About this study

Official title: Alpha-1 Antitrypsin (AAT) Enhances Islet Autograft Survival

Primary objective: To describe and compare the safety and efficacy of treatment with AAT in chronic pancreatitis patients who undergo total pancreatectomy and islet autotransplantation (TP-IAT).

Read the detailed description

The goal of this study is to assess whether infusion of Prolastin-C during peri-transplant period can enhance islet autograft survival and function in chronic pancreatitis patients who have total pancreatectomy and islet autotransplantation. This is a prospective, controlled, double-blind study. The primary endpoint will be area under the curve for the serum C-peptide level during the first 4 hours of an mixed meal tolerance test (MMTT), normalized by the number of islet equivalents (IEQ)/kg at day 365±14 after the transplant.

What participants receive

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

  • Prolastin-CDrug

    Also called AAT

    Patients will receive Prolastin-C at 60mg/kg on day 0, 7, 14, and 21 days of transplantation

  • PlaceboDrug

    Also called Saline

    Patients will receive saline on day 0, 7, 14, and 21 days of transplantation

Study groups in NCT02947087
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Prolastin-CActive comparatorSubjects will be given Prolastin-C intravenously at 60mg/kg weekly for 4 weeks.
Receives: Drug: Prolastin-C
PlaceboPlacebo comparatorSubjects will be given Saline weekly for 4 weeks.
Receives: Drug: Placebo

What is being measured

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

  1. Islet Graft Function

    Islet graft function will be measured by 4 hour mixed meal tolerance test (MMTT) at 365 days post transplantation. Specific measurement is the C-peptide area under the curve (AUC)

    Measured: 365 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Prolastin-C in people with Chronic Pancreatitis, run by Medical University of South Carolina 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 3 inclusion and 3 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 29 Jun 2023. 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. 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 combined 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.

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 9 May 2023). 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?

Islet Graft Function (time frame: 365 days). 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 NCT02947087, 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 29 Jun 2023.
