Early Phase Human Drug Trial to Investigate DYN101 in Participants 2 to 17 Years With Centronuclear Myopathies

• Status: Not yet recruiting
• Trial end date: 2023-06-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

There are no available treatments aside from supportive care for patients with Centronuclear myopathy (CNM). This trial will assess the safety and tolerability as well as pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and preliminary efficacy of DYN101 in participants 2 to 17 years of age with CNM caused by mutations in DNM2 or MTM1.The trial will consist of a pre-screening consent, a screening period, a run-in period (if applicable), and a Part 1 of 12 weeks with weekly infusion of DYN101 to evaluate safety and tolerability as well as PK, PD and preliminary efficacy. The dose level may need adjustment based on the Part 1 results of the current study and available data from the Unite-CNM study (DYN101-C101, NCT04033159). If a dose adjustment is needed, Part 2 will be conducted in the same participants and the newly selected dose level will be used to assess whether efficacy is seen after an additional 12 weeks of treatment. As this trial is investigational, there is no defined, expected benefit for subjects who participate in this trial except a better knowledge of their disease.

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Male or female aged ≥2 to <18 years on the date the main ICF is signed.

2. Have a clinically symptomatic CNM, with a documented MTM1 or DNM2 mutation.

3. Have impaired muscle function as evidenced by:

• MFM20 score between 5% and 80% for subjects ≥2 and <6 years of age, or

• MFM32 score between 5% and 80% for subjects ≥6 years of age.

4. Have sufficient skeletal muscle (vastus lateralis, gastrocnemius, or biceps brachii as last resort) to perform 2 open muscle biopsies during the trial, as determined by ultrasound imaging at screening.

5. Subject must have platelet count >150,000/µL at screening.

6. Parent(s) or legally-authorized representative must be able to provide written, signed and dated informed consent for their child to participate in the trial. Informed assent can be obtained from the child according to local regulations.

7. Parent(s) or legally-authorized representative must be at or above the age of legal consent in the jurisdiction of the country in which the trial is taking place.

8. Subject, parent(s), and/or legally-authorized representative must have an understanding, ability, and willingness to fully comply with visit frequency, trial procedures, videorecording of assessments where applicable, and restrictions, including contraceptive requirements.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Subject has evidence of clinically significant liver disease.

2. Subject has evidence of clinically significant renal disease.

3. Presence of significant comorbidities or conditions other than CNM or clinically significant findings during screening of medical history, physical examination, clinical laboratory evaluation, vital signs, or ECG recording for which, in the opinion of the investigator and/or the medical monitor, participation would not be in the best interest of the subject (e.g. compromise the safety or well-being) or that could prevent, limit, or confound the protocol-specified assessments (e.g. taking a muscle biopsy).

4. Subject currently enrolled in any interventional trial or scheduled to participate in such a trial whilst participating in the current trial.

5. Subject has previously received gene therapy for CNM.

6. Subject has severe muscle contractures that would preclude the ability to show improvement in the MFM32 assessment, in the opinion of the investigator.

7. Subject has severe airway malacia which could impact the capacity to wean off ventilatory support.

8. Subject requires oxygen supplementation.

9. For female subjects of childbearing potential: pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant during the trial.

10. Current or relevant history of physical or psychiatric illness, and/or any medical disorder that may require treatment or make the subject unlikely to fully complete the trial, or any condition that presents undue risk from the investigational medicinal product (IMP) or procedures.

11. Intake of any disallowed therapies by the subject within 12 weeks before the planned first IMP administration.

12. Known or suspected intolerance or hypersensitivity to IMP ingredients or closely related compounds.

13. Parent(s) or legally authorized representative are legally incapacitated or have limited legal capacity, or have lack of mental capacity to fully understand the protocol requirements and ensure completion of all required trial procedures.
