A Study of IV HBI-3000 for the Conversion Recent Onset Atrial Fibrillation (AF)
- Registration Number
- NCT04680026
- Lead Sponsor
- HUYABIO International, LLC.
- Brief Summary
This Phase 2 study is a two-stage, serial cohort dose escalation and expansion study of a single 30-minute (IV) infusion of HBI-3000 for the conversion of patients with recent-onset atrial fibrillation (AF).
Stage A is open label and all patients will receive HBI-3000. In each of three dose cohorts, up to 10 patients will receive HBI-3000 by IV infusion (30 minutes). Three different dose levels are planned to be administered serially, lowest to highest, with assessment of safety, tolerability, and efficacy prior to proceeding to the next dose level group.
Following Stage A, the iDMC will recommend up to two doses of HBI-3000 to be further explored in Stage B. Stage B is a serial, randomized, double-blind and placebo-controlled cohort of two different doses of HBI-3000, with a dose decision after the first cohort. Stage B will be powered to show a difference between HBI-3000 and placebo in conversion rate at each of the two dose levels.
- Detailed Description
This is a two-stage study in patients with AF of recent onset:
Stage A is open label and all patients will receive HBI-3000. In each of three dose cohorts, up to 10 patients will receive HBI-3000 by IV infusion (30 minutes). For each dosing cohort, sentinel dosing is planned. Each patient may enroll only once in the study, will be enrolled into only one dose cohort and receive only a single dose treatment. In Stage A, three different dose levels are planned to be administered serially, lowest to highest, with assessment of safety, tolerability, and efficacy prior to proceeding to the next dose level group. The actual dose levels may be modified, and additional dose levels may be considered based on the observed results at each cohort.
Stage B is the randomized, double-blind and placebo-controlled part of the study. Study drug for Stage B patients is either HBI-3000 or placebo. Two cohorts will be enrolled sequentially, lowest dose level first, with safety, efficacy, and available PK results evaluated by the Sponsor and iDMC prior to enrolling patients in the next/higher dose cohort. The dose level for the second cohort may be adjusted following interim review of results in the first cohort. Patients will be randomized to receive a single IV infusion of HBI 3000 or placebo over 30 minutes. In each of the dose cohorts, sequentially enrolled patients will be randomized at 2:1 ratio so that 40 patients will receive HBI 3000 infusion and 20 patients will receive placebo infusion. Each patient may enroll only once in the study, will be enrolled into only one dose cohort and receive only a single dose treatment.
