About this study

The trial evaluates the safety and efficacy of one and two doses of the study drug, Allocetra-OTS, in patients who have been diagnosed with sepsis.

Read the detailed description

The study drug, Allocetra-OTS is a cell-based therapeutic composed of donor apoptotic cells. The product contains allogeneic mononuclear enriched cells in the form of a liquid suspension with at least 40% early apoptotic cells. The study drug, Allocetra-OTS, is based on the known activity of apoptotic cells to contribute to maintenance of peripheral immune homeostasis. As altered immune response is associated with organ dysfunction in sepsis, the possibility is being tested that the study drug can improve the condition of sepsis.

    • Days with ≥ 100x109/L platelets count, and/or
    • Days with ≤ three times normal ALT (Alanine transaminase) and AST ••(Aspartate Aminotransferase) levels and/or ≤ two times normal bilirubin levels and/or
    • Days with return to GCS (Glasgow Coma Scale) 15

    Measured: 28 days follow up

  2. Mortality

    Incidence rate of Moratlity from any cause

    Measured: 28 days follow up

  3. Hospitalization

    Cumulative days in Intensive care unit (ICU) or Intermediate Care Units (IMU) and/or in hospital.

    Measured: 28 days follow up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Allocetra-OTS in people with Organ Dysfunction Syndrome Sepsis, run by Enlivex Therapeutics Ltd. at 1 site in Israel.

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 6 inclusion and 12 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 19 May 2020. 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 Israel. 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?

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?

Assessment of safety by determining the number of participants with any Adverse Events (AE),Serious Adverse Events (SAE) and fatal SAE (time frame: 28 days follow up). 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 NCT03925857, 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 19 May 2020.
