ABO-101 for Primary Hyperoxaluria
(redePHine Trial)
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
This trial tests a new treatment called ABO-101, a gene therapy for individuals with primary hyperoxaluria type 1 (PH1), a rare condition that causes excessive oxalate production and kidney problems. Initially, the study will evaluate different doses in adults to determine the optimal amount, then apply that dose in children. Participants will then be monitored over an extended period to assess the treatment's effects. Individuals diagnosed with PH1 and experiencing kidney issues due to excess oxalate may be suitable candidates for this study. As a Phase 1 trial, the research aims to understand how the treatment works in people, offering participants the chance to be among the first to receive this new therapy.
Will I have to stop taking my current medications?
The trial protocol does not specify whether you need to stop taking your current medications. However, if you are currently using or have used urinary oxalate lowering RNA interference (RNAi) or siRNA therapy in the past 24 months, you would not be eligible to participate.
Is there any evidence suggesting that ABO-101 is likely to be safe for humans?
A previous study found that ABO-101 was well tolerated by participants, with no serious side effects or dose-related problems in the 28 days following treatment. This indicates that, so far, the treatment has been safe for recipients. As the trial is in its early stages, this is a promising sign for its safety in humans.12345
Why do researchers think this study treatment might be promising?
Researchers are excited about ABO-101 for treating Primary Hyperoxaluria because it operates differently from current treatments, which typically involve dietary changes and medications to reduce oxalate levels. ABO-101 is a gene therapy that targets the root cause by delivering a functional copy of the gene missing or malfunctioning in patients with this condition. This innovative approach has the potential to address the disease at its genetic source, offering a more effective and long-lasting solution than existing options.
What evidence suggests that ABO-101 might be an effective treatment for primary hyperoxaluria?
Research has shown that ABO-101 has promising results in early studies. In tests with animals similar to humans, ABO-101 proved effective and safe without causing harmful effects. This gene-editing treatment aims to help people with primary hyperoxaluria type 1 (PH1), a condition where the body produces excessive oxalate, potentially leading to kidney issues. Early results suggest that ABO-101 may successfully alter genes linked to this condition, possibly reducing oxalate levels. While research in humans continues, early signs of safety and effectiveness are positive.12367

Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
The redePHine study is for individuals with primary hyperoxaluria type 1 (PH1), a rare condition leading to kidney stones. Adults will first receive varying doses to find the best one, then children will be treated with that dose. Participants must meet certain health criteria not specified here.Inclusion Criteria
