Study summary

The intent of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of Immune Globulin Intravenous (Human), 10% Caprylate/Chromatography Purified (IGIV-C) in newly or previously diagnosed CIDP subjects. Eight courses of treatment with either placebo or IGIV-C will occur every 3 weeks. Neurological function will be measured by Inflammatory Neuropathy Cause and Treatment (INCAT) scores. Patients who deteriorate or show no improvement between day 16 and month 6 will receive the alternate study drug for an additional 6 months.

Read the detailed description

110 subjects, 55 per treatment group, with newly or previously diagnosed CIDP defined by INCAT neurophysiological diagnostic criteria will be enrolled into the trial. Patients will not be replaced if they discontinue prematurely.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(8)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Corticosteroids (steroids)

Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.

Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.

Immunosuppression

A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.

Read whether the line is about a condition or about medicines, and which medicines and doses it means.

HIV

The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.

Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.

NYHA class (heart failure)

The New York Heart Association’s four classes of how much heart failure limits physical activity.

I
No limits: ordinary activity causes no undue tiredness or breathlessness.
II
Slight limits: comfortable at rest, ordinary activity causes symptoms.
III
Marked limits: comfortable at rest, less than ordinary activity causes symptoms.
IV
Symptoms even at rest; any activity makes them worse.

Studies set their own limit — many outside heart failure leave out class III–IV, while heart failure studies may ask for a particular class. Check the class this study names.

Childbearing potential

Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).

Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.

Contraception

Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.

Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Comparison of the Responder Rates Between Two Treatment Groups in the Efficacy Period

    The primary efficacy objective was the comparison of IGIV-C and Placebo group Responder rates. An Efficacy Period Responder was defined as a subject with ≥ 1 point improvement in the adjusted Inflammatory Neuropathy Case And Treatment (INCAT) score, with the improvement maintained through the end of Week 24 in the Efficacy Period. Measurements are reported in INCAT scale of 0-5 in both lower and upper extremities, for a total score of 0 to 10. INCAT scores for arm disability: 0 = no upper limb problems; 5 = inability to use either arm for any purposeful movement. INCAT scores for leg disability: 0= walking not affected; 5 = restricted to wheelchair, unable to stand and walk a few steps with help

    Time frame: 6 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. Mean Change in the Amplitude (Millivolts) in the Most Severely Affected Motor Nerve During the Efficacy Period

    Mean changes in amplitude \[mV\] measured at most proximal site in the most severely affected motor nerve from baseline to endpoint during the Efficacy Period (Intent to treat population)

    Time frame: 6 months

  2. Mean Change in Grip Strength During the Efficacy Period

    Time frame: 6 months

  3. Time to Relapse for Subjects Who Were IGIV-C Responders or IGIV-C Rescue Successes, During the Randomized Withdrawal Period

    Time frame: 6 months

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Mar 23, 2016, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
