Status Updates
After a long period, where almost no travel was possible, we as study sponsor had our first post-COVID, in-person, visit at Dr. Brian Keller’s site at the Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio. Team members from Zambon were able to join the CRA for a re-training visit. A special thank you to Dr. Keller and team for making accommodations that allowed us to have a productive meeting while maintaining proper social distancing.
Investigator Meetings for Study Protocol Version 4
You probably do already know that a new version of the study protocol has recently been released. We do hope, that the changes will make more patients eligible for the study. There will be two Investigator Meetings for the US and one for the EU at the end of March for introducing the new protocol. In addition, we will share information on study status, best practice and more. Stay tuned for information on days and times and the agenda!
Frequently Asked Questions
We have received questions regarding inclusion/exclusion from multiple sites and want to provide clarity:
Inclusion #5 states: Patients should be on a maintenance regimen of immunosuppressive agents including tacrolimus, a second agent such as but not limited to MMF or azathioprine, and a systemic corticosteroid such as prednisone as third agent. The regimen must be stable within 4 weeks prior to randomization with respect to the therapeutic agents.
Our medical monitor has clarified that the agent must be stable, not the dose.
Per Exclusion #3, the DSA results do not need to be zero and detectable levels are acceptable, if patients are judged clinically stable (by investigator).
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to reach out, as it is likely that someone else has the same question.
