About this study

Official title: Phase II Trial of hOKT3gamma1(Ala-Ala) Teplizumab for Treatment of Patients With Recent Onset Type 1 Diabetes

This is a randomized placebo controlled study to test whether a single 14 course of treatment with the anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody, hOKT3gamma1(Ala-Ala),Teplizumab will prevent the loss of insulin secretory capacity in individuals with Type 1 diabetes of 4 - 12 months duration since diagnosis.

Read the detailed description

The study design is a double blind placebo controlled trial that will enroll subjects between the ages of 8 - 30 who have had the diagnosis of Type 1 diabetes made 4 - 12 months prior to enrollment. A single 14 course of treatment with mAb hOKT3gamma1(Ala-Ala), Teplizumab will be given. The primary endpoint is the C-peptide response to a mixed meal at 12 months. A total of 60 subjects will be enrolled (30 in the drug treatment and 30 in the placebo groups) at 4 study sites: Yale University,the University of California at San Francisco, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, and the Barbara Davis Diabetes Center.

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • mAb hOKT3gamma1(Ala-Ala), TeplizumabDrug

    Also called mAb hOKT3gamma1(Ala-Ala), MGA031, Teplizumab

    This is a randomized, two-arm, double blind placebo controlled phase II trial in which 60 participants with recent-onset T1DM are randomized at a 1:1 ratio to receive Teplizumab or placebo over a 14 day treatment period. The course of Teplizumab comprises daily doses of 51 µg/m2, 103 µg/m2, 207 µg/m2, 413 µg/m2, and 10 of 826 µg/m2.

What is being measured

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

  1. C-peptide Area Under the Curve (AUC) Response to a Mixed Meal Tolerance Test (MMTT) at 12 Months

    C-peptide secretory response was calculated as ln[(Area Under the Curve of the C-peptide from the 240 minute MMTT/240 +1]

    For presentation, the C-peptide data were converted to the AUC as pmol/ml. This is adjusted for baseline.

    Measured: At month 12 post-treatment

  2. C-peptide Area Under the Curve (AUC) Response to a Mixed Meal Tolerance Test (MMTT) at Baseline

    C-peptide secretory response was calculated as ln[(Area Under the Curve of the C-peptide from the 240 minute MMTT/240 +1]

    For presentation, the C-peptide data were converted to the AUC as pmol/ml. This baseline data was used to adjust for the C-peptide AUC primary endpoint measure at 12 months.

    Measured: At Baseline (before treatment)

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Hemoglobin A1c

    Measured: At 12 months post-treatment

  2. Average Insulin Use Over 12 Months

    Measured: After 12 months post-treatment

  3. Baseline Insulin Use

    Measured: At baseline (before treatment)

  4. Baseline Hemoglobin A1c

    Measured: At baseline (before treatment)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing mAb hOKT3gamma1(Ala-Ala), Teplizumab in people with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Yale University 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 2 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 13 Aug 2021. 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. 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 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 31 Oct 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?

C-peptide Area Under the Curve (AUC) Response to a Mixed Meal Tolerance Test (MMTT) at 12 Months (time frame: At month 12 post-treatment). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT00378508, which also lists 5 linked publications.

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 13 Aug 2021.
