Overview

Brief Summary

Part 1: Biomarker evaluation/screening phase

Primary Objectives:

  • Evaluate cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers in adult Gaucher disease Type 3 (GD3) participants that distinguish GD3 from adult Gaucher disease Type 1 (GD1) participants
  • Screen adult GD3 participants who qualify for treatment with venglustat in Parts 2, Part 3, and Part 4 Parts 2 and 3: Combination treatment phases

Primary objectives:

  • Evaluate short-term (Part 2) and long-term (Part 3) safety and tolerability of venglustat in combination with Cerezyme in adult GD3 participants
  • Evaluate the change in CSF central nervous system (CNS) biomarkers (glucosylceramide [GL-1] and lyso-glucosylceramide [lyso-GL-1]) from adult GD3 participants receiving venglustat in combination with Cerezyme (Part 2 only) Part 4: Extended treatment phase with monotherapy

Primary objectives:

• Evaluate safety and tolerability of venglustat monotherapy in adult GD3 participants who have remained systemically stable on venglustat in combination with Cerezyme Parts 2 and 3: Combination treatment phases

Secondary Objectives:

  • Evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of venglustat in adult GD3 participants
  • Evaluate the efficacy of venglustat in combination with Cerezyme in systemic disease in adult GD3 participants by assessing spleen volume, liver volume, hemoglobin level and platelet count
  • Evaluate the efficacy of venglustat in combination with Cerezyme on neurological function in adult GD3 participants by assessing Ataxia using the Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA)
  • Evaluate plasma biomarkers (lyso-GL-1 and GL-1) in adult GD3 participants Part 4: Extended treatment phase with monotherapy

Secondary objectives:

  • Evaluate the efficacy of venglustat in systemic disease in adult GD3 participants by assessing spleen volume, liver volume, hemoglobin level and platelet count
  • Evaluate the efficacy of venglustat on neurological function in adult GD3 participants by assessing Ataxia using the Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA)
  • Evaluate plasma biomarkers (lyso-GL-1 and GL-1) in adult GD3 participants

Detailed Description

The total duration for GD1 participants is 45 days (Part 1), while for GD3 participants the total duration is up to approximately 10 years

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • GD3 and GD1 participants must meet the following criteria to be eligible for this study:
  • GD1 participant is ≥18 and ≤40 years of age.
  • GD3 participant is ≥18 years of age.
  • Participant must provide written informed consent prior to any study-related procedures being performed.
  • Participant has a clinical diagnosis of Gaucher disease Type 1 (GD1) or Gaucher disease Type 3 (GD3) and documented deficiency of acid beta-glucosidase activity confirming this diagnosis.
  • Participant has received ERT (Cerezyme or other ERT; as deemed appropriate by local regulations) for at least 3 years prior to enrollment, on a stable dose for at least 6 months and is within the therapeutic goals defined below, and is deemed clinically stable for at least 1 year by the Investigator.
  • Participant has reached Gaucher disease therapeutic goals defined as all of the following to be eligible for this study:
  • Hemoglobin level of ≥11.0 g/dL for females and ≥12.0 g/dL for males.
  • Platelet count ≥100,000/mm
  • Spleen volume \<10 multiples of normal (MN), or total splenectomy (provided the splenectomy occurred \>3 years prior to randomization).

Exclusion Criteria

  • Participants are excluded from the study if any of the following criteria apply:
  • Substrate reduction therapy or chaperone therapy for GD within 6 months prior to enrollment.
  • Participant has had a partial or total splenectomy within 3 years prior to randomization.
  • Participant is blood transfusion-dependent.
  • Prior esophageal varices or liver infarction or current liver enzymes (alanine aminotransferase \[ALT\]/ aspartate aminotransferase \[AST\]) or total bilirubin \>2 times the upper limit of normal, unless the participant has a diagnosis of Gilbert Syndrome.
  • Participant has any clinically significant disease, other than GD, including cardiovascular (congenital cardiac defect, coronary artery disease, valve disease or left sided heart failure; clinically significant arrhythmias or conduction defect), hepatic, gastrointestinal, pulmonary, neurologic, endocrine, metabolic (eg, hypokalemia, hypomagnesemia) or psychiatric disease, other medical conditions, or serious intercurrent illnesses that may preclude participation.
  • Participant has renal insufficiency, as defined by an estimated glomerular filtration rate \<30 mL/min/1.73m2 at the screening visit.
  • Participant has received an investigational product within 30 days prior to enrollment.
  • Participant has a history of cancer, with the exception of basal cell carcinoma.
  • Participant has myoclonic seizures.
