A Study of the Safety and Pharmacokinetics of an Anti-Inflammatory Therapeutic Antibody (MABp1) in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

February 17, 2021 updated by: Janssen Research & Development, LLC

A Phase II Study of the Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Preliminary Efficacy of an Anti-Inflammatory Therapeutic Antibody (MABp1) in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

The purpose of this study is to determine if T2-18C3, a true human monoclonal antibody that blocks inflammation, is safe to use in patients with type 2 diabetes. The study will also be looking at the ability of T2-18C3 to improve control of blood sugar levels in diabetics by blocking inflammation in the pancreas.

Detailed Description

This is a phase I, open label study of the safety and pharmacokinetics of T2-18C3 in patients with T2D. Nine patients will receive four biweekly IV infusions of the study drug, T2-18C3, at a dose level of 1.25 mg/kg. These patients will be followed for a total of 90 days to examine safety, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary efficacy.

  • Agrees not to change diet and exercise regimen during the trial
  • Signed and dated Ethics Committee (EC) approved informed consent before any protocol-specific screening procedures are performed

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Use of the following medications:

    • Daily use of steroids or aspirin ≥ 700 mg per week
    • Immunosuppressive treatment
    • Thiazolidinediones
    • Concomitant treatment with any other therapeutic antibody, or treatment with any biologic agent that blocks the IL-1 or TNFα signaling pathway
  • Change in medication for diabetes within 28 days prior to Day 0, defined as a change in dosing level on 4 or more consecutive days or 7 days in total
  • Hemoglobin <10.0 g/dL, WBC <3.0 x 103/mm3 , platelet count <125 x 103/mm3, creatinine > 1.5mg/dL, AST/ALT >2 x ULN, alkaline phosphatase >2 x ULN
  • Abnormal, untreated T3, T4, thyroglobulin, or TSH levels or history of Grave's disease
  • Known HIV antibody, hepatitis B surface antigen and/or hepatitis C antibody
  • History of malignancy within 5 years prior to study entry other than carcinoma in situ of the cervix, or adequately treated, nonmetastatic squamous or basal cell carcinoma of the skin
  • History of severe allergic or anaphylactic reactions to humanized or murine monoclonal antibodies
  • History of tuberculosis, positive PPD test, active atopic disease requiring medication, or asthma
  • Infectious disease:

    • CRP >30 mg/L, fever, or infection requiring treatment with antibiotics within 3 weeks prior to Screening
    • History of recurrent infection or predisposition to infection
    • Active leg or foot ulcer
  • Immunodeficiency
  • Female patients who are pregnant, planning to become pregnant during the course of the study, or breast-feeding
  • Receipt of a live (attenuated) vaccine within 3 months prior to Screening
  • Major surgery within 28 days prior to Day 0
  • Participation in an investigational drug or device trial within 30 days prior to Screening

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Safety and Tolerability
Time Frame: 90 days
The safety and tolerability of T2-18C3 will be determined by observing patients for clinical adverse events, changes in vital signs, and changes in laboratory parameters such as hematology and chemistry.
90 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Pharmacokinetics
Time Frame: 90 days
Serum levels of T2-18C3 will be measured in patients
90 days
Preliminary Efficacy
Time Frame: 90 days
The ability of T2-18C3 to improve glycemic control will be measured by comparing the change in glycosylated hemoglobin levels of patients from baseline to day 90.
