What is being measured

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

  1. Change in induced sputum differential neutrophil count from baseline to Week 12

    Measured: 12 weeks

  2. Number of Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) in each treatment group leading to treatment discontinuation.

    Measured: 12 Weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Change in induced sputum neutrophil differential count from baseline

    Measured: 14 weeks

  2. Change in St Georges Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) from baseline

    Questionnaire designed to measure impact of COPD on overall health, daily life and perceived well-being. Scores range from 0 -100 with higher scores indicating more limitations.

    Measured: 14 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing DS102 in people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, run by Afimmune at 3 sites in United Kingdom.

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 4 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 31 Jan 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in United Kingdom. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Change in induced sputum differential neutrophil count from baseline to Week 12 (time frame: 12 weeks). 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?
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 31 Jan 2020.
