About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Multi-Center, Open-Label, Dose Escalation Study of Thrombosomes® in Bleeding Thrombocytopenic Patients in Three Cohorts

The study evaluates the safety and potential early signals of efficacy of allogeneic Thrombosomes in bleeding thrombocytopenic patients

Read the detailed description

The primary objective of the present study was to assess the safety of increasing dose levels of Thrombosomes in bleeding patients with thrombocytopenia. The secondary objective was to explore early signals of clinical efficacy of Thrombosomes in this population. The secondary objectives included: 1) Evaluation of the impact on WHO (World Health Organization) bleeding scores at various timepoints; 2) number and type of blood products infused through day 6 follow-up period; and 3) post hoc analysis of hematology, coagulation, and chemistry.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Patients With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAE)

    Overall frequency of (and number and percentage of patients who experience) TEAEs including serious adverse drug reactions and treatment-related events specifically defining the study's suspension and stopping rules (i.e., thromboembolic events, acute lung injury, anaphylaxis, and death).

    Measured: 30 days

  2. Number of Patients With Treatment-Emergent Serious Adverse Events (TESAE)

    Overall frequency of (and number and percentage of patients who experience) TESAEs including serious adverse drug reactions and treatment-related events specifically defining the study's suspension and stopping rules (i.e., thromboembolic events, acute lung injury, anaphylaxis, and death).

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Number of WHO Bleeding Sites With Status Change From Baseline

    Grade-level change in WHO bleeding assessment score at most severe bleeding site from baseline; WHO bleeding assessment score ranges from 1 to 4, with higher numbers indicating worse bleeding.

    Measured: 1, 6, 24 hours, and Day 6 post infusion

  2. Number of Patients With Grade-level Change in WHO Bleeding Assessment Score From Baseline - Patients WHO Score at Primary Bleeding Site

    Patients WHO score at primary bleeding site. WHO bleeding assessment score ranges from 1 to 4, with higher numbers indicating worse bleeding. The maximum WHO bleeding assessment score for patients on study was 2.

    Measured: Baseline, 1, 6, 24 hours, and Day 6 post infusion

  3. Number of Patients With a Shift From Baseline in Hemoglobin

    Shift from baseline clinical status of hemoglobin measure at different timepoints post infusion

    Measured: 1, 6, 24 hours, Day 3, 4, 5, and 6 post infusion

  4. Number of Patients With a Shift From Baseline in Hematocrit

    Shift from baseline clinical status of hematocrit measure at different timepoints post infusion

    Measured: 1, 6, 24 hours, Day 3, 4, 5, and 6 post infusion

  5. Number or Patients With a Shift From Baseline in Coagulation Measures 24 Hours Post Infusion

    Shift from baseline clinical status of coagulation measure at 24 hours post infusion for each cohort

    Measured: 24 hours post infusion

  6. Median Platelet Counts

    Median Platelet Counts Per Time Point

    Measured: Screening, Baseline, 1, 6, 24 hours, Day 3, 4, 5, and 6 post infusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Thrombosomes in people with Thrombocytopenia and Hematologic Diseases, run by Cellphire Therapeutics, Inc. at 7 sites in 2 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 3 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 14 Apr 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in United States, Norway. 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 14 Apr 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?

Number of Patients With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAE) (time frame: 30 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT03394755, 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 14 Apr 2023.
