What is being measured

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

  1. Part 1: Safety of BMS-936559 in subjects with severe sepsis - measured by the incidence rates of death, AEs, SAEs, AEs leading to discontinuation, AEs of special interest and laboratory abnormalities

    Safety will be measured by the incidence rates of death, Adverse event (AEs), Serious adverse event (SAEs), AEs leading to discontinuation, AEs of special interest (identified from PD-L1 oncology trial), and laboratory abnormalities

    Measured: Approximately 3 months

  2. Part 1: Tolerability of BMS-936559 in subjects with severe sepsis

    Tolerability will be measured by the incidence rates of death, AEs, SAEs, AEs leading to discontinuation, AEs of special interest (identified from PD-L1 oncology trial), and laboratory abnormalities

    Measured: Approximately 3 months

  3. Part 2: All-cause mortality within 90 days of study drug administration

    Measured: Approximately 3 months

Secondary outcomes (18)
  1. Maximum observed serum concentration (Cmax) of BMS-936559

    Measured: Approximately 3 months

  2. Time of maximum observed serum concentration (Tmax) of BMS-936559

    Measured: Approximately 3 months

  3. Area under the serum concentration-time curve from time zero to time of last quantifiable concentration (AUC(0-T)) of BMS-936559

    Measured: Approximately 3 months

  4. Area under the serum concentration-time curve from time zero extrapolated to infinite time (AUC(INF)) of BMS-936559

    Measured: Approximately 3 months

  5. Total Body Clearance (CLT) of BMS-936559

    Measured: Approximately 3 months

  6. Volume of distribution at steady state (Vss) of BMS-936559

    Measured: Approximately 3 months

  7. Terminal serum half-life (T-HALF) of BMS-936559

    Measured: Approximately 3 months

  8. Receptor occupancy based on PD-L1 receptor occupancy levels

    Measured: Approximately 3 months

  9. Immune system function based on baseline and post-dosing assessments of mHLA-DR expression on monocytes at planned sampling timepoints

    Measured: Approximately 3 months

  10. Immune system function based on absolute lymphocyte counts at planned sampling timepoints

    Measured: Approximately 3 months

  11. Immune system function based on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced whole blood TNFalpha production levels at planned sampling timepoints

    Measured: Approximately 3 months

  12. Organ dysfunction measured by organ support-free days (OSFDs)

    OSFD is defined as the last period of organ support-free duration during the index hospitalization stay prior to discharge.

    Measured: Approximately 3 months

  13. Organ dysfunction measured by proportion of OSFDs during index hospitalization

    OSFD is defined as the last period of organ support-free duration during the index hospitalization stay prior to discharge.

    Measured: Approximately 3 months

  14. Duration of mechanical ventilation, vasopressor use, and/or dialysis use separately during the index hospitalization

    Measured: Approximately 3 months

  15. Incidence of secondary infections (as adjudicated by a clinical committee) up to 90 days post administration of BMS-936559

    Measured: Approximately 3 months

  16. All-cause mortality at 28 days, 90 days, and 1 year after study drug administration

    All-cause mortality at 28 days, 90 days, and 1 year post administration of BMS-936559.

    Time to death will also be used to assess the treatment effect.

    Measured: Approximately 3 months

  17. Immunogenicity measured by number of subjects having detectable anti-drug antibodies (ADA) at baseline and following administration of BMS-936559.

    Measured: Approximately 3 months

  18. Immunogenicity measured by percentage of subjects having detectable anti-drug antibodies (ADA) at baseline and following administration of BMS-936559.

    Measured: Approximately 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BMS-936559 in people with Severe Sepsis and Septic Shock, run by Bristol-Myers Squibb at 13 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 4 inclusion and 6 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 15 Sep 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 13 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 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 was stopped early (reason given: Business Objectives Have Changed). 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?

Part 1: Safety of BMS-936559 in subjects with severe sepsis - measured by the incidence rates of death, AEs, SAEs, AEs leading to discontinuation, AEs of special interest and laboratory abnormalities (time frame: Approximately 3 months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT02576457, 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 15 Sep 2017.
