About this study

Official title: A Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Single Ascending Intravenous Infusion Study of Recombinant Human Immunoglobulin M (rHIgM22) in Patients With Multiple Sclerosis (MS)

This is a Phase I, multi-center, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, dose-escalation study designed to evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity of single intravenous (IV) administrations of rHIgM22 in patients with all clinical presentations of MS.

Study groups in NCT01803867
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
rHIgM22Placebo comparatorCohorts 1-5: In each dosing cohort, the first 2 eligible patients will be enrolled and randomized 1:1 to receive rHIgM22 or placebo, and monitored for safety for a minimum of 7 days before the remaining 8 patients in the cohort are randomized (7 active: 1 placebo) and dosed. Expanded Cohort: Upon establishment of a Maximally Tolerated Dose (MTD), a new group of 21 patients will be enrolled in an Expansion Cohort. Randomly assigned in a 1:1:1 ratio to 1 of 3 treatment groups: placebo, Investigational Product (IP) at MTD, or IP at one full dose level lower than MTD.
Receives: Drug: rHIgM22

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety and tolerability of single ascending doses of the human monoclonal rHIgM22 in patients with MS.

    Monitoring of adverse events (AEs) will be conducted throughout the study. Adverse events, including serious adverse events will be recorded in the case report forms (CRFs).

    Measured: 90 Days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Measure the pharmacokinetics (PK) of single ascending doses of rHIgM22

    PK parameters will include; The maximum measured plasma concentration (Cmax), time to maximum plasma concentration (Tmax), half-life (T1/2), and the area under the concentration curve from time 0 to the concentration at last time point (AUC (0-last)).

    Measured: Day 1 through Day 180

  2. Measure the pharmacodynamics of single ascending doses of rHIgM22 using the Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS)

    Measured: Day 1 through Day 180

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing rHIgM22 in people with Multiple Sclerosis, run by Acorda Therapeutics at 17 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 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 Feb 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 17 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. 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 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?

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?

Safety and tolerability of single ascending doses of the human monoclonal rHIgM22 in patients with MS. (time frame: 90 Days). 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 Feb 2015.
