Study of RBD4059 and acetylsalicylic acid in patients with stable coronary artery disease: evaluation of safety and drug behavior in the body

1 1

What is this study about?

This clinical trial focuses on patients with Stable Coronary Artery Disease, a condition where the arteries that supply blood to the heart have become narrowed or blocked. The study will test a new medication called RBD4059, which is given as an injection under the skin. Participants in the study will continue taking their regular dose of acetylsalicylic acid (75 mg daily), commonly known as aspirin, which they have been using for their heart condition.

The main purpose of this research is to evaluate how safe RBD4059 is when given as multiple doses to patients with stable heart disease who are already taking low-dose aspirin. During the study, some participants will receive the actual medication while others will receive a placebo through injections under the skin. The treatment period will last for 12 months.

The study will involve regular check-ups to monitor participants’ health, including blood tests, physical examinations, and heart measurements using ECG (a test that records the heart’s electrical activity). The researchers will also measure how the body processes the medication and how it affects certain blood components related to clotting. Neither the participants nor their doctors will know who is receiving the actual medication or the placebo during the study.

1 Initial evaluation and medication verification

Your eligibility for the study will be confirmed based on age (50-75 years) and diagnosis of stable coronary artery disease

Your current use of aspirin 75 mg will be verified (must be taking it for at least 3 months)

Your current medications will be reviewed (must be stable for at least 30 days)

2 Treatment assignment

You will be randomly assigned to receive either RBD4059 injections or a placebo (inactive substance)

The placebo contains vitamin B2 for coloring purposes

You will continue taking your daily aspirin 75 mg tablet throughout the study

3 Treatment administration

You will receive subcutaneous injections (under the skin) of either RBD4059 or placebo

The treatment period will continue through multiple doses

Your regular medications, including aspirin 75 mg, should be maintained during this period

4 Monitoring and assessments

Regular health checks will include blood tests, vital signs, physical examinations, and heart recordings (ECG)

Blood samples will be taken to measure drug levels and assess its effects

Your blood clotting will be monitored through specific tests

You will be checked for any immune system responses to the study medication

5 Study completion

The study is expected to run until December 31, 2025

Final assessments will be conducted to evaluate your health status

Your participation will end after completing all required visits and assessments

Trial locations

Investigated drugs:

RBD4059 is an investigational medication being tested in patients with stable coronary artery disease. It is given as multiple injections under the skin (subcutaneously) to patients who are already taking low-dose aspirin. The medication is being studied to understand how safe it is and how it works in the body.

Aspirin is a commonly used medication that helps prevent blood clots. In this trial, participants take low-dose aspirin as part of their regular treatment for coronary artery disease. It works by making blood platelets less sticky, which reduces the risk of blood clots forming in the arteries of the heart.

Investigated diseases:

Coronary artery disease

Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) – A condition where the major blood vessels that supply the heart become damaged or diseased. It develops when fatty deposits, cholesterol, and other substances build up in the walls of coronary arteries, forming plaques. These deposits cause the arteries to narrow over time, reducing blood flow to the heart muscle. The disease typically develops over decades, and symptoms may not be noticeable until significant narrowing of the arteries has occurred. When the condition stabilizes with consistent symptoms and does not show rapid progression, it is referred to as stable CAD.
