AFF008E: Observational Phase 1b Follow-up Extension Study for Patients With Parkinson's Disease After Immunization With AFFITOPE® PD01A

August 14, 2015 updated by: Affiris AG

AFF008E:Observational Follow-up Extension Study to Evaluate Long-term Safety and Tolerability of Immunization With AFFITOPE® PD01A Applied During AFF008 in Patients With Parkinson's Disease.

AFF008E is set-up to assess the long term effects of the 4 PD01A vaccinations that have been applied during AFF008 with regard to safety as well as immunological-, radiological and clinical activity. Accordingly, during AFF008E, no further vaccine dose will be applied. Instead, patients who were participating in AFF008 will be assessed for another 52 weeks at the occasion of 4 quarterly visits. This is offered to patients who received PD01A vaccinations but also to the patients who served as controls in AFF008. Thus, AFF008E will ensure standardized and controlled management of individuals who have received PD01A as part of AFF008, the Phase I study analyzing for the first time in humans this first in class candidate.

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

41 years to 66 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Only participants of AFF008 will be offered participation in AFF008E.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Written informed consent signed and dated by the patient
  • Participation in AFF008

Exclusion Criteria:

  • History of questionable compliance to visit schedule; patients not expected to complete the clinical trial
  • Participation in the active treatment phase of another clinical trial except AFF008 within 13 weeks before Visit 1 and for the whole study duration

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
Tolerability and Safety
Time Frame: 52 weeks

These will be based on the following parameters:

  • Withdrawal criteria (continuation decision) Number of patients who withdraw due to adverse events Reason for withdrawal
  • Occurrence of any serious adverse event possibly, probably or definitely related to the study vaccine at any time during the study.
  • Occurrence of any adverse events possibly, probably or definitely related to the study vaccine
52 weeks

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
Measure Description
Time Frame
Immunological and Clinical Efficacy
Time Frame: 52 weeks

Immunological parameters:

-Titer of antibodies specific for the immunizing peptide, keyhole limpet hemocyanin (carrier protein), α-Synuclein, β-Synuclein as assessed by Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay

Clinical efficacy variables:

  • Movement Disorder Society Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale III

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.

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.
