Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Safety of quercetin in patients with XIAP deficiency
Assessment of AEs
6 months
Tolerability of quercetin in patients with XIAP deficiency
Number of subjects who discontinue study drug due to intolerance
6 months
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Pharmacokinetics (PK) of quercetin in patients with XIAP deficiency
Pre and post dose at baseline, 2 months, and 6 months
Study Arms (1)
Quercetin
EXPERIMENTALAll subjects will receive a weight adjusted dose of quercetin for a maximum total daily dose of 4000mg/day, divided twice a day.
Interventions
Quercetin will be administered orally at a weight adjusted dose for a maximum total daily dose of 4000mg/day, divided twice a day. If the patient is 70 kg or more, the dose will automatically be assigned at the maximum dose of 4000mg/day. Patients will be instructed to mix quercetin with a small amount of yogurt or other preferred food for ingestion.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Male patients
- Diagnosis of XIAP deficiency
- Patients ≥2 years of age
- Serum IL-18 ≥600 pg/mL (approximately 25% above the lab-defined upper limit of normal of 477 pg/mL)
- Able to take enteral medication
You may not qualify if:
- Renal failure requiring dialysis
- Total bilirubin \>3 mg/dl and/or SGPT \>300 at time of enrollment
- Patients receiving digoxin therapy, who are unable to discontinue treatment due to medical reasons
- Patients receiving fluoroquinolone therapy, who are unable to discontinue treatment due to medical reasons
- Patients who are at risk of pregnancy or fathering a child and are unable to use acceptable methods of birth control during the length of the study
- Patients who have received quercetin or any over the counter anti-oxidant supplementation within last 1 month
- Patients with unstable disease status or other medical issues requiring hospitalization or rapid escalation of medical care
- Participating in another therapeutic study for XIAP deficiency
