About this study

Official title: Open-Label Phase 1 Study to Assess the Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Safety of 2 and 6 µg/kg Sargramostim (SH L 04023) Administered Subcutaneously Once Daily for 4 Weeks, and Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Phase 2 Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of 6 µg/kg Sargramostim (SH L 04023) Administered Subcutaneously Once Daily for 8 Weeks in Patients With Active Crohn's Disease (Sargramostim Phase 1/2 Study)

The purpose of this study is to assess the tolerability, pharmacokinetics and safety of 2 and 6 micro g/kg/day sargramostim administered subcutaneously once daily for 4 weeks, and to assess the efficacy and safety of 6 micro g/kg/day sargramostim administered subcutaneously once daily for 8 weeks in comparison with placebo, in patients with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Sargramostim (Leukine) in people with Crohn's Disease, run by Genzyme, a Sanofi Company.

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 2 inclusion and 4 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Dec 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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

What does this phase mean?

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 was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

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?

CDAI [Crohn's Disease Active Index] improvements (time frame: Baseline, 1w, 2w, 4w, 6w, 8w, 10w, 12w). 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 4 Dec 2013.
