  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Subjects must meet all of the following criteria:
  • Male or female, aged 18 to 75 years inclusive
  • WHO Group 1 PAH related to one of the following conditions:
  • Idiopathic

  • If a subject has undergone RHC within 3 months before Screening, the waveform results will serve as baseline data only if they meet the entry criteria and the RHC at Screening will not be repeated. In case PAWP cannot be well measured during RHC, left ventricular end diastolic pressure will be tested by left heart catheterization.

Medically acceptable methods of contraception include oral, implantable, or injectable contraceptives (starting 2 months before dosing); diaphragm with vaginal spermicide; intrauterine device; condom and partner using vaginal spermicide; and surgical sterilization (6 months after surgery). Women who are surgically sterile or those who are postmenopausal for at least 2 years are not considered to be of childbearing potential. Eligible male and female subjects must agree not to participate in a conception process (i.e. active attempt to become pregnant or to impregnate, sperm donation, in vitro fertilization) during the study and for 90 days after the last dose of study drug.

What is being measured

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

  1. The incidence of Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAE) in subjects assigned to GMA301 compared with those assigned to placebo.

    Measured: Through study completion (up to 22 weeks)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Pharmacokinetics (Area under the serum concentration- time curve from time zero to the last measurable concentration)

    Measured: Through study completion (up to 22 weeks)

  2. Comparison of GMA301 treatment effect at Week 12 versus baseline regarding the pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) based on right heart catheterization (RHC)

    Measured: Baseline to Week 12

  3. Comparing 6MWT distance

    Measured: Baseline to Week 12

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Q4W GMA301 IV injections (300 mg), Q4W GMA301 IV injections (600 mg) and Q4W GMA301 IV injections (1000 mg) in people with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension, run by Gmax Biopharm LLC. at 7 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 22 inclusion and 42 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Jan 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in China, 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. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jianjun Wu (+8618358737112, jianjunwu@gmaxbiopharm.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The incidence of Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAE) in subjects assigned to GMA301 compared with those assigned to placebo. (time frame: Through study completion (up to 22 weeks)). 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 14 Jan 2022.
