Tricaprilin Infantile Spasms Pilot Study
A Phase I Open-Label Pilot Study to Investigate the Feasibility, Safety, Tolerability and Efficacy of Daily Administration of Tricaprilin in Subjects with Infantile Spasms
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 19 Sept 2024
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of tricaprilin in subjects with infantile spasms. This is a single-arm, open-label, pilot study in up to 10 subjects with infantile spasms. Upon completion of the main phase, subjects who exhibit improvement in seizure control and who tolerate the compound will be offered continued use of the IMP until benefit-risk ratio is no longer favourable, in a one-year open-label extension phase, available to Australian participants only.

Who cannot take part
Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.
Prior treatment
- Subject considered by the Investigator, for any reason, to be an unsuitable candidate to receive the investigational product
- Known or suspected allergy to the investigational product
- Previous participation in another clinical study of the investigational product or received any investigational drug, device, or therapy within 30 days of study entry or within five half-lives of another investigational drug
- Within 14 days of screening, subject has:
- received therapy with felbamate, cannabinoids, ketogenic diet, or vagus nerve stimulation
- received therapy with ACTH, prednisolone or other steroid
- Previous failure to respond to an appropriate trial (at least 2 weeks) of the ketogenic diet
Other illness
- Significant and active pre-existing cardiovascular, renal, liver, infectious, or other systemic disease
- Subject has clinically significant renal impairment
- Known history of aspiration pneumonia within the past year
- Pre-existing lethal or potentially lethal condition other than infantile spasms
Other
- Clinically significant abnormality on ECG that, in the opinion of the Investigator, increases the safety risks of participating in the study
Who the study is looking for
- Male and female infants ages 3 months to 24 months, inclusive, at the time of parent/legal guardian signing the informed consent
- Clinical diagnosis of IS, confirmed by analysis of a 24-hour video-electroencephalogram (vEEG) recording, including at least one documented spasm
- Continued infantile spasms despite adequate treatment with oral prednisolone (or adrenocorticotropic hormone \[ACTH\]) and vigabatrin
- If being treated with concomitant ASDs (other than ketogenic therapies/diet), current ASDs have been at a constant daily dose for at least 1 week.
- Subject is taking no more than 3 concomitant ASDs
