A Phase 1/2 interventional study of CV-MG01 and Placebo in Myasthenia Gravis, sponsored by CuraVac. Completed at 1 site in Belgium. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 64 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2019-01-28.
Sponsored by CuraVac · Phase 1/2, Interventional, and Treatment
Study CV-0002 is the first clinical trial administering CV-MG01 in humans. This clinical trial is a safety and proof-of-concept study (proof of mechanism of action) intended to assess the safety, tolerability and immunogenic response following 3 subcutaneous injections of CV-MG01 as a potential therapeutic vaccine / active immunotherapy in myasthenia gravis (MG) patients.
Part A of the trial has been designed as a human safety pharmacology and therapeutic exploratory, parallel group, randomised, placebo-controlled, single centre, Investigator and subject-blind study using adaptive dose and sample size approaches.
At the end of part A of the present study, all patients, including those receiving placebo, will be monitored in an open label, long-term safety follow-up part B of the study to assess the treatment effects over time.
324 studies on the registry are indexed under Myasthenia Gravis; 146 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 24 is below the median of 44 across 212 interventional studies indexed under Myasthenia Gravis.
