About this study

Official title: Phase I Clinical Trial of CBP/Beta-catenin Inhibitor OP-724 in Liver Cirrhosis Patients Caused by HIV/HCV Co-infection with Hemophilia. (OP-724-H101)

To evaluate the safety and tolerability of OP-724 in liver cirrhosis patients caused by HIV/HCV co-infection with hemophilia.

Read the detailed description

This trial is an uncontrolled, open-label, single-center phase I study in liver cirrhosis patients caused by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/hepatitis C virus (HCV) co-infection with hemophilia.

Liver cirrhosis patients due to co-infection of HIV and HCV with hemophilia who have a Child-Pugh classification of A or B are included. OP-724 is intravenously administered twice a week (4 hours) for 12 weeks as an administration schedule.

At 14 days before the administration of the first cycle, the dose planned for the first cycle will be administered once by continuous intravenous administration for 4 hours, and the safety and pharmacokinetics will be evaluated from the day of administration to the day after the administration. If an integrase inhibitor is used in combination as a key drug for antiretroviral drugs, its pharmacokinetics will be evaluated at the same time.

A dose escalation study with 2 doses (cohort 1: 140 mg/m2/4hr (starting dose), cohort 2: 280 mg/m2/4hr) will be conducted, and 3 patients in each cohort will be enrolled. Comprehensively investigate the safety and pharmacokinetic data after OP-724 administration, and evaluate the safety and tolerability of OP-724 administration.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • OP-724Drug

    Also called CBP-beta-catenin inhibitor, PRI-724 (former name)

    Twice a week for 4 hours continuous intravenous administration of OP-724.

Study groups in NCT04688034
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
OP-724 400 mg / 20 mL / vial (20 mg / mL)ExperimentalDose: [Cohort 1] 140 mg/m2/4 hours (starting dose) , [Cohort 2] 280 mg/m2/4 hours Administration method: In the single administration, the safety of concomitant use with the investigational drug and antiretroviral drug will be confirmed and then the cycle administration will be started. For the single administration, at 14 days before the first cycle of administration, the dose planned for the first cycle with continuous intravenous administration for 4 hours will be administrated once. When an integrase inhibitor is used in combination as a key drug for antiretroviral drugs, it should be administered at the same time as the start of investigational drug administration only after the single administration. For the cycle administration, the continuous intravenous administration for 4 hours twice a week is defined as one cycle, and 12 cycles (12 weeks in total) will be performed.
Receives: Drug: OP-724

  14. Child-Pugh Score

    Amount of change from baseline in Child-Pugh Score at 12 weeks after administration. Child Pugh score (scale range 5-15 points, the severity increases sequentially from 5 to 15 points) is obtained by adding the score for each parameter (hepatic encephalopathy, ascites, bilirubin, albumin, PT). Based on the total points score (Child-Pugh Score) of each diagnostic parameter shown above, the severity of the disease is classified into Grades A to C shown below.

    • Grade A: 5-6 points -> Compensated cirrhosis
    • Grade B: 7-9 points -> Decompensated cirrhosis
    • Grade C: 10-15 points -> Decompensated cirrhosis

    Measured: Baseline and 12 weeks after administration

  15. MELD Score

    Amount of change from baseline in MELD score at 12 weeks after administration.

    The Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) is a scoring system for assessing the severity of chronic liver disease and uses the subject's values for total bilirubin, serum creatinine, and the international normalized ratio (INR) for prothrombin time to predict survival. MELD is calculated according to the following formula:

    • MELD score = 3.78×ln[serum bilirubin (mg/dL)] + 11.2×ln[INR] + 9.57×ln[serum creatinine (mg/dL)] + 6.43

    Measured: Baseline and 12 weeks after administration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing OP-724 in people with Liver Cirrhosis, run by Kiminori Kimura, MD at 1 site in Japan.

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 15 inclusion and 22 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 21 Oct 2024. 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 Japan. 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?

Serious Adverse Events (Side Effects) (time frame: 28 days after the last administration of OP-724.). 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 NCT04688034, 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 21 Oct 2024.
