About this study

Official title: A Retrospective Chart Review Study to Assess the Clinical Outcome of Triheptanoin Treatment in Patients With Long-chain Fatty Acid Oxidation Disorders (LC-FAOD) Treated Under Expanded Access Program

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the clinical outcomes for the trigger event of patients who receive triheptanoin in the emergency Investigational New Drug (eIND) program.

Read the detailed description

The study is a retrospective chart review of patients in the USA with LC-FAOD who received triheptanoin via eIND request from their metabolic or treating physician before 01 September 2018. Participating study sites will provide the medical records of subjects who meet eligibility criteria, and relevant data regarding the trigger event (the reason the patient was placed on triheptanoin) and key details about hospitalizations during the study period will be extracted.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 15 sites in United States. 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?

Duration of Hospitalization for Trigger Event (time frame: Up to 48 Weeks Prior to and 48 Weeks After the Start of Triheptanoin Treatment). The study lists 4 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 28 Aug 2020.
