About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Primary Hyperoxaluria focused on measuring hyperoxaluria, oxalate, PH
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Signed informed consent (as applicable for the age of the subject).
- Male or female subjects ≥ 2 years of age (Germany & France) / Male or female subjects ≥ 5 years of age (United Kingdom)
- A diagnosis of PH type I, II or III (as determined by standard diagnostic methods).
- A mean urinary oxalate excretion of > 1.0 mmol/24h/1.73m2, based on at least three eligible urine collections performed during baseline (weeks 1-4).
- Renal function defined as an estimated GFR ≥ 40 ml/min normalised to 1.73m2 body surface area, or a creatinine clearance of ≥ 40 ml/min normalised to 1.73m2 body surface area.
- Subjects receiving vitamin B6 must be receiving a stable dose for at least 3 months prior to screening and must not change the dose during the study. Subjects not receiving vitamin B6 at study entry must be willing to refrain from initiating pyridoxine during study participation.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Inability to collect complete 24-hour urine samples. Each urine collection will be evaluated for completeness based on urine qualitative criteria.
- Inability to swallow size 4 capsules twice daily for 8 to 10 weeks.
- Subjects that have undergone transplantation (solid organ or bone marrow).
- The existence of secondary hyperoxaluria, e.g. hyperoxaluria due to bariatric surgery or chronic gastrointestinal diseases such as cystic fibrosis, chronic inflammatory bowel disease and short-bowel syndrome.
- Use of antibiotics to which O. formigenes is sensitive, including chronic use, a history of more than two courses of antibiotic use during the past 6 months, current antibiotic use, or antibiotics use within 14 days of initiating study medication.
- Subjects who require immune suppressive therapy.
- Current treatment with ascorbic acid preparation.
- Pregnancy.
- Women of child-bearing potential who are not using adequate contraceptive precautions such as oral, transdermal, injectable, or implanted contraceptives, IUD, complete abstinence, use of a condom by the sexual partner, or sterile sexual partner.
- Presence of a medical condition that the Principal Investigator considers likely to make the subject susceptible to adverse effect of study treatment or unable to follow study procedures.
- Participation in any study of an investigational product, biologic, device, or other agent within 30 days prior to screening or not willing to forego other forms of investigational treatment during this study.

Arms of the Study

Arm 2
Arm Type
Experimental
Placebo Comparator
Arm Label
Oxabact OC5 capsules
Placebo capsules
Arm Description
The active study drug consists of Oxalobacter formigenes OC5 in enteric-coated size-4 capsules. The dose (not less than (NLT) 1E+09 colony forming units (CFU)) will be administrated orally with breakfast and dinner as one capsule two times per day for 8 to 10 weeks.
The placebo study drug consists of microcrystalline cellulose in enteric-coated size-4 capsules. It has been manufactured to mimic the OC5 capsule. The dose will be administrated orally with breakfast and dinner as one capsule two times per day for 8 to 10 weeks.
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Change in urinary oxalate levels from Baseline to week 8 of treatment.
Secondary Outcome Measures
Change in urinary oxalate levels from Baseline to week 8 of treatment in subsets of subjects
Change in urinary oxalate levels from Baseline to week 8 of treatment in subsets of subjects defined by:
baseline urinary oxalate level, above and below 1.5 mmol/24h/1.73m2
concomitant vitamin B6 therapy and no vitamin B6 therapy
eGFR of ≥90 mL/min/1.73m2 (normal renal function) and < 90 mL/min/1.73m2 (mild to moderate reduction in renal function)
age below 18 and age 18 or above
Number of subjects who reach urinary oxalate levels below 0.5, 0.7 and 1.0 mmol/24h/1.73m2 respectively from Baseline to week 8 of treatment.
Change in plasma oxalate levels from Baseline to week 8 of treatment.
Change in urinary oxalate levels from Baseline to week 4 of treatment.
Correlation between change in plasma oxalate levels and change in urinary oxalate levels, from Baseline to week 8 of treatment.
Change in number of O. formigenes in faeces from Baseline to week 8 of treatment.
Adverse events
Haematology
Blood samples taken for hematology at weeks 0, 5, 10 and 14. Complete blood count with differential and platelet count evaluated.
Clinical Chemistry
Blood samples taken for clinical chemistry at weeks 0, 5, 10 and 14. Blood Urea Nitrogen, creatinine, electrolytes (Na+, K+, Mg++, Ca++, HCO3+, Cl), glucose, pH, albumin, alkaline phosphatase, ALT, AST, total bilirubin and total protein evaluated.
Urinalysis
Urine samples will be taken at weeks 0, 5, 10 and 14 of the study. Protein, glucose and pH evaluated.
