About this study

Official title: Phase I/II Randomized Blinded Safety, Dose-determining Efficacy Trial Comparing Amnion-derived Cellular Cytokine Solution in 3 Different Regimens With Standard Care 0.9% Sodium Chloride in the Topical Treatment of Partial-thickness Burns

The objective of this protocol is to perform a safety and dose-determination efficacy clinical trial in patients having a degree of partial-thickness burn wounds. The trial will be a prospectively randomized and double-blind trial of ST266 compared with standardized care using 0.9% NaCl (normal saline) solution in the same three treatment regimens.

Read the detailed description

A Phase I/II multi-center clinical trial will be performed in 99 adults with partial-thickness burns. Two similar partial-thickness burn areas in a single patient will be selected. One burn will be randomly assigned to receive either test drug ST266 or normal saline in one of three treatment regimens.

The three treatment arms will be:

  1. ST266 0.01 mL/cm2 every 7th day vs. normal saline 0.01 mL/cm2 every 7th day;
  2. ST266 0.01 mL/cm2 every 4th day vs. normal saline 0.01 mL/cm2 every 4th day; and
  3. ST266 0.01 mL/cm2 every other day vs. normal saline 0.01 mL/cm2 every other day.

Two different preclinical studies of partial-thickness burns on guinea pigs have demonstrated accelerated epithelialization with topical treatment with ST266. Similarly, preclinical studies in Yorkshire pigs have demonstrated more rapid maturity of epithelialization and better quality healing of partial-thickness skin graft donor sites with ST266 treatment.

In the preclinical studies, ST266 given in a dose of 0.01 mL/cm2 wound area appeared to saturate the wound adequately without excess and simultaneously improve healing. In preclinical toxicity studies, the dose of 0.01 mL/cm2 was shown to be safe.

What participants receive

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

  • ST266Biological

    ST266 is a clear liquid containing more than 200 proteins, cytokines, and growth factors in solution. Patients will be treated for 21 days unless both wounds have healed prior to 21 days, at which time a punch biopsy of the epithelialized area of each wound will be performed. A study evaluation visit for assessment of the biopsy site will occur on day 28 or within 7 days of the punch biopsies, whichever occurs first. Six months after the punch biopsy, the patient will return to the burn center for a final examination and photographs of the study wounds.

What is being measured

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

  1. The primary endpoint will be the percentage of each wound that has epithelialized during the 21-day treatment period comparing the ST266-treated wound with the saline-treated wound.

    Measured: 21 days

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. The number of totally epithelialized (100%) wounds in the ST266-treated wounds versus the number in the normal saline-treated wounds

    Measured: 21 days

  2. The percentage conversion to full-thickness wounds in the ST266-treated wounds versus the conversion in the normal saline-treated wounds

    Measured: 21 days

  3. Quality of healing, including pruritis, and scar hypertrophy, and reduction in pain in the ST266-treated wounds as compared to saline-treated wounds

    Measured: 21 days

  4. Quality of healing as assessed by hemoxylin and eosin staining of the punch biopsy taken on Day 21 in the ST266-treated wounds as compared to saline-treated wounds

    Measured: 21 days

  5. Assessment of change in arterial circulation using a laser Doppler from baseline to Day 21 in the ST266-treated wounds as compared to saline-treated wounds

    Measured: 21 days

  6. Determination of levels of 6 cytokines present in blood prior to treatment (baseline) and within one-hour of the first treatment for the initial 12 patients

    Measured: 21 days

  7. The primary safety endpoint will be the incidence of adverse events post-treatment.

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing ST266 in people with Burns, run by Noveome Biotherapeutics, formerly Stemnion at 14 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 8 inclusion and 13 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 May 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 14 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. 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: This study was terminated early due to slow accrual of patients.). Results are not available in the source record.

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 endpoint will be the percentage of each wound that has epithelialized during the 21-day treatment period comparing the ST266-treated wound with the saline-treated wound. (time frame: 21 days). 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 15 May 2019.
