Safety and Efficacy of Blocking IL-4 With Pascolizumab in Patients Receiving Standard Therapy for Pulmonary Tuberculosis

Safety and Efficacy of Blocking IL-4 With Pascolizumab in Patients Receiving Standard Combination Therapy for Pulmonary Tuberculosis (TB): a Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Proof-of-concept Clinical Trial
New approaches are needed to achieve more rapid elimination of dormant mycobacteria and thereby shorten treatment for drug-sensitive and drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB). Dormant mycobacteria are relatively resistant to antibacterial drugs and approaches that enhance immune clearance have the potential to be more effective. Interleukin-4 (IL-4) is a key cytokine in the immune response to TB that may impair the clearance of mycobacteria. We hypothesize that pascolizumab, an anti-IL-4 monoclonal antibody, might be of value as an adjunct to standard treatment.
The aims of this trial are to determine whether administration of pascolizumab as an adjunct to standard combination treatment for drug-sensitive TB produces changes in one or more parameters of bacterial or host response (including bacterial clearance, host clinical status, immune response, bacterial and host transcriptomics, lung imaging) that may indicate potential for enhanced sterilization and to confirm the safety of blocking IL-4 (previously demonstrated in healthy volunteers and patients with asthma) in patients with TB.

- No previous history of anti-TB therapy for active disease (treatment for latent disease acceptable).
- Willing to comply with the study visits and procedures
- Willing and able to provide written informed consent
Exclusion Criteria:
- More than 28 days of standard anti-TB chemotherapy at the time of randomization.
- Disseminated TB (lymphadenopathy is acceptable)
- Underlying serious chronic diseases such as those of the liver, kidney disease, blood disorders and Type I diabetes (controlled Type II diabetes is acceptable) or any significant organ dysfunction.

Våpen og intervensjoner
Deltakergruppe / Arm |
Intervensjon / Behandling |
|---|---|
|
Eksperimentell: Pascolizumab
The dose of study medication will be calculated using the patient's body weight and the appropriate dosing regimen based on the cohort of enrollment.
The medication will be administered by slow intravenous infusion over 1 hour under close medical supervision.
|
0.05mg/kg - 10mg/kg Pascolizumab according to dosing cohort
|
|
Placebo komparator: Placebo
For patients randomized to placebo, Sterile 0.9% w/v Sodium Chloride will be used for Injection, using the same volume that would have been prepared if the patient had been randomized to receive pascolizumab.
|
Saline (volume determined based on weight of patient, and cohort of enrollment)
