable opinion by the Ethics Committee 
(IRB/IEC). All patients/parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) should be informed to the fullest 
extent possible about the study, in their language and in terms they are able to understand. 
It is the responsibility of the Investigator or designee (if acceptable by local regulations) to obtain 
written informed assent (IA) from each patient ≥6 years of age (or above an age determined by the 
IRB/IEC and in according with the local regulations and requirements), and written ICF from 
each patient’s parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s), prior to the patient’s participation in the 
study, and prior to initiating any screening procedures. The written IAF/ICF should be signed and 
dated by the patient(s) and parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s), respectively. 
Local law must be observed in deciding whether 1 or both parents/guardians consent is required.  
If only 1 parent or guardian signs the consent form, the Investigator must document the reason the 
other parent or guardian did not sign.  The patient may also be required to sign and date the ICF as 
determined by the IRB/IEC and in accordance with the local regulations and requirements.   
 
Patient(s)/parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal guardian(s) who can write but cannot read will have 
the assent/consent form read to them before writing their name on the form

authority) of an amendment, as required by local regulation, except where necessary to eliminate 
an immediate hazard(s) to clinical trial patients, or when the change(s) involves only logistical or 
administrative aspects of the trial. Any change agreed upon will be recorded in writing, the 
written amendment will be signed by the Investigator and by the Sponsor and the signed 
amendment will be filed with this clinical trial protocol. 
Any amendment to the clinical trial protocol requires written approval/favorable opinion by the 
IRB/IEC prior to its implementation, unless there are overriding safety reasons. 
In case of substantial amendment to the clinical trial protocol, approval from the health authorities 
(competent regulatory authority) will be sought before implementation. 
In some instances, an amendment may require a change to the ICF. The Investigator must receive 
an IRB/IEC approval/favorable opinion concerning the revised ICF prior to implementation of the 
change and patient signature should be re-collected if necessary.

(1) CYP substrates with narrow therapeutic range refers to drugs whose exposure-response relationship 
indicates that small changes in their exposure levels by the concomitant use of CYP inhibitors or inducers 
may lead to either serious safety concerns (eg, Torsades de Pointes) or loss of therapeutic effect.  
(2) Because a number of CYP3A substrates (eg, darunavir, maraviroc) are also substrates of P-gp, the 
observed increase in exposure could be due to inhibition of both CYP3A and P-gp.  
(3) Withdrawn from the United States market because of safety reasons  
(4) Prohibited medication during the study

Suspicion of rhabdomyolysis is to be recorded as an AE only if at least 1 of the criteria in the 
general guidelines for reporting adverse events in Section 10.4.3 is met. 
If Increase in CPK (expressed in ULN)
> 3 ULN
Repeat immediately the count.
If confirmed, inform the local monitor and
INVESTIGATE for the origin:
- PERFORM:
•
ECG
•
CPK-MB -MM 
•
Troponin
•
Creatinine
•
Iono (k+, Ca2+)
•
Transaminases + Total and conjugated bilirubin
•
Myoglobin (serum and urines)
- COLLECT/STORE one sample following handling procedures described in PK sections (for 
studies with PK sampling) and freeze one serum sample (5 mL) on Day 1 (cessation of 
investigational medicinal product). 
- INTERVIEW the patient about a recent intensive muscular effort, trauma, convulsions, electrical 
injury, injury or stress to the skeletal muscle, multiple intramuscular injections, recent surgery, 
concomitant medications, consumption of alcohol, morphine, cocaine.
- SEARCH for alternative causes to cardiac or muscular toxicity, ie: stroke, pulmonary infarction, 
dermatomyositis or polymyositis, convulsions, hypothyroidism, delirium tremens, muscular 
dystrophies.
If either the cardiac origin or the 
rhabdomyolysis is confirmed or if CPK 
> 10 ULN:
1. DISCONTINUE Investigational 
Medicinal Product administration
2. MONITOR CPK every 3 days for the 
first week then once weekly until return 
to normal or for at least 3 months
3. HOSPITALIZATION should be 
considered
If the cardiac origin or the rhabdomyolysis is 
ruled out and if CPK 10 ULN:
MONITOR CPK every 3 days for the first week 
then once weekly until return to normal or for 
at least 3 months
Muscular symptoms (myalgia, pain, weakness, 
dark urines)

