About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Open-label Study to Assess the Safety and Tolerability of Multiple Dose Levels and Multiple Dosing Regimens of AT2101 in Adult Patients With Type 1 Gaucher Disease Currently Receiving Enzyme Replacement Therapy

This study was conducted to test the safety and tolerability of afegostat tartrate in participants with type 1 Gaucher disease already receiving enzyme replacement therapy.

Read the detailed description

This was a Phase 2, open-label study in participants with Gaucher disease, a lysosomal storage disorder. Afegostat tartrate (also known as AT2101 or isofagomine tartrate) is designed to act as a pharmacological chaperone by selectively binding to misfolded β-glucocerebrosidase (GCase) and helping it fold correctly, intended to restore GCase activity. The study consisted of a 14-day screening period, a 28-day treatment period, and a 7-day wash-out period. Participants received 1 of 4 dosing regimens for afegostat tartrate.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number Of Participants Who Experienced Severe Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

    TEAEs were defined as any adverse event (AE) with a start date on or after administration of the study drug (on Day 1). A severe AE was defined as an AE that was incapacitating and required medical intervention. The number of participants who experienced 1 or more severe TEAEs after dosing on Day 1 through 7 days after the last dose of study drug (Day 35) is presented. A summary of serious and all other non-serious AEs regardless of causality is located in the Reported Adverse Events module.

    Measured: Day 1 (after dosing) through Day 35

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change From Baseline To End Of Treatment In Beta-glucocerebrosidase (GCase) Levels In White Blood Cells (WBC)

    GCase is a biomarker used to assess the PD effects of afegostat tartrate. Blood samples were collected to assess GCase levels in WBC. The baseline value was defined as the last non-missing value before the start of study drug.

    Measured: Baseline, Day 28

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Afegostat tartrate in people with Gaucher Disease, Type 1 and Type 1 Gaucher Disease, run by Amicus Therapeutics at 10 sites 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 5 inclusion and 10 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 25 Sep 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 15 Aug 2018). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number Of Participants Who Experienced Severe Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) (time frame: Day 1 (after dosing) through Day 35). 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 25 Sep 2018.
