Summary

This study tests an oral drug called infigratinib in infants and children under 3 years old with achondroplasia, the most common form of dwarfism. The goal is to see if it safely improves growth and body proportions. The trial has several phases to find the right dose and then compare the drug to a placebo over time.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
infigratinib (oral drug)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a daily oral treatment to improve growth and body proportions in young children with achondroplasia.
What could go wrong
This is an early Phase 2 trial with only 77 participants, so results may not confirm benefit. Side effects are still being studied, and the drug requires daily dosing.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

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

Inclusion Criteria: * Diagnosis of ACH confirmed by genetic testing. If prospective participants had prior genetic testing, the diagnosis must be confirmed by a report from a certified laboratory, documenting the specific mutation. * Age 0 to 32 months (2 years and 8 months) at screening. * Signed informed consent, which must be obtained from each participant's parent(s) or legal guardian. * Parent(s)/Guardian(s) willing and able to attend all study visits and comply with all study requirements. * Parent(s)/Guardian(s) willing and able to comply with the routine care of the study participants according to local guidance for the management of infants and young children with ACH. * Able to swallow age-appropriate oral medication. * In participants \<1 year old, be compliant with recommended vitamin D supplementation of 5 10 μg/day or higher (or as recommended by country specific guidelines). Exclusion Criteria: * Participants who have hypochondroplasia or diagnosis of genetic condition other than ACH, or any clinical condition that can affect growth. * Gestational age at birth \<37 weeks and/or birth weight \<2500 grams. * Gastroesophageal reflux disease requiring prolonged treatment (\>1 week) with prohibited medications. * Evidence of cervicomedullary compression, as defined by an Achondroplasia Foramen Magnum Score (AFMS) 4, symptomatic or asymptomatic, diagnosed during MRI done at screening or a previous MRI done at any time if the participant had not undergone decompression surgery. * History of fracture of a long bone or spine within 6 months prior to screening. * Any other significant concurrent disease or condition that, in the view of the investigator and/or sponsor, would confound assessment of efficacy or safety of infigratinib and/or would require treatment with a prohibited medication (per protocol), and/or would place the participant at high risk for poor treatment compliance or for failure to complete the study. * Having received or planning to receive treatment with any other investigational or approved product for the treatment of ACH or short stature, including (but not limited to) r-hGH, IGF-1, CNP analog, FGF ligand trap, or treatment targeting FGFR inhibition at any time. * Regular long-term (\>3 weeks; more than twice/year) treatment with supraphysiologic doses of glucocorticoid therapy (ie, \>15 mg/m2/day of hydrocortisone or equivalent) or treatment with glucocorticoids at anti-inflammatory doses (for over 3 weeks within 6 months of the screening visit. NOTE: Low-dose topical, inhaled, or intranasal corticosteroids are acceptable. * Significant abnormality in screening laboratory results, * Allergy or hypersensitivity to any components of the study drug.
