About this study

Official title: Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Phase I Dose-escalation Study of Single Dose GHB04L1 in Healthy Adults

It is the hypothesis of this study that intranasal vaccination with a single dose of GHB04L1 is safe and induces an immune response against influenza A H5N1. This hypothesis will be tested in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase I dose-escalation study assessing the safety and tolerability of single dose administration of GHB04L1 in healthy adults. Furthermore, the local and systemic immune response as well as the pharmacokinetic properties of a single dose of GHB04L1 will be studied as secondary objectives. GHB04L1 will be escalated according to a fixed dose escalation scheme comprising three dose levels.

What is being measured

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

  1. To evaluate safety and tolerability of GHB04L1 administered as single dose intranasal aerosol for vaccination against influenza A (H5N1) virus.

    Measured: study medication administration until 30 days after end of study

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To assess local immune response, systemic immune response and pharmacokinetics (shedding) of a single dose of GHB04L1 aerosol administered intranasally.

    Measured: day1 until day 29

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing GHB04L1 in people with Influenza, run by AVIR Green Hills Biotechnology AG at 1 site in Austria.

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 4 inclusion and 15 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 Mar 2010. 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 Austria. 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?

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?

To evaluate safety and tolerability of GHB04L1 administered as single dose intranasal aerosol for vaccination against influenza A (H5N1) virus. (time frame: study medication administration until 30 days after end of study). 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 Mar 2010.
