4 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Study ACTIVATE-Kids (AG348-C-023) will evaluate the efficacy and safety of orally administered mitapivat as compared with placebo in pediatric participants with pyruvate kinase deficiency (PKD) who are not regularly receiving blood transfusions. Participants will be randomized 2:1 to receive either mitapivat or matching placebo. Randomization will be stratified by age (1 to \< 6 years, 6 to \< 12 years, 12 to \< 18 years). Participants will be dosed by age and weight during a double-blind period consisting of an 8-week dose titration period followed by a 12-week fixed-dose period. Participants who complete the double-blind period will be eligible to receive mitapivat for up to 5 years in the open-label extension (OLE) period.
ACTIVATE-KidsT (AG348-C-022) is a multicenter study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of treatment with mitapivat compared with placebo in pediatric participants with pyruvate kinase deficiency (PK deficiency) who are regularly receiving blood transfusions. Participants will be randomized 2:1 to receive either mitapivat or matching placebo. Randomization will be stratified by age (1 to \< 6 years, 6 to \< 12 years, 12 to \< 18 years) and splenectomy status. Participants will be dosed by age and weight during a double-blind period consisting of an 8-week dose titration period followed by a 24-week fixed-dose period. Participants who complete the double-blind period will be eligible to receive mitapivat in the open-label extension (OLE) period.
The purpose of the study is to determine the effectiveness of LOVAZA (fish oil capsules) to decrease inflammation in children and adolescents with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD). It has been found that besides the damage caused by sickle red blood cells themselves, the inflammatory response that occurs in SCD patients could potentially play a significant role in the occurrence of painful episodes or pain crises. The investigators will also study whether the subject/caregiver feels that there is an improvement in the child's quality of life by taking the medication. Besides the effect of LOVAZA on inflammation,the investigators are also testing whether the drug will have a beneficial effect on blood clotting ability (which is known to be increased in SCD) and on the anemia (low red blood cells) that is part of the disease entity.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, effectiveness, and biological activity (how the investigational medication is processed by the body) of pegcetacoplan in 12-17 year-olds (adolescents) who have paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH).
