Phase I Safety and Tolerability Study of Staphylococcal Protein A in Adult Patients With Chronic ITP

July 19, 2018 updated by: Protalex, Inc.

An Open Label, Sequential, Dose Escalation, Repeat-dose Study of the Safety, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Immunogenicity of PRTX-100 in Adult Patients With Chronic Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP)

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of multiple doses of Staphylococcal protein A (PRTX-100) in adult patients with Idiopathic Thrombocytopenia Purpura (ITP). The pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity and pharmacodynamics will also be studied.

Patients will be enrolled into 1 of 3 dose groups and receive 4 weekly IV doses of PRTX-100. A Safety Monitoring Committee will review safety data through Day 28 for the first 5 patients in a dose group before escalation to the next higher dose level. Patients will be followed for 8 weeks after dosing for safety, PK, immunogenicity and effect on platelet count(pharmacodynamics).
