About this study

Official title: Phase I/II, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Dose-Escalation, Single-Center Study of the Progenitor Cell Mobilizing Effects of Imprime PGG™ Injection Administered at Varied Dosing Regimens With G-CSF Versus G-CSF Alone in Healthy Subjects

This study is a randomized, placebo-controlled, dose-escalation, single-center study evaluating two different doses of Imprime PGG, each in 7 different dosing regimes. A total of 66 subjects will be enrolled into 2 cohorts and, within each cohort, randomized to 1 of 7 treatment groups receiving Imprime PGG or placebo in varied dosing regimens with granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF).

What is being measured

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

  1. -To determine the safety of Imprime PGG when dosed as part of a standard 4-day regimen of G-CSF assessed via occurrence of adverse events and change from baseline in clinical laboratories, physical examination, vital signs and ECG

    Measured: Prospective

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. -To evaluate the progenitor cell mobilizing efficacy of Imprime PGG when dosed as part of a standard 4-day progenitor cell mobilizing regimen of G-CSF assessed through peripheral blood CD34+ cell counts

    Measured: Prospective

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Imprime PGG TM for Injection in people with Healthy, run by HiberCell, Inc..

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 9 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Oct 2007. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 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 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?

-To determine the safety of Imprime PGG when dosed as part of a standard 4-day regimen of G-CSF assessed via occurrence of adverse events and change from baseline in clinical laboratories, physical examination, vital signs and ECG (time frame: Prospective). 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 11 Oct 2007.
