Filter by:Longitudinal, exploratory, natural history study of patients with MMA due to mut deficiency and PA to characterize the changes in blood disease biomarkers over time and the frequency and severity of clinical events related to their disease.
A Phase IIIb (Three b), Randomized Multicentre Comparative Trial to Evaluate the Long Term Effectiveness & Safety of the use of Carglumic Acid (Carbaglu®) in Patients with Propionic Acidemia (PA) or Methylmalonic Acidemia (MMA). Carbaglu® clinical experience in Organic Acidemia (OA) is limited to a non-comparative retrospective collection of data from patients who had received Carbaglu® for 1 to 15 days. There is no current evidence supporting the use of carglumic acid for the chronic management of patients with OA. The investigators are proposing a randomized multicentre prospective clinical trial to evaluate long-term effects of the use of Carbaglu® (50mg/kg/day) combined with standard chronic therapy in patients with PA and MMA compared to standard chronic therapy alone.
The overall objective of this drug trial is to determine whether the treatment of acute hyperammonemia with N-carbamyl-L-glutamate (NCG, Carglumic acid) in propionic acidemia (PA), methylmalonic acidemia (MMA), late-onset CPS1 deficiency (CPSD) and late-onset Ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (OTCD) accelerates the resolution of hyperammonemia efficiently and safely. The primary goal is to determine if the study drug (NCG) efficiently reduces ammonia levels following a hyperammonemia episode(s). Secondly, the investigators want to know if treatment with this study drug (NCG) efficiently improves neurologic function, reduces plasma glutamine levels and lessens the duration of hospitalization after each episode of hyperammonemia.
