Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of ALLN-177 to reduce urinary oxalate excretion in patients with recurring kidney stones and enteric or idiopathic hyperoxaluria.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 2

Detailed Description

A multi-center, open-label, single arm study to evaluate the safety and the effect of ALLN-177 to reduce urinary oxalate excretion in recurrent kidney stone formers with associated hyperoxaluria. The study design includes a screening period to confirm eligibility, followed by a 3-day baseline period, 4-day open label treatment period with ALLN-177 and 4-day follow up period.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: ALLN-177

Recurrent Calcium Oxalate Stone Formers with Hyperoxaluria Subjects with Enteric or Idiopathic hyperoxaluria Dosing: 5 capsules of ALLN-177 orally (p.o.) up to 3 times daily (TID) with meals for 4 consecutive days.

Drug: ALLN-177
ALLN-177 is orally administered oxalate decarboxylase (OxDc). The goal of oral therapy with ALLN-177 is to enzymatically degrade both dietary oxalate and endogenously produced oxalate secreted in the gastrointestinal tract resulting in decreased absorption and reduced urinary oxalate excretion.
Other Names:
  • Oxalate degrading enzyme
  • Oxalate decarboxylase
  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Change From Baseline Period to Treatment Period 24-hour Urinary Oxalate Excretion [7 days]

      Change from Baseline is defined as Baseline value (average of Days 2 and 3) minus ALLN-177 treatment value (mean of Days 5, 6, and 7).

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Percent Change From Baseline Period to Treatment Period in 24-hour Urinary Oxalate Excretion [7 days]

      Percent Change from Baseline is defined as baseline value (average of Days 2 and 3) minus ALLN-177 treatment value (mean of Days 5, 6, and 7) divided by baseline value times 100%
