Repeated Treatments of QLT091001 in Subjects With Leber Congenital Amaurosis or Retinitis Pigmentosa (Extension of Study RET IRD 01)

July 25, 2014 updated by: QLT Inc.

An Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Effects of Repeated Treatments of Oral QLT091001 on Safety and Vision Outcome in Subjects With Leber Congenital Amaurosis (LCA) or Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP) Due to Inherited Deficiencies of Retinal Pigment Epithelial 65 Protein (RPE65) or Lecithin: Retinol Acyltransferase (LRAT) (Extension of Study RET IRD 01)

The purpose of this study is:

  • To evaluate the safety of up to 3 additional courses of oral QLT091001 administered once daily for 7 days in subjects treated previously with a single 7-day course of QLT091001 in Study RET IRD 01
  • To evaluate whether up to 3 additional courses of oral QLT091001 administered once daily for 7 days can maintain or improve visual function.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

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.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

5 years to 65 years (Child, Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects with LCA or RP due to RPE65 or LRAT deficiency who received a 7-day treatment course of QLT091001 and completed the Day 30 visit in Study RET IRD 01

  • Subjects who meet any one of the following criteria at least 1 month after start of the 7-day treatment course in Study RET IRD 01:

    • no increase in GVF (in at least 1 eye): Follow-up GVF increased ≤20% from baseline or
    • decrease in GVF (in at least 1 eye): Follow-up GVF decreased below the highest previous response by ˃20% or
    • Considered a reasonable candidate for retreatment, based on the Investigator's discretion, in consultation with the independent DSMB and the Sponsor, based on regression or lack of response in other parameters of visual function (e.g., subjective reports of changes in color vision or adaptation to low light) but who do not meet other (GVF) criteria for study entry

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects with any clinically important abnormal physical finding at Screening.
  • Subjects who have taken any prescription or investigational oral retinoid medication (e.g., Accutane,® Soriatane®) within 6 months of Day 0 and subjects who did not tolerate their previous oral retinoid medication will be excluded regardless of the time of last exposure.
  • Subjects with liver failure, uncontrolled thyroid disease, hypersensitivity to retinoids, or hypervitaminosis A
  • Subjects who have taken any supplements containing ≥10,000 IU vitamin A within 60 days of screening

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
Time Frame
Visual field
Time Frame: 12 months
12 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Safety will be assessed by evaluating the following: adverse events, clinical laboratory tests, ECG's and vital signs
Time Frame: 12 months
12 months

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
