About this study

Official title: A Randomized Double-blind Placebo-controlled Phase 1 Study on the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics/-Dynamics of Escalating Single Intravenous Doses of ADRECIZUMAB (HAM8101) in Healthy Male Subjects

This is the first clinical trial with ADRECIZUMAB. The purpose of this clinical trial to identify safety and tolerability of different doses of ADRECIZUMAB in healthy volunteers.

Read the detailed description

Adrenomedullin (ADM) is a natural occurring 52 amino acid peptide which is mainly expressed in endothelial and smooth muscle cells. ADM plasma levels are increased in patients with sepsis and related with severity of disease. ADM is a key regulator of vasotonus and of endothelial integrity in sepsis.

ADRECIZUMAB is an antibody against the N-terminus of ADM which only partially inhibits the bioactivity of ADM. Several septic animal studies have shown that administration of ADRECIZUMAB leads to reduced catecholamine demand, improved renal function, improved fluid balance and improved survival.

The administration of ADRECIZUMAB to rodents and non-human primates (NHP) has been tolerated very well. Single dose and repeated administrations over 14 days to rats and NHP in the GLP toxicology and safety study have not shown any clinical side-effects or histopathological findings.

Based on these data the starting dose for human beings should be 0.5 mg/kg ADRECIZUMAB as single infusion over 1 hour and should be increased up to 8 mg/kg.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Adrecizumab in people with Healthy Volunteers, run by Radboud University Medical Center at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 18 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 15 Mar 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 Netherlands. 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 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.

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?

Safety and tolerability expressed in total number of treatment related (serious) adverse events (time frame: 3 months follow-up period). 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 15 Mar 2017.
