A Trial to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of KRN23 in Epidermal Nevus Syndrome (ENS)
Study Purpose
KRN23 is a fully human immunoglobulin monoclonal antibody (mAb) that binds to and inhibits the activity of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), leading to an increase in serum phosphorus levels. There are multiple disorders that result in unusually high circulating levels of FGF23, which in turn result in renal phosphate wasting and reduced levels of 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D (1,25[OH]2D). Across these disorders the clinical symptoms are similar and often include osteomalacia (and, in children, rickets), muscle weakness, fatigue, bone pain, and fractures. KRN23 has been studied in one of these disorders, X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH). In single- and repeat-dose clinical studies in subjects with XLH, subcutaneous (SC) administration of KRN23 consistently increased and sustained serum phosphorus levels and tubular reabsorption of phosphate (TRP) without a major impact on urine calcium levels or vitamin D metabolism. Positive results were also observed in a nonclinical pharmacology model of XLH. It is hypothesized that KRN23 may provide clinical benefit in this patient due to the common underlying feature in this patient and in patients with XLH
- - abnormally elevated FGF23 in the context of low age -adjusted serum phosphorous levels.

Accepts Healthy Volunteers
Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms |
No |
Study Type
An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes. An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes. Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies. |

Trial Details
Trial ID:
This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries. |
NCT04320316 |
Phase
Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans. Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data. Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs. Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use. |
