Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of RTX-134 in adult patients with PKU.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 1

Detailed Description

This is a Phase 1b first-in-human trial in adult subjects with PKU. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of RTX-134 following intravenous administration of a single dose. RTX-134 consists of allogeneic human red cells expressing the AvPAL (Anabaena variabilis phenylalanine ammonia lyase) gene inside the cell. The trial is designed to determine a preliminary dose and inform a dosing schedule that is deemed safe, tolerable, and potentially effective. Four dose levels are planned, additional dose levels may be explored. Following administration, subjects will be monitored until 28 days after last detection of RTX-134. Detection of RTX-134 will be evaluated using multiple pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) assessments including measurement of trans-cinnamic acid (tCA).

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: RTX-134

Escalating doses of RTX-134 will be administered by intravenous infusion one time

Drug: RTX-134
RTX-134 is a cellular therapy containing AvPAL

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of RTX-134 as measured by frequency of treatment emergent adverse events [Baseline to 28 days after last detection of RTX-134]

  2. To correlate dose with percent reduction in serum phenylalanine levels relative to baseline [Baseline to 28 days after last detection of RTX-134]

  3. To determine a preliminary dose to achieve serum phenylalanine levels < 600 µmol/L [Baseline to 28 days after last detection of RTX-134]

  4. To determine a preliminary dose to achieve serum phenylalanine levels < 360 µmol/L [Baseline to 28 days after last detection of RTX-134]

  5. To evaluate the pharmacokinetics of RTX-134 as measured by presence of AvPal expressing red cells, AvPAL protein in red cells and serum, and AvPAL enzymatic activity. [Baseline to 28 days after last detection of RTX-134]
