NCT01551316 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: PHASE1 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 19

Summary

In MediciNova's clinical development plan for MN-221, it was recognized that treatment of COPD exacerbations may necessitate more than one single i.v. infusion and that patients in this population may have more co-morbidities (and concomitant medications) than has been generally studied so far. Thus, the primary objective of this clinical study is to determine the repeated administration safety and tolerability of intravenous (i.v.) MN-221 compared to placebo with repeated administration over several days in moderate to severe COPD patients who may also have co-morbidities and concomitant medications (CM) common in this population. Secondary outcomes include pharmacokinetics (PK) and preliminary efficacy (FEV1).

This Phase 1b trial follows naturally upon a Phase 1b COPD trial completed last year (MN-221-CL-010) and is additionally well-supported by relevant animal safety data and human clinical trial information.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

MN-221

This drug is intravenously infused and delivers 1200 mcg to the patient in 1 hour duration. This dose is repeated over 4 days (Day 1 1200 mcg once; Day 2 1200 mcg twice; Day 3 1200 mcg twice; Day 4 1200 mcg once).

DRUG

Placebo

This intervention consists of a placebo intravenous infusion, one that contains no active medication. During the double-blind procedure, patients will be infused with placebo intravenously one time on Day 1, twice on Days 2 and 3, and one time on Day 4.
