Detailed description:

Arms:
arm 1: This dose adaptive study is planned to treat up to 20 patients in each starting dose cohort, with a maximum of three starting dose cohorts. The doses planned to be assessed are 1, 2, 4, 6 and 8 mg, however, the maximum starting dose will be 4 mg. The starting dose of the first cohort will be 1 mg; the first cohort will include at least five patients. After the first fifteen patients have been treated for 4 weeks, the results will be reviewed by a Data Review Committee. An extension phase (Part B) is planned for those subjects completing the initial study and fulfilling specific eligibility criteria (symptoms control, willingness to participate, safety and tolerability).

Interventions: intervention 1: BIM 23A760
Intervention descriptions: intervention 1: BIM 23A760 is a solution at a concentration of 5 mg/mL ready for subcutaneous injection.
