  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Have a documented diagnosis of OTCD.
  • Documented history of ≥1 symptomatic hyperammonemia event with ammonia ≥100 µmol/L
  • Subject's OTCD is stable as evidenced by meeting the following criteria:

Who cannot join

  • Any laboratory abnormality that may put the subject at increased risk by participating in this study.
  • Have any significant concurrent or past medical condition that would represent an unacceptable risk to the subject or might jeopardize the collection of high-quality data from the study. These include but are not limited to:
  • History of liver transplant, including hepatocyte therapy/transplant
  • History of liver disease

  • Participation in previous clinical studies evaluating investigational OTCD therapies directed at expressing functional OTC protein (eg, OTC gene therapy studies, other mRNA replacement therapy) that has led to the presence of anti-OTC antibodies.

About this study

Official title: A Phase 1/2 Single Ascending Dose Study Evaluating the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of Intravenously Administered MRT5201 in Subjects With Ornithine Transcarbamylase Deficiency

This Phase 1/2, first-in-human study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of single escalating doses of MRT5201 administered intravenously to subjects with OTC Deficiency (OTCD). This study will also evaluate the effect of a single dose of MRT5201 on metabolic markers of OTCD and ureagenesis; and determine an acceptable dosing interval of MRT5201.

What is being measured

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

  1. The incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events by treatment group

    The incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) for each dosing cohort by treatment group, assessed by severity and relationship to study product.

    Measured: Week 24

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Pharmacokinetics parameters of MRT5201

    Pharmacokinetics of MRT5201 as measured by levels of mRNA

    Measured: 1 month after single dose

  2. Effect of a single dose of MRT5201 on ureagenesis

    Change from Baseline in 4-hour ureagenesis AUC at weeks 2, 3, 4, and 5 after a single dose of MRT5201

    Measured: Up to 1 month after single dose

  3. Effect of single dose of MRT5201 on metabolic markers of OTCD

    Change from Baseline in 8-hour ammonia AUC

    Measured: 6 months after single dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing MRT5201 in people with Ornithine Transcarbamylase Deficiency, run by Translate Bio, Inc..

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 7 inclusion and 9 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Sep 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

The incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events by treatment group (time frame: Week 24). 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 17 Sep 2019.
