NCT02051062

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to verify the pediatric dosing recommendations for BAT product in pediatric patients that are treated with BAT product due to a confirmed or suspected case of botulism. A minimum of one serum sample should be collected but whenever feasible additional serum samples (up to three per enrolled participant) may be collected from the participant or obtained from surplus standard of care samples, if available, within 32 hours after BAT product administration. Safety of the BAT product will also be evaluated. Emergent will follow-up with the physician by telephone after 30 days post-BAT product administration to collect AEs, SAEs, and unanticipated events.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Margin of PK Equivalence for 90% Survival

    Margin of PK equivalence (MOE) for 90% survival relative to the healthy adult PK model, calculated to verify the appropriateness of administered pediatric dose. All collected samples of sufficient volume will be used provided both the BAT dosing time and sample collection time are known, even if outside the 32 hour collection window.

    ideally up to 32 hours post-BAT product administration

Secondary Outcomes (8)

  • Area Under Concentration Curve From Time 0 to Last Measurable Concentration [AUC0-t]

    ideally up to 32 hours post-BAT product administration

  • Area Under Concentration Curve From Time 0 to Infinity [AUC0-inf]

    ideally up to 32 hours post-BAT product administration

  • Between Subject Variability [BSV]

    ideally up to 32 hours post-BAT product administration

  • Maximum Serum Serotype A Concentration [Cmax]

    ideally up to 32 hours post-BAT product administration

  • Systemic Clearance [CL]

    ideally up to 32 hours post-BAT product administration

  • +3 more secondary outcomes

Other Outcomes (3)

  • Safety: AEs

    Day 1 to Day 30

  • Safety: SAEs

    Day 1 to Day 30

  • Safety: AESI

    Day 1 to Day 30

Eligibility Criteria

Age1 Day - 11 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17)

You may qualify if:

  • Legally authorized representative is able and willing to voluntarily provide informed consent and patients to provide assent, if applicable.
  • Pediatric participants (age groups: birth to \<two years, two to \<six years, and six to \<12 years).
  • Treatment with BAT product (initial dose only).
  • Blood sample can be collected (or standard of care sample scavenged) within 32 hours of completion of BAT product infusion.

You may not qualify if:

  • If the 5 mL blood sample volume is deemed, at the discretion of the investigator, to be unsafe based on patient weight or condition of health.
  • History of treatment with BabyBIG or other botulism antitoxin within the past 90 days.
