Trial Review

Did you know?

The ANZCTR now automatically displays published trial results and simplifies the addition of trial documents such as unpublished protocols and statistical analysis plans.

These enhancements will offer a more comprehensive view of trials, regardless of whether their results are positive, negative, or inconclusive.

The safety and scientific validity of this study is the responsibility of the study sponsor and investigators. Listing a study does not mean it has been endorsed by the ANZCTR. Before participating in a study, talk to your health care provider and refer to this information for consumers

Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
The study will consist of 3 parts (Parts A, B and C). Subjects can participate in only 1 part and in only 1 dose group; in each part, subjects will be randomly assigned to either CSL324 or placebo. In Parts A and B a single infusion of either CSL324 or placebo will be administered; dose escalation may occur in these parts. There may be up to 6 subjects per dose in Parts A and B. In Part C, 10 subjects will receive 3 infusions at 21 day intervals of either CSL324 or placebo (according to their randomisation and at the same dose per infusion).

Intervention 1: Single (Parts A and B) or repeat (Part C) dose(s) of anti-human granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) receptor monoclonal antibody (CSL324) will be administered intravenously. The dose and infusion volume will be based upon the subject's body weight and the allowable drug concentration. Dose escalation requires Safety Review Committee review (of available blinded safety, tolerability, PK and selected PD data) and approval.

In addition to CSL324 or placebo, subjects may also receive other interventions (G-CSF and/or Cantharidin) as described below.

Intervention 2: Filgrastim (Registered Trademark: Neupogen), a recombinant form of human G-CSF, will be administered subcutaneously once a day, at approximately the same time each day on up to 6 consecutive days (from 3 days before and/or up to 3 days after CSL324 or placebo infusion depending upon the CSL324 or placebo dose amount) at a dose based upon the subject's body weight (5 microgram/kg; all Part B subjects only)

Intervention 3: Cantharidin (Registered Trademark: Cantharone), will be applied topically to the skin (on the arm), to induce a blister (all Parts A and B subjects only). Cantharidin (25 microlitres at 0.1 % weight/volume) will be administered once a day, on 2 separate days, 2 or 3 days apart (from 1 day before and up to 2 days after CSL324 or placebo infusion depending upon the CSL324 or placebo dose amount).
