About this study

Official title: Phase 2 Multicenter, Open-Label, Uncontrolled Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Efficacy, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of RA101495 in Subjects With Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of zilucoplan (RA101495) in patients with Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH). There will be two groups of patients in the study: the first group will include patients who have never received eculizumab for treatment of PNH. The second group will include patients who have received treatment with eculizumab for at least 6 months prior to the study. Patients will be treated with RA101495 for 12 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change-from-baseline in Serum Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) Level.

    The primary efficacy endpoint is the change-from-baseline in serum LDH levels during this period, defined as the mean LDH values of Weeks 6, 8, 10, and 12 minus the baseline value of LDH.

    Measured: Through Week 12 of the study

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Changes From Baseline in Bilirubin Values

    Changes from baseline at each of the scheduled post-baseline time-points

    Measured: Through Week 12 of the study

  2. Total Hemoglobin

    Changes from baseline at each of the scheduled post-baseline time-points

    Measured: Through Week 12 of the Study

  3. Changes From Baseline in Free Hemoglobin Values

    Changes from baseline at each of the scheduled post-baseline time-points

    Measured: Through Week 12 of the study

  4. Haptoglobin Values

    Changes from baseline at each of the scheduled post-baseline time-points

    Measured: Through Week 12 of the Study

  5. Reticulocyte Values

    Changes from baseline at each of the scheduled post-baseline time-points

    Measured: Through Week 12 of the Study

  6. Hemoglobinuria Values

    Changes from baseline at each of the scheduled post-baseline time-points; Hemoglobinuria was assessed using a urine colorimetric scoring system with a score of 1 through 10. Where 1 represents no hemoglobinuria and 10 represents maximum hemoglobinuria.

    Measured: Through Week 12 of the Study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Zilucoplan (RA101495) in people with Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH), run by Ra Pharmaceuticals at 12 sites in 8 countries.

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 3 inclusion and 2 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 27 Jul 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites in Australia, Germany, New Zealand, United Kingdom, Canada and 3 more countries. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 10 Mar 2020). 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 in Serum Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) Level. (time frame: Through Week 12 of the study). 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 27 Jul 2022.
