Study summary

This is a multicenter, multinational, randomized, active-controlled, operationally seamless Phase 2/3 study of BMN 333 in treatment-naïve pediatric participants with achondroplasia (ACH). The study consists of a Phase 2 part and a Phase 3 part.

Read the detailed description

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of BMN 333 on growth compared with vosoritide in participants with achondroplasia who have not received any growth-promoting treatments. The study includes 2 parts: the Phase 2 part will select the optimal BMN 333 dose to be used in Phase 3 and determine study continuation into Phase 3; the Phase 3 part will compare the effects of the selected dose of BMN 333 with vosoritide. Study details for either Phase 2 or Phase 3 include the following:

  • Study duration: up to 61 weeks (from screening to Safety Follow-up visit)
  • Treatment duration: 52 weeks. Treatment frequency: BMN 333, once weekly; vosoritide, once daily

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  1. Participants must be aged ≥ 2 to \< 11 years (Phase 2) or ≥ 2 to \< 18 years (Phase 3), at the time of signing the
  2. Participants must have ACH (confirmed by documented genetic testing) and open epiphyses
  3. Are Tanner Stage I (Phase 2) or any Tanner stage (Phase 3)
  4. Are ambulatory and able to stand without assistance

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Have any short stature condition other than ACH (eg, hypochondroplasia, trisomy 21, pseudoachondroplasia, GH deficiency)
  2. Have any of the following disorders: Hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism, unless treated with evidence of normalized thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels, diabetes mellitus, unless considered well-controlled, inflammatory disease, inflammatory bowel disease, autonomic neuropathy, anemia defined as \< 10 g/dL, vitamin D deficiency, significant hip pathology.
  3. Have history of any renal insufficiency or cardiac/ cardiovascular disease that places the participant at increased risk of an adverse cardiac outcome in the setting of hypotension.
  4. Have had bone fractures of the long bones or spine within 6 months prior to screening.
  5. Have used vosoritide, any other approved product (except GH, as detailed below), product, or investigational medical device for the treatment of ACH or short stature at any time
  6. Have been treated with GH, insulin-like growth factor 1, or anabolic steroids in the 6 months prior to treatment start
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(4)

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.

Informed consent

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.

Autoimmune disease

A condition in which the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, type 1 diabetes or inflammatory bowel disease.

Immunotherapy studies often leave out active autoimmune disease, and some name exceptions, such as thyroid disease on replacement hormone. Check the exceptions this study lists.

Hemoglobin (Hb)

The protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen. A low level is anaemia, which can cause tiredness and breathlessness. Measured in g/dL or g/L (9 g/dL is 90 g/L).

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

References and documents

Individual participant data

Plan to share: Yes — The de-identified individual participant data that underlie reported results (including text, tables, figures, and appendices) will be made available together with the research protocol and data dictionaries, for non-commercial, academic purposes. Additional supporting documents may be available upon request. Investigators will be able to request access to these data and supporting documents via a data sharing portal beginning 6 months and ending 2 years after publication. Data associated with any ongoing development program will be made available within six (6) months after approval of relevant product. Requests must include a research proposal clarifying how the data will be used, including proposed analysis methodology. Research proposals will be evaluated relative to publicly available criteria available at www.BioMarin.com/patients/publication-data-request/ to determine if access will be given, contingent upon execution of a data access agreement with BioMarin.
