About this trial

This trial has a duration of 78 weeks and will include adult participants already on treatment with palopegteriparatide at doses at or greater than 30 mcg/day. All participants will receive subcutaneous palopegteriparatide during the trial and will be individually and progressively titrated to an optimal dose at pre-specified dose levels. The primary purpose of the trial is to provide additional evidence of treatment effect and safety of palopegteriparatide at doses greater than 30 mcg/day in adults with hypoparathyroidism. The trial will be conducted in the US.
