About this study

Official title: IGIV-C 10% Rapid Infusion Trial in Primary Immune Deficient Patients

The objective of this study is to determine if the safety and tolerability of Immune Globulin Intravenous (Human), 10% caprylate/chromatography (IGIV-C)purified is similar when infused at two different infusion rates. The primary objective is to compare the incidence and severity of all infusion related adverse events when IGIV-C, 10% is administered at a rate of 0.14 mL/kg/min compared to a rate of 0.08 mL/kg/min after a single daily infusion.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective, single blind, randomized, multi-center cross-over trial in patients with Primary Immune Deficiency. Patients with a confirmed diagnosis of primary Immune Deficiency will be treated with two daily infusions given 3-4 weeks apart at the fixed individual IGIV dose regimen (400-600 mg/kg) established prior to entry into the study. Any subject with an established dose in the range of 200-399 mg/kg will be assigned to receive 400 mg/kg during the course of the study during the same dosing schedule established prior to entry into the study.

After a screening period lasting not more than four weeks, patients will be randomized into one of two cross-over groups. Patients randomized to Group 1 will receive their first IGIV-C, 10% dose at a rate of 0.08 mL/kg/min and their second infusion at a rate of 0.14 mL/kg/min, whereas patients randomized to Group 2 will receive IGIV-C, 10% at a rate of 0.14 mL/kg/min on the first infusion day and then 0.08 mL/kg/min on the second infusion day. All patients just prior to each IGIV-C, 10% infusion will receive the same volume of 5% dextrose as calculated for their IGIV-C, 10% infusion and given at a target rate according to the schema below.

Group 1:

  • Infusion #1 (Week 0)Dextrose (0.14 mL/kg/min), then IGIV-C, 10% (0.08 mL/kg/min)
  • Infusion #2 (Week 3-4)Dextrose (0.08 mL/kg/min), then IGIV-C, 10% (0.14 mL/kg/min)

Group 2:

  • Infusion #1 (Week 0)Dextrose (0.08 mL/kg/min), then IGIV-C, 10% (0.14 mL/kg/min)
  • Infusion #2 Dextrose (0.14 mL/kg/min), then IGIV-C, 10% (0.08 mL/kg/min)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Immune Globulin Intravenous [Human], 10% Caprylate/Chromatography Purified and Dextrose, 5% in Water in people with Immunologic Deficiency Syndrome and Agammaglobulinemia, run by Grifols Therapeutics LLC at 13 sites in 2 countries.

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 11 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 25 Sep 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 13 sites in United States, Canada. 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 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?

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?

Infusion related adverse events (time frame: within 72 hours after infusion). 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 25 Sep 2009.
