New hope for rare kidney disease: drug targets oxalate buildup in severe cases

NCT ID NCT04580420

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This phase 2 study tests a drug called nedosiran (DCR-PHXC) in 28 people with primary hyperoxaluria type 1 (PH1) who have severe kidney impairment, with or without dialysis. The goal is to see if the drug safely lowers plasma oxalate levels, which can cause kidney stones and damage. The trial is currently only enrolling children under 6 years old.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
nedosiran (DCR-PHXC)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a treatment to lower harmful oxalate levels in patients with PH1 and severe kidney problems, potentially reducing complications.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial with only 28 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The drug may not work well in patients on dialysis, and safety risks are still being studied.
