About this study

Official title: A Phase 2 Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, Exploratory Efficacy, and Pharmacokinetics of Orally Administered JBPOS0101 for Refractory Infantile Spasms Patients

A Phase 2 Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, Exploratory Efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of Orally Administered JBPOS0101 for Refractory Infantile Spasms Patients.

Read the detailed description

This open label, multicenter study allowed JBPOS0101 (investigational product) to be given as either add-on therapy or monotherapy for patients with refractory infantile spasms. The design and choice of study population of this Phase 2 clinical study was based on the need to provide initial safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and efficacy outcomes of the investigational product for future clinical studies.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
JBPOS0101 (investigational product)ExperimentalDuring Treatment Period 1, the IP was administered at 6 mg/kg, per oral (PO), twice a day (BID), once in the morning and 12 hours following the morning dose during the first 7 days of Treatment Period 1. Starting from the PM dose on Visit 3, the dose was escalated and patients received the Investigational Product (JBPOS0101) (IP) at a dose of 9 mg/kg orally BID. Starting on Day 15, the dose was escalated again and patients received the IP at a dose of 15 mg/kg orally BID until the end of Treatment Period 1 (Day 28). Each dose of the IP was administered after at least a 2-hour fast. Food was given 2 hours after dosing.
Receives: Drug: JBPOS0101

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing JBPOS0101 in people with Refractory Infantile Spasms, run by Bio-Pharm Solutions Co., Ltd. at 23 sites in 2 countries.

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 16 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 22 Aug 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 23 sites in United States, South Korea. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 16 Feb 2023). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) (time frame: Day 1 to Day 56). 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 22 Aug 2024.
