NCT06953505
The goal of this observational study is to learn if people with certain ammonia metabolism disorders will measure their ammonia levels at home. The main question it aims to answer is: • Will participants measure their ammonia every day? Participants will be asked to: * Attend three in-person study visits at the clinic. * Measure temperature, heart rate, and blood oxygen every day. * Complete a short survey every day. * Measure ammonia every day.
NCT06805695
This LTFU is being conducted to assess long-term safety and durability of response in participants dosed with IP in a parent protocol, and to collect longitudinal natural history in enrolled but not dosed participants who also participated in a parent protocol.
NCT06664840
The investigators propose to develop and validate MyRareDiet® (MRD) to address an unmet need in the inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) population to assist with dietary management designed to increase adherence and compliance to treatment guidelines, while facilitating the collection of dietary data from individuals with IEM for research purposes.
NCT01257737
This was an open-label, long-term safety study of HPN-100 (RAVICTI; glycerol phenylbutyrate) in participants with a urea cycle disorder (UCD) who completed the safety extensions of HPN-100-005 (NCT00947544; HPN-100-005SE), HPN-100-006 (NCT00947297; HPN-100-007), or HPN-100-012 (NCT01347073; HPN-100-012SE). The initial studies were 1- to 2-week crossover studies, and their associated safety extensions were 12-month, open-label studies. All participants who completed the initial studies were eligible to enroll in the associated safety extension studies, and new participants were also permitted to enroll directly into the safety extension studies.
NCT00947544
Protocol HPN-100-005 was the first study of HPN-100 in pediatric subjects with urea cycle disorders (UCDs) and was a fixed-sequence, open-label, switch over study of HPN-100 with a long-term (12 month) safety extension designed to assess the safety of HPN-100 and to prospectively assess its ability to control blood ammonia as compared with Sodium Phenylbutyrate (NaPBA). Upon DSMB review of the first ten subjects who completed the switch over part of the study, and with DSMB approval, up to an additional 20 subjects were enrolled into the safety extension part of the study. HPN-100 is a triglyceride that has a similar mechanism of action as NaPBA. It is a liquid with minimal taste and odor. Three teaspoons of HPN-100 (\~17.4mL) delivers an equivalent amount of PBA to 40 tablets of NaPBA.
NCT00947297
This was a long-term safety study HPN-100 in urea cycle disorder (UCD) subjects. Subjects were assessed regularly for safety and control of their venous ammonia. Hyperammonemic events were characterized with respect to contributing factors, such as intercurrent illness, diet, and noncompliance with medication.
NCT00992459
This was a randomized, active-controlled, double-blind, cross-over study designed to enroll subjects with UCDs who are being treated with NaPBA.
NCT02246218
This is an open-label study consisting of a transition period to RAVICTI, followed by a safety extension period for at least 6 months and up to 24 months of treatment with RAVICTI, depending on age at enrollment. It is designed to capture information important for evaluating safety, pharmacokinetics and efficacy in young children. Subjects who are followed by or referred to the Investigator for management of their UCD. Subjects eligible for this study will include patients ranging from newborn to \< 2 years of age with either a diagnosed or clinically suspected UCD.
NCT05330039
Study around children with inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) and their healthy siblings. Collection of stool and urine to assess contribution of microbiota to disease severity.
NCT04602325
Ammonia is a waste product of protein and amino acid catabolism and is also a potent neurotoxin. High blood ammonia levels on the brain can manifest as cytotoxic brain edema and vascular compromise leading to intellectual and developmental disabilities. The following aims are proposed: Aim 1 of this study will be to determine the chronology of biomarkers of brain injury in response to a hyperammonemic (HA) brain insult in patients with an inherited hyperammonemic disorder. Aim 2 will be to determine if S100B, NSE, and UCHL1 are altered in patients with two other inborn errors of metabolism, Maple Syrup Urine Disease (MSUD) and Glutaric Acidemia (GA1).
NCT03064048
This is a study involving a dietary supplement. Patients with argininosuccinate lyase deficiency (ASLD) will be randomly assigned to receive either a nitric oxide dietary supplement or placebo for 24 weeks, and then crossed-over to receive the other treatment for 24 weeks. The investigators will assess the effects of the supplement in domains of general cognition, memory, executive functioning, and fine motor functioning in individuals with ASLD.

UNLOCKED: A Phase 2 Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of KB195 in Subjects with a Urea Cycle Disorder with Inadequate Control on Standard of Care
NCT05076318
This project will examine the dysregulation of the urea cycle in patients with terminal uremia using a validated method named "Functional Hepatic Nitrogen Clearance"
NCT03884959
This is a phase2, prospective, open label study designed to investigate the safety and efficacy of several infusions of HepaStem. This study will include 5 pediatric Urea Cycle Disorder (UCD) patients under 12 years old. Its assessment includes all safety parameters and an efficacy assessment based on 13C tracer tests, ammonia, medication and diet changes. HepaStem will be administered in addition to the conventional UCD treatments.
NCT01765283
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and to appraise the efficacy of one cycle of Hepastem (Heterologous Human Adult Liver-derived Progenitor Cells, HHALPC) infusions in paediatric patients suffering from CN or UCD. The study duration: 12 months starting from the day of treatment: 6 months active surveillance and 6 months observation post-infusion.
NCT02311283
The purpose of this study is to determine if patients participating in "The Longitudinal Study of Urea Cycle Disorders" are different than participants in the Urea Cycles Disorders Consortium (UCDC) Rare Diseases Clinical Research Network (RDCRN) Contact Registry and to determine if patients are a good source of medical information.
NCT01541722
The primary purpose of the proposed study is to characterize the oxidative stress and inflammatory cytokine status in UCD during baseline and decompensated states.
NCT00472732
Urea cycle disorders (UCDs) are a group of rare inherited metabolism disorders. The purpose of this study is to evaluate how UCD-related neurologic injuries affect adults with one of the most common types of UCD.
NCT01624311
This is a pilot study which will test the safety and feasibility of hypothermia treatment as adjunct therapy to conventional treatment of hyperammonemic encephalopathy (HAE) in neonates versus conventional treatment (dialysis, nutritional therapy, and ammonia scavenging drugs) only. The endpoint of the pilot study will be reached when either 24 patients have been enrolled and no serious adverse events were observed, when no patient has been enrolled in 5 years, or when serious adverse events occur which are clearly linked to the use of hypothermia. These would be serious complications not seen in patients on conventional therapy (dialysis , nutritional therapy, ammonia scavenging drugs) for HAE.
NCT01002469
In this short-term study a method for the evaluation of the metabolic competency of the urea cycle in vivo will be assessed. In order to monitor the efficacy of new treatment options for patients with urea cycle disorders and to monitor the severity of the disease, a reliable and safe quantitative method for the measurement of the urea cycle flux is required. Urea synthesis will be evaluated by administering sodium \[1-13C\]-acetate and measuring subsequent incorporation of \[13C\] label from Na-acetate into urea in healthy volunteers and asymptomatic subjects genetically disposed to urea cycle disorders.
