HAT in Eye Complications of Behcet's Disease
A Study to Investigate the Safety and Efficacy of HAT to Treat the Ocular Complications Related to Behcet's Disease
This study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Zenapax in controlling recurrent eye inflammations associated with Behcet's disease.
Behcet's disease is usually treated with corticosteroids to suppress inflammation. Other medicines such as methotrexate, cyclophosphamide, or azathioprine may also be used. These drugs all can have serious side effects, including liver or kidney damage. Zenapax is a monoclonal antibody that binds to certain proteins (receptors) on white blood cells, preventing them from interacting with a chemical called interleukin-2. Blocking this interaction prevents inflammation.
This study will include 20 patients who had unacceptable side effects from other medicines used to treat their disease; did not benefit from standard treatment; and refused standard treatment because of possible side effects of the medicines.
All patients in the study will continue to take their current medicines at the start of the study. In addition, one group of patients will receive Zenapax and a second group will receive a placebo. The drug or placebo will be infused into the vein at the start of the study and every two weeks for the next six weeks, and then every four weeks for the rest of the study period (24 months). Each infusion lasts about 15 minutes. Patients will have eye examinations at the time of every treatment, and medicines will be added if needed to control eye disease. Drugs will be tapered after six months in patients whose eye disease is quiet, and readjusted as necessary. Neither the doctors nor the patients will know who is receiving placebo and who is receiving Zenapax until the study ends.
Patients will be given a physical examination, medical history, eye examination, fluorescein angiography (special photographs of the retina to evaluate the blood vessels in the eye), and blood tests.
Zenapax was previously studied in 10 patients with uveitis with positive results. The patients were able to reduce the other medicines they were taking with minimal side effects.

Descrizione
INCLUSION CRITERIA:
Patients must be 18 years of age or older for the primary randomized cohort.
Up to six additional patients under 18 but more than 6 years of age may enroll in a separate stratum.
Patients has ocular complications of Behcet's disease.
Patients is currently taking a minimum of 15 mg of prednisone, or cyclosporine, or anti-metabolites, or any combination of these for the treatment of their intraocular inflammatory disease and retinal vasculitis for at least the past 3 months.
Patients must have had at least two documented ocular attacks due to their Behcet's disease involving the posterior segment.
Patients has normal renal or liver function or evidence of only mild abnormalities as defined by the WHO criteria.
Patients has a neutrophil count above 750.
Patients agrees to use acceptable birth control methods throughout the course of the study and for 6 months after completion of treatment if assigned to Zenapax. If patient is assigned to placebo and has been unmasked, the patient need not practice birth control.
Patients is able to understand and sign a consent form before entering into the study. Minor patients will be required to sign an assent.
EXCLUSION CRITERIA:
Patients has received previous treatment with an IL-2 directed monoclonal antibody or any other investigational agent that would interfere with the ability to evaluate the safety, efficacy, or pharmacokinetics of Zenapax.
Patients has significant active infection.
Patients has a history of cancer (other than non-melanoma skin cancer) within the past 5 years.
Patient is pregnant or lactating.
Patients with significant symptomatic neurological disease which complicates evaluation of neurological sequelae of Behcet's disease. This would include multiple sclerosis, stroke, and other neurodegenerative disease are not eligible. Neuro-Behcet's disease would be permitted.
In the opinion of the treating physicians the ocular disease is end-stage, and there would be no reasonable hope for an improvement in visual acuity.
Patient has used Latanoprost within two weeks prior to enrollment, or has a current or likely need for Latanaprost during the course of the study.
