About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Multicenter, Parallel, Dose-Ranging Study to Evaluate The Efficacy, Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacodynamics of NBI-6024 In Adult and Adolescent Patients With New Onset Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

This was a study designed to evaluate the efficacy of multiple doses of an investigational drug, NBI-6024, in adult (18 to 35 years of age) and adolescent (10 to 17 years of age) patients with new onset type 1 diabetes mellitus, on endogenous insulin production.

A total of 188 patients were enrolled in the study. The study was divided into three periods: screening, treatment (comprising an induction phase and maintenance phase), and follow-up.

NBI-6024 was generally well tolerated and exhibits a benign safety profile, as there were no significant safety issues with NBI-6024 treatment. In summary, NBI-6024 did not demonstrate statistically significant efficacy compared with placebo.

Read the detailed description

This was a Phase II, multicenter (international), randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel, dose-ranging study to evaluate the efficacy of multiple doses of an altered peptide ligand, NBI-6024, in adult (18 to 35 years of age) and adolescent (10 to 17 years of age) patients with new onset type 1 diabetes mellitus.

Study drug was administered subcutaneously a total of 26 times over a 24-month period. The first three doses were administered every 2 weeks (induction phase); all subsequent dosing occurred monthly (maintenance phase). Patients returned to the study center to receive study drug and have efficacy and safety assessments collected. The primary efficacy endpoint was the 2-hour peak C-peptide at Month 24. Other secondary analyses included AUC C-peptide, prescribed insulin usage, AUC blood glucose, HbA1c, hypoglycemic events, and hyperglycemic events.

What is being measured

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

  1. To assess the effect of repeated administrations of NBI-6024 on endogenous insulin production as measured by C-peptide levels in adult and adolescent patients with new onset type 1 diabetes mellitus

    Measured: monthly assessments, up to 24 months (end of study)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To examine the effects of repeated administrations of NBI-6024 on insulin usage, glycemic control, and immune function (immunodynamics and pharmacodynamics) To examine the safety and tolerability of repeated administrations of NBI-6024

    Measured: monthly assessments, up to 24 months (end of study)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing NBI-6024 in people with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Neurocrine Biosciences at 21 sites in 8 countries.

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 11 inclusion and 14 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 1 Apr 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 21 sites in South Africa, Spain, Canada, Czechia, France and 3 more countries. 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 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.

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 assess the effect of repeated administrations of NBI-6024 on endogenous insulin production as measured by C-peptide levels in adult and adolescent patients with new onset type 1 diabetes mellitus (time frame: monthly assessments, up to 24 months (end of study)). 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 NCT00873561, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 1 Apr 2009.
