About this study

Official title: An Open-Label, Dose Escalation Study of the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of a Single Subcutaneous Dose of BCD-089 in Healthy Volunteers

This is an open label, phase 1, "3+3" dose escalating study of tolerability, safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and immunogenicity of a single subcutaneous injection of the novel monoclonal antibody against the interleukin-6 receptor - BCD-089. The study will enroll 19 healthy male volunteers.

Read the detailed description

IL-6 is a new potential therapeutic target which plays important role in pathogenesis of several autoimmune disorders including rheumatoid arthritis. BCD-089 is a novel fully human monoclonal antibody against the interleukin-6 receptor developed by JCS BIOCAD (Russia) which is now on the first step of clinical evaluation. BCD-089-1 study is the first-in-human clinical trial which is intended to evaluate tolerability, safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and immunogenicity of BCD-089 when used as a single step-by-step escalating subcutaneous dose in healthy male volunteers. During this study it is expected to determine diapason of safety doses of BCD-089 (incl. MTD) which thereafter can be evaluated in phase 2 studies.

Study groups in NCT03103438
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Cohort 1Experimentalhis cohort includes one subject who will receive the maximum safe starting dose of BCD-089 (0.06 mg/kg) subcutaneously. If the dose limitating toxicity occurs within the first seven days after injection the study will be stopped. If there is no DLT within mentioned above period then Cohort no.2 is included.
Receives: Biological: BCD-089
Cohort 2ExperimentalThis cohort includes 3 subjects who will receive the single subcutaneous injection of BCD-089 at a dose of 0.3 mg/kg.If at least 2 subjects are observed to have DLT, this dose level is defined as the MTD (unless only 3 patients have been treated at that level, in which case it is the tentative MTD). If 0 of the 3 subjects are observed to have DLT, the dose level is escalated one step for the next cohort no.3 of 3 subjects, and the process continues as above. If exactly 1 of the 3 subjects treated show DLT, 3 additional subjects are treated at the current dose level. If none of these additional 3 patients show DLT, the dose level is escalated for the next Cohort no. 3.
Receives: Biological: BCD-089
Cohort 3ExperimentalThis cohort includes 3 subjects who will receive the single subcutaneous injection of BCD-089 at a dose of 0.625 mg/kg.If at least 2 subjects are observed to have DLT, this dose level is defined as the MTD (unless only 3 patients have been treated at that level, in which case it is the tentative MTD). If 0 of the 3 subjects are observed to have DLT, the dose level is escalated one step for the next cohort no. 4 of 3 subjects, and the process continues as above. If exactly 1 of the 3 subjects treated show DLT, 3 additional subjects are treated at the current dose level. If none of these additional 3 patients show DLT, the dose level is escalated for the next Cohort no. 4.
Receives: Biological: BCD-089
Cohort 4ExperimentalThis cohort includes 3 subjects who will receive the single subcutaneous injection of BCD-089 at a dose of 1.0 mg/kg. If at least 2 subjects are observed to have DLT, this dose level is defined as the MTD (unless only 3 patients have been treated at that level, in which case it is the tentative MTD). If 0 of the 3 subjects are observed to have DLT, the dose level is escalated one step for the next cohort no. 5 of 3 subjects, and the process continues as above. If exactly 1 of the 3 subjects treated show DLT, 3 additional subjects are treated at the current dose level. If none of these additional 3 patients show DLT, the dose level is escalated for the next Cohort no. 5.
Receives: Biological: BCD-089
Cohort 5ExperimentalThis cohort includes 3 subjects who will receive the single subcutaneous injection of BCD-089 at a dose of 1.6 mg/kg. If at least 2 subjects are observed to have DLT, this dose level is defined as the MTD (unless only 3 patients have been treated at that level, in which case it is the tentative MTD). If 0 of the 3 subjects are observed to have DLT, the dose level is escalated one step for the next cohort no. 6 of 3 subjects, and the process continues as above. If exactly 1 of the 3 subjects treated show DLT, 3 additional subjects are treated at the current dose level. If none of these additional 3 patients show DLT, the dose level is escalated for the next Cohort no. 6.
Receives: Biological: BCD-089
Cohort 6ExperimentalThis cohort includes 3 subjects who will receive the single subcutaneous injection of BCD-089 at a dose of 2.2 mg/kg. If at least 2 subjects are observed to have DLT, this dose level is defined as the MTD (unless only 3 patients have been treated at that level, in which case it is the tentative MTD). If 0 of the 3 subjects are observed to have DLT, the dose level is escalated one step for the next cohort no. 7 of 3 subjects, and the process continues as above. If exactly 1 of the 3 subjects treated show DLT, 3 additional subjects are treated at the current dose level. If none of these additional 3 patients show DLT, the dose level is escalated for the next Cohort no. 7.
Receives: Biological: BCD-089
Cohort 7ExperimentalThis cohort includes 3 subjects who will receive the single subcutaneous injection of BCD-089 at a dose of 2.9 mg/kg. If at least 2 subjects are observed to have DLT, this dose level is defined as the MTD (unless only 3 patients have been treated at that level, in which case it is the tentative MTD). If exactly 1 of the 3 subjects treated show DLT, 3 additional subjects are treated at the current dose level.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BCD-089 in people with Healthy, run by Biocad at 1 site in Russia.

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 13 inclusion and 12 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 26 Feb 2021. 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 Russia. 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 26 Feb 2021). 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?

Area Under the Plasma Concentration of BCD-089-time Curve From Zero (0) Hours to 1680 Hours After the Single Subcutaneous Injection of BCD-089 (time frame: 70 days). 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 26 Feb 2021.
