Official title: A Collection of Case Studies in Infants With Urea Cycle Disorders (UCD) to Evaluate Infant Growth and the Safety of a New Medical Food for UCD

Original study: Study aims to enroll 3-5 children with confirmed Urinary Cycle Disorder (UCD). Subjects meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria are included during the baseline visit. All subjects will receive the investigational product for a period of 16 weeks. At baseline, 2, 4, 8, 12 and 16 weeks the study parameters are assessed.

The study amendment aims to collect case studies retrospectively of children who have used UCD Anamix Infant for at least 16 weeks, in countries where UCD Anamix Infant is already available on the market. It is aimed to collect the same study parameters of the original study at preferably the same timepoints.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing UCD Anamix Infant in people with Urea Cycle Disorder and Inborn Errors of Metabolism, run by Nutricia Research at 1 site in United States.

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 8 inclusion and 10 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?

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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?

Growth: weight (time frame: 16 weeks). 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 9 Dec 2021.
