About this study

Official title: Phase 3 Open-Label Switch Over Study to Assess Safety, Efficacy & PK of Pegunigalsidase Alfa (PRX-102) 2mg/kg IV Every 4 Weeks for 52 Weeks in Fabry Disease Patients Currently Treated With Enzyme Replacement Therapy Fabrazyme® or Replagal™

This open-label switchover study will assess the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of pegunigalsidase alfa (PRX-102) 2 mg/kg administered every 4 weeks for 52 weeks in Fabry patients previously treated with ERT: agalsidase alfa or agalsidase beta for at least 3 years. Safety and efficacy exploratory endpoints will be evaluated throughout the study period and pharmacokinetics will be obtained on Day 1 and Week 52.

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label switchover study to assess the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of pegunigalsidase alfa treatment of 2 mg/kg every 4 weeks in patients previously treated with enzyme-replacement therapy (ERT): agalsidase alfa or agalsidase beta, for at least 3 years and on a stable dose (>80% labelled dose/kg) for at least the last 6 months. Following screening, patients will be enrolled and switched from their current ERT to receive intravenous (IV) infusions of pegunigalsidase alfa 2 mg/kg every 4 weeks for 52 weeks (total of 14 infusions). At the time of enrollment, premedication, if used for the agalsidase alfa or agalsidase beta infusions before enrollment, will be continued using the same premedication regimen during the first infusion with pegunigalsidase alfa and then will be gradually tapered down at the Investigator's discretion during the next infusions based on protocol-specified criteria. First infusions of pegunigalsidase alfa will be administered under controlled conditions at the investigation site. Based on the protocol-specified criteria, patients will be able to receive their pegunigalsidase alfa infusions at a home care setup once the Investigator and Sponsor Medical Monitor agree that it is safe to do so. Safety and efficacy exploratory endpoints will be assessed throughout the 52-week study. In the case of clear clinical deterioration, the treatment may be changed to 1.0 mg/kg every 2 weeks at the Investigator's discretion and discussion with the Medical Monitor.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Pegunigalsidase alfa in people with Fabry Disease, run by Protalix at 14 sites in 7 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 16 inclusion and 11 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 13 Sep 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 14 sites in United States, United Kingdom, Belgium, Czechia, Denmark and 2 more countries. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 5 Jan 2023). 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?

Number of Participants With Treatment-related Adverse Events (TEAE) as Assessed by CTCAE v4.03 (time frame: Month 12). 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 NCT03180840, 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 13 Sep 2023.
