About this study

Official title: Double-blind, Randomized, Multicenter, Placebo-controlled Phase II Study of Efficacy and Safety of HMPL-004 in Subjects With Active Moderate Crohn's Disease

A double blind, randomized, multi-center, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of HMPL-004 in patients with active moderate Crohn's Disease.

Read the detailed description

This was a double-blind, randomized, multicenter, placebo-controlled study evaluating the efficacy and safety of oral HMPL-004 in subjects with active moderate Crohn's disease (CD) - Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) 220 to 400 - on stable doses of CD medications who had not received anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha (anti-TNF-α) for at least 3 months prior to start of treatment. HMPL-004 (or placebo) was added to the subject's existing CD medications. Subjects were observed for an 8-week treatment period and a subsequent 4-week follow-up period.

What is being measured

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

  1. CDAI Clinical Response -100 at Week 8

    Percentage of subjects with CDAI clinical response -100 at Week 8 based on ITT population using the WOCF method to impute missing CDAI scores at Week 8.

    Clinical response -100 was defined as CDAI score decrease of ≥100 points from baseline in subjects who had no change in concomitant medications for Crohn's disease except for steroids, which could be tapered after Week 8.

    The CDAI consists of eight variables, including Liquid or very soft stools, Abdominal pain, General well-being, Features of extra-intestinal disease, Oplates for diarrhea, Abdominal mass, Hematocrit and Body weight below standard, each weighted according to its ability to be predictive of disease activity. The total score ranges from 0 to over 600 with higher scores indicating higher disease activity or worse outcome.

    Measured: 8 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing HMPL-004 in people with Crohn's Disease, run by Hutchison Medipharma Limited.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 Jan 2020. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 3 Dec 2012). 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?

CDAI Clinical Response -100 at Week 8 (time frame: 8 weeks). 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 Jan 2020.
