Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 5 to 60 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult

Who may be able to join

  • Documentation of diagnosis of PH I by any one of the following:
  • Liver biopsy confirmation of deficient liver specific peroxisomal alanine-glyoxylate aminotransferase, (AGT or mislocalization of AGT from peroxisomes to mitochondria)
  • Homozygosity or compound heterozygosity for a known mutation in the causative gene (AGXT) for PH I
  • Male or female subjects between 5 years and 60 years of age
  • Renal function defined as an estimated GFR > 60 ml/min normalized to 1.73 m2 body surface area
  • Subjects receiving pyridoxal-phosphate before the study must be willing to discontinue therapy with pyridoxal-phosphate for a wash out phase of at least 4 weeks but always until normalization of serum pyridoxal-phosphate levels
  • Written informed consent from patients and/or legally acceptable representatives

Who cannot join

  • Pregnant or lactating women
  • Women of child-bearing potential who are not using a highly effective contraception method with a pearl-index < 1. Highly effective contraception methods are oral, transdermal, injectable, or implanted contraceptives, IUD, abstinence, or sterile sexual partner and must agree to continue using such precautions during the pyridoxal-phosphate study
  • Subjects post liver or kidney transplantation or combined transplantation
  • Chronic diarrhoea with the risk of malabsorption
  • Any other abnormal finding such as physical examination or laboratory evaluation, in the opinion of the investigator, is indicative of a disease that would compromise the safety taking pyridoxal-phosphate per os and the absorption
  • Subjects participating in other clinical trials with investigational products 4 weeks prior to trial entry, during the trial and 4 weeks after the trial
Show all 12Show fewer
  • Subjects who are unable to take the trial medication
  • Subjects who are unable to collect 24-hour urine samples or follow other study procedures
  • Subjects who are under treatment with L-Dopa, Isoniazid, D-Penicillamine (interactions between these drugs and pyridoxal-phosphate are known and might influence serum pyridoxal-phosphate levels)
  • Subjects with known allergies to substances of contents (e.g. Potassium sorbet, raspberry syrup)
  • Subjects confined to an institution on judicial or official behalf
  • Subjects who are in dependency to the sponsor or the PI of the trial

About this study

Official title: PILOTSTUDIE ZUR PYRIDOXALPHOSPHATTHERAPIE BEI PATIENTEN MIT PRIMÄRER HYPEROXALURIE TYP I (PHOX-B6-PILOT) Pilot Trial on Treatment of Patients With Primary Hyperoxaluria Type I With Pyridoxal-phosphate

In this study the investigators will prospectively analyze the reduction of urinary oxalate excretion under the treatment with PLP in dosages of 5mg/kg/day up to 20 mg/kg/day and serum level response relationship with PLP as an i.v. solution used orally in 12 patients with primary hyperoxaluria type I as an inherited autosomal-recessive-disorder leading to increased endogenous oxalate production, urolithiasis and end stage renal disease.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The primary endpoint of the study is the reduction of the urinary oxalate excretion (percentage change in urinary oxalate, expressed as mmol/1.73 m2 /day) at week 24 compared to baseline.

    Measured: 6 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Vitamin B 6 in people with Primary Hyperoxaluria Type I, run by University of Cologne at 1 site in Germany.

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 7 inclusion and 12 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 29 Oct 2012. 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 Germany. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

The primary endpoint of the study is the reduction of the urinary oxalate excretion (percentage change in urinary oxalate, expressed as mmol/1.73 m2 /day) at week 24 compared to baseline. (time frame: 6 month). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01281878, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 29 Oct 2012.
