About this study

Official title: A Phase 1a Open-Label Study to Assess the Safety and Pharmacokinetics of a Single ZMappTM Administration in Healthy Adult Volunteers

Background:

  • Ebola is a virus that can spread quickly and causes serious disease. It is currently causing an outbreak in West Africa. There are no approved treatments for Ebola. ZMappTM is a new drug made of natural infection-fighting substances. Researchers want to see if it can treat Ebola.

Objective:

  • To assess the safety of ZMappTM and how the body processes it. To measure the immune system response to ZMappTM.

Eligibility:

  • Healthy people 18 50 years old.

Design:

  • Participants will be screened with a medical history, physical exam, and blood and urine tests. They will have an electrocardiogram (ECG) to measure heart electrical activity. Small pads will be stuck to the arms, legs, and chest.
  • Participants will be admitted to the hospital. They will have a physical exam, medication review, and blood samples.
  • Two intravenous (IV) lines will be placed into separate arm veins. A needle will be used to guide plastic tubing into the veins. One will be used to take blood samples. The other will be used to give the study drug.
  • Participants will be given drugs to help prevent side effects.
  • Participants will be given the study drug by IV over 10 12 hours. Participants will be monitored closely and vital signs taken frequently. They may have another ECG.
  • Blood samples will be taken before, during, and after the infusion.
  • Participants will stay in the hospital 1 or 2 nights after receiving the drug.
  • Participants will have several study visits over 90 days after getting the study drug. They will be asked about side effects. They may have a physical exam, and blood may be drawn.
Read the detailed description

Ebola virus (EBOV) is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates in patients presenting clinical illness. Currently, no agent is approved in the U.S. or elsewhere for the therapeutic treatment of EBOV. The current standard of care for EBOV infection is limited to supportive treatment.

ZMapp TM, a combination of three chimeric human/murine monoclonal antibodies against the EBOV surface glycoprotein found on virions and infected cells, is being developed as a treatment for Ebola virus disease. This is a Phase 1a, open-label study to assess the safety and pharmacokinetics of a single intravenous administration of ZMapp tm in healthy adult volunteers. Three subjects will receive a single intravenous dose of 50mg/kg infusion and be evaluated on study Days 0, 1, 2, 7, 14, 21, 28, 60, and 90. Samples will be collected for pharmacokinetic and immunogenicity assessments at baseline, during, and following infusion. Subjects will be monitored and assessed for safety and the incidence of adverse events over the course of the study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ZMAPP in people with Healthy, run by National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID).

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 6 inclusion and 18 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Dec 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

To evaluate the safety of a single IV infusion of 50 mg/kg of ZMappTM (time frame: at 8 time points through 90 days following infusion). 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 16 Dec 2019.
