About this study

Official title: A Phase 3/4, Prospective, Multinational, Open-label, Noninferiority Study of Alglucosidase Alfa Manufactured at the 160 L and 4000 L Scales in Treatment Naïve Patients With Infantile-Onset Pompe Disease

A study to demonstrate comparable safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of alglucosidase alfa manufactured at the 160 litre (L) and 4000 L scales in participants who had been diagnosed with infantile-onset Pompe disease. Participants were treated with alglucosidase alfa 160 L scale product in the United States (US) and 4000 L scale product in the regions outside the US.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change From Baseline in Cardiac Function at Week 52

    Cardiac function was measured by the left ventricular mass Z-score (LVM-Z). Z-Scores indicate the number of standard deviations (SD) from the mean in a normal distribution. A negative change from baseline indicates a decrease and positive change from baseline indicates an increase in LVM Z-score. The normal range is -2 to 2 and greater than 2 may indicate left ventricular hypertrophy.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 52

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Percentage of Participants With Estimated Probability of Survival

    Measured: Up to Week 52

  2. Number of Participants With Invasive Ventilator-Free Survival

    Invasive ventilator-free survival was defined as the time during which the participant is alive and not invasively ventilated. Number of Participants with invasive ventilator-free survival were reported.

    Measured: Up to Week 52

  3. Change From Baseline in Motor Development Status at Week 52

    Motor development status was assessed by the Gross Motor Function Measure - 88 Scale (GMFM-88) total percent scores. GMFM-88 is an 88-item measure to detect gross motor function. It consists of 5 categories: lying and rolling; sitting; crawling and kneeling; standing; walking, running and jumping. Each item was scored on a 4-point Likert scale (0 = cannot do; 1 = initiates [<10% of the task]; 2 = partially completes [10% to <100% of the task]; 3 = task completion). The score for each dimension was expressed as a percentage of the maximum score for that dimension. Total score ranges from 0% to 100%, where higher scores indicate better motor functions.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 52

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing alglucosidase alfa in people with Pompe Disease (Infantile-Onset) and Glycogen Storage Disease Type II (GSD II), run by Genzyme, a Sanofi Company at 17 sites in 3 countries.

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 4 inclusion and 8 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Jan 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 17 sites in United States, Germany, Taiwan. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 18 Jan 2016). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Change From Baseline in Cardiac Function at Week 52 (time frame: Baseline, Week 52). 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 18 Jan 2016.
