What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Each Category of Adverse Events in Stage I

    Measured: Stage I (up to 1 year)

  2. Number of Participants in Each Category of Adverse Events (AE) in Stage II

    Measured: Stage II (1 year to 3.5 years after first dose)

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Area Undre Curve (AUC) of MEDI-545 After First Dose in Stage I

    Measured: After first dose in Stage I (0 upto 28 days)

  2. AUC0-14 of MEDI-545 After First Dose in Stage I

    Summary of area under the concentration-time curve from zero to Day 14.

    Measured: After first dose in Stage I

  3. Maximum Observed Concentration (Cmax) of MEDI-545 After First Dose in Stage I

    Measured: After first dose in Stage I

  4. Change From Baseline in 21-gene Signature Fold Change in Stage I

    21-gene signature fold change is pharmacodynamics (PD) parameter measuring expression of type I IFN-inducible gene.

    Measured: Stage I

  5. Number of Participants With Positive Anti-drug Antibody (ADA) During Stage I

    Measured: Stage I

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing MEDI-545 and MEDI-545 600 in people with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, run by AstraZeneca at 7 sites in Japan.

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 10 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 19 Nov 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in Japan. 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 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 19 Nov 2018). 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?

Number of Participants With Each Category of Adverse Events in Stage I (time frame: Stage I (up to 1 year)). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 19 Nov 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
