Open-Label Study of Uridine Triacetate in Pediatric Patients With Hereditary Orotic Aciduria

This protocol has two parts - the Main Study which is 42 days in length and the Treatment Extension which allows the patients who complete the Main Study to continue receiving treatment with uridine triacetate. The purpose of this study is to replace oral administration of uridine with oral administration of uridine triacetate in patients with hereditary orotic aciduria who have received (or would reasonably be expected to receive) clinical benefit from treatment with exogenous uridine. It is also to document the continued clinical benefit of exogenous uridine when patients are switched from oral administration of uridine to oral administration of uridine triacetate.

Introduction: Hereditary orotic aciduria is an extremely rare, autosomal recessive disease caused by deficiency of uridine monophosphate synthase. Untreated, affected individuals may develop refractory megaloblastic anemia, neurodevelopmental disabilities, and crystalluria. Newborn screening has the potential to identify and enable treatment of affected individuals before they become significantly ill. Methods: Measuring orotic acid as part of expanded newborn screening using flow injection analysis tandem mass spectrometry. Results: Since the addition of orotic acid measurement to the Israeli routine newborn screening program, 1,492,439 neonates have been screened. The screen has identified ten Muslim Arab newborns that remain asymptomatic so far, with DBS orotic acid elevated up to 10 times the upper reference limit. Urine organic acid testing confirmed the presence of orotic aciduria along with homozygous variations in the UMPS gene. Conclusion: Newborn screening measuring of orotic acid, now integrated into the routine tandem mass spectrometry panel, is capable of identifying neonates with hereditary orotic aciduria.

Refractory epilepsy and encephalopathy are frequently encountered in patients with inborn errors of metabolism. We report a case of an 8-year-old girl with history of developmental delay, autism and intractable epilepsy that was found to have a pathogenic variant in CAD. We briefly review the biochemical pathway of CAD and the preclinical and clinical studies that suggest uridine supplementation can rescue the CAD deficiency phenotypes. Our case demonstrates a relatively late-onset case of refractory epilepsy with a rapid response to treatment using the uridine pro-drug triacetyluridine (TAU), the FDA-approved treatment for hereditary orotic aciduria.

BACKGROUND:

Elevated urinary excretion of orotic acid is associated with treatable disorders of the urea cycle and pyrimidine metabolism. Establishing the correct and timely diagnosis in a patient with orotic aciduria is key to effective treatment. Uridine monophosphate synthase is involved in de novo pyrimidine synthesis. Uridine monophosphate synthase deficiency (or hereditary orotic aciduria), due to biallelic mutations in UMPS, is a rare condition presenting with megaloblastic anemia in the first months of life. If not treated with the pyrimidine precursor uridine, neutropenia, failure to thrive, growth retardation, developmental delay, and intellectual disability may ensue.

METHODS AND RESULTS:

We identified mild and isolated orotic aciduria in 11 unrelated individuals with diverse clinical signs and symptoms, the most common denominator being intellectual disability/developmental delay. Of note, none had blood count abnormalities, relevant hyperammonemia or altered plasma amino acid profile. All individuals were found to have heterozygous alterations in UMPS. Four of these variants were predicted to be null alleles with complete loss of function. The remaining variants were missense changes and predicted to be damaging to the normal encoded protein. Interestingly, family screening revealed heterozygous UMPS variants in combination with mild orotic aciduria in 19 clinically asymptomatic family members.

CONCLUSIONS:

We therefore conclude that heterozygous UMPS-mutations can lead to mild and isolated orotic aciduria without clinical consequence. Partial UMPS-deficiency should be included in the differential diagnosis of mild orotic aciduria. The discovery of heterozygotes manifesting clinical symptoms such as hypotonia and developmental delay are likely due to ascertainment bias.

