Summary

This study tests a daily oral medication called atumelnant in children aged 1 to 18 with classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia, a genetic condition that disrupts hormone production. The goal is to see if the drug can safely normalize hormone levels and allow patients to lower their daily steroid doses. The trial includes a placebo group and a long-term extension to monitor lasting effects.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
atumelnant (CRN04894), a daily oral tablet
What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a new treatment option that helps children with congenital adrenal hyperplasia better control their hormone levels and reduce their dependence on high-dose steroids.
What could go wrong
This is an early-to-mid-stage trial with only 153 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The drug may cause side effects or fail to show clear benefit over placebo.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: Part A and B participants are eligible to be included in the study only if all of the following criteria apply: 1. Male or female at birth, between 1 to \<18 years of chronological age at the time of signing the Informed Consent Form (ICF). 2. Have a medically confirmed diagnosis of classic CAH due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD) based on standard medically accepted criteria such as elevated 17-OHP level, confirmed CYP21A2 genetic testing, positive newborn screening with confirmatory second tier testing, or cosyntropin stimulation. 3. Participants must have an elevated morning serum A4 level \>ULN during Screening obtained prior to morning glucocorticoid (GC) administration. 4. Participants must be on a stable supraphysiologic GC replacement therapy for at least one month prior to Screening. 5. Compliance, as judged per Investigator discretion, with GC replacement and mineralocorticoid replacement (if applicable) regimen documented during the Screening Period. 6. Biochemical euthyroidism as determined by the Investigator. Part C inclusion criteria require participants to complete treatment in either Part A or Part B and in the Investigator's opinion it would benefit the participant to continue in Part C, regardless of age. Exclusion Criteria: Part A and Part B: Individuals in Part A and Part B who meet any of the following criteria will be excluded from participation in this study: 1. Diagnosis of any form of CAH other than classic 21-OHD. 2. Participants treated with other GCs within 30 days of Screening. 3. Stress dose of GC therapy within 2 weeks of start of Screening, defined as any dose above the normal maintenance dose, including but not limited to intravenous (IV) or intramuscular (IM) hydrocortisone. 4. Use of growth hormones within 1 week of start of Screening for short acting, or within 6 weeks of start of Screening for long acting. 5. Use of a corticotropin-releasing factor receptor antagonist within 14 days of Screening. 6. History of cancer excluding cured/treated dermal squamous or basal cell carcinoma or cervical carcinoma in situ. 7. Abnormal sleep/wake cycles (as determined by the Investigator). 8. Female participants who are pregnant or lactating. 9. Participants who have been dosed with an investigational drug (including atumelnant) in any prior clinical study within 60 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to the first dose. 10. Individuals in Part C who do not meet the Part C Inclusion Criteria.
