October 21, 2018 updated by: Genexine, Inc.

A Phase 1, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Multiple Ascending Dose Study to Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of GX-I7 in HPV-infected Female Volunteers

This is a phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple ascending dose study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of GX-I7 in HPV-infected female volunteers

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.

Detailed Description

The subjects who are adequately eligible to attend this clinical trial via screening will be assigned to four cohorts (five if necessary) and administered a single dose of GX-I7 solution or placebo drug for intravaginal injection at the visit 3 (Day0) and 7 (Day28). After completing scheduled tests at the visit 6 (Day 14), safety-related data of each cohort will be evaluated by Independent Safety Monitoring Committee (SMC). Dose escalation will proceed under the principal investigator, medical monitor, and the sponsor's mutual approval, referring to SMC's evaluation.

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

15 years to 41 years (Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Female

  • No clinical abnormality from ECG test
  • Must agree to use appropriate contraceptive methods (ie, condoms, cervical cap in conjunction with spermicide, sterilization, and intra uterine device) during the study and for 3 months after the last dose of study drug.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
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.
Experimental: Administraion of investigational product
  • 0.25mg, 1mg, 3mg, 6mg, or 9mg (optional) of GX-I7
  • 6 subjects per each cohort
  • twice administration with 4-week intervals
Drug: GX-I7
Interleukin-7 (IL-7) is T cell growth factor that can be used for treating lymphopenia patients. GX-I7 is a protein drug recombining human IL-7 and hybrid Fc (hyFc). HyFc made by Genexine is composed of hinge-CH2 region of Immunoglobulin D (IgD) and CH2-CH3 region of Immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4). The recombined region is not exposed and each region's characteristics can reduce immunogenicity and improve the efficacy of drug. Consequently, it will be able to treat the patients with lymphopenia in effective ways.
Other Names:
  • IL-7-hyFc
Placebo Comparator: Administraion of placebo
  • GX-I7 vehicle (formulation buffer)
  • 2 subjects per each cohort
  • twice administration with 4-week intervals
Drug: Placebo
This is the placebo of GX-I7 described above.
Other Names:
  • GX-I7 vehicle (formulation buffer)

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 primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of GX-I7 compared to placebo.
Time Frame: 12 weeks
Local and systemic adverse events will be assessed by Department of AIDS (Table for Grading the Severity of Adult and Pediatric Adverse Events, 2004) and Toxicity Grading Scale for Healthy Volunteers Enrolled in Preventive Vaccine Clinical Trials, respectively. Also, vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate, and body temperature), physical examination, laboratory tests, upper abdomen ultrasound, immunogenicity test, and concentration of the investigational drug in blood sample will be assessed throughout the screening and study period.
12 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
Type of Humanpapillo Virus (HPV) Persistent Infection of Human Papilloma Virus (HPV)
Time Frame: at week 0 (Day 0) and week 4 (Day 28)
Perform liquid-based cytology after each injections
