About this study

Official title: An Open Label, Multicenter, Randomized, Uncontrolled Study Assessing the Safety and Efficacy of KH902 in Patients With Choroidal Neovascularization Due to Neovascular Age-related Macular Degeneration(HOPE Study)

This study is designed to assess the efficacy and safety of multiple intravitreal injection of KH902 in patients with CNV due to AMD.

Read the detailed description

Due to conclusions of KH902 Ia study:

Doses of single intravitreal injection of a recombinant human VEGF receptor-Fc fusion protein (KH902) in patients with CNV secondary to neovascular AMD are from 0.05 mg to 3.0 mg. The trial shows that KH902 is safe and tolerable, and no DLT, ophthalmia reaction, endophthalmitis, or systemic AE relevant to the drug is reported, and the main AEs are transient ocular tension increase and micro-hemorrhage in injection site. KH902 appears to produce rapid clinical effects on VA, supported by improvements in anatomical features, in patients with neovascular AMD.

HOPE Study is an open label, multi-center, randomized, uncontrolled dose-and interval-ranging phase Ib study designed to assess the efficacy and safety of multiple intravitreal injection of KH902 at variable dosing regimen in patients with CNV due to AMD. Two groups of patients will initially receive intravitreal administration of KH902 following the randomization:

  1. Patients in group A will receive monthly intravitreal injections of KH902 for 3 times successively at a dose of 0.5 mg/50 μl/eye;
  2. Patients in group B will receive monthly intravitreal injections of KH902 for 3 times successively at a dose of 2.0 mg/50 μl/eye.

Following the initial 12-week fixed-dosing phase of the trial:

Patients in group A and group B will continue to receive monthly intravitreal injections of KH902 with 0.5 mg/50 μl/eye or 2.0 mg/50 μl/eye as same as the doses he/she received during the fixed dosing phase, on an as needed (PRN) dosing schedule, based upon the need for re-treatment in accordance with pre-specified criteria up till week 52.

What is being measured

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

  1. The incidence rate of adverse event

    To evaluate the safety of multiple intravitreal injection of KH902 of each group.

    Measured: at 52 week

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change from Baseline in BCVA

    To evaluate the efficacy of multiple intravitreal injection of KH902 of each group in the mean change from baseline

    Measured: Specified timepoints during the screening phase and 52-week treatment period

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Intravitreal injection of KH902 in people with Neovascular Age-related Macular Degeneration, run by Chengdu Kanghong Biotech Co., Ltd. at 3 sites in China.

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 6 inclusion and 12 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 27 Mar 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in China. 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 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?

The incidence rate of adverse event (time frame: at 52 week). 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 27 Mar 2014.
