An Open Label Field Study of Anthim (Obiltoxaximab) in Subjects Exposed to B. Anthracis

Phase 4

Conditions
Infection, Bacterial
Anthrax
Interventions
Other: Collection of samples
Biological: Obiltoxaximab
Registration Number
NCT03088111
Lead Sponsor
Elusys Therapeutics
Brief Summary

This field study is a post-marketing requirement from the FDA to evaluate the clinical benefit (course of illness and survival), safety and pharmacokinetics of obiltoxaximab administered to patients as part of their medical care for treatment or prophylaxis of inhalational anthrax infection following exposure to Bacillus anthracis (B. anthracis). The protocol can be implemented for any individual who receives obiltoxaximab for a suspected, probable, or confirmed case of inhalational anthrax due to B. anthracis in the United States, including sporadic cases, small incidents and/or a mass event. In case of a small anthrax incident, to the extent possible, the information will be collected prospectively at prespecified time points, except where it would interfere with management of the subject's illness. However, because of the logistical complexities that would likely accompany a mass anthrax event, most data in this study are anticipated to be collected retrospectively. Both retrospective and prospective data collection are allowed to maximize information collection. This study will collect data on the use of obiltoxaximab in anthrax infected or exposed subjects and the data collected will inform the understanding of the clinical benefit and safety of obiltoxaximab.

ObiltoxaximabCollection of samplesThis is an open label, 24-week, single arm field study that will be implemented for subjects who receive FDA-approved obiltoxaximab as part of their medical treatment for inhalational anthrax infection in the United States. Adult subjects will be administered a single, intravenous (IV) dose of 16 mg/kg obiltoxaximab given as part of their medical care. Children will receive a weight-adjusted dose. The primary purpose of the study is to collect data from subjects who have been treated with obiltoxaximab as part of their medical care for inhalational anthrax and to collect additional blood samples for measurement of obiltoxaximab concentrations and presence of anti-therapeutic antibodies (ATA).

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Overall survival in suspected, probable, or confirmed cases of inhalational anthrax at Week 24Up to Week 24

Overall survival will be summarized by frequency of subjects who completed the study at Week 24, and subjects who died before that visit. Population survival distribution function (SDF) will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier (KM) method.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Incidence and duration of B. anthracis bacteremiaUp to Week 24

Incidence and duration of B. anthracis bacteremia will be summarized by total incidence across time points of subjects with bacteremia and time from study drug administration to onset of bacteremia.

Survival at Day 14 and Day 28Up to Day 28

Population survival rates at 14 and 28 days will be estimated using the KM method.

Duration of survival (to Week 24)Up to Week 24

The KM method will be used to estimate duration of survival.

Modified SOFA score (to Week 24)Up to Week 24

Modified sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) scores will be assessed using 5 organ systems (respiratory, liver, cardiovascular, central nervous system, renal).

Disease progression and associated complications rates of anthrax (meningitis, pleural effusion, ventilator support) (to Week 24)Up to Week 24

The progression to systemic anthrax infection and complication rates will be summarized using KM estimates associated with time to disease progression and time to complication of anthrax. The population SDFs of time to progression to systemic anthrax infection and of time to complication will be estimated using the KM method. Summary statistics of subjects with disease progression and complication rates will be provided.
