About this study

Official title: A Phase I/II Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of JVS-100 Administered by Retrograde Delivery to Cohorts of Adults With Ischemic Heart Failure

A phase I/II study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of JVS-100 administered by retrograde delivery to cohorts of adults with Ischemic Heart Failure.

Read the detailed description

72 subjects with ischemic cardiomyopathy. The Phase I portion (n=12 subjects) will be open label. In the first cohort, six subjects will receive a single dose of 30 mg of JVS-100 with a minimum of 3 days between each enrollment. After seven days following the enrollment of the last patient of cohort 1, a safety assessment by the DSMC will be performed. Upon DSMC approval, the second cohort of six subjects will receive a single dose of 45 mg of JVS-100 with a minimum of 3 days between each enrollment. After seven days following the enrollment of the last patient of cohort 2, a safety assessment by the DSMC will be performed. Upon DSMC approval, up to 60 subjects will be randomized (1:1:1) to receive a single dose of 30 mg or 45 mg of JVS-100 or matching placebo.

Being tested
Placebo, 30 mg dose of JVS-100, 45 mg dose of JVS-100

What is being measured

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

  1. Impact of JVS-100 delivery on 6 minute walk distance at 4 month follow-up

    To investigate the impact of single doses of JVS-100 (either 30 or 45 mg) delivered retrograde via the coronary sinus through the Oscor Venos Occlusion Balloon catheter on 6 minute walk distance compared to placebo at 4 months post dosing.

    Measured: 4 Months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Impact of JVS-100 delivery on heart failure symptoms compared to placebo at 4 and/or 12 month follow-up

    To assess the impact of a single dose of JVS-100 on heart failure symptoms compared to placebo at 4 and/or 12 months post-dosing.

    Measured: 4 and/or 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing 30 mg dose of JVS-100 and 45 mg dose of JVS-100 in people with Ischemic Heart Failure, run by Juventas Therapeutics, Inc. at 4 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 15 inclusion and 39 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 Oct 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Impact of JVS-100 delivery on 6 minute walk distance at 4 month follow-up (time frame: 4 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 Oct 2014.
