Phase IB randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, dose escalation study of polyphenon E in women with hormone receptor-negative breast cancer.

ABSTRACT: Epidemiologic data support an inverse association between green tea intake and breast cancer risk, and numerous experimental studies have shown the antitumor effects of its main component, epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). We conducted a phase IB dose escalation trial in women with a history of stage I to III hormone receptor-negative breast cancer of an oral green tea extract, polyphenon E (Poly E) 400, 600, 800 twice daily or matching placebo for 6 months. The primary endpoint was to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), defined as the dose that causes 25% dose-limiting toxicity (DLT, grade ?II). Assignment to dose level was based upon an adaptive design, the continual reassessment method. A mammogram and random core biopsy of the contralateral breast were obtained at baseline and 6 months and serial blood/urine collections every 2 months for biomarker analyses. Forty women were randomized: 10 to placebo, 30 to Poly E (16 at 400 mg, 11 at 600 mg, 3 at 800 mg). There was one DLT at 400 mg (grade III rectal bleeding), three DLTs at 600 mg (grade II weight gain, grade III indigestion and insomnia), and one DLT at 800 mg (grade III liver function abnormality). The DLT rate at 600 mg was 27% (3 of 11). Pharmacologic levels of total urinary tea polyphenols were achieved with all three dose levels of Poly E. Using a novel phase I trial design, we determined the MTD for Poly E to be 600 mg twice daily. This study highlights the importance of assessing toxicity for any chemopreventive agent being developed for chronic use in healthy individuals.

Project description:ObjectivesTo evaluate the safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, and induced expression of skin biomarkers of AK111 injection after multiple administrations in subjects with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis.MethodsThis study is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-parallel-controlled study using a dose escalation mode of multiple doses. A total of 48 subjects were sequentially randomized to receive each AK111 dose regimen (75 mg, 150 mg, 300 mg, 450 mg) or the corresponding placebo. All subjects were treated with the study drug at weeks 0, 1, 4, and 8 and were unblinded at week 12, with the placebo group ending and the AK111 group being followed up to 20 weeks.ResultsAt week 12, compared with placebo, the percentage of subjects achieving Psoriasis Area and Severity Index 75 (PASI75) and static Physician Global Assessment (sPGA) 0/1 in the AK111 75 mg-450 mg dose groups was significantly increased, and higher PASI90 was achieved in the 150 mg, 300 mg, and 450 mg dose groups than in the 75 mg group. All efficacy indicators were maintained at week 20. The incidence of treatment-emergent anti-drug antibodies (ADAs) was 0% (0/48). Neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) were not detected in any subject. The proportion of subjects who reported any treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) was 75.0% in the AK111 group, similar to the 66.7% in the placebo group. The most commonly reported adverse events were hyperglycemia, elevated blood pressure, and hypokalemia. The AK111 pharmacokinetics showed approximate dose proportionality with regard to the maximum observed concentration (Cmax) and area under the curve from 0 to the time of the last quantifiable concentration (AUC0-t) following subcutaneous injection doses of 150-450 mg.ConclusionsAfter moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis subjects received multiple subcutaneous AK111 injections of 150-450 mg, AK111 exposure increased in a roughly dose-proportional relationship. AK111 was safe and tolerable. In subjects with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis, AK111 demonstrated encouraging preliminary efficacy, which was sustained for a relatively long time after the last dose administration.Clinical trial registrationThe clinical trial identification number is NCT05504317.

