About this study

Official title: The Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacodynamics, and Efficacy of Erythrocyte Encapsulated Thymidine Phosphorylase (EE-TP) in Patients With MNGIE

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability, action and effectiveness of repeated doses of Erythrocyte Encapsulated Thymidine Phosphorylase (EE-TP) for the treatment of patients with Mitochondrial Neurogastrointestinal Encephalomyopathy (MNGIE).

MNGIE is a rare inherited disease that mainly affects the digestive and nervous system and is caused by a defect in the function of an enzyme called thymidine phosphorylase. This loss of function causes certain molecules (thymidine and deoxyuridine) to accumulate in cells which leads to toxic damage to these cells. The disease can be confirmed by detecting variations (mutations) in the thymidine phosphorylase gene (TYMP). Currently there are no specific treatments for patients with MNGIE, whose effectiveness has been shown through clinical trials. The potential treatment for MNGIE offered in this trial is an enzyme replacement therapy, i.e. replacing functional thymidine phosphorylase. This treatment uses the patients own red blood cells in which thymidine phosphorylase is encapsulated to produce EE-TP (the study drug). EE-TP is created using a machine named a Red Cell Loader (RCL) and is then administered back to the patient.

Read the detailed description

This is a multi centre, multiple dose, open label study to investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamics and efficacy of EE-TP in patients with MNGIE. The study will be conducted in an open label manner with all patients receiving EE-TP.

The study will enrol 12 adult treatment naïve patients with MNGIE, aged 18 years or older at Screening. With Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC) approval, a further four juvenile patients (aged 16-17) will be recruited after at least 24 patient-months exposure to treatment. With IDMC approval, a further four juvenile patients (aged 12-15) will be recruited after at least 24 patient-months exposure to treatment in the 16-17 year old patient group.

Screening failures and patients withdrawing from the study may be substituted with IDMC approval. Patients who have previously received EE-TP on a 'compassionate use' basis may be included in the study, if they meet eligibility criteria; these patients will be additional and will not be included in the sample size of 12.

The total sample size of 12 adult treatment naïve patients is not based on a formal statistical assessment, but is dictated by practical considerations mainly due to the rarity of the condition.

All patients will be administered EE-TP by intravenous (IV) infusion. There are 3 planned dose levels:

  • Dose Level 1 (low dose): ~58 -65 x10^10 erythrocytes encapsulating 30 to 49 U TP/10^10 erythrocytes
  • Dose Level 2 (mid dose): ~58 -65 x10^10 erythrocytes encapsulating 50 to 69 U TP/10^10 erythrocytes
  • Dose Level 3 (high dose): ~58 -65 x10^10 erythrocytes encapsulating 70 to 90 U TP/10^10 erythrocytes

All patients will receive infusions at Dose Level 1 (low dose) for the first 2 treatment cycles. If metabolic correction is not achieved, the subsequent 2 treatment cycles will be infusions at Dose Level 2 (mid dose). If metabolic correction is still not achieved, treatment will advance to Dose Level 3 (high dose) for subsequent treatment cycles. If, at any time during this progression, metabolic correction is achieved, the patient will continue at the Dose Level in which metabolic correction has been achieved and there will be no further dose escalation.

Metabolic correction is defined as plasma thymidine <3 µmol/L and deoxyuridine <5 µmol/L (i.e., below the diagnostic levels for MNGIE).

The doses listed represent the planned doses; the starting dose will be Dose Level 1. It is anticipated that the highest dose will not exceed Dose Level 3; however, if metabolic correction is not achieved for an individual patient at this dose level, other modifications of dosing, such as increasing the number of erythrocytes administered in each infusion can be made.

Patients will be administered EE-TP every 3 weeks until the dose level achieving metabolic correction is identified. From Day 78 (or once metabolic correction has been achieved), it is planned that patients will receive EE-TP every 2 to 4 weeks until the end of the study. The interval between doses will not be shorter than 2 weeks ± 2 days. Dose selection will be flexible; continued pharmacodynamic assessment will enable dose optimization and further inform dose response models and establish the therapeutic window for the treatment.

