Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4.

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

2 years to 10 years (Child)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Clinical diagnosis of ACH with genetic confirmation
  2. Age between 2 to 10 years old (inclusive) at Screening Visit
  3. Prepubertal (Stage 1 breasts for girls or testicular volume < 4ml for boys) at Screening Visit
  4. Able to stand without assistance
  5. Caregiver willing and able to administer subcutaneous injections of study drug

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Clinically significant findings at Screening that:

    • are expected to require surgical intervention during participation in the trial or
    • are musculoskeletal in nature, such as Salter-Harris fractures and severe hip pain or
    • otherwise are considered by investigator or Medical Monitor/Medical Expert to make a participant unfit to receive study drug or undergo trial related procedures
  2. Have received treatment (>3 months) of human growth hormone (hGH) or other medications known to affect stature or body proportionality at any time
  3. Have received any dose of medications intended to affect stature or body proportionality within the previous 6 months of Screening Visit
  4. Have received any study drug or device intended to affect stature or body proportionality at any time
  5. History or presence of injury or disease of the growth plate(s), other than Achondroplasia, that affects growth potential of long bones

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Annualized Height Velocity (cm/Year) After 52 Weeks of Double-blind Treatment
Time Frame: 52 weeks
The primary efficacy analysis compared the difference in the primary efficacy endpoint between the TransCon CNP treatment group and the pooled placebo group using an ANCOVA model with the annualized height velocity (AHV) at Week 52 as the response variable, treatment (dose groups and placebo) and sex as factors, baseline age and baseline height SDS as the covariates, and based on the Full Analysis Set.
