Trial Outcomes & Findings for Androgen Reduction in Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia, Phase 1 (NCT NCT02574910)

NCT ID: NCT02574910

Last Updated: 2025-11-04

Results Overview

The original primary endpoint was the dose of abiraterone acetate that normalized androstenedione to age-appropriate levels in 7/8 subjects after 7 days of treatment. However, an insufficient number of participants was enrolled to evaluate the primary endpoint. Therefore, we have instead presented the number of participants at each dose level who did normalize androstenedione to age-appropriate levels.

Measure
Abiraterone acetate 1 mg/kg/d
Abiraterone acetate will be administered orally at a daily dose of 1 mg/kg for 7 days in addition to the standard of care treatment of hydrocortisone and fludrocortisone. Abiraterone acetate: This is a dose escalation study. Up to 3 successive cohorts of 8 subjects each will receive 7 days of 1, 2 or 4 mg/kg/d of abiraterone acetate, until 7/8 subjects have met the desired endpoint.
Abiraterone acetate 2 mg/kg/d
If the 1 mg/kg/d dosing does not result in androstenedione level normalization, abiraterone acetate will be administered orally at a daily dose of 2 mg/kg for 7 days in addition to the standard of care treatment of hydrocortisone and fludrocortisone. Abiraterone acetate: This is a dose escalation study. Up to 3 successive cohorts of 8 subjects each will receive 7 days of 1, 2 or 4 mg/kg/d of abiraterone acetate, until 7/8 subjects have met the desired endpoint.
Abiraterone acetate 4 mg/kg/d
If the 2 mg/kg/d dosing does not result in androstenedione level normalization, abiraterone acetate will be administered orally at a daily dose of 4 mg/kg for 7 days in addition to the standard of care treatment of hydrocortisone and fludrocortisone. Abiraterone acetate: This is a dose escalation study. Up to 3 successive cohorts of 8 subjects each will receive 7 days of 1, 2 or 4 mg/kg/d of abiraterone acetate, until 7/8 subjects have met the desired endpoint.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 7 days

Population: No subjects enrolled at 4 mg/kg/d

The original primary endpoint was the dose of abiraterone acetate that normalized androstenedione to age-appropriate levels in 7/8 subjects after 7 days of treatment. However, an insufficient number of participants was enrolled to evaluate the primary endpoint. Therefore, we have instead presented the number of participants at each dose level who did normalize androstenedione to age-appropriate levels.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 7 days

Population: Due to early termination of this study and incomplete enrollment, the collected data are incomplete and limited. These collected samples will never be analyzed in the future. Due to quality issues with the resulting of 17-hydroxyprogestoerone, there is one per-protocol patient to report this result on.

Final lab results at Screening and V6. This outcome is not pre-specified in the protocol and was inadvertently added at the time of registration.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 7 days

Population: The values for this outcome measurement were not collected and we have no data relating to PK to report because the collected samples were not processed for this outcome measure and will never be processed in the future as well.

Sparse pharmacokinetic (PK) will be derived from peak and trough abiraterone levels.

OTHER_PRE_SPECIFIED outcome

Timeframe: 7 days

Population: Due to early termination of this study and incomplete enrollment, the collected data are incomplete and limited, it is not considered valid to perform this outcome measure assessment and therefore unable to analyze and report it.

Final lab results at Screening and V6. This was erroneously listed as a secondary outcome in PRS. We have changed the outcome measure type to "Other pre-specified." .

OTHER_PRE_SPECIFIED outcome

Timeframe: 7 days

Population: No participants enrolled at the 4 mg/kg/d level.

Safety monitoring in Phase 1 will include liver function tests (AST, Alanine Aminotransferease (ALT), bilirubin) and possible mineralocorticoid effects (blood pressure, plasma renin).
