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.

  • Ages 2 to 16 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child

Who may be able to join

  • The subject is between 2 and 16 years old, of either sex, belonging to any ethnic group, and above a minimum weight of 10 kg (this weight is based on the amount of blood required for testing).
  • The subject has a primary immunodeficiency disease, (e.g., common variable immunodeficiency, X-linked and autosomal forms of agammaglobulinemia, hyper-IgM syndrome, Wiskott-Aldrich Syndrome).
  • The subject has been receiving licensed IGIV replacement therapy at a dose that has not changed by + 50% of the mean dose on a mg/kg basis for at least 3 months before study entry and has maintained a trough level at least 300 mg/dL above baseline serum IgG levels.
  • Trough levels of IgG, dose of IGIV, and treatment intervals for the last 2 consecutive routine IGIV treatments must be documented for each subject before the first infusion in this study can be administered.
  • If a subject is an adolescent female (> 12 years of age) who is or becomes sexually active, she must have a negative result on a pregnancy test (HCG-based assay).
  • The subject, if old enough (generally 6 years to 16) has signed an informed Child Assent form and the subject's parent or legal guardian has signed an informed consent form, both approved by the Institutional Review Board.

Who cannot join

  • Adult patient (> 17 years old).
  • The subject has a history of any severe anaphylactic reaction to blood or any blood-derived product.
  • The subject is known to be intolerant to any component of the products, such as sorbitol (i.e., intolerance to fructose).
  • The subject has selective IgA deficiency or has demonstrable antibodies to IgA.
  • The subject is currently receiving, or has received, any investigational agent within the prior 3 months.
  • The subject has been exposed to blood or any blood product or derivative within the last 6 months, other than a commercially available IGIV.
Show all 22Show fewer
  • The adolescent subject is pregnant or is nursing.
  • The subject, at screening, has levels greater than 2.5 times the upper limit of normal as defined at the central laboratory for pediatric patients of any of the following:
  • ALT
  • AST
  • LDH
  • The subject has a severe pre-existing renal impairment (defined by serum creatinine greater than 2 times the ULN or BUN greater than 2.5 times the ULN for that laboratory, or any subject who is on dialysis) or any history of acute renal failure.
  • The subject has a history of DVT or thrombotic complications of IGIV therapy.
  • The subject suffers from any acute or chronic medical condition (e.g., renal disease or predisposing conditions for renal disease, coronary artery disease, or protein losing state) that, in the opinion of the Investigator, may interfere with the conduct of the study.
  • The subject has an acquired medical condition such as lymphocytic leukemia, chronic or recurrent neutropenia (ANC less than 1000), or AIDS known to cause secondary immune deficiency, or is s/p hematopoetic stem cell transplantation.
  • The subject is receiving the following medication:
  • Systemic corticosteroids (long-term, i.e., not intermittent or burst, daily, > 1 mg of prednisone equivalent/kg/day). Topical steroids (ie- nasal, inhaled for asthma, and/or skin preparations for eczema) are not exclusionary.
  • Immunosuppressive drugs
  • Immunomodulatory drugs
  • The subject has non-controlled arterial hypertension (systolic blood pressure > 160 mm Hg and/or diastolic blood pressure > 100 mm Hg).
  • The subject has anemia (hemoglobin < 10 g/dL) at screening.
  • The subject and/or parent/legal guardian of the subject is unlikely to adhere to the protocol requirements of the study or is likely to be uncooperative or unable to provide from the patient a storage serum sample at the screening visit. (Please note, a pre-treatment serum sample to be stored at -94° F (-70º C) for possible future testing is absolutely required).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Flebogamma 5% DIF in people with Primary Immune Deficiency Disease, run by Instituto Grifols, S.A. at 7 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 22 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 Feb 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 8 Dec 2016). 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?

Serious Bacterial Infections. (time frame: 12 months). 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 2 Feb 2017.
