About this study

Official title: A Phase 2 Study of the Safety and Effectiveness of SANGUINATE™ in the Treatment of Vaso-Occlusive Crises in the Ambulatory Setting: A Placebo-Controlled, Single-Dose, Single-Blind Study in Adults With Sickle Cell Disease

Safety and effect of SANGUINATE on Sickle Cell Disease patients experiencing a vaso-occlusive crisis

Read the detailed description

Patients who are experiencing a vaso-occlusive crisis will report to the clinic for treatment and screening into the SGSC-005 study. Patients who meet all inclusion/exclusion criteria will be randomized to receive either SANGUINATE 320 mg/kg or placebo (saline) over a 2 hour infusion period. Assessments of vital signs, ECGs, safety labs, adverse events as well as patient and physician questionnaires will be completed up to 6 hours after the start of the infusion. Patients will then be assessed for discharge either to home or admitted to the hospital for further treatment depending on their disease severity. Follow-up phone calls will be completed 24 hours and 7 days after initiation of treatment . A follow-up visit will be completed in the clinic at 72 hours after initiation of treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Time to readiness for discharge from ambulatory site

    Defined as the time from the start of study drug infusion until the time of participant's response that their pain episode has improved enough for discharge; investigator's assessment of participant's readiness for discharge; and participant no longer requires IV opioid administration

    Measured: 7 Days

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Safety of treatment

    as determined by changes in vital signs, EKG, biochemical, hematological, and urinalysis measures, and reported AEs

    Measured: 1 Day

  2. Extent of reduction in pain score during ambulatory visit as assessed by the participant on a 10-point pain scale

    Measured: 1 Day

  3. Total pain treatment received including the opioid dose (mg/kg) received during ambulatory visit

    Measured: 1 Day

  4. Global assessment of the participant's improvement by the Investigator or study staff (at the time of readiness for discharge from the ambulatory visit, and at the 72-hour follow-up visit)

    Measured: 7 Days

  5. Reduction in the rate of recurrent ambulatory visit(s) for the VOC within 7 days post discharge

    Measured: 7 Days

  6. Reduction in the rate of hospitalization(s) for VOC after treatment with SANGUINATE and within 7 days post-discharge

    Measured: 7 Days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing SANGUINATE in people with Anemia, Sickle Cell, run by Prolong Pharmaceuticals at 9 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 6 inclusion and 9 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 23 May 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 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. 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 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?

Time to readiness for discharge from ambulatory site (time frame: 7 Days). 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 23 May 2018.
