Recruiting PHASE1, PHASE2 Shock, Cardiogenic

New treatment option for Shock, Cardiogenic

Official title Invobenitug Also Known as Procizumab (PCZ; AK1967) in Critical Cardiovascular Care

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06832722

What this study is testing

What is AK1967 (Invobenitug also known as Procizumab)?

AK1967 (Invobenitug also known as Procizumab) is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for shock, cardiogenic.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
The objective of this Phase 1b/2a trial is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and exploratory efficacy of invobenitug (also known as procizumab), a monoclonal antibody under development for the treatment of cardiogenic shock (CS). CS is a life-threatening hypoperfusion of vital organs that frequently results in death.
  • Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works

A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.

Who can take part

Ages 18 to 80

You may be able to join if

  • Signed informed consent.
  • Diagnosis of CS based on the following entry criteria:
  • Need for ongoing vasopressors and/or inotropes to maintain a MAP ≥ 65 mmHg or SBP ≥ 90 mmHg
  • Lactate ≥ 2.0 mmol/L
  • High cDPP3 concentration ≥ 30 ng/mL

You likely can't join if

  • Patients who will be receiving vasopressors and/or inotropes for more than 16 hours prior to receiving the IMP.
  • Patients being longer than 24 hours in the ICU at the time of randomization.
  • Patients below the age of 18 or above 80 years.
  • Patients receiving Ang II and/or levosimendan.
  • Patients with known allergies or hypersensitivity to the IMP or its excipients or any related medication.
  • Stroke or transient ischemic attack within the last 3 months.
