What this Trial Is About
Researchers are evaluating the safety, tolerability, and potentially effective doses of TYRA-300, a fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor, in children aged 3 to 10 years with achondroplasia who have open growth plates. This Phase 2, multicenter, open-label dose-escalation study includes three groups of children: the Sentinel Safety Cohort, Cohort 1, and Cohort 2. The study aims to understand how TYRA-300 affects growth velocity and related measurements over time. Participants receive TYRA-300 as sprinkle capsules or mini-tablets, with doses calculated based on each child's weight. Weight adjustments occur every three months to ensure appropriate dosing. The study features multiple dosing levels from 0.125 mg/kg up to 0.50 mg/kg, with dose escalations based on specific protocol criteria. The study spans up to 12 months for primary outcomes, with additional assessments at 6 and 12 months for secondary growth and pharmacokinetic measures. Throughout the study, children will undergo regular evaluations including growth measurements such as height, arm length, tibial and femur length, and arm span proportionality. Safety is monitored by tracking treatment-related adverse events according to established criteria. Pharmacokinetic assessments will measure how the drug is absorbed and processed. The total participation duration includes up to one year of treatment and observation to assess changes in growth and safety outcomes under medical supervision.
