About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Randomized, Double Blind, Placebo Controlled, Proof of Concept, Phase 2 Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Weekly Subcutaneous MLN1202, in Improving Diabetic Nephropathy in Subjects With Macroalbuminuria

The purpose of this study is to characterize the effects of 85 days treatment with MLN1202 on urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) in participants with type 2 diabetes, advanced kidney disease/diabetic nephropathy (DN) and macro-albuminuria (UACR>300 mg/g) based on average of 3 consecutive first morning voids sample collection.

Read the detailed description

The drug being tested in this study is called MLN1202. MLN1202 is being tested to treat people who have diabetes with macroalbuminuria. This study will look at the urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio in people who take MLN1202.

The study will enroll approximately 156 patients. Participants will be randomly assigned (by chance, like flipping a coin) to one of the four treatment groups-which will remain undisclosed to the patient and study doctor during the study (unless there is an urgent medical need):

  • MLN1202 75 mg subcutaneous (SC) injection
  • MLN1202 105 mg SC injection
  • MLN1202 150 mg SC injection
  • Placebo matching MLN1202 SC injection (dummy inactive solution) - this is a solution that looks like the study drug but has no active ingredient

All participants will receive a loading dose of placebo or MLN1202 on Day 1 followed by once-weekly injections of the study medication they were randomized to receive.

This multi-center trial will be conducted worldwide. The overall time to participate in this study is 5 months. Participants will make multiple visits to the clinic, plus a final visit 5 weeks after the last dose of study drug for a follow-up assessment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change from Baseline in Urinary Albumin-to-Creatinine Ratio (UACR) at Day 85

    UACR will be calculated using the geometric mean of 3 consecutive days first in the morning urine voids. First morning void is defined as a void upon awakening and before beginning daily activities.

    Measured: Baseline and Day 85

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Change from Baseline in Urinary Albumin-to-Creatinine Ratio (UACR) Over Time

    For Days 29 and 57 UACR will be evaluated from a single first morning void. For Days 85 and 113 UACR will be calculated using the geometric mean of 3 consecutive days first in the morning urine voids. First morning void is defined as a void upon awakening and before beginning daily activities.

    Measured: Baseline and Days 29, 57, 85, and 113

  2. Change from Baseline in Urinary Protein:Creatinine Ratio (UPCR) Over Time

    For Days 29 and 57 UPAR will be evaluated from a single first morning void. For Days 85 and 113 UPCR will be calculated using the geometric mean of 3 consecutive days first in the morning urine voids. First morning void is defined as a void upon awakening and before beginning daily activities.

    Measured: Baseline and Days 29, 57, 85, and 113

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing MLN1202 in people with Diabetic Nephropathy, run by Takeda.

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 10 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 25 Sep 2017. 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. 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?

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?

Change from Baseline in Urinary Albumin-to-Creatinine Ratio (UACR) at Day 85 (time frame: Baseline and Day 85). 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 25 Sep 2017.
