Rasburicase for Hyperuricemia

March 27, 2009 updated by: Sanofi

Open-Label, Multi-Center Study of SR29142 as Uricolytic Therapy/Prophylaxis for Hyperuricemia in Pediatric Patients With Newly Diagnosed Hematological Malignancies at High Risk for Tumor Lysis Syndrome

Primary: To estimate efficacy of SR29142 to the pediatric patients with newly diagnosed hematological malignancies at high risk for Tumor Lysis Syndrome, by evaluation of plasma uric acid concentration.

Secondary: To investigate the safety in this population and anti-SR29142 antibodies, anti-SCP antibodies, and pharmacokinetic parameters.

  • Uric acid > 7.5 mg/dL in patients ≥ 13 years old- Uric acid > 6.5mg/dL in patients <13 years old

Or, patient with newly diagnosed hematological malignancies presenting with high tumor burden defined:

  • Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, Stage IV regardless of uric acid level,
  • Non-Hodgkin's Lymphomas stage III regardless of uric acid level with one of the following:

    • At least one lymph node or mass >5 cm in diameter
    • LDH ≥ 3 x ULN (IU/L): Judging according to modified Murphy's classification
  • Acute leukemia with white blood cell count (WBC) ≥ 50,000/mm3 or LDH ≥ 3 x ULN (IU/L) regardless of uric acid level. etc.

Exclusion Criteria:

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Patients with a plasma uric acid level decreased to the endpoint by 48 hr after the start of first drug infusion and lasting until 24 hr after the start of final (Day 5) drug infusion.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Safety will be assessed on clinical observation, laboratory test, vital sign (blood pressure, pulse rate and body temperature), and the occurrence of adverse events.
G6PD activity will be measured in only patients who demonstrate hemolysis.
Anti-SR29142 antibody and Anti-SCP antibody will be measured.
PK parameters.
