AMX0035 and Progressive Supranuclear Palsy
- Conditions
- Neurodegenerative DiseasesAtypical ParkinsonismPSPProgressive Supranuclear Palsy
- Interventions
- Drug: AMX0035Other: Placebo
- Registration Number
- NCT06122662
- Lead Sponsor
- Amylyx Pharmaceuticals Inc.
- Brief Summary
A35-009 (ORION) is a Phase 2b/3 trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AMX0035 in participants with Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP), consisting of randomized, double blind placebo controlled phases, followed by an optional open-label extension phase.
- Detailed Description
AMX0035 is a fixed dose combination therapy designed to reduce neuronal death through blockade of key cellular death pathways originating in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria. This clinical trial is designed to demonstrate that AMX0035 is safe and tolerable, and to assess its effect on disease progression as measured by the Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) Rating Scale (PSPRS) over a 52-week double-blind phase. The Phase 2b and Phase 3 study portions are planned to feature an identical design: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase that is followed by an optional open-label extension (OLE) phase. The phase 3 portion of ORION may be initiated based on results of the phase 2b Interim Analysis and/or the Primary Analysis and the totality of data from the Phase 2b study portion.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change in total (28-item) Progressive Supranuclear Palsy Rating Scale (PSPRS) Score 52 weeks Assess the impact of AMX0035 on disease progression as measured by the Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) Rating Scale (PSPRS); Total scores range from 0-96 with higher scores indicating more progressed disease
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change in total (10-item) Progressive Supranuclear Palsy Rating Scale (PSPRS) Score 52 weeks Assess the impact of AMX0035 on disease progression as measured by the Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) Rating Scale (PSPRS); Total scores range from 0-30 with higher scores indicating more progressed disease
Frequency of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) 52 weeks Safety and tolerability of AMX0035 in participants with PSP
Change in MDS-UPDRS Part II Score 52 weeks To evaluate the efficacy of AMX0035 on motor aspects of activities of daily living as measured on the Movement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-PDRS) Part II; Total scores range from 0-52 with lower scores indicating better function
