Trial summary

ALT-2074 (BXT-51072) belongs to a class of drugs called "glutathione peroxidase mimics." ALT-2074 works by imitating a substance produced in various tissues in the body, which prevents damage of the heart and blood vessels. Diabetic patients with a haptoglobin 2-2 genotype have poor cardiovascular clinical outcomes. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Study to Evaluate the Safety, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of ALT 2074 in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes Who Have a Haptoglobin Type 2-2 Genotype and Coronary Artery Disease

ALT-2074 (BXT-51072) belongs to a class of drugs called "glutathione peroxidase mimics." ALT-2074 works by imitating a substance produced in various tissues in the body, which prevents damage of the heart and blood vessels. Diabetic patients with a haptoglobin 2-2 genotype have poor cardiovascular clinical outcomes.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, the pharmacokinetic profile and characterize the effect on biomarkers of inflammation and oxidative stress of repeat doses of ALT 2074. Subjects must be diabetic, with evidence of coronary artery disease and a haptoglobin 2-2 genotype

Read the detailed description

Subjects will be male and female, 18 to 75 years old, with Type 2 diabetes mellitus, a documented or suspected history of coronary artery disease, and a Haptoglobin type 2-2 (Hp 2-2) genotype. Subjects on prescribed anti-diabetic and coronary artery disease medications may continue to take their medications throughout the study.

Subjects who qualify will receive active drug (ALT-2074 20 mg, 40 mg or 80 mg) or placebo every 8 hours for 28 days. There will be three sequential cohorts of increasing doses of active drug. There will be 2 follow-up visits (Days 35 and 42). Blood and urine tests for safety (chemistry and hematology), pharmacokinetics and relevant biomarkers to measure inflammation and oxidative stress will be performed throughout the study. Electrocardiograms and 24-hour Holter monitoring will also be performed at various time points during the study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing ALT-2074 in people with Diabetes and Coronary Artery Disease, run by Synvista Therapeutics, Inc at 2 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 6 inclusion and 0 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 Jul 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 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?

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?

Biomarkers of inflammation and oxidative stress (time frame: 28 days). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00491543, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Jul 2008.
