Long-Term Extension of Previous rAvPAL-PEG Protocols in Subjects With PKU (PAL-003)

September 15, 2021 updated by: BioMarin Pharmaceutical

Long-term Extension of a Phase 2, Open-Label Dose-Finding Study to Evaluate the Safety, Efficacy, and Tolerability of Multiple Subcutaneous Doses of rAvPAL-PEG in Subjects With PKU

This study is an extension of previous rAvPAL-PEG studies. Administration of rAvPAL-PEG will be continued to assess whether long-term dosing of rAvPAL-PEG is safe and can maintain reduced blood Phe concentrations in PKU subjects.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

PAL-003 is designed to evaluate long-term treatment of subjects who are continuing to take rAvPAL-PEG. Subjects'previous rAvPAL-PEG dosing will continue in PAL-003. In PAL-003, each subject's dose will be adjusted as needed to attain or maintain blood Phe concentrations of 60-600 µmol/L. rAvPAL-PEG dose will be based on either a subject's weight or will be a fixed dose (subjects who have maintained blood Phe levels to 60-600 µmol/L for at least 2 consecutive weeks and who have maintained a stable rAvPAL-PEG dose for at least 2 consecutive weeks). Doses will be evaluated on an individual basis.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

16 years to 55 years (ADULT, CHILD)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Must have completed participation in previous rAvPAL-PEG studies.
  • Willing and able to provide written, signed informed consent, or, in the case of participants under the age of 18, provide written assent (if required) and written informed consent by a parent or legal guardian, after the nature of the study has been explained, and prior to any research-related procedures.
  • Willing and able to comply with all study procedures.
  • Females of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test at Screening and be willing to have additional pregnancy tests during the study. Females considered not of childbearing potential include those who have been in menopause at least 2 years, or had tubal ligation at least 1 year prior to Screening, or who have had total hysterectomy.
  • Sexually active subjects must be willing to use an acceptable method of contraception while participating in the study.
  • Maintained a stable diet.
  • In generally good health as evidenced by physical examination, clinical laboratory evaluations (hematology, chemistry, and urinalysis), and electrocardiogram (ECG) at Screening.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Use of any investigational product (with the exception of rAvPAL-PEG) or investigational medical device within 30 days prior to Screening, or requirement for any investigational agent prior to completion of all scheduled study assessments.
  • Use of any medication that is intended to treat PKU within 14 days prior to the administration of study drug.
  • Use or planned use of any injectable drugs containing PEG (other than rAvPAL-PEG), including Depo-Provera during study participation.
  • A prior reaction that included systemic symptoms (eg, generalized hives, respiratory or gastrointestinal problems, hypotension, angioedema, anaphylaxis) to rAvPAL-PEG or a PEG-containing product.
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding at Screening or planning to become pregnant (self or partner) or to breastfeed at any time during the study.Concurrent disease or condition that would interfere with study participation or safety (eg, history or presence of clinically significant cardiovascular, pulmonary, hepatic, renal, hematologic, gastrointestinal, endocrine, immunologic, dermatologic, neurological, oncologic, or psychiatric disease).
  • Any condition that, in the view of the PI, places the subject at high risk of poor treatment compliance or of not completing the study.
  • Known hypersensitivity to rAvPAL-PEG or its excipients, including hypersensitivity reactions that necessitated early termination from previous rAvPAL-PEG studies.
  • Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) concentration > 2 times the upper limit of normal.
  • Creatinine > 1.5 times the upper limit of normal.
