ALT-100mAb for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Phase 2
Recruiting
Research Sponsored by Aqualung Therapeutics Corp.
Eligibility Criteria Checklist
Specific guidelines that determine who can or cannot participate in a clinical trial
Must have
Radiological abnormalities on chest x-ray or computed tomography (CT) scan, ie, bilateral opacities that are not fully explained by effusions, nodules, masses, or lobar/lung collapse.
OR Participant presents with acute respiratory failure phenotypically similar to ARDS in a setting demonstrating clinical risk for ARDS, whether or not they meet the Berlin criteria, and requiring heated and humidified HFNC 30 L/min and above and 100 percent FiO2, or NIPPV (ie, BiPAP/CPAP) for hypoxemia.
Timeline
Screening 3 weeks
Treatment Varies
Follow Up up to 60 days

Summary

This trial is testing a new drug called ALT-100mAb in patients with moderate to severe Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) to see if it is effective and safe.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with moderate to severe ARDS, a type of lung failure that happens quickly after an injury or infection. They must have certain blood oxygen levels and be able to start treatment within specific time frames. Pregnant women can't join, and participants need to consent to the study's rules.
What is being tested?
The trial tests ALT-100mAb against a placebo in patients with ARDS. It's a Phase 2a study where patients are randomly assigned treatments without knowing which one they're getting (double-blind) across multiple hospitals.
What are the potential side effects?
While the side effects of ALT-100mAb aren't specified here, similar drugs may cause immune reactions, infusion-related discomforts, possible organ inflammation, and could affect how other medications work.

Secondary study objectives
Number of participants with abnormal clinical vital signs
Number of participants with abnormal clinically significant clinical laboratory results
PK of single IV infused dose of ALT-100
+16 more
Other study objectives
Exploratory - To assess the effect of ALT-100 on respiratory support requirements over time: MVFDs by Days 8, 15, 22, and 60.
Exploratory - To assess the effect of ALT-100 on respiratory support requirements over time: Number of participants progressing from non-invasive to invasive MV by Days 8, 15, 22, 29, and 60.
Exploratory - To assess the effect of ALT-100 on respiratory support requirements over time: Proportion of participants not on MV support on Days 8, 15, 22, 29, and 60.

Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Placebo Group
Group I: Part B (Dose Expansion) ALT-100 mAbExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Approximately 9 participants in each cohort in Part A, additional participants (up to 36 per dose cohort) may be enrolled into 2 dose expansion cohorts, the dose of which will be determined by the SRC. Drug: AT-02 Dosage: Will be decided by the SCR Route of Admin: Solution for IV Infusion
Group II: Part A : ALT-100 mAB (Dose Escalation)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
90 eligible participants will be randomized at a 2:1 ratio to receive a single dose of ALT-100 mAb. Part A will assess 2 doses of ALT-100 mAb in sequentially enrolled cohorts of up to 9 participants in each cohort. (Randomised, Double-blind) Drug: ALT-100 mAb Dosage Form: Sterile liquid, pH 5.5, Dosage: 0.4 mg/kg (Cohort 1a) and 1.0 mg/kg (Cohort 2a) Dosage Form \& Route of Admin: Solution for IV Infusion
Group III: Part A PlaceboPlacebo Group1 Intervention
Part A participants with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) (Randomised, Double-blind) Dosage Form \& Route of Admin: Normal Saline Solution for IV Infusion
