About this study

Official title: Open-Label, Non-controlled, Single Ascending Dose Study to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Exploratory Efficacy of KTP-001 in Subjects With Lumbar Disc Herniation

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and exploratory efficacy of KTP-001 in subjects with lumbar disc herniation.

Read the detailed description

This study was a first-in-human, open-label, non-controlled single ascending dose study of KTP-001 in male and female subjects between the ages of 30 and 70 years with a single herniated lumbar disc. After obtaining informed consent, subjects were evaluated during a screening period of no more than 3 weeks (21 days). This study was conducted in 10 centers in the US.

Subjects that met all screening requirements and inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria were enrolled into the study. Overall, 24 subjects were enrolled and treated: 6 subjects in each cohort. Cohort 1 received a 5 μg/disc dose of KTP-001 by intradiscal injection. Following administration of study drug, subjects were confined to the study center for 24 hours to collect data for safety and efficacy measures and collect blood samples for safety, PK evaluation, exploratory PD and anti-KTP-001 antibody and then returned for further assessments at various intervals from weeks 1 through to month 24.

After all subjects in Cohort 1 had received study drug, safety measures were evaluated by a Data and Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) to determine whether to escalate KTP-001 administration to the next dose level. If appropriate, Cohort 2 subjects received 15 μg/disc of KTP-001, Cohort 3 subjects received 50 μg/disc of KTP-001, and Cohort 4 subjects received 150 μg/disc of KTP-001 by intradiscal injection. All safety, PK, and exploratory efficacy assessments were performed for the subjects in the subsequent cohorts as were performed for Cohort 1.

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety Assessed by Adverse Events, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), X-ray Imaging, Physical Examination, Neurologic Examination and Vital Signs

    Any clinically significant changes were recorded as adverse events. They are described in the adverse events section of the results.

    AEs related to MRI, X-ray Imaging, Physical examination, and Neurologic examination are considered as adverse events of special interest (AESI). A treatment-emergent AE (TEAE) was defined as an AE that was not present prior to treatment with study drug, but appeared following treatment or was present at treatment initiation but worsened in severity during treatment.

    Measured: 24 months

  2. Number of Participants With Change in 12-lead Electrocardiogram (ECG) and Clinical Laboratory Tests (CLT)

    Assessment of the number of participants with change in 12-lead ECG and CLT were assessed from baseline, 24 hours and 13 weeks.

    Measured: 13 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of Participants Serum Concentrations of KTP-001 Below the Limit of Quantification (BLQ)

    The serum concentrations of KTP-001 were below the limit of quantification (BLQ) (<100 ng/mL) at all time points in all participants

    Measured: 13 weeks

  2. Number of Participants With Anti-KTP-001 Antibody

    Measured: 13 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing KTP-001 in people with Lumbar Disc Herniation, run by Teijin America, Inc. at 10 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 4 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Feb 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 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. 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 5 Feb 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?

Safety Assessed by Adverse Events, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), X-ray Imaging, Physical Examination, Neurologic Examination and Vital Signs (time frame: 24 months). 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?
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 Feb 2020.
