What is being measured

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

    Number of patients with adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability

    Measured: Over 1 year

  2. Efficacy Measure by Change in Lean Body Mass (LBM)

    Total LBM is measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scan.

    Measured: Groups 2,3&4: Baseline, Day 35, Day 85 and Day 106

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Serum Pharmacokinetics (PK) of BVS857: Cmax; The Observed Maximum Plasma (or Serum or Blood) Concentration Following Drug Administration

    Measured: Groups 1: Day 1through to Day 56: Groups 2,3&4:Day 1 through to Day 105

  2. Serum Pharmacokinetics (PK) of BVS857: Tmax; The Time to Reach the Maximum Concentration After Drug Administration

    Measured: Groups 1: Day 1through to Day 56: Groups 2,3&4:Day 1 through to Day 105

  3. Serum Pharmacokinetics (PK) of BVS857: AUClast; The Area Under the Plasma (or Serum or Blood) Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to the Time of the Last Quantifiable Concentration

    Measured: Groups 1: Day 1through to Day 56: Groups 2,3&4:Day 1 through to Day 105

  4. Serum Pharmacokinetics (PK) of BVS857: AUCinf; The Area Under the Plasma (or Serum or Blood) Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to Infinity

    Measured: Groups 1: Day 1through to Day 56: Groups 2,3&4:Day 1 through to Day 105

  5. Serum Pharmacokinetics (PK) of BVS857: T1/2; The Terminal Elimination Half-life

    Measured: Groups 1: Day 1through to Day 56: Groups 2,3&4:ay D1 through to Day 105

  6. Serum Pharmacokinetics (PK) of BVS857: CL; The Systemic (or Total Body) Clearance From Plasma (or Serum or Blood) Following Intravenous Administration

    Measured: Groups 1: Day 1through to Day 56: Groups 2,3&4:Day 1 through to Day 105

  7. Serum Pharmacokinetics (PK) of BVS857: Vz; The Volume of Distribution During the Terminal Elimination Phase Following Intravenous Administration

    Measured: Groups 1: Day 1through to Day 56: Groups 2,3&4:Day 1 through to Day 105

  8. Serum Pharmacokinetics (PK) of BVS857: Vss; The Volume of Distribution at Steady State Following Intravenous Administration

    Measured: Groups 1: Day 1through to Day 56: Groups 2,3&4:Day 1 through to Day 105

  9. Serum Pharmacokinetics (PK) of BVS857: Vz/F; The Apparent Volume of Distribution During the Terminal Elimination Phase Following Extravascular Administration

    Measured: Groups 1: Day 1through to Day 56: Groups 2,3&4:Day 1 through to Day 105

  10. Serum Pharmacokinetics (PK) of BVS857: CL/F; The Apparent Systemic (or Total Body) Clearance From Plasma (or Serum or Blood) Following Extravascular Administration

    Measured: Groups 1: Day 1through to Day 56: Groups 2,3&4:Day 1 through to Day 105

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing BVS857 in people with Hypercatabolic Status Related to Severe Burn, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals 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 3 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 7 Mar 2016. 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 7 Mar 2016). 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?

Number of Patients With Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability (time frame: Over 1 year). 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 7 Mar 2016.
