Global Safety and Efficacy Registration Study of Crinecerfont in Pediatric Participants With Classic Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAHtalyst Pediatric Study)

Phase 3
Active, not recruiting
Conditions
Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia
Interventions
Drug: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT04806451
Lead Sponsor
Neurocrine Biosciences
Brief Summary

This is a Phase 3 study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of crinecerfont versus placebo administered for 28 weeks in approximately 81 pediatric participants with classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency. The study consists of a 28-week double blind, placebo-controlled period, followed by 24 weeks of open-label treatment with crinecerfont. Subsequently, participants may elect to participate in the open-label extension (OLE) period. The duration of participation in the study is approximately 14 months for the core study and will be a variable amount of time per participant for the OLE (estimated to be approximately 3 years).

Primary Outcome Measures

Change From Baseline in Serum Androstenedione at Week 4Baseline, Week 4

Blood serum samples were collected for the analysis of serum androstenedione concentrations. Least square (LS) mean and standard error (SE) were calculated using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model.
