About this study

Official title: A Phase II Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Trial of MCMV5322A/MCMV3068A for the Prevention of Cytomegalovirus Disease in High-risk Kidney Allograft Recipients

This is a Phase II, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study designed to assess the safety and clinical activity of multiple intravenous doses of MCMV5322A/MCMV3068A in cytomegalovirus (CMV)-seronegative recipients of a renal transplant from a CMV-seropositive donor, with use of a preemptive approach for prevention of CMV disease. Participants will be randomized into two treatment groups: active or placebo control; both arms will be followed preemptively. The study has a planned enrollment of approximately 120 participants (60 active and 60 placebo).

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
MCMV5322A/MCMV3068AExperimentalParticipants will receive a total of four doses of study drug administered by intravenous infusion: at the time of transplantation (Day 1), and at Days 8, 29, and 57. MCMV5322A/MCMV3068A will be tested in this study at 10 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) of each component antibody. Thus, at each dose, 10 mg/kg of MCMV5322A and 10 mg/kg of MCMV3068A will be tested (20 mg/kg total).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing MCMV3068A and MCMV5322A in people with Cytomegalovirus Infections, run by Genentech, Inc. at 39 sites in 8 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 4 inclusion and 15 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 8 Mar 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 39 sites in United States, France, Spain, Germany, Belgium and 3 more countries. 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 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.

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?

Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events (time frame: Baseline up to Week 24). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT01753167, which also lists 4 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 8 Mar 2017.
