About this study

Official title: A Pilot Phase II Trial Of ABI-007 (A Cremophor El-Free, Protein Stabilized, Nanoparticle Paclitaxel) For The Prevention Of Vascular Access Graft Failure In Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis

This study is designed to confirm the safety of the proposed dose and schedule of ABI-007 for hemodialysis patients with vascular access device failure, and to obtain preliminary data on the effectiveness of such treatment.

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label, pilot, phase II study to assess the feasibility of administering ABI-007 intravenously [IV] over 3-5 minutes to patients with hemodialysis graft dysfunction (i.e., either a thrombosed polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) graft, or a patent but dysfunctional PTFE graft). Patients with graft dysfunction who are successfully treated with angioplasty will start treatment after angioplasty or during their first dialysis through the graft following intervention, and will receive 3 subsequent treatments of ABI-007 at 35 mg/m^2 on weeks 5, 13 and 21.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants With Discontinued, Delayed or Interrupted Therapy

    Percentage of participants who had discontinued therapy or had a delayed dose or an interrupted (omitted) dose due to toxicities/adverse events.

    Measured: up to week 21

  2. Percentage of Participants Without Graft Failure or Need for Intervention

    Graft failure is defined as graft thrombosis, loss of vascular access function, or >50% stenosis of the index lesion at the time of a regularly scheduled angiographic assessment.

    Measured: 24 weeks

  3. Stenosis (%) of the Index Lesion at Venous Anastomosis Using Angiography at Week 12

    Indexed lesion must be located in the arm and is a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) thrombosed graft or a patent but dysfunctional PTFE graft with a residual stenosis of less than 30% after the pre-dose angioplasty. The percent of stenosis (narrowing) of the index lesion is measured by angiography.

    Measured: 12 weeks

  4. Stenosis (%) of the Index Lesion at Venous Anastomosis Using Angiography at Week 24

    Indexed lesion must be located in the arm and is a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) thrombosed graft or a patent but dysfunctional PTFE graft with a residual stenosis of less than 30% after the pre-dose angioplasty. The percent of stenosis (narrowing) of the index lesion is measured by angiography.

    Measured: 24 weeks

  5. Stenosis (%) of the Index Lesion at Venous Anastomosis Using Angiography at Month 9

    Indexed lesion must be located in the arm and is a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) thrombosed graft or a patent but dysfunctional PTFE graft with a residual stenosis of less than 30% after the pre-dose angioplasty. The percent of stenosis (narrowing) of the index lesion is measured by angiography.

    Measured: 9 months

  6. Stenosis (%) of the Index Lesion at Venous Anastomosis Using Angiography at Month 12

    Indexed lesion must be located in the arm and is a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) thrombosed graft or a patent but dysfunctional PTFE graft with a residual stenosis of less than 30% after the pre-dose angioplasty.

  7. Stenosis (%) of a Non-index Lesion Using Angiography at Week 12

    Non-indexed lesion with a residual stenosis of less than 30% after the pre-dose angioplasty. The percent of stenosis (narrowing) of the non-index lesion is measured by angiography. Three non-index lesions are reported: central vein, intragraft and arterial anastomosis.

    Measured: 12 weeks

  8. Stenosis (%) of a Non-index Lesion Using Angiography at Week 24

    Non-indexed lesion with a residual stenosis of less than 30% after the pre-dose angioplasty. The percent of stenosis (narrowing) of the non-index lesion is measured by angiography. Three non-index lesions are reported: central vein, intragraft and arterial anastomosis.

    Measured: 24 weeks

  9. Stenosis (%) of a Non-index Lesion Using Angiography at Month 9

    Measured: 9 months

  10. Stenosis (%) of a Non-index Lesion Using Angiography at Month 12

    Non-indexed lesion with a residual stenosis of less than 30% after the pre-dose angioplasty. The percent of stenosis (narrowing) of the non-index lesion is measured by angiography. Three non-index lesions are reported: central vein, intragraft and arterial anastomosis.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Participants With Arthrosclerotic Cardiovascular Complications

    Counts of participants who had treatment-emergent arthrosclerotic cardiovascular complications, specifically myocardial infarction, arterial thromboses, or cerebrovascular events.

    Measured: up to week 25

  2. Kaplan Meier Estimates for Time to Graft Failure or Intervention

    The time to graft failure or intervention was defined as the time from first dose of study drug to the first time graft failure or intervention. Participants who did not have graft failure or intervention at the end of the study were censored at the last known time that the participant had angiography.

    Measured: up to 12 months

  3. Percentage of Participants With Patency of Index and Non-Index Lesions at 24 Weeks

    The patency (unblocking) for index lesions is defined as <50% of stenosis and no PFTE graft thrombosis at 24 weeks. The patency for non-index lesions is defined as <50% of stenosis and no new non-index lesions at 24 weeks.

    Measured: 24 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing ABI-007 in people with Hemodialysis Graft Dysfunction, run by Celgene at 4 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 4 inclusion and 22 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Nov 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 13 Mar 2012). 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?

Percentage of Participants With Discontinued, Delayed or Interrupted Therapy (time frame: up to week 21). The study lists 10 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 25 Nov 2019.
