Sirolimus Effect on Hypertrophic Syndromes Related Gene PIK3CA

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Segmental Overgrowth Disorders Due to PIK3CA
Registration Number
NCT02443818
Lead Sponsor
Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Dijon
Brief Summary

It was found that people who have an excessive growth in one or more parts of their body and normal growth in other parts, may have a change in genes responsible for controlling cell growth. This genetic discovery identified a possible treatment for this overgrowth, called Sirolimus.

This is a pilot study, which help the investigators prepare a larger international study, which will aim to determine whether a treatment based Sirolimus is able to stop the excessive growth of one or more parties of their body in people who carry a genetic change in the PIK3CA gene (phosphatidylinosilol-3-kinase encoded by the gene PIK3CA).

Detailed Description

The duration of participation is 15 months:

* Visit screening: blood test, pre-clinical evaluation, urine collection and chest X-ray.

* First 6 months: participants will have their overgrowth monitored. This step includes 2 visits taking place at the University Hospital of Dijon: complete clinical evaluation, MRI of the body part by the overgrowth and Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA).

* Next 6 months: participants will take Sirolimus. This step includes 2 visits (4 and 13 weeks after the start of treatment at local hospital): blood test, urine collection and clinical evaluation.

and 1 end of study visit after 6 months of treatment taking place at the University Hospital of Dijon: blood test, complete clinical evaluation, urine collection, MRI and DXA.

Participants will have several blood and urine tests between visits (1 and 2 weeks after the start of treatment at a local laboratory).
