Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 40 to 80 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • ≥40 and ≤80 years old.
  • Patients with hypertension (systolic blood pressure [BP] >155 mm Hg) and/or requiring 2 or more antihypertensive medications: no restrictions will be placed on antihypertensive agents, although loop diuretics will be temporarily changed to diluting site agents (eg, hydrochlorothiazide, indapamide, metolazone) prior to each blood oxygen level-dependent magnetic resonance imaging (BOLD-MRI) study performed during the trial, unless, in the judgment of the Investigator, the change represents a hazard to the patient. ARAS patients will be identified based upon radiologic and clinical criteria suggestive of renovascular hypertension and/or hemodynamically significant renovascular disease >60% lumen occlusion (determined by quantitative computed tomography angiography or Doppler ultrasound velocity >200 cm/sec).
  • Have an estimated glomerular filtration rate of ≥15 ml/min/1.73 m2 calculated using the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) formula.

About this study

Official title: A Phase 2a, Placebo-controlled Trial to Evaluate the Impact of Intravenous Bendavia™ on Ischemia Reperfusion Injury in Atherosclerotic Renal Artery Stenosis in Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty of the Renal Artery

This was a Phase 2a prospective, single center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study designed to assess the efficacy, pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of IV elamipretide for reduction of reperfusion injury in subjects with Atherosclerotic Renal Artery Stenosis (ARAS), who are undergoing percutaneous transluminal angioplasty of the renal artery (PTRA).

Read the detailed description

This was a Phase 2a prospective, single center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study designed to assess the efficacy, pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of IV elamipretide for reduction of reperfusion injury in subjects with ARAS, who are undergoing percutaneous transluminal angioplasty of the renal artery (PTRA).

The randomization (1:1 active:placebo) was stratified by a diagnosis of diabetes mellitus. Participants received either 0.05 mg/kg/h elamipretide or matching placebo, administered as an IV infusion at 60 mL/h infused 30 minutes before and continued 3 hours after PTRA of the renal artery. After completion of the PTRA and stenting, subjects were to receive standard treatment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Bendavia in people with Renal Artery Obstruction and Hypertension, Renovascular, run by Stealth BioTherapeutics Inc. at 1 site 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 15 inclusion and 6 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Aug 2020. 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 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 11 Aug 2020). 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?

Change in Mean Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR), as Measured by Iothalamate Clearance, at Baseline (Pre-percutaneous Renal Artery Angioplasty and 8 Weeks Post-PTRA. (time frame: Baseline (pre-PTRA) and 8 weeks post-PTRA). 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 NCT01755858, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Aug 2020.
