Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 64 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult

Who may be able to join

  • Have HIV-1 infection confirmed by enzyme immunoassay (EIA) and immunoblot.

  • Weigh 45-120 kg.
  • Have an absolute neutrophil count >1000 cells/uL, hemoglobin (Hgb) >10 g/dL, and platelets >100,000/uL.
  • Have serum creatinine ≤1.5 mg/dL and alanine transaminase (ALT) <2.5 times the upper limit of normal.
  • Have a 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) without clinically significant abnormalities in the opinion of the investigator.

  • Women of non-childbearing potential, defined as either surgically sterile or at least 1-year post-menopausal (no menstrual periods for at least 2 years), or
  • Women of childbearing potential using a highly effective method of contraception, and
  • Women of childbearing potential with a negative serum beta human chorionic gonadotropin (β-HCG) test result at screening and within the 24 hours prior to administration of study drug. A negative urine pregnancy test within the 24 hours prior to administration of study drug will be acceptable, if the serum pregnancy test result is not yet available.
  • For heterosexual male subjects, the subject and the subject's sexual partner must agree to use acceptable methods of contraception during the entire study. Acceptable methods include, but are not limited to, intrauterine device, diaphragm with spermicide, condoms, or abstinence. Oral contraceptives alone are not an acceptable method of birth control.
  • Be willing and able to provide written informed consent.

Who cannot join

  • Have a history of an acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS)-defining illness or symptomatic HIV disease (i.e., Centers for Disease Control [CDC] Class B or C).
  • Have received monoclonal antibody therapy of any kind in the past.
  • Received vaccinations in the past 15 days prior to study entry.
  • Received antihistamines in the 6 weeks prior to study entry.
  • Received non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in the 5-6 days prior to skin test.
  • Any history of anaphylaxis, asthma, hypersensitivity reaction to a vaccine or drug infusion, angioedema, or urticaria.
Show all 18Show fewer
  • Have been treated with any of the following within the 3 months prior to screening: interferons, cytokines, or other immunomodulators; immunoglobulin therapy; systemic corticosteroids; cytotoxic drugs; or ionizing radiation.
  • Have received any investigational agent within 60 days prior to screening.
  • Have any condition which, in the judgment of the investigator, may make the subject's participation in this study too risky; interfere with the collection of or interpretation of PK data; or interfere with the ability of the subject to adhere to and complete the study. Such conditions may include, but are not limited to, cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal/hepatic, neurologic, and genitourinary disorders.
  • Current alcohol or drug use that, in the judgment of the investigator, will interfere with the subject's ability to comply with the protocol requirements.
  • Have an unexplained positive urine drug screen test for an illicit drug.
  • Have a confirmed positive hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) or antibody to hepatitis C virus (HCV).
  • Have used any prescription within 14 days of study initiation or any over-the-counter (OTC) medication within 3 days of study initiation which, in the judgment of the investigator, would place the individual at risk or interfere with safety, tolerability, or PK data.
  • Have dosages/amounts of drugs that have changed, or are scheduled to use new drugs which, in the judgment of the investigator, would place the individual at risk or interfere with safety, tolerability, or PK data.
  • Have a recent history of major surgery, internal organ biopsy, or major trauma.
  • Females who are pregnant or breast-feeding, or who plan to become pregnant during the study.
  • Have a mental condition rendering the subject unable to understand the nature, scope, and possible consequences of the study.
  • Show a positive reaction to the prick test for KD-247, i.e., ≥3 mm in diameter greater than the negative control.

About this study

Official title: A Study of the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of KD-247, a Humanized Monoclonal Antibody That Recognizes the Principal Neutralizing Determinant of HIV-1, in Asymptomatic HIV-1 Seropositive Individuals Who Are Not Receiving Concurrent Antiretroviral Therapy

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of 3 infusions of KD-247 over 2 weeks in HIV-1 seropositive individuals; to determine the pharmacokinetic parameters of KD-247 when administered as above; and to assess the effect of KD-247 infusions on plasma HIV-1 ribonucleic acid (RNA) load and on CD4+ T cell counts.

Read the detailed description

A minimum of 6 active subjects and 3 placebo subjects for each dose cohort will complete 2 weeks of infusions. A maximum of 27 total subjects will be dosed with KD-247 and up to 9 total will receive placebo. Per cohort subjects randomized to active treatment will receive iv infusions of KD 247 over 2 hours at each dosing visit. Subjects randomized to placebo will receive 2-hour iv infusions of saline solution at each dosing visit. Following the first infusion of KD-247 (or placebo) for each subject in the study, there will be a 24-hour in-patient observation period before the next subject can be randomized within the study. Dose escalation will proceed only after safety data through Day 18 for all subjects in the lower-dose cohort is reviewed.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing KD-247 and Physiological saline in people with HIV Infections, run by The Chemo-Sero-Therapeutic Research Institute at 15 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 16 inclusion and 18 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 19 Nov 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 15 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 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.

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 19 Nov 2012.