Single doses of EE-TP will be administered on Day 0 then every 3 weeks until metabolic correction is achieved. The starting dose will be Dose Level 1, with potential subsequent dose levels of Dose Level 2 and Dose Level 3 dependent on whether metabolic correction is achieved or not. All doses will be administered IV.

From Day 78 (or once metabolic correction has been achieved), it is planned that patients will receive EE-TP every 2 to 4 weeks until the end of the study. Dose frequency may be reduced (e.g., from every 2 weeks to every 3 to 4 weeks) for individual patients based on ongoing review of emerging safety, tolerability, efficacy, and pharmacodynamic data. The interval between doses will not be shorter than 2 weeks ±2 days.

The dose level from day 78 onward will remain at the dose that achieved metabolic correction during the initial treatment phase (pre-day 78). In the advent of an increase in plasma metabolite levels (i.e. loss of metabolic correction), the frequency of dosing and/or dose level will be reviewed and adjusted accordingly.

Infusions with EE-TP will occur once every 2 to 4 weeks for 24 months.

Planned Enrolment/Screening (Run in) Duration: approximately 28 days (Days 120 to Day 92). Run-in period of 90 days (Days -91 to 0) for repeated evaluations of a number of assessments. Follow up, 90 days post dose. Planned Study Conduct Duration: approximately 31 months including screening, run-in period and post dose follow-up.

  4. To assess changes in clinical assessments as measured by Disability measured using the Rasch built Overall Disability Scale (RODS)

    Multifocal motor neuropathy measured using the Rasch built Overall Disability Scale (RODS). This is a structured questionnaire containing 24 items that assesses activity and social participation limitation and graded as follows:

    0 = impossible to perform

    1. = performed with difficulty
    2. = easily performed

    A low score = worsening disability

    Measured: Change from baseline (Day -91 to Day 0) to end of study treatment at 24 months

  5. To assess changes in clinical assessments as measured by ambulatory function measured using the timed 10 metre walk test

    The 10 metre walk test measure will be used to assess walking speed in metres per second over a short distance. Patients will walk without assistance for 10 metres (32.8 feet) and the time will be measured from 6 metres (19.7 feet; to allow for acceleration and deceleration). The 'start time' will be when the toes of the leading foot cross the 2 meter mark. The 'stop time' will be when the toes of the leading foot cross the 8 meter mark.

    The 10 meter walk test will be performed at the preferred walking speed or at the fastest speed and performed 3 times, with the average calculated.

    Measured: Change from baseline (Day -91 to Day 0) to end of study treatment at 24 months

  6. To assess changes in clinical assessments as measured by Clinical Global Impression - Improvement Scale (CGI I)

    Quality of life measured using the Clinical Global Impression - Improvement Scale (CGI I)

    The CGI-I will provide a global measurement of the severity of a patient's clinical condition and improvement or worsening during the clinical study. The Investigator will assess the patient's condition relative to a 7 point scale ranging from 1 to 7:

    1. = very much improved
    2. = much improved
    3. = minimally improved
    4. = no change
    5. = minimally worse
    6. = much worse
    7. = very much worse Each component of the CGI is rated separately; the instrument does not yield a global score.

    Measured: Change from baseline (Day -91 to Day 0) to end of study treatment at 24 months

  7. To assess changes in clinical assessments as measured by Quality of life measured using EuroQol 5-dimensions

    EuroQol 5D consisting of 5 dimensions measuring generic health status; mobility, self care, usual activities, pain and discomfort, and anxiety and depression are all used to measure Quality of Life. Each dimensions consists of 5 levels of grading:

    no problem slight problem moderate problem severe problem extreme problem. When completing the questionnaire, patients will be required to assign the correct grade for the questions present.

