Clinical Trial Summary

Chronic heart failure (CHF) is one of the major causes of death in Western societies. Evidence has accumulated that functionally active autoantibodies directed against the beta1 adrenergic receptor (β1 AAb) are of pathophysiological relevance for the development and progression of cardiomyopathy and associated CHF. BC 007 is under development for targeted neutralisation of autoantibodies directed against G protein coupled receptors, including β1 AAb. This is an open label, three-centre, randomised phase 2a study in participants with chronic HFrEF. The study will evaluate whether BC 007 causes a persistent neutralisation of the β1 AAb demonstrated by a negative β1 AAb status up to 12 months. Participants will be randomised in a 2:1 ratio to the treatment arm (BC 007) or the control arm (untreated). Treatment is repeated once up to month 11 if the participant's β1 AAb were not neutralised after 1st dosing on day 1 or reoccur.


Clinical Trial Description

Primary objective is: - To compare the efficacy of an intravenous (i.v.) infusion of BC 007 with an untreated control arm in removal of β1 AAb at month 12 in participants with chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) Secondary objectives are: - To evaluate the time to recurrence of β1 AAb after a single i.v. infusion of BC 007 - To evaluate the response rate and time to recurrence of β1 AAb after a repeated single i.v. infusion of BC 007 after the first recurrence of β1 AAb - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of BC 007 after a single and a repeated single i.v. infusion - To determine the pharmacokinetic (PK) plasma and urine profiles of BC 007 - To investigate the PK plasma profiles of BC 007 metabolites - To investigate the β aminoisobutyric acid (β-AIBA) plasma and urine, and uric acid serum and urine concentration as a marker for BC 007 degradation - To investigate the spontaneous conversion of β1 AAb status from positive to negative in untreated participants (control arm) Exploratory objective is: - To evaluate the change of the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) after a single and a repeated single i.v. infusion ;
