Safety Study of P28GST Treatment in Crohn's Disease Patients

This multicenter phase 2 clinical trial is designed to assess safety of P28GST (protein 28 Kd glutathion S Transferrase), aiming to control inflammation in moderate Crohn's Disease (CD), before or after intestinal resection surgery. P28GST is a parasite enzyme molecule from Schistosoma with potent immunogenic and anti-oxidant properties. Based on experimental evidence of its anti-inflammatory properties, the investigators hypothesized that administration of P28GST could protect against recurrence after intestinal resection surgery in CD.

About this study

To carry out this study, 24 moderate CD patients will be enrolled in a safety phase 2a study. CD patients will be included after intestinal resection surgery or in moderate Crohn's Disease (CD). Drug therapy will consisted in 3 injections of 100 µg of P28GST within 3 months (one injection per month). The main objective of this study is to follow-up monthly rate and seriousness of adverse events during one year. Secondary objectives are to control immunologic and inflammatory blood and tissue markers, appearance or not of a clinical recurrence assessed by CDAI (Crohn Disease Activity Index).
