About this study

Official title: Study of the Safety, Tolerability, Immunogenicity, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of the Drug B11-FC With a Single Application in Adults

Study of the safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of the drug B11-FC with a single application in adults

Read the detailed description

A three-staged, open-label, prospective study of B11-FC to examine safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, and pharmacokinetics in three dose-escalation groups; pharmacodynamics with a single dose in adult volunteers in a model of the effect of botulinum antitoxin on paralysis caused by botulinum neurotoxin A in EDB muscles in the framework of a double-blind, placebo-controlled comparative study and studying the effect of the study drug on the course of disease caused by botulinum toxin type A in adult patients diagnosed botulism.

The study plans to examine the safety of the drug after a single dose. The therapeutic dose is calculated based on the activity of monoclonal antibodies included in the drug. To ensure the safety of volunteers, drug administration will be started with 1/10 of the therapeutic dose.

The study for each participant of stages 1 and 2 consists of 3 periods:

  • screening (no more than 7 days before drug administration);
  • period of administration of the study drug and observation in a hospital setting (hospitalization for 7 days);
  • follow-up period (from 8 to 90 days from the date of administration). A total of 9 visits will take place, including a screening visit, of which 1 visit will be carried out as part of inpatient observation, and 7 visits will be outpatient. During the visits, volunteers will be examined in accordance with the study plan.

The study design will be the same for all volunteers, with the exception of the dosing regimen.

The study for each participant of stage 3 consists of 3 periods:

  • screening (on the day of hospitalization);
  • period of administration of the study drug and observation in a hospital setting (hospitalization for at least 7 days);
  • follow-up period (from the moment of discharge from the hospital to 90 days from the moment of administration).

During the visits, patients will be assessed and treated according to the study design and botulism treatment standards.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing B11-FC and Botulinum neurotoxin type A in people with Botulism, run by Gamaleya Research Institute of Epidemiology and Microbiology, Health Ministry of the Russian Federation.

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 16 inclusion and 43 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 30 Aug 2024. 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 combined 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.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

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?

heart rate (time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year). The study lists 8 primary outcomes in all. 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 30 Aug 2024.
