Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 3 to 65 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Subject is diagnosed with clinically significant ADO2 as determined by the investigator.
  • Individuals will be screened who have either been diagnosed with osteopetrosis and have a clinical phenotype and/or family history that is consistent with ADO2, have been told that they have an abnormally high bone density (>3SD above mean for age and sex), or a clinical presentation consistent with ADO2. Initial contact will be with members of ADO2 kindreds who have known disease.
  • Provide written informed consent for competent adults and for minors provide written assent (if appropriate) and written informed consent by a legally authorized representative after the nature of the study has been explained, and prior to any research-related procedures
  • Ages 3 to 65 years inclusive.
  • Willing to use reliable method of contraception [i.e. oral or patch hormonal contraceptives, intrauterine device, physical barrier methods, tubal ligation or hysterectomy, vasectomy (partner) or abstinence] throughout the study and for 30 days after the last dose of study drug.

Who cannot join

  • Any unstable illness that in the investigator's opinion precludes participation in the study.
  • Serum calcium >10.6 mg/dl at screening.
  • eGFR using the MDRD equation in adults (or the modified Schwartz equation for children) of < 35 ml/min/1.73m2.
  • Nephrocalcinosis on screening ultrasound Grade 3 or higher [18]. Subjects with grade 3 or higher nephrocalcinosis will be excluded because we anticipate that use of study drug will increase bone resorption, resulting in increased urinary calcium excretion, which could, potentially, lead to worsening nephrocalcinosis. The grading scale is listed below:
  • 0 = Normal
  • = Faint hyperechogenic rim around the sides and tip of the medullary pyramids
Show all 15Show fewer
  • = More intense echogenic rim with echoes faintly filling the entire medullary pyramid
  • = Intense echoes throughout the medullary pyramid
  • = Solitary focus of echoes at the tip of the medullary pyramid/nephrolithiasis
  • 5. Use of any investigational product (drug or device) within 30 days prior to randomization.
  • 6. Subject reported history of hepatitis C.
  • 7. A recent (past 5 years) history of alcoholism or intravenous drug abuse.
  • 8. History of hypersensitivity to IFN-ɣ or E. coli-derived products.
  • 9. History of liver disease as evidenced by laboratory results at Screening (aspartate aminotransferase [AST] or alanine aminotransferase [ALT] >2x the upper limit of normal), except when in the opinion of the investigator the liver disease is caused by extra medullary hematopoiesis.
  • 10. Pregnant or nursing women or those who plan on becoming pregnant during the study.

About this study

Official title: Phase 2a Study of Interferon Gamma-1b for the Treatment of Autosomal Dominant Type 2 Osteopetrosis

This study is an open label use of ACTIMMUNE for patients with Autosomal Dominant Osteopetrosis Type 2(ADO2). Effects of treatment will be evaluated after 14 weeks on ACTIMMUNE by bone resorption markers. This study will treat 12 patients with ADO2 recruited from Indiana University and Riley Hospital for Children at Indiana University Health.

Read the detailed description

This is a single center, open-label, dose-escalation study evaluating the efficacy, as defined by biochemical endpoints, and safety profiles of ACTIMMUNE in ADO2 subject.

The investigators will treat 12 ADO2 subjects (children or adults age 3-65) with Actimmune® via a dose escalation protocol to a dose of 50 µg/m2 subcutaneously three times per week (TIW) for 8 weeks. If serum CTX does not increase by more than 25% by week 8, the dose will be increased to 100 µg/m2 subcutaneously TIW.

Individual subjects in whom ACTIMMUNE administration increases bone resorption markers during the 14 weeks of this trial will be eligible for a 1 year extension trial.

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes in Bone Resorption Markers From Baseline to 14 Weeks.

    Evaluate for changes in bone resorption markers including CTX, NTX/creatinine ratio between baseline and 14 weeks

    Measured: baseline, 14 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change in Bone Turnover Markers Between After Completion of 6-12 Weeks of Treatment

    Evaluate for changes in bone turnover markers including TRAP5b, NTX, CTX/TRAP5b ratio after 6-12 weeks of treatment.

    Measured: 6-12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing ACTIMMUNE in people with Autosomal Dominant Osteopetrosis Type 2, run by Indiana University 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 5 inclusion and 15 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 8 Jan 2021. 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. 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 8 Jan 2021). 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?

Changes in Bone Resorption Markers From Baseline to 14 Weeks. (time frame: baseline, 14 weeks). 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 NCT02584608, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 8 Jan 2021.
