About this study

Official title: Quantitative Fluorescence Molecular Imaging of Ustekinumab-800CW to Elucidate the Drug Distribution Throughout Inflamed Tissue in Crohn's Disease and Psoriasis: a Prospective Pilot Intervention Study

Crohn's Disease (CD) and psoriasis are chronic inflammatory diseases. Ustekinumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody. Ustekinumab is expensive and primary non-response is high in both CD and psoriasis. Currently, there are no predictors of response to ustekinumab and the actual mechanism of action has not yet been elucidated. To clarify the mechanism of action and gain a better understanding of the high primary non-response rates, the University Medical Center Groningen (UMCG) developed a tracer fluorescently labeling ustekinumab. This study aims to gain insight into ustekinumab distribution and concentrations in the gut. The current study aims to identify the ustekinumab target cells in the inflamed gut mucosa and skin using quantitative fluorescence molecular endoscopy (qFME). By gaining insight into local ustekinumab concentrations, drug distribution, and by discovering target cells, we expect to gain insight into the mechanism of action of ustekinumab.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Ustekinumab in people with Psoriasis and Crohn Disease, run by University Medical Center Groningen at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 7 inclusion and 4 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Jan 2025. 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 Netherlands. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact W.B. Nagengast, MD, PhD, PharmD (+31503612620, w.b.nagengast@umcg.nl), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Quantification of fluorescent signal of fluorescent ustekinumab in CD and psoriasis patients. (time frame: 3-4 days after tracer admission). 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 NCT05725876, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 15 Jan 2025.
