  • Ages 16 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Patients must meet the following criteria to participate in this study:

  2. A confirmed diagnosis of nmCF with a documented G542X or phenotypically similar nonsense mutation, homozygote, or compound heterozygote with one of the specified mutations. For heterozygotes, one mutation has to be G542X or phenotypically similar nonsense mutation, and the second mutation could be and Class 1 or Class 2 mutation. Patients with one G542X or phenotypically similar nonsense allele and a second allele that is not in the above list may be potentially allowed but only after discussion on a case by case basis with and written approval from the Sponsor.

Patients with any of the following characteristics/conditions will not be included in the study:

  1. Participation in clinical study including administration of any investigational drug or device in the last 30 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to investigational product dosing in the current study
  2. History of any organ transplantation
  3. Major surgery within 180 days (6 months) of Screening
  4. Patients without documented prior aminoglycoside exposure who have a mitochondrial mutation that has been shown to increase sensitivity to aminoglycosides
  5. Known allergy to any aminoglycoside
  6. Patients with any abnormality at ENT screening, that indicates the presence of a vestibular toxicity associated with prior exposure to aminoglycosides.
  7. Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI)-H score at screening >16

About this study

Official title: A Phase 2 Open Label Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Multiple Dose Levels of Subcutaneously Administered ELX-02 in Patients With Cystic Fibrosis With at Least One G542X Allele

This is a Phase 2 open label study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, and PD of multiple dose levels of SC administered ELX-02 with and without ivacaftor in patients with CF with at least one G542X allele or phenotypically similar nonsense allele.

Up to 16 patients will be enrolled in the trial; up 4 patients will be homozygotes to G542X, and the remaining patients will be compound heterozygotes with G542X or phenotypically similar nonsense mutation and any Class 1 or Class 2 mutation.

Each patient will receive 5 escalating doses as follows:

  • 0.3 mg/kg per day SC
  • 0.75 mg/kg per day SC
  • 1.5 mg/kg per day SC
  • An individualized dose, as high as 3.0 mg/kg per day SC, based upon the patients observed safety and tolerability, PK at previous doses and the results of laboratory tests
  • ELX-02 1.5 mg/kg per day SC plus 150 mg ivacaftor every 12 bid

What is being measured

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

  1. AEs associated with different dose levels of ELX-02

    Measured: From the time of first dosing through the follow-up visit, an average of approximately 9 weeks

  2. Area under the plasma concentration curve from time zero to 24 hours (AUC0-24)

    Full PK profile 8 blood samples up to 24 hours

    Measured: Day 1 of treatment periods 1, 2, 3, and 4

  3. Maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) on Day 1

    Full PK profile 8 blood samples over 24 hours

    Measured: Day 1 of treatment periods 1, 2, 3, and 4

  4. Peak observed plasma concentration (Cpeak) over time

    Measured: Days 1, 2 and 7 of treatment periods 1-3, Days 1, 2, 7, and 14 of treatment period 4, sparse sampling, blood sampling at 30 min and 1 hour post-dose

  5. Trough observed plasma concentrations (Cpredose) over time

    Measured: Days 1, 2 and 7 of treatment periods 1-3, Days 1, 2, 7 and 14 of treatment period 4, sparse blood sampling at pre-dose

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Changes from baseline in sweat chloride concentration

    Measured: From baseline to Day 7 of treatment periods 1-3, and Days 7 and 14 of treatment period 4

  2. Changes from baseline in percent predicted forced expiratory volume (ppFEV1)

    Measured: From baseline to Day 7 of treatment periods 1-3, and Days 7 and 14 of treatment period 4

  3. Changes from baseline in percent predicted forced vital capacity (ppFVC)

    Measured: From baseline to Day 7 of treatment periods 1-3, and Days 7 and 14 of treatment period 4

  4. Changes from baseline in percent predicted forced expiratory flow at 25-75% (ppFEF25-75)

    Measured: From baseline to Day 7 of treatment periods 1-3, and Days 7 and 14 of treatment period 4

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing ELX-02 and Ivacaftor in people with Cystic Fibrosis, run by Eloxx Pharmaceuticals, Inc. at 9 sites in 3 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 21 Aug 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 sites in Israel, Australia, Germany. 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?

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?

AEs associated with different dose levels of ELX-02 (time frame: From the time of first dosing through the follow-up visit, an average of approximately 9 weeks). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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 21 Aug 2023.
