Exclusion criteria: Patients will not be eligible to participate in the study if they meet ANY of the following exclusion criteria: 1.patients known to be hypersensitive to febuxostat or to any components of the formulation; 2.patients with hereditary problems of galactose intolerance, the lapp lactase deficiency, or glucose-galactase malabsorption; 3.pregnant or breastfeeding women; 4.patients receiving febuxostat or any other urate-lowering therapy (e.g. allopurinol, rasburicase, probenecid) within 30 days prior to Visit 1 (Day 1); 5.patients receiving mercaptopurine and azathioprine within 14 days prior to Visit 1 (Day 1); 6.patients with severe renal insufficiency; 7.patients with severe hepatic insufficiency; 8.patients with diagnosis of Laboratory TLS (LTLS) or Clinical TLS (CTLS) at Visit 1 (Day 1). 9.Patients receiving any other investigational agent within 30 days prior to study Visit 1 (Day 1).
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: -To assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) of febuxostat in paediatric patients (=6<18 years of age) and in adults suffering from hematological malignancies at intermediate to high risk of TLS. -To compare the febuxostat exposure in pediatric patients (=6<18 years of age) with the one achieved in adults administered with a dose of 120 mg/QD. ;Secondary Objective: -To compare the pharmacodynamics (PD) of febuxostat between pediatric patients (=6<18 years of age) and adults. -To evaluate and compare the PK/PD relationship of febuxostat in pediatric patients (=6<18 years of age) and adults. -To evaluate the safety of febuxostat between pediatric patients (=6<18 years of age) and adults. -To evaluate the occurrence of Laboratory TLS (LTLS) and Clinical TLS (CTLS) according to Cairo and Bishop Criteria -To assess the age-appropriate formulation acceptability in children. ;Primary end point(s): Pharmacokinetic endpoints derived from the study will include: ? Primary PK parameters: CL/F, Vd/F and Ka. ? Derived PK parameters: AUC and Cmax. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Blood samples will be collected on Visits 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 (i.e., after the first treatment administration and on each following visit until the Evaluation Visit). Four additional blood samples are required for each patient on Visit 7 (Day 7) at the selected sampling intervals: 0.5-2 hours, 2-4 hours, 4-6 hours and 6-8 hours post study drug intake. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): Pharmacodynamic endpoint: 1. Area under the curve of sUA from baseline (Visit 1, Day 1) to the Evaluation Visit (Visit 8, Day 8) (AUC sUA 1-8) based on central laboratory results. PK/PD endpoint: 2.The PK/PD relationship will be evaluated based on sUA levels and febuxostat exposure. Clinical endpoints: 3. Incidence of Laboratory TLS (LTLS) from Start of Chemotherapy (Visit 3, Day 3) to the Evaluation Visit (Visit 8, Day 8), based on local laboratory results. -Incidence and grading of Clinical TLS (CTLS) from Start of Chemotherapy (Visit 3, Day 3) to the Evaluation Visit (Visit 8, Day 8) based on local laboratory results. Safety endpoints: 4.Incidence, severity (both through Mild/Moderate/Severe scale and NCI-CTCAE grade), seriousness and treatment causality of Treatment-Emergent Signs and Symptoms (TESS). -Frequency of clinically significant abnormalities in physical examination, safety laboratory tests, vital signs and 12 Lead ECG. -Change in PS according to Karnofsky/Lansky scales. 5. Acceptability assessment of the age-appropriate formulation only for children.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1. Blood samples for sUA analysis will be performed from Visits 1 to 8 (i.e., before 1st drug intake, on each following visit until the Evaluation Visit). 2. PK/PD timepoints are the same of both primary endpoint and the pharmacodynamic timepoints. 3. From start of treatment (day 1) to the end of study visit 10 (day 14±2) 4. From start of chemotherapy (day 3) to evaluation visit (day 8) 5. From start of treatment (day 1) to visit 7 (day 7 ) or 9 (day 9) based on investigator's judgment. | — |
