About this study

Official title: A Phase 2/3 Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Dose-Finding Study of the Efficacy and Safety of Daily CF101 Administered Orally in Patients With Moderate-to-Severe Plaque Psoriasis

Eligible patients with Psoriasis will be treated with CF101 or placebo twice daily for 16 weeks. All subjects will receive open-lable CF101 in weeks 17-32.

Read the detailed description

Eligible patients will be randomly assigned to parallel dosing groups of CF101 2 mg or matching placebo tablets twice daily (BID) in a 1:1 ratio for the 16-week controlled treatment period. Approximately 94 patients will be assigned to each group.

Medication will be taken orally BID for 16 weeks in a double-blinded fashion. At the end of 16 weeks, all patients assigned to CF101 will continue CF101, while patients originally assigned to placebo will be reassigned to CF101.

Assessment of peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) adenosine A3 receptor (A3AR) expression at baseline and during treatment with CF101 in selected sites.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Subjects Achieving Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) 75 at 12 Weeks

    Achievement of PASI 75 indicates a 75% reduction in the PASI score, which ranges from 0 (no disease) to 72 (maximal disease)

    Measured: 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Number of Subjects Achieving PGA of 0 or 1

    PGA is a physician's assessment of the severity of disease based on a 6-point scale (score of 0 = clear and 5 = very severe)

    Measured: 16 weeks

  2. Numberof Patients Achieving Psoriasis Area and Severity (PASI) Score of 50 or 75

    Achievement of PASI 50 or 75 indicates a 50% and 75% reduction respectively in the PASI score, which ranges from 0 (no disease) to 72 (maximal disease)

    Measured: 16 weeks

  3. Nature and Frequency of Adverse Events

    Assessment of safety of CF101 in this patient population by gathering adverse event data based on history, vital signs, physical examination, and laboratory data

    Measured: 32 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing CF101 in people with Plaque Psoriasis, run by Can-Fite BioPharma at 18 sites in 4 countries.

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 10 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 18 Nov 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 18 sites in Bulgaria, Romania, Israel, 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 20 Sep 2017). 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 Subjects Achieving Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) 75 at 12 Weeks (time frame: 12 weeks). 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 18 Nov 2020.
