NPS Pharmaceuticals' phase III REPLACE study shows positive results

Monday, November 7, 2011 01:06 PM

NPS Pharmaceuticals has reported positive top-line results from REPLACE, a phase III registration study of NPSP558, the company's bioengineered replica of human parathyroid hormone (rhPTH 1-84), in adult hypoparathyroidism patients. NPS has received orphan drug status for NPSP558 for the treatment of hypoparathyroidism, a rare endocrine disorder in which the body produces insufficient levels of parathyroid hormone, the principal regulator of calcium and phosphorus, and for which there is no FDA-approved replacement therapy. The symptoms of hypoparathyroidism are typically managed with large doses of oral calcium supplementation and active vitamin D therapy to reduce the severity of symptoms. The prolonged use of oral calcium supplementation and active vitamin D therapy may result in serious long-term health complications.
