About this study

Official title: Double-Blind Randomized Placebo-Controlled Cross-Over Phase IIa Trial to Evaluate Efficacy of CVXL-0107 on Parkinson-Related Symptoms and Levodopa-Induced Dyskinesia in Advanced Parkinson's Disease Patients Using a Levodopa Challenge Test

CVXL-0107 a glutamate release inhibitor, has shown evidence of antiparkinsonian and antidyskinetic activity in a macaque model and has shown a significant effect on the UPDRS-III (Movement Disorder Society - Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale) while "ON", as well as an increase of "ON-time" without dyskinesia or without troublesome dyskinesia in a previous phase 2a proof of concept study. This study will confirm the efficacy of CVXL-0107 in combination with optimal dose of levodopa on motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD) .

Read the detailed description

Phase IIa study, 1:1 randomized, double blind placebo- controlled, with cross-over. Each volunteer patient will be randomly assigned to receive CVXL-0107 or placebo as add-on PD therapy and crossed-over to the other arm in the second sequence of the study. They will be assessed during an acute levodopa challenge test with one intake of the study drug or placebo with a supra-optimal dose of levodopa after 2 weeks of daily treatment with the same study drug or placebo. Patients will be cross-overed to the other treatment and reassessed during a second acute levodopa challenge test after 2 weeks of daily treatment with the study drug or the placebo. The study will evaluate the anti-PD and the anti-dyskinesia efficacy of CVXL-0107 as measured by MDS-UPDRS part III (Movement Disorder Society - Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale) and on levodopa-induced dyskinesia as measured by the AIMS (Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale).

What is being measured

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

    CVXL-0107 and placebo

    Measured: at visit 3 (day 15= challenge test day) and visit 4 (day 37= challenge test day): at baseline (before L-Dopa administration), then every 20 minutes during the first hour and then every 30 minutes during 5 hours.

  2. Change in AIMS ( Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale) score

    CVXL-0107 and placebo

    Measured: at visit 3 (day 15= challenge test day) and visit 4 (day 37 = challenge test day): at baseline (before L-Dopa administration), then every 20 minutes during the first hour and then every 30 minutes during 5 hours

    Measured: at visit 3 (day 14) and visit 4 (day 36)

  4. Area Under the Curve [AUC] of CVXL-0107 concentrations

    Blood samples at L-dopa intake and after 20', 40', 60', 90', 120', 240'.

    Measured: at visit 3 (day 15= challenge test day) and visit 4 (day 37= challenge test day)

  5. Area Under the Curve [AUC] of levodopa concentrations

    Blood samples at L-dopa intake and after 20', 40', 60', 90', 120', 240'.

    Measured: at visit 3 (day 15= challenge test day) and visit 4 (day 37= challenge test day)

  6. Assessment of total daily "ON" time in Patients Diaries

    Total "ON-time"

    Measured: During 3 days, prior to visit 3 (days 11-13) and prior to visit 4 (days 33, 34, 35)

  7. Assessment of daily "ON" time without dyskinesia in Patients Diaries

    "ON-time" without dyskinesia

    Measured: During 3 days; prior to visit 3 (days 11-13) and prior to visit 4 (days 33, 34, 35)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing CVXL-0107 and Levodopa in people with Idiopathic Parkinson Disease, run by CleveXel Pharma at 1 site in France.

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 16 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 24 Jul 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 France. 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?

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?

Change in MDS-UPDRS part III (Movement Disorder Society - Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale Part III) score. (time frame: at visit 3 (day 15= challenge test day) and visit 4 (day 37= challenge test day): at baseline (before L-Dopa administration), then every 20 minutes during the first hour and then every 30 minutes during 5 hours.). 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 24 Jul 2017.
