Details and patient eligibility

About

This is a multicenter Phase 2, multiple dose, dose escalation study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and efficacy of SPR001 in adult patients with classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH).

Full description

This is a 6-week, multiple-dose, dose escalation study of SPR001 for the treatment of adults with classic CAH. After screening, eligible patients will be enrolled into a 6-week treatment period followed by a 4-week washout/safety follow-up period.

It is initially planned that up to approximately 18 patients in 2 dose cohorts will be enrolled. Additional patients or dose groups may be considered based upon specific safety, PK/PD, and/or efficacy findings, or if an active dose has not yet been reached.

SPR001 will be administered as an oral daily dose. Patients will undergo titration of SPR001 through three escalating dosage strengths at 2-week intervals. Patients will have overnight PK/PD assessments performed at baseline, which include an pre-dose overnight assessment and a post-dose overnight assessment for PK/PD following administration of the first dose. At the end of each 2-week dosing period, patients will return for single overnight visits for steady-state PK/PD assessments.

A follow-up outpatient visit will occur 30 days after their last dose.

Enrollment: 24 patients

---

24 participants in 3 patient groups

Cohort A

Experimental group

Description:

The first cohort of 9 patients will be administered SPR001 at dose strength of Dose A daily for 2 weeks, and escalating through Dose B per day for 2 weeks and Dose C per day for 2 weeks.

Treatment:

Drug: SPR001

Cohort B

Experimental group

Description:

Cohort B will begin enrollment after Cohort A has been fully enrolled. Starting dose selection and the stepwise dosing paradigm for Cohort B will be determined by an interim review of safety and PK/PD data from from Cohort A.

Treatment:

Drug: SPR001

Cohort C

Experimental group

Description:

Cohort C will begin enrollment after Cohort B has been fully enrolled. Starting dose selection and the stepwise dosing paradigm for Cohort C will be determined by an interim review of safety and PK/PD data from from Cohort A and B.

Treatment:

Drug: SPR001
