Last updated: February 6, 2025
Sponsor: Implicit Bioscience
Overall Status: Active - Recruiting

Phase

1/2

Condition

Cardiac Ischemia

Coronary Artery Disease

Angina

Treatment

Placebo, 150 mL intravenously, once

Atibuclimab (IC14), 20 mg/kg intravenously, once

Clinical Study ID

NCT06678074
STEMI01
  • Ages > 18
  • All Genders

Study Summary

Adults who have had an ST-elevation myocardial infarction and were treated with stent placement will receive an intravenous infusion of a monoclonal antibody in order to prevent further heart muscle damage. The goal is to learn if this treatment improves some measures of heart function and inflammation. The study treatment patients will be compared to patients who receive placebo (inactive treatment).

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Acute myocardial infarction with ST elevation at the J-point in two contiguous leadsas determined by ECG.

  2. TIMI grade 0 (no flow) or grade 1 (penetration without perfusion) of the culpritartery on initial coronary angiogram

  3. Symptom onset prior to PCI of ≤12 hours

  4. Planned to receive the local standard of care for treatment of their STEMI andfollow up which must include percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)

  5. Ability to infuse study drug within 12 hours of PCI

  6. Age ≥18 years, willing and able to provide written informed consent and to complywith the protocol (i.e., reporting of symptoms)

  7. Capable of completing study visits

  8. Females participating in the study must meet one of the following criteria:

  9. Postmenopausal (postmenopausal females must have no menstrual bleeding for atleast 1 year);

  10. Surgically sterilized (e.g., hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or tuballigation) for at least 6 months; or

  11. If not postmenopausal, agree to use a double method of contraception, one ofwhich is a barrier method (e.g., intrauterine device plus condom, spermicidalgel plus condom) until 30 days after the treatment

  12. Males who have not had a vasectomy must use appropriate contraception methods (barrier or abstinence) until 30 days after treatment

Exclusion

Exclusion Criteria:

An individual fulfilling any of the following criteria is to be excluded from enrollment in the study:

  1. Killip Classification for Heart Failure Class III (acute pulmonary edema) or IV (cardiogenic shock)

  2. Severe aortic or mitral valve disease

  3. Failure to reperfuse, vascular dissection, cardiac perforation, cardiac arrest,requirement for mechanical circulatory support, or acute respiratory failurerequiring ventilatory support

  4. Major hemodynamic instability or uncontrolled ventricular arrhythmias

  5. Planned or conducted thrombolytic therapy for treatment of this STEMI event

  6. Planned or conducted coronary artery bypass graft

  7. Previous major vascular intervention within the last 4 weeks

  8. Major surgery within the last 6 weeks

  9. Evidence of an active gastrointestinal or urogenital bleeding

  10. Recent (<14 days) use of immunosuppressive or anti-inflammatory drugs (includingoral corticosteroids at a prednisone equivalent dose of ≥0.5 mg/kg/day but notincluding inhaled or low-dose oral corticosteroids, non-steroidal anti-inflammatorydrugs, or colchicine).

  11. Chronic inflammatory disorder (i.e., rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupuserythematosus).

  12. Active infection (of any type), including chronic/recurrent infectious disease (including HBV, HCV, and HIV/AIDS), but excluding HCV+ with undetectable plasma RNA.

  13. Neutropenia (<1,500/mm3 or <1,000/mm3 in Black/African American patients).

  14. Active malignancy, excluding carcinoma in situ [any location] or localizednon-melanoma skin cancer

  15. Participation in any study using an investigational drug or device within 30 days orwithin 5 half-lives of the investigational drug (whichever is longer) of entry intothis study.

  16. Life expectancy of less than 1 year due to non-cardiac pathology

  17. History of allergic reaction to atibuclimab (IC14), any monoclonal antibody, or anyother component used in the study (including contrast media)

  18. Body weight >300 pounds (weight limit of the PET/CT table)

  19. Known severe renal (creatinine clearance <30 mL/min) or hepatic insufficiency aswell as alanine transaminase (ALT) elevation ≥ 3x upper limit of normal; isolatedAST-elevation is not considered an exclusion criterion from study participation

  20. Any clinically significant abnormality identified at the time of Screening that inthe judgment of the Investigator, or any sub-Investigator would preclude safecompletion of the study

Study Design

Study Description

Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled pilot study to evaluate the safety, exploratory efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of IC14 (atibuclimab) administered via a single IV infusion to patients with STEMI treated with percutaneous intervention. In additional to optional CCR2+ myocardial imaging, biomarkers, cardiac function and patient-reported outcome measures will be reported.
