Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and pharmacodynamics of SEL-068. Increasing subcutaneous doses of SEL-068 will be administered to healthy non-smoker and smoker volunteers. The resulting safety profile and anti-nicotine antibody levels will be evaluated. Read more about this study

What is being measured

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

  1. To assess the safety and tolerability of multiple subcutaneous injections of SEL-068 as assessed by frequency of vaccine related adverse events, graded by severity

    Measured: 36 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Immunogenicity of SEL-068 by measuring anti-nicotine antibody titers by Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA).

    Measured: 36 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing SEL-068 and Saline in people with Smoking Cessation, run by Selecta Biosciences, Inc. at 1 site in Belgium.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 7 Jan 2016. 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 Belgium. 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 tolerability of multiple subcutaneous injections of SEL-068 as assessed by frequency of vaccine related adverse events, graded by severity (time frame: 36 weeks). 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 7 Jan 2016.
