  • Crohn's disease of at least 6 months' duration.
  • Endoscopic and/or histopathological and/or radiological documentation consistent with Crohn's disease obtained preferably within 24 months of screening.
  • Crohn's disease involving the colon and/or the ileum.
  • CDAI score from 220 to 400 (inclusive) at the time of the Screening visit. The CDAI must have remained between 220 and 400 after the 1-week Screening period for the patient to be eligible.
  • Patients may have been receiving oral or topical 5-ASA compounds provided the dosage had been stable for at least the 14-day period before the Screening visit. Patients were to be maintained on the 5-ASA compound at a constant dose at least through Day 57.

Who cannot join

  • Patients with evidence of current GI infection (bacterial or parasitic) or significant infection within 45 days of the screening visit.
  • Patients with a serious underlying disease other than Crohn's disease including presence or history of malignancy (except basal cell carcinoma) and histological evidence of dysplasia.
  • Patients with significantly impaired liver or renal function. This includes those with established chronic liver disease including hepatitis B or C.
  • Patients with the laboratory abnormalities
  • Patients using ethanol or consuming illicit drugs which, in the investigator's opinion, may interfere with compliance with the study procedures.

About this study

Official title: Phase 2 Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Double-Blind, Parallel Group Study to Determine the Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Effectiveness of LDP-02 in Patients With Mildly to Moderately Active Crohn's Disease

The objectives of this study were to assess the safety and tolerability of LDP-02 in patients with active Crohn's disease who were not receiving corticosteroids or immunosuppressives, to assess the ability of LDP-02 to reduce Crohn's disease activity, and to obtain pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic(PD)information for LDP-02 in patients with active Crohn's disease.

What participants receive

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

  • LDP-02Drug

    Also called MLN0002, MLN02

    Each patient in arms 2 \& 3 received a single IV dose of study drug at 0.5 or 2.0 mg/kg LDP-02 on Days 1 and 29.

  • PlaceboDrug

    Also called MLN0002, MLN02

    Each patients in arm 1 received a single IV dose of placebo on Days 1 and 29.

What is being measured

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

  1. The primary outcome measure was the proportion of patients with a clinical response, defined as a reduction from baseline in the CDAI score of at least 70 points at Day 57

    Measured: Days 1-57

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing LDP-02 in people with Crohn's Disease, run by Millennium Pharmaceuticals, Inc..

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 9 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 Apr 2008. 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. 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 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?

The primary outcome measure was the proportion of patients with a clinical response, defined as a reduction from baseline in the CDAI score of at least 70 points at Day 57 (time frame: Days 1-57). 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 NCT00655135, 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 Apr 2008.
