What participants receive

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

  • HypericinDrug

    Also called HyBryte, SGX301

    HyBryte is synthetic hypericin formulated as a 0.25% hypericin ointment.

Study groups in NCT05380635
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
HyBryte (0.25 % Hypericin)ExperimentalHyBryte (0.25 % hypericin) ointment will be applied to CTCL lesions and treated with visible light 18-24 hours later starting at 5 J/cm^2. Drug application/light session will be done twice a week (at least 2 calendar days apart) for 8 weeks.
Receives: Drug: Hypericin

What is being measured

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

  1. Electrocardiograms (ECG)

    Assess any ECG QT interval changes (defined as any occurrences of QT interval >500 ms or changes in QT interval >60 ms) during standard HyBryte photodynamic therapy.

    Measured: 10 weeks

  2. Systemic Blood Levels

    Assess the systemic blood levels of hypericin during standard HyBryte photodynamic therapy.

    Measured: 10 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Number of Responders and Non-Responders With a Treatment Response in 3 Treated Lesions as Defined as a ≥50% Improvement in the Composite Assessment of Index Lesion Disease Severity (CAILS) Score.

    A treatment response was defined as a ≥50% improvement in CAILS score at Week 10 when compared to the CAILS score at baseline.

    The Composite Assessment of Index Lesion Disease Severity (CAILS) score measures: Erythema (or redness) on a scale of 0 (no redness) to 8 (very red), Scaling on a scale of 0 (no scaling) to 8 (all of the lesion is covered by a very rough surface), Plaque Elevation on a scale of 0 (no evidence of plaque above normal skin level) to 3 (plaque shows marked elevation above normal skin level) and Surface Area on a scale of 0 (no lesion/surface area is 0 cm^2) to 18 (the lesion is larger than 300 cm^2). A lower score means a better outcome.

    The overall CAILS score was calculated by adding the total score as described above for each of the 3 lesions. The overall CAILS score has a range of 0 to 111. A lower score means a better outcome.

    Measured: 10 weeks

  2. Number of Index Lesions With a Treatment Response as Defined as a ≥50% Improvement in the Composite Assessment of Index Lesion Disease Severity (CAILS) Score.

    A treatment response was defined as a ≥50% improvement in CAILS score at Week 10 when compared to the CAILS score at baseline in each of the individual Index Lesions.

    The Composite Assessment of Index Lesion Disease Severity (CAILS) score measures: Erythema (or redness) on a scale of 0 (no redness) to 8 (very red), Scaling on a scale of 0 (no scaling) to 8 (all of the lesion is covered by a very rough surface), Plaque Elevation on a scale of 0 (no evidence of plaque above normal skin level) to 3 (plaque shows marked elevation above normal skin level) and Surface Area on a scale of 0 (no lesion/surface area is 0 cm^2) to 18 (the lesion is larger than 300 cm^2). A lower score means a better outcome.

    Measured: 10 weeks

  3. Number of Index Lesions With a Complete Response as Defined as a 100% Improvement in the Composite Assessment of Index Lesion Disease Severity (CAILS) Score.

    A complete response was defined as a 100% improvement in CAILS score (a CAILS score of 0) at Week 10 in each of the individual Index Lesions.

    The Composite Assessment of Index Lesion Disease Severity (CAILS) score measures: Erythema (or redness) on a scale of 0 (no redness) to 8 (very red), Scaling on a scale of 0 (no scaling) to 8 (all of the lesion is covered by a very rough surface), Plaque Elevation on a scale of 0 (no evidence of plaque above normal skin level) to 3 (plaque shows marked elevation above normal skin level) and Surface Area on a scale of 0 (no lesion/surface area is 0 cm^2) to 18 (the lesion is larger than 300 cm^2). A lower score means a better outcome.

    Measured: 10 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Hypericin in people with Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma/Mycosis Fungoides, run by Soligenix 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 2 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Jun 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 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 7 Jun 2023). 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?

Electrocardiograms (ECG) (time frame: 10 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 7 Jun 2023.
