Intravenous ACP-501 for Familial LCAT Deficiency (rhLCAT)

This primary objective of the study was to use ACP-501 (recombinant LCAT - rhLCAT) as an Expanded Access Protocol in order for one named subject with Familial LCAT Deficiency (FLD) with the hope of slowing or preventing the progression of renal dysfunction and eliminating the need for dialysis. This was a first-in-human study of ACP-501 (rhLCAT) in a subject with FLD. The safety and tolerability of rhLCAT, was assessed after multiple infusions. The pharmacokinetics (PK) of rhLCAT and its effect on the pharmacodynamics (PD) of HDL-C and HDL subpopulations was also be assessed. The duration of the PK and PD parameters will inform future multiple dose studies with respect to dose (mg/kg) and dosing interval. The current protocol completed the primary objection and has shifted to the secondary analysis of samples that were collected. FLD is an extremely rare generic disorders and there are too few subjects to design additional phase 1 trials and these longitudinal samples demonstrating the appearance of normal HDL along with possible biomarkers will be helpful and can help guide the design of a small definitive phase II/II trial.
