A Phase II Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of GV1001 in Patients With BPH

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH)
Interventions
Other: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT02855892
Lead Sponsor
GemVax & Kael
Brief Summary

This clinical trial is designed as a randomized, placebo-controlled, single-blind, parallel design, multi-center, phase 2 clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of GV1001 in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia. Eligible subjects are randomized into a group out of the three study groups and a placebo group after four weeks of placebo run-in period. Placebo run-in period is concurrently proceeded as a wash-out period for previous treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia, and a placebo is administered intradermally twice with two-week interval during this period. After that, the randomized subjects receive a study drug and a placebo intradermally seven times with two-week interval by visiting at Week 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12. After the treatment period, the subjects additionally visit at Week 13 and 16, and the efficacy is evaluated at Week 4, 8, 12, 13, and 16, and the safety is evaluated over the 16-week period.

Detailed Description

Patients will be randomized equally between the four arms.

1. Control group (placebo, two-week interval): 38 subjects

2. Study group 1 (GV1001 0.4 mg, intradermal administration, two-week interval): 38 subjects

3. Study group 2 (GV1001 0.56 mg, intradermal administration, two-week interval): 38 subjects

4. Study group 3 (GV1001 0.56 mg, intradermal administration, four-week interval): 38 subjects

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Evaluation of doses of GV1001 by comparing the level of change in IPSS scores in three study groups to a control group.at Week 0, 4, 8, 12, 13, and 16

IPSS questionnaire: 7-item questionnaire that measures urinary symptoms, but with an additional, independent eighth question on quality of life. It measures the level of urinary symptoms (including incomplete emptying, frequency, intermittency, urgency, weak stream, straining, and nocturia) reported as the total IPSS score. The first 7 items has a 6-point response scale (0=none/never to 5=almost always/5 or more times) with a total score that can range from 0-35: mild (0-7), moderate (8-19), or severe (20-35). The last item assesses quality of life reported as a Quality of Life assessment index.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in volume of prostate gland (TRUS) compared to the baselineat screening and Week 16

The amount of change from Transrectal Ultrasonography(TRUS) compared to the baseline

Change in International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) compared to the baselineat Week 0, 4, 8, 12, 13, and 16

IIEF questionnaire: 15-item, 5 domain scale collected by subject interview, relating to the subjects' experience of erectile function (and other sexual parameters) over the previous 4 weeks.

Change in maximum flow rate (Qmax) compared to the baselineat Week 0, 4, 8, 12, 13, and 16

The amount of change from Maximum(peak) Urinary Flow Rate compared to the baseline

Change in prostate-specific antigen (PSA) compared to the baselineat Week 0, 13, and 16

The amount of change from Prostate-specific Antigen (PSA) compared to the baseline

Change in residual urine volume compared to the baselineat Week 0, 4, 8, 12, 13, and 16

The amount of change from Residual Urine Volume compared to the baseline

Change in hormones (testosterone, DHT) compared to the baselineat Week 0, 4, 8, 12, 13, and 16

The amount of change from Hormones (Testosterone, DHT) compared to the baseline
