A Phase 1/Phase 2 Open-label Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of a Single Intravenous Administration of SAR444836 in Adult Participants With Phenylketonuria
- Registration Number
- NCT05972629
- Lead Sponsor
- Sanofi
- Brief Summary
This is a single group Phase 1/Phase 2, 1-arm, open-label study with SAR444836, an adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector-mediated gene transfer of human phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH), for the treatment of adult participants with phenylketonuria (PKU) on a chronic, stable diet. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of SAR444836 in reducing phenylalanine (Phe) levels and in the elimination of a Phe restricted diet.
Participants will receive a one-time intravenous (IV) administration of SAR444836.
The study is constituted of 2 separate parts: a dose escalation part, and a dose expansion part where subsequent participants will be administered a safe and effective dose level identified during the dose escalation part. In both study parts, clinical and laboratory assessments will be collected to: a) assess the incidence of adverse events, and b) evaluate the effect of SAR444836 on reductions in blood Phe levels and maintenance of these Phe levels after elimination of a Phe restricted diet.
The study duration will be for a minimum duration of 5 years following SAR444836 administration, for each participant and includes a 6-week screening phase, a 96-week treatment follow-up period after SAR444836 administration, followed by an additional 3 years of long-term safety (and efficacy) monitoring.
There will be a total of 47 study visits. Many study visits may occur as remote visits and be performed by a qualified in-home service provider.
Actual study duration for an individual participant may be longer than 5 years due to the administration of SAR444836 to participants in Stage 1A in a serial fashion, the duration of the screening period, and/or other factors such as delays in scheduling study visits.

- active hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection defined as positive test for hepatitis C antibody followed by detectable HCV RNA or if a participant is presently receiving (or has received within 6 months prior to screening) anti-viral therapy for hepatitis C
-
Clinically significant, active bacterial, viral, fungal, or parasitic infection (based on Investigator's judgement)
