About this study

Official title: A Phase 1/2 Study of MPH966, an Oral Neutrophil Elastase Inhibitor, for Prevention of Graft-versus-host Disease After Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

The purpose of this study is evaluate the safety and tolerability of MPH966, a neutrophil elastase inhibitor, and its ability to prevent graft-versus-host disease after hematopoietic stem cell transplant.

Read the detailed description

Phase 1 is a 3+3 dose escalation study to determine the safety and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of MPH966 in patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT). We will evaluate up to 4 doses: 60 mg po bid, 120 mg po bid, 180 mg po bid, and 240 mg po bid. Safety, tolerability, and efficacy will be assessed in real time and pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics after each dose cohort before escalating to the next cohort.

Phase 2 is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to determine the clinical efficacy of MPH966 vs. placebo in preventing acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after HCT, using the RP2D as determined by the phase 1 trial.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing MPH966 in people with Hematologic Malignancy, run by Nelson Chao at 1 site in United States.

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 19 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Mar 2020.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 United States. 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 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.

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?

Incidence of grade 2-4 acute Graft vs Host Disease (GVHD) requiring systemic therapy (time frame: day 100). 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 20 Mar 2020.
