Trial summary

SLE(Systemic Lupus Erythematosus) is an autoimmune disese that primarily occurs in women(9:1 compared to men). The disease is activated by genetic and environmental factors, yet the female gender is the strongest risk factor. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Phase II Study of Efficacy of ICI 182,780 (Faslodex) in the Treatment of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: Clinical, Serologic, Molecular

SLE(Systemic Lupus Erythematosus) is an autoimmune disese that primarily occurs in women(9:1 compared to men). The disease is activated by genetic and environmental factors, yet the female gender is the strongest risk factor. The sex hormone estrogen has been proven in the past to be an enhancer of the immune response. Estrogen serves as a ligand for two specific receptor proteins. Lab studies that we have already done have shown estrogen significantly increases these two ligands in the T cells from SLE females, but not in T cells from normal women. These estrogen-dependent increases are blocked by the estrogen receptor antagonist ICI 182,780. The objective of this research is to investigate if ICI 182,780 alters disease progression and/or activity in females with SLE and may provide a new treatment for women with SLE. This is based on previous work we have done.

Read the detailed description

This is a double-blind study, involving (goal) 20 women with SLE. All will be premenopausal with regular menstrual cycles. Patients will meet at least four of the criteria of the American Colleges of Rheumatology for classification of SLE. Disease activity will be determined by SLE disease activity index called SLEDAI scores. Patients can take meds to control their disease, but none will be able to take birth control pills/patches, or hormone replacement at the time of the study. The pharmacy will be in control of the blind and 10 will get ICI 182,780 (Faslodex) and 10 will get placebo. Lab will be drawn before each injection and a bone density will be done on injection 1 and 12, the injections will be monthly, depending on the female's cycle. A visit will be done at month 15 to evaluate SLEDAI, and draw lab as well. Each vs will have a SLEDAI done with the clinical evaluation. The injection is 250mg/5cc, which is divided into 2 injections of 2.5cc each, given IM, on day 4-10 of each cycle.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing ICI 182,780 (Faslodex) in people with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, run by The Center for Rheumatic Disease, Allergy, & Immunology at 1 site in United States.

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 3 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Sep 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in 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 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 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?

Improved SLEDAI. The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 22 Sep 2009.
