About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Investigator and Participant Blinded, Placebo Controlled, Multiple Ascending Dose, Two Part Design Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Effects of MHS552 in Adults With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM)

The purpose of this two-part multiple ascending dose study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple doses of MHS552 in adults with type 1 diabetes mellitus. Participants will be treated for 4 or 12 weeks followed by an 8 week follow-up period

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase 1b, randomized, investigator and participant blinded, placebo controlled, multiple ascending dose (MAD) study in adults with type 1 diabetes mellitus (adults aged 18-45 years, inclusive, diagnosed with T1DM within 5 years at the time of screening). This MAD study will be conducted in two sequential parts, Part A and Part B.

In Part A, after an screening period of up to 28 days, participants will be randomized (in a 3:1 ratio) to MHS552 or placebo administered subcutaneously (s.c.) weekly for four weeks of treatment. Part A will consist of up to 3 cohorts (low, medium, high dose), with approximately 4-8 participants completing each cohort (total of approximately 16 participants). Participants will be followed-up during 8 weeks post last dose. The total duration of study participation of Part A is approximately 106 Days.

In Part B, after a screening period of up to 28 days, approximately 12 participants will be randomized (in a 2:1 ratio) to MHS552 or placebo administered s.c. weekly for 12 weeks of treatment (dose level 4). Participants will be followed-up during 8 weeks post last dose with End of Study (EoS) visit at Day 134. The total duration of study participation of Part B is approximately 162 Days.

What participants receive

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

  • MHS552Drug

    MHS552 will be administered once weekly as subcutaneous injection for 4 (Part A) or 12 weeks (Part B)

  • PlaceboDrug

    Placebo will be administered once weekly as subcutaneous injection for 4 (Part A) or 12 weeks (Part B)

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of participants with Adverse events (AEs) and Serious Adverse events (SAEs)

    Numbers of participants with AEs and SAEs including vital signs, electrocardiograms (ECG) and laboratory results

    Measured: Part A: up to 12 weeks; Part B: up to 20 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Area Under Plasma Concentration-time Curve calculated to the end of a dosing interval (AUCtau) for MHS552

    Characterize the AUCtau profile following multiple doses of MHS552

    Measured: Part A: up to Day 78; Part B: up to Day 134

  2. Maximum ObservBlood Concentrations (Cmax) for MHS552

    Characterize the Cmax profile following multiple doses of MHS552

    Measured: Part A: up to Day 78; Part B: up to Day 134

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing MHS552 in people with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals.

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 8 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Apr 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Number of participants with Adverse events (AEs) and Serious Adverse events (SAEs) (time frame: Part A: up to 12 weeks; Part B: up to 20 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 7 Apr 2023.
