A Study of Extended Use of Recombinant Human Parathyroid Hormone (rhPTH(1-84)) in Hypoparathyroidism

A Phase 4, Open-Label, Single-Center Clinical Study of Extended Use of rhPTH(1-84) in Hypoparathyroidism

Chronic hypoparathyroidism is a life-long and irreversible disease for which the chronic administration of rhPTH(1-84) is a potential treatment option. The group of participants in the AAAE0544 core study has been taking rhPTH(1-84) for the treatment of hypoparathyroidism for up to 11 years. This study is designed to extend this experience and gain knowledge about how safe and effective rhPTH(1-84) is in participants with hypoparathyroidism over a long-term duration.

High scores represent less fatigue and better quality of life. For 2 questions, item 7 'I have energy' and item 8 'I am able to do my usual activities', the item response from questionnaire will be used as item score and no conversion is needed. For the rest of 11 questions, item score was calculated as 4- item response. Fatigue total score was calculated as: Fatigue Total Score = [sum of (item scores)]*13/ (number of items answered).

The scale was designed to avoid reliance on aspects of conditions that are also common somatic symptoms of illness. Each item on the questionnaire was scored from 0-3, therefore, a person can score between 0 and 21 for either anxiety or depression. For each of the two sub-scores, if a participant obtain a score ranged from: 0 to 7, he is considered as "normal"; 8-10 = Borderline abnormal (borderline case) and 11-21 = Abnormal (case).
