About this study

Official title: Phase I/II Randomized, Double Blind, Placebo Controlled, Dose Escalation, Safety and Pharmacokinetics Study in VLBW Neonates, a Human Chimeric Anti-Staphylococcal Monoclonal Antibody for the Prevention of S. Epidermidis Infection

"Phase I/II, Randomized, Double Blind, Placebo Controlled, Dose Escalating, Safety and Pharmacokinetics Study in Very Low Birth Weight Neonates of Four Doses of BSYX-A110 for the Prevention of S. epidermidis Infection." The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of escalating doses of BSYX-A110 administered on Study Days 0 and 14.

Read the detailed description

"Phase I/II, Randomized, Double Blind, Placebo Controlled, Dose Escalating, Safety and Pharmacokinetics Study in Very Low Birth Weight Neonates of Four Doses of BSYX-A110, a Human Chimeric Anti-Staphylococcal Monoclonal Antibody for the Prevention of S. epidermidis Infection" will be the first study of BSYX-A110 in the target population of hospitalized, very low birth weight infants. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of escalating doses of BSYX-A110 administered on Study Days 0 and 14.

This will be a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, dose escalating study of BSYX-A110 in 48 very low birth weight neonates. The dose levels to be evaluated are 10, 30, 60 and 90 mg/kg. Each dose level will enroll 12 infants who will receive two doses of BSYX-A110 or placebo intravenously at a ratio of 2:1 while hospitalized following birth. Infants will be followed for 8 weeks following the first dose of BSYX-A110 or placebo. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate safety and tolerability. The secondary objective is to analyze the pharmacokinetics of BSYX-A110. Positive cultures obtained during the study period will be recorded and analyzed.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Pagibaximab (formerly BSYX-A110) in people with Neonatal Staphylococcal Sepsis, run by Biosynexus Incorporated 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 9 inclusion and 20 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 10 Mar 2008. 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. 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?

Safety and tolerability. (time frame: 0 - 52 days). 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 10 Mar 2008.
