Study of XP-8121 For the Treatment of Adult Subjects With Hypothyroidism
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a non-randomized, open-label, single arm, self-controlled study of XP-8121 (levothyroxine sodium) to determine a target dose conversion factor from stably dosed oral levothyroxine to XP-8121 (levothyroxine sodium) in patients with hypothyroidism and to assess the safety and tolerability of XP-8121(levothyroxine sodium) after once weekly subcutaneous injections. This study includes the following periods: Screening, Titration Period, and Maintenance Period. The study will conclude with an End of Maintenance Visit or Early Termination (ET) Visit.

Detailed Description
This is a non-randomized, open-label, single arm, self-controlled study of XP-8121 (levothyroxine sodium) to determine a target dose conversion factor from stably dosed oral levothyroxine to XP-8121 (levothyroxine sodium) in patients with hypothyroidism and to assess the safety and tolerability of XP-8121 (levothyroxine sodium) after once weekly subcutaneous injections. This study includes the following periods: Screening, Titration Period (2 to 8 weeks), and Maintenance Period (4 weeks). A pharmacokinetic substudy will be conducted for a subset of patients during the Maintenance Period. The study will conclude with an End of Maintenance Visit or Early Termination (ET) Visit.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Dose conversion factor [Day 29 of the Maintenance Period]
Geometric mean ratio of the weekly dose of XP-8121 to the daily dose of oral levothyroxine (aka dose conversion factor), where the XP-8121 dose corresponds to the administration immediately preceding collection of blood TSH used to determine normalization at the end of Maintenance Period
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Proportion of subjects enrolled with normalized TSH [Day 29 of the Maintenance Period]
Proportion of subjects enrolled with normalized TSH at the end of Maintenance Period
- Thyroid hormone concentrations [Day 8]
Blood thyroid hormone concentrations (total thyroxine, free thyroxine and TSH) following the first dose of XP-8121 in the Titration Period
Eligibility Criteria
Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
-
Provide written informed consent.
-
Male or female between the ages of 18 and 65 years (inclusive) at Screening, with chronic hypothyroidism and on a stable dose of oral levothyroxine (Synthroid or an FDA-approved generic equivalent to Synthroid) or, if in the pharmacokinetic substudy, Synthroid only for at least 3 months.
-
TSH within the normal range at Screening (central laboratory) and at least 3 months prior to Screening (documented by local laboratory).
-
Free thyroxine within the normal range at Screening (central laboratory).
Exclusion Criteria:
-
History of hypersensitivity to levothyroxine (any formulation).
-
Current dose of oral levothyroxine, based on body weight >2 μg/kg/day.
-
Current levothyroxine total daily dose either <50 μg or >375 μg.
-
Current use of combined thyroid treatment (i.e., Synthroid plus liothyronine or Synthroid plus Armour Thyroid) and/or any other levothyroxine aside from those used in the study.
