About this study

Official title: An Open-label, Single Arm Study of the Safety, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Efficacy of Leniolisib in Pediatric Patients Aged 4 to 11 Years With Activated Phosphoinositide 3-Kinase Delta Syndrome Followed by an Open-label Long-term Extension

This is a 2-part, prospective, open-label, single arm, multicenter study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PDx), and efficacy of leniolisib in at least 15 pediatric patients (aged 4 to 11 years) with activated phosphoinositide 3-kinase delta (PI3Kδ) syndrome (APDS).

Read the detailed description

Part I will consist of a 12-week period to assess the safety and efficacy of treatment with leniolisib. Part II will consist of a 1-year, long-term, safety follow-up extension with a possible interim analysis.

The leniolisib doses to be used in study were selected based on safety, tolerability, PK, and PDx data from the adult Phase 2/3 study, as well as PK modeling data. In both parts of the study, leniolisib will be administered orally based on weight.

  7. Part I & II: Reduction in lymphoproliferation as measured by MRI or low-dose CT

    For the assessment of the impact of leniolisib on lymphoproliferation, patients will be scanned in an MRI or a CT scanner as based on clinical practice and local regulation. Index lesions will be selected from measurable nodal and extra nodal lesions as per the Cheson methodology. The same imaging modality will be used throughout the study for the same patient.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Leniolisib in people with APDS, run by Pharming Technologies B.V. at 7 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?

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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 May 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in United States, Japan, France. 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.

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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Part I & II: Number of Participants with Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) , and Adverse Events (AEs) (time frame: From baseline to end of 12 weeks, & From baseline to through study completion, an average of 1 year, plus 30 days). The study lists 8 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 6 May 2026.
