About this study

Official title: A Phase II Pilot Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Efficacy, Pharmacodynamics and Pharmacokinetics of IdeS in Asymptomatic Antibody-Mediated Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (TTP) Patients With Low ADAMTS13 Activity

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and tolerability in patients diagnosed with asymptomatic antibody-mediated TTP with low ADAMTS13 activity after receiving single intravenous dose of IdeS.

Read the detailed description

Immunoglobulin G-degrading enzyme of Streptococcus pyogenes (IdeS) is an IgG specific endopeptidase which cleaves IgG molecules and efficiently neutralizes Fc-mediated activities. IdeS-mediated IgG degradation constitutes a novel therapeutic principle for the treatment of IgG-driven human diseases.

In addition to assessing the safety and tolerability of IdeS the study will also assess the efficacy of IdeS to significantly increase the ADAMTS13 activity and decrease the anti-ADAMTS13 antibody levels in patients diagnosed with asymptomatic antibody-mediated TTP with low ADAMTS13 activity.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety and Tolerability as Measured by Type, Frequency and Intensity of Adverse Events

    Data on AEs were obtained if spontaneously reported by the patient, if reported in response to an open question from the study personnel or if revealed by observation.

    A treatment emergent AE (TEAE) is defined as any AE occurring after administration of the IMP and within the time of the residual drug effect period (i.e. 30 days after IMP administration).

    AEs reported in ClinicalTrials.gov include TEAEs and post-treatment AEs, i.e. all AEs occurring after administration of IdeS until end of study.

    Please refer to Adverse Event section for details on reported AEs

    Measured: From dosing until end of follow up on day 64

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Number of Patients With Change From Baseline in ADAMTS13 Activity

    ADAMTS13 is an enzyme which is inhibited in patients with TTP. The efficacy of IdeS on ADAMTS13 activity was measured througout the study as change from baseline.

    Measured: From day of dosing until end of follow up on day 64

  2. Number of Patients With Change From Baseline in ADAMTS13 Antibody Levels

    The efficacy of IdeS on ADAMTS13 antibody cleaving was measured througout the study as change from baseline in ADAMTS13 antibody concentration.

    Measured: From day of dosing until end of follow up on day 64

  3. Number of Patients for Whom a Decreased ADAMTS13 Activity Returned to Normal Levels at Different Time-points in the Study

    The ADAMTS13 activity in TTP patients is decreased. The efficacy of IdeS on ADAMTS13 activity was assessed throughout the study to identify the time-point of return to normal levels.

    Measured: From day of dosing until end of follow up on day 64

  4. Number of Patients With Change From Baseline in Pharmacodynamics as Measured by Level of IgG

    IdeS cleaves IgG molecules. The concentration of uncleaved IgG in the patient's serum was measured throughout the study to determine change from baseline following IdeS administration.

    Measured: From day of dosing until end of follow up on day 64

  5. Number of Patients Showing IdeS Immunogenicity as Measured by Anti-drug Antibodies

    Most humans have been infected with S. pyogenes which is the origin of IdeS. It was therefore expected that patients in this study might have antibodies against IdeS before being exposed to IdeS in the study. The concentration of ant-IdeS antibodies was measured before dosing and throughout the study.

    Measured: From day of dosing until end of follow up on day 64

  6. Maximum Serum Concentration (Cmax) of IdeS

    The concentration of IdeS in serum was measured to identify the pharmacokinetic parameter Cmax of IdeS in TTP patients.

    Measured: From day of dosing until day 14

  7. Time-point for Maximum Serum Concentration of IdeS

    The concentration of IdeS in serum was measured to identify the pharmacokinetic parameter Tmax of IdeS in TTP patients. Tmax refers to the time-point when the serum concentration of IdeS reaches maximum.

    Measured: From day of dosing until day 14

  8. Number of Patients With Change From Baseline in Pharmacodynamics as Measured by Level of F(ab')2 Fragments

    The efficacy of IdeS can be measured as change from baseline in F(ab')2 fragments (i.e. the antigen binding fragment of IgG).

    Measured: From day of dosing until end of follow up on day 64

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing IdeS (0.25 mg/kg) and IdeS (0.50 mg/kg) in people with Purpura, Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic, run by Hansa Biopharma AB at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 2 inclusion and 14 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Sep 2019. 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 Kingdom. 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 13 Sep 2019). 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?

Safety and Tolerability as Measured by Type, Frequency and Intensity of Adverse Events (time frame: From dosing until end of follow up on day 64). 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 NCT02854059, 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 13 Sep 2019.
