Conditions: Ornithine Transcarbamylase Deficiency

Treatments: Other: No Intervention

Study type: Observational

Funder types: Industry

Identifiers

NCT04717453

DTX301-CL102

Details and patient eligibility

About

The objectives of the study are to characterize urea production rates in patients with OTC, characterize the association of rate of ureagenesis and disease severity in OTC patients, characterize the association of rate of ureagenesis and executive and verbal function and characterize the association of rate of ureagenesis and patient-reported functional status.

Full description

Study DTX301-CL102 is a noninterventional, observational study to characterize the rate of ureagenesis and to assess neurocognition and functional status in the spectrum of OTC deficiency and their association with biochemical characteristics. [1-13C]Sodium acetate will be administered orally as a tracer to measure the rate of ureagenesis.

Enrollment: 1 patient

Sex: All

Ages: 18+ years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

• Patients on ongoing daily ammonia scavenger therapy must be at a stable dose(s) for ≥ 4 weeks prior to Visit 1 (Baseline)
• For asymptomatic patients: confirmed diagnosis of OTC deficiency by family history and documented by molecular testing.
• Willing and able to comply with the study procedures and requirements, including clinic visits, blood and urine collections, questionnaires, and cognitive assessments.

Key Exclusion Criteria:

Trial design

1 participants in 1 patient group

Adult Patients with OTC Deficiency

Description:

Eligible subjects will be asked to participate in 5 clinic visits, each lasting up to 3 days. Each visit will assess rate of ureagenesis during the 4 hours following ingestion of \[1-13C\]sodium acetate. Sodium acetate is used as a tracer to measure the rate of ureagenesis. Patient interview, reported outcomes and cognitive assessments will take place over the 3 days.

Treatment:

Other: No Intervention
