About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double Blind, Dose-finding Study of Inhaled Oligosaccharide (OligoG) vs Placebo in Patients With Cystic Fibrosis

Randomized, double blind, placebo controlled study. The study has two parts:

Dose-finding part, followed by longer term follow-up (6 months)

Read the detailed description

Part 1: Randomized, double blind, placebo controlled dose-finding. Patients will be assigned to 1 of 3 doses OligoG, or to placebo, on top of Standard of Care. Patients will be treated for 12 weeks, followed by 4 weeks washout.The primary endpoint is relative change in % predicted FEV1. Secondary endpoints include additional spirometry parameters, exacerbation rate, Quality of Life, sputum rheology and microbiology, safety laboratory tests and adverse event reporting.

Part 2: Randomized double-blind 6 -month study, for longer term follow-up of the dose identified in Part 1. New patients will be recruited in part 2, in addition to patients who received placebo in Part 1. In addition to the endpoints studied in Part 1, Part 2 will include Lung Clearance Index (LCI), chest imaging by MRI or CT, and pharmaco-economic parameters.

What is being measured

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

  1. Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1)

    the amount of air a person can forcefully exhale in one second

    Measured: Change from before to after 12 weeks treatment (Part 1) and 26 weeks (Part 2)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Lung Clearance Index (LCI) (Part two only)

    Lung clearance index (LCI) measured by multiple breath washout is a sensitive measure of ventilation inhomogeneity.

    Measured: Change from before to after 26 weeks treatment

  2. Sputum culture microbiology

    Reduction in Pseudomonas Aeruginosa CFU Counts and total counts

    Measured: Change from before to after 12 weeks treatment (Part 1) and 26 weeks (Part 2)

  3. Pulmonary Exacerbations

    Acute pulmonary exacerbations

    Measured: Change from before to after 12 weeks treatment (Part 1) and 26 weeks (Part 2)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing OligoG Dry powder for inhalation in people with Cystic Fibrosis, run by AlgiPharma AS at 1 site in Germany.

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 12 inclusion and 17 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jun 2022. 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 Germany. 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 combined 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.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1) (time frame: Change from before to after 12 weeks treatment (Part 1) and 26 weeks (Part 2)). 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 30 Jun 2022.
