History of Changes

Purpose

Use of PTH (1-84) a recombinant hormone in 25 µg or 50 µg doses for the treatment of adults with hypoparathyroidism. The use of PTH (1-84) should result in a decrease of calcium and vitamin D supplements.

Study Design:	Allocation: Randomized Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment Masking: Double Blind (Subject, Caregiver, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor) Primary Purpose: Treatment
Official Title:	A Randomized, Dose-blinded Study to Investigate the Safety and Efficacy of NPSP558, a Recombinant Human Parathyroid Hormone [rhPTH(1-84)], at Fixed Doses of 25 µg and 50 µg for the Treatment of Adults With Hypoparathyroidism

Primary Outcome Measures:

A reduction in oral calcium supplementation to ≤ 500 mg/day, a reduction in calcitriol dose to ≤ 0.25 µg/day, and an albumin-corrected total serum calcium level between 7.5 mg/dL and the upper limit of normal. [ Time Frame: 8 Weeks of Dosing ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:

A ≥ 50% reduction from baseline in oral calcium supplementation, a ≥ 50% reduction from baseline in oral calcitriol supplementation and, an albumin-corrected total serum calcium concentration normalized or maintained compared to baseline value [ Time Frame: 8 Weeks of Dosing ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Enrollment:	47
Study Start Date:	January 2011
Study Completion Date:	November 2011
Primary Completion Date:	September 2011 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)

Arms	Assigned Interventions
Experimental: 25 µg dose 25 µg	Drug: NPSP558 All patients will inject NPSP558 25 or 50 µg SC QD into alternating thighs in the morning via a multidose injection pen device. Other Name: RELAY
Experimental: 50 µg dose 50 µg	Drug: NPSP558 All patients will inject NPSP558 25 or 50 µg SC QD into alternating thighs in the morning via a multidose injection pen device. Other Name: RELAY

Detailed Description:

Patients with a history of Hypoparathyroidism will be randomized to receive study drug for 8 weeks, which will be injected daily in either thigh. During that time they will be monitored for safety (specifically calcium levels in blood or urine). In addition, the patients' intake of Vitamin D and Calcium will be measured.

Eligibility

Ages Eligible for Study:	18 Years to 85 Years
Genders Eligible for Study:	Both
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:	No

Criteria

Main Inclusion Criteria:

Previously completed 24 weeks of therapy and 4 weeks of follow-up in the REPLACE study
With regard to female patients: women who are postmenopausal or willing to use two medically acceptable methods of contraception for the duration of the study with pregnancy testing conducted at every scheduled office visit
Total serum calcium ≤ ULN based on local laboratory results prior to randomization
Serum 25(OH) vitamin D ≤ 1.5 times the ULN within approximately 8 weeks prior to randomization

Main Exclusion Criteria:

Any disease or condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, has a high probability of precluding the patient from completing the study or being able to appropriately comply with study requirements
Use of raloxifene hydrochloride or intravenous (IV) bisphosphonates since the end of participation in the REPLACE trial
Chronic (ie, ≥ 1 month exposure) use of systemic corticosteroids, oral bisphosphonates, calcitonin, fluoride tablets, or cinacalcet hydrochloride
Pregnant or lactating women
Any condition that would, in the investigator's opinion in consultation with the sponsor, preclude the safe use of PTH
Use of any experimental drug other than NPSP558 within 3 months of baseline.
