What is being measured

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

  1. Short-term Period: Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs), Serious AEs (SAEs), Deaths, Discontinuations and Infusional AEs

    AE=any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a pre-existing medical condition which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. Related AE=relationship of certain, probable, possible, or missing. SAE=any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: results in death, is life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or causes prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, results in the development of drug dependency or drug abuse, is an important medical event.

    Measured: From Day 1 of double-blind period to 1st dose of long-term period

  2. Short-term Period: Number of Adverse Events (AEs) Related to Study Drug

    AE=any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a pre-existing medical condition which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. Related AE=relationship of certain, probable, possible, or missing. Intensity = mild (grade 1), moderate (grade 2), severe (grade 3), life-threatening/disabling (grade 4).

    Measured: From Day 1 of double-blind period to 1st dose of long-term period

  3. Short-term Period: MeanSystolic and Diastolic Blood Pressure

    Vital sign measurements are summarized without regard to position (sitting, standing, supine).

    Measured: Day 1 predose and postdose and Day 2

  4. Short-term Period: Mean Heart Rate

    Vital signs measurements are summarized without regard to position (sitting, standing, supine).

    Measured: Day 1 predose and postdose and Day 2

  5. Short-term Period: Mean Respirations Rate

    Vital sign measurements are summarized without regard to position (sitting, standing, supine).

    Measured: Day 1 predose and postdose and Day 2

  6. Short-term Period: Mean Temperature

    Vital sign measurements are summarized without regard to position (sitting, standing, supine).

    Measured: Day 1 predose and postdose and Day 2

  7. Short-term Period: Number of Participants With Clinical Laboratory and Electrocardiogram (ECG) Abnormalities

    Laboratory tests consisted of complete blood count, chemistry, and urinalysis.

    Measured: Screening and Days 1 and 2

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Long-term Period: Number of Participants With Death as Outcome, Serious AEs (SAEs), Discontinuations Due to AEs, and Treatment-related AEs

    AE=any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a preexisting medical condition that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. Related AE=relationship of certain, probable, possible, or missing. SAE=any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: results in death, is life-threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or causes prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, results in the development of drug dependency or drug abuse, is an important medical event.

    Measured: Days 15 to 56 days post last dose of the long-term period

  2. Minimum (Cmin) Plasma Concentration of Abatacept

    Cmin is the minimum, or trough, concentration of a drug observed after its administration and just prior to the administration of a subsequent dose.

    Measured: Days 15, 29, 85, 169, 253 and 337

  3. Maximum (Cmax) Plasma Concentration of Abatacept

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Abatacept in people with Lupus Nephritis, run by Bristol-Myers Squibb at 1 site in China.

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 3 inclusion and 8 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 30 Jul 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 3 Jun 2010). 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?

Short-term Period: Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs), Serious AEs (SAEs), Deaths, Discontinuations and Infusional AEs (time frame: From Day 1 of double-blind period to 1st dose of long-term period). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT00705367, 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 30 Jul 2013.
