About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Open-Label, Single and Multiple Ascending Dose Study of ABC008 in Adult Patients With Inclusion Body Myositis (IBM)

An open-label, ascending dose study for adult patients with Inclusion Body Myositis (IBM).

Read the detailed description

Participants who successfully complete the SAD EOT visit, and have no emerging safety issues, will be eligible to enroll in Part 2 (MAD). Eligible participants for the MAD part will have inclusion and exclusion criteria (same as those for Part 1) reviewed prior to dosing on MAD Day 1.

Participants who successfully complete the MAD EOT visit, and have no emerging safety issues, will be eligible to enrol in Part 3, MAD Extension.

After the final MAD visit (W48), participants will have the option to continue on to Part 3 MAD Extension.

For Part 3 (MAD Extension), participant dosing will be at 8-week intervals starting at Day 1. Duration of dosing in Part 3 will be up to approximately 80 weeks (18 months), or until a new long-term extension study has been initiated. The SMC will review all participant safety data approximately every 6 months while the Part 3 dosing continues.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ABC008 in people with Inclusion Body Myositis, run by Abcuro, Inc. at 4 sites in Australia.

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 3 inclusion and 1 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 Feb 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 Australia. 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?

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?

Assessment of Safety and Tolerability (time frame: Through Study Completion an average of 28 weeks for SAD (Single Ascending Dose) phase and 52 weeks for MAD (Multiple Ascending Dose) phase]). 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 Feb 2025.
