TMC207-TiDP13-C208: Anti-bacterial Activity, Safety, and Tolerability of TMC207 in Participants With Multi-drug Resistant Mycobacterium Tuberculosis (MDR-TB).

April 10, 2014 updated by: Janssen Infectious Diseases BVBA

A Phase II, Placebo-controlled, Double-blind, Randomized Trial to Evaluate the Anti-bacterial Activity, Safety, and Tolerability of TMC207 in Subjects With Newly Diagnosed Sputum Smear-positive Pulmonary Infection With Multi-drug Resistant Mycobacterium Tuberculosis (MDR-TB).

The objective of this study is to demonstrate that the antibacterial activity of TMC207 is better than placebo when added to a standardized Background Regimen (BR) for treatment of multi-drug resistant TB. Also safety and tolerability will be evaluated.

Study Overview

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The trial will be conducted in 2 consecutive stages, an exploratory (investigative) stage (Stage 1) and a proof of effectiveness stage (Stage 2). During Stage 1, a panel of 50 participants will be randomized (participants are assigned different treatments based on chance) to receive either TMC207 or placebo for 8 weeks on top of a BR. In Stage 2, another panel of 150 participants will be randomized to receive either TMC207 or placebo for 24 weeks on top of a BR. TMC207 will be dosed as 400 mg every day for the first 2 weeks, and as 200 mg 3 times/week for the following 6 or 22 weeks during Stages 1 and 2, respectively. When the participants in Stage 1 have completed 8 weeks double-blind (neither theparticipant nor the physician knows whether drug or placebo is being taken, or at what dosage) treatment with TMC207 or placebo (or have discontinued earlier), the primary Stage 1 analysis will be performed on all data of the first 8 weeks of treatment. Following this Stage 1 analysis, Stage 2 will be initiated and a panel of 150 new participants will be enrolled. After the double-blind treatment phase in both Stage 1 and Stage 2, participants will continue to receive MDR-TB treatment as per national treatment guidelines. They will be followed for safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and microbiological efficacy for 96 weeks after receiving their last dose of TMC207 or placebo. The Data Safety Monitoring Board Committee will review these data on a regular basis. The DSMB/DSMC is a group of experts in tuberculosis and clinical trial conduct who have no commercial interests in the development of TMC207 and the company (Tibotec, BVBA) that is developing the new TB drug.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame

The table below shows the time to sputum culture conversion. Sputum culture conversion is defined as as having 2 consecutive negative cultures at least 25 days apart, not followed by a confirmed positive during the considered time period. Participants who discontinue or die during the considered time period are considered as non-responders and censored at their last assessment.
