Current Clinical Trials Being Conducted in the US

Clinical trials are crucial to the development of safe and effective treatment for our patients. Our goal is to expand our reach in the rare disease space, and further our understanding of how we can improve our products, to better improve our patients’ quality of life. Below is our list of studies currently recruiting in the US.

HYPERAMMONEMIA DUE TO ORGANIC ACIDEMIAS: PROPIONIC ACIDEMIA, METHYLMALONIC ACIDEMIA

A NON-INTERVENTIONAL POST-AUTHORIZATION SAFETY STUDY (PASS) OF CARBAGLU® FOR THE TREATMENT OF HYPERAMMONEMIA DUE TO METHYLMALONIC ACIDEMIA (MMA) AND PROPIONIC ACIDEMIA (PA) IN ADULT AND PEDIATRIC PATIENT POPULATIONS

Study Description

This study is being conducted to obtain short-term and long-term clinical safety information from adult and pediatric patients treated for hyperammonemia due to Methylmalonic Acidemia (MMA) and Propionic Acidemia (PA). This is an observational/non-interventional study. Patients will be treated per the prescribing information and routine medical practice.

Only available data will be collected as part of the study including developmental outcomes, details of treatment with Carbaglu® and other treatments for hyperammonemia including dietary and protein management, plasma ammonia levels, pregnancy and maternal complications, adverse effects on the developing fetus and neonate, adverse effects on the infant through first year of life.

HYPERAMMONEMIA DUE TO UREA CYCLE DISORDERS: N-ACETYLGLUTAMATE SYNTHASE (NAGS) DEFICIENCY

ORPHAN EUROPE CARBAGLU® SURVEILLANCE PROTOCOL

Study Description

The purpose of this study is to conduct post-marketing surveillance of carglumic acid (Carbaglu) to obtain long-term clinical safety information. Carglumic acid was approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treatment of acute hyperammonemia due to N-acetylglutamate synthase (NAGS) deficiency. Much of the FDA-required data is already collected through the Longitudinal Study of Urea Cycle Disorders (RDCRN Protocol #5101). This study will collect additional data on adverse events (interim events), adverse reactions, pregnancy, and fetal outcomes.

Therapeutic area: Metabolic

Phase: 4
