Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child

Inclusion Criteria: Patients must meet all of the following criteria to be eligible for enrollment into the study:

  • Children ages 2 to 17 receiving chemotherapy for hematological/oncological diseases.
  • Patients must have documented MBL levels <300 ng/mL in serum as evaluated in the screening protocol.
  • Fever defined as an oral temperature equivalent of >100.4°F (38°C).

  • Patients with moderate or severe liver disease, as defined by:

AST or ALT >5 times upper limit of normal (ULN) OR Total bilirubin >2.5 times ULN.

  • Patients with poor venous access that would preclude intravenous drug delivery or multiple blood draws.
  • Current participation in another clinical study with an investigational agent and/or use of an investigational drug (not including investigational use of an FDA approved drug) in the 30 days before scheduled administration of rhMBL.
  • Known allergic reactions to MBL or other human plasma products.
  • Patients on hemodialysis unable to tolerate the volume of IV fluid on non-dialysis days.

About this study

Official title: A Multi-Center Study of the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Dose Escalation of Intravenous Recombinant Human Mannose-Binding-Lectin (rhMBL) in MBL Deficient Pediatric Hematology/Oncology Patients With Fever and Neutropenia

The goal of this clinical research study is to find the dose of EZN-2232 that can be given to MBL deficient pediatric cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. The pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and safety of the study drug will also be studied.

Read the detailed description

MBL deficient patients will be randomized in a ratio of 1:1 to receive a single dose of either 0.5 mg/kg or 1.0 mg/kg of intravenous rhMBL. A total of 24 patients will be treated in each of the rhMBL arms, (12 in the 0.5 mg/kg and 12 in the 1.0 mg/kg. All patients are to receive anti-infectious prophylactic supportive therapy as per institutional standards

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Intravenous recombinant human mannose binding lectinDrug

    Intravenous(i.v.) administration for one dose. Patients will be randomized to one of three cohorts: 0 mg/kg; 0.5 mg/kg, or 1.0 mg.kg

  • Intravenous recombinant human mannose binding lectinDrug

    Intravenous(i.v.) administration for one dose. Patients will be randomized to one of three cohorts: 0 mg/kg; 0.5 mg/kg, or 1.0 mg.kg

What is being measured

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

  1. Determine the safety and tolerability of intravenous rhMBL administered at dosages of 0.5 and 1.0 mg/kg to MBL deficient pediatric hematology/oncology patients during episodes of fever and neutropenia.

    Measured: 1 month

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Determine the PK profile of intravenous rhMBL as a single dose escalation cohort design in MBL deficient pediatric oncology patients during episodes of fever and neutropenia.

    Measured: 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Intravenous recombinant human mannose binding lectin in people with Cancer and Hematologic Diseases, run by Enzon Pharmaceuticals, Inc..

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Sep 2012. 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. 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 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.

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 withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Determine the safety and tolerability of intravenous rhMBL administered at dosages of 0.5 and 1.0 mg/kg to MBL deficient pediatric hematology/oncology patients during episodes of fever and neutropenia. (time frame: 1 month). 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 5 Sep 2012; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
