About this study

Official title: Dietary Therapy of Mitochondrial Fatty Acids Oxidation. A Clinical Study of Treatment With Odd Carbons Medium-chain Fatty Acids

Usual dietary therapies of mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation disorders (FAO) are based on 3 strategies:

  • limitation of lipid intake in the diet;
  • supplementation of the diet with medium-chain triglycerides (MCT) for patients affected with disorders of long-chain FAO;
  • some specific supplementations (for example, L-carnitine).

These strategies are often ineffective. The aim of the present study is to evaluate new therapeutic ways based on the underlying energetic defect observed in these disorders. The long-term goal is to develop efficient therapies of these disorders.

Read the detailed description

The main specific aim of this study will be to determine the efficiency of odd-chain MCT: TRIHEPTANOIN (Tri-C7) and its metabolites, BETA-HYDROXYPENTANOATE (BHP) and BETA-KETOPENTANOATE (BKP), as potential treatments by orale or enteral routes. These compounds are efficiently used for energy production, despite long-chain FAO enzyme defects. They use alternative metabolic pathways and have anaplerotic effects due to propionyl-CoA production by the thiolytic cleavage of odd carbon ketone bodies.

The efficiency of these compounds will be compared with conventional diet (MCT) for each patient. Because of frequent phenotypic variations observed for each of these diseases, each patient will be his own control.

The same protocol study will be followed in 2 centers: Dallas, USA (main investigator: Dr CR Roe) and Paris, France (main investigator: Dr G TOUATI). It is planned to include 80 patients (60 in Dallas, 20 in Paris), during the next 2 years. The patients will be affected with 6 proven defects that are specific defects of long-chain FAO: carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 (CPT1), carnitine-acylcarnitine translocase (CAT), carnitine palmitoyltransferase 2 (CPT2), very-long chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (VLCAD), L-3-hydroxy-acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (LCHAD) or trifunctional protein (MTP).

The used methodology will be a control randomized study to compare the efficiency of 2 diet therapies: TRIHEPTANOIN versus conventional MCT. The studied parameters will depend on each disease and will depend on the affected organs in each patient. Main studied clinical parameters will be: survival rate, number of metabolic acute decompensation, frequency and severity of hypoglycemias, frequency and severity of rhabdomyolyses, evolution of cardiac or hepatic manifestations, muscular strength, and quality of life. Main studied biological parameters will be: TRIHEPTANOIN use during meal tests, modifications of plasma acylcarnitines profile, modifications of urinary organic acids, blood measurements of CPK and transaminases. Cardiac echographies will be performed for the follow-up of cardiomyopathies, ergometric testing and strength tests will be performed for disorders that affect muscular function.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Oil special 107 and MYGLIOL 810 in people with Inborn Errors of Metabolism, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Feb 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Strength tests (time frame: 24 months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Feb 2011.
