About this study

Official title: A Multi-Center, Phase 2, Open Label, Ascending Dose Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of RVP-001 and to Identify an Appropriate Dose to Detect CNS Lesions in Adult Patients

This Phase 2 clinical trial will study RVP-001, a new manganese-based MRI contrast agent, in people who are known to have gadolinium-enhancing central nervous system (CNS) lesions, for example brain tumors or multiple sclerosis.

The goal of this study is to assess safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of RVP-001 at three dose levels. The study will also compare RVP-001 imaging to gadolinium-based contrast agent (GBCA) imaging. A single dose of RVP-001 will be administered to each subject. Subjects will have known gadolinium-enhancing CNS lesions and will have a gadolinium-based contrast agent-enhanced MRI of the brain 2-14 days before receiving RVP-001 with imaging.

The ultimate goal of this research program is development of a gadolinium-free alternative to current general purpose MRI contrast agents.

Read the detailed description

Subjects may include individuals who have a stable primary brain tumor, metastatic brain tumors, multiple sclerosis, or other gadolinium-enhancing CNS lesions. Following the screening GBCA-enhanced MRI scan to confirm presence of target lesion(s), a baseline unenhanced MRI scan will be performed prior to RVP-001 injection. Dynamic imaging will be performed in conjunction with RVP-001 injection. Steady state imaging will follow at multiple time points during the first hour following dose administration to characterize the pharmacodynamics of RVP-001 and to assess its ability to enhance visualization of areas with disrupted blood brain barrier and/or abnormal vascularity of the central nervous system.

Three dose cohorts are planned.

An unenhanced MRI scan follow-up study will be performed between one week and six weeks following the administration of RVP-001.

Safety will be evaluated throughout the study by assessing the following parameters: adverse events (AEs), physical examinations, injection site monitoring, electrocardiograms (ECGs), vital signs, clinical laboratory evaluations, medical history, and prior and concomitant medications.

What is being measured

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

  1. Adverse Events

    Treatment-emergent adverse events for each dose level will be summarized.

    Measured: From time of dosing to 7 days post dose

  2. Lesion visualization criteria for RVP-001 enhanced MRI compared to unenhanced MRI

    The lesion visualization criteria is based on 3 criteria: border delineation, lesion contrast, and internal morphology. These criteria will be assessed by independent readers for representative lesions using the images acquired during the MRI performed with RVP-001.

    Measured: 1 day

  3. Lesion visualization criteria for RVP-001 compared to gadolinium-based contrast agent (GBCA)

    The lesion visualization criteria is based on 3 criteria: border delineation, lesion contrast, and internal morphology. These criteria will be assessed by independent readers for representative lesions using the images acquired with RVP-001 and those acquired with the GBCA.

    For each reader, only matching lesion-pairs present in both MRI image sets (using GBCA and RVP-001) will be considered.

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing RVP-001 in people with Central Nervous System (CNS) Lesions and Brain Metastases, run by Reveal Pharmaceuticals Inc. at 5 sites 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 4 inclusion and 4 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 26 Dec 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites 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?

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?

Adverse Events (time frame: From time of dosing to 7 days post dose). The study lists 3 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 26 Dec 2025.
