About this study

Official title: A Phase One, Open Label, Multi-Dose Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Biologic Effects of Three Doses of IW001 in Patients With Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF)

This is an open label, Phase One, multicenter study, designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, to explore the biologic effects, and to explore the clinical effects of the following doses of IW001: 0.1mg/day, 0.5 mg/day, and 1.0 mg/day, when administered once a day orally for 24 weeks in patients with IPF.

Read the detailed description

IW001 is a therapeutic designed to treat anti-Col (V)-mediated autoimmune diseases via oral tolerance. With the identification of the specific antigen involved in the autoimmune disease process in IPF, IW001 induced oral tolerance may be an effective treatment. IW001 is taken orally, introduced into the mucosal immune system at the Peyer's Patches in the distal small intestine, where antigen-presenting cells present the antigen to regulatory T cells (Tregs). These antigen-specific Tregs enter the blood stream and traffic to areas where the specific antigen has generated an autoimmune response. Thus, IW001 may produce selective suppression of immune responses against Col (V).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing IW001 in people with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis, run by ImmuneWorks at 11 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 14 inclusion and 18 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 29 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 11 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 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 the safety and tolerability of three doses of IW001 (0.1 mg/day, 0.5 mg/day, and 1.0 mg/day orally) in patients with IPF patients over a 24 week treatment period. (time frame: Monthly during the 24 week treatment period.). 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 NCT01199887, which also lists 21 linked publications.

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 29 Jul 2013.
