Completed
Conditions
Sanfilippo Syndrome B
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT03300453
Lead Sponsor
UniQure Biopharma B.V.
Brief Summary

This is an open-label, phase I/II study of intra-cerebral administration of adenovirus-associated viral vector containing the human NAGLU cDNA to children suffering from Sanfilippo type B syndrome.

Detailed Description

This is an open-label, phase I/II study of intra-cerebral administration of adenovirus-associated viral vector containing the human NAGLU cDNA to children suffering from Sanfilippo type B syndrome.

Four patients, 18 months up to the 5th birthday, have been included.

The inclusion period will be 8 to 12 months. The duration of follow-up for each patient is 1 year post-surgery. The duration of the first extension phase is 18 months. The duration of the second extension phase is 36 months. Therefore, the maximum time of the follow-up will be 66 months
