About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Combination, Immunologic Study of LTX-315 as Adjunct to GV1001 in Patients Following Curative Surgery for Carcinoma

This study involves testing of the medicine LTX-315 combined with a cancer vaccine (GV1001). This will be tested in patients that have had surgery with curative intent for malignant tumour.

GV1001 is a peptide vaccine in development to treat cancer. An adjuvant, is required to start the immune response in the body to have effect of GV-1001.

LTX-315, also a peptide, in development for cancer treatment. In this study, the investigators wish to find out whether LTX-315 can make GV1001 more effective at stimulating the immune system.

Read the detailed description

This clinical study has two main aims which are:

  • To measure the immunological effects of LTX-315 in combination with GV1001
  • Find out about the side effects of the combination of the two drugs This is an open label, single centre study assessing immunological effects and safety of LTX-315 given as an adjunct to GV1001. The LTX-315 dose will escalate while the GV1001 dose will be fixed.

LTX-315 and GV1001 will be given as intradermal injections on days 1, 8, 15, 22 and 36.

Investigational treatment: LTX-315 (0.10 mL) with escalating concentrations will be injected intradermally, followed, 1-2 hours later, by intradermal injection of 0.56 mg GV1001 (0.20 mL, 2.8 mg/mL) in the same site, in one arm.

DTH-test control: 0.10 mg GV1001 (0.10 mL) will be injected intradermally in the contralateral arm without LTX-315, as a DTH skin reactivity test control.

LTX-315ExperimentalThe dose range of 0,25-2.0 mg/ML LTX-315 will be used. In combination with a fixed dose of GV-1001.
Receives: Drug: LTX-315

What is being measured

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

  1. Immunological effects of LTX-315 in combination with GV1001 as measured by DTH skin test reaction and T-cell function in peripheral blood.

    Patients will return to the site 24 to 48 hours after the LTX-315 and GV1001 injections for DTH assessment and in week 10 for an end of study assessment.

    Measured: 5 injections, treatment period 36 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To evaluate the safety profile of LTX-315 in combination with GV1001 study

    Assessment of adverse events and abnormal laboratory values recorded during the

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing LTX-315 in people with Carcinoma, run by Lytix Biopharma AS at 1 site in Norway.

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 17 inclusion and 14 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 11 Jan 2012. 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 Norway. 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?

Immunological effects of LTX-315 in combination with GV1001 as measured by DTH skin test reaction and T-cell function in peripheral blood. (time frame: 5 injections, treatment period 36 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 11 Jan 2012.
