5 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the long-term safety of UX003 in subjects with MPS 7.
The primary objective was to evaluate the effect of UX003 treatment in pediatric MPS VII participants less than 5 years of age on safety, tolerability, and efficacy as determined by the reduction of urinary glycosaminoglycans (uGAG) excretion.
The Phase 3 study will use a novel randomized, intra-subject placebo-controlled, single crossover design, referred to as Blind Start, to evaluate the safety and efficacy of UX003. The Blind Start is a novel design whereby participants will be randomized to 1 of 4 groups, each representing a different treatment sequence, and will cross over to UX003 at different pre-defined time points in a blinded manner. All groups will receive a minimum of 24 weeks treatment with 4 mg/kg UX003 every other week (QOW).
Emergency access granted to treat a single patient with advanced Mucopolysaccharidosis Type 7 with UX003 Recombinant Human Beta-glucuronidase (rhGUS) Enzyme Replacement Therapy via IV administration every other week (QOW) for up to 144 weeks.
Early Check provides voluntary screening of newborns for a selected panel of conditions. The study has three main objectives: 1) develop and implement an approach to identify affected infants, 2) address the impact on infants and families who screen positive, and 3) evaluate the Early Check program. The Early Check screening will lead to earlier identification of newborns with rare health conditions in addition to providing important data on the implementation of this model program. Early diagnosis may result in health and development benefits for the newborns. Infants who have newborn screening in North Carolina will be eligible to participate, equating to over 120,000 eligible infants a year. Over 95% of participants are expected to screen negative. Newborns who screen positive and their parents are invited to additional research activities and services. Parents can enroll eligible newborns on the Early Check electronic Research Portal. Screening tests are conducted on residual blood from existing newborn screening dried blood spots. Confirmatory testing is provided free-of-charge for infants who screen positive, and carrier testing is provided to mothers of infants with fragile X. Affected newborns have a physical and developmental evaluation. Their parents have genetic counseling and are invited to participate in surveys and interviews. Ongoing evaluation of the program includes additional parent interviews.
