Phase 1 Study of Safety and Biological Effects of C326, an Inhibitor of IL-6, in Crohn’s Disease

This study is currently recruiting participants.
Verified by Avidia, September 2006

Sponsored by: Avidia
Information provided by: Avidia
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00353756
  Purpose

The purpose of this study is to determine whether C326, a new inhibitor of IL-6, is safe in patients with Crohn's disease.


Condition Intervention Phase

U.S. FDA Resources

Study Type:   Interventional
Study Design:   Treatment, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo Control, Parallel Assignment, Safety Study
Official Title:   A Placebo-Controlled, Phase 1, Single and Multiple IV Dose Escalation Study of the Safety, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Immunogenicity of C326 in Adults With Crohn’s Disease

Further study details as provided by Avidia:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Safety evaluations

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Pharmacokinetics
  • Biomarker changes -- IL-6, CRP and other acute phase reactants
  • Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI)

Estimated Enrollment:   52
Study Start Date:   September 2006
Estimated Study Completion Date:   September 2007

Detailed Description:

Determination of safety is the most important goal of this first study with C326. Other goals of the study are to examine:

  • pharmacokinetics (change in serum concentrations over time),
  • biological activity (change in blood markers relecting activity of Crohn's Disease),
  • effects on symptoms of Crohn's disease.

Participants may receive either a single or several intravenous infusions of C326 or matching placebo.
