Interventional Study of Infigratinib in Children < 3 Years Old With Achondroplasia (ACH)

This is a Phase 2, multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of infigratinib in participants < 3 years old with ACH. The purposes of the SAD and Phase 2 portions are to identify and confirm the dose of infigratinib to be used in the Phase 2b portion, based on safety and PK. The purpose of the Phase 2b, placebo-controlled portion is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of infigratinib in children < 3 years old with ACH at the selected dose.

Key information

About this study

PROPEL Infant & Toddler (I&T) is a Phase 2, multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled study that comprises 4 portions: the single ascending dose (SAD) portion (open-label), the Phase 2 portion (open-label), the Phase 2b portion (placebo-controlled), and an Extension Portion (open-label). The study will evaluate children with ACH < 3 years old being administered oral infigratinib.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Diagnosis of ACH confirmed by genetic testing. If prospective participants had prior genetic testing, the diagnosis must be confirmed by a report from a certified laboratory, documenting the specific mutation.
  • Age 0 to 32 months (2 years and 8 months) at screening.
  • Signed informed consent, which must be obtained from each participant's parent(s) or legal guardian.
  • Parent(s)/Guardian(s) willing and able to attend all study visits and comply with all study requirements.
  • Parent(s)/Guardian(s) willing and able to comply with the routine care of the study participants according to local guidance for the management of infants and young children with ACH.
  • Able to swallow age-appropriate oral medication.
  • In participants <1 year old, be compliant with recommended vitamin D supplementation of 5 10 μg/day or higher (or as recommended by country specific guidelines).

Exclusion criteria

  • Participants who have hypochondroplasia or diagnosis of genetic condition other than ACH, or any clinical condition that can affect growth.
  • Gestational age at birth <37 weeks and/or birth weight <2500 grams.
  • Gastroesophageal reflux disease requiring prolonged treatment (>1 week) with prohibited medications.
  • Evidence of cervicomedullary compression, as defined by an Achondroplasia Foramen Magnum Score (AFMS) 4, symptomatic or asymptomatic, diagnosed during MRI done at screening or a previous MRI done at any time if the participant had not undergone decompression surgery.
  • History of fracture of a long bone or spine within 6 months prior to screening.
  • Any other significant concurrent disease or condition that, in the view of the investigator and/or sponsor, would confound assessment of efficacy or safety of infigratinib and/or would require treatment with a prohibited medication (per protocol), and/or would place the participant at high risk for poor treatment compliance or for failure to complete the study.
  • Having received or planning to receive treatment with any other investigational or approved product for the treatment of ACH or short stature, including (but not limited to) r-hGH, IGF-1, CNP analog, FGF ligand trap, or treatment targeting FGFR inhibition at any time.
  • Regular long-term (>3 weeks; more than twice/year) treatment with supraphysiologic doses of glucocorticoid therapy (ie, >15 mg/m2/day of hydrocortisone or equivalent) or treatment with glucocorticoids at anti-inflammatory doses (for over 3 weeks within 6 months of the screening visit. NOTE: Low-dose topical, inhaled, or intranasal corticosteroids are acceptable.
  • Significant abnormality in screening laboratory results,
  • Allergy or hypersensitivity to any components of the study drug.

Treatment and study plan

Infigratinib is provided as a single dose of minitablets for oral administration

Drug
  • The initial cohort dose of infigratinib will begin at the protocol-specified starting dose, with subsequent cohort escalation based on protocol specific criteria.
  • The dose and number of minitablets will be calculated based on individual participant age and weight.

Infigratinib is provided as sprinkle capsules for daily oral administration

Drug
  • The cohort dose of infigratinib will be the dose identified in the Single Ascending Dose portion for the age group.
  • The dose and number of sprinkle capsules/day will be calculated based on individual participant age and weight. Doses will be adjusted based on age and weight changes approximately every 3 months.

Infigratinib or placebo comparator is provided as sprinkle capsules for daily oral administration

Drug
  • The cohort dose of infigratinib or placebo will be the dose confirmed in the Phase 2 portion for the age group.
  • The dose and number of sprinkle capsules/day will be calculated based on individual participant age and weight. Doses will be adjusted based on age and weight changes approximately every 3 months.
