Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This phase 1 study aims to assess the safety and tolerability of monoclonal antibody TB31F administered intravenously or subcutaneously at escalating dose levels in healthy, malaria naïve, adults. This study will also evaluate the pharmacokinetics of TB31F and the functional activity of mAb TB31F in the standard membrane feeding assay.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This phase 1 study aims to assess the safety and tolerability of monoclonal antibody (mAb) TB31F administered intravenously or subcutaneously in healthy, malaria naïve, adults at the Radboud University Medical Center (Radboudumc). Five groups will receive a single dose of mAb TB31F. Group 1 (n=5) will receive 0.1 mg/kg TB31F, Group 2 (n=5) will receive 1 mg/kg TB31F, group 3 (n=5) will receive 3 mg/kg TB31F, and group 4 (n=5) will receive 10 mg/kg mAb TB31F intravenously. Group 5 will receive 100mg TB31F subcutaneously. Twenty-five (n=25) subjects will be enrolled, as well as 1 reserve subject per group. Safety follow-up will be done at following times: baseline, end of infusion (EOI), 1, 3, 6 and 24 hours and 2, 7, 14, 21, 28, 56 and 84 days after administration. Extra follow-up visits at 4 and 10 days after administration for collection of serum/plasma for pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic measurements will be performed in group 5.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Group 1 - 0.1mg/kg TB31F

0.1 mg/kg of monoclonal antibody TB31F is administered intravenously to 5 subjects. Subjects will be observed for the occurrence of any adverse events. There will be a minimum of 48 hours between TB31F administration to each subsequent volunteer. Subjects will be followed-up for 84 days. Escalation to the next higher dosage group will be dependent upon no safety signals arising.

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

Monoclonal antibody

Group 2 - 1mg/kg TB31F

1 mg/kg of monoclonal antibody TB31F is administered intravenously to 5 subjects. TB31F administration will be staggered such that the first subject will be administered mAb TB31F and observed for the occurrence of any adverse events. The second subject will not receive their dose of TB31F sooner than 2 days after the first subject has received TB31F. The remaining three subjects will receive their TB31F dose no sooner than 2 days after the second subject has been administered TB31F, with at least a one hour interval in administration of TB31F between each subject. Subjects will be followed-up for 84 days. Escalation to the next higher dosage group will be dependent upon no safety signals arising.

Group 3 - 3mg/kg TB31F

3 mg/kg of monoclonal antibody TB31F is administered intravenously to 5 subjects. TB31F administration will be staggered such that the first subject will be administered mAb TB31F and observed for the occurrence of any adverse events. The second subject will not receive their dose of TB31F sooner than 2 days after the first subject has received TB31F. The remaining three subjects will receive their TB31F dose no sooner than 2 days after the second subject has been administered TB31F, with at least a one hour interval in administration of TB31F between each subject. Subjects will be followed-up for 84 days. Escalation to the next higher dosage group will be dependent upon no safety signals arising.

Group 4 - 10mg/kg TB31F

10 mg/kg of monoclonal antibody TB31F is administered intravenously to 5 subjects. TB31F administration will be staggered such that the first subject will be administered mAb TB31F and observed for the occurrence of any adverse events. The second subject will not receive their dose of TB31F sooner than 2 days after the first subject has received TB31F. The remaining three subjects will receive their TB31F dose no sooner than 2 days after the second subject has been administered TB31F, with at least a one hour interval in administration of TB31F between each subject. Subjects will be followed-up for 84 days.

Group 5 - 100mg TB31F

100mg of monoclonal antibody TB31F is administered subcutaneously to 5 subjects. TB31F administration will be staggered such that the first subject will be administered mAb TB31F and observed for the occurrence of any adverse events. The second subject will not receive their dose of TB31F sooner than 2 days after the first subject has received TB31F. The remaining three subjects will receive their TB31F dose no sooner than 2 days after the second subject has been administered TB31F, with at least a one hour interval in administration of TB31F between each subject. Subjects will be followed-up for 84 days.
