Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of SAB-301 in Healthy Adults
United States38 participantsStarted 2016-05-28
Plain-language summary
Background:
Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) is a newly discovered contagious and sometimes fatal respiratory virus. People often get MERS through close contact with an infected person. Scientists are worried that MERS may spread and cause more infections. There are no vaccines or treatments for MERS right now. Researchers think a new therapy called SAB-301 may be able to help. Antibodies are proteins the body makes to attack viruses. SAB-301 is made of antibodies made in cows to fight MERS. The antibodies are collected from plasma, the liquid part of cow blood.
Objective:
To evaluate the safety and tolerability of SAB-301 in healthy adults.
Eligibility:
Healthy people ages 18 60 who:
Do not have chronic medical problems
Do not take any medications (exceptions are acetaminophen, ibuprofen, vitamins, seasonal allergy meds and oral contraception)
Do not have allergies to beef products
Agree to use two forms of contraception while on study (both men and women)
Design:
Participants will be screened with:
Medical history
Physical examination
Blood and urine tests
Participants will have a return visit.
They will have a physical exam and blood tests.
They will be randomly assigned to receive either SAB-301 or a placebo which is given by infusion
through an arm vein over 1 3 hours.
They will be monitored at the clinic for 6 hours after the infusion. They will have additional blood draws.
Participants will have 2-hour visits 1, 3, 7, 21, 42, and 90 days after the infusion. At each visit they will be evaluated and have blood and urine tests.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
