Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva clinical trials at University of California Health

4 in progress, 2 open to eligible people

Showing trials for

  • Andecaliximab in Participants With Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP)

    open to eligible people ages 2 years and up

    This study is researching an experimental drug called andecaliximab. The study will include pediatric and adult patients with fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP). The study will evaluate how safe and effective andecaliximab is in patients with FOP. The study is looking at several research questions, including: - Safety of andecaliximab in participants with FOP - Whether andecaliximab reduces the number of new heterotopic bone lesions (Heterotopic Ossification; HO) - Whether andecaliximab reduces the number or severity of flare-ups - Pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD): How much study drug is in your blood at different times and its impact on blood biomarker(s) - Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drug (which could make the drug less effective or could lead to side effects)

  • Observational Pre-post Study to Observe if the Off Label Use of Anti-IL1 Therapies, Such as Anakinra or Canakinumab, Can Block ACVR1-induced Flare Activity and Heterotopic Ossification in FOP

    open to eligible people ages 6-17

    This is an observational pre-post study to observe if the off label use of anti-IL1 therapies, such as anakinra or canakinumab, can block ACVR1-induced flare activity and heterotopic ossification in FOP. It will also generate key tools and preliminary data that are needed to design a future Phase II study. This study specifically focuses on patients with severe FOP who are being considered by their medical team for rescue therapy with anti-IL1 therapy. Preliminary data suggests patients experience significant decreases in flare frequency when taking anti-IL1 therapy, but other measures of efficacy remain unassessed, such as changes in heterotopic ossification formation, changes in pain medication use, and changes in functionality.

  • Garetosmab Versus Placebo Administered Intravenously (IV) in Adult Participants With Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP)

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    This study is researching an experimental drug called garetosmab. The study is focused on adult patients with fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP). The aim of the study is to see how safe and effective the study drug is in patients with FOP. The study is looking at several other research questions, including: - What side effects may happen from receiving the study drug - How much study drug is in the blood at different times - Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drug (which could make the drug less effective or could lead to side effects)

  • 2 Dosage Regimens of Oral Fidrisertib (IPN60130) for the Treatment of Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP).

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP) is a rare, severely disabling disease characterized by the presence of bone in soft tissue where bone normally does not exist, known as Heterotopic Ossification (HO). It is often associated with painful, recurrent episodes of soft tissue swelling (flare-ups) that lead to abnormal stiffening and immobility (ankyloses) of major joints with cumulative and irreversible loss of movement and disability. This study will evaluate the efficacy of 2 dosing regimens of IPN60130 in inhibiting new HO volume compared with placebo (a dummy treatment) in adult and paediatric participants with FOP. It will be assessed by a scan (provides internal images of the body) called low dose Whole Body Computed Tomography (WBCT), excluding head. Adults and participants 5 years of age or older are also eligible for a sub study to evaluate HO lesions assessed by another type of scan, Fluorine-18-labelled natrium fluoride Positron Emission Tomography-Computed Tomography ([18F]NaF PET-CT ).
