About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Multiple Ascending Dose Study to Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of GX-I7 in HPV-infected Female Volunteers

This is a phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple ascending dose study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of GX-I7 in HPV-infected female volunteers

Read the detailed description

The subjects who are adequately eligible to attend this clinical trial via screening will be assigned to four cohorts (five if necessary) and administered a single dose of GX-I7 solution or placebo drug for intravaginal injection at the visit 3 (Day0) and 7 (Day28). After completing scheduled tests at the visit 6 (Day 14), safety-related data of each cohort will be evaluated by Independent Safety Monitoring Committee (SMC). Dose escalation will proceed under the principal investigator, medical monitor, and the sponsor's mutual approval, referring to SMC's evaluation.

What participants receive

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

  • GX-I7Drug

    Also called IL-7-hyFc

    Interleukin-7 (IL-7) is T cell growth factor that can be used for treating lymphopenia patients. GX-I7 is a protein drug recombining human IL-7 and hybrid Fc (hyFc). HyFc made by Genexine is composed of hinge-CH2 region of Immunoglobulin D (IgD) and CH2-CH3 region of Immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4). The recombined region is not exposed and each region's characteristics can reduce immunogenicity and improve the efficacy of drug. Consequently, it will be able to treat the patients with lymphopenia in effective ways.

  • PlaceboDrug

    Also called GX-I7 vehicle (formulation buffer)

    This is the placebo of GX-I7 described above.

What is being measured

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

  1. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of GX-I7 compared to placebo.

    Local and systemic adverse events will be assessed by Department of AIDS (Table for Grading the Severity of Adult and Pediatric Adverse Events, 2004) and Toxicity Grading Scale for Healthy Volunteers Enrolled in Preventive Vaccine Clinical Trials, respectively. Also, vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate, and body temperature), physical examination, laboratory tests, upper abdomen ultrasound, immunogenicity test, and concentration of the investigational drug in blood sample will be assessed throughout the screening and study period.

    Measured: 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Type of Humanpapillo Virus (HPV) Persistent Infection of Human Papilloma Virus (HPV)

    Perform liquid-based cytology after each injections

    Measured: at week 0 (Day 0) and week 4 (Day 28)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing GX-I7 in people with Human Papillomavirus, run by Genexine, Inc. at 4 sites in South Korea.

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 4 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Oct 2018. 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 South Korea. 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?

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of GX-I7 compared to placebo. (time frame: 12 weeks). 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 23 Oct 2018.