    Measured: Change from baseline (Day -91 to Day 0) to end of study treatment at 24 months

  8. To assess changes in clinical assessments as measured by gastrointestinal Symptoms symptoms using the Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) short form scales

    Gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms will be assessed using the PROMIS short form scales:

    GI belly pain GI diarrhoea GI disrupted swallowing GI gas and bloating GI gastroesophageal reflux GI nausea and vomiting For the assessment of 'bothersome' and 'interference' of GI symptoms, a 5 point categorical response scale ranging from 'not at all' to 'very much' will be employed. For assessment of 'frequency,' a 5 level frequency scale will be employed. For assessment of 'bowel controllability,' a 5 level capability scale ranging from 'without any difficulty' to 'unable to control' will be employed, and for other items, unique response sets that optimally suit the concept of interest will be used as necessary.

    A score of 50 represents the average for a healthy state; a higher score represents a worse outcome and a lower score better than average.

    Measured: Change from baseline (Day -91 to Day 0) to end of study treatment at 24 months

  9. To assess changes in clinical assessments as measured by Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC).

    Aspects of the patient's health will be measured using the PGIC which uses a 7-point scale to assesses if there has been an improvement or decline in clinical status:

    1. = very much improved
    2. = much improved
    3. = minimally improved
    4. = no change
    5. = minimally worse
    6. = much worse
    7. = very much worse PGIC assesses change in the severity of a patient's illness over a particular time interval

    Measured: Change from baseline (Day -91 to Day 0) to end of study treatment at 24 months

  10. To assess changes in clinical assessments as measured by reflex responses using neurological examination tests

    The reflex responses in:

    jaw jerk trigeminal nerve biceps brachioradialis triceps finger jerk knee jerk ankle jerk will be assessed according to the following 5 point scale: Grade 0 = no response; always abnormal, Grade 1+ = a slight but definitely present response; may or may not be normal, Grade 2+ = a brisk response; normal, Grade 3+ = a very brisk response; may or may not be normal, Grade 4+ = a tap elicits a repeating reflex (clonus); always abnormal.

    Measured: Change from baseline (Day -91 to Day 0) to end of study treatment at 24 months

  11. To assess changes in clinical assessments as measured by muscle strength using the MRC scale

    Muscle strength will be assessed according to the MRC scale in shoulder abduction, elbow flexion, wrist extension, first finger abduction, hip flexion, knee extension, and ankle dorsiflexion (MRC-sum 7 score) Grade 0 = no contraction Grade 1 = flicker or trace of contraction Grade 2 = active movement, with gravity eliminated Grade 3 = active movement against gravity Grade 4 = active movement against gravity and resistance Grade 5 = normal power

    Scores range from 0 (total paralysis) to 80 (normal strength).

    Measured: Change from baseline (Day -91 to Day 0) to end of study treatment at 24 months

  12. To assess changes in clinical assessments as measured by sensory impairment scoring

    Sensory impairment will be assessed using light touch, joint position sense, vibration sense, and pinprick using the following 3 point scale:

    Grade 0 = absent Grade 1 = impaired Grade 2 = normal

    A low score represents sensory disability.

    Measured: Change from baseline (Day -91 to Day 0) to end of study treatment at 24 months

  13. To assess changes in clinical assessments as measured by improvement of the most disabling symptom for each patient using the visual analogue scale (VAS)

    Improvement of the most disabling symptom for each patient will be assessed using the VAS which consists of a 20 cm vertical scale from 0 to 100, with the top end of the scale indicating the best health and the bottom end of the scale indicating the worst health. Patients will be required to identify a point on the scale to provide details of their health status.

    Measured: Change from baseline (Day -91 to Day 0) to end of study treatment at 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing EE-TP in people with Mitochondrial Diseases and Metabolic Disease, run by St George's, University of London.

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 18 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 11 Oct 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 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?

The safety of EE-TP as measured by the incidence, frequency, and severity of treatment emergent adverse events (time frame: Day -120 to Follow-up visit (90 days post-final dose) at 31 months). The study lists 11 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 NCT03866954, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 2023.
