CDZ173 for Activated PI3Kdelta Syndrome
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
This trial explores the long-term effects of CDZ173, a PI3Kdelta inhibitor, for individuals with activated PI3Kdelta syndrome (APDS). The goal is to assess the safety and effectiveness of CDZ173 over time for those who participated in a previous related study or have used similar treatments. This trial suits patients with a specific genetic mutation linked to APDS who have faced frequent infections or other immune system issues. Participants should have been part of a previous study or have tried other PI3Kdelta inhibitors. As a Phase 2, Phase 3 trial, this research measures the treatment's effectiveness in an initial, smaller group and represents the final step before FDA approval, offering participants a chance to contribute to the development of a potentially groundbreaking therapy.
Do I have to stop taking my current medications for the trial?
The trial information does not specify if you need to stop taking your current medications. It's best to discuss this with the trial team or your doctor.
Is there any evidence suggesting that CDZ173 is likely to be safe for humans?
Research has shown that CDZ173, a treatment for activated PI3Kδ syndrome (APDS), is generally well-tolerated by patients. In studies, individuals with APDS who took CDZ173 experienced fewer side effects compared to those who did not. Reports indicate that CDZ173 is unlikely to cause serious side effects. While some patients experienced mild issues, these were not severe enough to discontinue treatment. This suggests that CDZ173 is relatively safe for long-term use in individuals with this genetic condition.12345
Why are researchers excited about this possible treatment for activated PI3Kdelta syndrome?
Unlike standard treatments for Activated PI3Kdelta Syndrome, which often include broad immunosuppressants, CDZ173 specifically targets the PI3Kdelta pathway. This precision targeting helps to directly address the underlying cause of the syndrome rather than just managing symptoms. Researchers are excited about CDZ173 because it offers a more focused approach with the potential for fewer side effects and improved efficacy. Additionally, its once-daily oral administration makes it convenient for patients compared to some existing therapies that might require more complex dosing regimens.
What evidence suggests that CDZ173 might be an effective treatment for APDS?
Research has shown that CDZ173, also known as leniolisib, may help treat Activated PI3Kdelta Syndrome (APDS). Studies have found that it can lower the high rates of infections often seen in people with this condition. Additionally, CDZ173 reduces lymphadenopathy, decreasing swelling in the lymph nodes. Those who used this treatment experienced fewer respiratory infections and changes in their blood's immune markers. Overall, leniolisib appears well tolerated and offers important benefits for individuals with APDS.23467
Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
This trial is for patients with APDS/PASLI, a genetic condition causing enlarged lymph nodes and immune system issues. Participants must have been in the CCDZ173X2201 study or treated with other PI3Kδ inhibitors, understand the study requirements, and provide informed consent.Inclusion Criteria
