About this study

Official title: A Phase I/II Study of the Safety and Pharmacokinetics of Opebacan (rBPI21) in Patients Undergoing Myeloablative Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT)

The objectives of this study are as follows:

To demonstrate the safety of escalating doses of opebacan in subjects undergoing myeloablative allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

To determine the pharmacokinetics of opebacan in subjects undergoing myeloablative allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

To determine if IV administration of opebacan is associated with changes in biological markers for inflammation

To develop preliminary descriptive data on the occurrence and severity of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation related complications, including aGvHD

Read the detailed description

IV infusion of opebacan to replace endogenous BPI during the peritransplant period will result in the reduction of LPS-induced inflammatory sequelae, in particular aGvHD, in patients undergoing allogeneic HSCT.

The rationale for using opebacan in patients undergoing myeloablative regimens and HSCT is based on the following:

Endotoxemia has been demonstrated to play a central pathophysiologic role as a trigger of aGvHD in animal models.

Endotoxemia following HSCT is associated with inflammatory conditions (such as inflammatory cytokine release) that have been demonstrated in humans to be associated with organ damage and increased morbidity and mortality.

Endotoxemia and LBP elevation have been demonstrated in humans undergoing ablative HSCT.

Chemotherapy-induced neutropenia results in a deficiency of endogenous BPI levels.

The timing of the endotoxemic insult is predictable (i.e., subsequent to myeloablative chemotherapy and radiotherapy).

The return to normal neutrophil levels is not immediate and takes one week to several weeks.

Well established laboratory techniques for surrogate markers related to LPS presence and its activities can facilitate the evaluation of molecules designed to inhibit or antagonize LPS and its effects.

The objectives of this study are as follows:

To demonstrate the safety of escalating doses of opebacan in subjects undergoing myeloablative allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

To determine the pharmacokinetics of opebacan in subjects undergoing myeloablative allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

To determine if IV administration of opebacan is associated with changes in biological markers for inflammation

To develop preliminary descriptive data on the occurrence and severity of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation related complications, including aGvHD

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Opebacan in people with Graft Versus Host Disease, run by XOMA (US) LLC at 1 site 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 7 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 30 Jul 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Lack of enrollment). 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?

Time to engraftment (time frame: 100 days). The study lists 5 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 Jul 2012.
