Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

The annual rate of decline in eGFR in participants with PH1
Annual change from baseline

To evaluate the effect of DCR PHXC on estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in participants with PH1

Percent Change From Baseline to Month 6 in Spot Urinary Oxalate-to-creatinine Ratio in PH1, PH2, or PH3 Participant Subgroups
Baseline (Week 0), Month 6

This outcome measure reported percent change from baseline to Month 6 in spot urinary oxalate-to-creatinine ratio in pediatric participants (birth to 11 years of age) with genetically confirmed primary hyperoxaluria type 1 (PH1), primary hyperoxaluria type 2 (PH2), or primary hyperoxaluria type 3 (PH3) subgroups.

Absolute Change From Baseline to Month 6 in Spot Urinary Oxalate-to-creatinine Ratio in PH1, PH2, or PH3 Participant Subgroups
Baseline (Week 0), Month 6

This outcome measure reported absolute change from baseline to Month 6 in spot urinary oxalate-to-creatinine ratio in pediatric participants (birth to 11 years of age) with genetically confirmed PH1, PH2, or PH3 subgroups.

Safety: Incidence of Events
180 days

To assess the efficacy of DCR-PHXC in lowering Pox in participants with PH1 and severe renal impairment, with or without hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis.

AUC From Day 90 To Day 180, Based on Percent Change From Baseline in 24-Hour Uox
From Day 90 to 180

The AUC of 24-hour urinary oxalate (Uox) from Day 90 to Day 180, based on percent change from baseline, was compared between the active treatment group and placebo group. A multiple imputation approach was used to handle missing Uox data and then calculate the AUC.

Frequently asked questions about DCR-PHXC

What is DCR-PHXC used for?

DCR-PHXC is being developed for primary hyperoxaluria, including primary hyperoxaluria type 1 and type 3. It is an investigational small molecule from Novo Nordisk A/S, studied in nephrology across placebo-controlled trials that have enrolled 138 participants in total.

Who makes DCR-PHXC?

DCR-PHXC is developed by Novo Nordisk A/S, which trades under the ticker NVO. The company is running the clinical program for the drug in primary hyperoxaluria, spanning phase 1, phase 2 and phase 3 studies.

What phase is DCR-PHXC in?

DCR-PHXC is in clinical development, with trials across phase 1, phase 2 and phase 3. It is investigational and has not been approved. Three trials are listed, two currently active and one completed, with 138 participants enrolled overall.

What clinical trials is DCR-PHXC in?

DCR-PHXC trials include NCT04580420, a recruiting phase 2 study in primary hyperoxaluria type 1 with end stage renal disease; NCT04555486, a completed phase 1 study in type 3; NCT04042402, an active long term extension; and NCT03847909, a completed phase 2 study.

Is DCR-PHXC studied in children?

Yes. Two DCR-PHXC trials enroll participants aged 6 years and older: the completed phase 1 study NCT04555486 in primary hyperoxaluria type 3, and the completed phase 2 study NCT03847909 in primary hyperoxaluria type 1 and type 2. Both are open to all sexes.
