About this study

Official title: A Phase 2/3, Randomized, Parallel-group, Placebo-controlled, Double-Blind Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of CT-P59 in Combination With Standard of Care in Outpatients With SARS-CoV-2 Infection

This was a Phase 2/3 study to assess the efficacy about therapeutic effect of CT-P59 to the mild to moderate SARS-CoV-2 infected patients and the safety during after study drug injection.

Read the detailed description

CT-P59 is a human monoclonal antibody targeted against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike protein as a treatment for SARS-CoV-2 infection, which is manufactured by recombinant deoxyribonucleic acid technology in a Chinese hamster ovary mammalian cell line. This Phase 2/3, randomized, parallel-group, placebo-controlled, double-blind study was designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and therapeutic potential of CT-P59 in outpatients with mild to moderate SARS-CoV-2 infection, not requiring supplemental oxygen therapy.

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of Patients With Clinical Symptom Requiring Hospitalization, Oxygen Therapy, or Experiencing Mortality Due to SARS-CoV-2 Infection (Part 1)

    To assess the clinically meaningful therapeutic efficacy of CT-P59 as determined by proportion of patients with clinical symptom requiring hospitalization, oxygen therapy, or experiencing mortality due to SARS-CoV-2 infection up to Day 28

    Measured: Up to Day 28

  2. Proportion of Patients With Negative Conversion in Nasopharyngeal Swab Specimen Based on RT-qPCR at Each Visit (Part 1)

    To assess the potential therapeutic efficacy of CT-P59 as determined by proportion of negative conversion in nasopharyngeal swab specimen based on RT-qPCR up to Day 14

    Measured: Up to Day 14

  3. Time to Negative Conversion in Nasopharyngeal Swab Specimen (Part 1)

    To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of CT-P59 as determined by time to negative conversion by RT-qPCR up to Day 14

    Measured: Up to Day 14

  4. Time to Clinical Recovery (Part 1)

    To assess the potential therapeutic efficacy of CT-P59 as determined by time to clinical recovery up to Day 14.

    Clinical recovery was defined as all symptoms on the SARS-CoV-2 Infection Symptom Checklist 1 being recorded as 'absent' or 'mild' in intensity for at least 48 hours. SARS-CoV-2 Infection Symptom Checklist 1 consisted of 7 symptoms (feeling feverish, cough, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, sore throat, body pain or muscle pain, fatigue, and headache) and the intensity of patient's self-aware for each SARS-CoV-2 infection symptom (absent [0], mild [1]. moderate [2], and severe [3]).

    To meet the clinical recovery, symptoms 'severe' or 'moderate' in intensity at baseline should be changed to 'mild' or 'absent', or symptoms 'mild' in intensity at baseline should be changed to 'absent', after the study drug administration. Symptoms "absent" in intensity at baseline should maintain as "absent" for at least 48 hours.

    Measured: Up to Day 14

  5. Proportion of Patients With Clinical Symptom Requiring Hospitalization, Oxygen Therapy, or Experiencing Mortality Due to SARS-CoV-2 Infection up to Day 28 in High-risk Patients (Part 2)

    To demonstrate the clinically meaningful therapeutic efficacy of CT-P59 as determined by proportion of patients with clinical symptom requiring hospitalization, oxygen therapy, or experiencing mortality due to SARS-CoV-2 infection up to Day 28 in high-risk patients

    Measured: Up to Day 28

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing CT-P59 in people with SARS-CoV-2 Infection, run by Celltrion at 1 site in South Korea.

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 8 inclusion and 13 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Jul 2022. 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 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. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 20 Jul 2022). 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?

Proportion of Patients With Clinical Symptom Requiring Hospitalization, Oxygen Therapy, or Experiencing Mortality Due to SARS-CoV-2 Infection (Part 1) (time frame: Up to Day 28). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04602000, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 Jul 2022.
