  • The subject has hepatic insufficiency as demonstrated by ALT (alanine aminotransferase [SGPT]) or AST (aspartate aminotransferase [SGOT]) greater than 3 times the upper limit of normal.
  • The subject has any severe, acute, or chronic medical conditions and/or psychiatric conditions and/or laboratory abnormalities that would impart, in the judgment of the investigator, excess risk associated with study participation or study drug administration that would deem the subject inappropriate for study participation.
Show all 12Show fewer
  • The subject has a known allergy to or has had an adverse reaction to dextran exposure.
  • The subject has received an investigational product within 30 days prior to the Tc 99m tilmanocept administration (Day 0).

About this study

Official title: A Comparison of Tc 99m Tilmanocept Quantitative Imaging With Immunohistochemical (IHC) Analysis of CD206 Expression in Synovial Tissue From Subjects Clinically Diagnosed With Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA)

This study is a comparison of quantitative Tc 99m tilmanocept imaging with IHC analysis of CD206 expression in synovial tissue of RA subjects.

Read the detailed description

This is a Manocept Platform phase 2b, open-label, multi-center, multinational, non-randomized, single-dose study designed to assess the relationship between quantitative Tc 99m tilmanocept planar imaging and synovial histopathology in subjects clinically diagnosed with RA.

Being tested
Tc 99m tilmanocept
Keywords
tilmanocept, RA imaging, synovial biopsy
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Tc 99m tilmanoceptDrug

    Also called Lymphoseek

    Tilmanocept is a radiotracer that accumulates in macrophages by binding to a mannose binding receptor that resides on the surface.

Study groups in NCT04078191
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
RA Subjects on Stable TherapyExperimentalRA subjects who are on stable treatment will receive a single dose of 150 mcg tilmanocept radiolabeled with 10 mCi Tc 99m.
Receives: Drug: Tc 99m tilmanocept

What is being measured

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

  1. Correlation Between Joint-specific Tilmanocept Uptake and CD206 Expression

    The correlation between joint-specific tilmanocept uptake value (TUVjoint) and the number and area fraction of CD206 expression as determined by IHC assessment.

    Measured: Through study completion, up to 45 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Correlation Between Joint-specific Tilmanocept Uptake and CD68 and CD163 Expression

    The correlation between TUVjoint and the number and area fraction of CD68 and CD163 determined by IHC assessments.

    Measured: Through study completion, up to 45 days

  2. Classification of Synovial Anatomic Pathotype by IHC Assessment

    Classification of synovial anatomic pathology into

    • Lympho-myeloid
    • Diffuse myeloid
    • Pauci-immune fibroid types as a function of CD68, CD163, CD206, CD3, CD20, CD55, and TE7 expression determined by IHC assessments using a polytomous logistic regression model.

    Measured: Through study completion, up to 45 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Tc 99m tilmanocept in people with Rheumatoid Arthritis, run by Navidea Biopharmaceuticals at 4 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 9 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jan 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in United States, United Kingdom. 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 8 Jan 2025). 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?

Correlation Between Joint-specific Tilmanocept Uptake and CD206 Expression (time frame: Through study completion, up to 45 days). 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 8 Jan 2025.
