  • Evidence of current or previous clinically significant disease, medical condition other than psoriasis, or finding of the medical examination (including vital signs and ECG), that in the opinion of the Investigator, would compromise the safety of the patient or the quality of the data. This criterion provides an opportunity for the investigator to exclude patients based on clinical judgment, even if other eligibility criteria are satisfied. (Psoriatic arthritis is not considered an exclusion)

  • Chronic or acute hepatitis B and C, or carrier status. Patient with anti-HBc Ab and undetectable anti-HBs Ab should also be excluded.

Show all 17Show fewer
  • History of allergy/hypersensitivity to a systemically administered biologic agent or its excipients

  • Intake of restricted medications (c.f. Section 4.2.2) or other drugs considered likely to interfere with the safe conduct of the study
  • History of alcohol abuse
  • History of drug abuse or positive drug screen at screening visit. Subjects with legitimate medically supervised uses of the drugs which are not excluded for other reasons (section 4.2.2 of the protocol) can be enrolled.
  • Any blood donation or significant blood loss within 4 weeks prior to Visit 2
  • Excessive (e.g. competitive) physical activities (within 1 week prior to administration or during the trial)
  • Patients with any of the following laboratory values at screening and are considered clinically significant by the investigators:
  • Haemoglobin, hematocrit, white blood cell count, absolute lymphocyte or neutrophil count, or platelet count < LLN (below the lower limit of the reference normal range)

What is being measured

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

  1. PASI75

    The primary objective of this study is to investigate efficacy (clinical proof of concept) of AbGn-168H in patients with moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis following intravenous administration of multiple doses compared to placebo. In this trial, the high dose and low dose of AbGn-168 and placebo is administered weekly.

    Measured: the achievement of at least 75% reduction from baseline PASI score (PASI75) at week 12 in each patient.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. safety and tolerability

    Safety measurements including physical examination, vital signs, ECG, clinical laboratory tests and adverse events

    Measured: At different time point for 16 weeks after the first treatment

  2. pharmacokinetics

    AUC, Cmax, tmax, t1/2, MRT and Vss; additional parameters as needed

    Measured: At different time point for16 weeks after the first treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing AbGn-168H in people with Moderate to Severe Chronic Plaque Psoriasis, run by AbGenomics B.V Taiwan Branch at 15 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 7 inclusion and 17 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 May 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 15 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 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?

PASI75 (time frame: the achievement of at least 75% reduction from baseline PASI score (PASI75) at week 12 in each patient.). 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 8 May 2015.
