About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Open-label, Dose Escalation Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Preliminary Biologic Activity/Efficacy of the VEGFR/PDGFR Inhibitor X-82 Administered Per Os in Subjects With Neovascular Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD)

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and preliminary biologic activity/efficacy of X-82 in patients with wet Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD). Preliminary efficacy will be assessed by change from baseline in visual acuity, fluorescein leakage, retinal thickness and fibrosis, if detectable, based on fundus examination, fundus photography, fluorescein angiography and optical coherence tomography (OCT).

Being tested
X-82 oral, ranibizumab (Lucentis)
Keywords

What is being measured

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

  1. Change From Baseline Visual Acuity at 6 Months

    The best corrected visual acuity by the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) method was determined at baseline and at various times during the study. The ETDRS method records the number of letters of decreasing size on a chart that a subject can read from a defiend distance.

    During the study the ETDRS visual acuity was used to monitor the need for rescue therapy. The primary endpoint of the study was the change from baseline visual ETDRS visual acuity at 6 months. It was calculated by subtracting the baseline visual acuity from the visual acuity at 6 months for each individual subject. A positive change from baseline indicates improvement in visual acuity.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing X-82 oral and ranibizumab (Lucentis) in people with Exudative Macular Degeneration, run by Tyrogenex at 5 sites in United States.

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 10 inclusion and 23 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 7 Aug 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in United States. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 27 Jun 2018). 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?

Change From Baseline Visual Acuity at 6 Months (time frame: 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01674569, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Aug 2018.
