What is being measured

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

  1. Occurrence of any Serious Adverse Events (SAE) that are related to the study drug

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Number of patients who withdraw due to Adverse Events (AEs)

    The withdrawal criteria (continuation decision) in regards to the number of patients who withdraw due to AEs as well as the reason for withdrawal will be evaluated.

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Occurrence of any Grade 3 or higher AEs related to the study drug within 4 weeks after vaccination

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Immunological activity of AFFITOPE® vaccine PD01A

    Titer of vaccination induced antibodies directed towards vaccine components and the target (native aSyn) assessed by ELISA (or equivalent method)

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing AFFITOPE® PD01A in people with Parkinson's Disease, run by Affiris AG at 1 site in Austria.

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 11 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 5 Jun 2017. 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 Austria. 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 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?

Occurrence of any Serious Adverse Events (SAE) that are related to the study drug (time frame: 12 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 NCT02618941, 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 5 Jun 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 29 Oct 2026.
