简要总结
Clinical trial rationale:
CNS is an ultra-rare (<1/1 million newborns), autosomal recessive disorder of bilirubin conjugation caused by mutation in the gene coding for uridine 5'-diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase (UGT1A1), that causes the accumulation of neurotoxic unconjugated bilirubin (UCB).
Reduction of UCB is managed with phenobarbital in mild CNS, and daily phototherapy in severe CNS.
There is no authorized curative medical treatment for CNS. Liver transplantation is currently the only curative treatment for severe CNS.
GNT0003 is a genetically modified recombinant (r) viral vector composed of the AAV8 viral capsid carrying the UGT1A1 transgene which aims to correct the dysfunction of the mutated gene by achieving durable expression of a functional copy of the affected gene.
Imlifidase (IgG-degrading enzyme) has demonstrated its efficacy in highly sensitized adult kidney transplant patients.
To give participants with pre-existing anti-AAV8 antibodies access to gene therapy treatments, this trial aims to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of GNT0003 following imlifidase pre-treatment in adult participants with severe CNS requiring daily phototherapy and presenting with pre-existing anti-AAV8 antibodies.
Primary objective: to assess efficacy of a single intravenous administration of GNT0003 following imlifidase pre-treatment in participants with severe CNS requiring phototherapy and pre-existing AAV8 antibodies
Secondary objective: to collect data on safety and tolerability of GNT0003 and imlifidase, efficacy of imlifidase, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile of GNT0003, and Quality of Life.
The trial will include 3 parts:
-
A baseline period for at least 3 months
-
A treatment period
-
A follow-up period:
-
Initial post-treatment follow-up over 48 weeks
-
Long-term follow-up for 4 additional years
This trial will be conducted in accordance with the International Conference on Harmonization Guideline for Good Clinical Practice and the Declaration of Helsinki. Participants must be consented using the approved Informed Consent Form before any procedures specified in the protocol are performed.
