Study summary

White blood cell (WBC) cystine levels serve as the primary therapeutic target for monitoring cysteamine treatment in cystinosis, with a goal of \<1.9 nmol ½ cystine/mg protein as measured 5-6 hours post-dose when treated with immediate-release formulation, Cystagon® , or 11-12 hours post-dose when treated with delayed-release formulation, Procysbi®, using UCSD granulocyte assay.

Although cysteamine dosing in cystinosis has traditionally been individualized based on WBC cystine levels, the FDA-approved Cystagon® prescribing information now includes an approximate recommended maintenance dose of 1.30 g/m²/day. When this dosing strategy is plotted against body weight, it aligns with the dosing regimen of TTI-0102 that was found effective in mitochondrial diseases, demonstrating a linear relationship between dose and weight.

The main objective of this study is to demonstrate that administration of a single dose of 60 ± 5 mg/kg/day of TTI-0102 (\~26 mg/kg cysteamine base equivalent) allows maintenance of WBC cystine at \<1.9 nmol ½ cystine/mg protein over 24 hours as determined by UCSD granulocyte assay.

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

  • Adults aged 18-65 years with a confirmed diagnosis of cystinosis based on clinical features and/or genetic testing, with or without history of kidney transplantation.
  • Currently treated with a stable dose of Cystagon® or Procysbi® for at least 3 months prior to enrollment.
  • Body weight between 50 kg and 80 kg at screening.
  • Able to attend all required study visits and comply with study procedures, including blood draws over a 24-hour period.
  • Able to provide in English.
  • The first 3 patients must have WBC cystine levels over the last year no more than 50% greater than the upper limit of target level

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Known or allergy to cysteamine, pantetheine, TTI-0102, or any in the study drug.
  • uncontrolled medical conditions (e.g., unstable cardiac, hepatic, or renal disease) that, in the investigator's judgment, would increase risk or interfere with study participation.
  • Participation in another interventional clinical trial within 30 days prior to screening.
  • Any condition that, in the investigator's opinion, would make the participant an unsuitable candidate (e.g., inability to comply with procedures, significant cognitive impairment, active substance use disorder).
  • Any patient who is pregnant, plans to become pregnant or is unwilling to use measures during study participation.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(5)

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.

Hypersensitivity

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.

Excipients

The other ingredients in a medicine besides the active drug, such as fillers, colours or preservatives.

Clinically significant

Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.

Contraception

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.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. White blood cell (WBC) cystine

    The primary endpoint is the change in white blood cell (WBC) cystine levels following treatment with TTI-0102. The study will evaluate whether a weight-based dose of 60 ± 5 mg/kg/day maintains WBC cystine levels below 1 nmol ½ cystine/mg protein over 24 hours.

    Time frame: Comparison of baseline, Day 1-2, Day 3-4, and treatment end (Day 7)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Pharmacokinetic parameter: Cmax

    cysteamine in plasma

    Time frame: At specified days/timepoints during the treatment period: Day1-2, Day 3-4, Day 7

  2. Pharmacokinetic parameter: Tmax

    cysteamine in plasma

    Time frame: At specified days/timepoints during the treatment period: Day1-2, Day 3-4, Day 7

  3. Pharmacokinetic parameter: AUC

    cysteamine in plasma

    Time frame: At specified days/timepoints during the treatment period: Day1-2, Day 3-4, Day 7

  4. Pharmacodynamic biomarker: lactate in plasma

    Time frame: Baseline (Day 0) to treatment end (Day 7)

  5. Pharmacodynamic biomarker: pyruvate in whole blood

    Time frame: Baseline (Day 0) to treatment end (Day 7)

  6. Pharmacodynamic biomarker: tryptophan in plasma

    Time frame: Baseline (Day 0) to treatment end (Day 7)

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Sep 23, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
