About this study

TÜCHMI-002 is a single center, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blinded, PfSPZ Challenge dose finding trial with two chemoprophylactic regimens and subsequent controlled human malaria infection (CHMI).

Read the detailed description

TÜCHMI-002 is a single center, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blinded, PfSPZ Challenge dose finding trial with two chemoprophylactic regimens and subsequent controlled human malaria infection (CHMI), designed to establish a regimen of PfSPZ Challenge under chemoprophylaxis, with PfSPZ Challenge administered IV, that:

  1. Is safe and well tolerated.
  2. Provides consistent sterile protection against CHMI with homologous sporozoites in healthy adult subjects.
  3. Is a practical regimen for PfSPZ Challenge chemoprophylaxis.

Volunteers will receive three immunizing PfSPZ Challenge IV injections 4 weeks apart under oral chemoprophylaxis. The trial is sequential and has two stages:

  1. In the first stage, the PfSPZ Challenge dose is increased sequentially from 3,200 to 51,200 PfSPZ among the three groups. Controls for the three groups will receive 0.9% Sodium Chloride (NaCl) as placebo. All volunteers will receive a standard chemoprophylactic regimen of chloroquine (CQ) for 10 weeks. Briefly, 10 mg/kg CQ base will be given as loading dose followed by weekly doses of 5 mg/kg CQ base. Homologous CHMI is done with 3,200 PfSPZ Challenge IV eight weeks after the last immunizing PfSPZ Challenge injection.
  2. In Stage B, accelerated regimens with CQ and CQ plus ER-AZ will be assessed. Initiation of Stage B of the trial is dependent upon demonstration of at least 75% (6 out of 8) protective efficacy against homologous CHMI in Stage A, no PfSPZ Challenge related SAEs and approval by the Safety Monitoring Committee (SMC). CHMI is done with 3,200 PfSPZ Challenge (NF54) IV ten weeks after the last immunization with PfSPZ Challenge under chemoprophylaxis. Injections are either done over 28 or 10 days, chemoprophylaxis is given for 5 weeks and 15 days, respectively. Control groups will receive 0.9% NaCl IV as placebo under the respective chemoprophylactic regimen.

Transition from Stage A to Stage B depends on a positive safety and efficacy review and approval by an independent SMC. Safety and efficacy data will also be submitted to the regulatory authorities (FDA in the U.S. and Paul-Ehrlich-Institute in Germany) as well as to the Ethics Committee. Sponsor, SMC and principal investigator will select PfSPZ dose after review of safety and efficacy data. In case of 100% efficacy of more than one dose regimen and comparable tolerability and safety, the higher PfSPZ dose will be used. Information about the selected dose together with the updated volunteer information document stating the dose will be submitted to the ethics committee for approval before initiation of Stage B. In case that PfSPZ Challenge related SAEs occur or efficacy of the best regimen is below 75% the study will not proceed to Stage B.

Stage B: Grp B2 - 51,200 PfSPZ ChallengeExperimentalGroup B2 (n=5) will receive 3 injections of 51,200 PfSPZ Challenge on days 0, 14 and 28, using same std chemoprophylactic regimen with CQ (10 mg/kg CQ base loading dose, followed by weekly dosing with 5 mg/kg CQ base), for 5 instead of 10 wks. But Group B2 will receive extended-release azithromycin (ER-AZ, 2g) on the day of 1st PfSPZ Challenge and monitored for parasitemia by quantitative real time polymerase reaction (qPCR). In case that all CQ+ER-AZ treated volunteers are parasite-free until Day 11 following first PfSPZ Challenge injection, it will indicate that ER-AZ effectively killed the parasites in the liver prior to development of parasitemia. With demonstration of the effectiveness of ER-AZ, the 2nd and 3rd immunizations will be done under ER-AZ alone, otherwise CQ prophylaxis will continue and ER-AZ will not be administered for the 2nd and 3rd injections.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing PfSPZ Challenge in people with Malaria and Plasmodium Falciparum Malaria, run by Sanaria Inc. at 1 site in Germany.

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 14 inclusion and 30 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 15 May 2017. 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 Germany. 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?

Proportion of volunteers who become parasitemic, detected by thick blood film microscopy, within 21 days following CHMI after immunization using PfSPZ Challenge or placebo under chemoprophylaxis [PfSPZ Challenge Vaccine (PfSPZ-CVac) approach]. (time frame: Within 21 days following CHMI). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02115516, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 15 May 2017.
