This is a multicenter, randomized, controlled versus placebo, double-blinded, 4 parallel arms, dose-ranging main study, to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability, and acceptability of repeated doses of ADV7103, after 7 days of treatment, in patients with cystinuria, and an efficacy and safety exploratory study in the youngest children.
The study will target enrolling at least 15 subjects in each of the following age groups: 6 months - 5 years (B13CS part only); 6-11 years; 12-17 years and adults>18. Subjects will be in the study for up to 7 weeks.
After screening and enrollment (up to 35 days), Eligible patients will be treated will alkalinizing treatment (SoC) at the well-adapted dose and regimen for 7 days. An in-patient visit is planned at the end of this period. The baseline evaluations, including urine pH and specific gravity, will be done during this inpatient visit, from Day -1 t0 to t24h. After this visit, patients are randomized in a balanced manner (1:1:1:1) to one of the 4 possible treatment arms, ADV7103 at a low dose, medium dose or high dose, or ADV7103 placebo. For patients in B13CS part, a period of titration is planned before the 7 days of treatment with ADV7103. No use of placebo in B13CS.
Controls of urine pH will be done at the patient's home with a pocket glass electrode pH-meter on fresh urines, at least twice a day: before the administration of ADV7103, in the morning at t0 and in the evening at t12h (12hrs after last ADV7103 intake and before the next dose).
Subjects will have the opportunity to subsequently enter a long-term, open-label extension.

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
A line of therapy is one course of treatment, which may combine several drugs. First-line is the first course given; second-line follows when that stops working or is not tolerated.
“Two prior lines” means two courses that count separately under the study’s rules — not simply two drugs. Ask the study team if you are unsure how yours are counted.
Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).
Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.
Periods have stopped for good: usually no period for 12 months in a row without another medical reason, sometimes confirmed by a blood test (FSH).
Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.
Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
GFR (glomerular filtration rate) is how much blood the kidneys filter each minute. It is usually estimated from a blood test — eGFR, by formulas such as CKD-EPI or MDRD — and some studies ask for it to be measured directly instead. Usually given in mL/min/1.73 m².
Check the method, the units and the minimum the study states. A value of 90 or above is in the normal-or-high range, but kidney damage can show in other tests too.
An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.
The other ingredients in a medicine besides the active drug, such as fillers, colours or preservatives.

Each dose of ADV7103 contains a fixed ratio of 1/3 of ADV7103-CK (potassium citrate) and 2/3 of ADV7103-BK (potassium bicarbonate) based on the mass of active substances.
Placebo is a combination of 2 mm green coated lactose granules and 2 mm white coated lactose granules. Each dose of placebo contains a fixed ratio of 1/3 of green granules and 2/3 of white granules.
Percentage of urinary pH values ≥ 7.0 during 24h on Day 7 (after ADV7103 treatment period)
The primary endpoint is the comparison between the probability of having an urinary PH ≥ 7.0 based on all urinations during Day 7 in an ADV7103 dose versus the probability in the placebo group. All urinations on Day 7 with an evaluable pH measure will be included in the analysis. The study will be declared positive if the chance of having pH value ≥ 7.0 at each urination on D7 is superior with at least one ADV7103 treatment group than with placebo.
