SARACATINIB

Clinical trials are investigating SARACATINIB in people with Fibrodyplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP). These studies are designed to assess safety, tolerability, and whether the treatment may reduce abnormal bone formation. The trial data below focus on adults or patients with FOP who are taking part in a Phase 2 study.

Trials overview

The available trial data show one interventional study of SARACATINIB in people with Fibrodyplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP).[1] The study is designed to judge safety, tolerability, and the effect on abnormal bone formation.[1]

Study design and treatment groups

This trial is listed as Phase 2, which means it is looking more closely at whether the treatment may help and is still monitoring safety.[1] The study compares SARACATINIB with placebo, which is a look-alike tablet without the study drug.[1]

The intervention list names AZD0530 and SARACATINIB together, and the title also uses the name sarcatinib in lower case, but the drug name in this article is kept exactly as SARACATINIB as requested.[1] The source data also says the medicine is given orally, meaning by mouth.[1]

Who can participate

The trial is for patients with FOP, the condition named in the record.[1] The source data does not list more detailed entry rules, such as age limits or other medical requirements.[1]

What is being measured

The main safety measure is the incidence and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events, which means how often side effects happen and how serious they are after treatment starts.[1] The main efficacy measure is the number of new lesions, meaning new areas of abnormal bone formation.[1]

The study checks these new lesions using [18F]-NaF PET and CT at week 26.[1] PET is an imaging scan that can show active changes in the body, and CT is a scan that gives detailed pictures of body structures.[1]

Trial status and size

The trial status is listed as Authorised.[1] The planned enrollment is 18 people, which means 18 participants are expected to join.[1]

The brief summary says the study aims to assess the effectivity of treatment with AZD0530 on HO formation, where HO means abnormal bone formation in this trial record.[1]

Glossary

  • Fibrodyplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP): A rare condition studied in this trial. The trial record focuses on abnormal bone formation in people with FOP.
  • Phase 2: A study stage that checks whether a treatment may work and continues to monitor safety.
  • Interventional study: A trial where participants receive a treatment or placebo so researchers can compare results.
  • Safety: How well a treatment can be used without causing harmful problems.
  • Tolerability: How well a person can take a treatment without major trouble.
  • Placebo: A look-alike tablet with no active study drug. It is used for comparison.
  • Randomized controlled trial (RCT): A study where people are assigned to different groups by chance, often to compare a treatment with placebo.
  • Treatment-emergent adverse events: Side effects or medical problems that start or get worse after treatment begins.
  • Abnormal bone formation: New bone forming where it should not, which is the main outcome being studied in this trial.
  • [18F]-NaF PET: An imaging test used in the trial to detect active new bone lesions.
  • CT: A scan that gives detailed pictures of the body and is used here to detect new bone lesions.
  • Enrollment: The number of people planned to join the study.
