Trial summary

Currently, hemophilia A patients are managed with prophylactic or on-demand replacement therapy with recombinant FVIII or alternative therapeutics. The major challenges of current treatment regimens, such as the short half-life of hemophilia therapeutics with the need for frequent IV injections, encourage the current… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Assessment of Safety and Preliminary Efficacy of ASC618 in Subjects With Severe and Moderately Severe Hemophilia A

Currently, hemophilia A patients are managed with prophylactic or on-demand replacement therapy with recombinant FVIII or alternative therapeutics. The major challenges of current treatment regimens, such as the short half-life of hemophilia therapeutics with the need for frequent IV injections, encourage the current efforts for gene transfer therapy.

This study will evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of ASC618, an AAV vector encoding B-domain deleted codon-optimized human factor VIII under a synthetic liver-directed promoter

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing ASC618 in people with Hemophilia A, run by ASC Therapeutics at 1 site 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 8 inclusion and 10 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Feb 2023. 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 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 combined 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.

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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Clinical Trial Manager, PhD ((408) 495-3891, gil.gonen@asctherapeutics.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of adverse events, and serious AEs (time frame: 12 months post-infusion). 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 1 Feb 2023.
