| Comparison of Alemtuzumab and Rebif® Efficacy in Multiple Sclerosis, Study One |
| Link to the ClinicalTrials.gov record | Information obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov on August 30, 2010 |
| Title of trial/grant title | Comparison of Alemtuzumab and Rebif® Efficacy in Multiple Sclerosis, Study One |
| Current status of trial | Active, not recruiting |
| Sponsors and collaborators | Genzyme Bayer |
| Information provided by | Genzyme |
| ClinicalTrials.gov identifier | NCT00530348 |
| Purpose | The purpose of this study is to establish the efficacy and safety of alemtuzumab as a treatment for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (MS), in comparison with Rebif® (interferon beta-1a). The study will enroll patients who have not previously received treatment to suppress MS, except steroids. Patients will have monthly laboratory tests and comprehensive testing every 3 months. |
| Condition(s) | Multiple Sclerosis, Relapsing-Remitting |
| Intervention(s) | Biological: alemtuzumab Biological: interferon beta-1a (Rebif®) |
| Phase | Phase III |
| Study type and design | Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Single Blind (Outcomes Assessor), Primary Purpose: Treatment |
| Official title | A Phase 3 Randomized, Rater-Blinded Study Comparing Two Annual Cycles of Intravenous Alemtuzumab to Three-Times Weekly Subcutaneous Interferon Beta-1a (Rebif®) in Treatment-Naïve Patients With Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis |
| Further study details | Every patient will receive active treatment; there is no placebo. Patients who qualify will be randomly assigned to treatment with either alemtuzumab or Rebif® at a 2:1 ratio (ie, 2 given alemtuzumab for every 1 given Rebif®). Alemtuzumab will be administered in two annual cycles, once at the beginning of the study and again 1 year later. Rebif® will be self-injected 3 times per week for 2 years. All patients will be required to return to their study site every 3 months for neurologic assessment. In addition, safety-related laboratory tests will be performed at least monthly. Participation in this study will end 2 years after the start of treatment for each patient. Additionally, all patients who receive alemtuzumab will be followed in CAMMS03409 (NCTNCT 00930553) an extension study for safety and efficacy assessments. Patients who receive Rebif® and complete 2 years on study may be eligible to receive alemtuzumab in an extension study. |
| Primary outcome | Time to Sustained Accumulation of Disability (SAD) 2 years No Relapse Rate 2 years No |
| Secondary outcome | Proportion of patients who are relapse free at Year 2 2 years No Change from baseline in Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) 2 years No Acquisition of disability as measured by change from baseline in Multiple Sclerosis Functional Composite (MSFC) 2 years No Percent change from baseline in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-T2 hyperintense lesion volume at Year 2 2 years No |
