Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 to 65 with a confirmed diagnosis of X-linked hypophosphatemia and specific biochemical markers indicating the severity of their condition.

Probably not a fit

Patients with normal serum phosphorus levels or those outside the specified age range may not benefit from this study.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This is a Phase 1/2, multicenter, open-label, dose-escalation study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of KK8123 in adults diagnosed with X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH). The study includes a Screening Period of up to 28 days, followed by a Dose Escalation Period and an optional Extension Period. Participants will be monitored for their response to the treatment over a total observation period of 32 to 44 weeks. The study aims to gather critical data on the effects of KK8123 on this rare bone disease.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could significantly improve bone health and quality of life for patients with X-linked hypophosphatemia.

How similar studies have gone: While this approach is novel for X-linked hypophosphatemia, similar studies targeting rare metabolic bone diseases have shown promising results.

  2. Body weight is at least 40 kg.
  3. Diagnosed with XLH (as documented by the investigator).
  4. Have a value of fasting serum phosphorus \< 2.5 mg/dL (0.81 mmol/L) at Screening.
  5. Have a value of renal TmP/GFR \< 2.5 mg/dL (0.81 mmol/L) at Screening.
  6. eGFR ≥ 60 mL/min (using the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation \[Inker, 2021\]) at Screening.
  7. Have a corrected serum calcium level \< 10.8 mg/dL (2.7 mmol/L) at Screening.
  8. Provide a signed ICF.
  9. Agree not to change diet and exercise regimen from one week prior to dosing to end of study.
  10. Have a negative pregnancy test at Screening and be willing to have additional pregnancy tests during the study (female participants only).
  11. If taking chronic pain medications (including narcotic pain medications/opioids), must be on a stable regimen for at least 21 days prior to the Screening visit, and be willing to maintain medications at the same stable dose(s) and schedule throughout the clinical trial. The dose must not exceed 60 mg oral morphine equivalents/day.
  12. Be willing to use a method of contraception following local country guidelines while participating in the study and for 30 weeks after the last dose (all sexually active participants of childbearing potential).

      Women of non-childbearing potential are defined as permanently sterile (i.e., due to tubal ligation at least one year before Screening, hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy) or postmenopausal (defined as at least 12 months post cessation of menses without an alternative medical cause).

      Postmenopausal status of female participants will be confirmed with a Screening serum follicle-stimulating hormone level \>40 mIU/mL.
  13. Must, in the opinion of the investigator, be willing and able to complete all aspects of the study, adhere to the study visit schedule and comply with the assessments.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Part 1: Exclusion Criteria:

  1. For XLH participants previously treated with the applicable prior therapy, use within the protocol defined washout period prior to ICF signature.
  2. Prior history of positive test for human immunodeficiency virus antibody, positive test for hepatitis B surface antigen, and/or hepatitis C virus antibody at Screening.
  3. History of hypersensitivity to any ingredient of any therapeutic monoclonal antibody.
  4. Have an active infection.

  12. Use of pharmacologically active vitamin D, its metabolites or analogs, oral phosphate for treatment of XLH, aluminum hydroxide antacids, acetazolamide, thiazide diuretics, and/or systemic corticosteroids within 14 days prior to Screening. If the participant takes any of these medications, a washout period of 14 days will be required after signing the ICF and before any other screeening assessments begin.
