About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Multicenter, Multinational, Clinical Study of Recombinant Human Alpha L-Iduronidase In Patients With Mucopolysaccharidosis I

This study is being conducted to demonstrate the safety and clinical efficacy of Aldurazyme treatment in MPS I patients

Being tested
rhIDU (recombinant human-Alpha-L-Iduronidase), Placebo
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • rhIDU (recombinant human-Alpha-L-Iduronidase)Biological

    Patients in the active treatment group received Aldurazyme intravenously at a dose of 100 units/kg (approximately 0.58mg/kg) administered intravenously over approximately 4 hours once weekly for 26 weeks.

  • PlaceboBiological

    Patients in the Placebo-control group were administered a solution of 100mM sodium phosphate , 150mM sodium chloride, and 0.001% polysorbate-80, adjusted to a pH of 5.8 administered intravenously over a time period of approximately 4 hours once weekly for 26 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall Change From Baseline to Week 26 in Percent Predicted Forced Vital Capacity (FVC)

    Percent Predicted Forced Vital Capacity (FVC): the maximal exhaled breathe volume following a maximal inhaled breath. Overall Change from Baseline to Week 26 in percent predicted FVC = (observed value)/(predicted value) * 100%). A higher value indicates a greater response.

    Measured: Baseline to Week 26

  2. Overall Change From Baseline to Week 26 in Six Minute Walk Test (6MWT)

    Six Minute Walk Test (6MWT): Distance walked (measured in meters) in 6 minutes. A longer distance indicates a greater response.

    Measured: Baseline to Week 26

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Overall Change From Baseline to Week 26 in Apnea/Hypopnea Index (AHI)

    Apnea/Hypopnea Index (AHI): Number of absent (apnea) and shallow (hypopnea) breaths per hour of sleep. Overall change from Baseline to Week 26 in AHI. A greater decrease in events indicates a greater response.

    Measured: Baseline to Week 26

  2. Overall Percent Change From Baseline to Week 26 in Liver Volume

    Liver Organ Volume: Volume of liver measured by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Greater decrease in volume indicates a greater response.

    Measured: Baseline to Week 26

  3. Overall Change From Baseline to Week 26 in Child Health Assessment Questionnaire/Health Assessment Questionnaire (CHAQ/HAQ) Disability Index Score

    CHAQ/HAQ) = Patient questionnaire that measures the degree of disability on a scale of 0 (no disability) to 3 (maximal disability). A lower score indicates a greater response.

    Measured: Baseline to week 26

  4. Overall Change From Baseline to Week 26 in Active Joint Range of Motion (ROM)

    Active Joint Range of Motion (ROM): Shoulder Flexion Ability to maximally raise one's arm overhead without assistance. Shoulder range of motion (mean of left and right arms) measured in degrees (0-180) by goniometry. Greater degree of flexion indicates greater response.

    Measured: Baseline to Week 26

  5. Overall Percent Change From Baseline to Week 26 in Urinary Glycosaminoglycan (GAG) Levels

    Urinary Glycosaminoglycan (GAG) Levels: Concentration of GAG relative to creatinine in urine. A greater decrease in GAG level indicates a greater response.

    Measured: Baseline to Week 26

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing rhIDU (recombinant human-Alpha-L-Iduronidase) in people with Mucopolysaccharidosis I and Hurlers Syndrome, run by Genzyme, a Sanofi Company at 4 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 5 inclusion and 6 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 7 Apr 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in United States, Canada, 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 19 Aug 2009). 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?

Overall Change From Baseline to Week 26 in Percent Predicted Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) (time frame: Baseline to Week 26). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT00912925, 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 7 Apr 2015.
