About this study

Official title: A Phase 2, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Safety and Efficacy Study of Dutogliptin in Combination With Filgrastim in Early Recovery Post-Myocardial Infarction

A Phase 2, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Safety and Efficacy Study of Dutogliptin in Combination with Filgrastim in Early Recovery Post-Myocardial Infarction

Read the detailed description

Dutogliptin 60 mg administered by twice daily subcutaneous (SC) injection for 14 days in combination with a fixed standard dose of filgrastim (10 µg/kg) administered SC daily for 5 days. This study will be conducted in adults with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) with successful revascularization following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and stent implantation.

Primary Objective

  • To evaluate the safety and tolerability of dutogliptin in combination with filgrastim in subjects with STEMI compared with placebo

Secondary Objectives

  • To assess preliminary efficacy of dutogliptin in combination with filgrastim in subjects with STEMI compared with placebo as determined by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (cMRI)
  • To determine the pharmacokinetics (PK) of dutogliptin in a subset of the study population
  • To establish the pharmacodynamics (PD) of dutogliptin (plasma DPP4 activity) in a subset of the study population

Exploratory Objectives

  • To examine the effects of dutogliptin in combination with filgrastim on:
  • Change from baseline in plasma stromal cell-derived factor (SDF)-1a levels
  • Change from baseline in plasma biomarkers, including N-terminal pro-b-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and high sensitivity troponin

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Dutogliptin Tartrate and Filgrastim Injectable Product in people with Acute Myocardial Infarction and Acute Myocardial Ischemia, run by Recardio, Inc. at 12 sites in 5 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 8 inclusion and 31 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 May 2021. 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 Hungary, Poland, Austria, Belgium, Netherlands. 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?

Safety assessment of the number of Grade 3 and 4 treatment emergent AEs or serious AEs (SAEs) as assessed by CTCAE v4.0.AEs (SAEs) as assessed by CTCAE v4.0. (time frame: 90 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 27 May 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