Project description:BackgroundDasiglucagon is a novel glucagon analog that is stable in aqueous formulation and approved for use in severe hypoglycemia. Concentration QTc analyses are critical for assessing risk of drug-induced QTc prolongation and potential for fatal cardiac arrhythmias such as torsades de pointes.ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to determine whether dasiglucagon treatment resulted in any clinically relevant effect on cardiac repolarization in healthy volunteers.MethodsThis double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-escalation Phase I trial was conducted at a single center in Germany between November 2018 and June 2019. Sixty healthy volunteers aged 18 to 45 years were randomized within dose cohorts to receive intravenous dasiglucagon, intravenous placebo, or subcutaneous dasiglucagon. In the intravenous administration cohorts, doses ranged from 0.03 mg to 1.5 mg. The subcutaneous administration cohort received the approved 0.6 mg dose. In the intravenous administration cohorts, serial electrocardiograms were extracted from continuous Holter monitors at prespecified time points beginning the day before dosing and through 24 hours postdose. Heart rate, PR interval, and QRS duration were evaluated. Concentration-QT analyses corrected by Fridericia's formula (QTcF) were performed using both a linear mixed-effects and a maximum estimated effect (Emax) model.ResultsAt the doses studied, dasiglucagon did not have any clinically relevant effect on heart rate, PR interval, or QRS duration. A minor prolongation of the QTcF interval was observed without any clear dose or concentration dependency. Both the linear and Emax models predicted mean and 90% CIs of placebo-corrected change in QTcF remained below 10 ms (the threshold of regulatory concern), although the linear model did not fit the data well at low dasiglucagon plasma concentrations. In the Emax model, the Emax of dasiglucagon was 3.6 ms (90% CI, 1.23-5.95 ms), and the amount to produce half the effect of Emax) was 426.0 pmol/L (90% CI, -48.8 to 900.71 pmol/L). The treatment effect-specific intercept was -0.44 ms (90% CI, -2.37 to 1.49 ms). The most frequently observed treatment-emergent adverse events reported in the trial were gastrointestinal disorders such as nausea and vomiting.ConclusionsDasiglucagon does not cause clinically relevant QTc prolongation in concentrations up to ≈30,000 pmol/L, a level 5-fold higher than the highest observed plasma concentrations in clinical trials investigating use of the approved 0.6 mg SC dose.

Project description:SHR-1222, a novel humanized monoclonal antibody targeting sclerostin, has been shown to induce bone formation and decrease bone resorption at a single dose ranging 50–400 mg in our previous phase 1 trial. This study was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-escalation phase 1 trial, which further investigated the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and immunogenicity of multiple ascending doses of SHR-1222 in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis (POP). A total of 105 women with POP were enrolled and randomly assigned. Twenty-one received placebo and eighty-four received SHR-1222 sequentially (100 mg QM, n=4; 200 or 300 mg QM, n=20; and 400 or 600 mg Q2M, n=20). The most common adverse events included increased blood parathyroid hormone, increased low-density lipoprotein, increased blood alkaline phosphatase, increased blood cholesterol, back pain, and arthralgia, the majority of which were mild in severity without noticeable safety concerns. Serum SHR-1222 exposure (Cmax,ss and AUC0-tau,ss) increased in a greater than dose-proportional manner. Following multiple doses of SHR-1222, the bone formation markers (terminal propeptide of type I procollagen, bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, and osteocalcin) increased in a dose-dependent manner, whereas the bone resorption marker (β-C-telopeptide) was downregulated. Accordingly, BMD gains in the lumbar spine, total hip, and femoral neck were observed. The maximum BMD increase from baseline at the lumbar spine was detected in the 300 mg QM cohort (14.6% vs. 0.6% in the placebo group on day 169). Six (6/83; 7.2%) subjects developed anti-SHR-1222 antibodies with no discernible effects on PKs, PDs, and safety. Thus, multiple doses of SHR-1222 showed an acceptable safety profile and dose-dependent plasma exposure in women with POP, and could improve their BMD rapidly and prominently by promoting bone formation and inhibiting bone resorption. These findings further support SHR-1222 as a potential alternative agent for the treatment of POP.

