Study information

Study designNon randomised controlled trial
Primary study designInterventional
Secondary study designNon randomised controlled trial
Study setting(s)Not specified
Study typeTreatment
Scientific title
Study acronymAMP 02-01
Study objectivesA peptide representing the first eleven residues of hLF (hLF1-11) was shown to be effective in killing a variety of bacteria in vivo. The objective is to develop hLF1-11 as an effective and safe antibacterial and antifungal for the treatment of infections that develop during the neutropenia resulting from myeloablative therapy to prepare for a haematopoietic stem cell transplant.
Ethics approval(s)Not provided at time of registration
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedNeutropenic stem cell transplantation patients
InterventionStudy medication hLF1-11 of 5 mg will be given by intravenous administration. hLF 1-11 will be dissolved in sterile 0.9 % NaCl to a volume of 20 ml to be administered at 1 ml/min over 20 mins.
Intervention typeDrug
Pharmaceutical study type(s)
PhaseNot Specified
Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s)Lactoferrin
Primary outcome measureSafety and tolerability as measured by adverse events, local tolerability, clinical chemistry, haematology, and vital signs.
Secondary outcome measuresTo evaluate formation of antibodies, anti-hLF 1-11 enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) will be measured during and after the study up to two weeks post dosage administration.
Overall study start date06/03/2006
Completion date31/05/2006
