About this study

Official title: A Trial to Investigate the Clinical Safety, Local Toleration, and Systemic Pharmacokinetics of Repeated, Escalating Concentrations of Intradermal RN1004 to Wounds of Healthy Subjects.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the safety and toleration of various doses of intradermal Juvidex (mannose-6-phosphate) administered to punch biopsies of normal subjects.

Read the detailed description

Each subject received a total of four wounds, two 3mm punch biopsies (at least 5cm apart) to the upper, inner aspect of each arm.

Subjects served as their own control, i.e. one punch biopsy on Arm 1 received Juvidex and the other punch biopsy received Placebo or Standard Care. Arm 2 punch biopsies received the same treatments as for Arm 1 but in reverse, i.e. treatments were matched across the arms.

On Day 0 the two areas for punch biopsies on Arm 1 were marked and anaesthetised and randomised to receive Juvidex or Placebo. Prior to wounding sites were injected intradermally with 100μl investigational product per site. Juvidex was dosed at 50, 100, 200, 300, 400, and 600mM.

On Day 1 (24 h later) wounds were dosed as on Day 0 but with 200μl investigational product per site. On Day 3 the biopsy sites on Arm 1 were excised to determine re-epithelialisation.

Arm 2 treatments and punch biopsies were carried out on Day 3, with further dosing 24 h later on Day 4 (as with Arm 1 wounding and treatments). These biopsy sites were excised on Day 8 of the study to obtain a 5 day-old wound.

The randomisation of the treatment allowed for control of possible positional effects on healing. One subject in each group was randomised to receive only Placebo and Standard Care to their biopsy wounds.

What is being measured

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

  1. To assess the safety and local toleration of various dose levels of Juvidex (RN1004) injected intradermally in healthy volunteers.

    Measured: 22 Days

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. To determine the systemic PK of various dose levels of Juvidex injected intradermally.

    Measured: 22 days

  2. To determine the histological effects on wound healing (re-epithelialisation, inflammatory cell infiltrate, angiogenesis and matrix deposition) of intradermal injections of Juvidex in healthy subjects.

    Measured: Day 3 and 5

  3. To find the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of Juvidex

    Measured: 22 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Juvidex in people with Cicatrix and Re-epithelialisation, run by Renovo at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 2 inclusion and 19 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 25 Sep 2009. 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 Kingdom. 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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To assess the safety and local toleration of various dose levels of Juvidex (RN1004) injected intradermally in healthy volunteers. (time frame: 22 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 25 Sep 2009.