Country specific requirements  
Amendment for Brazil dated 02-Feb-2018 
Section 8.8.1 Prohibited medication (Section 8.8.1) 
In Brazil, due to the Yellow Fever outbreak, any patient who is not previously vaccinated with the 
yellow-fever vaccine (in the outbreak affected area) should be unblinded and should be 
permanently discontinued from treatment with study drug (Section 10.3.3). Patients who 
discontinue IMP must continue to be followed in the study until EOS (Section 10.3.4). 
Section 9.3.1.1.1 Sampling time (Section 9.3.1.1.1) 
Predose blood samples will be collected for determination of functional dupilumab concentration 
in serum and anti-dupilumab antibodies (including neutralizing antibodies) on days designated in 
the Study Flow Chart (see Section 1.2 as well as Section 10.3.4, as needed for Brazil). 
Section 10.3.3 List of criteria for permanent discontinuation (Section 10.3.3) 
 
At the specific request of the Sponsor 
- 
Including some specific circumstances like the Yellow Fever outbreak in Brazil, where 
patients from affected areas who are not previously vaccinated with yellow-fever 
vaccine, are to be permanently discontinued from study drug (see below). 
Section 10.3.4 Handling of patients after permanent treatment discontinuation  
(Section 10.3.4) 
In Brazil, any patient who is permanently discontinued from treatment with study drug due to the 
Yellow Fever outbreak must complete all EOT procedures. These patients should continue to be 
followed in the study until EOS. Specific blood samples for ADA, dupilumab PK, and 
pre-vaccination Yellow Fever antibody titer should be performed, when possible, prior to 
vaccination in patients who received dupilumab. Post-vaccine blood samples for ADA, PK, and 
Yellow Fever antibody titers will also be collected following the appropriate interval (4-6 weeks 
after vaccination and may be extended up to 8 weeks). A specific ICF must be signed prior to 
collection of these samples (See below). 
Brazilian patients who are discontinued early from treatment due to the Yellow Fever outbreak 
will remain eligible for the 1 year long term extension study. 
Section 12.2 Informed consent (Section 12.2) 
For Brazil, a country-specific ICF will be issued for the collection of additional blood samples for 
the assessment of pre and post Yellow Fever vaccination titers, dupilumab PK, and ADA levels. 
Refusal to sign the additional ICF will not impact the patient's ability to receive Yellow Fever 
vaccination.

Statistical considerations 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The sample size of this study was based on a 
comparison between dupilumab versus placebo with 
regard to the primary endpoints of annualized rate of 
severe exacerbations at Week 52. Assuming the 
number of severe exacerbations follows a negative 
binomial distribution with a dispersion parameter of 
1.5, a placebo annualized rate of exacerbations being 
1.0, a randomization ratio of 2:1, with 294 randomized 
patients (196 for dupilumab and 98 for matching 
placebo group), the study will have approximately 
90% power to detect a 50% relative risk reduction (ie, 
annualized rate of 0.5 for the dupilumab group) in the 
annualized rate of severe exacerbations at the 2-
tailed significance level of α=0.05. This calculation 
assumes a linear discontinuation rate (20% at 1 year), 
thus the average exposure duration for patients is 0.9 
year.  
Patients will be randomized (2:1 ratio) to receive 
dupilumab or matching placebo. After a patient is 
randomly assigned to dupilumab or matching 
placebo, the dosage of dupilumab or matching 
placebo for the patient, 200 or 100 mg SC once q2w, 
will be determined based on bw >30 kg or ≤30 kg, 
respectively. 
Randomization will be stratified by ICS dose 
(medium-dose versus high dose) and eosinophil 
count (<300 cells/μL versus ≥300 cells/μL) at 
Screening, and by region.

Change: Increase in study 
sample size. 
Reason for change: Due to 
an update on the 
assumptions used to perform 
the sample size calculation. 
The original effective size 
assumption was based on 
the observed risk reduction in 
the dupilumab Phase 2b 
study in adult patients with 
uncontrolled persistent 
asthma. This assumption is 
being updated based on the 
effect size observed in the 
recently concluded Phase 3 
dupilumab clinical trial in 
adult and adolescent patients 
with uncontrolled persistent 
asthma. The sample size is 
adjusted to maintain 90% 
power based on a more 
accurate estimation of 
treatment effect from a larger 
clinical study.

Amendment protocol 01 dated 10-Mar-2017 
 
FeNO results  
In section: 9.4.2.2  
Rationale: 
- 
Blinding of FeNO results as described in Section 9.4.2.2 was determined to be 
operationally not feasible. Therefore, the FeNO value will not be blinded to 
investigators or site personnel, as well as patient(s)/parent(s)/caregiver(s)/legal 
guardian(s).  
 
