NATRON Trial Summary

This trial is testing a new drug, benralizumab, to see if it is effective and safe for patients with hypereosinophilic syndrome.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with Hypereosinophilic Syndrome (HES) who are 12 years or older, have a stable HES treatment regimen, and show signs of HES worsening. They must not have certain gene mutations or life-threatening events related to HES in the past 12 weeks. Women able to bear children must agree to use effective birth control.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests Benralizumab's effectiveness and safety against a placebo over 24 weeks in addition to standard HES therapy. Participants will be randomly assigned to either receive Benralizumab or a placebo without knowing which one they're getting until after the primary analysis phase.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed here, common ones for similar treatments include injection site reactions, headache, fatigue, fever, and potential allergic reactions. The exact side effects will be monitored throughout the trial.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Could you provide the total number of research sites for this project?

"Currently, this study is enrolling patients at 10 sites. These locations are in Cleveland, Columbus and Atlanta as well as other places. If you want to reduce the amount of travel required, please choose the site that is closest to your home."

Answered by AI

What is the governmental approval status of Benralizumab?

"Benralizumab has undergone Phase 3 clinical trials, meaning that there is some efficacy data and multiple rounds of safety data. This makes it a safe medication with few risks."

Answered by AI

Is this the first clinical test of its type?

"Since 2014, Benralizumab has been the focus of various clinical studies. The first trial was conducted in 2014 by AstraZeneca and only involved 20 patients. However, this initial study led to Phase 2 & 3 drug approval for Benralizumab. Now, there are a total of 20 active trials being performed in 352 cities and 42 countries worldwide."

Answered by AI

What is the precedent for Benralizumab's clinical usage?

"As of now, there are 20 ongoing clinical trials researching Benralizumab. 10 of these trials are in Phase 3. Most of the clinical trials for Benralizumab are located in Bethesda, Maryland; however, there are 1481 locations conducting studies on this medication."

Answered by AI

Does this medical study allow patients that are over 25 years old to enroll?

"This particular trial is only open to people between the ages of 12 and 130. There are a total of 388 studies for children under 18 and 1051 studies for senior citizens above 65."
