About this study

Official title: A Phase I/II Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Single-Dose, Dose Escalation Study of KB001 in Cystic Fibrosis Patients Infected With Pseudomonas Aeruginosa

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single dose of KB001 in Cystic Fibrosis patients infected with Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa)

Read the detailed description

CF patients often have lung infections. Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa) is the most significant bacteria in CF, with up to 80% of CF patients eventually becoming infected. These patients are often treated with antibiotics with variable results. This study will examine the impact of a single-dose of an investigational drug, KB001, on Pa bacteria in the CF lung.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing KB001 in people with Cystic Fibrosis, run by Humanigen, Inc. at 11 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 6 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 9 Jun 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined 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.

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 8 Aug 2011). 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?

The Safety and Tolerability of a Single-dose of KB001. (time frame: Day 28). 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 NCT00638365, 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 9 Jun 2014.
