12 Jun, 2026Study background and rationale
Canvuparatide is a once-weekly precision peptide designed for PTH replacement in chronic hypoparathyroidism, aiming to reduce daily treatment burden and improve patient quality of life for a population exceeding 250,000 in the US and EU.
The AVAIL Phase II study and its open-label extension (OLE) evaluated safety, efficacy, durability, and patient-reported outcomes in adults with hypoparathyroidism, with most patients having long-standing post-surgical disease.
The study targeted normalization of serum calcium, independence from active vitamin D and calcium supplements, and reduction of urine calcium.
The OLE followed patients for up to two years, with endpoints including bone metabolism and kidney function.
Avail Phase 2 was a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study with 64 patients across four arms.
Key efficacy and safety results
At one year, 57% of patients met the composite responder endpoint, demonstrating sustained efficacy and durability compared to 63% at 12 weeks.
98% achieved independence from active vitamin D, 85% from oral calcium, and 75% maintained normal serum calcium at one year.
Canvuparatide enabled most patients to maintain normal serum calcium, reduce or eliminate vitamin D and calcium supplements, and showed a favorable safety profile with mostly mild or moderate adverse events.
Urinary calcium excretion decreased substantially, especially in patients with elevated baseline levels, while maintaining normal serum calcium and improved eGFR.
Bone turnover markers increased as expected, indicating restoration of bone remodeling, and bone mineral density remained within normal range.
Safety and tolerability
Canvuparatide was generally well tolerated, with no new safety signals in the OLE and no treatment-related serious adverse events reported.
Most adverse events were mild or moderate; 5% had severe TEAEs, and injection site reactions occurred in 10% of patients.
Immunogenicity was minimal, with only 1.7% developing low-titer anti-drug antibodies.
No deaths or treatment-related serious adverse events were reported.
