Study Summary

This trial is testing a new drug for children with achondroplasia who have participated in a previous study for at least six months. The new drug is designed to target fibroblast growth factor receptors 1-3. The trial will include dose escalation and expansion, as well as a pharmacokinetic substudy.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for children aged 3-11 with Achondroplasia who were part of the PROPEL study. They must be able to swallow pills, stand unassisted, and not have started puberty. Kids can't join if they've had certain treatments like growth hormones recently or have eye disorders, a history of cancer, or been on long-term steroids.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial tests different doses of Infigratinib (a drug that targets specific growth receptors) in kids with Achondroplasia to see which dose is safe and works best. It's an open-label study where everyone knows what treatment they're getting, involving both increasing the dose over time and expanding it to more patients.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Infigratinib may cause side effects such as liver issues, high phosphate levels in blood leading to muscle problems or rash, finger or toe pain/swelling due to increased blood flow there; also possible are gastrointestinal symptoms like diarrhea.

Trial Design

5Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Infigratinib 0.25 mg/kgExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Dose Escalation and PK substudy: Infigratinib is provided as minitablets in 2 strengths: 0.1 mg and 1 mg for daily oral administration. The dose and number of minitablets/day will be calculated based on individual participant weight. Doses will be adjusted based on weight changes approximately every 3 months.
Group II: Infigratinib 0.128 mg/kgExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Dose Escalation and PK substudy: Infigratinib is provided as minitablets in 2 strengths: 0.1 mg and 1 mg for daily oral administration. The dose and number of minitablets/day will be calculated based on individual participant weight. Doses will be adjusted based on weight changes approximately every 3 months. Dose Expansion: Upon identification of the recommended dose from all cohorts analyzed, an expansion cohort of 20 subjects may begin enrollment to further determine safety, tolerability, efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of the selected dose.
Group III: Infigratinib 0.064 mg/kgExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Dose Escalation and PK substudy: Infigratinib is provided as minitablets in 2 strengths: 0.1 mg and 1 mg for daily oral administration. The dose and number of minitablets/day will be calculated based on individual participant weight. Doses will be adjusted based on weight changes approximately every 3 months.
Group IV: Infigratinib 0.032 mg/kgExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Dose Escalation and PK substudy: Infigratinib is provided as minitablets in 2 strengths: 0.1 mg and 1 mg for daily oral administration. The dose and number of minitablets/day will be calculated based on individual participant weight. Doses will be adjusted based on weight changes approximately every 3 months.
Group V: Infigratinib 0.016 mg/kgExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Dose Escalation: Infigratinib is provided as minitablets in 2 strengths: 0.1 mg and 1 mg for daily oral administration. The dose and number of minitablets/day will be calculated based on individual participant weight. Doses will be adjusted based on weight changes approximately every 3 months.