SERB Pharmaceuticals acquires Vistogard® and Xuriden® from Wellstat Therapeutics

West Conshohocken, PA, July 13, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SERB Pharmaceuticals, a global specialty pharmaceutical company, announced today that it has acquired two life-saving medicines, Vistogard® (uridine triacetate) and Xuriden® (uridine triacetate), from Wellstat Therapeutics. Both medicines are commercially available in the US and currently distributed across Europe on a named patient or compassionate use basis. Vistogard® is an emergency treatment for adult and pediatric patients following a fluorouracil (5-FU) or capecitabine overdose regardless of the presence of symptoms, or who exhibit early-onset, severe or life- threatening toxicity affecting the cardiac or central nervous system, and/or early-onset, unusually severe adverse reactions (e.g., gastrointestinal toxicity and/or neutropenia) within 96 hours following the end of 5-FU or capecitabine administration.[i] 5-FU and capecitabine are chemotherapy agents commonly used to treat a wide variety of solid tumors. Xuriden® is a treatment for adult and pediatric patients with hereditary orotic aciduria (HOA)[ii], an ultra-rare, orphan genetic disorder associated megaloblastic anemia as well as failure to thrive, developmental delay, epilepsy, susceptibility to infection, and orotic acid crystals in the urine.[iii] Jeremie Urbain, President of SERB Pharmaceuticals, said: “We’re proud to add these two treatments to our expanding portfolio of medicines for complex, life-threatening conditions. Acquiring these medicines is in line with our strategy to focus on emergency care and rare diseases.” The products will be sold in the US by BTG Pharmaceuticals, SERB’s US entity. The products will transition seamlessly from Wellstat to BTG Pharmaceuticals and will continue to be available from the same distributors via the same ordering processes: To order Vistogard®, please call 1-800-914-0071. Vistogard® is distributed through Cardinal Health Specialty Pharmaceutical Distribution, available 24 hours/day, 7 days/week. Vistogard® and Xuriden® are available for dispensing through BioMatrix Specialty Pharmacy. To reach BioMatrix Specialty Pharmacy, please call: 844-374-0604. BTG Pharmaceuticals, a SERB company, will promote Vistogard® and continue promoting Voraxaze® through its oncology field force in the US. The companies did not disclose specific financial terms. Today’s news follows the announcement in May that SERB has acquired the exclusive US rights to bentracimab, which is in development as a ticagrelor reversal agent. About Fluorouracil (5-FU) and capecitabine toxicity 5-FU and capecitabine are both trusted chemotherapies received by thousands of patients, often in combination with other chemotherapy agents or radiation. They have a history of success in treating a range of cancers including breast, colorectal (bowel), gastric (stomach), and pancreatic cancer. According to the National Institute of Health (NIH), about 275,000 patients in the US receive 5-FU every year. Capecitabine, a prodrug that is enzymatically converted to 5-FU within the body, has about 60,000 treatment packages sold per year. Approximately 3% of these patients develop serious toxicities and more than 8,000 toxic reactions and 1,300 deaths every year are attributed to 5-FU and capecitabine..[iv] About HOA Hereditary orotic aciduria (HOA) is a very rare inborn error of pyrimidine metabolism caused by mutations reducing the activity of uridine monophosphate synthase (UMPS), which converts orotic acid to UMP. Uridine deficiency underlies many of the symptoms of HOA. When untreated, patients with HOA may develop a blood (hematologic) disorder called megaloblastic anemia as well as exhibiting failure to thrive, developmental delay, epilepsy, susceptibility to infection and orotic acid crystals in the urine (crystalluria).iii About SERB Pharmaceuticals SERB is a global specialty pharmaceutical company with a growing portfolio of medicines for emergency care and rare diseases.

About Vistogard® Indication VISTOGARD® is indicated for the emergency treatment of adult and pediatric patients: following a fluorouracil or capecitabine overdose regardless of the presence of symptoms, or who exhibit early-onset, severe or life- threatening toxicity affecting the cardiac or central nervous system, and/or early onset, unusually severe adverse reactions (e.g., gastrointestinal toxicity and/or neutropenia) within 96 hours following the end of fluorouracil or capecitabine administration. Limitations of use VISTOGARD® is not recommended for the non–emergent treatment of adverse reactions associated with fluorouracil or capecitabine because it may diminish the efficacy of these drugs. The safety and efficacy of VISTOGARD initiated more than 96 hours following the end of fluorouracil or capecitabine administration have not been established. Important Safety Information In clinical studies, adverse reactions occurring in >2% of patients receiving VISTOGARD® included vomiting (10%), nausea (5%), and diarrhea (3%). One person receiving uridine triacetate experienced grade 3 nausea and vomiting. VISTOGARD® was discontinued for adverse reactions in 2 (1.4%) patients. See full prescribing information. About Xuriden® Indication XURIDEN® is indicated in adult and pediatric patients for the treatment of hereditary orotic aciduria. Important Safety Information Contraindications – None. Warning and Precautions – None. Adverse reactions – No adverse reactions were reported with XURIDEN in patients with HOA. Pregnancy – There are no available data on XURIDEN use in pregnant women to inform drug-associated risk. Lactation– There are no data on the presence of XURIDEN in human milk, the effect on the breast-fed infant or the effect on milk production. The development and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for XURIDEN and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from XURIDEN or from the underlying maternal condition.
