About this study

Official title: Phase II, Open, Randomised, Parallel Group, Noncomparative Multicentre Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Repeated Subcutaneous (S.C.) Administration of Different Doses of BIM 23A760 in Acromegalic Patients

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of repeated subcutaneous (under the skin) injections at different doses of BIM 23A760 on growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor-1 levels in patients with acromegaly after 6 months of treatment.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Subjects With Mean GH ≤2.5 ng/mL and Normalised IGF-1

    Measured: At Month 6

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Percentage of Subjects With Mean GH ≤2.5 ng/mL and Normalised IGF-1

    Measured: At Month 3

  2. Percentage of Subjects With Mean GH ≤2.5 ng/mL and Normalised IGF-1

    Measured: At Month 1

  3. Percent Change From Baseline in the Mean GH From 0-3 Hours at Months 1, 3 and 6

    Percentage change from Baseline at month X = (Mean GH at month X - Mean GH at baseline) x 100 / Mean GH at baseline

    Measured: 0-3 hr on Baseline (Day 1) and Months 1, 3 and 6

  4. Changes in IGF-1

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1) and Month 6

  5. Percentage Change in Ring Finger Circumference

    Percentage change from Baseline at month X = (Ring finger circumference at month X - ring finger circumference at baseline) x 100 / ring finger circumference at baseline.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1) and Month 6

  6. Number of Subjects Reported Adverse Events During the Study

    For summaries of intensity and causality, individual patients may be reported in more than one category. In the event of multiple episodes of AEs being reported by the same patient during the study, the maximum intensity (severe > moderate > mild) and the most serious causality (related > not related) have been chosen.

    TEAE (Treatment emergent adverse event) are reported by Maximum Dose Received in Each Part of the Study.

    Measured: Up to Visit 10 (An average of 6.5 Months)

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  2. Study startOct 2009
  3. Primary completionFeb 2011
  4. Study completionFeb 2011

Why it stopped: Preliminary data from this study does not support expected inhibition of GH and IGF-1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing BIM 23A760 in people with Acromegaly, run by Ipsen at 23 sites in 13 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 3 inclusion and 4 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Nov 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 23 sites in United States, Ukraine, Belgium, Brazil, Czechia and 8 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 10 Feb 2016). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Percentage of Subjects With Mean GH ≤2.5 ng/mL and Normalised IGF-1 (time frame: At Month 6). 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 22 Nov 2019.
