EU CTIS ID: 2024-515186-33-00

What this study is testing

To assess the effectivity of treatment with AZD0530 on HO formation

  • Therapeutic exploratory (Phase II)

A plain-language read of the study's public EU CTIS listing. The study team confirms the details.

Who can take part

You may be able to join if

  • Male or female aged 18-65 with a clinical diagnosis of FOP at screening, including congenital malformation of the great toes and a history of spontaneous or injury-induced heterotopic ossification (HO), and have a confirmed classic-like FOP phenotype by the documentation of an ACVR1R206H/+or variant genomic sequence. Female participants who are women of child-bearing potential will be required to use a highly effective method of contraception as defined in section 5.4, in combination with a condom or diaphragm or cervical/vault caps with spermicidal foam/gel/film/suppository), from the time of enrolment until 4 weeks after final dose of study drug, unless practicing true sexual abstinence as defined in section 5.4. Male participants will be required to avoid procreative sexual intercourse with women of child-bearing potential from time of enrollment until 4 weeks after final dose of study drug through use of highly effective contraceptive methods. Male participants with a pregnant female partner will be required to use a condom for the duration of the study and for 4 weeks final dose of study drug. Male study participants will not be permitted to donate sperm for from the time of enrolment and until 4 weeks after final dose of study drug.
  • Participants will have to be able to understand and complete study and willing to sign informed consent (IC). They have to be able to attend and comply with the study visits and related activities, adhere to all study-related restrictions, and able to undergo pro-cedures such as PET and CT imaging.

You likely can't join if

  • Not willing to strictly adhere to the reproductive restrictions as defined in section 5.4
  • Neutropenia defined as an absolute neutrophil count of <1,500/μl,
  • Thrombocytopenia defined as platelet count <100 × 103/μl,
  • Current blood clotting or bleeding disorder, or significantly abnormal INR-prothrombin time or partial thromboplastin time at screening, or clinically significant abnormalities in other screening laboratories, including significant abnormalities in vitamin B12 or thyroid function tests would be cause for exclusion.
  • Abnormal liver function test results defined as aspartate aminotransferase (AST) >2.0 x upper limit of normal (ULN); alanine aminotransferase (ALT) >2.0 x ULN; and / or total bilirubin >1.5 x ULN;
  • Known allergy or intolerance to AZD0530 or any excipients used in the investigational medicinal products.
