About this trial
White blood cell (WBC) cystine levels serve as the primary therapeutic target for monitoring cysteamine treatment in cystinosis, with a goal of \<1.9 nmol ½ cystine/mg protein as measured 5-6 hours post-dose when treated with immediate-release formulation, Cystagon® , or 11-12 hours post-dose when treated with delayed-release formulation, Procysbi®, using UCSD granulocyte assay.
Although cysteamine dosing in cystinosis has traditionally been individualized based on WBC cystine levels, the FDA-approved Cystagon® prescribing information now includes an approximate recommended maintenance dose of 1.30 g/m²/day. When this dosing strategy is plotted against body weight, it aligns with the dosing regimen of TTI-0102 that was found effective in mitochondrial diseases, demonstrating a linear relationship between dose and weight.
The main objective of this study is to demonstrate that administration of a single dose of 60 ± 5 mg/kg/day of TTI-0102 (\~26 mg/kg cysteamine base equivalent) allows maintenance of WBC cystine at \<1.9 nmol ½ cystine/mg protein over 24 hours as determined by UCSD granulocyte assay.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Adults aged 18-65 years with a confirmed diagnosis of cystinosis based on clinical features and/or genetic testing, with or without history of kidney transplantation.
Currently treated with a stable dose of Cystagon® or Procysbi® for at least 3 months prior to enrollment.
Body weight between 50 kg and 80 kg at screening.
Able to attend all required study visits and comply with study procedures, including blood draws over a 24-hour period.
Disqualifiers
Known hypersensitivity or allergy to cysteamine, pantetheine, TTI-0102, or any excipients in the study drug.
Clinically significant uncontrolled medical conditions (e.g., unstable cardiac, hepatic, or renal disease) that, in the investigator's judgment, would increase risk or interfere with study participation.
Participation in another interventional clinical trial within 30 days prior to screening.
Any condition that, in the investigator's opinion, would make the participant an unsuitable candidate (e.g., inability to comply with procedures, significant cognitive impairment, active substance use disorder).

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
White blood cell (WBC) cystine
The primary endpoint is the change in white blood cell (WBC) cystine levels following treatment with TTI-0102. The study will evaluate whether a weight-based dose of 60 ± 5 mg/kg/day maintains WBC cystine levels below 1 nmol ½ cystine/mg protein over 24 hours.
