About this study

Official title: A Phase I Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo Controlled Dose Escalation Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of JVS-100 Administered by Needle-free Dermal Injection to Cohorts of Adults Receiving Surgical Sternotomy Incisions

This study will investigate the safety and efficacy of using JVS-100 to accelerate wound healing and reduce scar formation in subjects receiving surgical incisions ("sternotomies") during cardiovascular surgery. Twenty-five (25) subjects receiving a median sternotomy of 16 - 25 cm in the process of cardiothoracic surgery will be enrolled consecutively and be followed for 6 months post-dosing. Three cohorts of approximately 8 subjects each will be enrolled, and within each cohort subjects will be randomized 3:1 to receive a single set of needle-free dermal injections of either JVS-100 or placebo. JVS-100 or placebo will be delivered along the edge of the sternal wound using a needle-free injection device that has FDA-clearance for subcutaneous injections.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study of Median Sternotomy, run by SironRX Therapeutics, Inc. at 6 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 8 inclusion and 25 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 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 6 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Timothy J Miller, Ph.D (216-445-5588, tmiller@sironrx.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To investigate the safety and tolerability of ascending doses of JVS-100 delivered via needle-free dermal injections to subjects receiving surgical incisions following cardiothoracic surgery. (time frame: 6 months). 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 23 Jul 2013.
