About this study

Official title: MD1003 in Adrenomyeloneuropathy : a Randomized Double Blind Placebo Controlled Study

The primary objective of the trial is to demonstrate the superiority of biotin at 300 mg/day over placebo in the clinical improvement (walking tests) of patients with adrenomyeloneuropathy

Read the detailed description

AMN and progressive multiple sclerosis share some similarities including progressive spastic paraparesis and secondary energy failure leading to progressive axonal degeneration. Therefore, it was hypothesized that high doses of biotin might be efficient in patients with AMN.

What is being measured

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

  1. Mean change of 2 minutes walking test (2MWT) between Months 12 and baseline

    Measured: Baseline and 12 Months

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Proportion of patients with improved 2-Minutes-Walk-Tests (2MWT) of at least 20%

    at Months 9 and Months 12 compared to the best value among screening and baseline.

    Measured: Baseline, 9 months, 12 months

  2. Proportion of patients with improved TW25 (time to walk 25 feet) of at least 20%

    at Months 9 and Months 12 compared to the best value among screening and baseline

    Measured: Baseline, 9 months, 12 months

  3. Mean Change in TW25 (time to walk 25 feet)

    Measured: Baseline and 12 months

  4. Timed up and Go test (TUG)

    Measured: 12 Months

  5. Euroqol EQ-5D questionnaire

    Quality of Life questionnaire

    Measured: 12 months

  6. Qualiveen Questionnaire

    Qualiveen to evaluate urinary function

    Measured: 12 Months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing MD1003 100 mg capsule in people with Adrenomyeloneuropathy and Adrenoleukodystrophy, run by MedDay Pharmaceuticals SA at 4 sites in 3 countries.

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 12 inclusion and 6 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 9 Oct 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in France, Germany, Spain. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

Mean change of 2 minutes walking test (2MWT) between Months 12 and baseline (time frame: Baseline and 12 Months). 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 9 Oct 2017.
