Brief Summary

This is an open-label, extension study of NS-065/NCNP-01 administered intravenously once weekly for an additional 192 weeks to boys with DMD who complete Study NS-065/NCNP-01-201.

Detailed Description

This is a Phase II, multicenter, open-label, extension study of NS-065/NCNP-01 administered intravenously once weekly for an additional 192 weeks to boys with DMD who complete Study NS-065/NCNP-01-201. This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and clinical efficacy of NS-065/NCNP-01 at dose levels of up to 80 mg/kg/week administered by weekly IV infusion over an additional treatment period of 192 weeks or until enrollment in a separate long-term follow up program of NS-065/NCNP-01, whichever is earlier.

Patients who complete the Phase II Dose-finding Study NS-065/NCNP-01-201 are eligible to enroll.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Change From Baseline in Time to Stand (TTSTAND) Versus Matched Historical Controls	Baseline 201, Weeks 37, 49, 73, 109, 157, 205 in Study 202	A primary efficacy endpoint was compared to Baseline of Study 201 (NCT02740972): Time to Stand (TTSTAND)
Number of Participants With Treatment Related Adverse Events as Assessed by CTCAE v4.0.	Up to 192 weeks of treatment	For adverse events (AEs) starting in study 201 (NCT02740972) which are not resolved at the time of enrollment into this study 202, any change in outcome or relatedness were reported in study 201.; For AEs starting in study 201 which increase in severity or becomes serious after enrollment in this study 202, a new AE was reported in this study.; Treatment-emergent AEs (TEAEs) were summarized by dose level. Coding was done by system organ class and preferred term (using the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA)). Level of severity was assessed using the CTCAE grading system.
Change From Baseline in Time to Stand (TTSTAND) Velocity Versus Matched Historical Controls	Baseline 201, Weeks 37, 49, 73, 109, 157, 205 in Study 202	A primary efficacy endpoint was compared to Baseline of Study 201 (NCT02740972): Time to Stand (TTSTAND) Velocity
