Recruiting PHASE2 Refractory Angina

New treatment option for Refractory Angina

Official title Investigational Trial to Evaluate XC001 Delivered Via an Cardiac Catheter in Subjects With Chronic Angina.

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07048808

What this study is testing

What is XC001?

XC001 is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for refractory angina.

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
This is a two-part study, comprised of an initial open-label run-in phase (Part 1) in a subset of 3 subjects to provide first data regarding safety, and feasibility of the percutaneous endovascular catheter-facilitated intramyocardial delivery of XC001 in patients with RA due to obstructive CAD. Part 1 of the study is comprised of 3 subjects with RA (CCS class II-IV) who will receive 4×1011 viral particles (vp) XC001.
  • Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
  • Time commitment: about 12 months
  • You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
