Summary

This is a seamless, Phase 1b/2 Multiple Ascending Dose (MAD)/Proof of Concept (POC) Study (hereafter referred to as Phase 2 Program) of XTMAB-16 in participants with pulmonary sarcoidosis with or without extrapulmonary involvement. The study is comprised of two parts: Part A is a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled multiple dose-escalating study, and Part B is a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled POC study.
The objective of Part A is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of MADs of XTMAB-16, and to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose and frequency for Part B for XTMAB-16 administration in participants with pulmonary sarcoidosis with or without extrapulmonary manifestations.
The objective of Part B is to confirm preliminary efficacy of XTMAB-16 as measured by the ability to reduce background oral corticosteroid use in participants with pulmonary sarcoidosis with or without extrapulmonary manifestations.

A Phase 1 Study of Inhaled KB408 for the Treatment of Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency

Date Added

PRO Number
Pro00132499
Researcher
Charlie Strange

List of Studies


Keywords
Genetics, Lung, Pulmonary, Shortness of Breath
Summary

This study is designed to learn about the safety and effectiveness of a new gene therapy called KB408 for Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency (AATD). AATD is an inherited condition in which a person has low blood levels of a protein known as alpha-1 protease inhibitor (called Alpha1-PI). AATD causes an increased risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in the form of emphysema (long term lung disease) and, less frequently, other diseases.
KB408 delivers copies of the genes that produce AAT to the lungs and is given by inhaling a mist (called nebulization). The genes are carried and delivered by a modified herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1). This virus is not harmful and simply acts as a vehicle to deliver the genes to the lungs. The genes that are delivered by KB408 do not change a person's own DNA. This is an open-label study, meaning that the participants, the study doctor, and the sponsor all know that the participants are receiving KB408. KB408 is an investigational product, meaning it is not approved for commercial use by the FDA.
Eligible participants will receive one of three doses of KB408. Participants will have a screening visit first to make sure that they are able to participate in the study. After the screening visit, participants will need to return to the study center 6 more times over 2 months. At the second visit, participants will receive the study drug. Each visit will take between 2 and 6 hours to complete. Study procedures include medical history collection, vitals, physical exam, ECG, spirometry and DLCO, urine cotinine test, blood work, cheek swab, sputum sample, and bronchoscopy (only for participants in cohorts 3a and 3b).
Possible side effects of KB408 include temporary increases in certain cell types in the lungs and temporary increases in the breathing rate after dosing. Since this is the first time that KB408 has been given to humans, it is possible that participants may have an immune reaction to the study drug. There is also a risk with genetic testing and a risk to confidentiality. Participants may not receive any personal benefit from being in this study. There is no guarantee that the Study Drug will help. The information that is collected from the study may help other people in the future.

Summary

This is a multi-center early feasibility study evaluating the safety and tolerability of the 3P-100 device which creates and delivers iNO for the treatment of subjects with PH-ILD. All subjects will use the 3P-100 device and receive iNO via the 3P-100 device, aiming for ~4-4.5 hours of treatment. All subjects will remain on their prescribed Oxygen (O2). The study consists of an SV, an iNO treatment period at V1 (Day 0), and a Telephone Call at V1 + 1 Day for safety follow-up.

Summary

The Alpha-1 Foundation Therapeutic Development Network (TDN) aims to make it easier to design and carry out clinical trials that enhance the treatment of patients with Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency (AATD). To achieve this, the TDN will establish a network of clinical trial centers that have enough patients to gather a comprehensive database of clinical and genetic information. This data will be crucial in determining the criteria for including or excluding participants in the trials and in recruiting suitable subjects.

Specifically, this study will enroll participants by in person or remote consent who will allow collection of medical records to be entered into an Alpha-1 TDN database. Participants will then be invited to future clinical trials.

Summary

The purpose of this study is to identify whether investigational blood and tissue testing can detect cancer cells in the blood stream can tell if subjects are responding to their individual treatment plans.

Participation will last as long as the subject's individual treatment plan and will consist of collecting tissue biopsies (10 slides), which will be taken during the subject's standard of care procedure, as well as blood draws (between 1 and 2 tablespoons), which will be taken during each of the subject's standard of care clinic appointments throughout their care journey.

Summary

The Southeastern Consortium for Lung Cancer Health Equity (SC3), led by Dr. Robert A. Winn, assembles an outstanding interdisciplinary team of translational researchers positioned in the heart of the historical and current tobacco-producing region within the southeast. Collectively, SC3's investigative team has unparalleled experience in lung cancer screening, translational research in lung cancer health disparities, community outreach and engagement, and recruiting and retaining racial and ethnic minorities and individuals from other medically underserved groups using evidence-based strategies. As NCI-designated cancer centers, all three centers report high enrollment of underserved minorities onto interventional trials and are committed to reducing the substantial disparities found in lung cancer outcomes in their collective Black/African American and rural communities.

Researcher
Christopher Gilbert

List of Studies

Keywords
Cancer, Lung, Pulmonary
Summary

This study is for patients scheduled for a bronchoscopy procedure for evaluation of lung transplantation, lung disease, and lung nodules. Those who give consent to participate in this study will be randomized into one of two lung biopsy sampling method groups: Group 1) 1.1 mm single-use Cryoprobe or Group 2) conventional 2.0 mm forceps. These devices are used with a bronchoscope to obtain lung tissue biopsy samples and are being evaluated to determine which is better for confirming a diagnosis. All procedures will be done via standard of care and screening will be accomplished via medical chart review. Subjects will have two in-person appointments and one follow-up telephone call. The first of which is their standard of care office visit with the doctor to go over their plan of care. The second visit is for the standard of care bronchoscopy procedure to obtain biopsy samples. Thirty days following the procedure, a member of the study team will call the subject to assess whether any adverse events may have occurred since the procedure.
