About this study

Official title: Open-label Non-comparative Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of BCD-085 (JSC BIOCAD, Russia) in Combination With Ursodeoxycholic Acid in Patients With Primary Biliary Cholangitis

BCD-085 is an innovative drug, anti-interleukin-17 monoclonal antibody. The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BCD-085 in patients with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC).

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label proof-of-concept phase 2A study. The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BCD-085 in combination with ursodeoxycholic acid in patients with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) with compensated liver function with an inadequate (suboptimal) response to ursodeoxycholic acid.

In this study the inadequate (suboptimal) response to ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) is defined as screening alkaline phosphatase (ALP) level > 1.67 ULN (the upper limit of normal) despite treatment with UDCA in stable dose for at least 6 months before signing the ICF.

What participants receive

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

  • BCD-085Biological

    All patients will receive BCD-085 (subcutaneous injections) once a week during the period of induction of remission, then once every 2 weeks during the period of remission maintenance and then once every 4 weeks during the period of accumulation of treatment effect. All patients will receive ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) in standard dose 13-15 mg/kg/day.

What is being measured

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

  1. The proportion of patients with alkaline phosphatase (ALP) decrease > 40% from Baseline (day 1 week 0) or with normal ALP level (Barcelona criteria) after 24 weeks of treatment with BCD-085 in combination with UDCA.

    Biochemical response is defined as ALP decrease > 40% from Baseline or normalisation of ALP level (Barcelona criteria).

    Measured: week 24

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing BCD-085 in people with Liver Cirrhosis, Biliary, run by Biocad at 3 sites 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 7 inclusion and 20 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Oct 2019. 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 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 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 was stopped early (reason given: Sponosor's decision). Results are not available in the source record.

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 proportion of patients with alkaline phosphatase (ALP) decrease > 40% from Baseline (day 1 week 0) or with normal ALP level (Barcelona criteria) after 24 weeks of treatment with BCD-085 in combination with UDCA. (time frame: week 24). 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 11 Oct 2019.
