Withdrawal of Tiratricol Treatment in Males With Monocarboxylate Transporter 8 Deficiency (MCT8 Deficiency): A Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled Study
This is a double-blind, randomized phase 3 multicenter placebo-controlled study in at least 16 evaluable male participants diagnosed with MCT8 deficiency. Male participants, from 4 years of age (at randomization) and having demonstrated stable maintenance treatment with tiratricol, will be randomized to receive placebo or tiratricol for 30 days or until reaching rescue criterion (serum total triiodothyronine [T3] > upper limit of normal [ULN] of the participant's normal range, for a sample collected during the 30-day Randomized Treatment Period). The research hypothesis to be tested is that, for participants in the placebo group, removal of tiratricol will lead to an increase of serum total T3 concentration, measured by liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS), above the ULN and requirement of rescue treatment with tiratricol, compared to those who continue to receive tiratricol.
Caregiver-reported Economic Burden and Quality of Life Impact of Monocarboxylate Transporter 8 (MCT8) Deficiency
Caregivers face many responsibilities outside of their role as a friend or parent, which can lead to emotional, financial, social, and professional challenges. To better understand the impact of MCT8 deficiency on caregivers, Egetis Therapeutics are conducting an online survey for adult caregivers of persons living with the MCT8 deficiency.
Tiratricol Treatment of Children With Monocarboxylate Transporter 8 Deficiency: Triac Trial II
This study will investigate the effect of treatment with tiratricol (also called Triac) in young boys (≤30 months) with MCT8 deficiency (also called the Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome (AHDS)). The hypothesis tested is that treatment with tiratricol will have a beneficial effect on the hypothyroid state in the brain as well as the hyperthyroid state in peripheral organs and tissues in these patients. Patients will initially be treated for 96 weeks with tiratricol, treatment effect on neurodevelopment impairment caused by hypothyroidism and peripheral thyrotoxicosis will be evaluated after 96 weeks treatment. Patients will be offered to continue on treatment for an additional 2 years.
