A Phase I/II Study of AGA111 for Lumbar Interbody Fusion in Patients With Degenerative Disc Disease

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Degenerative Disc Disease
Interventions
Drug: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT05574543
Lead Sponsor
Angitia Biopharmaceuticals
Brief Summary

The objectives of the study are to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of a single administration of AGA111 for lumbar interbody fusion in patients with degenerative disc disease.

Detailed Description

A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 1/2 study to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of single administration of AGA111 for lumbar interbody fusion in patients with degenerative disc disease. A total of 60 participants will be enrolled and randomized to placebo, AGA111 0.25 mg, or AGA111 0.5 mg at 1: 1: 1 ratio. All participants will undergo lumbar interbody fusion and receive study treatment during the surgery.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of participants with adverse events (AEs)Up to 12 months

An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of the investigational product (IP), whether or not considered related to the IP. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of IP.

Number of participants who develop anti-drug antibody to AGA111Up to 90 days post operation

Blood samples taken prior to the operation and 5 days, 28 days and 90 days post operation were tested for anti-AGA111 antibodies using an immunoassay method.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Radiographic fusion successUp to 12 months post operation

Radiographic fusion success is defined as evidence of continuous bone bridging from the superior to the inferior vertebrae via CT evaluation and no evidence of motion as defined by less than 3mm translational motion and less than 5° in angular motion at the treated level via hyperextension and hyperflexion X-rays.

New Bone formationUp to 12 months post operation

New bone formation is defined as the ratio of successful fusion area to the total area in the transverse plane of CT scan.

Oswestry Disability Index (ODI)Up to 12 months post operation

The change of point in ODI from baseline.

Pain score through Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)Up to 12 months post operation

The change of point in VAS from baseline.

Maximum Concentration (Cmax) of AGA11190 minutes before administration, and 30 minutes, 1 hour, 6 hours, and 24 hours post administration.

Maximum concentration of AGA111 after dosing.

Time to maximum concentration (Tmax) of AGA11190 minutes before administration, and 30 minutes, 1 hour, 6 hours, and 24 hours post administration.

Time to maximum concentration of AGA111 after dosing.

Area under the concentration time curve (AUC)90 minutes before administration, and 30 minutes, 1 hour, 6 hours, and 24 hours post administration.

Definite integral of the curve describing the variation of AGA111 in blood as a function of time.
