About this study

The objective of this study is to assess the safety of GLP-1 CellBeads® in patients with space-occupying intracerebral hemorrhage.

Being tested

What participants receive

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

  • GLP-1 CellBeadsDrug

    GLP-1 CellBeads are alginate microcapsules containing allogenic mesenchymal cells, transfected to secrete Glucagon like peptide-1. By implantation into brain tissue cavity after surgical evacuation of the hematoma, a volume of 500μl GLP-1 CellBeads which equals approximately 2330 GLP-1 CellBeads resulting in a total number of approximately 7.8 million cells is administered to the patient. The cells are removed by second surgery after a 14 days treatment period.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing GLP-1 CellBeads in people with Intracerebral Hemorrhage (ICH), run by CellMed AG, a subsidiary of BTG plc. at 6 sites in Germany.

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 7 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Mar 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in Germany. 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 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 was stopped early (reason given: Need for improvement of study medication. Safety data collected sufficient. No further gain in knowledge expected.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

The objective of this study is to assess the safety of GLP-1 CellBeads® in patients with space-occupying intracerebral hemorrhage (time frame: 6 months). 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 26 Mar 2013.
