About this study

Official title: Oral Disodiumpyrophosphate (Na2H2PPi) Absorption in Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum (PXE)

Pyrophosphate is an endogenous, non-toxic metabolite inhibiting soft tissue calcification. The aim of our study is to find optimal dosing and safety of oral disodium-PPi (Na2H2PPi). Absorption curves (pharmacokinetics), AUC0-t, Cmax and Tmax for PPi and phosphate will be provided for healthy controls and PXE-patients both fasting and with standard meal intake.

Read the detailed description

Phase II oral capsulized disodium-PPi (Na2H2PPi) powder absorption study in subjects with PXE (n=8-12) will be done in the ward of Internal Medicine of Tampere University Hospital and University Medical Center Utrecht.

After a 10-hour fast at 8.00 a.m. 30 mg/kg (first day) and 50 mg/kg (second day) capsulized dose of PPi will be given with 2 dl water. At 12.00 a.m. another capsulized 30 mg/kg (first day) or 50 mg/kg (second day) single dose of PPi with a standard mixed meal (lunch) will be given with 2 dl water at the time when a subject starts eating.

Plasma and urine sampling include plasma and spot urine electrolytes, creatinine, and pyrophosphate. Plasma sampling will be done at 0, 15, 30, 60, 120 and 240 min after ingestion of PPi. Urine spot sample will be taken at 0 and 240 min after ingestion of PPi.

Physical activity is restricted. Side-effects will be recorded.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Disodium Pyrophosphate in people with Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum, run by Tampere University Hospital.

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 3 inclusion and 3 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Apr 2021. 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. 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 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?

Concentration area under the curve 0-t of pyrophosphate (time frame: two days). 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 22 Apr 2021.
