About this study

Official title: A Phase IV, Randomized, Double-Blind Study to Assess the Immune Reactivity of the Liquid and Lyophilized Formulations of Palivizumab (MEDI-493, Synagis) in Children at High Risk for the Development of Serious RSV Disease

The purpose of this study is to measure the rate of anti-palivizumab antibodies (also referred to as immune reactivity or immunogenicity) in subjects receiving either the liquid or lyophilized formulation of palivizumab. This study will compare the number and percentage of subjects with anti-palivizumab antibodies receiving either the liquid or lyophilized formulation of palivizumab.

Read the detailed description

The approved liquid formulation of palivizumab was developed to simplify preparation of the drug before injection. Both formulations of palivizumab have been shown to be bioequivalent in children 6 months of age or younger with a history of chronic lung disease. In previous studies of liquid palivizumab, immunogenicity was evaluated up to 2 months after dosing in adults, and 1 month after dosing in children. In this study, MI-CP116, immunogenicity will be evaluated between 4 and 6 months after the last dose of study drug, in order to provide data at a time point significantly distant from dosing when drug interference is minimal.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Lyophilized Palivizumab and Liquid Palivizumab in people with Chronic Lung Disease, run by MedImmune LLC at 54 sites in United States.

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 27 Jun 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 54 sites in United States. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 28 Oct 2008). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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 and Percentage of Participants With Immune Reactivity (time frame: Day 240-300 follow up). 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 NCT00233064, 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 27 Jun 2018.
