The Protégé Study - Clinical Trial of MGA031 in Children and Adults With Recent-Onset Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus
Interventions
Drug: Placebo
Biological: Teplizumab
Registration Number
NCT00385697
Lead Sponsor
MacroGenics
Brief Summary

The primary purpose of this protocol is to assess the efficacy, tolerability, and safety of MGA031 when administered according to 3 different MGA031 dosing regimens in children and adults with recent-onset (diagnosis within past 12 weeks) type 1 diabetes mellitus. All regimens will be administered as an addition to insulin and other standard of care treatments. Efficacy will be defined primarily by the capacity of MGA031 to markedly reduce typical insulin requirements while maintaining relatively normal blood sugar levels.

Other studies involving the study drug use the name hOKT3γ1 (Ala-Ala). MGA031, a humanized monoclonal antibody, is the name used for hOKT3γ1 (Ala-Ala) that is produced by MacroGenics, Inc. The United States Adopted Name (USAN) for MGA031 is teplizumab.

  2. Diagnosis of type 1 diabetes mellitus, according to the American Diabetes Association (ADA) criteria

  3. Requirement for injected insulin therapy

  4. Have a detectable fasting or stimulated C-peptide level (above the lower limit of detection of the assay)

  5. One positive result on testing for any of the following antibodies:

    1. islet-cell autoantibodies (ICA512/IA-2),
    2. glutamic acid decarboxylase autoantibodies, or
    3. insulin autoantibodies (if present during first 2 weeks, but not beyond 2 weeks, of insulin treatment)
  6. Male or female

  7. Subject must be in one of the following age groups:

    • Age 18-35 years
    • Age 12-17 years pending approval by Data Monitoring Committee
    • Age 8-11 years pending approval by Data Monitoring Committee
  8. Body weight ≥ 36 kg

Exclusion Criteria

Subjects must have none of the following:

  1. Prior administration of a monoclonal antibody -- within the 1 year before enrollment or randomization at Study Day 0 -- that could potentially prevent or confound a therapeutic response to MGA031
  2. Participation in any type of therapeutic drug or vaccine clinical trial within the 12 weeks before enrollment or randomization
  3. Any medical condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would interfere with safe completion of the trial
  4. Pregnant or lactating females
  5. Prior murine OKT®3 treatment at any time before enrollment or randomization
  6. Current or planned therapy with exenatide or any other agents that stimulate pancreatic beta cell regeneration or insulin secretion
  7. Current or planned therapy with inhaled insulin
  8. Uncompensated heart failure, fluid overload, myocardial infarction or evidence of ischemic heart disease, or other serious cardiac disease within the 12 weeks before enrollment or randomization
  9. History of epilepsy, cancer, cystic fibrosis, sickle cell anemia, neuropathy, peripheral vascular disease or cerebrovascular disease
  10. Newly diagnosed hypothyroidism (not currently being treated but which, in the opinion of the investigator, should be treated) or active Graves' disease
  11. Eczema, asthma or severe atopic disease requiring treatment within the 12 weeks before enrollment or randomization
  12. Evidence of active infection, such as fever ≥ 38.0 degrees Celsius (100.5 degrees Fahrenheit)
  13. Known or suspected infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
  14. Evidence of active hepatitis B (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV)
  15. Evidence of active or latent tuberculosis
  16. Vaccination with a live virus within the 8 weeks before enrollment or randomization or planned live virus vaccination continuing through week 52 of the study. Vaccination with an antigen or killed organism must not be given within 8 weeks before or planned within 8 weeks after each dosing cycle.
  17. Any infectious mononucleosis-like illness within the 6 months before enrollment or randomization
  18. Serologic and clinical evidence of acute infection with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)
  19. Serologic evidence of acute infection with cytomegalovirus (CMV)