 
Live attenuated vaccines  
In section(s): Sections 7.2.3 and 8.8.1  
Rationale: 
- 
In order to clearly define the interval between live (attenuated) vaccines administration 
and IMP administration and be consistent with other dupilumab trials, an Exclusion 
Criterion E27 will be added to clarify that live (attenuated) vaccines are not allowed 
within 4 weeks before the baseline visit. Section 8.8.1 Prohibited Concomitant 
medication will be rewritten to clarify that live (attenuated) vaccines are allowed in the 
screening period if taken at least 4 weeks prior to baseline visit.  
 
 
PAQLQ Domains  
In section: 9.2.2.4.2  
Rationale: 
-

 
PAQLQ (S)-IA Periodicity  
In section(s): Clinical Trial Summary (Secondary Endpoints Efficacy) and Section 11.4.2   
Rationale: 
- 
The periodicity of PAQLQ(S)-IA was incorrectly marked as Weeks 2, 4, 8, 12, 24, 36, 
52. Its correct periodicity is at Weeks 12, 24, 36, 52, 64.

 
Inhaled Corticosteroids Doses 
In section: Appendix A  
Rationale: 
- 
Medium and high doses of beclometasone dipropionate (CFC and HFA) and 
budesonide (DPI) are inconsistent with GINA Guidelines 2015. Therefore, the table 
will be updated with the correct values for medium and high dose of beclometasone 
dipropionate (CFC and HFA) and budesonide (DPI). 
 
 
PEF meter 
In Section: 9.2.2.2.1  
Rationale: 
- 
AM and PM time frames were extended by 2 hours, ie, to end at 11:59 AM and 
11:59 PM, respectively.  
- 
Albuterol/salbutamol or levoalbuterol/levosalbutamol reliever medication are the only 
medications to be withheld for at least 6 hours before PEF measurement, if possible. 
 
 
IMP compliance check 
In section: 10.1.10 
Rationale: 
- 
IMP compliance must be verified at these visits. This information is missing in the 
protocol. 
 
 
Informed Assent Form (IAF) for girls who started menstruating 
In section: 1.2 and 12.2 
Rationale: 
- 
Clarified that as soon as the investigator is notified that the first menses of a female 
patient have occurred (at any time during this study) a separate IAF must be obtained 
from such female patients at the earliest visit to the site. This information is missing in 
the protocol.

- 
New Zealand is not a part of the study and should be removed. 
 
 
Template 
In section: Appendix K 
Rationale:  
- 
Instructions from the protocol template, which should be removed were left in the final 
version of the protocol in error. 
- 
Added clarification of PK sample blood volume for pediatric study. 
 
 
Vaccination Response 
In section: 10.1.2 
Rationale: 
- 
Vaccination information and vaccination plan during the treatment period should be 
collected for all patients at screening, because the vaccination response is not an 
optional assessment. 
 
 
Adverse Event of Special Interest 
In section: 10.4.1.3 
Rationale: 
- 
An error was noted in the asthma pediatric study EFC14153 study where “suicidal 
behavior” was noted as AESI.  Suicidal behavior was an AESI for atopic dermatitis 
(AD) trials; however, there was no signal of these events in patients treated with 
dupilumab. Therefore, suicidal behavior was removed from the AESI.

Term ‘Slum areas’  
In section: 10.6.3 
Rationale: 
- 
An alternative terminology, "heavily populated informal settlements" will be used for 
the term ‘slum areas’. 
 
 
Typographical Errors 
In section: 1.1 (Overview of Study Design) schematic picture 
Rationale: 
- 
To correct a typographical error in subject number ‘195’ (correct number ‘196’) in the 
schematic picture of the overall study design in the original final protocol. 
- 
To add footnote about background therapy with inhaled corticosteroids. 
 
In section: 1.2 (Study flowchart) footnote U 
Rationale: 
- 
Although correctly found in the study flowchart at Week 6, in footnote ‘U’ it is written 
that DNA sampling collection is to be performed at Week 0. 
- 
Blood DNA can be collected any time during the protocol, taking into consideration 
blood collection volume limitation, if any, at the time. 
In section: 7.2.3 
Rationale: 
- 
Deleted E23 (about previous history of malignancy), because it is a duplicate of E6 
(about history of malignancy). 
- 
Clarified E25 Liver injury related criteria 
- 
Corrected E26 Abnormal lab values at Screening 
 
In addition, other minor changes were implemented.
