- Area under the curve (AUC) of percent change from baseline in 24-hour urinary oxalate excretion between Day 90 and Day 180 [ Time Frame: 3 months (Last 3 months of the 6 month treatment period) ]Four measurements of percent change from baseline in 24-hour urinary oxalate are combined to determine a single AUC value
- Proportion of participants with a 24-hour Uox level < 0.46 mmol/24 hours or ≥ 0.46 - < 0.60 mmol/24 hours (adjusted per 1.73 m2 BSA in participants aged <18 years) on at least two consecutive study visits commencing at Day 90 and ending at Day 180 [ Time Frame: 3 months (Last 3 months of the 6 month treatment period) ]
- Percent change in the summed surface area and number of kidney stones identified via kidney ultrasound from baseline to Day 180 [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
- Percent change from baseline to Day 180 in plasma oxalate (for adults only) [ Time Frame: 6 months ]Four measurements of percent change from baseline in plasma oxalate are combined to determine a single AUC value
- Rate of change in eGFR from baseline to Day 180 [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
- AE and SAE throughout the study [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
- Change from baseline in 12-lead ECG [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
Standard 12-lead ECGs will be performed in the supine position after the subject has rested comfortably for 10 minutes. The parameters assessed will be rhythm, ventricular rate, PR interval, QRS duration, QT interval, and corrected QT interval (QTcF, Fridericia correction). The Investigator or designee is responsible for reviewing the ECG(s) to assess whether the results are within normal limits and to determine the clinical significance of the results.
Standardized ECG acquisition equipment will be provided to all clinical trial sites at the start of the trial, to ensure parity across all sites.
- The incidence and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE) and SAEs associated with abnormal physical examination findings [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
A full physical examination will include a complete review of body systems: eyes, ears, nose, and throat, chest/respiratory, heart/cardiovascular, gastrointestinal/liver, musculoskeletal/extremities, dermatological/skin, thyroid/neck, lymph nodes, and neurological. A full physical exam is done at Screening, Day 180 and if a participant ends the study early.
A brief physical examination will minimally include chest/respiratory, heart/cardiovascular, dermatological/skin, and gastrointestinal/liver. A brief physical examination will be performed may be performed at the Investigator's discretion at all other visits.
- The incidence and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE) and SAEs associated with abnormal vital signs [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
Vital signs include blood pressure, pulse/heart rate, oral body temperature, and respiratory rate.
Parameters will be measured in the supine position, using an automated instrument or manually, after the participant has rested comfortably for 10 minutes. In the pediatric population, an age-appropriate cuff size should be used for blood pressure measurements.
Temperature will be obtained in degrees Celsius (°C), pulse rate will be counted for a full minute and recorded in beats per minute, and respirations will be counted for a full minute and recorded in breaths per minute.
- The incidence and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE) and SAEs related to abnormal clinical laboratory tests (hematology, chemistry, coagulation parameters, and urinalysis) [ Time Frame: 6 months ]To evaluate the safety and tolerability of DCR PHXC when administered monthly to patients with primary hyperoxaluria (PH) via the change from baseline and incidence of abnormal clinical laboratory tests.
- To characterize the PK of DCR-PHXC in PH patients [ Time Frame: 6 months ]Maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax)
- To characterize the PK of DCR-PHXC in PH patients [ Time Frame: 6 months ]Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC)
