Overview

This is a prospective, Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled efficacy study to evaluate celiprolol in patients genetically confirmed as COL3A1-positive vEDS using a decentralized clinical trial design.

Description

This is a prospective, Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled efficacy study to evaluate celiprolol in patients genetically confirmed as COL3A1-positive vEDS using a decentralized clinical trial design.

The double-blind portion of this study is intended to end if statistical significance is reached at the interim analysis (accrual of 28 vEDS-related events requiring medical attention; estimated to take 24 months) or after accrual of 46 vEDS related clinical events requiring medical attention (estimated to take 40 months).

A total of approximately 150 patients who meet all the inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria will be enrolled and randomized 2:1 to receive either celiprolol or placebo, respectively.

Following the double-blind treatment period or occurrence of vEDS-related clinical event, patients have the option to participate in an open label extension period.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Willingness to obtain magnetic resonance angiogram (MRA) image at local imaging facility.
  2. A genetic test confirming the presence of a pathogenic COL3A1 variant (classified as likely pathogenic or pathogenic according to ACMG/AMP Guidelines.
  3. Patients must be ≥ 15 years of age at the time of randomization.
  4. Able and willing to discontinue use of β-blockers prior to randomization.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Lack of a COL3A1-positive test at screening (e.g., COL3A1 benign, likely benign, variant of unknown significance [VUS] or no variant) or presence of a COL3A1 variant but demonstration of a COL3A1 variant reported to be a haploinsufficiency variant.
  2. Arterial rupture or dissection, uterine rupture, and/or intestinal rupture within 6 months prior to Screening.
  3. Patients unable to discontinue β-blocker treatment prior to randomization.
  4. Unable or unwilling to complete the study procedures.
  5. Breastfeeding, pregnancy, or planned pregnancy during the trial.
  6. Any medical condition that in the opinion of the Investigator may pose a safety risk to the patient in this study, which may confound efficacy or safety assessment, or may interfere with study participation.
  7. Use of any prohibited medications

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
