About this study

Official title: An Open-labelled, International, Multicenter, Dose Escalating, Phase I/II Study of SPC2996,an LNA Antisense Molecule Against Bcl-2, in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia

The purpose of this study is to determine whether SPC2996 is effective and safe in the treatment of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia (CLL)

Read the detailed description

Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia (CLL) is the most common leukaemia in adults in the US and most of Western Europe. Many patients suffering from CLL have tumour cells expressing high amounts of Bcl-2 protein. Since over expression of Bcl-2 inhibits apoptosis, it is possible that this gene participates in the pathogenesis of CLL. By lowering the Bcl-2 protein in these tumour cells the cells may go into apoptosis due to changed balance in pro- and anti apoptotic proteins and thereby it might be possible to induce a tumour response.

The study is an open-labelled, international, multicenter, dose escalating phase I/II study where patients receive 6, 3, 2 or 1 dose(s) of SPC2996, a LNA antisense molecule against Bcl-2, over a period of up to 2 weeks, and are followed for 6 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing SPC2996 in people with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, run by Santaris Pharma A/S at 12 sites in 4 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Feb 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites in France, United Kingdom, Denmark, United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in Bcl-2 m-RNA levels (time frame: from Day 0 to Day 13). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Feb 2011; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 3 Nov 2026.
