Who cannot join

About this study

Official title: A Phase I Study of Inhaled KB407, a Replication-Incompetent, Non-Integrating Vector Expressing Human Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR), for the Treatment of Cystic Fibrosis

The Sponsor is developing KB407, a replication-defective, non-integrating herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1)-derived vector engineered to deliver functional full-length human Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) to the airways of people with cystic fibrosis via nebulization. This study is designed to evaluate safety and tolerability of KB407 in people with cystic fibrosis. This study will enroll 4 participants into each of the first two cohorts and will enroll five subjects into the last cohort. Cohort 1 will receive a single dose of KB407 and be followed for 60 days. Subjects in Cohort 1 may rollover into Cohort 2 at the Day 28 Visit. A Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) will meet to determine study progress from Cohort 2 into Cohort 3. In Cohort 2, subjects will be dosed bi-weekly at Day 0 and Day 14. In Cohort 3 subjects will be dosed weekly at Day 0, Day 7, Day 14 and Day 21. All subjects will be followed for a year after the last dose of KB407.

What is being measured

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

  1. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of KB407 in subjects with Cystic Fibrosis through adverse events as assessed by NCI-CTCAE v5.0

    Number of participants with treatment related adverse events as assessed by NCI-CTCAE v5.0

    Measured: Baseline to End of the treatment assessed up to an average of 60 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To measure the difference in lung function over the course of the study, by change from baseline in forced expiratory volume (FEV1).

    Assessment of forced expiratory volume, in one second (FEV1,) will be assessed by pulmonary function test (PFT) as compared to baseline.

    Measured: Baseline to End of the treatment up to an average of 60 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing KB407 (Nebulization) in people with Cystic Fibrosis, run by Krystal Biotech, Inc. at 1 site in Australia.

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 4 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Aug 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 Australia. 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

To evaluate the safety and tolerability of KB407 in subjects with Cystic Fibrosis through adverse events as assessed by NCI-CTCAE v5.0 (time frame: Baseline to End of the treatment assessed up to an average of 60 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 14 Aug 2023.
