About this study

Official title: A Phase IIa Study of Safety and Efficacy of NOX-100 for Preventing Hypotension in Patients During Hemodialysis Sessions

This study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy profile of NOX-100 to reduce intradialytic hypotension (IDH) in patients undergoing chronic hemodialysis (HD).

Read the detailed description

This is a 2-stage, prospective, randomized, double-blind, multi-dose, placebo-controlled, cross-over, phase IIa study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy profiles of NOX-100 to reduce the number of intradialytic hypotension episodes. At single-blind stage I, the eligible subject will receive a 1-week run-in period followed by a 1-week NOX-100 treatment in a dose of 0.4mg/kg/hr. To evaluate the clearance of NOX-100, plasma levels of NOX-100 at the end of the 1st dialysis and prior to the 2nd dialysis will be measured. An interim analysis will be undertaken after the completion of first stage. The following process should be conducted only if the plasma level of NOX-100 decreases by 90% or more in these patients and all safety data have been reviewed by the medical monitor.

At double blind stage II, patients will be randomized to one of the following treatment sequences in a 1:1 ratio.

  • Sequence A: NOX-100 treatment phase followed by Placebo treatment phase
  • Sequence B: Placebo treatment phase followed by NOX-100 treatment phase

After a 1-week placebo, the subjects will receive the two 4-week treatment (sequence A or sequence B)which are separated by 1-week wash-out. In the NOX-100 treatment phase, subjects will subsequently receive NOX-100 in doses of 1.2, 2.5, 5, and 10 mg/kg/hr at the first three dialysis sessions over each week. In the placebo treatment phase, subjects will receive comparative placebo for four weeks. For the first 20 subjects, the treatment dose could be escalated only after the individual safety data have been reviewed by an unblinded medical monitor.

To confirm if there is hepatic metabolism of NOX-100 between dialysis sessions, a pre-dialysis plasma level will be tested at the 2nd dialysis of Week 2, 5, 7 and 10 in the second stage.

In both stages, the blood pressure will be measured pre-HD, every 30 minutes during HD and post-HD for monitoring the hypotension episode. For safety assessment, all AE(s), SAE(s) and any signs/symptoms during HD will be recorded. The safety of study drug will be followed until 4 weeks after last treatment.

A Data and Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) will be established prior to start of the trial and the DSMB meeting will be hold every 6~12 months during study period. Both medical monitor and DSMB will be responsible for safeguarding the interests of trial participants.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of hypotension episode requiring intervention

    Number reduction of symptomatic hypotension requiring intervention during HD with NOX-100 treatment.

    Measured: 10 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. systolic blood pressure (SBP)

    Change in systolic blood pressure

    Measured: 10 weeks

  2. Onset of symptoms of hypotension during HD

    Time to onset of symptoms of hypotension during HD

    Measured: 10 weeks

  3. The need for treatment intervention to raise BP.

    Time to conduct a treatment intervention to raise BP

    Measured: 10 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing NOX-100 in people with Hypotension, run by Medinox, Inc. at 6 sites in Taiwan.

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 5 inclusion and 10 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 31 Dec 2015. 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 Taiwan. 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?

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?

Number of hypotension episode requiring intervention (time frame: 10 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 31 Dec 2015.