Project description:SHR-1222 is a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting sclerostin and has the potential to promote bone formation and reduce bone resorption. This study was aimed to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and immunogenicity of SHR-1222 in healthy men and postmenopausal women with low bone mass (BMD). It was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-escalation, phase I study. Subjects received SHR-1222 at 50, 100, 200, 300, and 400 mg sequentially or matching placebo subcutaneously. Totally, 50 subjects with low BMD were enrolled and randomly assigned; 10 received placebo and 40 received SHR-1222 (50 mg, n = 4; 100, 200, 300, or 400 mg, n = 9). The most common adverse events that occurred at least 10% higher in subjects with SHR-1222 treatment than those with placebo were decreased blood calcium, blood urine present, increased blood cholesterol, electrocardiogram T wave abnormal, urinary tract infection, increased blood pressure diastolic, and positive bacterial test. All the above adverse events were mild in severity and well resolved except one of increased blood cholesterol in a subject lost to follow-up. The serum SHR-1222 concentration increased in a dose-dependent manner. Administration of SHR-1222 upregulated the bone-formation markers N-terminal propeptide of type 1 procollagen, osteocalcin, and bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, while downregulated the bone-resorption marker β-C-telopeptide. The BMD at the lumbar spine notably rose after a single dose of SHR-1222. The largest increase occurred in the 400 mg cohort (3.8, 6.7, and 6.1% on day 29, 57, and 85, respectively; compared with 1.4, 0.8, and 1.0% in the placebo group). Although 10.0% of subjects receiving SHR-1222 tested positive for anti–SHR-1222 antibodies, no obvious effects of antibody formation were found on pharmacokinetics. Overall, SHR-1222 was well tolerated at doses from 50 to 400 mg and is a promising new remedy for osteoporosis. Clinical Trial Registration:http://www.clinicaltrials.gov, NCT03870100.

Project description:An intranasal COVID-19 vaccine, DelNS1-based RBD vaccines composed of H1N1 subtype (DelNS1-nCoV-RBD LAIV) was developed to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity in healthy adults. We conducted a phase 1 randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study on healthy participants, age 18-55 and COVID-19 vaccines naïve, between March and September 2021. Participants were enrolled and randomly assigned (2:2:1) into the low and high dose DelNS1-nCoV-RBD LAIV manufactured in chicken embryonated eggs or placebo groups. The low and high-dose vaccine were composed of 1 × 107 EID50/ dose and 1 × 107.7 EID50/ dose in 0.2 mL respectively. The placebo vaccine was composed of inert excipients/dose in 0.2 mL. Recruited participants were administered the vaccine intranasally on day 0 and day 28. The primary end-point was the safety of the vaccine. The secondary endpoints included cellular, humoral, and mucosal immune responses post-vaccination at pre-specified time-points. The cellular response was measured by the T-cell ELISpot assay. The humoral response was measured by the serum anti-RBD IgG and live-virus neutralizing antibody against SARS-CoV-2. The saliva total Ig antibody responses in mucosal secretion against SARS-CoV-2 RBD was also assessed. Twenty-nine healthy Chinese participants were vaccinated (low-dose: 11; high-dose: 12 and placebo: 6). The median age was 26 years. Twenty participants (69%) were male. No participant was discontinued due to an adverse event or COVID-19 infection during the clinical trial. There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse events (p = 0.620). For the T-cell response elicited after full vaccination, the positive PBMC in the high-dose group increased to 12.5 SFU/106 PMBC (day 42) from 0 (baseline), while it increased to 5 SFU/106 PBMC (day 42) from 2.5 SFU/106 PBMC (baseline) in the placebo group. The high-dose group showed a slightly higher level of mucosal Ig than the control group after receiving two doses of the vaccine (day 31, 0.24 vs. 0.21, p = 0.046; day 56 0.31 vs. 0.15, p = 0.45). There was no difference in the T-cell and saliva Ig response between the low-dose and placebo groups. The serum anti-RBD IgG and live virus neutralizing antibody against SARS-CoV-2 were undetectable in all samples. The high-dose intranasal DelNS1-nCoV-RBD LAIV is safe with moderate mucosal immunogenicity. A phase-2 booster trial with a two-dose regimen of the high-dose intranasal DelNS1-nCoV-RBD LAIV is warranted.
