This study tests a new enzyme replacement therapy called pegtibatinase for children with classical homocystinuria (HCU). The enzyme helps break down homocysteine, which may lower its levels in the blood and reduce symptoms.
This trial tests an injectable drug called pegtibatinase for people with a rare condition called homocystinuria. It aims to lower high levels of homocysteine in the blood compared to a placebo, while you continue your usual treatments.
This study looks at how cysteamine affects the bone health of people with nephropathic cystinosis, a rare genetic condition. It includes children and adults who are already taking cysteamine by mouth and will follow the study plan closely.
This study mainly observes what happens in people with homocystinuria caused by a CBS gene deficiency over time. It helps doctors better understand the condition’s natural course and may guide future treatments.
This study is testing a health-and-quality-of-life questionnaire for children and young adults with cystinosis. If you join, you may complete surveys and take part in interviews to help make the questions clearer and more useful.
This is an observational study that asks people with nephropathic cystinosis about their quality of life while taking cystine-depleting treatment (cysteamine). It may help researchers better understand how this condition and treatment affect daily living.
