Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Stage 1 - 12 months Stage 2 - 24 months ; Main Objective: The principal research objectives for Stage 1 are to: To aassess the safety and tolerability of carbamazepine (CBZ) in the treatment of children with MCDS who are ambulant but have not yet reached skeletal maturity (open epiphyses). To determine an appropriate dose regimen of CBZ to inform the treatment of children with MCDS in Stage 2. The principal research objectives for Stage 2 are: To evaluate efficacy of carbamazepine for the treatment of children with MCDS who are ambulant but have not yet reached skeletal maturity (open epiphyses). To determine if the level of efficacy warrants a subsequent formal development programme for carbamazepine in this indication. ; Secondary Objective: The secondary research objectives for Stage 1 are: To evaluate the effect of CBZ on pain in children with MCDS over 12 months. The secondary research objectives for Stage 2 are: To evaluate the effect of CBZ on height in children with MCDS over 24 months. To evaluate the effect of CBZ on bone conformation in children with MCDS over 24 months. To evaluate the effect of CBZ on pain in children with MCDS over 24 months. To evaluate the effect of CBZ on health related quality of life of children with MCDS over 24 months. To identify novel biomarkers relevant to CBZ treatment of MCDS which can be used to monitor therapy and disease progression. ; Primary end point(s): Stage 1 Laboratory safety assessments, adverse events recording and physical examinations collected over a 12 month period post IMP administration. Outcome of dose-titration safety review at 3 and 12 mo | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Stage 1 - 12 months Stage 2 - 24 months ; Secondary end point(s): Stage 1 Alteration from baseline in pain perception over 12 months as measured by: • PEDSQL Pain Coping Inventory • PEDSQL Pain Questionnaire Stage 2 Alteration from baseline in height percentile over 24 months. Alteration from baseline in long bone alignment and configuration over 24 months as measured by X-ray analysis. Alteration from baseline in pain perception over 24 months as measured by: • PEDSQL Pain Coping Inventory • PEDSQL Pain Questionnaire Alteration from baseline in HRQOL scores over 24 months as measured by: • Paediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) • EQ-5D-Y Use of samples (blood) from the cell, and mouse models, patients enrolled into this trial and control samples to identify MCDS biomarker signatures (+/- CBZ treatment) | — |
